The purpose of this study is to provide a design and operation technical guideline for meeting the appropriate design criteria to bio-gasification facilities treating organic wastes. Based on the results obtained during the field surveys, the overall design and operation guidelines for bio-gasification facilities, monitoring items, cycle and commissioning period were presented. According to the flow of anaerobic digestion process, Various design factors for bio-gasification facilities were proposed in this study. When designing the initial anaerobic digestion capacity, 10 ~ 30% of the treatment capacity was applied considering the discharge characteristics by the incoming organic wastes. At the import storage hopper process, limit concentration of transporting organic wastes was limited to TS 10 % or less, and limit concentration of inhibiting factor was suggested in operation of anaerobic digester. In addition, organic loading rate (OLR) was shown as $1.5{\sim}4.0kgVS_{in}/(m^3{\cdot}day)$ for the combined bio-gasification facilities of animal manure and food wastes. Desulfurization and dehumidification methods of biogas from anaerobic digestor and proper periods of liquifization tank were suggested in design guideline. It is recommended that the operating parameters of the biogasification facilities to be maintained at pH (acid fermentation tank 4.5~6.5, methane fermentation tank 6.0~8.0), temperature variation range within $2^{\circ}C$, management of volatile fatty acid and ammonia concentration less than 3,000 mg/L, respectively.

One of the main problems with gaseous fire extinguishers is the decrease in fire suppression capability due to the leakage of the fire extinguishing agents, either naturally or caused by obsolete equipment. Therefore, in this study, a real-time detector module for monitoring pressure leakages was developed and an assessment on its performance was carried out. Currently, there are no domestic or global standards for testing pressure leakage detection systems. Therefore, similar global standards, such as ISO 7240 and FM 1421, and the domestic law on "Receiver type-approval and technical standards for product inspection" were used as a reference for assessing the performance of the newly developed module. Its basic performance was assessed by applying compressed air to the module, and, as a result, the minimum working pressure was identified as 0.3 bar. Its environmental qualification was carried out to confirm the proper functioning of the module in different climates and the module was confirmed to function properly at both high ($50^{\circ}C$) and low ($-10^{\circ}C$) temperatures.

As a guideline for desulfurization and dehumidification pretreatment facility for optimizing utilization of biogas, the $H_2S$ concentration is set at 150 % which can be treated with iron salts, dehumidification is the optimum value for generator operation, and the relative humidity applied at the utilization of biogas in EU is set at 60 %. We have set up the generator facility guidelines to optimize utilization of biogas. The appropriate amount of biogas should be at least 90 % of the total gas generation, and the capacity of generator facility should be set at 20~30 %. In order to equalize the pressure of the incoming gas the generator, a gas equalization tank should be installed and the generator room average temperature should be kept at $45^{\circ}C$ or less. Since the gas is not produced at a certain methane concentration in the digester, the efficiency is lowered. Therefore, it is required to install an air fuel ratio control system according to the change in methane concentration. Therefore, it is necessary to compensate for the disadvantages of biogasification facilities of organic waste resources and optimize utilization of biogas and improve operation of facilities. This study was conducted to optimize biogas utilization of type of organic waste(containing sewage sludge and food waste, animal manure), investigate the facilities problem and propose design, operation guidelines such as pre-treatment facilities and generators.

We have conducted a numerical simulation under three-dimensional unsteady conditions in order to analyze the characteristics of flow and the distribution of $CO_2$ agent concentration according to the number of $CO_2$ agent nozzle. The engine room of a ship was selected as a protection space, and flow fields and $CO_2$ concentration fields were measured. In case of increasing the number of $CO_2$ nozzle from 2 nozzles to 4 nozzles, the distribution of CO2 concentration showed low, and in case of increasing the number of $CO_2$ nozzle to above 6 nozzles, the recirculating flow affected to all region was generated. In case of increasing the number of $CO_2$ agent nozzle to above 4 nozzles, the iso-concentration line below 0.36 expanded or contracted slightly. Therefor, the proper number and the arrangement of $CO_2$ agent nozzle are considered when $CO_2$ fire fighting system is designed.

The sprinkler system is regarded as the most effective fire extinguishing system. In this study, we proposed a sprinkler layout optimization framework based on fire simulation and mathematical programming. As a case study, the target space in the form of ordinary residence was set up with the size of $5.2m(L){\times}5.4m(W){\times}2.4m(H)$, and we constructed the fire scenario that polyurethane couch was ignited through carelessness. And we simulated and analyzed fire speed, temperature change and heat release rate according to the type and number of sprinklers installed. Through the formulation of installation and damage costs depending on sprinklers, the sprinkler layout showing optimal performance was resulted from mathematical programming.

Large scale fire tests were conducted to develop water mist nozzles as a component of fixed water- based fire fighting systems for Ro-Ro spaces and special category spaces. Fire scenarios for this system consist of two cases which are for cargo fire in a simulated truck and for passenger vehicle fire, and each case has 3 different tests according to the position between fixed water mist nozzles and fire source. Every experiment proceeded for 30 minutes and acceptance criteria were based on gas temperature, fuel package's damage and ignition of targets. This study primarily dealt with the experimental results of cargo fire and focused on fire suppression capability in accordance with discharge pressure, flow rate and flow characteristics like swirl and penetration of the developed water mist nozzles. It appeared that low pressure water mist nozzles with about 40 L/min were able to control fire occurred in Ro-Ro spaces.

본 논문에서는 Door Fan Test 수행 사례를 중심으로 사전 준비에 필요한 사항에 대해 분석하였다. 분석 결과 관통부 주위 개구부, 벽체 틈새 개구부 등 방화구역의 누설부위를 통해 약제가 누출되는 문제가 있었다. 원인으로는 전기배선 공사로 인해 내화충전된 부분을 제거하고 공사 후 다시 충전하지 않는 경우, 벽과 천장사이의 틈을 내화 실란트 등으로 마감을 하지 않은 경우가 대부분이었다. 이와 같이 누설부위가 많은 경우 테스트의 결과 불합격이 나오게 되며, 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 사전현장조사를 통해 방호구역의 누설부위를 조사하고 보완조치를 진행한 후 테스트를 수행하는 절차가 필요하였다. 한편, 테스트 운영에 관한 사항으로는 해당 실(room)을 위한 충분한 유량 미확보, 장애물로 인한 와류형성, 차압측정구의 설치문제 등이 있었다. 이를 개선하기 위해서 공기를 유입하는 실은 외부로부터 충분한 공기유입이 있어야하며, 팬 앞의 장애물을 제거하거나 팬의 설치 위치를 조정하는 것이 필요하며, 공기의 유동이 가장 적은 곳에 측정구를 설치하는 등의 조치가 필요하다.

The objectives of this study are to analyze the energy independence plan and to propose a suitable sewage treatment plant in Korea. The total amount of electricity consumption for public sewage treatment plant was estimated as 1,182 GWh in 2007. It was estimated that total 16 sewage treatment plants with renewable energy systems produced electricity of 15.2 GWh per year, which could replaced 0.8% of total electricity used for sewage treatment. It was found that domestic sewage treatment plants with power generation plants by digestion gas were installed in 7 places and produced electricity of 13 GWh per year. It was also found that the power generation plants by digestion gas were the most cost-effective for sewage treatment out of the renewable energy systems based on the benefit-cost analysis.

화재발생시 가장 주요한 사망원인인 유독가스의 제어와, 소방관의 소화활동을 돕기 위한 제연설비는 각 구성품이 유기적으로 동작하는 시스템을 이루기 때문에 전체의 조화도 중요하지만, 기본적으로 각 설비요소가 제 기능을 발휘할 때 전체 시스템의 제연성능을 확보할 수 있게 된다. 그러나 현재 법으로 규정된 국내기준은 주요 구성품별 성능을 제대로 평가할 수 있는 방법 및 기준이 없어 본 연구를 통하여 배연창의 성능평가기술을 개발하고 항목별 성능시험을 실시하여 평가방법의 적합성을 검토하고 국가표준을 만들기 위한 기초 자료로 제공하고자 한다.
