  • As the importance of renewable energy diffusion spreads, promotion of sustainable renewable energy projects such as agrivoltaics is expected to accelerate. Furthermore, to promote agrivoltaics projects, it must be considered the legislation related to agrivoltaics and Chungnam Province's local policy. This research focuses on the selection of the most suitable sites for agrivoltaics installations in Chungnam Province in South Korea. Therefore, the process of this research was as follows. First, the legislation related to agrivoltaics and local policy in Chungnam Province were identified. Second, it employs an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to consider important criteria and their weights for site selection. Third, based on the weights calculated AHP, geographic information system (GIS) was performed to select most suitable location selection of agrivoltaics installations in Chungnam Province. The analysis identified approximately 60 promising most suitable location for agrivoltaics installations in Chungnam Province, primarily in the northern part of Chungnam Province. These areas are expected to meet electricity demands in nearby regions since these are relatively adjacent to Gyeonggi Province. According to the results of research, policy suggestions related to agrivoltaics were presented separately into the agricultural sector and the electricity power sector. The study's results serve as a valuable resource for future national-level candidate site selection for agrivoltaics projects.

  • The marine environment is under considerable threat from intentional or accidental oil spills, ballast water discharged, dredging and infilling for coastal development, and uncontrolled sewage and industrial wastewater discharges. Monitoring spills and illegal oil discharges is an important component in ensuring compliance with marine protection legislation and general protection of the coastal environments. For the monitoring task an image processing system is needed that can efficiently perform the detection and the tracking of oil spills and in this direction a significant amount of research work has taken place mainly with the use of radar (SAR) remote sensing data. In this paper the level set image segmentation technique was tested for the detection of oil spills. Level set allow the evolving curve to change topology (break and merge) and therefore boundaries of particularly intricate shapes can be extracted. Experimental results demonstrated that the level set segmentation can be used for the efficient detection and monitoring of oil spills, since the method coped with abrupt shape’s deformations and splits.

  • Cordyceps cardinalis successfully produced its fruiting bodies from multi-ascospore isolates. However, subcultures of multiascospore isolates could not produce fruiting bodies after few generations. Fruiting body production also differed from sector to sector of the same isolate. Single ascospore isolates were then co-inoculated in combinations of two to observe the fruiting characteristics. Combinations of certain isolates produced perithecial stromata formation, whereas other combinations did not produce any fruiting bodies. These results show that C. cardinalis is a heterothallic fungus, requiring two isolates of opposite mating types for fruiting body production. It was also shown that single ascospore isolates are hermaphrodites.

  • Solar water pumping system (SWPS) is reliable and beneficial for Indian farmers in irrigation and crop production without accessing utility. The capability of easy installation and deployment, makes it an attractive option in remote areas without grid access. The selection of portable solar based pumps is pertaining to its longer life and economic viability due to lower running cost. The work presented in this manuscript intends to demonstrate performance analysis of portable systems. Consequent investigation reveals PSWS as the emerging option for rural household and marginal farmers. This can be attributed to the fact that, a considerable portion (around 45.7%) of the country's land is farmland and irrigation options are yet to reach farmers who entirely rely on rain water at present for harvesting of the crops. According to census 2010-2011 tube wells are the main source for irrigation amongst all other sources followed by canals. Out of the total 64.57-million-hectare net irrigation area, 48.16% is accounted by small and marginal holdings, 43.77% by semi-medium and medium holdings, and 8.07% by large holdings. As per 2015-16 census data, nearly 100 million farming households would struggle to make ends meet. The work included in this manuscript, presents the performance of different commercial brands and different technologies of DC surface solar water micro pumping systems have been studied (specifically, the centrifugal and reciprocating type pumps have been considered for analysis). The performance of the pumping systems has been analyzed and data is evaluated in terms of quantity of water impelled for specific head. The reciprocating pump has been observed to deliver the best system efficiency.

  • The use of antibiotics in Korean swine production has been changing to a restricted use of in-feed antibiotics. These antibiotics, which are also growth promoters, are powerful for disease control. Due to this issue, the swine industry is consistently looking for any kind of alternatives to antibiotics such as new feed ingredients, feed additives, feed formulation practices, or feeding methods to improve pig health and performance. In general, dietary factors provide bioavailable nutrients and/or affect physiological activity to modify the physiological condition, immune system, or microbial population of pigs to improve their performance and health. Thus, it is suggested that dietary factors may be important components in the growth and health management of pigs. Using an alternative grain feed such as rice, barley, and oats, low protein diets or low-high energy diets can be used as solutions to manage the effect of stress factors that cause growth and health problems at specific time points during the stages of pig production. Several studies support that these alternative feeds and dietary factors may improve pig growth and health by changes in intestinal conditions, immunity, or other physiological conditions compared with typical feed ingredients and diet management in pig production. Therefore, feed ingredients, low protein levels, and different energy contents in swine diets were reviewed to better understand how these dietary factors can contribute to improved pig performance and health under different physiological conditions.

  • The effectiveness of four air fresher (AF) systems was evaluated with respect to their removal efficiencies against offensive odorants. For this purpose, malodorous species were generated by exposing freshly cooked foods emitting odorants with levels moderately above their respective threshold values in a confined room. The deodorization efficiency of the four AF systems was then tested for a period of 30 min by estimating the extent of reduction in odorant levels after the operation of each AF. The removal efficiency of the four AF units against each odorant was evaluated as follows: (1) between AF products from different manufacturers, (2) between odorants and ultrafine particulate matter ($PM_{2.5}$), and (3) between operation and natural degassing. The average sorptive removal of odorants was generally <80% and considered less effective or non-effective relative to $PM_{2.5}$. Further examination of odor reduction, if evaluated in terms of odor indices like odor intensity (OI) and odor activity value (OAV), recorded a mean of 33% and 87%, respectively. The overall results of this study confirmed that all tested AF units were not effective to resolve odor problems created under our testing conditions.

  • The Korean government has been making efforts to use renewable energy to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels for the heating system in greenhouses. The number of greenhouses that installed a geothermal heat pump system is 201 EA with the volume of 132.8 ha and 108,467kW from 2010-2014. The geothermal system, called a shallow geothermal system, with the temperature of $10-20^{\circ}C$ has accessories composed of a BHE and heat pump. Moreover, it is necessary to have a wide area to install the BHE and to drill to the depth of 200 m. On the other hand, even though the deep geothermal system needs a high drilling cost to obtain the temperature of $40-150^{\circ}C$, the system has the advantages of the small area required for the BHE and operation without a heat pump. In this study, the temperature of the return water and heat capacity were measured to obtain the geothermal energy efficiently on the condition of the water flow being changed in the BHE. The temperature according to the return water changes through the heat conduction based on the increase of ground temperature up to the underground depth has been calculated to conduct a simulation and is compared with the field experiment test results.

  • 형광등이나 LED와 같은 인공광을 사용하는 식물공장(인공광 식물공장)은 계절에 상관없이 광, 온도 및 습도 등을 인위적으로 제어하면서 작물을 안정적으로 연중 생산할 수 있는 시스템이다. 본 연구에서는 수경재배 방식을 채택하고 있는 인공광 식물공장 시스템 내에서 엽채재배용 배양액을 이용한 방풍나물의 수경재배 가능성과 혼합광질이 생장에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 방풍나물은 청색과 적색 LED를 1:1 및 1:3의 비율로 혼합한 혼합광 조건에서 90일간 수행하였다. 광원의 광강도는 $100{\mu}mol/m^2/s$로 설정한 후 30일 간격으로 지상부 잎을 3회 수확하여 생장량을 조사하였다. 재배기간 동안 형광등과 LED의 혼합광 조사는 방풍나물 지상부 생장에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 재배개시 30일째 방풍나물 지상부 생체중 및 건물중은 형광등+청색+적색의 혼합광(청, 적색 혼합비율 1:3, FLBR13구)에 의한 영향을 받아, 대조구인 형광등 조사구(FL구)에 비해 각각 3.7배 및 2배 증가하였다. 또한 식물체당 전개엽수는 FLBR13구에서 형광등+청색+적색 혼합광(청, 적색 혼합비율 1:1) 조사구인 FLBR11구에 비해 유의하게 증가하였다. LED와 형광등을 혼합 조사한 처리구에서와 같이, 형광등을 혼합하지 않고 청색과 적색의 LED만을 혼합하여 조사한 처리구에서도 청색과 적색의 혼합비율이 1:1인 BR11구에 비해 적색광의 혼합비율을 3배 증가시킨 BR13구에서 방풍나물의 지상부 생장이 촉진되었다.
