Two climate change scenarios, the RCP (Representative Concentration Pathways) 4.5 and the RCP 8.5 in the fifth Assessment Report (AR5) by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), were applied in the Yocheon basin area using the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model to estimate changes in flow rates and pollutant loadings in the future. Field stream flow rate data in Songdong station and water quality data in Yocheon-1 station between 2013~2015 were used for model calibration. While R2 value of flow rate calibration was 0.85 and R2 value of water qualities were in the 0.12~0.43 range. The total study period was divided into 4 sub periods as 2030s (2016~2040), 2050s (2041~2070) and 2080s (2071~2100). The predicted results of flow rates and water quality concentrations were compared with results in calibrated periods, 2015s (2013~2015). In both RCP scenarios, flow rate and TSS (Total Suspended Solid) loadings were estimated to be in increasing trend while TN (Total Nitrogen) and TP (Total Phosphorus) loadings showed decreasing patterns. Also, flow rates and pollutant loadings showed larger differences between the maximum and the minimum values in RCP 4.5 than RCP 8.5 scenarios indicating more severe effect of drought and flood, respectively. Dependent on simulation period and rainfall periods in a year, flow rate, TSS, TN and TP showed different trends in each scenario. This emphasizes importance of considerations on time and space when analyzing climate change impacts of each variable under various scenarios.

In this study, the loading rates (or emission rate) and concentrations of air pollutants (ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10 and TSP)) emitted from a naturally ventilated dairy facility were analyzed and compared to enable a better understanding that are in close proximity to each other, air pollution status. In general, the pollution patterns should be similar in measurement sites that are in close proximity to each other, and this hypothesis was fundamental to our approach in this study. For the comparison in nearby different sites, monitoring points were located at inside (source site) and outside the dairy building (ambient site), and concentrations and wind velocity were simultaneously monitored in real time. The patterns of PM2.5 emission rate and loading rate were similar in the source site and the ambient site which was consist with the hypothesis, while the PM2.5 mass concentration were not similar in both sites. As well as PM2.5, the emission rates (source site) of gaseous carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrous oxide (N2O) were highly correlated to their loading rates (ambient site), while the concentrations of CO2 and N2O were not similar. Therefore, wind velocity, which is included in the emission or loading rate, should be simultaneously monitored with the concentration at the same measurement points for better understanding of the air pollution status.

가스 생산용 해양플랜트 설비에서 발생할 수 있는 폭발사고의 경우, 구조 시스템의 기하학적 특성이나, 바람, 가스 누출율 등과 같은 환경적 조건에 의해 피해 규모의 범위가 상당하다. 따라서 폭발파에 의한 구조 부재의 응답을 분석하기 위해서는 이러한 조건들을 고려한 가스폭발 수치해석 과정이 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 FPSO 탑사이드의 형상 및 장비 배치와 같은 세부적인 부분까지 고려하여 폭발해석을 수행하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 획득한 하중 이력들의 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 다양한 형태로 나타나는 폭발하중 이력들 중 구조물 손상에 직접적으로 영향을 미칠 수 있는 최대 압력과 지속시간들을 고려하여 유한요소해석 시 하중조건으로 적용한 후, 부재의 응답특성에 관한 분석을 수행하였다. 유한요소해석 모델은 실제 구조물에 적용이 가능하고, 복잡한 형상을 이상화한 단 자유도 및 다 자유도 모델을 사용하였다. 정 압력 및 부 압력단계의 최대 압력이 증가함에 따라 구조 부재의 최대 응답이 증가하였고, 부 압단계에서 하중 지속시간이 증가함에 따라 구조물의 최대 변위가 증가는 경향을 보였다.

In real world applications, the response of structures may be dependent on the rate of loading and thus can be affected by transient loading, especially when the rate of loading is significant. In such situations, the rate of loading may become a major issue to understand structures during earthquake excitation or under blast or high velocity impact. In some cases, the rate effect on structures under strong earthquake excitation cannot be ignored when attempting to understand inelastic behavior of structures. M any researchers developed the constitutive theories in cyclic plasticity and viscoplasticity. In this study, numerical simulation by cyclic visocoplasticity models is introduced and analyzed. Finally, the analytical results are compared with experimental results as a means to evaluate and verify the model.

재하속도에 따른 용접강관의 모멘트-곡률 거동특성에 관한 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 3차원 열역학해석을 통하여 용접이음부의 잔류응력을 산출하였다. 그리고 동적소성모델이 적용된 탄소성 유한요소해석 프로그램을 이용하여 잔류응력을 고려한 용접강관(Welded pipe)의 동적해석을 수행하였다. 그리고 용접이음부가 없는 일반강관(Seamless pipe)에 대한 동적거동과의 비교를 통하여 해석을 수행하여 용접강관의 해석력과 해석결과는 용접강관의 모멘트가 일반강관의 모멘트에 비해 낮은 응답을 보였으나 재하속도가 증가함에 따라 모멘트 응답의 차이는 점차 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

유기물과 질소를 동시에 제거하기 위하여 연속회분식으로 운전한 MBR (membrane bioreactor)시스템에서 미생물농도와 슬러지 부하량이 막오염과 미생물 활성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 막오염은 MLSS (mixed liquor suspended solid) 농도 증가에 따라 조금씩 증가하는 경향을 보였고, 그 효과는 비포기 조건보다 포기 조건에는 좀더 두드러지게 나타났다. MLSS 농도는 막오염에 직접적인 커다란 영향을 주지는 않으나, 지나치게 높은 MLSS에서 유도되는 낮은 슬러지 부하에서는 막오염이 크게 증가하는 현상이 발견되었고, 이러한 조건에서는 포기에 의한 막 세척 효과도 크게 줄어들었다. 미생물의 개별 활성도는 슬러지 부하가 감소할수록 지속적으로 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다 반응조 전체 활성도 또한 17,000 mg/L 이상의 높은 MLSS로부터 유도되는 낮은 슬러지 부하율에서는 높은 미생물 농도에도 불구하고 오히려 감소했는데 이는 기질 부족으로 인한 경쟁으로 활성도가 떨어지고, 용액의 점성 증가로 인해 산소 전달율이 저하되었기 때문이다.

Herein , the effect of changes in the organic loading rate in anaerobic digestion was evaluated. The experiment was carried out by a laboratory -scale semi-continuous stirred tank reactor, and feedstock was food-waste leached. The organic loading rate was increased by 0.5 kgVS/m3 in each phase from 1.0 kgVS/m3 to 4.0 kgVS/m3. At the end of the operation, to check the failure of the reactor, the organic loading rate was increased by 1.0 kgVS/m3 in each phase and reached 6.0 kgVS/m3. This shows that the biogas yield decreased as organic loading rate increased. Biogas production seemed to be unstable at 3.5–6.0 kgVS/m3. Moreover, biogas production dramatically fell to approximately 0 mL at 6.0 kgVS/m3, which was decided as the operation failure on the 16th day of the las tphase. The result of the reactor analysis shows that the cumulation of volatile fatty acid increased as the organic loading rate increased. This seems to occur due to the decreasein pH in the reactor and led to extinction of anaerobic bacteria, which were the biogas products. Although the buffer compound (alkalinity) could prevent the decline in pH, the concentration of alkalinity was found to be lacking at a high organic loading rate

A bioelectrochemical anaerobic digester for food waste was developed by installing an anode (−250 mV vs. Ag/AgCl) and a cathode (−550 mV vs. Ag/AgCl) inside a conventional lab-scale anaerobic digester. The performance of the bioelectrochemical anaerobic digester was investigated at different organic loading rates of 0.70-4.25 g VS/L.d. The bioelectrochemical anaerobic digester was rapidly stabilized within 25 days after start up, and at an organic loading rate of less than 1.97 g VS/L.d., state variables such as pH (7.0-7.8) and alkalinity (10-12 g/L as CaCO3) were very stable. The volatile fatty acids were maintained at 400-500 mg HAc/L with their main component being acetic acid (80%). At an organic loading rate of 1.97 g VS/L.d, the performance was significantly high in terms of the specific methane production rate (1.37 L CH4/L.d) and the methane content in the biogas (around 74%). The removal efficiencies of volatile solid and chemical oxygen demand were also as high as 80.1% and 85.1%, respectively, and the overall energy efficiency was 91.2%. However, the process stability deteriorated at an organic loading rate of 4.25 g VS/L.d.

In this study, the applicability of MBR process was evaluated to improve processing of personal sewage treatment facilities of 50 m3/day or less. As result of the research, stable discharge water quality could be secured as result of the MBR effector operation according to rate of inflow and inflow load and treatment efficiency of 98% or higher was shown by the membrane filtering method operation for SS, BOD5. it was found that high treatment efficiency of 99% or higher. It is judged that detention time can be designed until 6.9 hr when applying MBR process on personal sewage treatment facilities with high pollution load and that cutback of pollution load can be possible through this study. It was shown that MBR process application reduces an annual cost of 4,829,600 won based on the basic unit calculation results and solves burden of amount of borne by causers according to excess of discharge water quality standards.

Seaweeds are received high attending as one of new and renewable energy sources. In this study, the effects of organic loading rate (OLR) and hydraulic retention time (HRT) on anaerobic digestion with Laminaria japonica were investigated using labrotory-scale semi-continuous stirred type reactors. The results demonstrated that anaerobic digestion of Laminaria japonica performed stably with OLRs in the range of 1.00 ~ 1.50 g-VS/L⋅d and HRTs in the range of 27 ~ 40 days. The maximum methane production obtained was 251.33 mL-CH4/L⋅d, which was achieved for an OLR of 1.50 g-VS/L⋅d and a HRT of 27 days. However, an OLR of 1.75 g-VS/L⋅d and a HRT of 23 days brought about a decrease in the pH and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) accumulation, causing the destabilization of the reactor and process failure. The reactors operated at a constant influent substrate concentration, i.e., 40 g-VS/L, thus OLR and HRT could not be treated separately and independently. According to the limited results of this study, it seems that the suitable OLR of anaerobic digestion of Laminaria japonica was lower than 1.50 g-VS/L⋅d and suitable HRT was higher than 27 days.

This study has been conducted to optimum operating conditions for effective acid fermentation according to OLR(organic loading rate) in the mesophilic and thermophilic acid fermentation process. The results are summarized as follows. In order to obtain reasonable acid fermentation efficiency in performing acid fermentation of food wastes in thermophilic condition, organic loading rate was required below 20 gVS/L.d. As SCODCr/TKN, SCODCr/T-P of thermophilic acid fermented food wastes in organic loading rate 20 gVS/L.d were 18.9, 73.4 respectively, it was possible to utilize as external carbon source for denitrification in sewage treatment plant after solid-liquid separation as well as co-digestion of fermented food wastes and sewage sludge.

The purpose of this research was to investigate applicative possibility of field. Pilot-scale experiments were conducted, at outdoor temperature, HRT 10hour, IR(Internal Recycle) 150% and used 2.8㎥ Reactor. External carbon source was varied 80 to 120 mg/L. When External carbon source and Alkalinity were injected to the B3 pilot plant, the removal efficiencies of COD and BOD were not decreased. Nitrification rate were 5.95, 5.40, 4.08 mgNH4+-N/gSS/d during operation periods and denitrification rate was 3.12mgNO3--N/gSS/d. When we surveyed the relationship between loading rate of nitrogen and nitrogen removal quantity, this data was 0.949, B3 process will be possible application process of field.

A number of experiments were conducted in order to investigate the organic removal efficiency and biomass characteristics according to the organic shock loading rate in a fluidized bed biofilm reactor. At the operation conditions of HRT, 8.44 hour, superficial upflow velocity, 0.9 ㎝/sec and temperature, 22±1 ℃, the removal efficiency of SCOD was founded to be 96.5, 92 and 90 % with the organic shock loading rate of 3.5, 10.8 and 33 kgCOD/㎥·day, respectively. Within the F/M ratio ranged 0.4 to 2.0 ㎏COD/㎏VSS·day, the SCOD removal efficiency was shown as 90% at F/M ratio of 2.0 ㎏COD/㎏VSS·day, but the TCOD removal efficiency was 72 % at F/M ratio of 1.8 kgCOD/kgVSS·day. The average biomass concentrations were 7800, 14950 and 27532 ㎎/l on the organic shock loading rate of 3.5, 10.8 and 33 ㎏COD/㎥·day, respectively. This result was agreed with the fact that more biomass could be produced at high concentration of substrate, but some biomass was detached at the onset of shock and easily acclimated at the shock condition.
