The permanent shutdown of NPPs (nuclear power plants) has been growing steadily around the world. Also, permanent shutdown of old NPPs has been determined following to Kori-1 and Wolsong-1 in the Korea. Among issues of decommissioning of NPPs, especially, the management of radioactive waste is the most sensitive issue. According to IAEA, a large volume of radioactive concrete waste would be generated from decommissioning of nuclear facilities. Also, EC (European commission) expected that about 500 million tons of concrete will be produced in Europe by 2060 due to decommissioning of NPPs. It is known that the radioactive concrete consists of surface contaminated concrete and activated concrete. So, if contaminants from radioactive concretes can be removed using specific technologies, volume reduction of concrete can be achieved. Since there is no experience of decommissioning of NPPs in Korea, it is important to analyze previous cases. In this study, decontamination of radioactive concrete is analyzed through previous studies. Decontamination technologies of concrete are composed of mechanical methods, chemical methods, and thermal methods. Mechanical methods are physical technologies separating contaminants from concrete using scabbling, milling, and vacuum cleaning. In chemical methods, contaminants were removed from concrete using an oxidizing agent/reducing agent, acid/base. Thermal methods are removal technologies using lasers, microwaves, and pulsed power discharge. Some methods still have practical use cases, and further research is needed on the issue of generation of secondary waste. Review on the experience of decontamination of concrete show that waste of concrete generated during decommissioning of NPPs are expected to have effect of large volume reduction. However, many studies are needed because secondary waste and decontamination cost is sensitive issue of concrete generated during decommissioning of NPPs. In order to successful decommissioning of NPPs in Korea, various research of decontamination of concrete are need
본 연구는 기구등에 오염된 E. coli와 S. aureus를 제어 하기 위해 이산화염소의 농도별 접촉시간에 따른 살균소 독력을 평가하여 살균예측모델을 개발하였다. E. coli의 경우 초기균수가 9.13 log CFU/mL이었고, 청정조건에서 5 ppm으로 1분, 3분, 5분 처리한 결과 각각 0.04, 0.07, 0.10 log CFU/mL의 감소값을 나타내었다. 20 ppm을 처리한 결 과 각각 0.74, 0.79, 0.84 log CFU/mL의 감소값을 나타내었다. 또한 CCD에 의한 최대농도 35 ppm으로 처리한 결과 각각 2.49, 2.70, 3.65 log CFU/mL의 감소값을 나타내었다. S. aureus의 경우 초기균수가 8.70 log CFU/mL이었고, 청정조건에서 5 ppm으로 1분, 3분, 5분 처리한 결과 각각 0.14, 0.28, 0.36 log CFU/mL의 감소값을 나타내었다. 20 ppm을 처리한 결과 각각 0.66, 0.79, 0.90 log CFU/mL의 감소값을 나타내었다. 또한 CCD에 의한 최대농도 35 ppm 으로 처리한 결과 각각 4.59, 5.25, 5.81 log CFU/mL의 감소값을 나타내었다. 따라서 이산화염소의 살균소독력 평 가결과는 E. coli와 S. aureus에 대하여 식품의약품안전처 살균소독력 기준에 모두 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 살균 예측모델의 경우, R2값이 모두 0.98 이상으로 두 균주에 대해 모두 높은 적합성을 보였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 이산화염소의 살균예측모델을 식품산업 적용을 위한 기초자 료로 활용함으로써 E. coli와 S. aureus를 적절한 농도와 접촉시간으로 제어할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
Shelter that communication equipment and on-equipment material are mounted on is transported by airplane or vehicle, it has a function such as waterproof and shielding EMI. When the shelter is transported by car or helicopter, it is shocked by vibration and crash with the ground. So, three skids are attached to bottom of the shelter to reduce the shock. To confirm the durability of the structure of shelter, parallel drop and rotating drop test were done in accordance with KDS 0000-0000. However, the damage was discovered in the shelter. So, stiffening plate was added to skid and panel of partition wall to obtain durability and changed the shape of rubber buffer. In this paper, the cause of deformation and damage in the shelter was analyzed and improved shape through the structural analysis was verified.
Effects of Oplopanax elatus have known to various pharmaceutical therapies. However, chemical prosperities in the plant are rarely investigated. In order to detect biological activity, we evaluated the antioxidant activity of five fractions from methanolic extracts in each part of O. elatus. Also, contents of polyphenols and polysaccharides were measured. Five fractions were of sub-fractions using n-hexane, ethyl-acetate, n-butanol, and water from methanolic extracts. Ethylacetate and n-butanol fractions from stem and root exhibited strong antioxidant activity and high total phenolics content. On the HPLC analysis, ten free phenolics, including p-hydroxybenzoic acid, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, syringic acid, p-cou maric acid, ferulic acid, naringin, hesperidin, quercetin and trans-cinnamic acid, were identified from the fractions and were shown to different quantitative proportions. Furthermore, ethylacetate and n-butanol fraction had the highest amount of chlorogenic acids, one of the cinnamic acid derivatives possessing pharmacological properties. These results indicated that the fractions of O. elatus, as well as methanolic extracts, could be used as natural antioxidative ingredients.
