GNPs have several excellent mechanical properties including high strength, a good young’s modulus, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, electronic shielding, etc. In this study, CF/GNP/Epoxy composites were manufactured using GNP weight ratios of 0.15 wt%, 0.3 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 0.7 wt% and 1 wt%. The composites were manufactured with a mechanical method (3-roll-mill). Tensile, impact and wear tests were performed according to ASTM standards D3039, D256 and D3181, respectively. The results show that the CF/GNP0.3wt%/Epoxy composites have good mechanical properties, e.g., tensile strength and impact and wear resistance. In this study, both carbon fabric and GNPs were used as reinforcements in the composites. The mechanical properties increased and weight loss decreased as the GNP content in the resin films was increased.

We investigated biomass, diatom species and fucoxanthin contents as cell growth, fatty acid and amino acid contents as nutritional composition of diatoms attached on plate to confirm effects of light emitting diodes (LEDs) due to block off natural light. In the single LED irradiation, biomass showed significantly higher to 30.0±6.48mg/m2 in white LED than that of others (P<0.05). The dominate diatom species was Navicula cancellata. Their lipid contents showed significantly higher to 112.9±19.23ug/mg dry matter (DM) in control than that of others LEDs. But eicosapetaenoic acid (EPA) contents showed significantly higher to 3.3±0.62ug/mg DM than others, but not significantly differed with natural control light treatment (P<0.05). And total protein contents are higher in control and blue LED light than that of others, but essential amino acid contents showed significantly higher to 3.2±4.8% in control (P<0.05). In mixing light with natural and LED light, biomass showed 2.6±0.22mg/m2 in blue LED (P<0.05). Fatty acids contents were not significantly differed with all treatments. Amino acid contents showed to 11.0±0.33ug/mg DM in white LED (P<0.05), but not significantly differed with others LED lights (P>0.05). Therefore, we could suggest that irradiation of blue LED in natural light very benefit to diatom culture for larvae of sea cucumber and abalone and do on.

The marine microalgae Chaetoceros calcitrans was cultured under a fluorescent lamp (CON) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of various wavelengths (blue, LB; red, LR; green, LG; white, LW); changes in growth, fucoxanthin, chlorophyll-a, amino acid and fatty acid profiles were investigated. LR-exposed cultures exhibited the highest specific growth rate (SGR) (0.34), whereas LG-exposed cultures showed the lowest SGR (0.26). After cultivation for 10 days, the maximum dry cell weight (g/L) of LR-exposed cultures was significantly higher than that of those exposed to other light conditions (LR≥ CON>LB≥LW≥LG). Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) levels were significantly higher in CON-exposed cultures compared to those exposed to LW (P<0.05), with no marked difference compared to those exposed to LB, LR and LG (P>0.05). The fucoxanthin content was highest in LB-exposed cultures (6.3µg/mL), whereas LW showed the lowest (3.6µg/mL; P<0.05). Chlorophyll-a content was highest in cultures exposed to LB compared to other light sources. These results suggest consistent differences in growth and biochemical composition after exposure to light of different wavelengths.

심층혼합처리공법에서 원지반과 개량재에 의해 형성되는 혼합처리토에 산업폐기물중 하나인 폐타이어와 기존 토목공사에서 섬유보강재로 사용되고 있는 강섬유를 혼합하여 보강재 및 개량재의 혼합비에 따른 개량체의 압축강도 특성을 파악하기위해 실내실험을 실시하였다. 개량재(시멘트, 시멘트계 고화재)의 경우는 건토중량에 대한 혼합비를 5%, 10%, 15%로 하였으며, 보강재(폐타이어, 강섬유)의 경우는 건토중량에 대한 혼합비를 0.5%, 1%, 2%로 하였다. 그 결과 개량재의 혼합비가 증가함에 따라 일축압축강도는 증가하였으며, 보강재를 첨가한 경우에는 폐타이어분말의 입자크기와 강섬유의 형상비가 작을수록 강도가 크게 나타났으며, 첨가량이 많아질수록 강도가 저하되는 경향이 나타났다.

This study aims to present the fundamental strategies for improving the Indoor Air Quality ( IAQ ) in newly unoccupied apartment units. The results of this study can be summarized as follows, The field survey of 160 newly unoccupied units with airtight doors and windows showed that the concentrations of HCHO and TVOC were higher than the standards. The emission rates of HCHO and TVOC were proportional to the height. The small chamber test of pollutant concentration for building materials showed that pollutants were emitted dominantly from the wood furnishings and adhesives.

HFC-134a는 냉매, 발포제 및 분사제 용도로 사용되며 국내에서는 자동차 에어컨 냉매로 주로 이용되고 있다. HFC-134a는 비이산화탄소(Non-CO2) 온실가스 중 하나로 GWP(global warming potentail, 온난화지수)가 4,300으로 매우 높아 HFC-134a 폐냉매 가스의 적정처리가 요구된다. HFC-134a 처리기술로는 직접 연소법(LNG 연소)과 Plasma 파괴법이 있으며 직접 연소법과 Plasma 파괴법 모두 초기 투자비용이 높고 높은 에너지(온도)가 필요하며, 동시에 처리 과정에서 발생되는 HF로 인한 장치 부식 등의 취약성을 지닌다. 특히 직접 연소법의 경우 분해를 위해 다량의 화석연료가 필요하여 분해 후 배출되는 온실가스 발생량이 높고, Plasma 파괴법의 경우 처리 가스 용량 증가 시 반응기의 크기가 증가함에 따라 Plasma의 밀도가 감소하여 파괴능력이 감소하는 문제점이 있다. 촉매분해법(열분해 및 가수분해)은 직접 연소법과 Plasma 파괴법과 비교하여 낮은 온도에서도 높은 분해효율을 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있으며, 분해로 형성되는 HF를 촉매로 고정할 수 있으나, 주기적인 촉매의 교체와 촉매의 공급단가에 의해 경제성이 크게 의존되는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 그러나 타 공법과 비교하여 매우 낮은 온도에서 운전되기 때문에 연료사용량 및 소비전력을 줄일 수 있는 기술로 평가받고 있다. 촉매열분해 기술은 반응조건(온도, 촉매량 및 공간속도 등)뿐만 아니라 촉매의 성능에 따라 분해효율에 차이를 보이므로, HFC-134a 분해 성능이 우수한 것으로 알려진 Al2O3에 Ni, Fe과 같은 금속을 담지하여 성능을 개선시키는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 촉매열분해 기술을 활용하여 HFC-134a 분해 특성을 파악하고 Ni, Fe, Cr 및 Co를 담지 특성에 따른 분해효율을 평가하고자 한다.
