In this research, results of measuring temperature and relative humidity of underground-air-heat in Jeju showed $15{\sim}18^{\circ}C$ and 70~80% each which are somewhat high compare to other regions. So the Multi-effect dehumidifying and heating Heat Pump system which has merged functions of dehumidification and heating is made to solve this problem mentioned previously. When the suction air was $15^{\circ}C$ with 60% humidity, the outcome was 1.70 on $COP_h$ and 1.797(kg/h) on total amount of dehumidification, and also showed 1.87 $COP_h$ with 1.87 total amount of dehumidification under the condition of $20^{\circ}C$ and 80% humidity of suction air. Furthermore, $COP_h$ showed increased number which is 1.87 and also total amount of dehumidification increased which was 3.269(kg/h). The highest COP can be achieved at $17^{\circ}C$ and 70% relative humidity condition.

A water reforming reaction high-speed turning incinerator test facility was prepared. The reforming reaction chamber and the combustion chamber were directly connected. The incinerator and dust collecting device were integrated and made into a double bulkhead type air cooling structure. The blower is built into the dust collector to improve spatial efficiency. An axial flow type multi-stage dust collector was applied by collecting dust by using a plurality of dust collecting bins attached to the side of the dust collecting part. As a result of measuring dioxin among the exhausted gases, results below the standard value were obtained. As a result of measuring exhaust gas and heavy metals, results were obtained below the environmental standard.

For the development of low NO$_{x}$ gas burners aimed for absorption chiller/heater unit, three proto type burners of different capacity (265000, 498000, and 664000 kcal/h) have been manufactured through a combustion method of step-by-step air injection. In order to characterize the overall features of the flame and the properties of the emission gas, the temperature of the flame and the concentration of NO$_{x}$ and CO were determined. The main factors in the design of burners (the area of primary air injection, the diameter of secondary air injection hole, fuel nozzle diameter) were observed to increase linearly with the scale-up of burner capacity. The flame temperature profiles of the burners were observed to be almost similar, irrespective of their capacity. However, as their capacity increased, the flame temperature slightly increased and the hot region of the flames moved to ward the flame tip along with the expansion to the direction of radius. From the proto type units, the amount of their NO$_{x}$ emission was determined to be around 25 - 30 vppm(3% )$_{2}$) and the CO emission was less than 19 vppm (3% $O_{2}$).TEX>).

This study is aimed to study combustion characteristics of low $NO_X$ burner using petroleum cokes as fuel. The petroleum coke, which is produced through the oil refining process, is an attractive fuel in terms of its high heating value and relatively low price. But petroleum coke is a challenging fuel because of its low volatile content, high sulfur and nitrogen content, which give rise to undesirable emission characteristics and low ignitability. The petroleum cokes burner is operated at fuel rich condition, and overfire air are supplied to achieve fuel lean condition. The low $NO_X$ burner is designed to control fuel and air mixing to achieve air staged combustion, in addition secondary and tertiary air are supplied through swirler. Air distribution ratio of triple staged air are optimized experimentally. The result showed that $NO_X$ concentration is lowest when overfire air is used, and the burner function at a fuel rich condition.

A numerical investigation has been carried out about the performance of a 500MW class tangentially coal-fired boiler, focusing on the optimization of separated overfire air (SOFA) position to reduce NOx emission. For this purpose, a comprehensive combination of NOx chemistry models has been employed in the numerical simulation of a particle-laden flow along with solid fuel combustion and heat and mass transfer. A reasonable agreement has been shown in baseline cases for predicted operational parameters compared with experimental data measured in the boiler. A further SOFA calculation has been made to obtain optimum elevation and position of SOFA port. Additionally, clarifying on the effect of SOFA on NOx emission has been carried out in the coal-fired boiler. As a result, this paper is valuable to provide an information about the optimum position of SOFA and the mechanism by which the SOFA would affect NOx emission.

A vertical multi-stage ammonia stripping reactor using E-PFR, which has been proved to be superior in anaerobic and aerobic treatment, was developed and a lab scale experiment was conducted. According to the change of stage number condition, the removal rate of the ammonia nitrogen in the reactor with 0-stage was about 52.5% after 8 hours (pH 10, temperature $35^{\circ}C$, and the air/liquid ratio $3min^{-1}$) However, in the reactor with 5-stage, the removal efficiency was about 62.6%. According to the change of pH condition, the removal rate of ammonia nitrogen was about 42.6% at pH 9 after 8 hours, and was about 74.4% at pH 11 (5-stage reactor, temperature $35^{\circ}C$, and the air/liquid ratio $3min^{-1}$). According to the change of temperature condition, the removal rate of the ammonia nitrogen was about 51% at $25^{\circ}C$ after 8 hours (5-stage reactor, pH 10, and the air/liquid ratio $3min^{-1}$), and was about 87.2% at $45^{\circ}C$. According to the change of air injection volume condition, the removal rate of the ammonia nitrogen was about 45.8% at $2min^{-1}$ after 8 hours (5-stage reactor, pH 10, and at $35^{\circ}C$). and was about 75% at $4min^{-1}$. Based on these results, we will follow up the applicability of the actual plant in the future through continuous operation evaluation.

The oxidizer-rich preburner's combustion tests were fulfilled in the development process of staged combustion cycle rocket engines. The exhaust plume from an oxidizer-rich preburner is relatively transparent because combustion takes place in oxidizer rich state. During hot fire tests a still and infrared images were captured to visualize the plume structure, temperature distribution and so on. In addition, the exhaust plume was numerically investigated to figure out the detailed characteristics. The combustion was not considered for the numerical modeling, but the mixing of exhaust plume with circumstantial air was modeled by species transport model with several turbulence models. The inner structure of plume was configured out by the comparison of numerical results with experimental results, and the validity of applied numerical models was verified.

Nowadays, automobile manufacturers are focusing on the reduction of exhaust-gas emissions because of the harmful effects on humans and the environment, such as global warming by greenhouse gases. Gasoline direct injection (GDI) combustion is a promising technology that can improve fuel economy significantly compared to conventional port fuel injection (PFI) gasoline engines. In the present study, ultra-lean combustion with an excess air ratio of over 2.0 is realized with a spray-guided-type GDI combustion system, so that the fuel consumption is improved by about 13%. The level of exhaust-gas emissions and the operation performance with the multiple injection strategy and exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) are examined in comparison with the emission regulations and from the point of view of commercialization.

상압 플라즈마 기술은 표면처리, 온존 발생장치, VOC (Volatile Organic compound) 제거등 다양한 산업분야에서 응용되고 있다. 상압플라즈마 기술 또한 DBD (Dielectric barrier discharge), Griding Arc, SDIP (Surface Discharge Induced Plasma) 등 다양한 기술들이 개발되어져 왔다. VOC를 제거하기 위한 다양한 플라즈마 기술중 특히 BDB 방법과 SDIP 기술들은 플라즈마에 의한 VOC 분해 뿐만 아니라 오존 발생을 통하여 VOC성분을 분해하는 것으로 알려져 있으며 효율이 매우 뛰어난 것으로 보고 되고 있다. 그러나 BDB 방전의 경우 방전이 발생하는 간격이 매우 작아 공기를 정화시키기 위해 좁은 유로를 통하여 일정넓이를 이동하여하 하기 때문에 압력감소가 심하며 이를 개선하기위해 다단으로 설계할 경우 구조가 복잡하고 가격이 고가인 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 두 개의 면 전극이 마주보는 형태로 된 DBD 구조의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 빗살무늬 모양의 다층구조의 선형전극으로 구조를 변화시켜 전극에 의한 압력감소를 방지하고 효율적으로 플라즈마 및 오존을 발생시킬 수 있는 VOC제거용 상압 플라즈마 발생장치를 개발하였다. 또한 플라즈마 발생 및 오존발생량이 우수한 것으로 알려져 있는 SDIP 장치 또한 제작하여 비교 평가를 하였다. 제작된 플라즈마 발생장치는 60 Hz와 20kHz의 교류 고압파워 서플라이를 이용하여 플라즈마 발생실험을 진행하였다. 선행 연구에서는 60 Hz의 고압 파워 서플라이를 이용하여도 플라즈마 방전이 잘 된다고 보고되었는데 본 실험에서 60 Hz 파워 서플라이를 사용할 경우 15 kV 이상이 인가될 때 아주 약하게 오존이 발생하는 현상이 관찰되었으나 육안으로 구분이 될 만큼의 플라즈마 방전은 발생하지 않았다. 20kHz의 고압파워 서플라이를 사용한 경우에는 비교적 낮은 전압인 7 kV에서 방전이 관찰되었으며 분당 22 mg의 오존이 발생하였다. SDIP를 이용한 경우 플라즈마가 발생하는 조건은 SDIP의 기하학적 형상에 많이 의존하게 된다. 본 실험에 SDIP 장치는 매우 낮은 전압에서 방전을 시작하였다. 기존의 DBD와는 다르게 1.7 kV에서 플라즈마 발생하였으며 1.8 kV에서 정상적인 플라즈마 방전이 발생하였다. 이때 분당 3.1 mg의 오존이 발생하였다. 오존 발생양은 앞에 빗살형 플라즈마 방전장치에 비하여 낮은데 인가되는 전력을 고려하면 입력된 전기 에너지당 오존발생양은 비슷한 수준이였다.
