본 연구는 Vortex tube 형 이산화탄소 흡수장치에서 연소배가스 중 $CO_2$ 흡수 특성을 고찰한 것이다. 연소배가스로는 석탄(유연탄)을 연료로 하는 증기발생량 12 ton/hr 규모의 순환유동층 연소보일러에서 발생한 것을 이용하였으며 이산화탄소농도는 11~13 vol% 내외이다. 흡수 용액은 MEA 20 wt%를 기준으로 AMP, HMDA, 강염기계 KOH를 혼합하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 $CO_2$ 흡수장치를 Scrubbing 방식보다 소형화하고, 흡수용액을 절감하는 것이다. 흡수장치는 연소배가스 유량 $20Nm^3/hr$를 처리할 수 있는 직경 17 mm, 길이 250 mm의 Vortex tube 형을 사용하였다. 연소배가스와 흡수용액의 혼합 분무를 통한 $CO_2$ 제거율을 측정하였다. 실험조건은 흡수용액 농도(20~50 wt%), 흡수용액 유량(1.0, $3.0{\ell}/min$)과 연소배가스 유량($6{\sim}15Nm^3/hr$)을 변화시켰다. 결과적으로, MEA에 HMDA를 혼합한 흡수용액의 $CO_2$ 제거율이 가장 우수(약 43% 제거율)하였으며, Vortex tube 장치에서 고속유동의 기 액 접촉효과 및 기 액 분리 특성을 이용하여 $CO_2$ 흡수가 가능하였다. 그러나 $CO_2$ 흡수 효율 향상을 위한 추가적인 공정개발이 요구된다.

This research was performed for developing of biological treatment process of odor gas such as MEK, $H_{2}S$, and toluene, which is generated from the food waste recycling process. To establish the operational conditions of odor gas removal by small-scale biofiltration equipment, it was continuously operated by using toluene as a treating odor object. When the odor treating microorganisms were adhered to fibril form biofilter, high removal efficiency over 93% was obtained by biofilm formation. At 400 ppm of inlet odor gas concentration and 10 sec of retention time, the removal efficiency was 76% and 93% in 1st stage reactor and 2nd stage reactor, respectively. However, the removal efficiency remained over 97% at the operational conditions above 15 sec of retention time.

The Recently, several countries have been affected by respiratory diseases, resulting in renewed research interest in their prevention and control. One such example was the 2015 outbreak of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in South Korea and COVID-19. In this study, we performed experiments and simulations based on concentration decay using CO2 as the tracer gas to elucidate the pollutant-removal efficiency for different inlet and exhaust locations and outdoor air-supply ratios. The wall inlet exhibited a higher pollutant-removal efficiency, owing to the upward movement of the air from the lower zone to the upper one. In conclusion, it is recommended that a total air-conditioning plan for isolation rooms be established as well as efficient system operation for pollutant removal and air-flow control to prevent the transmission of infections from the patients to others.

The total volume of this reactor in 6 L, in composted of anoxic reactor (2 L), aerobic reactor (2 L), and nitification reactor (2 L). BOD removal efficiency rates when centrifugal machine was applied after effluent from biological reactor are over than 95%. This biological reactor was required post process to satisfy the effluent standards, and was need centrifugal machine to control the washout of microbes in the reactor. T-N removal efficiency rate in HRT 24 hr with centrifugation is 80.0%, and it is desirable to operate less than $1.3kgN/m^3{\cdot}d$ for 70% of T-N removal efficiency rate. T-P removal efficiency rate in HRT 24 hr is 68.2%, and become higher 71.3% after centrifugation. Considering in the 28.6% T-N removal efficiency rate, the nitrogen contents of the effluent from reactor is 0.34% to satisfy the liquid fertilizer.

본 연구에서는 $CO_2$를 이용한 알칼리폐수의 중화처리 시 jet loop reactor의 적용가능성을 검토하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 연속식 jet loop reactor에서 pH=10.1인 알칼리 폐수의 유입유량($Q_{L,in}=0.9{\sim}6.6L/min$)과 유입가스유량($Q_{G,in}=1{\sim}6L/min$)을 변화시키면서 유출수의 pH 변화 및 $CO_2$ 제거특성을 살펴보았다. 중화반응 후 유출수의 pH는 $Q_{L,in}/Q_{G,in}$ 비가 1.1일 때는 $Q_{G,in}$ 및 $Q_{L,in}$이 증가하여도 pH가 7.2 정도로 일정하게 유지되었다. 그러나 $Q_{L,in}/Q_{G,in}$ 비가 1.1 이상에서는 $Q_{L,in}/Q_{G,in}$ 비가 증가할수록 $CO_2$ 제거효율 및 배출수의 pH가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구범위에서 얻어진 최대 $CO_2$ 제거효율은 98.06%로 $Q_{G,in}=2L/min$, $Q_{L,in}=4L/min$인 조건이었으며, 이때의 유출수 pH는 8.43 이었다.

The experimental study by use of SPCP was fulfilled to remove toluene emitted from various industrial processes. First of all, discharge characteristic was experimented as the change of applied voltage and frequency. Then toluene removal characteristic was tested with the analysis of by-products. As a result, optimum electrical discharge condition was from 20.0 kHz to 25.0 kHz of frequency and from 3.5 kV to 4.0 kV of voltage range. The variation of applied voltage had a more important effect on the removal characteristic of toluene than the frequency variation. The toluene removal efficiency was proportioned to ozone concentration and retention time on discharge plate. It was dropped as increase of toluene concentration, but total treated volume of tolene per power consumption was high. The decomposed toluene was transformed to $CO, CO_2$ and particulates, and the rate of transformation to particulates was higher than CO and $CO_2$ at high toluene concentration. Particulates were increased from 0.017 $\mum$ to 0.3 $\mum$ range of size distribution.

This study applied upgrades to the processes of a 10 MW wet amine $CO_2$ capture pilot plant and conducted performance evaluation. The 10 MW $CO_2$ Capture Pilot Plant is a facility that applies 1/50 of the combustion flue gas produced from a 500 MW coal-fired power plant, and is capable of capturing up to 200 tons of $CO_2$. This study aimed to quantitatively measure efficiency improvements of post-combustion $CO_2$ capture facilities resulting from process upgrades to propose reliable data for the first time in Korea. The key components of the process upgrades involve absorber intercooling, lean/rich amine exchanger efficiency improvements, reboiler steam TVR (Thermal Vapor Recompression), and lean amine MVR (Mechanical Vapor Recompression). The components were sequentially applied to test the energy reduction effect of each component. In addition, the performance evaluation was conducted with the absorber $CO_2$ removal efficiency maintained at the performance evaluation standard value proposed by the IEA-GHG ($CO_2$ removal rate: 90%). The absorbent used in the study was the highly efficient KoSol-5 that was developed by KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Corporation). From the performance evaluation results, it was found that the steam consumption (regeneration energy) for the regeneration of the absorbent decreased by $0.38GJ/tonCO_2$ after applying the process upgrades: from $2.93GJ/ton\;CO_2$ to $2.55GJ/tonCO_2$. This study confirmed the excellent performance of the post-combustion wet $CO_2$ capture process developed by KEPCO Research Institute (KEPRI) within KEPCO, and the process upgrades validated in this study are expected to substantially reduce $CO_2$ capture costs when applied in demonstration $CO_2$ capture plants.

본 연구에서는 발포법 및 겔-캐스팅법을 이용하여 소석회와 석회석을 원료로 다공성 필터의 제조를 제조하였다. 제조된 필터의 물성과 $SO_2$ 제거성능을 평가한 결과 다공성 석회질 필터의 기공률 및 기공크기가 클수록 수많은 윈도우에 의해서 대부분의 기공이 열린 기공으로 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. $SO_2$ 제거에 대한 다공성 석회질 필터의 영향은 다음과 같이 관찰되었다. 반응온도가 증가할수록 $SO_2$ 제거효율은 증가하였다. $SO_2$ 유입농도에 따른 제거 효율의 차이가 많이 나지 않았지만 유량 차이에 의한 효율 변화는 상대적으로 크게 나타났다. 필터의 경우 기공률이 클수록 $SO_2$ 제거효율은 우수하였으며, 기공률이 동일한 경우에서는 소석회 필터는 석회석 필터보다 $SO_2$ 제거효율이 우수하였다. 이것은 소석회의 CaO 전환율이 석회석에 비해 우수하여 $SO_2$에 의해 상대적으로 쉽게 $CaSO_4$로 형성되었기 때문으로 판단된다.
