A photovoltaic powered ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis system was tested with a number of natural groundwaters in Australia. The objective of this study was to compare system performance at six remote field locations by assessing the impact of water composition and fluctuating energy on inorganic contaminant removal using a BW30-4040 membrane. Solar irradiance directly affected pressure and flow. Groundwater characteristics (including TDS, salts, heavy metals, and pH), impacted other performance parameters such as retention, specific energy consumption and flux. During continual system operation, retention of ions such as $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ was high (> 95%) with each groundwater which can be attributed to steric exclusion. The retention of smaller ions such as $NO_3{^-}$ was affected by weather conditions and groundwater composition, as convection/diffusion dominate retention. When solar irradiance was insufficient or fluctuations too great for system operation, performance deteriorated and retention dropped significantly (< 30% at Ti Tree). Groundwater pH affected flux and retention of smaller ions ($NO_3{^-}$ and $F^-$) because charge repulsion increases with pH. The results highlight variations in system performance (ion retention, flux, specific energy consumption) with real solar irradiance, groundwater composition, and pH conditions.

The objective of this research was to evaluate the growth performance, the apparent ileal digestibility of nitrogen and energy, the retention of nutrients and the apparent metabolizable energy corrected to zero nitrogen retention (AMEn) in broiler chickens supplemented with increasing doses of a worm leachate (WL) as a source of humic substances (HS) in the drinking water. In Exp. 1, 140 male broilers were penned individually and assigned to four WL levels (0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) mixed in the drinking water from 21 to 49 days of age. Water was offered in plastic bottles tied to the cage. In Exp. 2, 600 male broilers from 21 to 49 days of age housed in floor pens were assigned to three levels of WL (0%, 10%, and 20%) mixed in the drinking water. The WL was mixed with tap water in plastic containers connected by plastic tubing to bell drinkers. The results of both experiments were subjected to analysis of variance and polynomial contrasts. In Exp. 1, the daily water consumption was similar among treatments but the consumption of humic, fulvic, and total humic acids increased linearly (p<0.01) as the WL increased in the drinking water. The feed conversion (p<0.01) and the ileal digestibility of energy, the excretion of dry matter and energy, the retention of dry matter, ash and nitrogen and the AMEn showed quadratic responses (p<0.05) relative to the WL levels in drinking water. In Exp. 2, the increasing level of WL in the drinking water had quadratic effects on the final body weight, daily weight gain and feed conversion ratio (p<0.05). The addition of WL as a source of HS in the drinking water had beneficial effects on the growth performance, ileal digestibility of energy, the retention of nutrients as well on the AMEn in broiler chickens; the best results were observed when the WL was mixed at levels of 20% to 30% in the drinking water.

불포화토의 함수특성은 구속효과 및 이력현상에 따라 변화한다. 이로 인하여 불포화 지층의 유효응력을 정의할 때, 모관흡수력이 기여하는 효과가 깊이에 따라 변화하거나 침투 및 증발과정에서 상이하게 나타난다. 불포화토의 유효응력은 흡수응력 특성곡선에 근거하여 일반화 할 수 있다. 이러한 일반화를 위해서, 구속응력과 함수특성곡선의 관계를 찾는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 구속응력을 가한 상태에서 압력판 추출시험을 수행하고 건조 및 습윤과정에서 나타나는 함수특성의 이력현상을 획득하였다. 그리고 각 이력과정에 대한 유효 체적함수비와 모관흡수력 관계를 구할 수 있었다. 이로부터 모관흡수력에 따른 흡수응력 특성곡선을 정의할 수 있었다. 또한 삼축시험시 구한 불포화 전단강도로부터, 흡수응력과 유효응력을 모관흡수력으로부터 구할 수 있었다. 함수특성에 근거한 유효응력 파괴규준은 유일하게 나타났으며 포화시 파괴포락선과 일치하였다. 삼축시험으로부터 구한 흡수응력은 대표 함수특성곡선으로부터 구한 것과 유사하게 나타났다. 따라서 각 이력과정에서 구속효과에 대하여 함수특성곡선이 유일하게 정의될 수 있음을 입증하였다.

The effects of changing aqueous solution properties by nonionic surfactants on wetting behavior and water retention properies of hydrophobic PET (polyethylene terephthalate) fabric were reported. The aqueous solution properties were diversified by mixing and diluting two nonionic surfactants, i.e., sorbitan monolaurate (Span 20) and polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween 20). The surface wetting properties ($cos{\theta}$) of PET fabric were greatly improved by adding $10^{-1}g/dl$ Tween 20 and further improved by mixing Span 20 to the system. The water retention properties (W) of PET fabric were also greatly increased by addition of $10^{-1}g/dl$ Tween 20. In diluted surfactant systems, the $cos{\theta}'s$ were increased with decreasing surface tension of aqueous liquids. The ratios of aqueous liquid retained in the pore structure to liquid retention capacity (W/H) were also increased with decreasing surface tension, however, W/H values were dramatically increased right after critical micelle concentration (cmc). The existence of micelles was important for the retention of aqueous liquids in the fabric. The critical surface tension of PET fabric used was found to be 28.7dyne/cm.

불포화토양내 물의 흐름과 유기오염물질의 이동현상을 예측하기 위해서는 불포화토양의 토양수분곡선을 구하는 것이 필수적이다. 입자크기분포로부터 토양수분곡선을 직접 구하는 물리경험적 방법이 많은 연구자들에 의해 제안되고 적용되어왔다. 이 방법은 공극크기분포가 직접적으로 입자크기분포와 상호 연관되어있다는 개념을 이용한 것으로, 입자크기분포곡선을 산정하는 방법이 토양수분곡선추정에 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 Arya-Paris 모형을 이용한 토양수분곡선 추정이 어떠한 입자크기분포모형을 선택하는가에 따라 영향을 받는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 1∼4의 추정변수를 갖는 4개의 입자분포곡선 모형을 사용한 결과 단지 1개의 추정변수를 갖는 Jaky모형이 더 많은 추정변수를 가진 모형보다 토양수분곡선을 잘 예측하였다. Jaky모형의 우월한 예측력은 아마도 현장토양이 가지는 구조적 특성 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 오염이 심한 유수지를 지속적으로 양호한 수질로 유지하기 위한 효율적 방안을 모색하고자 수행되었다. 유수지 수질을 양호하게 유지하려면 외부로부터 유입되는 비점오염원의 유입 차단이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이의 방안으로 다공성 슬래그의 활용을 제안하였다. 다공성 슬래그 넷트를 유수지에 설치하는 경우의 수질 변화를 알아보기 위하여 오염물질의 제거 정도를 실험하였다. 그 결과 접촉 시간과 인 제거 효율 간에는 높은 상관관계($r^2=0.9765$)를 나타내어 접촉시간이 처리효율에 미치는 중요한 인자임을 알 수 있었으며, 인과 부유물질은 조제 시료, 생물학적 처리수, 하수 모두 다공성 슬래그 충전상을 통과하면서 높은 효율로 제거됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 이로부터 비점오염원의 유입 방지를 위하여 유수지 수중 내부와 외부 호안에 다공성 슬래그 충전상의 설치방안을 제안하였다.

본 연구에서는 백금족 금속-아세틸아세톤 킬레이트들의 역상 액체 크로마토그래피에서 용리 거동을 조사하여 머무름 메카니즘을 연구하고 이들의 최적 분리 조건을 알아내었다. 중성의 백금족 금속-아세틸아세톤 킬레이트들의 머무름에 소용매성 효과가 크게 영향을 준다는 것을 알았다. 또한, 백금족 금속-아세틸아세톤 킬레이트들의 기하학적 구조가 머무름에 많은 영향을 준다는 것을 알았다. 팔면체 구조인 $Rh(acac)_3$, $Ir(acac)_3$보다는 평면 사각형 구조인 $Pd(acac)_2$, $Pt(acac)_2$가 비극성 정지상과 상호 작용할 수 있는 표면적이 더 크므로 더 늦게 용리된다. 컬럼의 온도를 $25{\sim}45^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키면서 각 이동상 조성에서 van't Hoff plot를 구한 결과 온도에 따른 머무름 메카니즘은 일정함을 알 수 있었다. 이동상의 조성변화에 따라 용질의 머무름 메카니즘이 변화하는가를 알아보기 위하여 엔탈피-엔트로피 상쇄 현상을 조사하였다. 메탄올-물 용매의 조성이 40~70%로 변할 때 팔면체 구조인 $Rh(acac)_3$, $Ir(acac)_3$와 평면 사각형 구조인 $Pd(acac)_2$, $Pt(acac)_2$는 각각 엔탈피-엔트로피 상쇄 현상이 관찰되었으므로 머무름 메카니즘이 킬레이트의 구조에 따라 일정함을 알았다. 아세토니트릴-물 용매 조성이 30~60%로 변할 때는 엔탈피-엔트로피 상쇄 형상이 관찰되지 않았으므로 머무름 메카니즘이 복잡함을 알았다. 백금족 금속-아세틸아세톤 킬레이트들의 최적 분리 조건은 40% 메탄올, polymeric C18 컬럼, $45^{\circ}C$이다.

Mechanical characteristics of bottom ash produced in coal-fired power plant are investigated to utilize as light-weight fill materials. Triaxial compression test, water retention test, and unsaturated direct shear test were conducted for weathered soil (WS), reclaimed bottom ash (RBA), and screened bottom ash (BA). RBA had larger frictional angle and lower effective cohesion than those of WS. Water retention charactersitics of RBA and BA existed within distributions of soil-water characteristic curves for domestic weathered soils. Unsaturated shear strength of RBA was similar to that of WS at matric suctions of 50 kPa and 100 kPa. As a conclusion, bottom ash can be used as fill materials to replace the conventional construction materials by.

This experiment was carried out to improve the quality of high absorbent polymer which has excellent absorptivity and water retention compared to pulp and absorption sheet, through absorption characteristics-absorptive power, water retention, absorption rate, gel strength, pH, particle size, and moisture content. - of six polymers, namely, anionic polyacrylamide, cationic polyacrylamide, polyacrylic, acid polyvinyle alcohol 500, and 1500, and a-cellulose. and to examine the possibility of substitution of amide groups for carboxyl group and/or hydroxyl group which were commercial high absorbent polymer by comparing the absorption characteristics of the polymers. Polyacrylamide has high absorptive power and water retention, but has low gel strength and poor absorption rate. The rest of polymers were similiar to ${\alpha}$-cellulose in every respect. Thus, polyacrylamides could be replaced with polyacrylic acid and polyvinyl alcohol which are presently a high absorbent polymers. In comparing the absorption characteristics and the absorptive power of the polymers-anionic polyacrylamide, cationic polyacrylamide, polyacrylic acid, polyvinyle alcohol. a-cellulose-the absorptive power was in inverse proportion to the gel strength and absorption rates, affected by the particle size and pH change.
