The effect of recirculated exhaust gas on performance and exhaust emissions with FGR rate are investigated by using a natural circulation, pressurized draft and water tube boiler with FGR system operating at several boiler loads and over fire air damper openings. The purpose of this study is to apply the FGR system to a power plant boiler for reducing $NO_x$ emissions. To activate the combustion, the OFA with 0 to 20% is supplied into the flame. When the suction damper of two stage combustion system installed in the upper side of wind box is opened by handling the lever between $0^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$, also, the combustion air supplied to burner is changed. It is found that the fuel consumption rate per evaporation rate did not show an obvious tendency to increase or decrease with rising the FGR rate, and $NO_x$ emissions at the same OFA damper opening are decreased, as FGR rates are elevated and boiler loads are dropped. While a trace amount of soot is emitted without regard to the operation conditions of boiler load, OFA damper opening and FGR rate, because soot emissions are eliminated by the electrostatic precipitator with a collecting efficiency of 86.7%.

The objective of this study is to develop sustainable PVA fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (FRCCs) that could exhibit comparable strength level to normal PVA FRCCs with no recycled materials. To evaluate mechanical properties of the FRCCs, compressive, flexural and direct tensile tests were conducted. In addition to the test, to calculate amount of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) emission at the stage of manufacturing the FRCCs, life cycle inventory data base (LCI DB) were referenced from domestic and Japan. From the test results, the mechanical properties such as compressive, flexural and direct tensile strengths were decreased as the replacement ratio of recycled materials increased. And it was determined that the amount of $CO_2$ emission was reduced for the specimens with higher water-binder ratio (W/B) and replacement ratios. It was also found that binder intensity ($B_i$) value was higher as replacement ratio of fly ash (FA) increased. This result means that larger amount of FA is need to deliver one unit of a given performance indicator (1 MPa of strength) of FRCCs compared to that of ordinary portland cement (OPC). As a result, it could be concluded that FRCCs with W/B 45% replaced by FA 25% and recycled sand (RS) 25% is desirable for both target performance and $CO_2$ emission.

The amount of the tritium released from Wolsong units during the WTRF operation is predicted. The profiles of tritium concentration in moderators and PHTs as variation of WTRF service allotment for each Wolsong unit are calculated, and the tritium releases are obtained from these tritium concentration profiles. The tritium concentration in moderator will be decreased down under 10 Ci/kg in 2013 and the yearly tritium release will be reduced below 25% of WTRF start year.

Recently, the production of circulating fluidized bed combustion ash has been increased in thermal power plants. The addition of limestone for the desulfurizing effect of circulating fluidized bed boiler ash increases the content of CaO and $SO_3$ contained in ash, which is higher than the free fly ash in general fly ash. Unlike conventional fly ash, the circulating fluidized bed combustion ash has a high reactivity when it comes into contact with water due to its hydraulic properties and high free-CaO content. The aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of non-sintered binder by using self-cementing properties of circulating fluidized bed combustion ash. The mechanical and hydration characteristics were investigated according to the content of CFBC ash. In addition, the effects of gymsum type and content on the compressive strength and micro-structure of non-sintered binder pastes.

최근 지역의 발전으로 인한 도시화로 인해 수문순환에 많은 변화가 생기고 있다. 이와 더불어 기후변화로 인해 강우의 패턴이 변화하면서 연간 강우량은 증가하고 있는 추세로 나타나고 있다. 또한 무강우일수가 증가하여 강우가 특정기간에 집중되어 내려 도심지에서는 유출량과 첨두유량이 급격하게 증가하고 도달시간이 짧아졌으며, 지하로 함양되는 수자원이 줄어들고 있다. 이와 같이 변화하는 수문순환으로 인해 수자원 확보에 대한 문제가 발생하고, 2차적으로 지하수위의 저하 등으로 지반침하, 싱크홀 등의 피해가 발생하고 있다. 이와같은 피해를 방지하기 위해 최근 LID(Low Impact Development, 저영향개발) 등의 기법을 이용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 도시화가 진행 중인 평택지역을 대상으로 지하수자원 관리를 위해 LID 기법 중 투수성 포장재를 적용하고 이에 대한 효과 분석을 Visual MODFLOW를 통해 진행한다. 각 지역의 효과 분석 결과로 TOPSIS를 이용하여 투수성 포장재 우선 적용 지역을 선정한다. 이를 통해 한정된 자원 내에서 우선지역을 선정하여 최선의 효과를 나타내도록 한다.

Aggregate resources in Korea are expected to run out owing to an increase in development demand and construction investment. Recycled concrete aggregates (RCA), extracted from waste concrete, have a lower quality than natural aggregates. However, RCA can produce concrete similar in quality to the normal concrete by aggregate pretreatment, use of admixtures, and quality control. RCA are most suitable for use in precast concrete products such as sidewalk blocks and revetment blocks. Herein, the feasibility of producing revetment blocks using recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), similar in quality to normal concrete, was analyzed. The amount of RCA was varied, and moderate high early strength cement and steam curing were used to produce the concrete test blocks. In the block test, the load resistance characteristics of the blocks were evaluated to determine optimal RAC and glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar compositions. Thus, the variable that reduced the cement content was determined at the same level as that of natural aggregate concrete by the control of steam curing. In the concrete block test, although this depends on the reinforcement ratio, the RAC block exhibited the same or better performance than a normal concrete block. Therefore, the low quality of RCA in RAC is no longer a problem when concrete mixing and curing are controlled and appropriate reinforcement is used.

최근 도시근교 시설재배토양의 염류 과다집적과 연작장해 발생으로 생산성이 저하되고 있다. 그리고 고품질 연중생산이 가능한 양액 재배 면적이 '93년 23ha에서 '97년 414ha로 급속히 증가되고 있는데 이 중 약12%가 담액경이나 박막수경의 순수 수경재배 방식이 차지하고 있다. 순환식 담액수경 상추재배를 기준으로 할 때 농가 300평 재배시 약 100ton의 양액이 소요되며 이 양액은 1회 재배가 끝난 후 상당량이 폐기되고 있고 고형 배지경 양액 재배의 경우에도 대부분 비 순환식 재배로 1회 관수 후 나오는 배액이 그대로 버려지고 이어 토양 및 지하수 등 환경오염, 자원 낭비 등의 여러 가지 문제를 야기시키고 있다.

At present, about 40 million tons of concrete is dismantled each year, which accounts for the largest portion of the total amount of construction waste with 60.8%. It is known about 97.5% of it is recycled. However, most of the usage of waste concrete is limited to lower value-added business areas, and considering the increasing amount of waste concrete generated due to the deterioration of structures, the need for converting waste concrete to structural concrete is urgent. Therefore, this study aims at estimating the period for the optimum carbonation reforming to improve the quality of recycled aggregate, by making use of the method of accelerated carbonation reforming of the bonding heterogeneous (cement paste and mortar) for the purpose of converting recycled aggregate to structural concrete. Based on the period appropriate for the heterogeneous thickness and each bonding thickness of recycled aggregate which was drawn from previous studies, the changes in the characteristics and physical properties of pore structure according to progress of accelerated carbonation were analyzed. The result shows that with the progress of carbonation, the pore volume and the percentage of water absorption of the bonding heterogeneous decreased and the density increased, which indicates improvement of the product quality. But after certain age, the tendency was reversed and the product quality deteriorated. Synthesizing the results of previous studies and those of the present study, this study proposed 4 days and 14 days respectively for the period for the optimum carbonation reforming of recycled fine aggregate and recycled coarse aggregate.

In this study, to characterize the application of CSA and dihydrate gypsum Utilizing industrial byproducts, we investigated the characteristics of CSA and dihydrate gypsum to investigate the characteristics of Mine Liner according to the addition amount. As a result of compressive strength, length change and absorption rate of mining lime wastewater according to CSA addition amount, up to 30% of CSA showed a positive effect on shrinkage and absorption reduction effect as well as strength at initial age. However, due to excessive use of CSA 50%, it was reduced by 15% compared to OPC due to increase of absorption rate and decrease of cement amount due to over expansion rather than shrinkage compensation and void filling.
