The flow fields inside a molten Zn pot of continuous hot-chip galvanizing process were investigated experimentally. With varying several parameters including the strip speed Vs, flow rate Q of induction heater. scrapper location and baffle configuration, instantaneous velocity fields were measured using a PIV velocity field measurement technique. Inside the strip region, counter-clockwise rotating flow is dominant. The general flow pattern inside the strip region is nearly not influenced by the strip speed Vs, flow rate Q and the scrapper location. In the exit region, the flow separated from the moving strip due to the existence of a stabilizing roll ascends to the free surface, for the cases of no scrapper and scrapper detached form the roll. On the other hand, the ascending flow to the free surface is decreased, as the flow rate Q of induction heater increases. By installing a baffle around the uprising strip, the flow moving up to the stabilizing roll decreases. In addition, B-type baffle is better than A-type baffle in reducing speed of flow around the stabilizing rolls. However, the flow ascended to the free surface is largely influenced by changing the flow rate Q, and the scrapper location, irrespective of the baffle type.

Objectives: This on-site study was performed to evaluate the reduction efficiency of an air cleaner on particulate matters and biological agents in a swine facility. Materials and Methods: Particulate matter was measured using a real-time monitoring recorder and biological agents were sampled with a one-stage impactor and then analyzed based on the microbial culture method. An experimental process for the reduction effect on airborne pollutants through air cleaner operation consisted of three conditions: no treatment, wet scrapper by water spray and wet scrapper by disinfectant spray. Results: Geometric mean levels of particulate matter(TSP, $PM_{10}$, $PM_{2.5}$ and $PM_1$) were presented at $1,608{\mu}g/m^3$, $1,373.8{\mu}g/m^3$, $401.8{\mu}g/m^3$ and $144.5{\mu}g/m^3$ for no treatment; $1,503{\mu}g/m^3$, $1,017{\mu}g/m^3$, $159.4{\mu}g/m^3$ and $69.8{\mu}g/m^3$ for wet scrapper by water spray; and $1,222.17{\mu}g/m^3$, $477.17{\mu}g/m^3$, $33.2{\mu}g/m^3$ and $11.1{\mu}g/m^3$ for wet scrapper by disinfectant spray, respectively. In the case of biological agents, the geometric averaged concentrations of total airborne bacteria and fungi were as follows: $45,371cfu/m^3$ and $13,474cfu/m^3$ for no treatment, $43,286cfu/m^3$ and $8,610cfu/m^3$ for wet scrapper by water spray, and $2,440cfu/m^3$ and 1,867 cfu/ for wet scrapper by disinfectant spray, respectively. Regardless of particulate matter and biological agent, the highest concentrations were found for no treatment, while the lowest concentrations were found with wet scrapper by disinfectant spray. Conclusions: Based on the results obtained from this on-site evaluation, there was a significant reduction effect on particulate matter and biological agents through the application of an air cleaner in this study.

본 연구는 축산분뇨 퇴비화시 부자재인 톱밥을 석탄회로 대체하기 위하여 수행하였다. 축산분뇨와 톱밥의 혼합비율을 부피비 1:1로 고정하고 이때 톱밥을 어느 정도 석탄회로 대체 가능한지를 조사하였다. 각 혼합비율에 대해 조사된 톱밥과 석탄회의 혼합비율은 부피비로 40:10, 35:15, 30:20, 25:25, 20:30, 15:35, 10:40이었다. 축사에서 스크레퍼 방식과 슬러리 방식에 의하여 배출되는 축산분뇨, 톱밥과 석탄회를 앞에서와 같은 혼합비율로 섞은 부자재를 부피비 1:1로 혼합하여 퇴비화하면서 온도, 수분, pH, 유기물, 질소 및 유기물/질소 비 등을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 온도의 변화는 슬러리 방식보다 스크레파 방식에서 톱밥비율이 높을수록 빨리 최고온도($63.5^{\circ}C$)에 도달하였다. 수분 함량의 변화는 스크레파 방식 및 슬러리 방식 공히 톱밥과 석탄회를 부피비로 동일비율(1:1) 혼합하였을 때 42 %와 54 % 범위의 수분함량으로 발효에 비교적 좋은 조건을 유지하였다. pH는 분뇨, 톱밥, 석탄회 비율 50 : 25 : 25 투입시 전체적으로 pH 7~10으로 약알카리성 내지 알카리성이었다. 유기물함량은 톱밥 혼입량이 석탄회보다 많을수록 증가되나 퇴비화가 진행됨에 따라 별다른 변화는 보이지 않았다. 질소함량은 톱밥 혼입량 증가에 따라 늘어났으나, 발효과정 진행에 따라서는 일정한 경향을 나타내지 않았다. 유기물/질소 비는 톱밥 혼입량이 증가할수록 증가하였지만, 발효과정 중 큰 변화는 볼 수 없었다.

As current international guideline and IMO regulation give severe restrictions for ships to manage ballast water to reduce unintentional organism transfers, several ballast water treatment systems recently have been being developed together with filtration. That is because discharging ballast water from ships causes many pollutions by foreign biological invasive species. The primary treatment system being considered in this study was based on fine screen filtration technology applied to ballast water filter in ballast tank in order to reduce the load of ballast water treatment system. New ballast water filtration system was invented and analysed. The structural stress and strain analysis for ballast filtration systems which are current and invented filters were carried out using UGS and Ansys. The results showed that the structure of current filtering module was not designed to meet the requirement of sea water filtration during ballasting operation. The studies also showed that the invented design of filtration system equipped with back washing and automatic scrapper for eliminating cake of bio-species might be a potentially effective technology for ballast water management of ship's ballast tank.

Benthic macro invertebrate communities were collected at six different sampling sites in the Musucheon stream in Korea from July 2006 to July 2007, and ecological exergy values were calculated based on five different functional feeding groups (collector-gatherer, collector-filterer, predator, scrapper, and shredder) of benthic macro invertebrates. Each sampling site was categorized to three stream types (perennial, intermittent and drought) based on the water flow condition. Exergy values were low at all study sites right after a heavy rain and relatively higher in the perennial stream type than in the intermittent or the drought stream type. Self-Organizing Map (SOM), unsupervised artificial neural network, was implemented to pattern spatial and temporal dynamics of ecological exergy of the study sites. SOM classified samples into four clusters. The classification reflected the effects of floods and droughts on benthic macroinvertebrate communities, and was mainly related with the stream types of the sampling sites. Exergy values of each functional feeding group also responded differently according to the different stream types. Finally, the results showed that exergy is an effective ecological indicator, and patterning changes of exergy using SOM is an effective way to evaluate target ecosystems.

Anaerobic digestion is one of the well-known methods for biological treatment handling of concentrated organic matter such as swine $wastewater.^{1)} The anaerobic digestion can reduce organic loading but also hydrolyze non-biodegradable organic $matter.^{2)}$ The feces from the scrapper-type barn are usually collected to make compost and the urine is discarded with swine-slurry wastewater by ocean-dumping or treated by biological methods. The lagoon, aerobic digestion, anaerobic digestion, SBR, $A^{2}/O$, and UCT have been applied for treating swine $wastewater.^{3)} In this study, as a result of the analysis of swine wastewater, the total and soluble chemical oxygen demand was 130g/L and 60g/L, respectively. And the volatile fatty acid as chemical oxygen demand equivalent was 45g/L, which was 75% of soluble chemical oxygen demand. Before everything else, ammonia nitrogen concentration was 6.5 g/L. From biochemical acidogenic potential test, it was concluded that the enhanced acidification process to manage swine waste should be operated in the ammonia nitrogen concentration of less than 1.2 g/L. In the result of seeding ratio experiments with artificial $wastewater^{4)}, the lag period of acidogens was taken the long time because of the inhibition by the $ammonia^{5)}$, however no difference of period by the seeding ratio was not shown. The Haldane-based biokinetics were also evaluated using a method of fourth order Runge-Kutta $approximation.^{6,7)}$ The nonlinear least squares (NLLS) method with a 95% confidence interval was also used. The ranges of maximum microbial growth rate, ${/mu_{max}}$, and half saturation coefficient, $K_{s}$, for acidogenesis of various seeding ratio with artificial wastewater were 6.1 ~ 12.6 $d^{-1}$ and 45,000 ~ 53,500 mg glucose/L, respectively. Also, the methanogenic microbial yield coefficient, Y, and microbial decay rate coefficient, $k_{d}$, and inhibition substrate concentration, $K_{si}$, for the reactors were determined to be 0.32 ~ 0.465 ${/mu}g$/mg glucose; 0.42 ~ 1.01 $d^{-1}$ and 51,500 ~ 55,600 mg glucose/L, respectively.

본 조사는 대전광역시 양축농가의 축사 형태, 그리고 축분 및 축사주위의 악취물질의 농도를 측정하기 위하여 실시하였다. 한우사는 조사 농가 중 대부분(94.5%)이 톱밥 또는 왕겨를 축사 바닥에 깔아주고 있어서 분뇨가 축사 밖으로 유출되지 않았다. 돈사의 경우는 대부분이 슬러리식을 채택하고 있었으나 아직도 일부 농가는 바닥 충전재를 사용하고 있었으며 축사로부터의 오물 유출가능성은 없다고 판단되었다. 계사의 경우, 육계사는 전부 바닥 깔짚을 사용하고 있었고 산란계사는 스크레퍼를 이용하고 있었으며, 축사로부터의 오염물의 유출 가능성은 없다고 판단된다. 사슴사는 12개소 중 3개 소는 바닥 충전재를 사용하고 있었으며, 10개소는 재래식으로 관리되고 있었으며, 지붕설치 여부와 관련하여 볼 때 7개소는 우천 시 오물의 유출이 우려된다고 하겠다. 생분의 암모니아, 아민류 및 휘발성지방산 함량은 부숙분에 비하여 전반적으로 낮았으며, 함황 물질인 황화수소, 메틸메르캅탄 및 에틸메르 캅탄의 농도는 부숙분에 비하여 높게 나타났다. 축사내의 악취성분은 돈사와 육계사에서 암모니아와 황화수소가 미량 검출되었을 뿐 다른 성분은 검출한계 이하였다. 축사 외 부지경계선에서의 악취성분은 검출되지 않았다. 그리고 악취감 소용 사료첨가제에 대한 축산농가의 반응은 전반적으로 부정적으로 나타났다. 위와 같은 사실로 미루어 볼 때 축산 시설로부터의 오염물질 유출은 우려할 수준은 아니라고 생각되지만, 조사 시점이 동절기인 것을 감안하면 좀 더 세심한 배려가 있어야 할 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 악취저감 사료첨가제에 대해서는 제조기준을 설정할 필요가 있다고 생각된다.
