분리막 기술은 탁월한 처리효율뿐 아니라 안정적으로 용수를 생산할 수 있는 장점이 있기 때문에 용수의 생산을 전통적인 수처리 (Conventional water treatment) 공정에서 역삼투 공정(Reverse Osmosis) 및 나노여과 (Nanofiltration)와 같은 분리막 기술을 활용하는 공정으로 변환하는 추세에 있다. 그러나 분리막 공정은 항상 막오염 현상이 문제점으로 지목되고 있기 때문에 막오염 제어 기술의 확보가 시급한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화학물질의 사용에 따른 2차 환경오염 문제가 발생하는 화학약품이나 물리적인 세정이 아닌 고전압 임펄스 (HVI, High Voltage Impulse) 장치를 이용하여 막오염의 근본적인 문제를 제어하려 한다.

본 논문은 필터 뱅크의 저전력 구조와 유연성 구조를 위한 구현 방법을 제안한다. 이와 같은 특성을 갖도록 하기 위하여 블록 필터를 필터 뱅크에 사용하였다. 블록 필터를 데시메이션 필터에 적용함으로써, 블록 필터의 병렬-직렬 변화기와 다운 샘플러가 상쇄됨을 보인다. 인터폴레이션 필터에서도 마찬가지로, 업 샘플러와 블록 필터의 직렬-병렬 변환기가 상쇄되어 효율적인 구조가 만들어짐을 보인다. 더 나아가, 블록 필터를 Uniform 필터 뱅크에 적용함으로써 분석 단자 합성 단의 첫 번째 채널 필터가 모든 채널에 공유될 수 있음을 보인다. 이와 같은 공유를 통하여 계산량이 현저히 감소된 필터 뱅크를 구현할 수 있었다. 또한 블록 필터 뱅크는 필터 뱅크의 차수 변환에 따른 하드웨어의 가감이 매우 용이하여 유연성을 갖는 구조임을 보인다.

In this paper, we suggests a WIP (Work In Process) of FMC (Flexible Manufacturing Cell) analysis methods based on the TPN (Time Petri Nets) unfolding. Unfolding of PN is a partial order-based method for the verification of concurrent system without the state space explosion. The aim of this work is to formulate the general cyclic state scheduling problem to minimize the WIP to satisfy economical constraints. The method is based on unfolding of the original net into the equivalent acyclic description.

오늘날 영상정보의 보편화로 효율적인 영상 검색 기술이 요구되고 있다. 최근 발표된 Color N$\times$M-grams 기반의 영상 검색 방법은 그 중의 하나이다. 그러나 이 방법은 영상의 특징을 추출한 벡터 Bin의 수가 많아서 검색을 위한 공간과 시간을 많이 필요로 하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 영상의 국부성을 이용하여 Color N$\times$M-grams의 단점인 공간과 시간의 비효율성을 개선하고, GLCM의 결합으로 검색 효율을 향상시키는 연구를 수행하였다. WWW의 Color Draw Photo Album에 분류되어 있는 영상들과 미국의 코넬대학의 연구에 사용된 330개의 Benchmark 영상을 가지고 실험한 결과, 기존의 Color N$\times$M-grams에 비해 약 10배의 공간효율개선과 약 2배의 시간효율개선을 얻을 수 있었고, 검색율과 정확성공율에 있어서 각각 25%, 63% 향상되었다.

This work investigated a fabrication way of stable platinized Ti electrode and evaluated the electrochemical characteristics of the Sn-modified platinized Ti electrode in nitrate solution. A Pt electro-plating way to form some open special clearances within the Pt coating layer on etched Ti substrate was very important to remove effectively the residual contaminate due to plating solution out of the fabricated electrode surface and to maximize the actual electrode surface area contacting solution. Both boiling and electro-cleaning processes of the fabricated electrode was essential to obtain a stable platinized-Pt electrode with reproducible and stable surface property which was necessary for the correct evaluation of Sn coverage on the electrode. The electro-cleaning caused a morphology change of the platinized Ti electrode surface with some downy hair-like polyps formed during the deposition disappearing, which made the electrode stable. The Sn-modified platinized Ti electrode in this work showed the best electro-activity for nitrate reduction, when it was fabricated through the Pt electro-plating of about 30 minutes.

This study, which was tarried out to investigate the characteristics of permeation rates and fouling phenomena in drinking-water treating processes with MF membrane, showed that pressure drop was dependent on the length of membrane module and operating pressure; the pressure drop increased with the length of membrane module and operating pressure, operation at a relatively low pressure(0.5kg/$cm^2$) is better than that at a relatively (2.0kg/$cm^2$), since high operating pressure accelerates the clogging. In case of out-in permeation type, almost same flux was obtained after a certain operating time regardless of membrane length and operating pressure. In order to understand, the microbial fouling, chemical cleaning was carried out to the forced contaminated hollow-fiber membrane with chemicals($H_2O_2$, NaOCl, and NaOH). Chemical cleanings with $H_2O_2$and NaOCl, which are oxidizing agents, are better for sterilizing and desorbing the microbes than those with NaOH.

Recovery of low level nitric acid and sulfuric acid ions, which were contained in wastewater of a wet scrubber for de-NOx and de-SOx from ship engines, was attempted as fertilizing materials. This study utilized a selective extraction method using four organic solvents to precipitate the solid salts of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate. The IR analysis showed almost same composition of the extracted ammonium salts with a commercial product, and recovery rate of nitrogen and sulfuric ions was 89% and 80% respectively. It was found that the selectivity and solubility consequently could be the crucial factors to recover the low level ions from the waste scrubbing water.

Deactivated three-way catalysts which had been exposed to gasoline engine exhaust for a long time were remanufactured by ultra sonic cleaning with distilled water, sulfuric acid solution and impregnation with precious metals (Pt, Pd, Rh). The catalytic properties as well as conversion reactivity of CO, THC and NOx about fresh, aged and remanufactured catalysts were examined. Most of the pollutants deposited on the aged three-way catalysts were removed in the remanufacturing process of those catalysts. At the same time a little amount of precious metals like Pt and Pd were removed in the remanufacturing process. Under the experimental condition used in this study, in the case of the remanufactured catalysts with impregnation of precious metals, the catalytic activities were recovered to almost the same level, or higher level of that of the fresh catalyst.

To select a promising technologies for removal of odorous gases emitted from a wastewater pump station, four methods such as activated carbon (A/C) adsorption, chemical absorption (acid and alkali scrubber), and two biofilters (polyurethane (PU) and worm cast) were investigated. The average odor removal efficiencies in the PU biofilter and A/C column was over 98%, but in a worm cast biofilter and chemical absorption were below 60-80%. The removal efficiency of PU biofilter was very stable (about 98-99%) in the range of retention times of 4-36s, and a maximum elimination capacity was $1.6${\times}$10^{ 7}$ $OUm^{-3}$$h^{-1}$ Deodorization costs for an activated carbon adsorption and a biofiltration method were investigated. With increasing odor intensity, the operating cost of the A/C column increased linearly, but the operating cost of the biofilteration increased slightly. The capital cost in a biofilter is about two times higher than that in an A/C column, but the operating cost is very lower than that of in A/C column. In conclusion, the biofiltration was evaluated one of the most promising technologies to control odor in a wastewater pump station.

Combined membrane process of ceramic microfiltration (MF) and polymer ultrafiltration (UF) was optimized for the removal of color and total organic carbon (TOC) from textile wastewater. Membrane regeneration was performed for the efficient operation by backflushing and chemical cleaning. Flux of 10.3% increased by the pulse backflushing of 1 second every 2 minutes in ceramic microfiltration. Membrane regeneration of 97% was obtained by chemical cleaning with 0.1% sodium hydroxide in polymer ultrafiltration. The removal efficiency of TOC, color and SS (suspended solid) were 84.6%, 97.4% and 100%, respectively. The combined process was found to be suitable for the removal of color and residual organics from textile wastewater.
