The objective of this research is to evaluate the optimum treatment methods for disposal sludge cake at different temperatures and periods of time. The disposal dehydrated sewage cake used in this study was obtained from N wastewater treatment plant in the P City. This system consists of continuous conveyer thermal dryer and pyrolysis. The continual conveyer thermal dryer was operated to evaluate the optimum conditions with temperature settings, ranges from 130 to $180^{\circ}C$, loading rates of 650~750 kg/hr and operating times of 110~120 minutes. The continual pyrolysis was also operated to evaluate the optimum conditions with temperature settings, ranges from 650 to $750^{\circ}C$, loading rates of 100~158 kg/hr and operating times of 20~40 minutes. The sewage sludge cake has a moisture content of 78~80% (wt) which decreased up to 1~3%(wt) resulted in breaking of cell wall after operating the continuous conveyer thermal dryer and pyrolysis. Important parameters which were operating times, moisture contents, loading rates, conveyer velocities and rotary velocities effects on the thermal kinetics and dynamics were investigated to evaluate the optimum conditions for the continual thermal dryer and pyrolysis.

The moisture content of many inorganic sludges is less than 70% during dewatering. Hence, a mono or piston pump cannot feed the sludge dryer. Thus, most inorganic sludge should be moved to a landfill or recycled directly without any reduction method. This development was invented to apply cyclone dryers using air and specially designed for the continuous injection of sludge sources by negative pressure and high air velocity for low moisture inorganic matter. Therefore, wastewater sludge and raw water treatment sludge discharged from various industrial fields might be settled by this development. The cyclone dryer was commercialized useful as moisture reduction equipment. This development was applied using a sludge injection system for sludge feeding and under the cooperation of ejector design computational fluid dynamics. Furthermore, this paper presented good ejector model results, blowing an airflow of 264 m³/min at an actual performance test.

This study was conducted to develop new drying process for automatic control and marine engi-neering system. Air-water tests were carried out to investigate dryer performance. The dispersed flow in he dryer test apparatuses was also simulated by using a numerical code which solves the Dittus-Boelter equation for continuous liquid phase and the Reynolds equation of droplet motion for continuous liquid phase and the Reynolds equation of droplet motion for dispersed phase to predict droplet removal efficiency. Proper conditions for dehumidification were optimized by response ambient conditions. When the selected indexes were constrained in the range of 85-98% moisture content above $15^{\circ}$ and more than mass flow rates of moist air 750kg/h. The numerical results were compared with the experimental data pertaining to the removal effi-ciency at chamber stage and overall pressure drop along concentric tubes Good agreement was obtained as for the efficiency while relatively poor agreement was obtained for the relative humidity. The results also showed that the efficiency depended strongly on the relative humidity at the inlet condition which indicated the importance of estimating the heat exchanger length. Effects of some design parameters in both removal efficiency and breakthrough onset condition are discussed.

The-state-of-the-art of rice drying in the U.S.A. is presented. The U.S.A. is a minor producer but major exporter of rice. Head yield is its major criterion in evaluating rice quality . A decrease of 1 to 3 points in head yield can be expected to occur in a well-designed rice-drying system. Rice is dried on the farm in bins in the U.S. A., and n high-temperature continuous -flow dryers at the elevator level. Two relatively new rice-drying systems are discussed in some detail. : The top-bin/in -bin-counterflow bin-type on-farm dryer, and the concurrent-flow high-temperature elevator dryer.

The 100 l culture system was made on the basis of LED light, and Nannochloropsis oculata was cultured in f/2 medium at light intensity ($100{\mu}mol/m^2/s$), culture temperature ($20^{\circ}C{\pm}1^{\circ}C$) and LD cycle (12hr). As a result, the maximum biomass of 1.07 g/l was cultured as a result of 100 l mass culture at $100{\mu}mol/m^2/s$ and 24 mg/l nitrate concentration in LED blue (475 nm). The extraction was carried out using sonicator, homogenizer and chemical method 0.5M HCl shredding method. The contents of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid were 1.6, 0.5 and 0.3 mg/g cell. When using homogenizer, it was measured at 1.0, 0.6 and 0.2 mg/g cell. The chemical breakdown method of 0.5M HCl, chlorophyll a, b, and carotenoid contents were measured as 0.9, 0.8, 0 mg/g cell. The highest amount of biomass during the distruption time was measured at 3.6 mg/g cell at 15 min disintegration and acetone, 3.6 mg/g cell of acetone, methanol, and ethanol were measured as effective solvents. Concentration was measured by using microfilter, disk type continuous centrifuge and tubular type continuous centrifuge were 16.0, 1.1 and 0.5 g/l, respectively. Four kinds of equipment such as hot air dryer, vacuum dryer, spray dryer and freeze dryer were tested to optimize the drying process. As a result, the recovery rates of spray dryer and freeze dryer were 80% and 60%.

현재까지 인삼건조에 관한 연구는 단편적이며 또한 열풍건조의 온도 조건에 따른 물리 화학적 품질 변화 등에 국한되고 있으며 최 등(1992)이 백삼과 태극삼의 평형함수율과 열풍 건조 방정식을 체계적으로 개발한 연구가 있었으나 건조 에너지와 품질의 관점에서 새로운 건조기의 개발 등에 관한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. (중략)

Deep sea water has cold temperature, abundant nutrients and minerals, and good water quality that is pathogen-free and stable. Compared with surface water, deep sea water contains more nutrition salt, such as nitrogen and phosphor. Moreover, if has the good balance of minerals. Because of the ability of the spray drying process to produce a free-flowing power considering of spherical particles with a well-defined size distribution and the rapid drying times for heat-sensitive material, spray drying is attractive for a wide range of applications spray drying is a unique unit operation in which powders are produced from a liquid feed in a single processing step. Key component of the process are atomizer, spray chamber. Design of spray chamber should be based on the atomizer type, the production rate, and the particle size required. Because of the complex processes taking place during spray drying, traditional design method are based on pilot-plant tests and empirical scale-up rules. Modern technique such as CFD have a role to play in design and troubleshooting.

Samples of banana were dried in a two-stage heat pump dryer capable of producing stepwise control of the inlet drying air temperature while keeping absolute humidity constant. Two stepwise air temperature profiles were tested. The incremental temperature step change in temperature of the drying air about the mean air temperature of 30 $^{\circ}C$ was 5 $^{\circ}C$. The total drying time for each temperature-time profile was about 300 minutes. The drying kinetics and color change of the products dried under these stepwise variation of the inlet air temperature were measured and compared with constant air temperature drying. The stepwise air temperature variation was found to yield better quality product in terms of color of the dried product. Further, it was found that by employing a step-down temperature profile, it was possible to reduce the drying time to reach the desired moisture content.
