With time, the stable management of turbidity is becoming more important in the water treatment process. So optimization of flocculation is important for the improvement of the sedimentation efficiency. we evaluated the hydrodynamic behavior in the rotation direction (clock-wise, counterclock-wise) of the flocculator in the flocculation basin using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The results of the CFD simulation, in cases where flocculators rotate in a clockwise direction, a stronger flow is formed near the surface of the water where the rotating direction and current of flow correspond. The variance and standard deviation of the flux are about 8.5 and 2.9 respectively. In contrast, in the case of a counterclockwise direction, a stronger flow is formed near the bottom of the basin. The variance and standard deviation of the flux are about 5.3 and 2.3, respectively. The effluent flux is affected more by the third flocculator spin than the first and second flocculator spins. The third flocculator spinning in the counterclockwise direction is better for the uniform flow of the sedimentation basin than the third flocculator spinning in the clockwise direction

본 연구에서는 탄산화법으로 침강성 CaCO$_3$분말을 제조하고 제조된 CaCO$_3$현탁액의 분산안정성을 연구하였다. CaCO$_3$현탁액의 pH 변화와 고분자전해질 PMAA와 PAA의 첨가에 따른 입자크기, 유동학적 특성(점도), zeta potential 및 현탁액의 침강속도 등을 측정하였다. 탄산화법에 의해 약 0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$ 크기와 비표면적이 23.57$m^2$/g인 단분단 calcite형 CaCO$_3$분말을 제조하였다. pH가 11인 CaCO$_3$현탁액에 0.01 wt% PMAA가 첨가된 경우에 우수한 분산안정성을 나타내었는데 이는 CaCO$_3$입자표면에 PMAA의 흡착에 의한 electrosteric 안정화기구와 CaCO$_3$입자들 사이의 정전기적 반발력에 의한 것으로 판단된다. PMAA와 PAA 첨가량 변화에 따른 pH 6, 9, 11의 CaCO$_3$현탁액의 침전높이를 측정한 결과 PMAA와 PAA의 농도가 0.15 wt% 부근에서 분산안정성을 보였는데 이는 CaCO$_3$입자들 사이간의 분산제에 의한 뚜렷한 경계를 갖는 흡착층이 형성되었기 때문으로 생각되며 따라서 CaCO$_3$현탁액의 최적 분산안정성을 위해서는 적절한 pH 조절과 PMAA 및 PAA의 첨가가 필요함을 알 수 있다.

양남 지역의 제 3 기층인 하서리 응회암층의 중.상부에 부존되는 벤토나이트들은 원암의 암상과 화학조성에 의존되는 광호 양상과 광물상을 나타낸다. 벤톤나이트들은 대부분 안산암질 원암의 기원을 시사하는 희유 및 희토류 원소들의 함유 양상을 보이고, 현무암질 원암의 벤토나이트는 최상부의 일부 층준에만 그 산출이 국한된다. 이 지역의 벤토나이트는 주로 유리질 내지 라필리 응회암이 속성 변질된 것으로 이 과정에서 SiO2와 알칼리 (Na, K) 성분들이 고갈되는 화학 성분상의 유동 양상이 인지된다. 벤토나이트는 주된 광물 성분인 스멕타이트 이외에 흔히 단백석 및 석영같은 규산 광물과 휼란다이트, 모데나이트 및 클리높틸로라이트간은 불석광물들을 수반한다. 스멕타이트는 대부분 몰노릴로나이트 유형이지만 최상부 층준의 현무암질원 벤토나이트와 비교하여 논트로나이트의 광물 화학, X-선회절 양상, 층간 화학 및 염화학적 특성 등이 논의되었다. 이 지역 벤토나이트의 형성과정은 (1) 화산쇄설물의 급속한 퇴적, (2) 비이상적으로 높은 매몰 온도(<8$0^{\circ}C$) 조건, (3) 규산 광물의침전에 의한 공극수 내외 H4SiO4의 제거, (4) 원암의 낮은 Si/al 함유비와 높은 Fe 함유도 등에 의해서 조장된 것으로 해석된다.

The Electrical Charge generated by friction in flowing insulating oil can create hazadous accidents. Neutralization of static charges in the oil during transportation is an obvious method of overcoming the problem of internal electric charge. It is known that SCR(Static Charge Reducer) can neutralize much of this charge by the needle electrode and mixing it with the original charge. In our experiment, a filter to generate static charge was set just befor a measurement pipe, and streaming current from the filter to the earth $I_s$, current from the electrode to the earth $I_e$ and current from the receiving tank to the earth $I_f$ were measured in a steady state. As a result, charge density and needle electrode current increases with increasing of oil temperature. Charge elimination rate decreases with increasing of oil flow rate, and increases with increases of oil temperature. Faraday Cage current decreases with increasing of oil temperature.

최근 실내 공기질(IAQ; indoor air quality)을 악화시키는 물질 중 하나인 이산화탄소 저감 연구가 다수 진행되고 있다. 현재 이산화탄소를 저감하는 방법에는 흡착법, 흡수법, 막분리법 등이 있다. 그 중 흡수법은 액체 상태의 흡수제를 분사하는 공정 특성상 실내에 적용하기 어렵고 2차 오염물 또는 폐수가 발생할 수 있다. 또한, 막분리법은 이산화탄소 분리를 위한 응집 및 침전과 같은 전처리 과정이 필요하므로 실내 이산화탄소 저감에 적합하지 않다. 반면, 흡착법은 비교적 저렴하고 운영이 간단하여 적용 사례가 증가하였으며, 유동 인구가 많고 환기가 어려운 지하철, 버스 등의 대중교통 차량 내부 및 교실, 사무실, 공공시설에서 배출되는 실내 이산화탄소를 제어할 수 있다는 장점이 있어 가장 적합한 해결책으로 알려져 있다. 흡착 공정에 사용되는 대표적인 흡착제 종류에는 활성탄, 제올라이트, 알루미나 등이 있으며, 이 흡착제들을 개질 및 성형하여 흡착제의 성능 및 기계적 강도를 증진시키는 고도화 연구가 활발히 수행되고 있다. 이처럼 적용 대상 내 설치 및 교체가 용이하도록 하는 흡착제 제조 기술 개발이 필요한 실정이며, 흡착제를 상용화 수준까지 발전시킴으로써 강화된 실내 공기질 규제 기준에 대한 대응 및 삶의 질 향상이 기대된다.

When drilling operation is being performed, many physical and chemical changes are occurred near wellbore. To handle various changes of well condition and keep drilling process safe, additives of bulk, such as bentonite for increasing density of drilling mud, barite for increasing viscosity of drilling mud, polymer for chemical control, or surfactant, are added into drilling mud through a mud shear mixer. Because the achievement of the required material property through mud mixing system is essential to stabilize drilling system, it is of importance to analyze multi-phase flow during mud mixing process, which is directly related to increase mixing performance of the system and guarantee the safety of the whole drilling system. In this study, a series of liquid-solid flow simulation based on a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are performed with comparing to solid concentration in experiment by Gilles et al. [2004] to understand the characteristics of liquid-solid mixing in a mud shear mixer. And then, the simulation-based design of shear mixer are carried out to improve mixing performance in a mud handling system.

This work was initiated both to maximize purity of calcium fluoride sludge and to minimize water content in the settled sludge. The sludge was produced in the process of fluoride removal of semiconductor wastewater by the addition of $Ca^{2+}$ ion. Fludized bed reactor(FBR) using calcium fluoride as a seed was adapted. Optimum pH and molar ratio of $Ca^{2+}/F^-$ were determined in lab-scale study. The experimental results showed that fluoride removal was increased as pH and molar ratio of $Ca^{2+}/F^-$ increased, with the best removal of 79.8% in an optimum condition. In the optimum point of fluoride removal, very low ${PO_4}^{3-}$-P removal of 9.3% was observed. It indicates forming $CaF_2$ crystal of high purity, when side reaction of calcium with phosphate was minimized. In addition, water content of settled sludge was 19.3%, which is relatively low compared to other fluoride removal processes. Consequently, the FBR process proposed in this study was very effective in fluoride removal, producing good sludge of high purity and less water content.

This study is suggested a new dielectric tracer test method to understand geological structure of porous media and groundwater flow to use the dielectric constant which is one of electrical special quality of various geological materials. To measure their parameters, tracer material is made an ethanol mixing liquid(EML) having a same specific gravity of water. Also, soil materials are prepared a dielectric tracer test using the FDR system that could measure dielectric constant for saturated standard sand and river sand layers which have different initial porosity. To compare with their results, we discussed with the concentration variation of saline water having a saline concentration $3\%$ which is general tracer material by using the electro multi-meter system in the laboratory or field test. In two tracer experiment results, EML tracer test could confirm definitely EML concentration variation from each saturated soil layer as standard and river sands. However, tracer test of saline water $3\%$ concentration could not confirm permeating movement of water by degree of salinity change because these are settled at lower part column in a whole column area continuously. These causes are that specific gravity of saline water is heavier than water. That is, it could know that deposition of saline water is composed of lower part of soil column continuously independently of the direction of water into saturated soil material.

Concentration of heavy metals in the sediments from the sea off Jinhae and Masan have been studied. Concentration of the elements varied among the stations as the following: 0.32-0.76% Fe, 0.01-0.06% Mn, 29-120ppm Zn, 1-16ppm Co, 2-38 ppm Ni, 2.5-12.4ppm Pb and 0.2-0.7ppm Cd. General tendency of the concentraion of elements except Mn showed considerably high values at stations in the inner bay. This tendency seemed to be caused by waste water from industrial activities in the adjacent land. It can be thought that the pollution status of the studied area is still limited in the inner part of the day.

A hydrodynamic solution for the lateral spreading of a river plume which was developed by assuming a Gaussian distribution of density difference between a turbulent jet river plume and ambient salt water is verified by the field data in the Nakdong river plume. Effect of the river plume on the transport of fine-grained suspended sediment at the Nakdong Estuary is also examined. The analysis of fold data showed a reasonably good correspondence with the theoretical solution adopted in this work Therefore, the hydrodynamic solution can be used as a useful tool in dealing with the lateral spreading of a river plume. The density stratification due to the existence of a river plume seems to cause a retarded settling of the suspended sediments in the water column. and thus a farther transport of the fine sediment is expected than in the normal steady flow.
