Many farmers have been seeking alternatives to chemical fertilizer for successful organic fruit production. This experiment was carried out to investigate the replaceability of chemical fertilizer by cover crop and slurry composting biofiltration (SCB) liquid manure (LM) application in pear orchard. Three treatments were contained in this experiment; cover crop only and cover crop + LM treatment, and control (chemical fertilizer application). Dry weight and mineral contents of gramineous cover crops were significantly increased in LM-combined treatments than that of leguminous species. Bulk density of soil was decreased in rye + LM and hairy vetch + LM treatments, compared with each cover crop treatment. Soil pH was lowest in fertilizer treatment and soil nitrate content became similar between treatments after rainy season. Available soil phosphate was lower in cover crop and cover crop + LM treatmemts than control, but exchangeable Mg was higher. The mineral content and net assimilation rate of leaves showed no difference between the treatments. As a result, it is suggested that the application of SCB liquid manure in pear orchard managed by cover crops is desirable to maintain the productivity by improving soil physical properties and potential nutrient recovery.

An experimental method was suggested for obtaining fracture toughness ($K_{Ic}$) and the tensile strength (${\sigma}_t$) of chopped strand glass fiber reinforced polymer concretes (PC). Semi-circular bend (SCB) specimens subjected to three-point bending were used for conducting the experiments on the PC material. While the edge cracked SCB specimen could be used to evaluate fracture toughness, the tensile strength was obtained from the un-cracked SCB specimen. The experiments showed the practical applicability of both cracked and un-cracked SCB specimens for using as suitable techniques for measuring $K_{Ic}$ and ${\sigma}_t$ in polymer concretes. In comparison with the conventional rectangular bend beam specimen, the suggested SCB samples need significantly less material due to its smaller size. Furthermore, the average values of ${\sigma}_t$ and $K_{Ic}$ of tested PC were approximately 3.5 to 4.5 times the corresponding values obtained for conventional concrete showing the improved strength properties of PC relative to the conventional concretes.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of application of swine slurry (SS) and slurry composting-biofilteration liquid fertilizer (SCB) on productivity of sorghum${\times}$sorghum hybrid (SSH) and soil environment in reclaimed land of Sukmoon in Korea. Dry matter (DM) yields of SSH in the treatments of SS and chemical fertilizer (CF) were higher than those of in SCB treatment in reclaimed land, but DM yields in SS and CF did not show a significant difference as compared to SCB. Nutritive values of SSH were not different among CF, SS and SCB. In soil samples collected at the end of the experiment, the concentration of organic matter was significantly increased by SS and SCB as compare to that at the beginning of the experiment (P<0.05), whereas the concentration of total nitrogen was not affected by SS and SCB. To investigate the moisture content of soil, the soils were collected from three layers; surface (0~5 cm), intermediate (10~15 cm), and deep (20~25 cm) layer. The moisture contents of soils increased according to the soil depth and the soil moisture was immediately affected by the amount of rainfall. Therefore, we suggest that the cultivation of SSH using SS in reclaimed land is possible and that additional nitrogen fertilizer was surely applied in case of application of SCB to cultivate SSH.

2012년 가축분뇨 해양투기가 전면 금지됨에 따라 가축분뇨의 자원화의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 하지만 현재 가축분뇨 발생량의 일부는 퇴비화로 농경지로 환원되고 있으며, 지역에 따라 일부 지역에서는 농경지면적 대비 가축분뇨 필요량을 초과하는 것으로 나타나, 산림지 및 조림지역으로의 가축분뇨 환원이 새로운 대안중 하나로 대두되고 있다. 특히, SCB (Slurry Composting and Biofiltration) 액비는 성분이 비교적 균질하고 저농도이며 냄새가 없어 산림유역에 시비가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 하지만, 액비 시비량에 따라 수분 및 영양성분 수지 불균형 등을 초래하여 토양에 축적될 우려가 있고, 지하수로 침출될 가능성이 있어 이에 대한 모니터링이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산림유역 중 백합나무 조림지인 바이오순환림과 포플러 조림지인 유휴지에 SCB액비를 시용하였을 때 지하수에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 매주 지하수 수질 모니터링을 실시하였다. 특히, 청색증 등을 유발시켜 지하수 오염의 지표인 질산성질소를 중심으로 지하수 수질 분석을 하였으며 질산성질소의 오염원을 판단하기 위하여 질소 동위원소비를 분석하였다. 시험림의 물리적 특성이 다른 두 산림유역에서의 SCB액비 시용에 따른 지하수 모니터링 결과는 향후 지속적인 모니터링이 이루어진다면 산림지에서 SCB액비 시용에 따른 수질영향 평가 및 모델링 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Soda-AQ pulp made from sugarcane bagasse (SCB) and oil palm trunk (OPT) were bleached in element chlorine free (ECF) sequence. Bleached SCB and OPT pulp was achieve higher brightness than 85.0% ISO. Viscosity of SCB bleached pulp and OPT bleached pulp were achieved 18-27 cPs and 18-26 cPs. In 7.8% active chlorine dioxide addition, bleached SCB pulp was shown 88.7% ISO brightness and 20.4 cPs viscosity. And bleached OPT pulp was shown 88.5% ISO brightness and 18.8 cPs viscosity with 7.8% active chlorine dioxide addition.

When driven with a short (less than 30$\mu\textrm{s}$) low-energy pulse, the semiconductor bridge(SCB) produces a hot plasma that ignites explosive. The shape of plasma was observed using ultra high speed camera, the generation and the duration time of plasma were estimated by analyzing the ultra high speed camera image. The more energy supplied, the sooner the formation of the plasma was, and the size of the plasma was increased in proportion. The voltage variation of the bridge was measured and analyzed by comparing with the ultra high speed camera image.

In this paper, we propose to research the dynamic Matlab/Simulink model of supercapacitor bank(SCB) for a microgrid application. We demonstrated that this model id sufficient to design the control system of entire power storage system, SCB, the chopper and grid connected converter. The proposed dynamic model is simulated with the help of Matlab/$Simulink^{TK}$ in the MTG/PC/SCB hybrid energy system. The study results show that SCB have a good performance to curb power fluctuation in building microgrid application.

We have developed a polysilicon semiconductor bridge (SCB) igniter which produces a plasma discharge that ignites explosive materials pressed against the bridge. Our experiments have demonstrated that the SCB produces a hot plasma that ignites explosives, when driven with a short, low energy peak. The SCB, a heavily-doped film, typically 100 $\mu\textrm{m}$long by 300 $\mu\textrm{m}$ wide 5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thick, is 30 times smaller in volume than a conventional bridge. We described the SCB operation and processing, and the requirement of obtaining a plasma discharge in order to ignite the explosive material.

Plasma ignition method has been applied in various fields particularly to the rocket propulsion, pyrotechnics, explosives, and to the automotive air-bag system. Ignition method for those applications should be safe and also operate reliably in hostile environments such as; electromagnetic noise, drift voltage, electrostatic background and so on. In the present study, a semiconductor bridge (SCB) plasma ignition device was fabricated and its plasma characteristics including the propagation speed of the plasma, plasma size, and plasma temperature were investigated with the aid of the visualization of micro scale plasma $(i.e.,\;\leq\;350\;{\mu}m)$, which generated from a Micro-Electro-Mechanical poly-silicon semiconductor bridge (SCB).

Morphologically different 18 strains were isolated and examined for their abilities to inhibit ACE. Those strains were cultured in the medium containing 10% of soybean extract at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 48hr or fermented with boiled soybean at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. The concentration of inhibitors to inhibit 50% of ACE activity, $IC_{50}$ was measured on the culture broth of each strain and also on the hot-water extract from 20, 40 and 60 day fermented Doenjang by each strain. As a result, SCB-3 which is isolated from Meju showed the highest ACE inhibitoryactivity on the cultured broth and 40 day matured Doenjang. Then, $IC_{50}$ of SCB-3 was 0.02 mg/ml and 0.26mg/ml respectively. SCB-3 was identified as a Bacillus subtilis based upon its morphological, biochemical and physiological properties. Changes in general components and ACE inhibitory activity of Doenjang fermented by SCB-3 were examined during 90 days. Total acidity of Doenjang was increased from 1.39% to 1.66% and pH was decreased from 6.02 to 5.79 after 90 days fermentation. Total sugar contents were decreased from 16.4% to 15.1% and reducing sugar contents was also decreased from 2.45% to 1.62%. Total nitrogen contents were nearly not changed, but amino nitrogen contents were drastically increased from 196mg% to 541mg%. The numbers of total microorganism were increased to 1.1$\times$$10^{8}$ cells/g after 45 days. Protease activity was increased to 622.1U/g after 75 days. The highest ACE inhibitory activity was shown in 60 day fermented Doenjang and $IC_{50}$ of the hot-water extract was 0.31mg/ml.
