본 연구에서는 Water Gas Shift (WGS) 반응이 일어나는 분리막 반응기 (MR) 대상공정에 대해서 동적모사 (dynamic simulation)를 실시하고 시간과 위치에 따른 온도 및 수소 농도 변화 등을 살펴보았다. 모사 결과에 의하면 도입부에서 반경방향으로의 수소 농도, 수소 분압 및 온도차가 가장 컸으며 출구에서 가장 작았다. 또한, 수소분압의 차이가 가장 큰 도입부에서 수소의 flux가 가장 크게 나타나며 출구에서 일산화탄소의 전환률은 0.65였다.

The Stockholm Convention was adopted in Sweden in 2001 to protect human health and the environment, including Persistent Organic Pollutants Rotors, such as toxic and bioaccumulative. Currently, there are 28 kinds of materials. This prohibits and limits the production, use, and manufacture of the product. Korea is a party to the Convention and it is necessary to prepare management and treatment plan to cope with POPs trends. In the text, we have discussed HCBD materials. HCBD belongs to halogenated aliphatic unsaturated hydrocarbons. It is a toxic, organic mixture of bioaccumulation. A study on the treatment of waste containing HCBD substance, We decided to treat the waste containing HCBD thermally. So six samples were selected. Waste water treatment sludge, rubber plate, insecticide, tarpaulin, tire rubber, mixed sample. The tire rubber injected HCBD as a technical sample. HCBD analysis showed that 59.345 ~ 18,238.355 ug/kg was detected. For the thermal treatment, we analyzed element. As a result of thermogravimetric analysis, the weight change due to the decomposition of the material started at 200℃. The material decomposition was completed within 800℃. The thermal treatment was performed on a Lab-scale (1kg/hr). After exhaust gas analysis result, HCBD was detected at 0.01 to 0.09 ug/kg. The decomposition rate is estimated to be 99.848 ~ 99.999%. As a result of dioxin analysis in the exhaust gas, the highest concentration was found in the tarpaulins and the emission limit was exceeded. The concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn in the residues were very low. Considering the decomposition rate of HCBD containing wastes, incineration treatment at 2 ton/hr or more is considered to be possible. And unintentional persistent organic pollutants such as dioxins in the exhaust gas. Therefore, it is considered safe to operate the incineration temperature at more than 1100℃.

Persistent organic pollutants are highly toxic, stay in the environment for a long time, accumulate in the body according to the food chain, and cause damage not only to the area where they occur but also to other areas beyond the border. Parties to the Convention, as well as Korea, are obliged to carry out various efforts to control, reduce or eliminate sources of POPs in accordance with the national implementation plan. In addition, national efforts to limit the production, distribution and use of persistent organic pollutants and the current state of domestic pollution and emissions should be submitted every five years. A flame retardant is a polymeric material with a property that is easy to burn, and it lowers the ignition point by adding a compound having a large flame retarding effect such as halogen, phosphorus, and a nitrogen metal compound. Among them, chlorine-based flame retardants classified as halogen-based are used for suppressing ignition of combustible organic materials including plastics, furniture, textiles, clothing, and electronic products. It is also used as an alternative to brominated flame retardants, causing mutations in carcinogenic substances, hormone destruction, and nervous system damage. In the case of waste containing chlorine-based flame retardants in Korea, the methods and standards for disposal of waste are not specified. The highest SCCP values were 4,253.09 mg/kg for polyurethane foam, 628.29 mg/kg for mobile phone case and 341.91 mg/kg for flame retardant rubber sheet. In the case of car seats no SCCPs were detected, and TCEP was detected at 512. 66 mg/kg, exceeding the EU limit of 5 mg/kg. However, other chlorinated flame retardants TDCP and TDCPP were not detected in all samples.

Annex A and Annex B of the Stockholm Convention define POPs as unintentional releases to Annex C, as well as organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls and hexachlorobenzen which are intentionally produced and used. These pesticides are very stable in the atmosphere due to insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, etc., and are likely to accumulate in living organisms due to residues in crops. There are 15 substances listed in POPs. These materials are widely used due to their high chemical stability, low solubility in water, high volatility, strong insecticidal effect and relatively low production costs. Aldrin-containing pesticides are known to have a combustion method for incineration in a chemical incinerator equipped with a reheat-burner device and a gas scrubber, and a solidification isolation method for solidifying and filling with cement mixed with a combustible material in waste treatment. In the case of solid-phase pesticides, HCB was 421.8 ng/g, Endosolfan-2 73.044 ng/g, PeCB 53.972 ng/g and Endosolfan-1 43.649 ng/g. In the case of liquid pesticides, HCB concentration was the highest at 167.489 ng/g similar to that of the solid phase, followed by PeCB at 23.462 ng/g. B-HCH, g-HCH, d-HCH and the like were detected as a small amount of other substances. It is judged that it is not necessary to set separate operating conditions or preventive facility standards since the material is decomposed sufficiently at 850℃ or more. However, considering the possibility of dioxin or unintentional persistent organic pollutants, it is considered appropriate to operate at above 1,100℃.

This study focuses on computational particle fluid dynamics (CPFD) modeling for the fast pyrolysis of biomass in a conical spouted bed reactor. The CPFD simulation was conducted to understand the hydrodynamics, heat transfer, and biomass fast pyrolysis reaction of the conical spouted bed reactor and the multiphase-particle in cell (MP-PIC) model was used to investigate the fast pyrolysis of biomass in a conical spouted bed reactor. A two-stage semi-global kinetics model was applied to model the fast pyrolysis reaction of biomass and the commercial code (Barracuda) was used in simulations. The temperature of solid particles in a conical spouted bed reactor showed a uniform temperature distribution along the reactor height. The yield of fast pyrolysis products from the simulation was compared with the experimental data; the yield of fast pyrolysis products was 74.1wt.% tar, 17.4wt.% gas, and 8.5wt.% char. The comparison of experimental measurements and model predictions shows the model’s accuracy. The CPFD simulation results had great potential to aid the future design and optimization of the fast pyrolysis process for biomass.

본 연구는 A 하수처리장 내 혐기 소화 상징액 그리고 농축조 상징액을 대상으로 반응시간에 따른 질소 화합물 성상 변화에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 하수처리장에서 질소 처리는 일반적으로 질산화 – 탈질의 생물학적 처리를 기반으로 하고 있다. 세계적으로 친환경·저에너지 형 기술이 주목받음에 따라 기존의 완전질산화 반응과 비교하여 경제적인 아질산화 반응 및 관련 연계 기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 아질산화 반응은 SRT 조절에 따른 nitrite oxidizing bacteria(NOB)의 wash-out 또는 free ammonia(FA)에 의한 저해 작용과 같은 인위적인 조작이 없으면, 자연적 안정적으로 유도되기 어려운 반응으로 알려져 있다. 약 300일에 걸친 실험실 규모 아질산화 반응조 운전을 통하여 운전 SRT 별 반응시간에 따라 반응조 내 질소 화합물의 성상 변화를 분석하였다. 안정적인 아질산화 반응이 유도된 구간에서는 암모니아성 질소가 감소함에 따라 아질산성 질소만 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 하지만 완전질산화가 유도된 구간에서는 일정 반응 시간 암모니아성 질소가 감소함에 따라 아질산성 질소와 질산성 질소가 증가하다 일정 시간 이 후 아질산성 질소가 감소하고 질산성 질소가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 완전 질산화가 유도된 구간에서는 상대적으로 긴 SRT로 인해 반응기 내 아질산성 질소로 전환되었던 질소 화합물이 다시 질산성 질소로 전환되는 것을 확인 할 수 있다. 또한, 아질산성 질소가 질산성 질소로 전환되는 시점을 기준으로 아질산화 반응이 유도 가능한 SRT를 파악 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 실험실 규모 운전 결과를 바탕을 도출된 본 연구의 연구 결과는 실제 하수처리장에 아질산화 반응 도입 시 중요한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, fixed bed type CO2 gasification reactor was tested to enhance the production of synthetic gas (CO + H2) from low grade carbon source such as sewage sludge, wood chip, municipal waste, and low calofic valued coal. Various parameter effects on the 0.1 ton/day fixed bed gasifier operation were investigated. The parameters are reaction temperature, CO2/Air ratio, and total flow rate. Temperature was measured at the inlet and outlet of the reactor as well as at 18 positions along the reactor height and radius. The CO2 inlet concentration was tested between 0% and 30%. Total flow rate was varied from 40 L/min to 80 L/min at 20% CO2 inlet and 8 kg activated carbon packing. In the fixed bed CO2 gasification, CO2 took more parts in the gasification than combustion. But CO2 concentration higher than 40% made the two reactions unstable and the one between 20% and 40% did not give so much influence on the reaction time. The reaction time was shortened according to the total flow rate increase, and changed its slope gently above 50 L/min, illustarting CO2 gasification reaction is superior to combustion reaction in the low total flow rate condition.
