An important goal in diesel engine research is the development of a means to reduce the emission of oxides of nitrogen ($NO_x$) and soot particulate. A phenomenological model based on the multizone concept is used in the current paper to analyze and compare the effects of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and split fuel injection on emission from a compression-ignited, direct-injection engine. The present results show that $NO_x$ can be reduced with a minimum penalty of soot particle emission with cooled EGR. Compared with EGR, split fuel injection has a higher soot penalty at a given level of $NO_x$ reduction.

Experimental and numerical investigation on NOx emission characteristics with equivalence ratios, fuel flow rates and nozzle diameters were studied in CH4 Jet flames. Emission indices of NOx were measured by chemiluminescent method with carbon converter. Numerical analyses were carried out with GRl-2.11 mechanism that includes C2-chemistry and all of NO reaction mechanisims. The roles of thermal NO and prompt NO mechanism on each flame's NOx emission index were investigated. The results of this study show that the numerical results represent well the trends of ElNOx experimentally observed. The numerical analyses clarified the trends of EINOx with equivalence ratios, fuel flow rates and nozzle diameters.

Terrestrial vegetation has been known as a main source of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs). Isoprene and monoterpene among the BVOCs are most abundant species emitted by forests, and have a significant impact on atmospheric chemistry. Abundancy of these species could lead to an increase or decrease in the production of natural tropospheric ozone in forests, depending on the nitric oxide (NO) concentration. Soil is the most significant source of natural NO. Understanding of NO emission from forest soil could be critical in evaluation of air quality in the forest area. Flux-gradient similarity theory (FGST) was applied for practical use to estimate forest soil NO emission at Mt. Taewha where is available micro-meteorological data near surface monitoring from flux tower. NO fluxes calculated by FGST were compared to flux results by flow-through dynamic chamber (FDC) measurement. Surface NO emission trends were shown between two different techniques, however their magnitudes were found to be different. NO emissions measured from FDC technique were relatively higher than those from theoretical results. Daily mean NO emissions resulted from FGST during Aug. 13, 14 and 15 were $0.28{\pm}8.45$, $2.17{\pm}15.55$, and $-3.18{\pm}13.65{\mu}gm^{-2}hr^{-1}$, respectively, while results from FDC were $2.26{\pm}1.44$, $5.11{\pm}3.85$, and $2.23{\pm}6.45{\mu}gm^{-2}hr^{-1}$. Trends of daily means were shown in similar pattern, which NO emissions were increasing during late afternoon ($r^2$=0.04). These emission trends could be because soil temperature and moisture influence importantly soil microbiology.

Urban air quality is usually worse than that of rural counterpart. The contrasting atmospheric properties seem to be direct result of different urban-rural air pollutant emission. Hence, the emission estimation of air pollutants plays an important role to the atmospheric environmental management. The main purpose of this study is to find out the temporal and spatial distribution of air pollutant emission in Daegu area. For the study, the Daegu statistical yearbook and data of waste facilities and the report on traffic survey issued by Daegu metropolitan city and the statistical yearbook on the road capacity issued by the ministry of construction and transportation are used. Each item for the emission estimation is $SO_2$, CO, HC, $NO_x$, PM-10 from point, line and area source. The result were as follow; (1) The air pollutants with the highest amount of emission from the emission source is CO followed by $NO_x$, $SO_2$, PM-10, HC in descending order of magnitude. (2) The annually totaled air pollutant emission consists of 81%(73,185 ton/year) of line, 11%(9,589% ton/year) of area and 8%(7,445 ton/year) of point source in Daegu. Air polluant emission was mainly due to line sources. (3) High-emission of the air pollutants of line source appeared ariond Bukgu, Dalseonggun, Dongu and Seogu ; the areas with highway networks.

A correlation between an air inflow velocity and $NO_x$ emission is investigated numerically. The area of a swirl premixed burner is controlled geometrically to increase or decrease an air inflow velocity. When an air velocity increases, mixedness at the burner exit is improved and NO emission at the liner exit is reduced. Although the area of an air slit is the same, NO emission shows discrepancy due to difference of air slit shapes.

The Korean government enacted the "Special Law for Improving Air Quality of Metropolitan Area" in 2003. According to this plan, Korean government plan to lower the concentrations of $PM_{10}$ and $NO_x$ to $40{\mu}g/m^3$ and 22 ppb, respectively, by 2014. In this study, we analyze emission reduction strategies to lower their concentration. Emission reduction for the supply of mass energy and regenerative energy are compared with several scenarios. According to the results, 713 t/y of $NO_x$ and 165 t/y of $PM_{10}$ will be reduced by enhancing the number of households supplied by local heating and air conditioning. And also 5 t/y of $PM_{10}$ and 312 t/y of $NO_x$ will be reduced by replacing conventional energy with solar energy by 2014.

산림청은 보조금 지원사업을 통해 2011년부터 2015년까지 76대의 산업용 목재펠릿보일러를 보급하였다. 보일러의 연소 시 발생하는 일산화탄소(CO) 및 질소산화물($NO_x$)는 각각 급성 중독 시 사망에까지 이르게 하는 물질이기 때문에 배출량을 줄이는 것이 매우 중요하다. 따라서 이들 보일러 중 열풍기와 초기에 보급된 일부 보일러를 제외한 63대의 보일러에서 배출된 CO 및 $NO_x$ 계측값을 분석하였다. 또한 측정된 배출가스 농도(배기가스 $O_2$ 농도 12% 기준)로부터 배출계수를 산출하였다. 산업용 목재펠릿보일러에서 배출된 CO의 평균값은 49 ppm이었으며, 해를 거듭함에 따라 CO의 농도가 줄어들고 있음이 확인되었다. 이때 CO의 배출계수는 0.73 g/kg였다. 산업용 목재펠릿보일러에서 배출된 $NO_x$의 평균값은 67 ppm였으며, $NO_x$의 배출계수는 1.63 g/kg이었다. CO와는 달리 설치년도에 따라 감소하는 경향은 나타나지 않았다. CO 및 $NO_x$ 계측값은 모두 환경부의 허용기준을 만족하였다. 이러한 $NO_x$ 배출계수를 저$NO_x$ 인증된 연소기에서 생성되는 $NO_x$ 배출계수와 비교하였다. 산업용 목재펠릿보일러의 $NO_x$ 배출계수는 저$NO_x$ 인증된 LNG 연소기의 $NO_x$ 배출계수에 비해 약 1.9배, 석탄 연소에 비해 약 0.92배였다.

In order to investigate the reduction of NO emissions, natural gas was fueled for two-stage combustion apparatus. NO and CO emissions were described by five variables: total air ratio, primary air ratio, secondary air injection position, secondary air injection velocity, and swirl ratio. It was mainly observed that, as the primary air ratios of 0 and 0.4 NO emission decreased with increasing the secondary air injection position and secondary air injection velocity. The effect of weak swirl on NO emission was found to be insignificant.

An experimental study was carried out in a small-scale test furnace to investigate the performance, such as $NO_X$ emission, enhancement of heat transfer, uniformity of temperature, and etc, of oscillating combustion applied in radiant tube burner system. A premixed type burner and a cyclic oscillating control valve were designed and used. The fuel, used commercial LPG in this study, was only oscillated using the cyclic oscillating control valve. As oscillating combustion was applied in radiant tube burner system, it is found that $NO_X$ emission, compared to no oscillation, could be reduced by 38% at $90{\sim}120rpm\;(1.5{\sim}2.0Hz)$. However, as oscillating frequency was increased, effect of abatement of $NO_X$ emission is gradually reduced. From the measurement of furnace heating time from $100^{\circ}C$ to $720^{\circ}C$, heat transfer is increased by 11.5% at the oscillation of 120rpm. Temperature distribution of radiant tube surface is more uniform at oscillation of 120rpm with decrease of the peak temperature and increase of low temperature. From these results, it is confirmed that oscillating combustion is useful in radiant tube burner system.

The effects of acoustic excitation with various frequencies for combustion air as well as fuel on the combustion emission and local NO concentration in diffusion flame were investigated experimentally. It was studied to investigate the effects of combination between four frequencies for the fuel and various frequencies for the combustion air. The better characteristic for NO emission was revealed by acoustic exciting with frequencies for the air and the fuel excited at 0Hz and 120Hz and the generation of CO was decreased at low frequency for fuel and the excited combustion air. The amount of combustion emission could be controlled by acoustic exciting of the combustion air. And when both fuel and air are excited by some frequencies, the diffusion flame was affected by frequency which excited fuel in the middle of the flame and by air-exciting frequency at both sides of the flame. The local NO in the flame was generated much less at the condition that fuel was excited by frequencies than the condition was not.
