Bubble columns are widely encountered in several industries, especially in the field of nuclear safety. The Eulerian-Eulerian and the Eulerian-Lagrangian methods are commonly used to investigate bubble columns. Eulerian approaches require additional tasks such as strict volume conservation at the interface and a predefined well-structured grid. In contrast, the Lagrangian approach can be easily implemented. Hence, we introduce a fully Lagrangian approach for the simulation of bubble columns using the discrete bubble model (DBM) and moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) methods. Additionally, we propose a rigorous method to estimate the volume fraction accurately, and verified it through experimental data and analytical results. The MPS method was compared with the experimental data of Dambreak. The DBM was verified by analyzing the terminal velocity of a single bubble for each bubble size. It agreed with the analytical results for each of the four drag correlations. Additionally, the improved method for calculating the volume fraction showed agreement with the Ergun equation for the pressure drop in a packed bed. The implemented MPS-DBM was used to simulate the bubble column, and the results were compared with the experimental results. We demonstrated that the MPS-DBM was in quantitative agreement with the experimental data.

Phage lysogen계는 통일 반응기 내에서 단백질 고농도 생산과 세포파괴를 수행할 수 있는 장점을 가지나, 배양액내 다양한 배지생분과 세포내외 물질 이 흔재하게 되어 분리, 정제 공정에서의 효율이 감소되는 단점이 있다. 본 실험에서는 이러한 E. coli double-lysogen 계의 단점을 Expanded Bed Adsorption을 적용함으로써, 세포분리 빛 세포파괴 공정과, 잔류물질 제거를 위한 전처리 공정을 간소화 할 수 있었다. 이러한 공정의 간소화를 통해 생물 공학적 제품 생산시 생산비용의 감소와 생산효율 증 대를 이룰 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. EBA의 운전에 있어 배양용액의 주입량을 1/2로 감소시키는 경우 resin에 홉착되지 않고 손실되는 단백질과 흡착후 용리되는 단백질양이 모두 감소하 여 실험한 범위에서 주입량 감소에 의한 영향은 없 는 것으로 나타났다. Column 길이를 2배 증가시킨 경우 resin 1mL당 홉착되는 단백질 양이 $3.44{\times}106unit 에서 5.28{\times}106unit$ 으로 65% 증가하였으며, column 지름을 2배 증가시키는 경우 용리액의 농축비가 0.8에서 2.1로 증가하였다. 따라서 resin 단위 부피당 흡착량의 증 가를 위해서는 column의 길이를 증가시키는 것이 펼요하며, 높은 농도의 용리액을 얻기 위해서는 col­u umn의 지름을 증가시키는 것이 척절하다고 판단된다. EBA의 광범위한 사용을 위해서는 목적 단백질에 적합한 물성을 갖는 reSIn의 개발이 중요하며, 주어 진 상황에 따른 운전 조건의 최적화가 필요하다고 판단된다.

Rice hull was reduced to ash by carbonization grades to illcuidate alkalinity increase and extract of inorganic nutrients in the rice hull charcoal. Alkaline reaction of water extraction was neutral at less carbonized charcoal, but much carbonized ash from 65% weight loss reached over 10 of pH value, also origin shape of rice hull was maintained until near 65% carbonized grade. Therefore, physical properties sustained good condition for seedling bed. The more charcoal carbonized to ash, the pH value and concentration of inorganic nutrient in their extracts were increased gradually. Nitric acid concentrations for neutralizing extract from charcoal were stronger in proportion to the carbonized grade but 0.1 N nitric acid solution was very reasonable to neutralize the 65% carbonized charcoal for mixing with heavy texture acidy soil(pH 5.3) of uncultivated deep horizon to transplant the tobacco seedlings. Volume ratio mixing for seedling bed is adequate at five of ash to one of acid solution. Neutralization with nitric acid solution also accelerated extraction of the inorganic nutrient in rice hull ash. Tobacco seedlings grown on bed mixed with neutralized rice hull charcoal and soil had shown better results on the agronomic measurement than alkaline ash bed, and phosphorus and cations were uptaken more amounts.

In this study we followed biofilm formation and development in a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter on pilot-scale during the 12 months of operation. GAC particles and water samples were sampled from four different depths (-5, -25, -50 and -90 cm from surface of GAC bed) and attached biomass were measured with adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) analysis and heterotrophic plate count (HPC) method. The attached biomass accumulated rapidly on the GAC particles of top layer throughout all levels in the filter during the 160 days (BV 23,000) of operation and maintained a steady-state afterward. During steady-state, biomass (ATP and HPC) concentrations of top layer in the BAC filer were $2.1{\mu}g{\cdot}ATP/g{\cdot}GAC$ and $3.3{\times}10^8cells/g{\cdot}GAC$, and 85%, 83% and 99% of the influent total biodegradable dissolved organic carbon ($BDOC_{total}$), $BDOC_{slow}$ and $BDOC_{rapid}$ were removed, respectively. During steady-state process, biomass (ATP and HPC) concentrations of middle layer (-50 cm) and bottom layer (-90 cm) in the BAC filter were increased consistently. Biofilm development (growth rate) proceed highest rate in the top layer of filter (${\mu}_{ATP}=0.73day^{-1}$; ${\mu}_{HPC}=1,74day^{-1}$) and 78%~87% slower in the bottom layer (${\mu}_{ATP}=0.14day^{-1}$; ${\mu}_{HPC}=0.34day^{-1}$). This study shows that the combination of different analytical methods allows detailed quantification of the microbiological activity in drinking water biofilter.

In industrial field, a large volume of regenerants (acid and caustic soda) and their washing effluents are regularly disposed off from the water demineralization plant during regeneration of the ion-exchanger units. Of these waste effluents, a part of the wash water discharged from the single bed Anion and Mixed Bed units can be utilized at a certain stage of their washing cycles when its conductivity is fallen down and becomes considerably less than that of the input raw water. The main aim of this specific waste effluent utilization is to dilute the TDS concentration of the input raw water (fed into the single bed ion-exchanger units) by blending. The achievement is the increase of the longevity of the production cycles of the I.E. units along with the improvement of the production quality and decrease of the regeneration frequencies. As a result, regenerant consumption would be saved because of the reduction of ionic load in feed water which will ultimately reduce the water purification cost. At the same time, the environment pollution will also be protected to a considerable extent. This operational measure is quite effective and useful specially where high TDS water is demineralized only by single bed ion-exchangers. In such case, the water treatment plant is very often found to suffer from both production quality and quantity in addition to carrying out of random and restless regenerations. Proper reuses of the aforesaid wash water effluents of the Anion and MB units excellently minimizes the difficulties experienced in practice. This paper contains the utilities and techniques of reuses of the different kinds of waste effluents of the industrial water treatment plant in addition to the specific reuses of the post-regeneration wash waters of the Anion and MB ion-exchanger units.

A commercial NiO (green nickel oxide, 86 wt% Ni) powder was reduced using a batch-type fluidized-bed reactor in a temperature range of 500 to $600^{\circ}C$ and in a residence time range of 5 to 90 min. The reduction rate increased with increases in temperature; however, agglomeration and sintering (sticking) of Ni particles noticeably took place at high temperatures above $600^{\circ}C$. An increasing tendency toward sticking was also observed at long residence times. In order to reduce the oxygen content in the powder to a level below 1% without any sticking problems, which can lead to defluidization, proper temperature and residence time for a stable fluidized-bed operation should be established. In this study, these values were found to be $550^{\circ}C$ and 60 min, respectively. Another important condition is the specific gas consumption rate, i.e. the volume amount ($Nm^3$) of hydrogen gas used to reduce 1 ton of Green NiO ore. The optimum gas consumption rate was found to be $5,000Nm^3/ton$-NiO for the complete reduction. The Avrami model was applied to this study; experimental data are most closely fitted with an exponent (m) of $0.6{\pm}0.01$ and with an overall rate constant (k) in the range of 0.35~0.45, depending on the temperature.

As for military backpacks in Korea, utility backpack products equipped with various functions along with comfort and convenience are being developed. As a result, the volume and weight of the backpack increase, and many lightweight studies of the materials forming the backpack are being conducted. This study is a basic study on frame lightweight using fiber-reinforced composites to deal with aluminum, a back frame that maintains the shape of a backpack and provides stability when worn by combatants. As is known, only fiber-reinforced composites have sufficient light weight and mechanical properties, but the mechanical properties were reviewed by drilling holes to maximize the light weight. Tensile strength and flexural strength were measured by drilling 6mm, 12mm, 18mm, and 24mm holes, and the tensile strength and flexural strength were measured when 1, 3, 5, and 7 holes of 12mm were increased. As a result, even when the number of holes was increased, tensile strength did not change significantly, and the flexural strength showed to be higher in the case of 3 holes and 5 holes than in the case of 1 hole.

댐 붕괴로 인한 극한홍수가 발생하였을 경우, 홍수경보에 대한 대응시간은 일반적인 홍수의 경우보다 훨씬 짧다. 수치모형은 홍수파의 전파양상을 예측하고, 범람지역, 홍수파 도달시간 그리고 침수심 등에 관한 정보를 제공하는데 있어 강력한 도구가 될 수 있다. 그러나 댐 붕괴로 인한 홍수파의 전파는 불연속 흐름이나 마른하도의 전파를 포함하고 있으므로, 수학적으로 표현하기 어려운 경우가 많다. 그럼에도 불구하고 최근에 유한체적기법을 이용하여 댐 붕괴로 인한 홍수범람을 모의하기 위한 수치모형의 개발이 많이 이루어졌다. 유한체적기법은 적분보존형 방정식을 기본으로 하고 있으므로, 불연속 흐름이나 충격파의 해석에 용이하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 2차원 보존형 천수방정식의 해석을 위해 유한체적기법과 Riemann 근사해법을 이용한 수치모형을 개발하였다. 그리고 예측단계와 수정단계에서 연속방정식과 운동량 방정식의 보존변수 재구성을 위해 수면경사법과 연계한 MUSCL 기법을 적용하여 시간과 공간에서 2차정확도를 얻었다. 개발한 유한체적모형을 2차원 부분적 댐 붕괴 해석 및 삼각형 융기를 가진 하도에 대한 댐 붕괴 해석에 적용하고, 적용결과를 실험자료 및 기존 연구자의 계산결과와 비교하여 개발모형을 검증하였다.

Huge amount of energy produced by an underground nuclear test is released into the surrounding rock. Depending on the properties of the bed rock surrounding the detonation and overlaying it a variety of effects can occur. At some particular depth the increasing amount of material thrown upward is exactly balanced by the decreasing fraction escaping the crater, the crater volume reaches to a maximum. This depth is called the optimum depth of burial and varies somewhat with the geology of the site, being greater for less dense and structurally weaker material.
