A pilot-scale sand-box experiment simulating a lateral of collector well used in riverbank filtration was performed, and hydraulic head distributions along the lateral were measured according to the various drawdowns at the well. The results of this experiment were compared to the predicted values obtained using a theory previously developed by Kim in order for its validation. This theory predicts the head loss in a large-scale lateral given the loss in a small-scale one, and to have actual values for comparison, the results from a lab-scale experiment previously performed by Kim were employed. Comparing the experimental values to the extrapolated value indeed confirmed the validity of the theory. A procedure to determine the hydraulic head distribution of a practical-scale lateral was also presented applying the theory to the experimental result of this study in an effort to show the process of lateral design for riverbank filtration.

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.

Pilot scale study was carried out to produce Volatile Fatty Acids with primary sludge from municipal wastewater treatment plant. An acid fermenter was operated at pH 9, $35^{\circ}C$, SRT of 3.5-4.25d, using a final effluent as elutriating water(Mode-I) and pH 9, SRT 5d, temperature of $35^{\circ}C$(Mode-II), $55^{\circ}C$(Mode-III), using a primarily treated water as elutriating water. Although solubilization rate was enhanced with the increase of temperature, the VFAs production rate was decreased. The VS reduction was shown approximately 56%, and the sludge volume reduction was 93%. The optimal conditions for solubilization was obtained at pH 9, $35^{\circ}C$ and SRT of 5d.

Cyclonic-dissolved air flotation(Cyclonic-DAF), an advanced form of pressure flotation, applies a structure that enables the forming of twirling flows. This in turn allows for suspended matter to adhere to microbubbles and float to the surface of a treatment tank during the process of intake water flowing through a float separation tank. This study conducted a lab-scale test and pursued geometrical modeling using computational fluid dynamics(CFD) to establish a pilot scale design. Based on the design parameters found through the above process, a pilot cyclonic-DAF system($10m^3/hr$) for removing algae was created. Upon developing the pilot-scale cyclonic-DAF system, a type of algae coagulant(R-119) was applied as the coagulant to the system for field testing through which the removal rates of chlorophyll-a and cyanobacteria were evaluated. The chlorophyll-a and harmful cyanobacteria of the raw water at region B, the field-test site, were found to be $177.9mg/m^3$ and 652,500cells/mL respectively. Treated waters applied with 60mg/L and 100mg/L of algae coagulant presented removal efficiencies of approximately 95% and 97%, respectively. The cyanobacteria cell number of the treated waters applied with 60mg/L and 100mg/L of algae coagulant both that were equal to or less than 1,000cells/mL and were below attention level criteria for the issuance of algae boundary.

Recently, the treatment of that wastes according to increase of food waste has been a great problem of modern society for long time. This study was aimed to evaluate possibility for food waste and sewage sludge mixture treatment using pilot scale two-phase anaerobic digester. Pilot scale two-phase anaerobic digestion system was performanced at 1 : 9 mixture ratio of food waste and sewage sludge infield. The detention time of digester was 20days. The average COD and VS removal efficiencies in organic loading rate $3.03kg\;TCOD/m^3-day$ were 57.7 and 47.7%, and the gas production rate and methane content were $0.4m^3/kg$ VS-day and 65.3%, respectively. TS, VS and VS/TS(%) of mixing tank were 4.44%, 2.59% and 58.34%, respectively and TS. VS and VS/TS(%) of digester in steady state were 3.32%, 1.39% and 41.90%, respectively, Through this study. it was possible to accomplish effective mixture treatment of the sewage sludge and food waste.

A pilot scale continuous Kimchi pasteurizer was used to study some factors affecting the retardation of acidification of Chinese radish Kimchi, stored at $20^{\circ}C$. The degrees of acidification of Kimchi were measured in terms of pH, acidity and absorbance. The shelf-life of the pasteurization temperature from 60 to $70^{\circ}C$ did not result in any significant effect on delaying the acidification of Kimchi during storage, while lowering of storage temperature from 25 to $5^{\circ}C$ gave rise to a marked increase in the the shelf-life of Kimchi.

The scope of this study was to develop, design, and build an ex-situ remediation system of using the heating and water sparging treatment for the highly volatile DNAPL (Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid) contaminated groundwater, and to conduct pilot testing at the site contaminated with DNAPL. The TCE (Trichloroethylene) removal was at the highest rate of 94.6% with the water sparging at $70^{\circ}C$ in the lab-scale test. The pilot-scale remediation system was developed, designed, and fabricated based on the results of the lab-scale test conducted. During the pilot-scale testing, DNAPL-contaminated groundwater was detained at heat exchanger for the certain period of time for pre-heating through the heat exchanger using the thermal energy supplied from the heater. The heating system supplies thermal energy to the preheated DNAPL-contaminated groundwater directly and its highly volatile TCE, $CCl_4$ (Carbontetrachloride), Chloroform are vaporized, and its vaporized and treated water is return edback to the heat exchanger. In the pilot testing the optimum condition of the HWSRS was when the water temperature at the $40^{\circ}C$ and operated with water sparging concurrently, and its TCE removal rate was 90%. The efficiency of the optimized HWSRS has been confirmed through the long-term performance evaluation process.

코크스 오븐에서 석탄 건류과정 중에 발생하는 석탄 중심의 가스압 특성에 대한 장입탄 수분, 가열속도 및 일반탄 배합비의 영향을 조사하기 위해 이동벽이 있는 pilot 규모의 코크스 오븐(0.45mW$\times$0.1mH$\times$1.2mL)에서 석탄 건류 실험을 수행하였다. 석탄 중심에서의 가열속도가 상업용 코크스 오븐과 비슷한 건류조건에서 장입탄 수분을 감소시켰을 때, 수분 증발 이후 가열속도는 비슷하였으며, 건류 초기 수증기압은 크게 증가하였고, 석탄 중심에서의 가스압은 습탄에 비해 대략 2.5배 증가하였다. 석탄 중심에서의 가열속도가 상업용 코크스 오븐보다 훨씬 빠른 건류조건에서 장입탄 수분을 감소시켰을 때, 수분 증발 이후 가열속도는 크게 감소하였고, 건류 초기 수증기압은 크게 증가하였으며, 석탄중심에서의 가스압은 습탄에 비해 대략 2배 증가하였다. 석탄 가열속도가 상업용 오븐보다 빠른 건류조건에서 장입탄에 일반탄을 첨가하여 일반탄 배합비를 증가시켰을 때 배합탄 중심에서의 가스압은 현저히 감소하였다.

In this paper, the effects of water contents on combustion characteristics of paper sludge and capacity of fluidized bed combustor(FBC) were investigated using 0.26m diameter, 1.75m height pilot-plant scale combustor. Combustion tests of paper sludge containing water contents between 40wt% and 50wt% were performed. The temperature and emission variation, the pressure inside combustor were measured to monitor the fluidization quality. The experimental results showed that 30kg/hr feeding rate of sludge containing water up to 45wt% was preferable for this system. Sludge loading rate, heat release rate were calculated from experimental data as major parameters showing FBC capacity. Comparsion with sludge loading rate from other source was also performed

Partitioning tracers have been used with non-partitioning, inert tracer such Br, for detection, estimation, and monitoring of remediation performance of the subsurface contaminated with nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). Various partitioning tracers with different partition coefficients between aqueous and nonaqueous phase liquids can be used to determine the hydraulic conductivity, dispersivity, and residual mass of NAPLs in the subsurface soil matrices. Temporal moment-generating equations were used to analyze the field pilot-scale test results. The pilot-scale tests included conservative tracer tests and partitioning tracer tests. Analyses of nonaqueous phase liquid distribution and characteristics of groundwater bearing soil media were performed.
