최근 문제시 되고있는 지구온난화 현상은 태양으로부터 발산된 태양파 중 지구 표면에 흡수되지 않은 일부 반사 에너지파와 지구표면 자체에서 발산하는 에너지파가 온난화가스들에 의하여 대기권 밖으로 발산되지 못하고 흡수되어 대기의 온도를 상승시키는 것에 기인한다. 이산화탄소는 이와같은 지구온난화 현상에 절반 이상의 영향을 미치고 있으며, 날로 증가하는 에너지 소모량에 의하여 대기중 이산화탄소의 농도가 계속 증가하고 있다. 따라서, 1988년 토론토 회의 이후, 각종 국제회의에서 이산화탄소 배출 규제문제가 논의되고 있으며, 연소 배 가스로부터 이산화탄소를 제거하는 기술에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 각종 지구온난화 가스의 분리 회수기술로는 흡수법, 흡착법, 막분리법, 산소연소법 등이 개발되어 있으나, 이산화탄소의 경우 상용화 되어있는 분리기술은 흡수법으로서, 알카놀아민을 이용한 화학흡수법이 가장 널리 사용되고 있다.(중략)

In order to produce high concentration of sodium gluconate, optimization of the fermentation conditions, such as glucose concentration, inoculum size, dissolved oxygen concentration and glucose feeding method, was examined. When the glucose concentration was maintained in the range of 30∼50 g/L during the batch fermentation, glucose conversion yield and productivity were 92.2% and 6.0 g/L/hr, respectively. In the case of the low concentration below 30 g/L, the yield decreased by about 25%. As the inoculum size increased above 20%(w/v), lag phase was shortened but the productivity decreased. The dissolved oxygen level of 60∼70% was shown to be the threshold point for 75% of increase in the productivity of sodium gluconate. Finally, optimal glucose feeding rate was determined using various feeding methods such as exponential feeding, feeding based on the average glucose consumption rate and was determined using various feeding methods such as exponential feeding, feeding based on the average glucose consumption rate and on the oxygen uptake rate and etc. Our result shows that glucose feeding, based on the oxygen uptake rate is a very simple, efficient and robust method, especially when oxygen is consumed as a substrate for the bioconversion. Using the above glucose feeding strategy under the optimized condition, 255 g/L of sodium gluconate concentration, 12 g/L/hr of productivity and 95% of glucose conversion yield were achieved with A. niger ACM53.

To verify the utilization of fluff refuse derived fuel (RDF) as energy source, the combustion charateristic has been studied by an experimental combustion furnace under various temperatures. The characteristics of flue gas, dust and residue from fluff RDF combustion has been analyzed and compared with those of pelletized RDF. From this work, it was found that the incomplete combustion of fluff RDF was greater than that of pelletized RDF because the combustion reaction rate of fluff RDF was faster than that of pelletized RDF, and oxgen concentration in fluff RDF combustion decreased rapidly. It was also found that carbon monoxide concentration of flue gas from fluff RDF combustion increased with combustion temperature because the oxygen consumption and the incomplete combustion increased. Therefore, it is felt that the combustion operation conditions of fluff RDF should be carefully determined.

The objective of this research was to assess the effect of moisture content and water injection method into the landfill on waste decomposition in an aerobic landfill. Firstly, respirometric experiments were performed in order to assess the effect of initial moisture content (20%, 30%, 40% and 50% respectively) on landfilled waste decomposition. The cumulative oxygen uptake and oxygen uptake rate were highly increased with the increase of initial moisture content. Secondly, lysimeter experiments showed that in comparison with the vertical injection method, dry fog system enhanced decomposition of organic wastes. Also, dry fog system provided uniform moisture distribution more than the vertical injection method within landfill.

본 연구에서는 화재시 대규모 피해가 우려되는 승용차 밀집 공간을 가정하여 인접한 승용차로의 화재 전파 특성을 파악하기 위한 실물화재 실험을 실시하였다. 실험은 인접한 두 대의 승용차중 한 대의 차량에 화재를 발생시켜 화재가 성장되고 전파되는 과정을 분석하였으며, 산소소모율법을 적용한 발열량 측정이 동시에 이루어 졌다. 측정 결과 최대 열방출율은 약 9MW로 측정되어 선행된 승용차 한 대의 측정 발열량보다 약 2.5배이상 높은 범위의 값으로 평가되었다. 특히, 인접된 승용차로의 전파는 화재 발생후 약 3분 30초 경과후 창문으로 출화된 화염에 의하여 옆 차량에 화재가 전파되기 시작하였으며, 15분 경과후 완전히 화재가 전이되어 발달되었다. 따라서, 밀폐된 주차장에서의 화재시 발생초기에 가연 공간에서 화재가 진화가 이루어지지 않으면 약 3분 내에 다른 차량으로의 화재 전파가 우려 되며, 이후 급격한 피해를 줄 수 있는 상태로 화재가 성장하기 때문에 신속한 초기 대응이 필요함을 확인하였다. 이러한 실물화재실험에서 얻어낸 결과는 향후 여러 수치해석의 입력 조건으로 활용이 가능할 것이며, 화재 안전 설비 계획에 기본 자료로서 이용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The Biochemical Oxygen Demand(BOD) is one of important parameters for the most widely used method of organic pollution in wastewater and wastewater treatment effluent. As the conventional BOD test needs 5-day long incubation period, it is thus incompatible with real time control of wastewater treatment plant. To resolve this problem, in the present study an on-line Dissolved Oxygen(DO) monitoring system was used to observe the transient change of dissolved oxygen concentration in livestock wastewater. The system was composed of BOD sensor, amplifier and computer. It was observed that the concentration of the microorganism in the livestock wastewater was relatively constant during the growth period of initial one hour, which allowed the assumption of the constant Oxygen Uptake Rate(OUR) within one hour of measurement. It was thus concluded that the present scheme provided a protocol for automatic measurement of BOD in livestock wastewater, which can be applicable to optimal control of livestock wastewater treatment plant.

The novel microbial process such as Anammox(anaerobic ammonium oxidation) and Canon(completely autotrophic nitrogen removal over nitrite) processes is promising biotechnology to remove nitrogen from ammonium-rich wastewater like anaerobic sludge digester liquid. In this research, a new Canon-type nitrogen removal process adopting upflow granular sludge bed type configuration was investigated on its feasibility and process performance, using synthetic wastewater and sludge digester liquids. Air as an oxygen source was provided in an external aeration chamber with flow recirculation. In the first experiment using the synthetic wastewater(up to 110 mg $NH_4$-N $L^{-1}$), the ammonium removal was about 95%(92% for T-N) at effective hydraulic retention time(HRT) for 3.8 days. In the second experiment using the sludge digester liquids($438{\pm}26$ mg $NH_4$-N $L^{-1}$), the total nitrogen removal was $94{\pm}1.7%$ at HRT for 5.4 days and $76{\pm}1.5%$ at HRT for 3.8 days, respectively. Little nitrite and nitrate were observed in the effluent of both experiments. The process revealed quite a lower oxygen($0.29{\sim}0.59$ g $O_2$ $g^{-1}N$) and less alkalinity($3.1{\sim}3.4$ g $CaCO_3$ $g^{-1}N$) consumption as compared to other new technology in microbial nitrogen removal. The process also offers the economical compact reactor configuration with excellent biomass retention, resulting in lower cost for investment and maintenance.

This study was carried out to investigate whether the K-pNPPase activity in renal cortical slices can be used as an index for measuring the activity of $Na^+-K^+$ exchange pump. The K-pNPPase activity, Ouabain-sensitive oxygen consumption add intracellular electrolytes content in slices, and Na-K-ATPase activity in microsome were measured and the effects of ouabain and vanadate on these were observed. The results are as follows : 1) p-NPPase activity in slices increased linearly with incubation time during 60 minutes, and $K^+$-dependent, ouabain-sensitive fraction was about 55% of total p-NPPase activity. This value was almost the same through out the incubation time. 2) The concentrations of ouabain and vanadate for 50f inhibition of K-pNPPase activity were$7.0{\times}10^{-6}M$ and $1.3{\times}10^{-5}M$, respectively. 3) The ouabain-sensitive oxygen consumption in slices was reduced to 50% of control value by $6.3{\times}10^{-6}M$ ouabain or $2.5{\times}10^{-5}M$ vanadate. These concentrations were similar to those for 50% inhibition of K-pNPPase activity. 4) The trends of intracellular electrolytes change by ouabain and vanadate were similar to those of the change in K-pNPPase activity. 5) The Na-K-ATPase activity in microsome prepared from renal cortex was completely inhibited by $10^{-3}M$ ouabain or $10^{-3}M$ vanadate and the concentration for 50% inhibition was $1.2{\times}10^{-6}M$ in ouabain and $1.6{\times}10^{-6}M$ in vanadate, which were much lower than those for K-pNPPase activity or ouabain-sensitive oxygen consumption in slices. These results indicate that K-pNPPase activity measured in renal cortical slices is a better index for evaluating $Na^+-K^+$ exchange pump activity than Na-K-ATPase activity measured in microsome.

This paper presents the results of recent nutrients measurement and analysis in relation to other environmental parameters such as temperature, salinity, AOU and pH in the South Sea, Korea. In summer, temperature showed stronger correlation with nutrients than salinity and also did the parameters related to biological activities such as pH and AOU. Implications of above results exemplify that primary producers in the vicinity of salt front actively consumed nutrients so that nutrients-salinity correlation is strongly modified in the salt front. Nutrient in winter showed significant correlation only with temperature. Nutrient distribution seems governed by the location of thermal front between vertically mixed cold water in northern area and warm waters flowing north. Due to weak biological activity in winter pH-nutrients correlation, which was strongest in summer ($R^2$ >0.6) dropped sharply in winter ($R^2$ <0.5). Depth integrated nitrate+nitrite, phosphate and silicate values are 321 $mmol{\cdot}m^{-2}$, 23 $mmol{\cdot}m^{-2}$, 637 $mmol{\cdot}m^{-2}$ in summer and 261 $mmol{\cdot}m^{-2}$, 31 $mmol{\cdot}m^{-2}$, 742 $mmol{\cdot}m^{-2}$ in winter, respectively. NIP values in summer exhibit phosphorus deficiency, however, winter situation is reversed for nitrogen. Nitrogen input via precipitation and riverine discharge in wet season seems potentially critical for maintaining the South Sea ecosystem.
