국제해사기구에서는 선박 배기가스 내 질소산화물($NO_x$) 배출에 대한 강화된 Tier III 규제가 2016년부터 적용됨에 따라 이를 대응하기 위한 노력이 필요하다. $NO_x$ 저감 방법으로 선택적 촉매 환원법(Selective catalytic reduction, SCR)을 주로 사용하고 있으며, 세라믹 허니컴 촉매를 주로 사용하고 있다. 그러나 기존의 세라믹 허니컴 촉매는 약한 강도로 인하여 운전상 문제가 발생하거나 유지 및 보수에 있어서도 어려움을 갖는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 세라믹 허니컴 촉매의 단점들을 보완하기 위하여 높은 열적 안정성과 기계적 강도를 가짐과 동시에 배기가스의 다방향성 이동을 통한 낮은 배압효과 등의 장점을 가지는 금속 지지체를 적용하였다. 이러한 금속 지지체 상에 촉매를 담지하기 위하여 유 무기바인더 첨가를 통해 코팅슬러리를 제조하고, 이를 코팅, 건조 및 소성과정을 통해 금속 지지체 상에 견고하게 부착된 금속 지지체 기반 촉매를 제조하였다. 이러한 금속 지지체 기반 촉매는 $NO_x$ 성능평가와 초음파 및 낙하시험을 통한 접착 내구성 평가를 수행하였다. 특히, 무기바인더를 첨가한 MFC01경우 95% 이상의 $NO_x$ 전환율을 보였으며, 상용 세라믹 허니컴 촉매보다도 우수한 내구성을 보였다. 이러한 특성 및 성능평가를 통하여 개발된 금속 지지체 기반 촉매는 고효율, 고내구성을 가짐을 확인하였으며, 기존 세라믹 허니컴 촉매를 대체할 수 있는 선박용 배연탈질 촉매로서의 가능성을 확인하였다.

$CeO_2$의 첨가가 $CeO_2-TiO_2$계 SCR촉매 활성에 미치는 영향을 구조적, 형상학적, 물리화학적 분석을 통해 규명하였다. 순수한 $TiO_2$ 분말과 10, 20, 30 wt%의 $CeO_2$를 첨가한 $CeO_2-TiO_2$ 분말을 졸겔법으로 합성한 결과, 분말 모두 $TiO_2$의 아나타제 (anatase)상을 나타내었고 $CeO_2$를 첨가할수록 $TiO_2$ 표면에 결정성이 낮은 $CeO_2$가 분산되어 피크강도가 낮아짐을 확인하였다. 순수한 $TiO_2$의 비표면적이 $60.6306m^2/g$인데 반해 $CeO_2-TiO_2$의 비표면적은 30 wt%의 $CeO_2$를 첨가한 경우 $116.2791m^2/g$으로 비표면적이 증가하였고 따라서 첨가된 $CeO_2$가 $TiO_2$의 응집을 억제한 것으로 예상된다. $NO_x$ 제거효율은 30 wt% $CeO_2-TiO_2$ 촉매가 $300^{\circ}C$에서 98 %로 다른 분말보다 높은 효율을 나타내는데 이는 FT-IR을 이용하여 촉매의 산점 변화를 확인한 결과 30 wt% $CeO_2-TiO_2$ 분말의 경우가 다른 분말들에 비해 산점이 상대적으로 많았기 때문이다. 따라서 졸겔법으로 합성한 SCR용 $CeO_2-TiO_2$계 촉매에서 $CeO_2$의 첨가는 $TiO_2$의 입성장을 억제하여 비표면적을 증가시키고 $Br{\Phi}nsted$ 및 Lewis 산점을 증가시킴으로써 촉매 효율을 향상시켰다고 판단된다.

A set of BFM (Brute Force Method) simulations with the CMAQ (Community Multiscale Air Quality) model were conducted in order to estimate self-contributions and conversion rates of PPM (Primary $PM_{2.5}$), $NO_x$, $SO_2$, $NH_3$, and VOC emissions to $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations over the SMA (Seoul Metropolitan Area). CAPSS (Clean Air Policy Support System) 2013 EI (emissions inventory) from the NIER (National Institute of Environmental Research) was used for the base and sensitivity simulations. SCCs (Source Classification Codes) in the EI were utilized to group the emissions into area, mobile, and point source categories. PPM and $PM_{2.5}$ precursor emissions from each source category were reduced by 50%. In turn, air quality was simulated with CMAQ during January, April, July, and October in 2014 for the BFM runs. In this study, seasonal variations of SMA $PM_{2.5}$ self-sensitivities to PPM, $SO_2$, and $NH_3$ emissions can be observed even when the seasonal emission rates are almost identical. For example, when the mobile PPM emissions from the SMA were 634 TPM (Tons Per Month) and 603 TPM in January and July, self-contributions of the emissions to monthly mean $PM_{2.5}$ were $2.7{\mu}g/m^3$ and $1.3{\mu}g/m^3$ for the months, respectively. Similarly, while $NH_3$ emissions from area sources were 4,169 TPM and 3,951 TPM in January and July, the self-contributions to monthly mean $PM_{2.5}$ for the months were $2.0{\mu}g/m^3$ and $4.4{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. Meanwhile, emission-to-$PM_{2.5}$ conversion rates of precursors vary among source categories. For instance, the annual mean conversion rates of the SMA mobile, area, and point sources were 19.3, 10.8, and $6.6{\mu}g/m^3/10^6TPY$ for $SO_2$ emissions while those rates for PPM emissions were 268.6, 207.7, and 181.5 (${\mu}g/m^3/10^6TPY$), respectively, over the region. The results demonstrate that SMA $PM_{2.5}$ responses to the same amount of reduction in precursor emissions differ for source categories and in time (e.g. seasons), which is important when the cost-benefit analysis is conducted during air quality improvement planning. On the other hand, annual mean $PM_{2.5}$ sensitivities to the SMA $NO_x$ emissions remains still negative even after a 50% reduction in emission category which implies that more aggressive $NO_x$ reductions are required for the SMA to overcome '$NO_x$ disbenefit' under the base condition.

As composite materials are used in many applications, the modern world looks forward to significant progress. An overview of the application of composite fiber materials in sports equipment is provided in this article, focusing primarily on the advantages of these materials when applied to sports equipment, as well as an Analysis of the influence of sports equipment of fiber-reinforced composite material on social sports development. The present study investigated surface morphology and physical and mechanical properties of S-glass fiber epoxy composites containing Al₂O₃ nanofillers (for example, 1 wt%, 2 wt%, 3 wt%, 4 wt%). A mechanical stirrer and ultrasonication combined the Al₂O₃ nanofiller with the matrix in varying amounts. A compression molding method was used to produce sheet composites. A first physical observation is well done, which confirms that nanoparticles are deposited on the fiber, and adhesive bonds are formed. Al₂O₃ nanofiller crystalline structure was investigated by X-ray diffraction, and its surface morphology was examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). In the experimental test, nanofiller content was added at a rate of 1, 2, and 3% by weight, which caused a gradual decrease in void fraction by 2.851, 2.533, and 1.724%, respectively, an increase from 2.7%. The atomic bonding mechanism shows molecular bonding between nanoparticles and fibers. At temperatures between 60 ℃ and 380 ℃, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) analysis shows that NPs deposition improves the thermal properties of the fibers and causes negligible weight reduction (percentage). Thermal stability of the composites was therefore presented up to 380 ℃. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) spectrum confirms that nanoparticles have been deposited successfully on the fiber.

We utilize the CAMx (Comprehensive Air Quality Model with eXtensions) system and the PSAT (Particulate Source Apportionment Technology) diagnostic tool to determine the $PM_{2.5}$ concentration and to perform its source apportionment in the southeastern region of South Korea. For a year-long simulation, eight local authorities in the region such as Pohang, Daegu, Gyeongju, Ulsan, Busan-Gimhae, Gosung-Changwon, Hadong, and all remaining areas in Gyeongsangnam-do, are selected as source areas based on the emission rates of $NO_x$, $SO_x$, VOC, and primary PM in CAPSS (Clean Air Policy Support System) 2013 emissions inventory. The CAMx-PSAT simulation shows that Pohang has the highest $PM_{2.5}$ self-contribution rate (25%), followed by Hadong (15%) and Busan-Gimhae (14%). With the exception of Pohang, which has intense fugitive dust emissions, other authorities are strongly affected by emissions from their neighboring areas. This may be measured as much as 1 to 2 times higher than that of the self-contribution rate. Based on these estimations, we conclude that the efficiency of emission reduction measures to mitigate $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations in the southeastern region of South Korea can be maximized when the efforts of local or regional emission controls are combined with those from neighboring regions. A comprehensive control policy planning based on the collaboration between neighboring jurisdictional boundaries is required.

The surfaces of $TiO_2$ and ZnO nanoparticles have been modified by gold (Au) nanoparticles by a reduction method in solution. Their interfacial electronic structures and optical absorptions have been studied by depth-profiling X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, respectively. Upon Au-modification, UV-vis absorption spectra reveal a broad surface plasmon peak at around 500 nm. For the as-prepared Au-modified $TiO_2$ and ZnO, the Au $4f_{7/2}$ XPS peaks exhibit at 83.7 and 83.9 eV, respectively. These are due to a charge transfer effect from the metal oxide support to the Au. For $TiO_2$, the larger binding energy shift from that (84.0 eV) of bulk Au could indicate that Au-modification site of $TiO_2$ is different from that of ZnO. On the basis of the XPS data with sputtering depth, we conclude that cationic (1+ and 3+) Au species, plausibly $Au(OH)_x$ (x = 1-3), commonly form mainly at the Au-$TiO_2$ and Au-ZnO interfaces. With $Ar^+$ ion sputtering, the oxidation state of Ti dramatically changes from 4+ to 3+ and 2+ while that (2+) of Zn shows no discernible change based on the binding energy position and the full-width at half maximum (FWHM).

Postoperative pain is one of the most frequently occurred pain in hospitals, but it has been underestimated because it is only a part of postoperative physiological Process and may disappear in time. It is necessary that nurses me the relaxation technique, planning and implementing by themselves independently, to reduce this postoperative pain. This study is aimed at showing the effect of relaxation technique on reduction of postoperative pain, and exploring the factors influencing postoperative. pain Fifty-seven patients with abdominal surgery who admitted in attacked D Medical Center to K University in Daegu have been studied. Of them twenty-nine were experimental group and the remaining twenty-eight were control group. This study has been conducted for collecting data through interviews and observation from August 23 to October 24, 1984. The tools of this study were two kinds: Postoperative Pain Scale is obtained from a review of references by the researcher, and relaxation technique, designed to use postoperative setting adequately, is also obtained from a review of references by the researcher. After confiriming no significant differences between the two groups, the hypotheses were statistically verified by x²-test, t-test, and pearson Correlation Coefficient. The results of this study are summerized as follows; ＊ The nam hypothesis that the experimental group who use relaxation technique will have less degree of postoperative pain than the control group who don't use relaxation technique is devided into three sub-hypotheses. 1. The first sub-hypothesis that the experimental group will have less score of postoperative pain than control group was accepted (t=7.810, p <.01). Even with controlling pain threshold, showing difference in some degree between the two groups, the experimental group has less score of postoperative pain than the control group. Therefore this confirms the acceptance of the first sub-hypothesis more strongly. 2. The second sub-hypothesis that the expermental group will have less frequency of analgesics than the control group is accepted (x²=9.85, p <.01). 3. The third sub-hypothesis that the experimental group will have less variation of pulse, respiration, and blood pressure between pre End post operative periods than the control group is rejected. So this hypothesis is reverified through comparing the variation of pulse, respiration, and blood pressure between pre and post changing Position to measure the pure effect of relaxation technique. pulse and respiration is significantly lowered in the experimental group (t=7.209, p<.01, t=3.473, p<.01), but systolic and diastolic blood pressure is not different significantly between the two groups (t= 1.309, p＞.05, t=1. 727 p>.05). Therefore the third sub-hypothesis is partially accepted. Conclusively, the researcher thinks that it is necessary that nurses should provide patients with relaxation technique to reduce postoperative pain, and to increase independence of nursing.

본 연구에서는, $150{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ 영역에서 $NO_x$를 제어하기 위한 ball mill 기법을 사용한 선택적 환원촉매(SCR)의 연구를 수행하였다. 제조된 촉매들의 구조적 특성 및 산화가 특성을 확인하기 위하여 XRD, BET, XPS 분석을 수행하였다. 다양한 ball mill 기법에 의해 제조된 촉매는 $250^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도구간에서의 활성의 차이를 보였다. 이중 가장 우수한 탈질효율을 갖는 촉매를 기준으로, ball mill 시간이 3시간일 때 가장 높은 활성을 나타내었다. XPS 분석 결과, vanadium의 비 화학양론종의 존재 및 원자 수 증가가 활성증진에 유리하게 작용한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 $O_2$ on-off 실험을 통해 격자산소량의 양과 탈질 효율과의 상관관계를 나타내었고, 이는 서로 비례관계에 있음을 확인하였다.

미세먼지 전구체인 질소산화물(NOx)에 대한 대기배출부과금 제도가 2020년부터 국내에 도입 및 시행됨에 따라 이를 저감하기 위한 경제적인 연소기술 개발은 매우 시급한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 해외 우드펠릿 대체재로서 REC(Renewable Energy Certificates) 확보가 가능한 국내 미이용 산림 바이오매스를 연료로 하여 0.1 MWth급 순환유동층 연소 설비에서 NOx 저감을 위한 air-staging 효과를 고찰하였다. 운전 변수로는 air-staging 적용 유무, 3차 공기 공급 높이(6.4 m, 8.1 m, 9.4 m) 그리고 air-staging 비율(1차 공기:2차 공기:3차 공기=91%:9%:0%, 82%:9%:9%, 73%:9%:18%) 변화이며 운전 변수에 대한 배기가스 내 NO와 CO 농도, 연소로 높이별 온도와 압력 프로파일, 포집된 비산재(fly ash) 내 미연탄소 함량과 연소효율을 분석하였다. 3차 공기를 가장 높은 9.4 m에서 공급한 air-staging 운전 시 NO 농도는 100.7 ppm으로 air-staging을 적용하지 않은 운전 조건(148.8 ppm)보다 32.3% 감소하지만 CO 농도는 오히려 52.2 ppm에서 99.8 ppm으로 91% 증가하였다. 더불어, NO 농도의 저감을 위한 환원영역과 CO 농도의 저감을 위한 산화영역 확보를 위해 3차 공기 공급 높이를 6.4 m로 유지하며 3차 공기 공급량을 늘리고 1차 공기 공급량을 낮춘 air-staging 운전 조건(73%:9%:18%)에서는 NO와 CO 농도가 각각 90.8 ppm과 66.1 ppm으로 air-staging 적용 조건 중 가장 감소되는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 최적 운전 조건에서 연소효율 역시, air-staging을 적용하지 않은 운전 조건의 연소효율(98.3%) 보다 높은 99.3%임을 확인하였다.
