가스 하이드레이트는 작은 고체 부피 내에 막대한 양의 가스를 저장할 수 있다는 특징으로 인하여 최근 주목을 받고 있지만, 엔지니어링 분야에서는 천연가스 수송 파이프라인에 blockage problem을 일으키는 해로운 물질로 처음 관심을 받았다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 초기에는 하이드레이트 형성영역을 벗어나도록 온도, 압력을 유지하기도 하였으나, 최근에는 다양한 형성 억제제가 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 억제제로 알려져 있는 대표적인 알코올 화합물인 에탄올을 이용하여 고압의 메탄과 binary 하이드레이트의 형성 연구를 수행하였다. 다양한 농도의 에탄올을 이용하여 형성된 하이드레이트 샘플은 고체 NMR 분석을 통하여 분자 거동을 자세히 측정하였으며, 분말 XRD 분석을 통하여 헝성된 미세 결정 구조도 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 에탄올 및 알코올 화합물의 가스 하이드레이트 형성 거동 및 binary guest 시스템에서의 tuning 효과에 대한 유용한 정보를 제시할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

The amount of the plastic waste has been increasing according to global demand for plastic. Microplastics are the most hazardous among all plastic pollutants due to their toxicity and unknown physicochemical properties. This study investigates the optimal methodology that can be applied to sewage samples for detecting microplastics before discussing reducing microplastics in MWTPs. In this study, the effect of different pretreatment methods while detecting microplastic analysis of MWTP influent samples was investigated; the samples were collected from the J sewage treatment plant. There are many pretreatment methods but two of them are widely used: Fenton digestion and hydrogen peroxide oxidation. Although there are many pretreatment methods that can be applied to investigate microplastics, the most widely used methods for sewage treatment plant samples are Fenton digestion and H₂O₂ oxidation. For each pretreatment method, there were factors that could cause an error in the measurement. To overcome this, in the case of the Fenton digestion pretreatment, it is recommended to proceed with the analysis by filtration instead of the density separation method. In the case of the H₂O₂ oxidation method, the process of washing with distilled water after the reaction is recommended. As a result of the analysis, the concentration of microplastics was measured to be 2.75ea/L for the sample using the H₂O₂ oxidation method and 3.2ea/L for the sample using the Fenton oxidation method, and most of them were present in the form of fibers. In addition, it is difficult to guarantee the reliability of measurement results from quantitative analysis performed via microscope with eyes. A calibration curve was created for prove the reliability. A total of three calibration curves were drawn, and as a result of analysis of the calibration curves, all R² values were more than 0.9. This ensures high reliability for quantitative analysis. The qualitative analysis could determine the series of microplastics flowing into the MWTP, but could not confirm the chemical composition of each microplastic. This study can be used to confirm the chemical composition of microplastics introduced into MWTP in the future research.

In this paper, we propose a novel manipulator intended for the needs of telerobotic micromanipulation. We designed an original manipulator capable of performing fine motion with an accuracy greater than $2{\mu}m$, while remaining simple in design and easy in control. Preliminary calculations of manipulator accuracy have been conducted, and the device has been designed and manufactured accordingly. The accuracy of the proposed manipulator has been verified during the series micro-positioning experiments under different types of controllers, and the results proved that the manipulator is suitable for micromanipulation applications as a part of telerobotic system. The proposed manipulator has been compared to existing analogues by several parameters, and both its advantages and disadvantages have been discussed.

Microalgal biotechnology has gained prominence because of the ability of microalgae to produce value-added products including biodiesel through photosynthesis. However, carbon and nutrient source is often a limiting factor for microalgal growth leading to higher input costs for sufficient biomass production. Use of municipal wastewater as a low cost alternative to grow microalgae as well as to treat the same has been demonstrated in this study using mini raceway open ponds. Municipal wastewater was collected after primary treatment and microalgae indigenous in the wastewater were encouraged to grow in open raceways under optimum conditions. The mean removal efficiencies of TN, TP, COD-$_{Mn}$, $NH_3$-N after 6 days of retention time was 80.18%, 63.56%, 76.34%, and 96.74% respectively. The 18S rRNA gene analysis of the community revealed the presence of Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus obliquus as the dominant microalgae. In addition, 16S rRNA gene analysis demonstrated that Rhodobacter, Luteimonas, Porphyrobacter, Agrobacterium, and Thauera were present along with the microalgae. From these results, it is concluded that microalgae could be used to effectively treat municipal wastewater without aerobic treatment, which incurs additional energy costs. In addition, municipal wastewater shall also serve as an excellent carbon and nitrogen source for microalgal growth. Moreover, the microalgal biomass shall be utilized for commercial purposes.

이동통신 무선망 설계 시에는 전파강도가 부족하여 발생하는 부분적인 음영지역을 해결하기 위해서 기지국 신호를 재증폭하는 중계기를 이용하게 된다. 이러한 중계기는 입출력 안테나 사이에 충분한 격리도를 확보하지 않으면 증폭된 출력신호가 입력단으로 유입되어 시스템 발진현상이 발생하게 된다. 격리도에 따라 신호의 신호대잡음비를 저하시키는 수준의 미세발진이 발생하거나 출력증폭기의 한계점에 도달시키는 완전발진이 발생 된다. 기지국에 입력된 신호를 복조하여 신호의 상태에 따라 단말기 출력을 증가시키도록 제어하는 상황에서 이러한 중계기의 발진현상은 시스템 성능의 현저한 저하를 가져오게 된다. 본 논문에서는 실험적으로 발견된 중계기 발진현상을 수학적 모델링을 통하여 중계기의 특성 및 입출력 안테나 사이의 격리도와 미세발진현상과의 관계를 규명한다. 아울러 실험결과와의 비교분석을 통하여 본 논문에서 제시한 모델링의 타당성을 증명한다.

Since 2019, research on microplastics has been actively conducted around the world, so analyzing the differences between domestic and foreign microplastics research can be a milestone in establishing the direction of domestic research. In this study, microplastic papers from KCI and WoS were extracted and the differences between domestic and foreign studies were analyzed using a network analysis methodology based on big data such as author keyword co-occurrence word analysis, thesis co-citation analysis, and author co-citation analysis. As a result of the analysis, the analysis of the research topic confirmed that studies that could affect the human body and the treatment of microplastics in daily life were additionally needed in Korea. In the analysis of the depth of thesis citation that examines the quality of research, it was found that Korea was still insufficient at 2.25 overseas and 1.39 in Korea. In the analysis of the composition of the joint research front, where various researchers participate and share information, 3 out of 22 clusters in Korea are Star type. In the case of overseas, all 19 clusters have a mesh structure, so it was confirmed that information flow and sharing were insufficient in specific research fields in Korea. These research results confirmed the need to expand the research topic of microplastics, improve the quality of research, and improve the research promotion system in which various researchers participate. In addition, if the automation program is developed based on topic modeling, it will be possible to build a system capable of real-time analysis.

In this study, there are regional limitations for the fine dust data provided by public data to represent the wide area air quality. It is about a method that can provide detailed data in a specific area beyond location restrictions. The goal of this implementation is to mount the IoT-based fine dust sensor on a quadcopter that can fly autonomously beyond the positional limitations of the current measuring station, which is fixed, and quickly move the fire-generating area and the area of rapid fine dust to make detailed measurements. Through this, the system is designed and implemented to enable the fundamental analysis of the occurrence. We designed a QDMS system and proposed a method to measure detailed changes in fine dust at a specific location through manufacturing and experiments.

Microalgae have been suggested as a promising feedstock for producing biofuel because of their potential of lipid production. In this study, a first principles ODE model for microalgae growth and neutral lipid synthesis proposed by Surisetty et al. (2010) is investigated for the purpose of maximizing the rate of microalgae growth and the amount of neutral lipid. The model has 6 states and 12 parameters and follows the assumption of Droop model which explains the growth as a two-step phenomenon; the uptake of nutrients is first occurred in the cell, and then use of intra-cellular nutrient to support cells growth. In this study, optimal input design using D-optimality criterion is performed to compute the system input profile and sensitivity analysis is also performed to determine which parameters have a negligible effect on the model predictions. Furthermore, model predictive control based on successive linearization is implemented to maximize the amount of neutral lipid contents.
