Wastewater was treated by two different treatment processes; activated sludge process and advanced wastewater treatment process (KNR process) using lab-scale experiment. Two treated wastewater showed good treatment efficiency of organic matter removal, up to 90% removal. Nitrogen and phosphorus were not effectively removed though activated sludge process, while KNR process showed good removal efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus; 56% nitrogen removal and 95% phosphorus removal. KNR process showed better removal efficiency of organic matter, nitrogen, and phosphorus compared to activated sludge process. Organic matter characterization was tracked though measurement of UV scan, SUVA, and XAD fractionation. Treated wastewater showed higher SUVA value than wastewater influent, indicting less aromatic characteristic of organic matter. XAD fractionation showed hydrophilic fraction decreased though wastewater treatment, suggesting microbes preferentially digest hydrophilic and aliphatic molecules rather than hydrophobic and aromatic molecules of organic matter.

Polymer stem insulator for an electric railway has been developed in 1995 in Korea. Owing to its excellent electrical and physical characteristics, KT mark was awarded for the developed polymer stem insulator. After new specification of KNR(Korea National Railway) was established, tile evaluation of long-term reliability combined with the improvement of manufacturing process was carried out. In 1998, this polymer stem insulator was installed in commercial electrical railway line. This paper presents the long-term reliability properties of the installed polymer stem insulator compared with conventional insulator. The location of tile installed polymer stem insulator in KNR is also introduced.

To solve the problem of insufficient recognition of key nodes in the existing software defect detection process, this paper proposes a key node recognition algorithm based on node expansion degree and improved K-shell position, shortened as SDD_KNR. Firstly, the calculation formula of node expansion degree is designed to improve the degree that can measure the local defect propagation capability of nodes in the software network. Secondly, the concept of improved K-shell position of node is proposed to obtain the improved K-shell position of each node. Finally, the measurement of node defect propagation capability is defined, and the key node recognition algorithm is designed to identify the key function nodes with large defect impact range in the process of software defect detection. Using real software systems such as Nano, Cflow and Tar to design three sets of experiments. The corresponding directed weighted software function invoke networks are built to simulate intentional attack and defect source infection. The proposed SDD_KNR algorithm is compared with the BC algorithm, K-shell algorithm, KNMWSG algorithm and NMNC algorithm. The changing trend of network efficiency and the strength of node propagation force are analyzed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed SDD_KNR algorithm.

This paper includes the comparative study between Cr plating and nitriding process with an aim at improving corrosion, wear and maintainability for KNR(Korean Next Generation Rifle) 5.56mm barrel. The endurance test was conducted to compare the performance of standard barrel, Cr plating barrel and nitriding barrel. Main activities are described as follows; optimal Cr plating and nitriding process set-up for KNR 5.56mm barrel; durability test of each barrel(20,000 rounds); salt water immersion test; dispersion, initial velocity, inner diameter data acquisition. According to the results of this firing test, Cr plating barrel is superior to standard barrel and nitriding barrel in view of corrosion, wear and maintainability

Two microbial communities of activated sludge in the same municipal wastewater, but treated with different systems, were studied and compared using molecular microbiological approaches. The bacterial 16S rDNA sequences from 124 clones were analyzed, however, the majority of them were not closely related to any known species, and found to belong to 8 different phylogenetic groups and 3 different unidentified groups. The relative frequencies of each group were similar between the two microbial communities. Fingerprinting using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) showed that the putative Nitrospira-related populations were more diverse and quantitatively higher in the KNR process system than in the other system using a conventional activated sludge process. The relationship between the bacterial community composition and the higher removal efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus in the KNR process is discussed.

A simple dual sludge process, called as $KNR^{(R)}$ (Kwon's Nutrient Removal) system, was developed for small sewage treatment. It is a hybrid system that consists of an UMBR (Upflow multi-layer bioreactor) as anaerobic and anoxic reactor with suspended denitrifier and a post aerobic biofilm reactor, filled with pellet-like media, with attached nitrifier. To evaluate the stability and performance of this system for small sewage treatment, the pilot-scale $KNR^{(R)}$ plant with a treatment capacity of $50m^3/d$ was practically applied to the actual sewage treatment plant, which was under retrofit construction during pilot plant operation, with a capacity of $50m^3/d$ in a small rural community. The HRTs of a UMBR and a post aerobic biofilm reactor were about 4.7 h and 7.2 h, respectively. The temperature in the reactor varied from $18.1^{\circ}C$ to $28.1^{\circ}C$. The pilot plant showed stable performance even though the pilot plant had been the severe fluctuation of influent flow rate and BOD/N ratio. During a whole period of this study, average concentrations of $COD_{cr}$, $COD_{Mn}$, $BOD_5$, TN, and TP in the final effluent obtained from this system were 11.0 mg/L, 8.8 mg/L, 4.2 mg/L, 3.5 mg/L, 9.8 mg/L, and 0.87/0.17 mg/L (with/without poly aluminium chloride(PAC)), which corresponded to a removal efficiency of 95.3%, 87.6%, 96.3%, 96.5%, 68.2%, and 55.4/90.3%, respectively. Excess sludge production rates were $0.026kg-DS/m^3$-sewage and 0.220 kg-DS/kg-BOD lower 1.9 to 3.8 times than those in activated sludge based system such as $A_2O$ and Bardenpho.

This paper describes the development of the database system for tunnel management of Korea National Railways. In order to make the system both target independent and accessible by KNR network or modem, authors developed the system as a web-based application using java language and IBM DB2 database. The system includes the searching, reporting, graphical representation and statistical functions for tunnel data, maintenance records and checking records. Later, the system will be extended to include the process for tunnel state rating and maintenace prioritiy decision-making.

The KNR wayside and onboard subsystem has completed commissioning tests applicable to the Pilot Line section by BOMBARDIER. Andreas Hardt/Assessor and Rod Muttram/VP, Quality & safety approved the Automatic Train Protection(ATP) System. However additional evidences are necessary to come to a Specific Application, which is mandatory to approve the Generic Applications included for commercial running on the overall main line railway with ATP. According to Factory Acceptance Test plan, CBC, CBF, LEU(Line Electronic Unit) made by domestic factory is tested by official recognition test Standards-Setting Agency. It is important to verify quality which form checklist during Factory Acceptance Test. In this paper, review the process, test item, norm and checklist for the CBC, CBF, LEU.
