In order to satisfy the ULEV emissions regulation, fast light-off of a catalyst is essential for reduction of HC and CO emissions during the cold start. Cranking Exhaust Gas Ignition(CEGI) method developed in this study showed that the catalyst reaches the light-off temperature in a few seconds. The CEGI stops the ignition signal for a few seconds during the cranking period, so the unburned fuel-air mixture bypasses the combustion chamber and flows through the exhaust manifold. When the unburned mixture reaches two glow plugs installed upstream of the catalyst, it burns and releases the thermal energy to heat up the catalyst, In the FTP-75 vehicle tests, the CEGI showed that the exhaust emissions reduced by 47.7% for THC and by 88.6% for CO in the cold-transient phase of the test.

This paper presents a comparison of operating characteristics for industrial water cooler with variation control methods. The performance analysis regarding the characteristics of condensation capacity, evaporation capacity, compressor load, COP of an on-off type cooler, a hot gas-bypass control type cooler and an inverter control type cooler with respect to the system load is reviewed, respectively. The primary results are as following: the variation of required compressor load of an on-off type cooler with respect to load is 5%, that of hot gas-bypass type is 18% and 66% for an inverter control type cooler. As the result shows, an inverter control type yields relatively huge difference of required compressor load compared to other types of control system. In terms of partial load, COP of an inverter control type cooler presents the highest value, and is considered as the optimized type for the used of the system involving frequent partial load.

Since regulations of exhaust emissions are continuously reinforced, studies to reduce harmful emissions during the cold start period of SI engines have been carried out very extensively worldwide. During the cold start period, raising the temperature of cold exhaust gas is a key strategy to minimize the light-off time of three way catalysts. In this study, a synthetic gas containing a large amount of hydrogen was injected into the exhaust manifold to raise the exhaust gas temperature and to reduce harmful emissions. The authors tried to evaluate changes in exhaust gas temperature and harmful emissions through controlling the engine operating parameters such as ignition timings and lambda values. Also the authors investigated both combustion stability and reduction of harmful emissions. Experimental results showed that combustion of the synthetic gas in the exhaust manifold is a very effective way for solving the problems of harmful emissions and light-off time. The results also showed that the strategy of retarded ignition timings and increased air/fuel ratios with ESGI is effective in raising exhaust gas temperature and reducing harmful emissions. Futhermore, the results showed that engine operating parameters ought to be controlled to lambda = 1.2 and ignition timing = $0{\sim}3^{\circ}$ conditions to reduce harmful emissions effectively under stable combustion conditions.

The one-way gas valve developed in this study was designed to prevent the breakage of packages from increased internal pressure, which is a problem in packaged Kimchi, and simultaneously reduce the outflow of the offodor release. The effect of the one-way gas valve on the headspace atmospheric compositions was investigated in the packaging system. The changes of atmospheric compositions and quality factors of Kimchi, such as $CO_2$ accumulation, pH, titratable acidity, and salinity, were measured during a 4-week storage period at $4^{\circ}C$. The Kimchi package with the one-way gas valve dramatically reduced pressure build-up in the pouch by allowing the controlled flow of gas to the atmosphere. In addition, the package design allows the possibility of controlling the gas generated from Kimchi by adjusting the viscosity of the open pressure control oil. The one-way gas valve did not affect the sensory characteristics of Kimchi products during the storage period. Furthermore, the deodorizing capability of the activated carbon contained in the one-way gas valve effectively reduced the off-odor of Kimchi products released along with carbon dioxide. The novel one-way gas valve is considered to be an active packaging system that can solve major problems of expansion and off-odor leakage in the packaging of Kimchi.

Close-coupled catalyst (CCC) can reduce the engine cold-start emissions by utilizing the energy in the exhaust gas. However, in case the engine is operated at high engine speed and load condition, the catalytic converter may be damaged and eventually deactivated by thermal aging. Excess fuel is sometimes supplied intentionally to lower the exhaust gas temperature avoiding the thermal aging. This sacrifices the fuel economy and exhaust emissions. This paper describes the results of an exhaust heat exchanger to lower the exhaust gas temperature mainly under high load conditions. The heat exchanger was installed between the exhaust manifold and the inlet of close-coupled catalytic converter. The exhaust heat exchanger successfully decreased the exhaust gas temperature, which eliminated the requirement of fuel enrichment under high load conditions. However, the cooling of the exhaust gas through the heat exchanger may cause the deterioration of exhaust emissions at cold start due to the increment of catalyst light-off time.

The key point that guarantees the durability of the ceramic monolith filter is to lower peak temperature and temperature gradient inside filter during regeneration. The control of the exhaust gas flow rate into the filter, by the bypass technique of the exhaust gas, enables the gas temperature in filter to be constant for regeneration. A couple of methods, which are the ON/OFF and PID control of the bypass valve, were used for feedback control of the gas temperature. These techniques showed that the ceramic filter was regenerated perfectly under the peak temperature and peak temperature gradient limitations for durability.

본 연구에서는 활성 슬러지 하수처리장에서 배출되는 off-gas에 대한 포집 및 측정 모니터링을 통해 폭기조의 산소전달효율을 측정하고 청수와 비교하여 시스템의 신뢰성을 검증하는 연구를 수행하였다. 먼저, 청수를 기반으로 용존산소, 산소전달계수 및 표준산소전달효율을 측정하였으며 각각 8.60 mg/L, 9.49/hr, 23.96%의 값이 얻어졌다. 한편, 하수처리장 현장에서 진행한 off-gas 시험 결과 표준산소전달효율이 22.81%로 계산되어 청수와의 차이가 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 현장에 설치된 산기관의 성능 및 폭기조의 상황을 모니터링 시스템을 이용해 실시간으로 확인함으로써 신뢰성있는 데이터를 확보할 수 있음을 의미한다.

LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)기지의 LNG 저장탱크에서 BOG (Boil Off Gas)가 약 0.5 vol%/day로 자연적으로 생성된다. 이를 회수하기 위해서 기존에는 LNG와 BOG를 1:12의 질량비로 직접 접촉시켜 액화시켰다. 이 공정은 단순하지만 하절기에는 LNG 사용량 저하로 인해 공정운영의 어려움이 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 대안된 LNG 냉열을 사용하는 간접접촉방식을 HYSYS를 이용하여 분석해보고 직접접촉방식과 BOG 재액화 효율비교를 통해 분석하여 유리한 공정을 도출하였다.

해양의 환경오염을 줄이기 위하여 LNG 운송선박, 벙커링 선박 및 LNG를 연료로 추진되는 선박의 건조가 증가하고 있다. 이러한 LNG 선박의 저장탱크들은 외부로부터의 열유입으로 증발가스가 지속적으로 발생하고 있으며, 최근 국내 조선사들은 이 BOG를 재액화하여 회수하는 장치를 개발하여 보급하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 부분재액화 처리장치들의 이론적 최대 재액화 수율을 분석하고 재액화 수율에 미치는 영향 인자들을 비교하였다. 해석결과, BOG와 플래시 가스가 보유한 냉열을 열교환으로 간접 이용하는 부분재액화 처리장치는 최대 48.7%가 되었으며, BOG와 플래시 가스가 혼합 합체되어 냉열이 직접 이용되는 부분재액화 처리장치는 최대 41%로 해석되었다. 또한 액체 수율에 크게 영향을 미치는 인자로는 열교환기의 효율로 열교환기의 성능과 단열이 매우 중요한 것임을 알 수 있다.
