Authors evaluated the feasibility of a permeable reactive biobarrier (PRB) treated with biofilm formed by Beijerinckia indica (B.indica). This study focused on evaluating two potentials of B.indica for the requirements of PRB: reducing the hydraulic conductivity and degrading the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The hydraulic conductivity was estimated by rigid wall column test and finally the values were converted to the values of intrinsic permeability. The nutrient solution was passed through the biobarrier column to activate the bacterium and then leachate was in turn carried into the column to evaluate the durability of the biobarrier. Phenanthrene was selected as a representative substance of PAHs. The ability of degrading phenanthrene by B.indica was evaluated by two-phase partitioning bioreactor after estimating the possibility with two pretests: observing the colony formation and the optical density on glucose-free medium containing phenanthrene. With the results, B.indica produced large amount of strongly adhesive exopolysaccharides (EPS) and reduced several orders of magnitude of the hydraulic conductivity after 2 weeks of cultivation. Furthermore, about 1000mg/1 of phenanthrene could be degraded by B.indica in the two-phase partitioning bioreactor. In conclusion, the application of the bacterium, B.indica, was found to have a potential role of a PRB to retain and remove contaminants in porous media.

We tested Trichoderma harzianum as a biocontrol agent for Rhizoctonia solani AG2-1, using six natural antifungal materials to improve its efficacy. Among the six materials tested, peony (Paeonia suffruticosa) root bark (PRB) showed the strongest antifungal activity against R. solani AG2-1, and was not antagonistic to T. harzianum. Scanning electron microscopy showed that treatment with PRB extract resulted in shortened and deformed R. so/ani AG2-1 hyphal cells. The control of radish damping-off caused by R. so/ani AG2-1 was greatly increased by combined treatments of T. harzianum and PRB, as compared with either of the two treatments alone, with the control effect increased from 42.3-51.5% to 71.4-87.6%. The antifungal compound in PRB, which was isolated in chloroform and identified as paeonol by mass spectrometry, $^1H$ NMR, and $^{13}C$ NMR analyses, inhibited the growth of R. so/ani AG2-1 but not that of T. harzianum. Thus, PRB powder or extract may be used as a safe additive to T. harzianum to improve the control of the soil borne diseases caused by R. so/ani AG2-1.

Cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2) is a member of the cytochrome P450 family of isozymes involved in the phase I drug metabolism of vertebrates. CYP1A2 is responsible for the activation of a number of aromatic amines to mutagenic and carcinogenic forms. Thus, the level of CYP1A2, which varies among different populations, may determine an individual's susceptibility to these chemicals. We have previously reported on the importance of a cis element named PRB (protected region B) in the regulation of human Cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2) gene, which appeared to act as a positive regulatory element. Closer examination of the PRB sequence (-2218 to -2187 bp) revealed a putative AP-1 binding site, TGACTAA, at -2212 bp (Chung and Bresnick, 1997). To elucidate the role of AP-1 in CYP1A2 regulation, we transiently overexpressed c-Jun and c-Fos transcription factors in human hepatoma HepG2 cells, and examined their influence on the CYP1A2 promoter activity by reporter gene assays. Cotransfection of the c-Jun and the c-Fos expression vectors increased the induced transactivation by five to six fold from the CYP1A2 promoter constructs. However, deletion of the PRB element did not affect the degree of activation by the c-Jun and the c-Fos. Therefore, it is unlikely that the c-Jun and the c-Fos activate the CYP1A2 promoter through this AP-1 consensus-like sequence in the PRB region.

무선 성능 향상을 통해 다양한 이동 멀티미디어 서비스 제공을 목표로 하는 3G Long Term Evolution (3G LTE)은 Packet Switching (PS) 도메인에서 VoIP 기반 음성 서비스를 제안하고 있다 패킷 지연과 손실에 민감한 VoIP 트래픽을 PS 도메인을 통해 처리할 경우 기존 3G 시스템의 CS 도메인 기반 음성 서비스와 달리 여러 가지 기술적 어려움이 예상된다. 더욱이 OFDM을 물리계층으로 채택한 3G LTE는 Physical Resource Block (PRB) 단위로 전송 자원을 관리함에 따라 새로운 자원관리 방식 개발도 필요하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 3G LTE 의 VoIP 기반 음성 서비스를 위한 MAC 계층의 PRB 할당 스케줄링 알고리즘을 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통한 검증 결과를 보인다. 알고리즘의 핵심은 VoIP 우선 모드를 동적으로 활성화하여 VoIP 서비스의 QoS를 보장하고, 이러한 우선 모드 적용으로 인한 시스템 자원효율성 저하를 최소화하기 위해 우선 모드 지속시간을 적응적 조절하는 것이다.

The supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO₂) Brayton cycle is an important energy conversion technology for the fourth generation of nuclear energy. Since the printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) used in the S-CO₂ Brayton cycle has narrow channels, Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection is likely to exist in the tiny channels. However, there are very few studies on RB convection in supercritical fluids. Current research on RB convection mainly focuses on conventional fluids such as water and air that meet the Boussinesq assumption. It is necessary to study non-Boussinesq fluids. PRB convection refers to RB convection that is affected by horizontal incoming flow. In this paper, the computational fluid dynamics simulation method is used to study the PRB convection phenomenon of non-Boussinesq fluid-supercritical carbon dioxide. The result shows that the inlet Reynolds number (Re) of the horizontal incoming flow significantly affects the PRB convection. When the inlet Re remains unchanged, with the increase of Rayleigh number (Ra), the steady-state convective pattern of the fluid layer is shown in order: horizontal flow, local traveling wave, traveling wave convection. If Ra remains unchanged, as the inlet Re increases, three convection patterns of traveling wave convection, local traveling wave, and horizontal flow will appear in sequence. To characterize the relationship between traveling wave convection and horizontal incoming flow, this paper proposes the relationship between critical Reynolds number and relative Rayleigh number (r).

Permeable reactive barrier (PRB) is a prominent in-situ remedial option for cleanup of contaminated groundwater and has been gaining increasing popularity in recent years. Funnel-and-gate systems, comprised of two side wings of impermeable walls and a central gate wall, are frequently implemented in many sites, but often suffers from bypassing of groundwater due to the progressive clogging of the gate wall over extended period of time. This study investigated technical feasibility of a hybrid funnel-and-gate system designed to address the flow deterioration in the gate wall. The key attribute of the proposed hybrid system is the operation of drainage units at the barrier walls and rear end of the gate wall. A conceptual modeling with MODFLOW indicated the groundwater inside the barrier was maintained at appropriate level to be guided toward the gate wall, yielding constant discharging of groundwater from the gate.

질산성 질소는 강변여과수에서 가장 흔히 발견되는 오염물질 중의 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 황을 이용한 독립영양탈질 공정을 강변여과수의 질산성 질소제거를 위한 반응벽체 기법에 도입하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 현장에서의 실제 강변여과수를 이용한 주 파일럿 실험을 통해 반응벽체 시스템에서 미생물 접종의 영향과 대체 알칼리도 공급원으로서 굴패각의 영향을 알아보고, 유량변화 및 체류시간 변화에 따른 질산성 질소 제거효율을 평가하는 것이다. 황과 석회석 또는 굴패각으로 구성된 준 파일럿 규모의 투수성 반응벽체(PRB) 6기를 경남 낙동강 유역 강변여과수 취수 현장에 설치하여 운전한 결과, 하수처리장의 혐기 소화 슬러지로부터 분리배양된 황탈질미생물 콘소시움 뿐만 아니라 굴패각의 자생미생물의 활성에 의해서 강변여과수의 질산성 질소가 제거됨을 확인하였고 석회석뿐만 아니라 굴패각도 시스템의 pH 조절을 위한 알칼리도 공급원으로 이용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 알칼리도 공급원으로서 굴패각의 이용은 높은 황산이온의 농도와 고형물의 농도를 야기하였다. 80 cm의 반응벽체 두께에서, 유량을 66에서 132 mL/min까지 증가시킴으로써 체류시간을 15에서 7.5시간으로 감소시킴에 따라 질산성 질소 제거효율은 75에서 58%로 감소하였다.

중금속으로 오염된 산성 지하수의 현장 정화방법으로 투수성반응벽체 기술의 적용 가능성을 평가하기 위하여 반응매질 선정을 위한 실내실험을 수행하였다. 처리대상 오염지하수로 이용한 임기광산 폐석적치장 침출수는 낮은 pH와 높은 금속농도를 갖는다(산도부하량으로 65 kg $CaCO_3$/일, 금속부하량(Fe+Al+Mn)으로 11.6kg/일). 이러한 특성의 오염지하수는 반응매질로 유기탄소 혼합물을 이용하여 황산염환원 반응에 의한 처리가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 다섯 가지 서로 다른 배합비를 갖는 버섯퇴비, 소나무 바크, 석회석의 혼합 반응매질을 이용한 배치실험 결과를 통해 보면 투수성반응벽체를 적용할 경우 산도부하량은 12.3kg $CaCO_3$/일, 금속부하량은 3.3kg/일로 줄일 수 있다. 대상 지하수의 낮은 pH와 높은 금속부하량을 고려하여 무기탄소를 위주로 한 완충용 반응벽체를 먼저 두고, 이어서 유기탄소 혼합물로 구성되는 반응벽체로 황산염 환원을 유도하는 방법 적용한다면 보다 효과적인 광산배수에 대한 정화를 기대할 수 있을 것이다.
