비다공성막을 통한 투과성분의 투과속도와 투과 조성을 on-line방식으로 측정할수 있는 장치를 개발하였다. 가교폴리비닐알콜막을 통한 물의 투과증발실험을 행하여 이 장치의 효용성을 확인하였다. 투과증발실험에서 투과가 정상상태에 도달하는데 15분미만의 시간이 걸렸으며 측정을 20분이내에 마칠 수가 있었다. 또한 측정된 투과속도 정확성과 신뢰도를 확인하기 위해서 종래의 방법대로 액체질소에 의해 투과물을 일정시간 응축시켜 투과속도를 동시에 측정하여 이를 장치의 record에 표시된 투과속도와 비교한 결과 그 오차가 pm2% 이내로 일치하였다. 측정된 시간에 따른 투과속도 곡선으로 부터 3가지 종류의 확산계수 Dslope, D1/2, Dt를 구하였고 이들이 문헌치와 비교한 결과 비교적 일치함을 보였다. 또한 on-line 방식으로 모든 측정이 이루어지므로 종래 방법, 즉 투과물 응축, 가열, 무게측정과정 등에서 발생할 수 있는 실험오차를 줄일수 있기 때문에 정확한 투과특성을 얻을 수가 있다. 본 연구에서 개발한 투과 장치를 사용하여 액체상태의 feed 투과를 효과적으로 분석할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The present study was carried out to produce in vitro fertilized embryos with immature follicular oocytes collected by transvaginal aspiration from Holstein cows. A simple aspiration apparatus consists of two stainless steel tubes, an inner tube (needle holder; 1.2cmdiameter, 55cm long) and an outer tube (1.5cm diameter, 4Scm long), and a hand-operated vacuum pump was used. Under epidural anesthesia, the needle guide was passed into the vagina of the cow to a point next to the cervix. An ovary was placed against the wall of the vagina over the end of the aspiration needle by rectal manipulation. As the needlepassed into the ovary, an assistant was asked to apply vacuum(l00mrnHg) and the ovary was manipulated back and forth in all directions over the needle. When all sites of the ovary was aspirated, the needle was withdrawn and the needle guide was moved to the other side of ovary and the procedure was repeated. When the oocyte aspiration procedure was finished, collected fluid was transported to laboratory. Oocytes surrounded with at least 1 layer of cumulus cells were matured, fertilized and cultured in vitro. The results were as follows; Ninety seven oocytes were collected by transvaginal aspiration from seventeen Holstein cows(5.7 /head). The number of oocytes surrounded with at least 1 layer of cumulus cells were 60(61.9%). Following in vitro maturation, fertilization and culture, the cleavage and development rate to morula+blastocyst were 83.3% and 30.0%, respectively. From this study, transferable in vitro fertilized embryos could be produced with imma- ture follicular oocytes collected by transvaginal aspiration from Holstein cows using a simple aspiration apparatus

먼지는 일반적으로 입자크기가 10μm 이상의 강하 먼지와 10μm 이하의 부유먼지로 구분하며, 이들의 먼지는 대기중에서 인간이나 동.식물에 주로 영향을 준다. 입자크기 범위가 0.1~10μm 사이의 부유먼지는 주로 산업공정에서 연료의 연소 또는 고체상 물질의 분쇄 및 수송공정 등에서 주로 발생되며, 입자크기가 2.5μm인 것들은 대기중에서 황산화성 미세먼지와 질산화성 미세먼지로 전환되어 가시도(visibility)에도 큰 영향을 미친다. 대기중에 부유된 먼지중에서 8μm 이하는 호흡시 호흡기로 유입되는 입자크기로써, 입자크기가 6.0μm 이하인 것은 약 10% 정도가 인간의 폐내로 유입되고, 4.0μm 이하인 것은 30%, 2.0μm 이하인 것은 약 99%가 폐(lung)에 유입되어 폐에 침착된다고 보고하였다. 앞으로 산업발전이 계속됨에 따라서 먼지의 배출량이 계속 증가할 것이며, 이로 인해 먼지에 의한 대기오염이 심각해질 뿐만 아니라 인간에 미치는 피해도 심각해질 것으로 예측된다.

The aim in this study was to remove Cl−, which can be problematic in the recycling of bottom ash, by identifying the optimum operating conditions for a soil electrolysis apparatus with spiral paddles and to use these as the base data in removing contaminants from various polluted soils using electrolysis. Unprocessed bottom ash collected from the openair storage yard at thermoelectric power plant H in Gyeong sang nam - do Province was used as the experimental material. The experimental methodology was to identify the optimum operating conditions to remove Cl− contained in the bottom ash using the following variables: use or not of spiral paddles, application or not of electrolysis, change of concentration of the electrolyte solution, electrolysis application time, and the voltage level during electrolysis. From the results, the highest removal efficiency of 91.4% was shown under the following conditions: use of the spiral paddles, use of 0.3% NaOH electrolyte solution, 20 min of electrolysis; and a voltage level of 5 V during electrolysis. It is evident that application of the soil electrolysis apparatus for removal of Cl− from bottom ash could be valuableas base data for purification of polluted soils in the future.

This study aimed to remove organic matter and heavy metals that could affect the recycling of soils contaminated by heavy metals, by means of electrolysis, carried out simultaneously with the leaching of the soil. To ensure better experimental equipment, a soil electrolysis apparatus, equipped with spiral paddles, was used to agitate the heavy-metal-contaminated soil effectively. The heavy-metal-contaminated soil was electrolyzed by varying the voltage to 5 V(Condition 1), 15 V(Condition 2), and 20 V(Condition 3), under the optimal operating conditions of the electrolysis apparatus, as determined through previous studies. The results showed that the pH of the electrolyte solution and the heavy-metal-contaminated soil, after electrolysis, tended to decrease with an increase in voltage. The highest removal efficiencies of TOC and CODCr were 18.8% and 29.1%, 38.8% and 4.2%, and 33.3% and 50.0%, under conditions 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Heavy metals such as Cd and As were not detected in this experiment. The removal efficiencies of Cu, Pb and Cr were 4.7%, 8.3% and 2.1%, respectively, under Condition 1, while they were 42.9%, 15.2% and 22.1%, respectively, under Condition 2, and 4.7%, 23.0%, and 24.9%, respectively, under Condition 3. These results suggest that varying the voltage with the soil electrolysis apparatus for removing contaminants for the recycling of heavy-metal-contaminated soil allows the selective removal of contaminants. Therefore, the results of this study can be valuable as basic data for future studies on soil remediation.

전 세계적으로 에너지 수요증가와 유가 불안정 현상이 지속됨에 따라 이를 대체할 방안으로 신재생에너지 사용에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며 신재생 에너지의 수요가 늘어날 것으로 예측된다. 우리나라는 신재생에너지 공급의무화 제도(Renewable & Portfolio Standards; RPS)를 2012년부터 도입하여 50만kW 이상의 발전소는 총 발전량에 대한 신재생에너지를 사용한 전력공급율을 2012년 2%를 시작으로 2024년까지 10%로 실시할 계획이다. 최근 RPS 의무이행자인 발전사들의 신재생에너지발전원 중 바이오 비율이 70%에 이르며 이는 바이오매스 발전이 투자비 및 연료구매 비용이 낮고 운영효율성이 높아 RPS 이행이 쉽기 때문이다. 하지만 바이오매스로의 쏠림현상은 국내 목재시장의 유통구조에 악영향을 미치고 있으며 바이오매스발전 급증으로 폐목재 수요도 동반 증가하면서 재활용 가능한 목재까지 연료로 사용되고 있는 실정이다. 최근 팜오일 바이오매스는 인도네시아 산업을 이끌 잠재력 있는 자산으로 대두되어 왔으며, 2013년 기준 1억 4,200만 톤의 팜오일과 이에 따른 6,654만톤의 팜 부산물이 생산되고 있어 이를 연료화시 국내에서 거론되고 있는 바이오매스 문제를 해결할 수 있는 신재생에너지원으로써 확보가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서 대상으로 하는 EFB는 팜오일 생산과정에서 발생되어 일부분만 비료로 사용되고 처리되지 못해 야적되어 있는 것을 사용하였다. 3ton/day급 Pilot급 일체형 다단건조 탄화기를 사용하여 고열량인 EFB(저위발열량 : 4,320 kcal/kg)를 반탄화 고형연료로 생산하기 위해 반탄화 온도(200~300℃)와 시간(30~60분)을 고려하여 고형연료 생산량 및 발열량에 미치는 영향에 대하여 검토하였다. 반탄화 온도 변화에 따라 EFB의 저열량휘발성분의 감소와 탄소함량의 증가로 발열량(5,150 kcal/kg)이 증가하는 경향을 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구로 최적 EFB 반탄화 고형연료 생산인자를 도출함에 따라 경쟁력 있는 바이오매스 신재생에너지로 확보 될 것으로 전망된다.

The final goal of this research is to develop a miniaturized botanical biofilter using a wick-typed automatic humidifier for stabilizing soil moisture content (SMC) and purifying indoor air pollutants by the biofilter. This new biofilter equipped with wick-typed automatic humidifier was manufactured as more compacted design removing an absorption tower-typed humidifier compared with the previous big-sized biofilter made in 2015. This study was performed to compare changes of SMCs among floors depending on the number of wicks installed on the humidifier within the novel biofilter, and to compare changes of SMCs and plant growth parameters before and after planting Spathiphyllum wallisii ‘Mauna Loa’ on the biofilter. SMCs among floors depending on the number of wicks were similar, and all regression lines of SMCs showed almost horizontal lines because of long-term stability on SMCs. Comparing plant growth parameters of S. wallisii ‘Mauna Loa’ before planting and at 30 days after planting on the biofilter, all growth parameters were not statistically significant. Thus, SMCs of the biofilter were more stabilized using this humidifying appar

It is known that lowering of peak temperature of flame reduces NOx emission in combustion process. Low oxygenconcentration of diluted combustion air reduces peak flame temperature, but makes flame unstable. So increasing oftemperature of reactants is needed to enhance flame stability. Mixing of high temperature combustion gas with combustionair makes low oxygen concentration and increases air temperature simultaneously. Low oxygen concentration ofcombustion air reduces peak temperature of flame and increased air temperature makes flame stable by enhancement ofcombustion reaction. Special apparatus for recirculation of high temperature combustion gas should be needed, becausegeneral blower cannot be used to return the gas of almost 1,000oC. Air jet type recirculation apparatus has been developedand installed in a commercial scale of 7.2ton/day incinerator and estimated. Oxygen concentration and temperature ofair mixed with inhaled high temperature combustion gas by the apparatus are 16.24~17.78%, 384~512oC, respectively,in a steady state of incineration.

In order to solve this problem safety of bridge lifting apparatus using flow control system was evaluated. As a result, the load of each supports for bridge upper structure is measured at the range of 1,098 ~ 2,362 kN and lifting displacement uncertainty was within 0.5 mm observing not any cracks.

This paper describes the performance of the module-type drying apparatus for the composting of a food waste. The drying apparatus mainly consists of a screw-type food waste agitator, an air exhaust blower, a heat supply tube and a heat source. Two different discharging flow conditions of the drying apparatus, 4 and 5 m3/min, are introduced. Partly dried by-products after six hours drying operation in the drying apparatus is obtained while drying temperature keeps constant of 60oC. It is noted that the by-products needs to sufficient decay period for the composting. Deodorizing apparatus having a zigzag flow and a nozzle, which is connected to the drying apparatus, is also designed to enhance the removing performance of the odor. Throughout experimental measurements, time to the drying temperature of 60oC near the screw-type food waste agitator is shortened as discharging flow rate of the system decreases. The moisture content decreases to 50 percent after operation for 4 hours. Furthermore, the odor of the food waste is satisfied with the environment exhaust standard through the deodorizing apparatus.

최근 몇 년간 발생한 대형 화재사고의 경우 특수구조물에 대한 화재가 많으며 화재의 피해가 커진 경우 공통적으로 초기 진압에 어려움이 있었고, 적절한 방재작업을 수행할 장비의 부재가 원인으로 분석된 사례가 많았다. 이와 같은 특수구조물의 화재에 있어서 화재 진압을 위한 접근성이 용이하고 외부에서 화원으로 직접 방수 할 수 있는 기능을 갖춘 특수 방재장비의 도입 및 기술개발의 요구가 컸다. 이에 따라 우리나라의 산업형태에 따른 도시구조, 건축구조 등에 적합하고 기존의 유사 외국 기술이 갖고 있는 기술적 한계점을 극복한 “한국형 원격조정 파괴방수차”를 개발이 요구되었다. 본 연구에서는 목조건물, 문화재, 샌드위치 판넬 구조의 공장 및 창고, 컨테이너 Box, 항공기, 철도차량 등 특수목적 구조물의 화재 발생시 구조물의 외부를 국소파괴하고 내부로 방수노즐을 삽입 후 다량의 물 또는 폼 소화액을 방수하여 효과적인 초기 진압을 수행할 수 있는 소방장비에 대해 원격조정 굴절 붐 구조를 갖는 파괴방수차량의 국산화 설계기술, 제조기술, 하이브리드 타입 파괴방수 모듈의 설계/제작을 통한 굴절 붐 방수탑 통합 기술에 대해 연구하였다. 또한, IT기술을 접목한 노즐 모듈의 자동이송 및 아웃트리거 자동 셋팅 시스템 기술과 설계의 전 과정에 걸쳐 수치해석을 통한 설계검증 기술 그리고 시제품에 대해 자체 평가기준에 따른 성능평가에 대해 연구하였다.

The sludge flotation/thickening apparatus equipped a micro-bubble generating pump was used to investigate micro-bubble generating properties on operational parameters. We evaluated micro-bubble generating properties as results to be operated the apparatus by operational parameters which are pump discharge pressure, air/water ratio(A/W ratio), air flow rate, and water flow rate. Micro-bubble generating efficiencies in pumps without recycling flow and with 50% of recycling flow was found to be very efficient on optimum A/W ratio from 1.06 to 3.62% and optimum A/W ratio from 1.05 to 4.06%, respectively. In condition of 3.6% of A/W ratio, we showed that the apparatus could be generated 36,000 ppm of micro-bubble concentration to be optimum treatment efficiency in sludge thickening process.

To study the function and structure of Golgi apparatus in the spermiogenesis of long-fingered bat (Miniopterus schreibersi fuliginosus), the testis obtained from adult bat was treated with the prolonged osmification or fixed with ferrocyanide reduced osmium. golgi apparatus was oval shape in early Golgi phase, and was composed of cortex and medullar enclosing acrosome in mid Golgi phase. The vesicles of crescent shape Golgi apparatus were closed or fused with small or large vesicles at the periphery of acrosome. Golgi apparatus moved behing the acrosome face in cap phase, but the Golgi apparatus was still active. According to this, Golgi apparatus appears to be involved in the formation of acrosome and sperm tail. Transfer of materials from Golgi to acrosme seems to be carried out not only by fusion of large vesicles with acrosomal vesicles but also by detachment of coated vesicle from various cisternae of Golgi fusing with acrosomal vesicle.

To find heavy metal-specific effects on the photosynthetic apparatus of higher plants, we investigated effects of CuCl_2, HgCl_2 and ZnCl_2 on electron transport activity and chlorophyll fluorescence induction kinetics of chloroplasts isolated from barley seedlings. Effects on some related processes such as germination, growth and photosynthetic pigments of the test plants were also studied. Germination and growth rate were inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner by these metals. Mercury was shown to be the most potent inhibitor of germination, growth and biosynthesis of photosynthetic pigments of barley plants. In the inhibition of electron transport activity, quantum yield of PSⅡ, and chlorophyll fluorescence induction kinetics of chloroplasts isolated from barley seedlings, mercury chloride showed more pronounced effects than other two metals. Contrary to the effects of other two metals, mercury chloride increased variable fluorescence significantly and abolished qE in the fluorescence induction kinetics from broken chloroplasts of barley seedlings. This increase in variable fluorescence is due to the inhibition of the electron transport chain after PSⅡ and the following dark reactions. The inhibition of qE could be attributed to the interruption of pH formation and de-epoxidation o1 violaxathin to zeaxanthin to thylakoids by mercury. This unique effect of mercury on chlorophyll fluorescence induction pattern could be used as a good indicator for testing the presence and/or the concentration of mercury in the samples contaminated with heavy metals
