An anaerobic photosynthetic treatment process utilizing purple non-sulfur photosynthetic bacteria (PNSB) was applied to the recovery of organic carbon from food processing wastewater. PNSB cells, by-product from the treatment, have high nutrition such as proteins and vitamins which are a good alternative for fish feed. Effects of light source on performance of anaerobic photosynthetic process were investigated in this study. Two bench-scale photo-bioreactors were lighted with infrared light emitting diodes (LEDs) and tungsten lamps covered with infrared transmitting filter, respectively, aiming to supply infrared light for photosynthetic bacteria growth. The photo-bioreactors were operated to treat noodle-processing wastewater for 323 days. Hydraulic retention time (HRT) was set as 6 days. Organic removals in the photo-bioreactor lighted with infrared LEDs (91%-95%) was found higher than those in photo-bioreactor with tungsten lamps with filter (79%-83%). Biomass production in a 150 L bench-scale photo-bioreactor was comparable to a 8 L small-scale photo-bioreactor in previous study, due to improvement of light supply efficiency. Application of infrared LEDs could achieve higher treatment performance with advantages in energy efficiency and wavelength specifity.

The fire accidents having recently occurred are getting more and more larger and causing lots of damage in terms of property loss and casualties increase, so there is in need of technical fire safety development like comprehensive prevention solution in order to effectively prevent. Especially, the needing of new paradigm for advanced fire safe technology is gathering strength in high-rise modern building construction. Therefore, we want to find out on this paper what is a correlation between heat release rate measurement and smoke release volume by three parts of oxygen consumption calorimeter in bench scale calorimeter (cone calorimeter/ISO 5660/Avg.500Kw), Medium scale calorimeter (Room corner tester, Single burning Item/ISO 9750, EN 13823/Avg.3MW), and large scale calorimeter (Industry calorimeter/Avg. 10MW). Thus, Smoke detective of new paradigm devised by making use of a correlation between heat release and smoke production is to help reduce loss property and casualties. Ultimately, based on this theory, a new concept of fire alarm and evacuation system will be developed and expected to apply to a skyscraper.

In manufacture of slurry fuel, the effects of process parameters on the carbon dispersion stability have been investigated. The particle size and contents of the carbon slurry taken from 3 (top, medium, bottom) positions in fuel reservoir were analyzed to estimate the dispersion of the carbon in Jet A-1. Through the application of various additives, it was found that NB463S84 additive showed the best dispersion and stability of carbon at accelerated gravity condition. The mixer performance was compared by the observation of height change of carbon-containing layer and measurement of particle sizes at the same conditions. Application of the mixing conditions obtained from the lab-scale to bench scale manufacture confirmed the practical feasibility of our research.

The slopes of open-pit mine are typically designed without considering the reinforcement and support method due to the economical efficiency. However, the long-term stability of final pit slope is needed in some case, therefore the appropriate measures that can improve the stability are required. In this study, the field survey and laboratory test were carried out in S limestone mine. The stability assessment of final pit slope was performed through the stereographic projection method, SMR, and numerical analysis. And countermeasures for stabilization were proposed. The results of analysis show that full scale of slope failure is not expected but the failures of bench slope scale are likely to occur. In oder to increase the stability of bench slope, we suggested the remedial methods as follows: excavating the final pit slope by pre-splitting blasting, placing the wide berm in the intermediate bench slope and installing the horizontal drainage hole in the place of local ground water runoff.

생물전기화학적 혐기성소화(Bioelectrochemical anaerobic digestion; BEAD)는 소량의 전압공급을 통해 고농도 하·폐수의 효과적인 처리 및 에너지 회수가 가능한 처리방법으로, 기존 하·폐수처리공정(활성슬러지 및 그 변법)에서 벗어나기 위한 방법 중 하나로 연구되고 있지만, 내부저항 및 전극구조에 따른 물질전달저해로 인해 소규모 연구 위주로 진행되었다. 하지만 stainless steel(SS) 등 내부저항을 완화할 수 있는 전극재료 및 전극구조 개선 연구가 진행됨에 따라 BEAD 적용규모가 증가하는 추세이며, 본 연구에서는 100 L의 용량에서 전극재질 및 구조에 따른 적용적합성을 에너지효율 비교를 통해 평가하였다. 반응조는 비교를 위한 AD, 반응조 내부에 전극을 설치한 BEAD, 반응조 외부에 전극이 포함된 반응조를 추가한 ABEAD로 구성하였으며, AD 및 BEAD는 기계적 교반, ABEAD는 기계적 교반 및 펌프를 통한 bulk 용액 순환으로 물질전달이 이뤄졌다. 또한 BEAD는 탄소계 전극, ABEAD는 SS계 전극을 사용하였으며 두 반응조 모두 0.4 V의 전압을 공급하였다. 실험조건은 유효용량 100 L, 유기물부하율 3 kg/m³/d, HRT 20 days 및 중온소화(35℃)으로 운전하였다. 실험결과 AD, BEAD 및 ABEAD의 유기물제거율은 각각 평균 68.1 %, 68.9 %, 74.9 %로 전극 및 반응조의 분리를 통해 물질전달을 개선한 ABEAD에서 증가하였다. 에너지 생성량의 경우 AD에 비해 BEAD는 평균 229 kJ/d, ABEAD는 309 kJ/d가 추가 생성되었으며 유기물제거율이 높은 ABEAD에서 더 높은 에너지생산이 이뤄졌다. 마지막으로 전압공급으로 인한 에너지소비량은 BEAD는 평균 3.4 kJ/d, ABEAD는 평균 0.9 kJ/d로 전극의 낮은 생물적합성으로 인해 전극에서의 생화학반응이 적은 ABEAD가 에너지소비량이 낮았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 SS 전극의 사용가능성 및 전극구조 개선에 따른 에너지효율성 향상을 확인할 수 있었으며, 추후 연구에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
