Lab-scale biofilter was studied for the simultaneous removal of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in gas mixtures. Compost and polyurethane foam were used as packing materials (50 : 50) and activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant was innoculated initially. When tested under varying inlet concentrations and empty bed residence time(EBRT), up to 80 ppmv of ammonia and 40 ppmv of hydrogen sulfide could be removed completely at an EBRT of 30 sec. The pH was found to be the key factor governing the biofilter performance.

This study was carried out to develop INSUB(Indirected Aerated Submerged Biofilter) which can remove organics, nitrogen and phosphorus with an advanced treatment system. The results were as followed in laboratory model experiment. As for treatment of sewage, when economical efficiency was considered in practice, the highest removal efficiency was at 18hr of HRT, 1.017m/hr of superficial velocity and 40% of media packing ratio. Each removal efficiency for $COD_{cr}$, $COD_{Mn}$, $BOD_5$, T-N, and T-P was 90.6, 85.3, 95.0, 52.3 and 56.8%. To remove the nitrogen and phosphorus With high efficiency, first of all, denitrification have to be completed, then uptake of phosphorus have to completed. Therefor, mixture of anoxic and aerobic reactor was necessary for the high removal efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus in INSUB.

This paper discussed the dispersion effect according to the geometrical variation of an internal-loop spparatus by the method of pulse injection of a tracer. The Bodenstein number, which is the dimensionless group characterizing the effect of dispersion, was decreased with increasing the superficial gas velocity in the 50L and the 500L apparatus. But, in the 5L apparatus, the Bodenstein number was increased with increasing the superficial gas velocity in the range of 0 to 2cm/sec but above that range the rate of increase was dropped down to give a constant value because of the phenomenon of gas disengagement. The principle of similarity based on dimensional analysis was applied to design a pilot scale internal-loop apparatus. The effect of dispersion was examined in three different internal-loop apparatus to give the following correlation with major geometric and fluid dynamic properties as variables.

This study identified the loss of minimum fluidization velocity and pressure in accordance with the superficial velocity of $NiO/MoO_3/MoS_2$, a rare metallic oxide and high value-added material in the lab-scale fluidized bed reactor (L=0.25 m, D=0.05 m). The average pressure loss in L/D 1, 2, and 3 of $NiO/MoO_3/MoS_2$ within the scope of superficial gas velocity between 0.07 and 0.45 m/s based on the L/D 1, 2, and 3 of the specimen was shown to be 290~1952 Pa at decreasing flux and 253~1925 Pa at increasing flux. The comparison between the theoretical value proposed by Wen and the test data showed a difference between 0.021~0.36 magnification. Based on these results, this study was able to determine the operation conditions where rare metallic oxides could be applied in real phenomena.

The effects of air velocity and excess air on combustion characteristics were studied in a fluidized bed combustor. The domestic low-grade anthracite coal with heating value of 2010 kcal/kg and the imported bituminous coal from Australia with heating value of 6520 kcal/kg were used as coal samples. The combustion characteristics of mixed fuels in a fluidized bed combustor could be interpreted by pressure fluctuation properties, ash distribution and gas emission. The properties of the pressure fluctuations, such as the standard deviation, cross-correlation function, dominant frequency and the power spectral density function, were obtained from the statistical analysis. From this study, the combustion region increased with increasing air velocity but decreased with excess air due to combustion characteristics of anthracite and bituminous coal.

억새는 척박한 토양 조건에서도 쉽게 자라며 관리가 용이하다는 장점이 있어 바이오에너지 작물로 주목을 받고 있다. 억새는 주로 Miscanthus sacchariflorus(물억새)와 Miscanthus sinensis(참억새) 그리고 두 억새의 잡종인 Miscanthus giganteus로 구분되며, 최근 기존의 억새보다 생체량을 크게 늘린 거대억새가 개발되기도 하였다. 본 실험에서는 우리나라 전역에서 가장 흔하게 볼 수 있는 물억새와 참억새를 유동층 반응기를 이용하여 급속열분해 하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 억새로부터 얻은 바이오원유와 나무로부터 얻은 바이오원유의 특성을 비교하고, 시료투입속도의 변화를 주어 억새로부터 얻은 바이오원유의 수율과 특성을 알아보고자 함이다. 시료의 투입속도는 200g/h, 300g/h, 500g/h, 1000g/h로 변화를 주었으며, 반응온도($500^{\circ}C$), 공탑속도(0.19m/s), 응축기온도($10^{\circ}C$)는 매 실험마다 동일하게 유지하였다. 수집한 바이오원유는 공업분석을 통해 연료로서의 가치를 알아보았다. 목재를 급속열분해 한 경우 바이오원유의 수율은 56.03wt.%로 동일한 조건에서 억새를 급속열분해 한 경우 보다 약 6wt.%가량 높았다. 바이오원유의 발열량은 큰 차이가 없었으나 수분과 점도에서 큰 차이를 보였다. 투입속도가 증가할수록 바이오원유의 수율은 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 시간당 1000g을 투입하였을 때는 수율이 감소하였으나 수율의 변화는 크지 않았다. 투입속도가 증가하는 경우 바이오원유의 고위발열량과 점도는 감소하고 수분이 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

In this study, We investigated the effects of water temperature and empty bed contact time (EBCT) on the biodegradability of 8 blood lipid lower agents (BLLAs) in biological activated carbon (BAC) process. Experiments were conducted at three water temperatures ($8^{\circ}C$, $16^{\circ}C$ and $24^{\circ}C$) and three EBCTs (5 min, 10 min and 15 min). Increasing water temperature and EBCT increased the biodegradation efficiency of BLLAs in BAC process. Simvastatin and fenofibrate were the highest biodegradation efficiency, but atorvastatin and clofibric acid were the lowest. The kinetic analysis suggested a pseudo-first-order reaction model for biodegradation of 8 BLLAs at various water temperatures and EBCTs. The pseudo-first-order biodegradation rate constants ($k_{bio}$) of clofibric acid and atorvastatin were $0.0075min^{-1}$ and $0.0122min^{-1}$ at $8^{\circ}C$, and were $0.0540min^{-1}$ and $0.0866min^{-1}$ at $24^{\circ}C$, respectively. By increasing the water temperature from $8^{\circ}C$ to $24^{\circ}C$, the biodegradation rate constants ($k_{bio}$) were increased 7.1~7.2 times.

The feasibility of foam separation to remove protein produced from fish culture water was investigated, By assuming foam separation column as a single well-mixed pool, a simplified model for foam separator conditions was alse studied under the batch operation. The model indicated that the protein removal could be described as a first-order reaction whose rate increases with both superficial air velocity and protein concentration in the bulk solution. from ,the results of an experimental study on the effects of superficial air velocity, the protein concentration, temperature, and pH on protein removal, the superficial air velocity and initial protein concentration in bulk solution were found to be important operational factors. Other experimental results important that foam separator operated under batch conditions would be considered as a completely mixed reactor. The protein removal rate by foam separation process was increased proportionally with the superficial air velocity, and the adsorptive removal rate of protein was found to obey Langmuir adsorption formula. The preposed simplified model was verified with the experimental data obtained from this study. Under the experimental range used, both temperature and pH did not affect the protein removal.

The objective of this study is to get the basic data for the development of fluidized bed combustor. For this purpose, various rake angles(.theta.=20.deg., 25.deg., 30.deg., 35.deg.) of finned tubes and a smooth tube were installed horizontally in the fluidized bed combustor of 410*250mm. The effect of fluidized bed temperature, superficial velocity in bed, size of bed materials, rake angle of finned tubes on the heat transfer coefficient was experimentally investigated. The following results were obtained. (1) Under the fluidized bed temperature(750.deg. C-900.deg. C), and the gas velocity in bed(1.1-2.8m/sec), The highest heat transfer coefficient was measured with the rake angle of finned tubes was .theta.=25.deg. and .theta.=35.deg. for the average fluidized material particle size of 1.22mm and 1.54mm, respectively. Generally, the heat transfer coefficient of finned tubes is 1.4 to 2.4 times larger than that of smooth tubes. (2) The size of bed materials influences the rake angle of finned tubes which can have the highest heat transfer coefficient. As the temperature in bed gets higher, the effect of the rake angle of finned tubes on the heat transfer coefficient becomes greater.

Cold bed and $30kW_{th}$ pilot bed tests using circulating fluidized bed (CFB) were conducted to apply oxy-fuel technology for waste sludge combustion as a carbon capture and storage technology. In cold bed test, the minimum fluidization velocity ($u_{mf}$) and superficial velocity for fast fluidization was determined as 0.120 m/s and 2.5 m/s, respectively. In the pilot test, air and oxy-fuel combustion experiments for waste sludge were conducted using CFB unit. The flue-gas temperature in 21~25% oxy-fuel combustion was higher than that of air and up to 30% oxy-fuel combustion. In addition, the concentration of carbon dioxide was more than 80% with the oxygen injection range from 21% to 25% in oxy-fuel CFB waste sludge combustion.
