The inhibition of pitting corrosion failure of copper sprinkler tubes in wet sprinkler systems was studied. First, an apparatus and technology for removing air in the sprinkler tubes by vacuum pumping and then filling the tubes with water were developed. Using this apparatus and technology, three methods for inhibiting the pitting corrosion of the copper sprinkler tubes installed in several apartment complexes were tested. The first one was filling the sprinkler tubes with water bubbled by high-pressure nitrogen gas to reduce the dissolved oxygen concentration to lower than 2 ppm. In the second method, the dissolved oxygen concentration of water was further reduced to lower than 0.01 ppm by sodium sulfite. In the third method, the sprinkler tubes were filled with benzotriazole (BTAH) dissolved in water. The third method was the most effective, reducing the failure frequency of the sprinkler tubes due to pitting corrosion by more than 80%. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses confirmed that a Cu-BTA layer was well coated on the inside surface of the corrosion pit, protecting it from corrosion. A potentiodynamic polarization test showed that BTAH should be very effective in reducing the corrosion rate of copper in the acidic environment of the corrosion pit.

The electrical and chemical characteristics in transformer insulations are changed due to thermal stress. In the chemical property, as the Kraft paper ages, the cellulose polymer chains breakdown into shorter lengths with a corresponding decrease in both tensile strength and degree of polymerization(DP). Furthermore, cellulous chains breakdown is accompanied by an increase in the content of various furanic compounds within the dielectric liquid. It is known that furanic components in transformer oil come only from the decomposition of insulating paper rather than from the oil itself. Therefore the analysis of furan products provides a complementary technique to dissolved gas analysis for monitoring transformers when we evaluate the aging of insulating paper by the total concentration of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide dissolved in oil only. In this paper the accelerated aging process of oil--paper samples have been investigated at a temperature up to $140^{\circ}C$ for 500 hours. The oil-paper insulation samples have been measured at intervals of 100 hours. For analysis we used high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) in accordance with IEC 61198 method.

In the present work, a new hydrogen added argon heat treatment process that prevents the formation of hydrides and eliminates the dehydrogenation step, is developed. Dissolved hydrogen has a good effect on sintering properties such as oxidation resistance and density of greens. This process can also reduce costs and processing time. In the experiment, commercially available Ti-6Al-4V powders are used. The powders are annealed using tube furnace in an argon atmosphere at $700^{\circ}C$ and $900^{\circ}C$ for 120 min. Hydrogen was injected temporarily during argon annealing to dissolve hydrogen, and a dehydrogenation process was performed simultaneously under an argon-only atmosphere. Without hydride formation, hydrogen was dissolved in the Ti-6Al-4V powder by X-ray diffraction and gas analysis. Hydrogen is first solubilized on the beta phase and expanded the beta phases' cell volume. TGA analysis was carried out to evaluate the oxidation resistance, and it is confirmed that hydrogen-dissolved Ti-6Al-4V powders improves oxidation resistance more than raw materials.

The regulations of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) have been steadily strengthened in ship emissions. Accordingly, there is a growing need for development of related technologies for the removal of contaminants that may occur during the treatment of SOx and NOx using a wet scrubber. However, this system also leads to wastewater production when the exhaust gas is scrubbed. In this research, we evaluated the performance of an ion selective resin process in accordance with scrubber wastewater discharge regulations, specifically nitrate discharge, by the IMO. Accelerated real and synthetic wastewater of wet scrubbers, contained high amounts of TDS with high nitrate, is used as feed water in lab scale systems. Furthermore, a pilot scale dissolved air flotation (DAF) using microbubble generator with ion exchange resin process was combined and developed in order to apply for the treatment of wet scrubber wastewater. The results of the present study revealed that operating conditions, such as resin property, bed volume (BV), and inlet wastewater flow rate, significantly affect the removal performance. Finally, through a pilot test, DAF with ion exchange resin process showed a noticeable improvement of the nitrate removal rate compared to the single DAF process.

압축성이 큰 케이크에 의한 여과에서는 압력의 증가가 여과속도를 거의 향상시키지 못한다. 이 경우 높은 압력은 여과매체 옆의 케이크 공간률을 급격히 감소시켜 dense skin(치밀층, 緻密層)을 형성하여 이 층이 물의 통과속도를 매우 느리게 하기 때문이다. 실제로 압축성이 큰 케이크의 여과에서 여과속도를 향상시키기 위한 특별한 방법이 없었다. 본 연구에서는 여과 대상액을 여과조작 전에 $CO_2$ 가스로 포화시켜 용액에 녹아 있던 $CO_2$ 가스가 압력이 급격히 변하는 치밀층에서 기체 상태로 변화하여 치밀층 내에 작은 공간을 확보하고, 그 공간이 물길을 형성하여 여과속도를 향상시 킬 수 있는 가능성에 대해 연구하였다.

The charcoal is known to have gas adsorption capability and is used frequently to mitigate the unpleasant smells from food and clothing. It is also used to treat water to remove dissolved organic and inorganic substances. In this paper, we applied the several different kinds of charcoals to the papers in three different ways to investigate if charcoal application method affects its gas adsorption capability. Wet end addition, making multiply, and coating method were tested. Specific ethylene gas adsorption capabilities were measured. Experimental results shows that manufacturing conditions of the charcoal itself changed its gas adsorption properties. The boxes used for agricultural produces, and the packaging paper for flowers are to be well fitted application for the charcoal added paper. Mulch paper, which needs opacity and air permeability with proper strength properties, is another candidate for the application of charcoal added paper.

In oil-filled equipment such as transformers, partial discharge or local overheating will precede a final shutdown. Accompanied with such problems is a decomposition of insulating material into gases, which are dissolved into the transformer oil. The gases dissolved in oil can be separated with some membranes based on the differences in permeability of membranes to different gases. This paper discuss the permeability characteristics of several membranes for separation hydrogen gas in oil. With result of this paper, it may become possible to detect fault-related gases from transformer oil and predict incipient failures in the future.

Dissolved gases analysis (DGA) is one of the most useful techniques to detect incipient faults in power transformers. Criteria interpreting DGA result is the most important. Because of difference of operation environment, construction type, oil volume, and etc, the interpretative criteria of DGA at KEPCO must be different with other standard like IEC-60599, Rogers and Doernenburg. In this paper, we collected the DGA data of the normal condition transformers and the incipient fault transformer to suggest the most appropriate criteria. Using these data, this paper suggests appropriate condition classification algorithm. Suggested algorithm can help to detect incipient fault earlier without unnecessary sampling.

The microwave of 2450 MHz, generated by a household cooking oven, was evaluated for its applicability to melt various rehydrated media and to remove dissolved oxygen from tubed media for anaerobic culture. The effect on the sterilization of E. coli in selective media was also evaluated. The following results were obtained. 10 The microwave oven was useful in saving time for melting media and in eliminating heat and combustion gas from the laboratory, which were inevitable by-products in the conventional flame method. 2) Dissolved oxygen could be removed without boiling over by exposing the tubes of anaerobic culture medium after putting them in a wire basket in a beaker with water. 30 The count of E. coli during the melting of MacConkey and EMB agar were similar to those treated with open flame. The microwave treatment was not considered a possible mean to replace autoclaving even in these selective media.

Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is widely used to detect incipient faults in oil-filled electrical equipment. KEPCO make a rule of DGA in 1985. They have been diagnosing power transformer using their DGA criteria. In this paper, we analysis the result of DGA data about transformer in the substation. We try to find out what is cause of an error in DGA diagnosis considering accuracy in extracting gases from mineral oil in transformer. The carbon-monoxide was primary reason of warning in DGA data. We specially consider that aging is a cause of generating of carbon-monoxide in power transformer.
