A numerical study on combustion in a fluidized bed is based on three dimensional mixing and dispersion phenomena in the bed owing to the bubble growth in the vertical direction. As fluidizing velocities increase, bubble diameters increase, which activates the fuel dispersion in the bed. The combustion rates, however, reduce due to the decrease of gas exchange rates between bubble and emulsion phases. Fuel distributions in the bed are dependent on fluidizing velocities, equivalence ratios, fuel particle diameters, fuel feeding points, and the number of fuel feeders.

A laboratory scale fluidized bed reactor was developed to treat the combustion characteristics of some fuels (wood, paper sludge, refuse derived fuel). The aims were to introduce the means of experiment and interpretation of the results and finally determine the particle characteristics on the pyrolysis and combustion process of the fuel. A single particle combustion process in the fluidized bed was closely observed. Understanding experimental facility characteristics and determining parameters were also carried out. The fuel combustion processes were observed by carbon conversion rate, recovery and mean carbon conversion time. They were estimated with the CO, $CO_2$ gas concentration monitored at the exit of the combustor. Fuel drying and pyrolysis process were governed by temperature distribution in the fuel particle. There was a significant overlap of the drying and devolatilization. However, transition process from devolatilization to char combustion seemed to be determined by mechanical solidity of the fuel particle after devolatilization process.

Fuel characteristics of sewage sludge as required for the fluidized bed incinerators have been evaluated. Sewage sludge is basically a solid fuel with high percentage of moisture. Moisture content of the fuel directly affects the heating value of the fuel and the exhaust gas composition. When the sludge of transported into the incinerator, sludge cake is subject to the mixing, break-up and heat-up. Fluidization process would enhance these physical processes. The sludge fuel could then undergo the moisture evaporation and devolatilization process. Subsequent oxidation of volatiles as well as the remaining char would then follow. Sludge samples are characterized with high percentage of volatiles out of total combustibles. Quantitative understanding of above listed subprocesses would certainly help in the utilization of fluidized bed incinerators. A limited set of fuel characterization tests including calorimetric analysis, proximate analysis, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis were conducted for the selected sludge samples. The measurement reasults of sludge samples were reported along with some published data. Limited experience in the actual incinerator plant is also presented.

An effective scale-up methodology of fluidized bed incinerators for low calorific value industrial wastes such as paper sludge and sewage sludge has been developed based on the similarity rules. Conventional scale-up theories are briefly reviewed and a new simple theory defining the diffusion Fourier number is established taking account of the lateral mixing of fuels in the fluidized bed. From the design and the operating conditions of the pilot FBC plant at Inchon, important design data for the full-scale incinerators are calculated and discussed.

In this paper, I-PDA controller based on Coefficient Diagram Method incorporating feedforward controller is applied by robotic manipulators. Robotic manipulator models contain uncertain elements, which are not known exactly. Therefore, the dynamics of robotic manipulators are generally classified as uncertain dynamic system. The controller considered for the robotic manipulators need to move payloads of different masses from one point to another with good balance of the stability and response, consequently we propose I-PDA controller based on Coefficient Diagram Method incorporating FFC. The effectiveness of the controller for different system type of robotic manipulators is demonstrated by the simulation results.

Recently, composite materials are widely used for nozzle, pressure vessel, skins of satellite and many structures under condition of high temperature due to good thermal characteristics such as low CTE, heat-resistance, etc. Fiber optic sensors, especially FBG(fiber Bragg grating) sensors, can be a good counterproposal of strain gages for the measurement of material properties of composites under high temperature. In this research, T700/Epoxy specimens with embedded FBG sensors were fabricated and tested at the Instron with thermal chamber from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$. The effects of embedding optical fiber on material properties were also verified. And, the experimental results were discussed and analyzed by microphotographs of the composite specimen.

국내 쓰레기의 일인당 배출량은 외국보다 많은 2 kg/인. 일 정도이나, 주로 연탄재로 인한 것 이며, 발열량은 500 600 kcl/kg 으로 매우 낮아 보조연료가 필요한 수준이다. 따라서 소각로를 건설할 경우 이에 대한 발열량 증가를 위한 행정적인 조치 및 주민계몽의 노력을 기울여야 할 것이다. 국내의 쓰레기 처리방법은 거의 완전히 매립에 의존하고 있으나 외국의 경우는 소각, 매립 자원재활용, 퇴비화 등의 순으로 처리되고 있으므로 우리 나라도 이와 같은 추세를 따라야 할 것이며, 특히 자원재활용을 위한 "오레곤 병법"등과 같은 행정적인 조치는 우리 나라도 조속히 도입하여야 할 것이다. 소각로의 기술은 주로 유럽기술에 의해 지배되고 있으며, 최근 미국의 RDF 및 일본지역의 FBC 개발연구 등도 괄목할 만하다. 그러나 기본적으로, 유럽기술이라 할 지라도 국내 적용을 위해서는 기본적인 국내의 쓰레기 특성에 맞게 사양을 변경하여야 할 것이 므로 국내 실정에 맞는 소각로설계 연구를 추진해야 할 것이다. 특히 우리 나라는 외국보다 저발열량, 고수분 함량의 쓰레기이므로 이를 단순히 보조연료로만 처리하는 것보다 기술적으로 합리적인 보조연료 절감 방안을 강구하여야 할 것이다.하여야 할 것이다.

The characteristics of combustion and of emissions in pressurized fluidized bed combustor are investigated. The pressure of the combustor is fixed at 6 atm, and the combustion temperatures are set to 850, 900, and $950^{\circ}C$. The gas velocities are 0.9, 1.1, and 1.3 m/s. The excess air ratio is varied from 5 to 35%. The coal used in the experiment is Shenhwa coal in China. All experiments are executed at 2m bed height. Consequently, NOx & $N_2O$ concentration in the flue gas is increased with incresing excess air ratio but $SO_2$ concentration is decreased with incresing excess air ratio. CO concentration is maintained below 100ppm at over 15% of excess air ratio.

This study is aimed to characterize the combustion behavior of solid fuel in the various types of the combustors: stoker, rotary kiln and fluidized bed type combustors. Three different types of reduced-scale combustors are introduced, and temperatures and flue gas compositions are measured for various fuel sizes, water contents, initial temperature, and air flow rates. In case of the rotary kiln combustor, effects of rotating speed of the combustor are also investigated. Mean carbon conversion time (MCCT) and flame propagation rate (FPR) are used for the quantitative analysis. It is revealed that the reaction rates of the fuel are significantly influenced by the fuel characteristics, type of the combustors and air flow rate. Major design parameters for each type of the combustors are summarized through the reduced-scaled model analysis.

To utilize shellfish by-products effectively, chitin, chitosan, and microcrystalline chitin were prepared from 6 kinds of crustacean shells(Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba; Red snow crab, Chinonecetes japonicus: Daelongsuyum shrimp, Solenocera prominentis: Lobster, Linuparus trigonus: Gasibal shrimp, Nephrops thomsoni: Blue crab, Portunus trituberculatus) and their functional properties were studied. Apparent volume(AV), settling volume(SV), water binding capacity(WBC), and fat binding capacity(FBC) of various chitins, chitosans, and microcrystalline chitins ranged from $3.1\pm0.1ml/g\;to\;27.0\pm0.2ml/g$ from $5.1\pm0.1ml/g\;to\;45.0\pm0.2ml/g,\;from\;318\pm40g/100g\;to\;2,382\pm12g/100g,\;and\;from\;235\pm20g/100g\;to\;2,169\pm20g/100g$, respectively, and the krill chitin and chitosan had the highest AV, SV, WBC, and FBC of them. Chitins and chitosans did not produce emulsion but microcrystalline chitins showed emulsifying properties. Emulsifying capacity and stability of various microcrystalline chitins ranged from $18.2\pm4.0\%\;to\;50.1\pm2.5\%\;and\;from\;15.2\pm3.5\%\;to\;31.1\pm1.0\%$, respectively. Dye binding capacity of microcrystalline chitins was higher than that of chitins or chitosans.
