초음파 기술은 공동현상(cavitation)에 의한 산화분해 및 열분해 과정을 이용해 오염물질을 저감시키는 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있으나 대부분 저용량 소규모(Lab scale) 실험에 그치고 있다. 본 연구에서는 대용량 연속식 처리가 가능한 Pilot Scale의 초음파 시스템을 개발하고, 분해 대상물질로 나프탈렌을 선정하여 개발된 시스템의 처리효율을 비교 검증하였다. 전반사가 유도된 최적의 다주파 조사 조건으로 V-$120^{\circ}$ 형태가 일반형에 비해 약 1.4~2.2배 우수한 효율을 나타내었다. V-$120^{\circ}$ 초음파 조사 형태, 연속식 처리가 가능하기 위한 유입 유출수 설치, 보조제 첨가부 및 외곽 냉각 순환시스템을 적용하여 총 3가지 형태의 pilot scale(20~40 L) 반응조를 제작하였다. 세 반응조의 나프탈렌 처리 결과는 모두 EPA의 나프탈렌 음용수 권고기준을 만족하였으며, 특히, 전반사 조건이 유도된 PS1과 PS2 type이 약 97% 이상의 우수한 분해효율을 보였다. 연속식(CSTR형) 처리 방식에서도 2.5~10 mg/L의 나프탈렌을 시간당 10~20 L를 처리한 결과 약 84~96%의 우수한 분해효율을 나타내었다. 인공 현장 지하수 조건에서의 초음파 적용시 초음파 효율의 큰 차이를 보이지 않아 개발된 본 시스템의 현장 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

도시유역에서 강우시에 발생되는 합류식 하수관거 월류수(CSOs; Combined Sewer Overflows)을 처리하기 위해 물리화학적 처리기법을 적용한 실증규모의 응집침전시스템을 개발하였다. 이에 앞서 응집침전시스템은 lab-test를 통해 도출된 최적의 설계조건이 실증규모로 증설할 시에 설계인자가 제대로 반영되었는지 평가가 필요하며, 최적조건에 따라 설계에 반영하였다 하더라도 대상원수의 유입특성에 따라서도 처리결과에 대한 평가가 다를 수가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 청주하수 처리장에 유입되는 CSOs를 대상으로 각각 $1m^3$/일과 $100m^3$/일의 CSOs를 처리할 수 있는 실험실규모 및 실증규모의 장치를 통해 실험을 수행하였다. 실증규모의 시스템을 운전하여 lab-test에서 도출된 설계인자와의 상사성을 검토하고, 이를 바탕으로 높은 처리효율을 유지하기 위한 운전인자를 적용하여 CSOs를 처리함에 있어 그 가능성을 평가하였다. 그 결과, 실험실 규모의 설계조건과 상사성을 만족하는 인라인믹서와 응집반응조의 조건을 도출할 수 있었으며, pilot-test를 운전하기 위한 적정 응집제 주입량을 도출하였고, 결과적으로 실증규모의 시스템에서도 CSOs를 대상으로 높은 효율의 응집침전처리를 가능하게 할 수 있었다.

Unlike many laboratory-scale studies on absorption of organic compounds (VOCs), limited pilot-scale studies have been reported. Accordingly, the present study was carried out to examine operation parameters for the effective control of a hydrophilic VOC (methyl ethyl ketone, MEK) by applying a circular pilot-scale packed-absorption system (inside diameter 37 cm ${\times}$ height 167 cm). The absorption efficiencies of MEK were investigated for three major operation parameters: input concentration, water flow rate, and ratio of gas flow-rate to washing water amount (water-to-gas ratio). The experimental set-up comprised of the flow control system, generation system, recirculation system, packed-absorption system, and outlet system. For three MEK input concentrations (300, 350, and 750 ppm), absorption efficiencies approached near 95% and then, decreased gradually as the operation time increased, thereby suggesting a non-steady state condition. Under these conditions, higher absorption efficiencies were shown for lower input concentration conditions, which were consistent with those of laboratory-scale studies. However, a steady state condition occurred for two input concentration conditions (100 and 200 ppm), and the difference in absorption efficiencies between these two conditions were insignificant. As supported by an established gas-liquid absorption theory, a higher water flow rate exhibited a greater absorption efficiency. Moreover, as same with the laboratory-scale studies, the absorption efficiencies increased as water-to-gas ratios increased. Meanwhile, regardless of water flow rates or water-to-gas ratios, as the operation time of the absorption became longer, the pH of water increased, but the elevation extent was not substantial (maximum pH difference, 1.1).

Korea Institute of Energy Research(KIER) has designed the 3MW pilot scale wet FGD process based on the experimental results of the bench scale FGD system which can treat 150 m3/hr of flue gases. The effects of process chemistry, packing material, and operating variables including L/G ratio, pH, scrubber pressure drop were investigated. In cooperation with Kyunggi Chemicals, the 3MW pilot scale plant was established on the industrial site at Onsan, Korea. This system has been operating since October 1999. This paper introduces an outline of the design features of the pilot plant and discusses its operational results.

Biodiesel (fatty acid alkyl esters), which is produced from sustainable resources such as vegetable oil, animal fat and waste oils, have used to as substitutes for petro-diesel. In this study, we investigate the performance of 30 L and 300 L pilot-scale biodiesel production system using alkali-catalyst transesterification from soybean oil and rapeseed oil produced at Jeju island in Korea. The 30 L-scale biodiesel production was performed to in the condition of reaction temperature $65^{\circ}C$, catalyst amount 1% (w/w) and oil to methanol molar ratio 1 : 8. At that reaction condition, the fatty acid methyl ester contents of product are above 98% within reaction time 30 min. Also, the conversion yield of over 98% was obtained in 300 L-scale biodiesel production system using rapeseed oil and soybean oil. The quality of biodiesel produced from reaction system was satisfied to recommended quality standard of Korea. Our results may provide useful information with regard to the scale-up of more economic and efficient biodiesel production process.

A pilot study was performed to examine the feasibility of multiple stage of constructed wetland (CW) for nutrient removal. The system is composed of six wetland cells connected with water-ways. The hydraulic of wetland cells is designed as free water surface flow. The treatment capacity was $25m^3d^{-1}$ at HRT of about one day for each cell. The magnitude of nutrient removal was related with the length of wetlands and plant density. Total N and P removal rates were 1353 and $246mg\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$ respectively. The pilot-scale reactor was model as continuous flow system containing contribution of CSTR and PFR typed-reactors. The $k-C^*$ model equation was applied to predict N and P reduction. The result indicated the equation was well guided to estimate reduction of $NO_3-N$ and $PO_4-P$.

A performance of pilot scale biofilter was investigated for the treatment of odorous waste gas. The system treated 508.7 $m^3h^{-1}$ of waste air with amine and ammonia concentrations ranging up to 0.06 $N-gm^{-3}$ Over the four month study, its elimination capacity was demonstrated up to 6.37 $N-gm^{-3}h^{-1}$ and its removal efficiency was 100%. Differ to lab scale biofilter, It is difficult to maintain the proper temperature of reactor because of low external temperature. Experiments were performed indicating various problem such as sudden system shut down, unstable pump, water addition malfunction and corrosion of reactor. However, pilot scale biofilter was stable when treatment of odorous waste gas.

We developed a pilot-job based large-scale distributed computing system to support HTC and MTC, called HTCaaS (High-Throughput Computing as a Service), which helps scientists solve large-scale scientific problems in areas such as pharmaceutical domains, high-energy physics, nuclear physics and bio science. Since most of these problems involve critical data that affect the national economy and activate basic industries, data privacy is a very important issue. In this paper, we implement a privacy enhanced data security mechanism to support HTC and MTC in a large-scale distributed computing system and show how this technique affects performance in our system. With this mechanism, users can securely store data in our system.

Gasification has been regarded as a very important technology to decrease environmental pollution and to obtain higher efficiency. The coal gasification process converts carbon containing coal into a syngas, composed primarily of CO and $H_2$. And the coal syngas can be used as a source for power generation or chemical material production. This paper illustrates the opeartion characteristics and results of pilot-scale coal syngas production facilities. The entrained-bed pilot scale coal gasifier was operated normally in the temperature range of $1,300{\sim}1,400^{\circ}C,\;2{\sim}3kg/cm^2$ pressure. And Indonesian KPC coal produced syngas that has a composition of $46{\sim}54%\;CO,\;20{\sim}26%\;H_2,\;and\;5{\sim}8%\;CO_2$.
