Typically, closed production system units are subject to an accumulation of fine suspended solids and dissolved organics (Weeks et at., 1992). Foam fractionation process is believed to be most effective in marine application for solids removal. In present experiment, the performance of foam fractionator for removal of solids, protein, and other dissolved materials was evaluated at different foam overflow heights and air flow rates in a pilot-scale recirculating aquaculture system for culture of Korean rockfish.

This study investigated the removal performance of a foam fractionator under seawater conditions. The foam fractionator was tested using a 3×3×3 factorial design for operating conditions by combining different solids concentrations (SS; 1, 5, and 10 mg·L^-1), surface air velocities (SAV; 1.1, 1.5, and 2.1 cm·sec^-1), and hydraulic residence times (HRT; 1, 3, and 6 min) at 16℃. Performance parameters such as daily solids removal rate and efficiency were measured, and a multi-regression model equation was developed accordingly. The daily solids removal rate and removal efficiency varied with the experimental conditions and ranged from 0.14-2.33 g-solids·m^-3-air·day^-1 and 8.9-96.7 %, respectively. Overall, the daily solids removal rate increased with increasing SS and SAV and decreasing HRT, whereas the removal efficiency increased with increasing SAV and HRT and decreasing SS. The daily solids removal rate (g-solids·m^-3-air·day^-1) of the foam fractionator for SAV (cm·sec^-1), SS (mg·L^-1) and HRT (min) were described by the following multi-regression model: Daily solids removal rate [f(z)]=-0.118+0.422SAV+0.094HRT+0.141SS (r²=0.873).

A numerical study has been carried out to investigate the flow and heat transfer from an aluminum foam heat sink in a confined channel. A uniform heat flux is given at the bottom of the aluminum foam heat sink, which is horizontally placed on the heated surface. The channel walls are assumed to be adiabatic. Cold air is supplied from the top opening of the channel and exhausted to the channel outlet. Comprehensive numerical solutions are acquired to the governing Wavier-Stokes and energy equations, using the Brinkman-Forchheimer extended Darcy model and the local thermal non-equilibrium model f3r the region of porous media. Details of flow and thermal fields are examined over wide ranges of the principal parameters; i.e., the Reynolds number Re, the height of heat sink h/H, porosity $\varepsilon$and pore diameter ratio $R_{H}$.

In recent decades, biofiltration has been widely accepted for the treatment of contaminated air stream containing low concentration of odorous compounds or volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In this study, conventional biofilters packed with flexible synthetic polyurethane (PU) foam carriers were operated to remove toluene from a contaminated air stream. PU foams containing various amounts of pulverized activated carbon (PAC) were synthesized for the biofilter media and tested for toluene removal. Four biofilter columns were operated for 60 days to remove gaseous toluene from a contaminated air stream. During the biofiltration experiment, inlet toluene concentration was in the range of 0-150 ppm and EBRT (i.e., empty bed residence time) was kept at 26-42 seconds. Pressure drop of the biofilter bed was less than 3 mm $H_2O/m$ filter bed. The maximum removal capacity of toluene in the biofilters packed with PU-PAC foam was in the order of column II (PAC=7.08%) > column III (PAC=8.97%) > column I (PAC=4.95%) > column IV (PAC=13.52%), while the complete removal capacity was in the order of column II > column I > column III > column IV. The better biofiltration performance in column II was attributed to higher porosity providing favorable conditions for microbial growth. The results of biodegradation kinetic analysis showed that PU-PAC foam with 7.08% of PAC content had higher maximum removal rate ($V_m$=14.99 g toluene/kg dry material/day) than the other PU-PAC foams. In overall, the performance of biofiltration might be affected by the structure and physicochemical properties of PU foam induced by PAC content.

A production of $\beta-Carotene$was attempted in a fed-batch culture of Blakeslea trispora by controlling both foam and dissolved oxygen in the presence of surfactant, Span 20. Results obtained from the shake flask cultures indicated that a high concentration of dissolved oxygen was needed for both cell growth and $\beta-Carotene$ synthesis, and the optimal concentration of glucose was found to be in the range of 50-100 g/l. In order to maintain the dissolved oxygen concentration level at higher than 50% of air saturation, pure oxygen was automatically sparged into the medium with air. Foam was controlled by bypassing air from the submerged aeration to the headspace in response to the foam that was caused by Span 20. High agitation speed was found to be detrimental to the cell growth due to shear damage, even though it provided sufficient dissolved oxygen. On the other hand, a low aeration speed caused stagnant regions in the fermentor because of improper mixing. Thus, for the fed-batch operation, agitation speed was increased gradually from 300 to 700 rpm to prevent cell damage at the initial stage of fermentation and to give efficient mixing for a viscous culture broth as the culture proceeded. By controlling dissolved oxygen and foam, a high concentration of $\beta-Carotene$otene (1,190 mg/l) was obtained in 6 days of the fed-batch culture of B. trispora with 2.5% of the dry cell weight, which was approximately 5 times higher than that of the batch cultures.

Effect of the air distributor pore size for the removal of aquacultural waste, such as protein, total suspended solids (TSS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), turbidity and total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) from sea water was investigated by using foam separator. With the increase of pore size of air distributor, removal rates and efficiency of protein decreased. Removal rate by commercial air stone was in the range between the removal rates by G2 and G4 sintered glass discs. Within the range of pore size distributor from Gl to G4, the removal efficiency of protein were ranged from 21 to $42\%.$ The changes of removal rates and efficiencies of TSS, COD and turbidity were similar to proteins. TAN was removed by stripping. The pore size of air distributor for a higher overall oxygen mass transfer coefficient and saturation efficiency provided the condition for higher protein removal rate. Also the foam separator could be used as an aerator.

발전소의 냉각수 방류과정에서 대량으로 발생하는 거품의 제거를 위하여 지금까지 소포제와 확산방지 막에 의존해왔지만 유지보수나 비용 등의 문제로 안정적인 구조물에 의한 거품발생 방지 방안 마련이 요구되어왔다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 거품저감 구조물 설계 기술을 확보하기 위하여 공기연행 해석이 가능한 난류 수치 모형을 적용해 보았다. 방류수의 낙하양상에 따라 공기연행률의 차이가 있고 차단벽의 잠김 깊이와 통과 유속에 따라 연행공기의 유출률이 달라지므로 각 Case에 대한 비교를 통해 적정 단면을 설계할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 단면 형상에 따른 공기 연행률과 유출률을 비교하여 거품의 발생 및 유출이 최소가 되는 단면을 찾았으며, 설계 기준은 현장 여건 특히, 바닥 수심고와 월류양상 등에 따라 달라질 수 있으나 수중 방류구 통과 유속은 1 m/s이내가 되도록 하고 차단벽의 잠김 깊이는 최소한 수중 방류구 단면의 수직고 이상은 되어야 함을 알 수 있었다.

최근 한중, 한일 해저터널과 같은 대규모 프로젝트가 구체화되고 있으며, 해저터널에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 해저터널은 일반 지상터널에 비해 열차화재에 따른 대규모 피해가 발생할 수 있으며, 기존의 일반터널 방재설계 이외에도 효율적인 소화방안에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 이에 따라, 본 연구에서는 열차화재를 구난역에서 신속하게 진압하기 위하여, 일반적인 포 소화설비를 개량한 '압축공기포(CAF) 소화설비'를 활용한 실물 화재실험을 7차례 수행하였다. 실험은 가상의 터널에 구난역을 설치하고 KTX 열차의 1 량 규모의 가상열차를 대상으로 실시하였다. 압축공기포를 화원에 직접 분사한 경우에 햅탄(Heptane) 원료 30 L의 가연물을 1분 이내에 소화시켰다. 본 실험 연구를 통하여 해저터널 구난역 열차화재 소화설비에 압축공기 포 소화설비가 적합한지 확인하였으며, 해저터널 외에 일반터널에서도 CAF가 갖는 장점을 활용하여 빠르고 손쉬운 소화가 가능하도록 노즐 각도 및 설치위치 등을 변경하여 소화수와 소화약제를 최소화하기 위하여 추가로 실험 연구를 진행해야 한다고 판단된다.

포말분리 장치를 이용한 해수 중의 단백질 제거 특성을 조사한 결과, 단백질 농도가 높을 수록 또한 폭기량이 높을수록 단백질의 제거속도는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 각각의 제거특성을 통계학적으로 비선형 회귀분석하여 각각의 인자의 변화에 따른 단백질 농도의 변화를 다음의 식으로 나타낼 수 있었다. $$f\;(Co,\;u)=1.5712\times10^{-7}\timesCo^{3.061}\timesu^{1.258}$$ 위 식을 이용하여 유한차분법으로 시뮬레이션을 수행한 결과 실제 포말분리 운전에서 나타난 결과와 상관성이 아주 높은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 경량기포혼합토의 압축성과 강도 특성에 대해 실험을 통하여 연구하였다. 경량기포혼합토는 재료의 경량화와 압축강도의 증가를 위해 해양준설토에 시멘트와 기포로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 목적을 위하여 초기 함수비, 시멘트 함유율, 실트질 준설토의 혼합을, 구속압조건 등의 다양한 조건에서 준비된 공시체로 일축압축시험 및 삼축압축시험을 수행하였다. 경량기포혼합토의 실험결과, 응력-변형거동과 압축강도는 준설토의 초기 함수비보다 시멘트 함유율에 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 초기 함수비, 시멘트 함유율, 기포 함유율을 고려한 정규화계수를 제시하였으며 경량기포혼합토의 압축강도와 정규화 계수와의 유용한 관계를 얻을 수 있었다.
