Filtration by fibrous filter is one of the Principle methods used for removing pollutant particles in the liquid. Because of the increasing need to protect both human health and valuable devices from exposure to fine particles, filtration has become more important. Filters have been developed with modified surface charge characteristics to capture and adsorb particles by electrokinetic interaction between the filter surface and particles contained in water. The main purposes of this study are to develop and evaluate the performance evaluation of the apparatus for making a positively charged porous filter media and to analyze the surface characteristics of the filter media for capturing negavitely charged contaminants mainly bacteria and virus from water. The experimental apparatus consists of a mixing tank, a vacuum pumping system, a injection nozzle, a roller press and a controller. The filter media is composed of glass fiber(50-750 nm), cellulose($10-20{\mu}m$) and colloidal charge modifier. The characteristics of filter media is analyzed by SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy), AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy) and quantified by measuring the zeta potential values.

Vacuum vessel of the KSTAR(Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) tokamak is a fully welded structure with D-shaped cross-section. According to the requirements of the physics design, sixteen horizontal ports, sixteen slanted ports, sixteen baking and cooling ports, and twenty-four top and bottom vertical ports are designed for the diagnostics, plasma heating, vacuum pumping, and baking and cooling. Bellows on these ports are used for flexible components to absorb the relative displacement due to the vacuum vessel thermal expansion and the electromagnetic force between the vacuum vessel and the cryostat ports. Fatigue strength evaluation was performed to decide the dimension of the bellows. In order to assure the quality of the bellows, a prototype bellows for the neutral beam injection port has been fabricated and tested prior to main fabrication. It was conformed that the prototype bellows has sufficient fatigue strength and vacuum reliability in the expected load conditions.

지표수 수자원은 다른 형태의 수자원에 비하여 경제성은 우수하나 환경 훼손, 시공간적 변동성에 대한 취약성, 각종 수질 위협요소에 노출되는 단점 을 가지고 있다. 지표수 수자원과는 달리 Aquifer Storage Transportation and Recovery (ASTR) System을 이용한 지하저수지는 수자원의 안전한 확보, 환경문제 등의 측면에서 새로운 대안으로 제시되고 있다. '청정지하저수지연구단'에서 연구하고 있는 '대규모청정지하저수지'는 피압대수층에 담수를 주입하여 형성된 담수체를 수자원으로 이용한다. 본 연구는 피압대수층 주입정 및 양수정 운영에 따른 지반영향을 연구하였다. 과거 지반변형을 고려하지 않은 무분별한 피압대수층의 지하수 개발로 태국, 중국 등지에서 심각한 지반침하를 야기하였으며 이에 대한 대책으로 인공함양이 이루어진바 있다. 피압대수층 상부에 위치한 점토층은 지반변형에 가장 큰 영향을 미치며 점토층의 변형 혹은 파괴 시 지하수 이용 및 인간의 활동에도 영향을 끼칠 수가 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 주입 및 양수가 점토층에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 지반변형을 허용 범위 내로 국한시키기 위해서 피압대수층에 가할 수 있는 최대 수위변화량을 산정하는 데 있다. 양수로 수두가 감소하는 경우 유효응력 증가에 따른 지반침하가 우려되며, 주입으로 수두가 상승하는 경우 지반파괴가 야기될 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 국내 시설농업단지의 수리지질 특성을 고려한 개념 모델을 설정하여 수리전도도와 이격거리(주입정과 양수정 사이의 거리)에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 개념 모델에는 자연적 특성(지형과 지질, 강수량, 수리전도도 등)과 인공적 특성(주입정과 양수정의 이격거리, 주입량과 양수량 등)이 입력되었으며, 민감도 분석은 수리전도도(10^-1 cm/sec, 10^-2 cm/sec, 10^-3 cm/sec, 10^-4 cm/sec)와 이격거리(10 m, 50 m, 100 m)를 조합한 12개의 시나리오로 수행하였다. 양수정의 하류부에 설정된 관측정의 지하수위 강하량은 수리전도도가 감소하고 이격거리가 멀어질수록 증가하였다. 동일한 이격거리에서 수리전도도에 의한 지하수위 강하량의 회귀분석을 통해 인공함양 대수층의 지하수위 변동은 수리전도도에 의해 지배적인 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 인공함양 대수층의 수리전도도가 10^-2 cm/sec 이상인 조건에서는 주입정과 양수정의 이격거리에 따른 지하수위의 영향반경은 20 m 이내이었지만, 수리전도도가 10^-3 cm/sec 이하인 조건에서는 이격거리가 멀어질수록 지하수위의 영향반경이 급격하게 증가함을 확인하였다.

MCU used in applications such as wireless chargers and USB type-C require MTP memory with a small cell size and a small additional process mask. Conventional double poly EEPROM cells are small in size, but additional processing masks of about 3 to 5 sheets are required, and FN tunneling type single poly EEPROM cells have a large cell size. In this paper, a 110nm MTP cell using a vertical PIP capacitor is proposed. The erase operation of the proposed MTP cell uses FN tunneling between FG and EG, and the program operation uses CHEI injection method, which reduces the MTP cell size to 1.09㎛2 by sharing the PW of the MTP cell array. Meanwhile, MTP memory IP required for applications such as USB type-C needs to operate over a wide voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V. However, the pumping current of the VPP charge pump is the lowest when the VCC voltage is the minimum 2.5V, while the ripple voltage is large when the VCC voltage is 5.5V. Therefore, in this paper, the VPP ripple voltage is reduced to within 0.19V through SPICE simulation because the pumping current is suppressed to 474.6㎂ even when VCC is increased by controlling the number of charge pumps turned on by using the VCC detector circuit.

It is getting difficult to manage water resources in South Korea because more than half of annual precipitation is concentrated in the summer season and its intensity is getting severe due to global warming and climate change. Artificial recharge schemes can be a useful method to manage water resources in Korea adapting to climate change. Patent analysis enables us to prevent overlapping investment and to find out unoccupied technology. In this study, international patent trends and barriers of artificial recharge technology are analysed for patents of Korea, Japan, the United States and Europe. The four artificial recharge methods such as well recharge, surface infiltration, bank filtration and underground structures are classified as main class and the nine sub-technologies such as water intake, water treatment, injection wells, monitoring of groundwater flow, groundwater pumping, surface infiltration/soil aquifer treatment, radial collection well, iron/manganese treatment, and underground subsurface dam are classified as intermediate class. Water intake techniques are subdivided into five classifications. Total 1,281 of patents, searched by WIPS DB tool and selected after removing noisy patents, are analyzed quantitatively to evaluate application trends by year, applicant, country for each classified technologies and analyzed qualitatively to find out occupied and unoccupied technologies. It is expected that upcoming research and development project could be performed efficiently in that an avoidance plan for the similar patents and differentiation plan for the advancing patents are set up based on the quantitative and qualitative analysis results from this research.

Open-loop groundwater heat pump (GWHP) system generally has benefits such as a higher coefficient of performance (COP), lower initial cost, and flexible system size. The hydrogeological conditions in Korea have the potential to facilitate the use of the GWHP system because a large number of monitoring wells show stable groundwater temperatures, shallow water levels, and high well yields. However, few studies have been performed in Korea regarding the GWHP system and the most studies among them dealt with Standing Column Well (SCW). Because the properties of the aquifer have an influence on designing open-loop systems, it is necessary to perform studies on various hydrogeological settings. In this study, the hydrogeological and thermal properties were estimated through various tests in the riverside alluvial layer where a GWHP system was installed. Under different groundwater flow velocities and pumping and injection rates, a sensitivity analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of such properties on the design of open-loop systems. The results showed that hydraulic conductivity and thermal dispersivity of the aquifer are the most sensitive parameters in terms of performance and environmental aspects, and sensitivities of the properties depend on conditions.

Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) in the form of Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) systems are being applied for numerous water augmentation projects both in developed and developing countries. Given the onset of Climate Change and its influence on weather patterns and land use, it has been acknowledged the utilization of this technology will be ever increasing. This technique like all others does have its drawbacks or disadvantages, whereby to overcome these drawbacks or disadvantages it is recommended that logical planning process be followed. In this study, we developed a decision framework known as "Decision framework for the planning, designing, construction/testing and implementation of subsurface water storage system" to further standardize the planning and design process of subsurface water storage system to increase the probability of having a successful ASR/ASTR project. The formulation of this framework was based on earlier frameworks, guidelines, published papers and technical reports which were compiled into a data collection database. The database of which consider both qualitative and quantitative aspect for example recharge objectives, site location, water chemistry of the native, source and recovered water, aquifer characteristics(hydraulic conductivity, transmissivity, porosity), injection/pumping rate, ecological constraints, societal restrictions, regulatory restrictions etc. The assimilation of these factors into a singular framework will benefit the broad spectrum of stakeholder as it maps the chronological order under which ASR project should be undertaken highlighting at each stage the feasibility of the project. The final stage of which should result in fully operational ASR system. The framework was applied to two case studies and through the application of a modified ASR site selection suitability index (Brown et al., 2005) a score was derived to identify the performance of each site. A high score of which meant a maximize chance of success given the reduce presence of project constraints.
