In order to find the effect of flame interaction on NO production, dual laminar diffusion flames issuing from two rectangular nozzles were investigated theoretically. Chemical equilibrium model and Zeldovich mechanism were used in numerical model. The effect of four major parameters on NO production were inspected. These parameters are nozzle spacing, Raynolds number, aspect ratio of nozle cross section and velocity of secondary flow. It is found that interaction of flames enhances production of n. It is also found that multiflames with large spacing, small aspect ratio and strong secondary flow product less n.

폐기물의 플라즈마를 이용한 열분해-가스화-용융 처리공정은 청정연료 형태로 정화된 합성가스를 얻을 수 있고, 이 합성가스를 WGS 반응과 PSA 공법을 이용하면 고순도 수소로의 전환 및 회수가 가능하다. (주)애드플라텍에서는 자체 보유하고 있는 3톤/일급 플라즈마 폐기물 처리설비와 수소 정제/회수시스템을 연계하여, 페기물로부터 고순도 수소 생산($20Nm^3/h$이상)을 위한 플라즈마 폐기물 처리 추소 생산 통합시스템 개발을 진행하고 있다. 합성가스 내 질소 농도를 낮추기 위해 산소를 매질로 하는 100kw급 산소 플라즈마 토치를 제작하였다. 수소 정제/회수 시스템은 폐기물의 플라즈마 처리 후의 합성가스 생성량과 조성의 변화에 대응할 수 있도록 하였으며, WGS 반응기로 들어가는 합성가스를 가스 컴프레서를 통하여 최대 10기압으로 승압시키고, 고농도 일산화탄소의 효과적인 제거 및 열 회수 극대화가 이루어질 수 있는 최적의 가스처리 시스템으로 구현되도록 하였다. 설치 완료된 WGS 반응기의 성능시험을 플라즈마 처리설비와 연계하여 수행하였다. 합성가스 내 각각 34%와 25%의 일산화탄소 및 수소의 농도가 WGS 반응기를 거친 후, 일산화탄소는 0.1% 미만으로 제거되었으며 수소는 44%로 증가하여 WGS 반응기의 성능 수준이 매우 우수함을 확인하였다. 차기 년도에 설치/가동 예정인 수소 생산용 PSA는 최대 10기압 운전 및 상압재생 방식으로 운전되며 생산된 수소는 최소 99.99%이상의 고순도를 유지할 것으로 기대된다.

Air pollution associated with the $NO_x$ emission from the ship engines is becoming one of the major environmental concerns these days. As the regulations on ship pollutants are strengthened, the wet absorption method, for controlling complex pollutants in a confined space, has the advantage of simultaneously removing various pollutants, but the low solubility of nitrogen monoxide is drawback. In this study, for improving existing denitrification scrubber system, NO oxidation process by hydroxyl radical produced from irradiating UV light on $H_2O_2$ is suggested and the $H_2O_2$ decomposition rates and hydroxyl radical quantum yields were measured to find the optimum condition of $H_2O_2$ photolysis reaction. As a result, the optimum quantum yield and photolysis rate of $H_2O_2$ were 0.8798, $0.6mol\;h^{-1}$ at 8 W, 2 M condition, and oxidation efficiency of 1000 ppm NO gas was 40%. In batch system, NO removal efficiency has a range of 65.0 ~ 67.3% according to input gas concentration of 100 ~ 1500 ppm. This results indicate that the scrubber system using hydrogen peroxide photolysis can be applied as air pollution prevention facility of ship engines.

Nitric oxide (NO) is an important intra-intercellular signaling molecule that regulates many physiological processes and participates in the development some pathological conditions in animals. In this study, we compared different methods for determining NO concentration in the hemocytes of Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum. For measuring the intracellular NO levels, we used the specific fluorescent probe 4,5-diaminofluorescein diacetate (DAF-2 DA), and the quantification methods that were compared were based on image analysis, spectrophotometry, and flow cytometry. NO concentration could be determined using all the 3 methods, and the concentration varied significantly depending upon the presence of NO regulators in the hemocytes; NO concentration increased in the presence of L-arginine, while it decreased in the presence of N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester. In particular, it is found that estimation of NO using a flowcytometry is more economical, reliable and accurate compared to image analysis and spectrophotometry. Accordingly we believe that determining NO concentration by using flowcytometry will be useful in evaluating physiological and pathological conditions in marine bivalves.

This study was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant (ABTS, DPPH radical scavenging and reducing power), nitric oxide (NO)) production and anticancer activities against human cancer cells (HeLa HepG2, HT-29 and MCF-7) for methanol extracts of Glycine Semen Germinatum (Daedoowhangkeun in Korean) fermented with germinated black soybean and some bacteria. Antioxidant activities were increased by increasing the concentration of the extract at dose-dependent manner, Their activities of black soybean were higher than those of yellow soybean. Non fermented sample was slightly higher than Glycine Semen Germinatum fermented with Bacillus subtilis and lactic acid bacteria. In 1 mg/mL of the extract NO production levels were $0.374\;{\mu}M$ for yellow soybean, $0.368\;{\mu}M$ for black soybean, and $0.367\;{\mu}M$ and $0.358\;{\mu}M$ for Glycine Semen Germinatum fermented with B. subtilis and lactic acid bacteria, respectively. Methanol extract of Glycine Semen Germinatum fermented with mixture broth of lactic acid bacteria was shown to be the highest activity for anticancer activities against human cancer cells tested and their activities were exhibited in the order of HeLa > HT-29 > HepG2 > MCF-7 cell.

This study selected three types of agglomerated wood charcoal (Agglomerated wood charcoal with charcoal powder, Carbonized wood briquette, Ignition-type of perforated charcoal) that are in circulation in Korea among fuel-type wood products and analyzed the fuel characteristics, harmful substance content, and emissions of air pollutants generated by combustion. The first results showed that charcoal-grilled carbon, which is the raw material of charcoal, produced higher CO than saw-billed carbon. The second result is that the emission standards of air pollutants generated by the combustion of molded wood coal are not up to the emission standards of nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides in the entire product, compared with the emission criteria of the atmospheric environment preservation method (based on 2019, carbon monoxide: 200 ppm, nitrogen oxides, 150 ppm sulfur oxides: 100 ppm), but the carbon dioxide moulding and carbon dioxide levels were not up. Based on the analysis of combustion gas generated during combustion derived from this study, future research is needed for comparing with the emission standards of pellets, which are wood products for fuel, among the existing biomass burning standards and for reducing carbon monoxide generated during incomplete combustion of agglomerated wood charcoal.

The Schizosaccharomyces pombe $sdu1^+$ gene, belonging to the PPPDE superfamily of deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) genes, was previously shown to encode a protein with ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase (UCH) activity and to participate in the response against oxidative and nitrosative stresses. This work focused on the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent regulation of the S. pombe $sdu1^+$ gene. UCH activities, encoded by the $sdu1^+$ gene, were attenuated in the S. pombe cells exposed to $H_2O_2$, superoxide radical-generating menadione (MD), and nitric oxide (NO)-generating sodium nitroprusside (SNP). Reduced glutathione (GSH) and its precursor N-acetylcysteine (NAC) were able to significantly enhance the UCH activities in the absence or presence of $H_2O_2$. However, the influences of both GSH and NAC on the ROS levels in the absence or presence of $H_2O_2$ were opposite to their effects on the UCH activities under the same conditions. The UCH activities in the Sdu1-overexpressing S. pombe cells were also diminished under exposure to $H_2O_2$, MD and SNP, but still remained to be higher than those in the vector control cells. In brief, it is proposed that the S. pombe $sdu1^+$ gene is regulated by ROS in a negative manner, the meaning of which largely remains elusive.

Using gases trapped within natural diamonds as defected by crushing in the sample system of a research mass spectrometer, a proposed gaseous environment for the formation of diamonds is presented. Diamonds crushed under a vacuum of $10^{-9}$torr at a temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ yielded in order of abundance, water, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, carbon monoxide, argon, and ethanol.
