2008년부터 시작된 국제유가의 급락으로 인한 국내 에너지기업들은 재정부 담이 가중되어 다양한 자원공급 포트폴리오를 구성하여 사업을 정상적으로 추진하는데 많은 어려움을 겪고 있다. 특히 해양에너지자원의 개발은 육상자원에 비하여 탐사, 시추, 생산단계에 소요되는 기간이 길고, 이에 수반되는 위험들이 많기 때문에 BP, Exxon, Chevron 등과 같은 국제석유회사들과 같이 다양한 측면에서 자원개발에 따른 위험을 분산 관리하는 기술과 체계가 필요하다. 그러나 국내 에너지기업들은 해양에너지 자원개발의 필요성과 중요성을 인식하고 있음에도 불구하고, 여전히 하류부분(Downstream) 위주의 산업구조를 형성하여 전형적인 자원빈국으로서의 한계에 직면해 있다. 따라서 국내 에너지기업들 은 상류부분(Upstream) 및 중류부분(Midstream) 단계로 사업영역을 확대하는데 단계별로 발생할 수 있는 다양한 위험을 최적화된 보험을 통하여 관리할 수 있는 역량이 부족하여 주도적으로 프로젝트를 운영하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 이 연구는 Operators, Duty Holder(Tier1), Integrated EPC Services(Tier2) 및 하도 급 OEM/Specialist providers(Tier3)로 연계된 해양에너지와 관련된 전 생애주기에 국내 조선해양플랜트기업 및 선박관리회사들이 단순히 인력 공급만 할 것이 아니라 새로운 형태의 부가가치를 창출할 수 있는 종합적인 서비스를 제공하는 데 필수적인 안정장치인 해양에너지 종합보험 중물적 손해의 위험관리와 관련된 약관에 대해서 보험이론, 국내외 판례 등을 중심으로 법적 검토를 진행하고, 2015 영국보험법 개정에 따른 사항 및 주요 적용범위의 명확화 등을 중심으로 개선방안을 제시하였다.

This study, for the first time, investigated the packaging requirements of in-package dielectric barrier discharge cold plasma treatment (DBD-CPT). The parameters determining packaging requirements include the internal oxygen concentration, headspace volume to sample volume ratio (HSR), direct or indirect treatment, and kind of packaging material. Grape tomato and mixed vegetables, composed of romaine lettuce, red cabbage, carrot with and without the inoculation with Salmonella, were subjected to DBD-CPT at 32.5 kV for 3 min. Increasing the oxygen concentration in the container from 5% to 90% did not influence Salmonella inactivation (p>0.05). Increasing the HSR of air packaging material from 54:1 to 522:1 increased Salmonella inhibition on grape tomato (p<0.05). Higher Salmonella inhibition was found in grape tomatoes in directly treated salads than in indirect-treated salads (p<0.05). The inactivation of indigenous mesophilic aerobic bacteria was exhibited higher when packaged with PE than with PET (p<0.05). Optimal package requirements were determined as HSR of 522:1, direct treatment, and uses of PE as packaging material for the microbial inactivation using in-package cold plasma treatment. DBD-CPT increased the water vapor permeability of all packaging materials (p<0.05), but did not change their tensile properties and transparency (p>0.05). Overall, DBD-CPT was found effective in decontaminating mixed vegetables, prepackaged with commercial packages, without affecting the tensile and optical properties of the packages. Furthermore, the HSR, the electrode-container distance and kind of packaging material were identified as the major packaging requirements affecting the microbial inactivation efficacy of in-packaged cold plasma treatment.

2015∼2017년까지 국내 해운 및 조선해양플랜트산업은 관련 기업들간의 치킨게임에서 시작된 경쟁 심화와 국제 유가 하락에 기인한 한계기업의 법정관리 및 파산의 많은 어려움을 겪고 있다. 따라서 국내 조선해양플랜트 기업들은 매출액 확대의 관점에서 비롯된 대량생산만으로 지속적인 성장을 할 수 없다는 한계를 절감하고, 이를 타개하기 위한 다양한 방편 중의 하나로 해양플랜트서비스산업으로 진출하고자 노력하고 있다. 그러나 몇몇 관련 기업들이 동 분야에 선제적으로 진출하고자 하는 강한 의지를 갖고 해외 프로젝트에 대한 해양플랜트 운영관리계약을 공격적으로 체결하고 있음에도 불구하고, 계약 중 발생할 수 있는 다양한 위험을 보험이라는 제도를 통하여 어떻게 위험을 관리할지에 대한 인식이 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 이 연구는 국내 조선해양플랜트 기업들이 건조 중심의 2차 산업에서 탈피하여 서비스 중심의 3차 산업인 해양플랜트 운영관리산업으로 적극적으로 진출하는데 필요한 위험관리의 선행적인 연구를 위하여 해양에너지 종합보험의 개요, 약관의 개발 배경 및 동향, 약관의 주요 내용을 중심으로 법적 검토를 진행하였다.

방사성폐기물 발생기관의 가용데이터를 기반으로 산출된 핵종재고량을 적용하여 예비안전성평가를 수행한 결과 처분안전성과 운영측면에서 많은 어려움이 예상됨을 확인하였다. 본 논문에서는 전체처분시설 예비안전성평가를 수행하였으며, 평가결과 성능목표치 초과핵종에 대해 방사능량이 큰 비중을 차지하는 단위포장물을 선별하고, 높은 표면선량률의 포장물을 처분대상에서 제외하는 방식으로 처분시설의 처분방사능량제한을 도입하였다. 처분방사능량제한은 안전기준 만족을 위한 처분시설별 인수기준과 처분기준 설정에 기초자료로 활용할 것이며, 경주 처분시설의 안전한 종합개발계획수립 및 처분시 설의 안전성 최적화를 위한 Safety Case 구축에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the current status relating to food packaging and design for status of small and medium food enterprises. A company survey was conducted from June to October, 2015 and targeted 1300 small and medium domestic food enterprises. Finally, a total of 1300 (recovery rate 100%) useable data were selected. Statistical analyses were performed on the data utilizing the SPSS PASW Statistics 18.0 for Windows, such as descriptive statistics and frequency analysis. According to the results, awareness and importance of food labeling were high, but performance of English inscription of product name was relatively low. The most important reason for food labeling was ‘providing correct information on food’ 910 (72.8%). Accordingly, a system which can provide the latest information by continuously monitoring mandatory disclosure requirements for types of foods in individual countries is needed.

Stable Isotope Analysis (SIA) of carbon and nitrogen is useful tool for the understanding functional roles of target organisms in biological interactions in the food web. Recently, mixing model based on SIA is frequently used to determine which of the potential food sources predominantly assimilated by consumers, however, application of model is often limited and difficult for non-expert users of software. In the present study, we suggest easy manual of R software and package SIAR with example data regarding selective feeding of crustaceans dominated freshwater zooplankton community. We collected SIA data from the experimental mesocosms set up at the littoral area of eutrophic Chodae Reservoir, and analyzed the dominant crustacean species main food sources among small sized particulate organic matters (POM, <50 μm), large sized POM (>50 μm), and attached POM using mixing model. From the results obtained by SIAR model, Daphnia galeata and Ostracoda mainly consumed small sized POM while Simocephalus vetulus consumed both small and large sized POM simultaneously. Copepods collected from the reservoir showed no preferences on various food items, but in the mesocosm tanks, main food sources for the copepods was attached POM rather than planktonic preys including rotifers. The results have suggested that their roles as grazers in food web of eutrophicated reservoirs are different, and S. vetulus is more efficient grazer on wide range of food items such as large colony of phytoplankton and cyanobacteria during water bloom period.

본 연구에서는 유리온실 경영비 절감을 위한 고효율 난방기술을 개발하기 위하여 지하수열원 히트펌프, 알루미늄 다겹보온커튼, 근권부 국소난방장치를 조합한 난방 패키지 모델을 구성하고 파프리카 재배 벤로형 유리온실에 적용 시험을 수행하였다. 적용효과 분석을 위하여 관행 경유온수보일러와 일반 보온커튼을 설치한 대조구 온실과 비교시험을 통해 온실환경, 난방비용, 작물생육 등을 검토하였다. 알루미늄 다겹보온커튼과 일반 부직포 보온커튼을 설치한 온실에 대한 무가온 조건에서의 야간 온도 비교시험에서 알루미늄 다겹보온커튼 설치 온실의 온도가 일반 부직포 보온커튼 설치 온실에 비해 평균 2.2oC 더 높게 유지됨을 확인하였다. 또한 근권부 국소 난방장치를 설치한 온실에서 미설치 온실에 비해 야간 난방 중의 베드내부 근권온도가 4.7oC 더 높게 유지됨을 확인하였다. 난방패키지를 구성하는 지하수열원 히트펌프의 난방성능을 분석한 결과 지하수를 직접 열원으로 이용하는 시스템 특성상 난방성능계수는 평균 3.7로 비 교적 높게 나타났다. 난방패키지를 적용한 처리구 온실과 관행 난방의 대조구 온실에 대하여 연료소비량을 계 측한 결과 10a(1,000m2)당 대조구 온실은 경유 14,071L, 전력 364kWh를 소비하였고, 처리구는 전력 35,082kWh 를 소비하여 난방비용 기준으로 대조구 온실의 비용 절감율은 87%로 나타났다. 처리구 및 대조구 온실의 작물 생육을 비교한 결과 초장과 엽록소 함량에서 차이가 발생하였으나 두 온실의 난방온도가 거의 동일하므로 전체적인 생육은 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 분석되었다. 원예시설의 난방에너지 절감효과를 극대화하기 위해서는 본 연구의 난방패키지를 구성하는 개별 기술뿐 아니라 이미 개발된 고효율 공조기 이용기술, 보온성 향상기술, 온도 관리 기술 등을 지역, 시설, 작목, 작형 등에 최적화하여 조합할 수 있는 추가적 패키지 모델의 개발 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.

Quality changes of carrots thermally processed in a large size (5 kg) retort pouch during 52 weeks of storage were investigated under different packaging methods and package shapes. To improve the efficiency of thermal processing (121.1oC, 0.15 MPa), the carrot (i.e., solid) and the broth (i.e., liquid) of the carrot soup were separately packed and sterilized. The quality changes of carrot packed without liquid were compared with those with liquid. Two different package shapes such as rectangular parallelepiped and cube were also evaluated to figure out the efficiency of the heat penetration rate for a large-sized pouch. The TTT (F0-values = 6) were 27, 54, and 114 min from the rectangular parallelepiped, cube, and solid/liquid mixed groups, respectively. In the mixed groups, the hardness and chewiness of solids (carrot) were significantly smaller than those measured in the other groups as TTT increased. Carrots treated in the rectangular parallelepiped shape showed a significantly higher texture than the cube shape. The CV of hardness and chewiness in the rectangular parallelepiped and the cube shape were calculated as 7.56 and 47.19, and 29.16 and 65.28, respectively. This demonstrated that a more uniform quality can be obtained from the rectangular parallelepiped shape.

Quality changes of carrots thermally processed in a large size (5 kg) retort pouch during 52 weeks of storage period were investigated upon different packaging methods and package shapes. To improve the efficiency of thermal processing (121.1°C, 0.15 MPa), the carrot (i.e., solid) and the broth (i.e., liquid) of carrot soup were separately packed and sterilized. The quality changes of carrot packed without liquid were compared with those with liquid. Two different package shapes such as rectangular parallelepiped and cube were also evaluate to figure out the efficiency of the heat penetration rate for the large size of pouch. The location of cold points and the total thermal processing time (TTT) were different upon the treatment. Fo-values, satisfying the TTT to at least 6 min, were 27, 54, and 114 min from the rectangular parallelepiped, cube and solid/liquid mixed group, respectively. In the mixed groups, the hardness and chewiness of solids (carrot) was significantly smaller than that measured in the other groups as TTT increased. Carrots treated in the rectangular parallelepiped shape showed a significantly higher texture than the cube shape for both immediately after the thermal treatment and during the storage period. Coefficient of variation (CV), which indicates the quality variation within the same treatment, of texture properties obtained from the outside and the center of the sample were compared to evaluate the quality variation within the same treatment. The CV of hardness and chewiness of the rectangular parallelepiped and the cube shape were calculated 7.56 and 47.19, and 29.16 and 65.28, respectively. This demonstrated that more uniform quality could be expected from the thermal treatment in the rectangular parallelepiped shape

Effects of dielectric barrier discharge atmospheric cold plasma (DACP) treatment on the inhibition of Salmonella and the storability of grape tomato were investigated. Grape tomatoes, with or without inoculation with a cocktail of three strains of Salmonella (~8 log CFU/g tomato), were packaged in a polyethylene terephthalate commercial clamshell container and cold plasma-treated at 35 kVat 1.1 kHz for 3 min using an DACP treatment system equipped with a pin-type high-voltage electrode. DACP treatment resulted in ~1 log CFU/tomato reduction of Salmonella, irrespectively of the size of container (316, 595vs. 758 cm3), the number of grape tomatoes in the container (3, 7, vs. 11), and the position of the tomato in the container(P > 0.05).Rolling integrated during treatment significantly increased the Salmonella reduction rates to 3.1±0.3 and 3.3±0.8 log CFU/tomato in the single-layer and double-layer configurations of the tomato samples in the container (992 cm3), respectively. Rolling-adopted DACP initially reduced the number of total mesophilic aerobes and yeast and molds in the double layer configuration of tomato samples by 1.3±0.3 and 1.5±0.2 log CFU/tomato, respectively, without altering the color and firmness of the tomatoes. The growth of Salmonella, total aerobes, and yeast and molds on DACP-treated grape tomatoes was effectively prevented during storage at 10 °C. DACP treatment did not influence the tomato color index (a*/b*), firmness, weight loss, pH, total soluble solid content, and lycopene concentration of grape tomatoes at 10 and 25 °C (P> 0.05). DACP treatment holds promise as a post-packaging process for improving microbial safety against Salmonella and storability of fresh grape tomatoes.

A data simulator and reduction package for the Devasthal Optical Telescope Integral Field Spectro- graph (DOTIFS) has been developed. Since data reduction for the Integral Field Spectrograph (IFS) requires complicated procedures due to the complex nature of the integral spectrograph, common reduc- tion procedures are usually not directly applicable for such an instrument. Therefore, the development of an optimized package for the DOTIFS is required. The data simulator observes artificial object and simulates CCD images for the instrument considering various effects; e.g. atmosphere, sky background, transmission, spectrograph optics aberration, and detector noise. The data reduction package has been developed based on the outcomes from the DOTIFS data simulator. The reduction package includes the entire processes for the reduction; pre-processing, at-fielding, and sky subtraction. It generates 3D data cubes as a final product, which users can use for science directly.
