동절기 엽수 관리는 딸기 재배 농가마다 상이한데 촉성 작형으로 '설향'을 토경 재배할 때 동절기 엽수 조절이 딸기 수량 및 과실 당도에 미치는 영향을 2작기(2013-2014년 및 2014-2015년)에 걸쳐 검토하였다. 12월 상순에서 2월 하순 사이에 엽수를 성엽을 기준으로 6매 및 9매를 남기고 주기적으로 적엽하거나 노화되어 황화된 엽만 제거한 무적엽 처리구를 두어 실험하였다. 2014-2015년 작기에서 엽수를 6매 및 9매를 남기고 적엽한 처리구와 비교하여 무적엽 처리구에서 2월 하순까지의 조기 상품과 수량 및 상품과 총수량이 유의하게 높았다. 가용성 고형물 함량은 동절기 엽수 조절에 따라 1-3월 사이에 처리구간에 유의한 차이를 보였는데, 무적엽 처리구에서 가장 높았으며 수확 전기간 평균 $12^{\circ}Brix$ 내외로 안정적이었다. 따라서, 동절기에는 부족한 일조량과 단일 조건으로 충분한 동화산물의 생산이 어렵기 때문에, 노화엽과 이병엽을 제외하고 최소한으로 적엽하여 관리하는 것이 딸기 과실 수량과 품질을 향상시킬 수 있을 것을 판단된다.

This study was carried out to reduce the problem during distillation process, which separate U, TRU (TRans Uranium) metal electro deposit, Cd and LiCl-KCl eutectic salt generating from LCC (Liquid Cadmium Cathode) electro winning process. The cadmium recovering apparatus was manufactured to separate for each metal using solid-liquid separation method. The apparatus consists of the first sieve for the separation of U and TRU metal electrodeposit, the second sieve for the separation of LiCl-KCl eutectic salt, cadmium collection basket, and a heating furnace. In addition, the size of each sieve is 2 mm to 3 mm. In this experiment, a metal wire was employed to replace TRU metal electrodeposit and U, which exist actually in a LCC crucible. In the solid state, The LiCl-KCl is separated at 340℃ at which the solid and the liquid of the remaining cadmium and LiCl-KCl eutectic salt coexists in each, after the metal wire separated at 500℃. As a result, it seems that it would be beneficial to set the processing condition in the distillation process with the additional treatment process of cadmium and LiCl-KCl eutectic salt.

We propose an effective methodology using electromechanical impedance characteristics for estimating the remaining tensile force of tendons and simultaneously detecting damages of the anchorage blocks. Once one piezoelectric patch is attached on the anchor head and the other is bonded on the bearing plate, impedance responses are measured through these two patches under varying tensile force conditions. Then statistical indices are calculated from the impedances, and two types of relationship curves between the tensile force and the statistical index (TE Curve) and between statistical indices of two patches (SR Curve) are established. Those are considered as database for monitoring both the tendon and the anchorage system. If damage exists on the bearing plate, the statistical index of patch on the bearing plate would be out of bounds of the SR curve and damage can be detected. A change in the statistical index by damage is calibrated with the SR curve, and the tensile force can be estimated with the corrected index and the TE Curve. For validation of the developed methodology, experimental studies are performed on the scaled model of an anchorage system that is simplified only with 3 solid wedges, a 3-hole anchor head, and a bearing plate. Then, the methodology is applied to a real scale anchorage system that has 19 strands, wedges, an anchor head, a bearing plate, and a steel duct. It is observed that the proposed scheme gives quite accurate estimation of the remaining tensile forces. Therefore, this methodology has great potential for practical use to evaluate the remaining tensile forces and damage status in the post-tensioned structural members.

Hydride reorientation behaviors of PWR cladding tubes under typical interim dry storage conditions were investigated with the use of as-received 250 and 485ppm hydrogen-charged Zr-Nb alloy cladding tubes. In order to evaluate the effect of typical cool-down processes on the radial hydride precipitation, two terminal heat-up temperatures of 300 and $400^{\circ}C$, as well as two terminal cool-down temperatures of 200 and $300^{\circ}C$, were considered. In addition, two cooling rates of 2.5 and $8.0^{\circ}C/min$ during the cool-down processes were taken into account along with zero stress or a tensile hoop stress of 150MPa. It was found that the 250ppm hydrogen-charged specimen experiencing the higher terminal heat-up temperature and the lower terminal cool-down temperature generated the highest number of radial hydrides during the cool-down process under 150MPa hoop tensile stress, which may be explained by terminal solid hydrogen solubilities for precipitation, and dissolution and remaining circumferential hydrides at the terminal heat-up temperatures. In addition, the slower cool-down rate generates the larger number of radial hydrides due to a cooling rate-dependent, longer residence time at a relatively high temperature that can accelerate the radial hydride nucleation and growth.

고체 추진제 연소불안정에 관한 해석은 준-정상 1차원 해석인 QSHOD(Quasi-Steady Homo-geneous One-Dimension)에 의하여 단순화된 지배방정식을 이용하여 응축영역을 해석하는 것이 일반적이다. 이때 외부교란에 대한 기체영역과 표면반응 영역의 응답은 화학반응이 발생하지 않는 고체영역의 응답에 비하여 매우 빠르므로 준-정상적인 거동을 한다. 본 연구에서는 복사열전달에 의한 열속(heat flux)이 고체 추진제의 표면에 존재하며 이 중의 일부가 고체영역으로 흡수될 때 표면에서의 선형교란을 고려한 ZN(Zeldovich-Novozhilov) 방법을 이용하여 연소불안정 현상을 이론적으로 해석하여 연소불안정 현상을 설명할 수 있는 연소 응답함수를 구하였다. 응답함수는 T-burner의 실험결과를 예측할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

A two-step process was investigated for pretreatment and fractionation of rice straw. The two-step fractionation process involves first, soaking rice straw in aqueous ammonia (SAA) in a batch reactor to recover lignin-rich hydrolysate. This is followed by a second-step treatment in a fixed-bed flow-through column reactor to recover xylo-oligomer-rich hydrolysate. The remaining glucan-rich solid cake is then subjected to an enzymatic process. In the first variant, SAA treatment in the first step dissolves lignin at moderate temperature (60 and $80^{\circ}C$), while in the second step, hot-water treatment is used for xylan removal at higher temperatures ($150{\sim}210^{\circ}C$). Under optimal conditions ($190^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature, 30 min reaction time, 5.0 ml/min flow rate, and 2.3 MPa reaction pressure), the SAA-hot-water fractionation removed 79.2% of the lignin and 63.4% of the xylan. In the second variant, SAA was followed by treatment with dilute sulfuric acid. With this process, optimal treatment conditions for effective fractionation of xylo-oligomer were found to be $80^{\circ}C$, 12 h reaction time, solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:12 in the first step; and 5.0 ml $H_2SO_4/min$, $170^{\circ}C$, and 2.3 MPa in the second step. After this two-step fractionation process, 85.4% lignin removal and 78.9% xylan removal (26.8% xylan recovery) were achieved. Use of the optimized second variant of the two-step fractionation process (SAA and $H_2SO_4$) resulted in enhanced enzymatic digestibility of the treated solid (99% glucan digestibility) with 15 FPU (filter paper unit) of CTec2 (cellulase)/g-glucan of enzyme loading, which was higher than 92% in the two-step fractionation process (SAA and hot-water).

Electrorefining is a key step in pyroprocessing. The electrorefining process is generally composed of two recovery steps - the deposit of uranium onto a solid cathode and the recovery of the remaining uranium and TRU elements simultaneously by a liquid cadmium cathode. The solid cathode processing is necessary to separate the salt from the cathode since the uranium deposit in a solid cathode contains electrolyte salt. Distillation process was employed for the cathode processing. It is very important to increase the throughput of the salt separation system due to the high uranium content of spent nuclear fuel and high salt fraction of uranium dendrites. In this study, a mesh-covered crucible was investigated for the sat distillation of electrorefiner uranium deposits. A liquid salt separation step and a vacuum distillation step were combined for salt separation. The adhered salt in uranium deposits was efficiently removed in the mesh-covered crucible. The salt distiller was operated simply since repeated cooling - heating step was not necessary for the change of the crucible. The operation time could be reduced by the use of the mesh-covered crucible and the combined operation of the two steps. A method to preserve a vacuum level was proposed by double O-rings during the operation of the distiller with the mesh-covered crucible. After the salt distillation, the salt content was measured and was below 0.1wt% after the salt distillation. The residual salt after the salt distillation can be removed further during melting of uranium metal.

본 연구에서는 국내 우리텍사의 PVDF계 중공사 막을 4 bundle 씩 묶어 모듈을 제작하였으며, 처리용량은 10 ton/day로 설정하여 반응조 내 부유고형물(suspended solid; SS) 의 농도구배가 없도록 하부로부터 간헐 폭기하는 방식을 선택하여 부산 수영하수처리장에 pilot plant를 설치하였다. Pilot plant는 정상 운전을 위하여 하수처리장의 폭기조로부터 유입된 mixed liquor suspended solid (MLSS) 1,000 ppm 정도의 원수를 시험 여과하고, 세척수로 2회 세척, 10% 에탄올 용액으로 1회 세척, 그리고 NaOCl 5% 용액으로 1회 세척 과정을 거치고 마지막으로 세척수로 최종 세척한 후 운전하였다. 결과적으로, 화학세정 후 membrane bioreactor (MBR) 내의 잔류수를 원수로 운전한 결과 SS 제거효율이 99.9% 이상을 보이고 있는 결과와 폭기조 유입수를 원수로 운전하여, 여과 수량은 초기 조건에 비해 16% 감소, suction pressure 는 30% 상승하고 있음을 확인한 결과를 연속 운전 조건으로 설정하였다. 연속 운전한 결과, 유입수 mixed liquor suspended solid (MLSS)가 1,900 mg/L의 조건에서 SS 제거 효율은 99.99% 이었으며 여과수량은 $42{\sim}52L/m^2$ h, suction pressure가 16~20 cmHg로 안정 상태로 운전되고 있음을 확인하였다. 다만, 여과수 저장조의 유출구와 유입구에서의 SS 제거 효율에 영향을 미치는 조류의 발생 억제에 관한 방법이 재고되어 여과수의 재이용 범위를 설정할 필요가 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Fuel characteristics of sewage sludge as required for the fluidized bed incinerators have been evaluated. Sewage sludge is basically a solid fuel with high percentage of moisture. Moisture content of the fuel directly affects the heating value of the fuel and the exhaust gas composition. When the sludge of transported into the incinerator, sludge cake is subject to the mixing, break-up and heat-up. Fluidization process would enhance these physical processes. The sludge fuel could then undergo the moisture evaporation and devolatilization process. Subsequent oxidation of volatiles as well as the remaining char would then follow. Sludge samples are characterized with high percentage of volatiles out of total combustibles. Quantitative understanding of above listed subprocesses would certainly help in the utilization of fluidized bed incinerators. A limited set of fuel characterization tests including calorimetric analysis, proximate analysis, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis were conducted for the selected sludge samples. The measurement reasults of sludge samples were reported along with some published data. Limited experience in the actual incinerator plant is also presented.

An experimental study was performed to establish the validity of an on-line state estimator for a semibatch MMA-MA copolymerization reactor by using on-line densitometer and viscometer under two different operating conditions; one without additional solvent feed and the other with solvent fed additionally. A conventional extended Kalman filter (EKF) was used as the state estimator and the experiment was conducted for the purpose of application to the control of copolymer properties. Further analysis was made by using off-line measurement data for the mole fraction of MMA in the remaining monomers and the solid content. It was found that the EKF could provide a good estimate for the states of the copolymerzation system ...
