Recently air pollution is becoming a global environment issue. Especially, the smoke from engines and boiler systems, which burn fossil fuels directly, is an extremely serious issue. For this reason, IMO is tightening regulations for the control of NOx and SOx. Therefore, in this study, the NOx reduction effect of emulsified oil mixed with 10% of water was tested after applying the emulsified oil to an industrial boiler burner using Bunker-C oil. The study showed that the exhaust gas oxygen concentration of emulsified oil was nearly 1.3% high and this was identified by the effect of dissolved oxygen contained in water. Also, based on the standard oxygen concentration(4%), the average and maximum NOx reduction rates were 28.53% and 30.23% respectively, which means the reduction efficiency was very high.

In this study, the characteristics of emulsified fuel were studied. The emulsified fuel which was composed of water and diesel was manufactured by using homogenizer and ultrasonic generator. The more the percentage of water contents increases, the more the density increases to the emulsified fuel. However, the viscosity increased in the 60% of water contents and decreased in the 70% of water contents because the O/W type was formed. The 3 minutes's ultrasonic waves during the irradiation time was appropriate of 16,000 rpm. And the energy density of ultrasonic waves was 87.5J/g. The emulsion stability has improved in the lower temperature, the lower percentage of water contents, and the most stable emulsion state was obtained from 20%(w/w) of water contents. Also, the emulsion stability was related to the HLB values of emulsifiers. Especially, the HLB values of emulsifier were appropriate from 4 to 7 values.

에멀젼형 절삭유(Caltex, Trusol) 수용액을 공칭 세공크기가 0.22μm 인 Millipore사의 GVHP 막과 0.2μm인 SUS 관형막(Mott 사)이 설치된 dead-end 및 십자형흐름 정밀여과 시스템으로 각각 분리하였다. 오일입자의 분포는 0.07 내지 0.22μm의 분포이었다. 투과유속을 예측하기 위하여 cake 여과모델 (CFM)과 standard pore blocking 모델(SPBM)을 적용하였다. Dead-end 시스템에서 0.01 vol% 절삭유 수용액을 400 rpm으로 교반시켜 투과시킬 경우, 100 kPa 이하에서는 CFM 이 투과유곡을 잘 나타내었으나, 150 kPa 이상에서는 SPBM을 적용할 수 있었다. 운전압력을 60에서 200 kPa로 갑자기 증가시키면 분리막 표면에 형성된 오일층이 파괴되고, 다시 60 kPa로 감소시킬 때 반복하여 오일층이 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. 투과기구가 CFM에서 SPBM 으로 전환되는 이른바 임계압력을 추정하였으며, dead-end system에서는 약 100 kPa이었다. Reynolds 수가 7080인 십자형흐름 시스템에서 농도를 0.01에서 0.03 vol%로 증가시키면 입계압력이 약 100에서 150 kPa로 증가하였다.

In this paper, Results of mock-up test for mitigating carbonation of high volume mineral admixture concrete by spreading waste cooking oil. Concrete incorporating 60% of BS and 30% of FA with the size of 900×600×200 are discussed. Denatured Silicate paint is also applied to compare the performance. Test results indicate that the application of ERCO and DSP enhance carbonation resistance.

While carrying out a series of study for improving the durability of High Volume Admixture Concrete using the ERCO, we found that the resistance of freezing and thawing declined due to the decrease of air amount in concrete when using the ERCO. In order to solve the problem, we carried out an experiment using the DEM. As a result of that, it did not affect the basic characteristic of concrete, and the problem of decreasing air amount caused by using the ERCO is also considered to be solved by securing the target air amount.

This study investigates the effect of emulsified refined cooking oil (ERCO) on the fundamental properties of cement paste, and their results are compared with that of shrinkage reducing admixture (SR). Results showed that ERCO decreased early strength, but retained the strength at the later age of 28 days, slightly higher than pure OPC
