To increase the feed value of corn stover after grain harvesting, these studies were conducted to evaluate the methods and effects of intercropping with corn and legume crops, soybean and cowpea. Basic studies were designed to detect the light receiving efficiency of intercrops with change of row-space and interrowspace under plant density of the level of 5,555 plants/l0a. Another study was conducted to select the favorable varieties for intercropping. The plant space of 90 x 20 cm was more effective to increase the light receiving effeciency of intercrop without decrease the yield of corn than that of 60 x 30 cm. Among several corn hybrid/varieties, erect leaf type was desirable for intercropping with high light penetration. Silage yield of intercropping with corn and legume crops increased above 20% without decrease of grain yield of corn compared with monocropping. The silage of intercropping appeared as a good quality roughage bulky feed with high content of crude protein and fat.

Water temperature tolerance of spats of the Manila clam, Ruditapes philippinarum was investigated in the different temperature groups, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35$^{\circ}C$. The survival rates of the groups were 99.7%, 91.0%, 88.7%, 73.3% and 0%, respectively (p < 0.05). When the temperature of the water decreased from 15$^{\circ}C$ to 5$^{\circ}C$, the survival of spats was higher than when the temperature increased. The growth and survival of spats were investigated in different types of bottom substrates in the tanks. The spats grew the best in the polyvinyl plates, the average shell length was 3.9 ${\pm}$ 0.4 mm. In the FRP tank bottom and sand bottom, the average shell lengths of spats were 3.6 ${\pm}$ 0.3 mm and 3.2 ${\pm}$ 0.3 mm, respectively. The best survival of spats cultured in the FRP tank bottom (22.9 g) and in the polyvinyl plates (20.6 g) (p < 0.05).

MILD(Moderate or Intense Low-oxygen Dilution) combustion has attracted attention as the clean thermal energy technology due to the lower emissions of unburnt carbon and NO_x. MILD combustion aims to enlarge the combustion reaction zone using the spontaneous ignition phenomenon of the reactants. In this study, the ignition delay time of CH₄ according to the initial temperature of reactants and the addition of CO, H₂ was investigated using a numerical approach. Ignition delay time became shorter as the increases of initial temperature and H₂ addition. But, CO addition to the fuel increase the ignition delay time. In case of H₂ addition to the fuel, the ignition delay time decreased because the higher fraction of HO₂ promotes the decomposition of methyl radical(CH₃) and produce OH radical. However, in case of CO addition to the fuel, ignition delay time inceased because a high proportion of HCO consumes H radical. There was no significant effect of HCO on the reduction of ignition delay time. Also, the increase rates of NO emissions by the addition of CO and H₂ were approximately 7% and 1%, respectively. A high proportion of NCO affects the increase in NO production rate.

When the multi-stage combustion process is applied to the cement kiln to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions in the cement industry, oxidation/reduction section that can increase combustion efficiency by reducing NO_x to NO and completely burning unburned materials is essential In this study, when applied the oxidation/reduction system of the cement kiln preheater and calciner, the optimal oxidation/reduction calcination crisis that can secure the quality stability of the final product, cement clinker, was to be observed macroscopically, and the mass change of raw materials according to the burning conditions, decarbonation rate, and calcination rate were investigated. The results showed that the thermal decomposition of raw materials tends to be promoted in the oxidation condition rather than in the reduction condition, and that the thermal decomposition of limestone, which has a relatively high CaO content, is carried out later than that of cement raw meal, which is thought to be caused by the CO₂ fractionation in the kiln. The thermal decomposition properties of raw materials according to oxidation/reducing burning condition showed a relatively large difference in temperature range lower than normal limestone themal decomposition temperature, which is thought to be expected to improve the thermal efficiency of raw materials according to the formation of oxidation condition in the section 750℃ of burning temperature. However, for this study, lab scale. Because there is a difference from the field process as a scale study, it is deemed necessary to verify the actual test results of the pilot scale.

A survey of transovarially transmitted diseases, including salmonellosis [(pullorum disease; PD)/(fowl typhoid; FT)], mycoplasmosis, avian infectious anemia (CIA), and fowl adenovirus infection was conducted in the breeder chickens from August to December in 2009. The numbers of flocks sampled out were: Grand Parents Stock (GPS), 45; Parents Stock (PS) 1,018, Baeksemi breeder (BSB) 54. The seroprevalence of salmonellosis (PD/FT) were 0% (GPS), 3.2% (PS), and 3% (BSB), respectively. A total of 983 chicken farms were affected with FT outbreaks between 2000 and 2008. The incidence of FT in commercial broilers, Baeksemi, commercial layers, native chickens, and broiler breeders was 44.3%, 26.2%, 15.7%, 12.6% and 1.08%, respectively. Of the affected broilers, over 90% birds were under 2 weeks of age, indicating it was possible that they were infected with S. gallinarum via vertical transmission. The sero-positive flocks against Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) were 71.1% (GPS), 88.7% (PS), 88.7% (BSB), while the rates of positive flocks against Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) were 86.0% (GPS), 77.0% (PS), and 98.0% (BSB). In GP and parent farms, the detection rates on specific genes of CIA virus were 19/45 (42.2%), and 169/1039 (18.0%), respectively, whereas the seroprevalence of CIA were 86.0% in GPS and 93.7% in PS flocks. In addition, positive flocks of fowl adenoviruses were 4.4% (GPS), 2.7% (PS) and 9.35% (BSB), respectively. As the results, avian mycoplasmosis and CIA have been more prevailing in chicken breeder than avian salmonellosis and fowl adenovirus infection in Korea.

This study was conducted to examine in vitro developmental ability of porcine embryos after somatic cell nuclear transfer. The porcine ear fell was cultured in vitro for confluency in serum-starvation condition(TCM-199 + 0.5% FBS) far 3~6 days of cell confluency. The zona pellucida of IVM oocytes were partially drilled using laser system. Single somatic cell was individually transferred into enucleated oocytes. And the reconstructed embryos were electrically fused(single DC 1.9kv/cm, 30$\mu$ sec) with 0.3M mannitol. After electrofusion, embryos were activated(single AC 5v/mm, 5sec) and cultured in HCSU-23 medium containing 10% FBS at 39$^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ in air for 6 to 8 days. The fusion rate of donor cells was 45.6, 36.8 and 46.1% in 3~4, 5~6 days of serum starvation and non serum starvation(N-S), and were 52.7. 53.0 and 51.7% in 1~2. 5~6 and 13~14 passages of donor cell culture, respectively. No significant difference was found in the fusion rate of donor cells by the duration of serum starvation treatment or the number of donor cell passages. By the size of donor cells, however, the fusion rate was significantly higher(P<0.05) for reconstructed embryos derived from 25r $\mu$m $\geq$ site of donor cells (65.3%) than that of 25~30$\mu$ m(42.5%) or 30$\mu$ m(45.5%)$\leq$ cells. The cleavage rate was significantly (P<0.05) higher in 3~4 darts of serum starvation treatment(67.1%) than that in N-S (50.7%) or 5~6 days of starvation(57.1%). The activation rate by the size of donor cells in fused oocytes was 56.5, 68.8 and 58.5%, respectively, and was not significant.

17~18% 대역의 고효율 결정질실리콘 태양전지를 양산하기 위하여 국내외에서 다양한 연구개발이 수행되고 있으며 국내 다결정실리콘 태양전지 양산에서도 새로운 구조와 개념에 입각한 공정기술과 관련 장비의 국산화에 집중적인 투자를 진행하고 있다. 주지하는 바와 같이, 태양전지의 광전효율은 표면에 입사되는 태양광의 반사를 제외하면 흡수된 광자에 의해 생성되는 전자-정공쌍의 상대적인 비율인 내부양자효율에 의존하게 된다. 실제 생성된 전자-정공쌍은 기판재료의 결정상태와 전기광학적 물성 등에 의해 일부가 재결합되어 2차적인 광자의 생성이나 열로서 작용하고 최종적으로 전자와 정공이 완전히 분리되고 전극에 포집되어 실질적인 유효전류로 작용한다. 16% 이상의 고효율 결정질 실리콘 태양전지 양산이 요구되고 있는 현실에서 광전효율 개선 위해 가장 우선적으로 고려되어야 할 변수는 입력 태양광스펙트럼에 대한 결정질 실리콘 표면반사율을 최소화하여 광흡수를 극대화하는 것이라 할 수 있다. 현재까지 다결정 실리콘 표면을 화학적으로 혹은 플라즈마이온으로 50-100nm 직경의 바늘형 피라미드형상으로 texturing 함으로 단파장대역에서 광반사율의 감소를 기대할 수 있기 때문에 결정질실리콘 태양전지효율 개선에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 고효율 다결정실리콘 태양전지 양산공정에 적용하기 위해 마스크를 사용하지 않는, RIE기반 건식 저반사율 결정질실리콘 표면 texturing 패턴연구를 수행하였다. 마스크없이 표면 texturing이 완료된 시료들에 대하여 A1.5G 표준태양광스펙트럼의 300-1100nm 파장대역에서 반사율과 minority carrier들의 life time 분포를 측정하고 검토하여 공정조건을 최적화 하였다. 저반사율의 건식 결정질실리콘 표면 texturing에 가장 적합한 플라즈마파워는 100W 내외로 낮았고 $SF_6/O_2$ 혼합비율은 0.8~0.9 범위엿다. 본 연구에서 확인된 최적의 texturing을 위한 플라즈마공정 조건은 이온에 의한 Si표면원자들의 스퍼터링과 화학반응에 의한 증착이 교차하는 상태로서 확인된 최저 평균반사율은 ~14% 내외였고 p-형 결정질실리콘 표면 texturing 패턴과 minority carrier의 life time 상관는 단결정이 16uS대역에서 14uS대역으로 감소하는 반면에서 다결정은 1.6uS대역에서 1.7uS대역으로 오히려 미세한 증가를 보여 다결정 웨이퍼생산과정에서 발생하는 saw-damage 제거의 긍정적 효과와 texturing공정의 표면 결함발생에 의한 부정적 효과가 상쇄되어 큰 변화를 보이지 않는 것으로 해석된다.

This research sought to determine the status of the installation and operation of composting facilities of domestic public resource-making facilities and come up with corresponding improvement measures. The composting facilities were the most extensively installed of related facilities with over a 0.5 ton treated volume per day. The monthly and yearly carry-in volume of food waste were found to stand at 1,101.7 tons per day and 930.9 tons per day, thus falling short of the average planned volume of 1,270.9 tons. Many composting facilities, which were installed in areas for which factory registration were not approved, did not get approvals. Composting facilities underwent operation stoppage mainly due to faulty fermentation and crushing equipment. Mainly metals contained in food waste caused faults to the crushing equipment, thus requiring a facility designing against faults and corrosion. The initial water content was found to stand at 50-60%, thus complying with the requirement. However, since the composting food waste had an appropriate mixture of sawdust, food waste, and returned compost, it should meet the initial conditions. For fermentation facilities, the duration time for fermentation was 15 days, and post-fermentation tanks required 21 days of duration time, thus establishing the minimum criteria. However, some facilities did not meet the requirements, taking more time in decomposition, thus suggesting a need to determine the duration time according to facilities. In composting food waste, microorganism-based thermal oxidizer-operated fermentation tanks should be used to ensure an economic operation. On the contrary, 14 out of 25 survey targets heated fermentation tanks in any form. These thermal facilities contain the growth of bacteria, lowering chemical reaction in composting; thus composting facilities should be basically designed to use microorganism-based thermal oxidizers in drying water. An average daily volume of food waste and supplementary materials that was injected in producing compost was 22.8 tons. This volume produced 7.3 tons of compost per day, decreasing 68%. Properties of produced compost were analyzed by its color, absence or presence of remaining decomposition heat, and smell, to assess the quality. As a result, the composting process was not properly installed nor operated in about 50% of composting facilities. Compost should be produced to be soil-friendly.

Simulation study and validation on 50 L/hr pilot-scale Bunsen process was carried out in order to investigate thermodynamics parameters, suitable reactor type, separator configuration, and the optimal conditions of reactors and separation. Sulfur-Iodine is thermochemical process using iodine and sulfur compounds for producing hydrogen from decomposition of water as net reaction. Understanding in phase separation and reaction of Bunsen Process is crucial since Bunsen Process acts as an intermediate process among three reactions. Electrolyte Non-Random Two-Liquid model is implemented in simulation as thermodynamic model. The simulation results are validated with the thermodynamic parameters and the 50 L/hr pilot-scale experimental data. The SO₂ conversions of PFR and CSTR were compared as varying the temperature and reactor volume in order to investigate suitable type of reactor. Impurities in H₂SO₄ phase and HI_X phase were investigated for 3-phase separator (vapor-liquid-liquid) and two 2-phase separators (vapor-liquid & liquid-liquid) in order to select separation configuration with better performance. The process optimization on reactor and phase separator is carried out to find the operating conditions and feed conditions that can reach the maximum SO₂ conversion and the minimum H₂SO₄ impurities in HI_X phase. For reactor optimization, the maximum 98% SO₂ conversion was obtained with fixed iodine and water inlet flow rate when the diameter and length of PFR reactor are 0.20 m and 7.6m. Inlet water and iodine flow rate is reduced by 17% and 22% to reach the maximum 10% SO₂ conversion with fixed temperature and PFR size (diameter: 3/8", length:3 m). When temperature (121℃) and PFR size (diameter: 0.2, length:7.6 m) are applied to the feed composition optimization, inlet water and iodine flow rate is reduced by 17% and 22% to reach the maximum 10% SO₂ conversion.
