This study is to find the utilization of intermittent aeration system, around S-COD, T-COD, SS, timewise changes of treatment performance, sludge conversion yield, changes of temperature and pH, etc. In consequence of this study, factors of temperature correction showed 1.052 on continuous aeration, and 1.056 on intermittent aeration which is more sensitive to temperature through a minute degree. Meanwhile, sludge conversion yield on intermittent aeration showed lower and more economical than that on continuous aeration. In case of changing pH, treatment water of both reactors worsened slightly in acid but improved in alkali. In general. considering the quality of effluent water, variation pH of effluent water, etc. the case of intermittent aeration was more favorable than that of continuous aeration.

「물환경보전법」은 2007년의 「수질 및 수생태계 보전에 관한 법률」에서 개정된 법률로 그 목적이 수질과 수생태계로 국한되어 왔다. 하지만 통합물관리 도입으로 인하여 제정된 「물관리기본법」에서는 "국가와 지방자치단체가 물과 관련된 정책을 수립, 시행할 때에는 물순환 과정의 전주기를 고려하여야 한다"고 명시되어 있으며 「물환경보전법」의 물순환관리지표는 수량이 제외되어 물순환 왜곡으로 인한 문제점이 충분히 포함되지 않은 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국민들의 안전을 도모하기 위하여 물순환관리지표에 도시유역의 물순환 왜곡으로 인한 수재해 현황을 추가적으로 고려하고자 한다. 수재해 현황은 행정안전부의 자연재해로 인한 최근 10년간 인명피해와 피해액 조사를 바탕으로 가장 심각한 피해를 불러일으킨 폭염과 태풍 및 호우를 고려대상으로 선정하였다. 그 중 도시유역에서의 폭염피해란 불투수면적률이 증가함에 따라 증발산량이 감소하며 발생하는 도심의 열섬현상과 깊은 관계가 있고, 태풍 및 호우피해는 첨두유량의 증가와 도시배수의 연결성에 의하여 발생하는 침수와 깊은 관계가 있기에 이를 본 연구에서의 수량의 대표인자로 결정하였다. 수계 단위의 물순환관리지표와 행정구역 단위의 수재해 현황을 공간적으로 비교하기 위해 면적가중평균법을 이용하여 물순환율과 불투수면적률을 행정구역별로 재척도화를 하였다. 그리고 고려할 요소를 판단하기 위해 행정구역 별 물순환관리지표와 열섬현상, 도시침수를 측정하는 지표의 순위를 매겨 등위상관계수를 계산하였다. 도시침수와 열섬현상을 대표하는 지표 중 물순환율과 상관계수가 낮은 지표부터 물순환관리지표에 포함시켜야 할 요소라고 판단하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 보다 개선된 물순환관리지표를 제안하였다. 기후변화에 따라 현재 수재해 위험성이 더욱 커지고 그의 패턴도 달라지고 있기에 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 물순환관리지표가 좀 더 국민들에게 실효성이 있는 평가지표로 개선되기를 기대한다.

According to the previous study, after 2000s, factors of the Chinese government's trade policy changes would be a significant burden on the company. However, many previous studies were limited to the response strategy by judicial analysis. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the factors that affect the export performance of Korean manufacturing companies in China. Also, by using that result, I would like to provide advises for entered the korean companies in Chinese market As the results, I knew that export performance are most heavily influenced by labor policy factor and the fallowing is exchange rate policy factor. Eventually, Most of our country companies entering in china were affected changes in the exchange rate policy factor, but many company were manufacturing-type businesses to economize labor costs. Therefore, corporate and governmental response strategies are needed for that's companies.

This paper has studied the monetary policy in Korea with a time varying VAR model using four key macroeconomic variables. First, inclusion of the exchange rate was a crucial factor in evaluating Korean monetary policy since the monetary policy demonstrated sensitivity to exchange rate movements during the crisis periods of both the Asian financial crisis of 1997 and the global financial crisis of 2008. Second, a specification of the stochastic volatilities in TVP-VAR model is important in explaining excessive movements of all variables in the sample. The overall moderation of variables in 2000s was more or less due to a reduction of the stochastic volatilities but also somewhat due to the macroeconomic fundamental structures captured by impulse response functons. Third, the degree of the monetary policy effectiveness of inflation was mitigated in recent periods but with increased persistence. Lastly, the monetary policy stance towards inflation stabilization has advanced ever since the inflation targeting scheme was adopted. However, there still seems to be a room for improvement in this aspect since the degree of the monetary policy stance towards inflation stabilization was relatively weaker than to output stabilization.

Optimal operating conditions of on-farm red pepper dryer were searched by using the simulation-optimization algorithm combining the drying and quality deterioration models of red pepper with Box's complex method. Determination of control variables such as air temperature, air recycle ratio and air flow rate was based on a criterion of minimizing energy consumption under the constrainst conditions that satisfied the specified color retention of carotenoids. As quality constraint was stricter, energy consumption increased and total drying time decreased with lower recycle ratio and higher air flow rate Product mixing during drying was found to be able to improve the energy efficiency and product quality. Currently used air flow rate was assessed to be increased for the optimal operation. Two stage drying at the fixed optimal air flow rate was proven to be useful means for further saying of energy consumption. In the optimal bistaged drying, the second stage began at about one third of the total drying time and low air temperature in the first stage Increased to a high value and air recycle ratio increased slightly in the second stage. Optimal control variable scheme could be explained by the dryer performance and the carotenoids destruction kinetics in red pepper drying.

This study analyzes the effect of exchange rate and exchange risk on the import of Korea's fisheries. The estimation models consist of the following contents. The first model consists of one dependent variable-import quantity of fisheries$(IMQ_t^{Total})$ and three independent $variables-RP_t^{Total}$, $EX_t\;and\;EXV_t$. The second one-one dependent variable-import quantity of fisheries from China$(IMQ_t^{CN})$ and three independent $variables-RP_t^{CN},\;EX_t\;and\;EXV_t$. And the last one is made up of one dependent variable - import quantity of fisheries from $Japan(IMQ_t^{JP})$ and three independent $variables-RP_t^{CN},\;EX_t\;and\;EXV_t$. The estimation results show that all of the independent variables are statistically significant. Especially, the effect of Chinese $RP_t^{CN}$ is grater than Japanese $RP/P_t^{JP}$. However, the effect of Japanese $EX_t$ is grater than Chinese $EX_t$.

The paper is basically designed to investigate any existence of co-movement among foreign exchange market, goods market, and monetary market implemented by relative PPP and interest rate parity. And, rational expectation and GARCH-M model are employed for an empirical application. The result revealed that since the co-movement among the markets is hardly found, an efficiency of foreign exchange market is independent from any shocks from the goods market and the monetary market. Whereas, the exchange rate is strongly effected by a real interest rate parity. To this end, the real interest rate should be a key policy instrument to stabilize the foreign exchange market.

한국이 본격적으로 조선업을 개시한지 20년에 한국의 여타 어느 산업분야보다도 국제경쟁력이 있는 산업으로 변모되어 왔지만 현재의 지위를 위협하는 가장 큰 위험요소는 역환율등의 세계 경제 변화가 아니라 우리 내부의 나이입니다. 일본이 이 나이를 이기지 못하여 생산량의 감축이 불가피하듯 우리도 좋은 젊은 인력이 조선소에 들어오지 않고 타 산업으로 가버린다면 우리조 선업도 나이를 어쩌지 못하고 generation의 단절을 맞이하게 될 것입니다. 외국조선소와의 경쟁이 아니라 타산업과 경쟁하여 인력을 확보한다는 것은 한국의 산업이 계속 고도화된다고 가정할 때 쉬운일만은 아닐 것입니다. 그러기 위해서는 이 조선산업을 매력 있고 보람있는 산업으로 가 꾸어 놓는 일을 지금부터 해 나가야 할 것이며, 그래야 한국조선의 미래도 확보되는 것입니다.

In this paper, I estimate long-run elasticities of US real GDP and real exchange rate between Korean Won and US Dollar on export of Korean goods to US and analyze changes in their trend by using VECM and rolling regression with a fixed window. For the purposes I use the year data from 1990 to 2013 which are selected from UNCTAD, Korea Trade Association(KTA), and Bank of Korea(BOK). The results are that the long-run elasticities of US real GDP vary from 2.849 to 2.938 for the period from 1990 to 2013 depending on the models in VECM and all of them are significant statistically. The elasticities of real exchange rate between Korean WON and US Dollar vary from 0.962 to 0.967 for the same period depending on the models in VECM and all of them are significant statistically. In case of the results through the OLS and the rolling regression, the long-run elasticities of US. real GDP are 3.015 for Basic Model, 2.949 for the modified Model 1, and 2.125 for the modified Model 2 for the period from 1990 to 2013 depending on the models and all of them are significant statistically. The average of long-run elasticities of real US GDP before the global financial crisis of 2008 is greater than that after the global financial crisis of 2008. On the other hand, the long-run elasticities of real exchange rate between Korean WON and US $ are 0.347 for Basic Model, 0.566 for the modified Model 1, and -0.217 for the modified Model 2 for the same period and all of them are significant statistically except for the modified Model 2. The average of long-run elasticities of real exchange rate before the global financial crisis of 2008 is greater than that after the global financial crisis of 2008.

A household survey was conducted to compare the patterns of morbidity and medical care utilization between medical aid beneficiaries and medical insurance beneficiaries. The study population included 285 medical aid beneficiaries that were completely surveyed and 386 medical insurance benficiaries selected by simple random sampling from a Dong(Township) in Taegu. Well-trained surveyers mainly interviewed housewives with a structured questionnaire. The morbidity rates of acute illness during the 15-day period, were 63 per 1,000 medical aid beneficiaries and 62 per 1,000 medical insurance beneficiaries. The rates for chronic illness were 123 per 1,000 medical aid beneficiaries and 73 per 1,000 medical insurance beneficiaries. The most common type of acute illness in medical aid and medical insurance beneficiaries was respiratory disease. In medical aid beneficiaries, musculoskeletal disease was most common, but in medical insurance beneficiaries, gastrointestinal disease was most common. The mean duration of acute illness of medical aid beneficiaries was 3.8 days and that of medical insurance beneficiaries was 6.8 days. During the one year period, mean duration of medical aid beneficiaries chronic illnesses was 11.5 months which was almost twice as long compared to medical insurance beneficiaries. Pharmacy was most preferrable facility among the acute illness patient in medical aid beneficiaries, but acute cases of medical insurance beneficiaries visited the clinic most commonly. Chronic cases of both groups visited the clinic most frequently. There were some findings suggesting that much unmet need existed among the medical aid beneficiaries. In acute cases, the average number of days of medical aid users utilized medical facilities was less than medical insurance users. On the other hand, the length of medical care utilization of chronic cases was reversed. Geographical accessibility was the most important factors in utilization of medical facilities. Almost half of the study population answered the questions about source of funds on medical security correctly. Most respondents considered that the objective of medical security was afford ability. The chief complaint on hospital utilization was the complicated administrative procedures. These findings suggest that there were some problems in the medical aid system, especially in the referral system.
