Computer methods with simplified mathematical models in conjunction with empirical model parameters can be efficiently practiced into an optimization of a diesel aftertreatment system. Components of prime interests are diesel particulate filter, diesel oxidation catalyst and de-$NO_x$ catalytic converter. de-$NO_x$, de-PM, and de-HC processes in each part are individually modeled, formulated and then combined into an integrated analysis procedure for a unified simulation of the diesel emission aftertreatment. The model is empirically tuned and validated with comprehensive engine and laboratory data. The effects of emission species and space velocity on the $NO_x$ and soot reductions are parametrically investigated. A lowered $NO_2/NO_x$ ratio due to PM oxidation in DPF contributes to promote the $NO_x$ reduction by SCR at intermediate gas temperatures. $NO_x$ reduction is inert to the PM oxidation at high temperatures. Rate of PM trapping strongly depends on temperature and $NO_x$ concentration.

Purpose: The choice of open versus closed reduction for mandibular subcondylar fracture is a debatable issue. To evaluate the advantage of open approach to closed method with IMF(intermaxillary fixation), we conducted a retrospective study to compare the outcomes of each method. Methods: From 2002 to 2006, 29 patients with mandibular subcondylar fractures were treated by open or closed reduction. 17 patients were treated by open reduction and 12 patients by closed reduction and IMF. Each group was assessed for duration of mandibular immobilization, incidences of buccal palsy, malocclusion, TMJ(temporomandibular joint) pain, and deviation of the mandible on mouth opening. Results: All cases showed accurate reduction in anatomical position, no significant displacement and no deviation on mouth opening during the follow-up period. IMF period is statistically shorter in open reduction (p<0.05). Differences in incidence of other complications were not significant statistically. Conclusion: As there are significant independent morbidities associated with IMF which requires postoperative rehabilitation, prolonged temporomandibular immobilization should not be overlooked. Some patients with poor compliances will not tolerate IMF in nonsurgical treatment. In the aspect of patient's convenience and early recovery by short IMF period, open reduction would be recommended as a better treatment method.

Sawtooth mixing device used in a non-premixed burner is evaluated for flame stabilization and NO$_{x}$ reduction. Three mixers with different blade angles are tested. Methane is delivered through the fuel jet and air passes through the co-flow annulus. The flame mode changes (attached flame, lifted flame and extinction) against the fuel flow speed are measured, and the stability diagram is drawn. Moreover, by traversing thermocouple and sampling probe in the flame, the distribution of temperature and NO$_{x}$ mole fraction are measured. With the change in blade angle, flame shape, flame stabilization, the distribution of temperature and NO$_{x}$ mole fraction are changed considerably.rably.

환원상태가 발달된 담수상태의 토양이나 습지생태계에서 $NO_3^-$는 환원상태의 진전을 지연시키는 완충역할을 할 수 있다. 논토양에서 $NO_3^-$가 Fe의 환원과 그에 따른 P의 가용화에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 담수 후 10 cm 깊이 토양의 산화환원전위 변화는 $NO_3^-$를 처리한 토양과 처리하지 않은 토양에서 현저하게 달리 나타났으며, $NO_3^-$의 환원이 일어나는 동안에는 산화환원전위가 330${\sim}$360 mV 범위에서 유지되었다. 그리고 이 기간 동안 Fe의 환원은 현저히 억제되었다. $NO_3^-$를 처리한 토양 용액의 $PO_4^{3-}$ 함량은 담수 이후 0.2${\sim}$0.3 mg/L 수준 또는 그 이하로 유지되었으며, 반면 $NO_3^-$를 처리하지 않은 경우에는 담수 후 9일째부터 Fe의 환원과 함께 토양 용액의 $PO_4^{3-}$ 함량이 급격히 증가하였다. 일반적인 토양에서 무기태 P의 상당부분이 Fe 산화물에 고정된 형태 및 Fe와 결합된 형태로 존재하므로 Fe의 환원에 따라서 $PO_4^{3-}$가 함께 용출되는 것이다. 이상의 결과를 보면 토양중의 $NO_3^-$가 $Fe^{2+}$와 $PO_4^{3-}$의 용출을 조절하는 요인인 것으로 확인할 수 있다. 토양 용액중의 $NO_3^-$ 농도가 1 mg/L 이상으로 유지되는 상태에서는 토양의 산화환원전위가 330 mV 이하로 낮아지지 못하며, 따라서 Fe의 환원과 그에 따른 P의 용출 또한 현저히 억제되는 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 온도가 큰 폭으로 변화하는 배기가스에 대응하기 위하여 플라즈마 촉매 공정을 이용하여 넓은 온도범위($150{\sim}500^{\circ}C$)에서 질소산화물($NO_x$)의 전환효율을 향상시키고자 하였다. 촉매 자체의 활성이 높은 고온에서는 $NO_x$저감이 효과적으로 일어나므로 고온 영역에서는 플라즈마 발생을 중지한 채 운전하고, 저온영역에서는 촉매상에 플라즈마를 발생시켜 $NO_x$ 전환효율을 증가시켰다. 촉매의 종류, 반응온도, 환원제(n-헵테인)의 농도 및 에너지 밀도의 변화가 $NO_x$ 전환효율에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 다양한 촉매를 비교분석한 결과, 고온에서 촉매에 의한 $NO_x$ 전환효율은 $Ag-Zn/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매의 경우가 90% 이상으로 가장 우수하였다. 저온 영역에서는 탄화수소 선택적 환원 공정에 의해 $NO_x$가 거의 제거되지 않았으나, 플라즈마를 촉매상에서 발생시킬 경우 약 90%의 높은 $NO_x$ 전환효율을 나타내었다. 배기가스의 온도변화에 대응하여 플라즈마를 촉매상에 생성시켜 운전할 경우 $150{\sim}500^{\circ}C$에서 $NO_x$ 전환효율을 높게 유지할 수 있다.

Flue gas recirculation (FGR) is a method used to control oxides of nitrogen ($NO_x$) in combustion system. The recirculated flue gases resulted in slow reaction and low flame temperatures, which in turn resulted in decreased thermal NO production. Recently, it has been demonstrated that introducing the recirculated flue gas in the fuel stream, that is, the fuel induced recirculation (FIR), resulted in a much greater reduction in $NO_x$ per unit mass of recirculated gas, as compared to introducing the flue gases in air. In the present study, the effect on $NO_x$ reduction in turbulent swirl flame in laboratory scale using FGR/FIR methods through the dilution using $N_2$ and $CO_2$. Results. show the $CO_2$ dilution is more effective $NO_x$ reduction methods because of large temperature drop due to the larger specific heat $CO_2$ compared to $N_2$. FIR is more effective to reduce $NO_x$ emission than FGR when the same recirculation ratio of dilution gas.

From the view of the environmental protection against the use of fossil fuels, the great of efforts have been exerted to find an effective method which is not only pollutant reduction but also high thermal efficiency. Reburning is a useful technology in reducing nitric oxide through injection of a secondary hydrocarbon fuel. In this paper, an experimental study has been conducted to evaluate the hybrid effects of reburning and selective non-catalytic reaction (SNCR) on $NO_x/CO$ reduction from oxygen-enriched LPG flame. Experiments were performed in flames stabilized by a co-flow swirl burner, which was mounted at the bottom of the furnace. Tests were conducted using LPG gas as main fuel and also as reburn fuel. The paper reported data on flue gas emissions, temperature distribution in furnace and various heat fluxes at the wall for a wide range of experimental conditions. Overall temperature in the furnace, heat fluxes to the wall and $NO_x$ generation were observed to increase by oxygen-enriched combustion, but due to its hybrid effects of reburning and SNCR, $NOx/CO$ concentration in the downstream has considerably decreased.

Although nonoperative reduction plays a major role in the management of uncomplicated intussusception in the pediatric age group, surgical treatment is still a necessary alternative when nonoperative reduction is unsuccessful. The author analyzed the clinical features of 68 patients requiring operation in order to identify factors which might influence the type of operative management. A nine-year experience at Ewha Womans University Hospital was reviewed, and the findings compared to previous reports. Barium was used for the initial reduction attempt in 33 cases, saline in 35. Manual reduction by milking at operation achieved success in 41 cases(60.3%). Fifteen cases(22.1%) required resection of bowel, and 12 patients(17.6%) were found to have spontaneous and complete reduction of the intussusception at operation. Two cases had pathologic leading points. There were no perforations due to nonoperative reduction. There were no significant differences in demographic data, clinical findings, laboratory data, and anatomic type of intussusception between barium and saline reduction groups. However, a significant number of cases with spontaneous reduction were in saline reduction group(p<0.05). There was a slight chance of spontaneous reduction in infants under 6 month of age(p<0.001). Age under 6 month. body temperature over $38^{\circ}C$, symptom over 24 hours, and ileo-colic and ileo-ileo-colic intussusception contributed significantly to the necessity for bowel resection(p<0.05-0.001). The author believes that the age, body temperature, duration of illness, and anatomic type of intussusception strongly influence operative management.

Purpose: Reduction mammaplasty is one of the most commonly performed operations in plastic surgery. Although secondary surgery is occasionally required for minor aesthetic problems or for treatment of the complications of the primary surgery, there are no clear operative guidelines of management. We report here two cases of secondary reduction mammaplasty using differrent pedicle from the initial ones. Methods: One case of secondary reduction mammaplasty were performed using medial pedicle after central (19 years) pedicle reduction mammaplasty because of subsequent breast ptosis and asymmetry. The other case were performed using medial pedicle after superior (4 years) pedicle reduction mammaplasty with contralateral immediate breast reconstruction with TRAM flap because of subsequent breast ptosis and asymmetry. Care was taken to include sufficient width of pedicle and adequate soft tissue attachment beneath the nipple - areolar complex. Results: There was no significant complication such as nipple - areolar necrosis or fat necrosis. The results were well maintained throughout the follow - up period. Conclusion: Medial pedicle reduction mammaplasty can be safely performed after central or superior pedicle reduction mammaplasty when sufficient width of pedicle and adequate soft tissue attachment beneath the nipple - areolar complex are maintained.

에탄올-물 혼합용매에서 납전극을 사용하여 니트로벤젠(${\phi}NO_2$)과 그 유도체의 전해 환원반응을 조사하였다. 산성용액에서는 퍼텐셜에 따라 ${\phi}NHOH\;및\;{\phi}NH_2$가 생성되었으며 니트로벤젠(${\phi}NO$)은 중간체가 아닌것으로 보였다. 염기성 용액에서는 ${\phi}NO$가 생성되며 더 낮은 퍼텐셜에서 환원시키면 ${\phi}N=N{\phi}$ 등 짝지어진 화합물이 생성됨을 확인하였다. 사용한 전해질 용액에서 ${\phi}NO\;와\;{\phi}NHOH$ 사이에 화학적인 짝지음 반응(coupling reaction)은 일어나지 않았다. 각각의 반응에 대해 전류-전압관계와 pH 의존도 및 반응물질에대한 반응 차수로부터 반응 메카니즘을 도출하였다. ${\phi}NO$가 생성되는 반응은 치환기가 있을 때도 같은 메카니즘을 따르는 것으로 보인다.
