In the present work, it was attempted to produce $H_2$ from food waste by the two-stage fermentation system. Food waste was acidified to lactate by using indigenous lactic acid bacteria under mesophilic condition, and the lactate fermentation effluent (LFE) was subsequently converted to $H_2$ by photo-fermentation. $Rhodobacter$ $sphaeroides$ KD131 was used as the photo-fermenting bacteria. The optimal conditions for lactate fermentation were found to be pH of 5.5 and substrate concentration of 30 g Carbo. COD/L, under which yielded 1.6 mol lactate/mol glucose. By filtering the LFE and adding trace metal, $H_2$ production increased by more than three times compared to using raw LFE, and finally reached the $H_2$ yield of 3.6 mol $H_2$/mol lactate. Via the developed two-stage fermentation system $H_2$ yield of 5.8 mol $H_2$/mol glucose was achieved from food waste, whose value was the highest that ever recorded.

GW170817/GRB170817A establishes a double neutron star merger as the progenitor of a short gamma-ray burst, starting 1.7 s post-coalescence. GRB170817A represents prompt or continuous emission from a newly formed hyper-massive neutron star or black hole. We report on a deep search for broadband extended gravitational-wave emission in spectrograms up to 700 Hz of LIGO O2 data covering this event produced by butterfly filtering comprising a bank of templates of 0.5 s. A detailed discussion is given of signal-to-noise ratios in image analysis of spectrograms and confidence levels of candidate features. This new pipeline is realized by heterogeneous computing with modern graphics processor units (GPUs). (Based on van Putten, M.H.PM., 2017, PTEP, 093F01.)

We present a novel video codec for supporting entertainment-quality video. It has new coding tools such as an intra prediction with offset, integer sine transform, and enhanced block-based adaptive loop filter. These tools are used adaptively in the processing of intra prediction, transform, and loop filtering. In our experiments, the proposed codec achieved an average reduction of 13.35% in BD-rate relative to H.264/AVC for 720p sequences.

There are many possibilities that may lead to low quality of drinking water Recently, some unknown deposits in tap water raised a lot of public concern regarding the safety of drinking water in Seoul. We analyzed the quality of tap water from several areas of Seoul, including the area where public complaints about tap water were high. The results shows that the quality of tap water in Seoul was good, well below the environmental standards. Only the tap water from the area with high public complaints showed turbidity higher than that of other area. Also, result shows that component of deposit in tap water was Al, Fe, Mn, and Zn. Based on the research result we propose several measures that might help to reduce the amount of deposit in tap water as follows : 1 Using coagulant aid when coagulating or adjusting pH when filtering. 2. Replacing old water pipeline with new corrosive- resistant one. 3. Increasing water treatment efficiency by enhancing water treatment system such as automation of water treatment system adjusting production capacity, and improving operational condition of filler basin. 4. Chlorine disinfection at the distribution reservoir would help maintaining the same pH level and chlorine concentration throughout the water pipeline and reduce corrosion of pipe.

A determination method of trace Ni(II) and Zn(II) in aqueous solution was studied and developed by adsorbing on titanium dioxide. For this purpose, several conditions were optimized such as the pH of sample solution, adsorption time, the types and concentration acid, and desorption time. The titanium dioxide was added in sample solution which was pH adjusted. Then, the sample solution was stirred for 5 minutes. This mixture was stored in room temperature for 30 minutes to allow adsorption. After filtering and washing the titanium dioxide, the analytes were dissolved from the titanium dioxide on membrane filter by an ultrasonic vibration for 10 minutes in 1.0 M $HNO_3$ solution. Then, this sample solution was analysed using ICP-AES. The adsorption equilibrium was achieved in 30 minutes. The desorption was the most of effective with 1.0 M(mol/l) nitric acid solution, and desorption time was 10 minutes. This procedure was applied for the analysis of two real samples, i.e., brown seaweed and tangle. The recoveries of Ni(II) and Zn(II) in spiked samples were 89.4${\sim}$98.9% for analytes.

본 연구는 부영양 저수지에서 대발생하는 유해조류의 생물학적 제어를 위한 연구의 일환으로, 여과 섭식성 이매패 말조개(Unio crouglasiae)를 대상으로 수심 및 용존산소에 따른 여과율, 생존율 및 배설물 생산량을 조사하였다. 현장에서 말조개의 생존률은 20cm수심에서 가장 낮게 나타났고, 50cm와 80cm 수심에서 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 말조개 생존율은 수온, pH, DO 농도와 높은 상관성을 나타냈고, 엽록소-${alpha}$ 농도, 부유물질 (SS)과 암모니아 농도와는 유의한 상관성을 나타내지 않았다. 수심실험에서 대조군의 엽록소-${alpha}$ 농도는 25%정도 감소한 반면, 수심 50, 80cm 처리군에서는 95% 정도까지 감소하였다. 말조개 여과율은 실험 18 hr까지 $0.15{\sim}0.20L\;gAFDW^{-1}hr^{-1}$ 범위를 보였으나, 이후 20 cm 처리군은 0.11 L $gAFDW^{-1}hr^{-1}$까지 감소한 반면, 50, 80cm 처리군에서는 각각 0.26, 0.30L $gAFDW^{-1}hr^{-1}$로 증가하였다. DO실험에서는 대조군의 엽록소-${alpha}$ 농도는 지속적으로 증가한 반면, 말조개를 투입한 모든 처리군에서는 감소하였다. 말조개 여과율은 8hr후 $0.5mgO_2\;L^{-1}$농도에서 0.46L $gAFDW^{-1}hr^{-1}$로 가장 높게 나타났으나 이후 DO농도에 따라 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 말조개에 의한 배설물 생산은 실험 초기 DO농도가 낮을수록 높게 나타났지만, 시간이 지남에 따라 감소하여 실험 시작 24시간 후체는 3.0mg $gAFDW^{-1}hr^{-1}$ 정도로 비슷한 수준에 도달하였다. 이상의 결과를 종합할 때, 유해조류 제어를 위해 수층에서 말조개를 이용할 경우 용존산소에는 크게 영향을 받지 않으므로 표층보다는 좀 더 아래쪽(50, 80cm)에 설치하는 것이 효과적 일 것으로 사료된다.

우라늄 오염토양을 동전기제염 시 많은 양의 동전기 침출액이 발생한다. 발생된 우라늄 침출액을 재이용하기 위한 처리기술이 개발되었다. 동전기제염 시 발생된 우라늄침출액 내의 우라늄농도는 180 ppm이었고, Mg(II), K(I), Fe(II), Al(III) 농도는 20 ppm~1,210 ppm이었다. 우라늄침출액의 최적 처리공정은 혼합, 응집, 침전, 농축, 그리고 여과로 구성된다. 침전액의 pH를 11로 맞추기 위해, calcium hydroxide는 3.0g/100ml 그리고 sodium hydroxide는 2.7g/100ml이 필요했다. 여러 침전실험 결과 NaOH+0.2g alum+0.15g magnetite가 여과를 위한 최적 침전혼합제로 선정되었다. NaOH+0.2g alum+0.15g magnetite 투입 시 침전입자의 평균크기는 $600\;{\mu}m$이었다. pH=9에서 침전 후 상등액에 총 금속농도가 가장 낮았기 때문에, 최적 침전을 위하여 먼저 0.2g/100ml alum와 0.15g/100ml magnetite 투입한 후 pH=9일 때까지 sodium hydroxide을 투입하여야 한다.

The purpose of this study is to get optimum operating factors of Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactor by introducing methods that make it to reduce inhibition possible in each process wastewater treatment. The used substrates, concentrated corn starch liquid (CSL) wastewater, modified starch, filtering and decoloring wastewater, ion refining wastewater, and mixed wastewater including modified starch and not including modified starch, are generated from molasses process. The seeding sludge is the digested sludge that had been applied to molasses wastewater. Batch test to reduce the inhibition factors that might be existed in each wastewater was examined. Based on the this test, the optimum operating factors according to alkalinity and pH variation was studied through the continuous test using three 5.5 L UASB reactor. The first reactor added $NaHCO_3$ to control alkalinity. The hydraulic retention time (HRT) reduced to 8 hours and the organic loading rate increased gradually. The second reactor changed the pH of influent from 7.0 to 6.0 using NaOH. The third reactor was operated without changes to compare the above two reactors. As the result, the inhibition in concentrated CSL wastewater was removed by adding iron (II). When trace metals were added to mixed wastewater not including modified starch, the digestability by gas production rate increased to more fifty percentage than mixed wastewater that was not adding the trace metals. The reason that the inhibition did not decreased in spite of adding trace metals and nutrients was influenced by high concentration generated during the acid fermentation. The UASB reactors using the mixed wastewater with the most effective performance were operated as 500 mg/L as $CaCO_3$ alkalinity and 6.0 pH at steady state, and at this time, the gas production rates were 283 and 311mL gas/g $COD_{added}$. The COD removal rates were 84.7 and 86.3%, respectively.
