Supercritical water oxidation (SCWO, P>221 bar, T>$374^{\circ}C$) is a promising method for the decomposition of refractory organic compounds. In this study, the SCWO of Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was carried out in a tubular-type continusous reactor system with an $H_2O_2$ oxidant at $387-500^{\circ}C$, 250 bar and residence time (RT) of 15.9-88.9 s. The decomposition efficiencies increased with increasing temperature and oxidant amount, while it was inversely proportional to feed flow rate. The decomposition efficiency of 99.6% was obtained at $500^{\circ}C$, 250 bar, oxidant amount of 400% and residence time of 40.1 s. The effect of temperature on the decomposition efficiency was more significant than that of oxidant amount. In the case of the decomposition efficiency of 5,000 mg/L of EDTA (3,063 mg/L as $COD_{Cr}$), the decompostion of 99% or higher was obtained at the condition of over 40.1 s (RT) and 200 stoichiometric % of $H_2O_2$ in the supercritical water of $500^{\circ}C$ and 250 bar.

This paper analyzed the impact of the penetration of EV(electric vehicle) and FCEV(fuel cell electric vehicle) into the automobile industry, using a static CGE approach. There are contrasting view on the economic impact of EV/FCEV penetration: negative economic impact due to shrunken intermediate inputs versus positive impact because of input saving technical progress. Regarding environment, there is no clear consensus whether EV or FCEV will contribute to the reduction of $CO_2$ emissions in Korea. This study attempts to provide an answer to these questions. By giving shocks to the input coefficients of automobile industries and automobile using sectors, as well as to the final demands for energies. we integrated the Bass diffusion model into the CGE framework, The result suggests that the EV penetration has adverse impact on the $CO_2$ emission while the FCEV penetration has positive impact. On the other hand, both EV and FCEV have positive impacts on GDP. When considering automobile manufacturing sectors only, adverse impacts on $CO_2$ are demonstrated both for EV and FCEV. However, since the size of $CO_2$ increase is small, these results does not alter the overall effects.

철강산업에 있어서 공해저감시설의 설치와 증 개축시 발생하는 제반 문제점과 함께 불완전한 시장과 제약된 경영여건하에서 각 기업들은 주어진 요소의 시장가격으로 생산비용 최소화의 실현과 더불어 합리적이며 효율적인 생산활동을 하고 있다고는 할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 한국 철강산업을 대상으로 일반비용 함수 방식에 의한 계수검정을 실시하여 공해저감시설 또는 자본을 포함한 각 생산요소의 상대가격 효율성 달성 여부를 알아본다. 그리고 비효율성으로 인한 생산비용의 상승효과를 측정하고 공해저감자본의 실제 투입량과 적정수준과의 차이를 측정하여 공해저감자본에 대한 적정 투입률을 분석한다. 측정 결과, 상대가격의 비효율성으로 인하여 1982년부터 1994년까지의 기간 동안 철강산업의 생산비용이 연평균 약 13.6% 증가되었으며 공해저감자본은 적정수준에 비해 연평균 48.4% 적게 투입된 것으로 나타났다.

유류유출사고와 같이 하천 수표면의 흐름에 따라 이동 확산하는 부유성 오염물질의 혼합해석을 위해 많은 연구자들은 입자추적모형을 사용한 혼합모의를 수행해왔다. 입자추적모형에서 오염물질의 혼합은 평균 유속 분포에 의한 결정론적인 이동과 난류유동에 의한 무작위적인 혼합으로 나타내며, 난류혼합에 의한 수평확산은 난류확산계수로 조절한다. 따라서 표면흐름에 의한 난류확산계수의 산정을 위해 많은 연구자들은 부유성 입자를 이용한 실내실험을 수행하여 수평확산계수를 산정했고(Engelund, 1969; Cederwall, 1971), 최근에는 GPS의 발전으로 인해 해양영역에서 GPS를 장착한 표면부자를 활용한 확산실험을 통해 수평확산계수를 산정한 바 있다(Kjellson and $D{\ddot{o}}{\ddot{o}}s$, 2012; Alpers 등, 2013). 하천수질오염사고의 약 43.5%가 유류유출에 의한 것이며(환경부, 2013), 이에 따라 표면흐름에 의한 오염물질 혼합해석이 필요하나, 하천에서 수평확산계수 산정을 위한 현장실험연구는 부족한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 낙동강 본류에서 GPS부자를 이용한 입자추적실험을 수행하여 표면흐름에 의한 확산계수를 산정했다. GPS부자를 이용한 입자추적실험은 낙동강의 강정고령보 하류와 구미보 하류의 각각 세 지점에서 수행되었다. GPS부자는 바람에 의한 교란을 최소화하기 위해 지름 10 cm의 구형으로 제작하였으며 시범테스트를 통해 입자의 주 궤적 변화가 크지 않은 지점에 GPS부자를 투입했다. GPS부자는 오염물질의 사고유출을 가정하여 한 지점에 투입했고 GPS부자 사이의 간섭을 최소화하기 위해 25 ~ 35개의 GPS부자를 이용했다. 표면흐름에 의해 이동하는 부자의 위치는 GPS에 시계열로 저장됐고 ADCP를 이용하여 실험당시의 수리량을 측정했다. 입자위치의 시계열자료로부터 GPS부자의 확산범위의 시간변화를 계산했고 단순 모멘트법을 이용하여 종, 횡 방향 확산계수를 계산했다. 그 결과, 종 방향 확산계수는 $0.003{\sim}0.041m^2/s$로 계산되었고 횡 방향 확산 계수는 $0.001{\sim}0.012m^2/s$로 계산되어, 흐름방향의 유속성분에 의한 확산이 지배적인 것으로 나타났다. 지류 합류부에서는 이송이 지배적인 혼합이 발생되었고(Pe>1) Pe의 증가에 따라 수평확산계수가 감소되었다. 25~35개 GPS부자 궤적의 앙상블 평균으로부터 계산한 Integral time scale은 모멘트법으로부터 계산한 종, 횡 방향 확산계수와 비례하는 것으로 나타나, Taylor(1921)의 이론과 일치했다. 또한 실험수로에서 수행된 기존연구결과와 비교한 결과, 하폭 대 수심비, 마찰항의 증가에 따라 수평확산계수가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Successful project planning relics on a good estimation of the manpower required to complete a project, together with the schedule options that may be available. Despite the extensive research done developing new and better models, existing software manpower estimation models are present only the total manpower or instantaneous manpower distribution according to the testing time for the software life-cycle. This paper suggests the manpower estimating models for software testing phase as well as testing process and debugging process in accordance with de-tected faults. This paper presents the polynomial model for effort based on testing and debugging faults. These models are verified by 5 different software project data sets with coefficient of determination and mean magnitude of relative error for adaptability of model.

Considering the importance of cassava as food crops in humid tropics, the effect of feed moisture (20, 25%) and barrel temperature (110, $130^{\circ}C$) on physical properties (piece density, expansion, mechanical properties, color, water solubility index, water absorption index) and pasting properties of extruded cassava starch was investigated. The feed moisture used during extrusion processing had a significant effect on extrudates SME input, specific length and piece density at (p<0.05) while effect on cross-sectional expansion index, apparent elastic modulus and breaking strength in bending shown significantly at p<0.1. Furthermore, the interaction effect of feed moisture and barrel temperature gave a significantly affected the SME input and piece density (p<0.1), specific length (p<0.05) and on redness (p<0.01). The increase in water injection rate led to increase in piece density, apparent elastic modulus, breaking strength in bending, cold peak viscosity, breakdown and final viscosity and decrease in cross-sectional expansion index and specific length. It was found that the extrusion cooking process did not affect the value of color L, color b, water solubility index and water absorption index. Thus, the results of this study can be useful to some extent in developing extruded cassava starch as human and animal feeds.

In South Korea, ongoing incidents related to drinking water quality have eroded consumer trust. Specifically, beyond quality incidents, there have been complaints about taste, odor, and other issues stemming from the presence of chlorine. To address this, water service operators are employing various management strategies from both temporal (scheduling) and spatial (rechlorination) perspectives to ensure uniform and safe distribution of chlorine residuals. In this study, we focus on the optimal monthly management of chlorine residuals, based on water distribution network analysis. Water quality reaction coefficients, including bulk fluid and wall reaction coefficients, were estimated through lab-scale tests and EPANET water quality simulations, respectively, accounting for temperature variations in a large-scale water distribution network. Utilizing these estimated coefficients, we examined the monthly variations in chlorine residual distribution under different chlorine injection conditions. The results indicate that the efficient concentration for chlorine injection, which satisfies the residual chlorine limit range, varies with temperature changes. Consequently, it is imperative to establish a specific and quantitative chlorine injection plan that considers the accurate spatial distribution of monthly chlorine residuals.

In this analysis, from the perspective of the business ecosystem, the economic effects of the oil and gas E&P industry were estimated. Australia, Norway, and the US, which are countries that are active in oil and gas E&P projects, and Japan and Korea, which are not, were analyzed. According to the analysis results, every country has a induced production coefficient of the oil and gas E&P industry greater than 1. Norway and the US have formed an industrial ecosystem across all industries, evenly demanding intermediate inputs for the primary, secondary, and tertiary industries. In contrast, Korea and Japan have a very large input ratio from the tertiary industry and an industrial ecosystem centered on the tertiary industry. It should be considered that the high input ratio of certain industry in business ecosystem determine the scale of the induced effect. When the business ecosystem are formed with many industries evenly, and the induced coefficient is high, it is necessary to increase the amount of final demand of the industry to make the effects of coefficient to increase.

From the respect of economics, environmental industry has not defined clearly since environmental services and goods are so broad to focus. Therefore many countries are using their own version of environmental industry. Hence analysis of environmental industry is very limited. In this thesis, based on the definition of Bureau Statistical Office in Korea, economic analysis for the industrial spill effect, production effect, value-added effect has been done by using 1995, 1998 I-O tables published from the Bank of Korea. Even if portion of production from environmental industry in Korea is quite low so far, forward and backward effect has quite impact on the whole industry and show strong intermediate goods. With respect to price effect.
