본 연구에서는 잣송이 부산물을 이용하여 인체와 가축에는 무해한 천연 잣송이 부산물 악취저감제를 제조하고 돈분뇨 퇴비화과정에 적용하여 악취 저감효과와 퇴비화에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 잣송이 부산물 악취저감제는 분쇄된 잣송이 부산물, 3종의 미생물(Lactobacillus spp., Alcaligenes spp., Pasteurella spp.) 그리고 무기영양소가 첨가된 당밀수를 혼합하여 수분함량을 55%로 조정한 후 $30^{\circ}C$에서 48시간 배양하여 제조하였다. 실험 처리구는 대조구인 톱밥처리구(T1),톱밥과 3종의 미생물을 혼합한 처리구(T2), 톱밥과 제조된 악취저감제(NDA) 처리구(T3)로 하여 실험실 규모의 반응기 내에서 퇴비화를 진행하면서 실험한 결과 퇴비화 기간 동안 모든 실험구는 최고온도 $55^{\circ}C$ 이상까지 상승하며 병원성 유해미생물들이 사멸되는 퇴비화 적정온도 조건에 부합하였다. 또한 퇴비화 전, 후의 이화학적 성상 변화를 분석한 결과 처리구간 큰 차이가 발견되지 않았으나 제조된 악취저감제를 20%이상 사용시 유기물 분해율이 적어져 퇴비화 과정에서 충분한 온도 상승이 이루어지지 않을 우려가 있을 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 악취저감제 사용 시 퇴비화 과정 중 암모니아 가스 발생에 따른 질소소실이 상대적으로 적어 최종 퇴비물질의 질소함량이 상대적으로 높아짐을 알 수 있었다. 퇴비화 기간 중 암모니아($NH_3$)가스 발생양상을 분석한 결과 황화수소($H_2S$)와 머캅탄($CH_3SH$) 등의 황화합물 가스와는 달리 퇴비화 전 과정을 거쳐 지속적으로 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 퇴비화 반응조에서 발생한 암모니아 가스 농도를 비교할 때 31일 동안 포집된 암모니아의 농도는 T1, T2, T3 각각 12,660 mg/L, 11,598 mg/L, 7,367 mg/L로 잣송이 부산물을 이용하여 제조된 악취저감제를 첨가한 T3에서 암모니아가스의 발생이 확실하게 저감됨을 알 수 있었다. 퇴비화 과정 중 발생하는 머캅탄($CH_3SH$)과 황화수소($H_25$)의 일일발생량과 축적량을 측정한 시험에서 제조된 악취저감제를 첨가한 T3에서는 황화수소 가스와 머캅탄 가스가 크게 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로 미뤄 잣송이 부산물과 미생물을 혼합하여 제조된 악취저감제의 적량 이용은 퇴비화 과정과 퇴비 품질에 영향을 미치지 않으며 퇴비화 과정 중 발생하는 악취물질을 저감시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Experimental studies are conducted to investigate the flame stability and the thermal/fuel NOx formation characteristics of the low calorific value (LCV) coal derived gas fuel. Synthetic LCV fuel gas is produced by mixing carbon monoxide, hydrogen, nitrogen and ammonia on the basis that the thermal input of the syngas fuel into a burner is identical to that of natural gas. The syngas mixture is fed to and burnt with air on flat flame burner. With the variation of the equivalence ratio for specific syngas fuel, flame behaviors are observed to identify the flame instability due to blow-off or flashback and to define stable combustion range. Measurements of NOx content in combustion gas are made for comparing thermal and fuel NOx from the LCV syngas combustion with those of the natural gas one. In addition, the nitrogen dilution of the LCV syngas is preliminarily attempted as a NOx reduction technique, and its effects on thermal and fuel NOx production are discussed.

Concerns for energy conservation, environmental pollution, and the fact that organic wastes account for a major portion of our waste materials, have created the interest of biogas, which usually contains about 60 to 70 percent methane, 30 to 40 percent carbon dioxide, and other gases, including ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans and other noxious gases. Cyclone combustors are used for homing a wide range of fuels such as low calorific value gas, waste water, sludge. coal, etc. The 3-dimensional swirling flow, combustion and emission in a tangential inlet cyclone incinerator under different inlet conditions are simulated using a standard k-s turbulence model and ESCRS (Extended Simple Chemically-Reacting System) model. The commercial code Phoenics Ver.3.4 was used for the present work. The main parameters considered in this work are inlet velocity and air to fuel ratio. The results showed that the change of operating conditions had an influence on the shape and size of recirculation zones, mixture fraction and axial velocity which are important factors for combustion efficiency and emission behavior. The application of this kind of computer program seams to be promising as a potential tool for the optimum design of a cyclone combustor with low emission.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to measure emissions of gases (ammonia ($NH_3$), hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$)), volatile organic compounds (VOC) and odor from two shallow pit pig nursery rooms. Gas and odor reduction practices for swine operations based on the literature were also discussed. Methods: This study was conducted for 60 days at a commercial swine nursery facility which consisted of four identical rooms with mechanical ventilations. Two rooms (room 1 (R1) and room 2 (R2)) with different pig numbers and ventilation rates were used in this study. The pig manure from both the R1 and R2 were characterized. Indoor/outdoor temperatures, ventilation rates/duration, $NH_3$, $H_2S$, $CO_2$, and VOC concentrations of the ventilation air were measured periodically (3-5 times/week). Odor concentrations of the ventilations were measured two times on two days. Three different types of gas and odor reduction practices (diet control, chemical method, and biological method) were discussed in this study. Results: The volatile solids to total solids ratio (VS/TS) and crude protein (CP) value of pig manure indicated the pig manure had high potential for gas and odor emissions. The $NH_3$, $H_2S$, $CO_2$ and VOC concentrations were measured in the ranges of 1.0-13.3, 0.1-5.7, 1600-3000 and 0.0-1.83 ppm, respectively. The $NH_3$ concentrations were found significantly higher than $H_2S$ concentrations for both rooms. The odor concentrations were measured in the range of $2853-4432OU_E/m^3$. There was significant difference in odor concentrations between the two rooms which was due to difference in pig numbers and ventilation duration. The literature studies showed that simultaneous use of dietary control and biofiltration practices will be more effective and environmentally friendly for gas and odor reductions from pig barns. Conclusions: The gas and odor concentrations measured in the ventilation air from the pig rooms indicate an acute need for using gas and odor mitigation technologies. Adopting diet control and biofiltration practices simultaneously could be the best option for mitigating gas and odor emissions from pig barns.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted considerable attention as possible routes to device miniaturization due to their excellent mechanical, thermal, and electronic properties. These properties show great potential for devices such as field emission displays, CNT based transistors, and bio-sensors. The metals such as nickel, cobalt, gold, iron, platinum, and palladium are used as the catalysts for the CNT growth. In this study, diamond-like carbon (DLC) was used for CNT growth as a nonmetallic catalyst layer. DLC films were deposited by a radio frequency (RF) plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF-PECVD) method with a mixture of methane and hydrogen gases. CNTs were synthesized by a hot filament plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (HF-PECVD) method with ammonia (NH3) as a pretreatment gas and acetylene (C2H2) as a carbon source gas. The grown CNTs and the pretreated DLC filmswere observed using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) measurement, and the structure of the grown CNTs was analyzed by high resolution transmission scanning electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Also, using energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) measurement, we confirmed that only the carbon component remained on the substrate.

The growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was carried out using ratio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (rf PECVD) system equipped with dc bias for the directional growth. Acetylene and ammonia gas were used as the carbon source and a catalyst. The relation between gas flow rate and dc bias on the growth of CNTs was investigated. We studied the relation between emission properties and the directionality of CNTs grown under different dc bias voltage.

In this study, we investigated the effects of dietary supplementation (n = 40 pigs/treatment) with bamboo powder (0, 1, 2 and 3%) for 38 days. We evaluated growth performance, blood metabolites, and carcass characteristics of fattening pigs and gas emission and microbial populations in pig manure, to obtain data on pork producers for environmental management. We obtained the following results. First, supplementation with increasing amounts of bamboo powder had a significant (P < 0.05) effect on feed intake, feed efficiency, and glucose contents (except for initial and final body weight, weight gain, carcass characteristics, and blood urea nitrogen). In terms of blood metabolites, glucose and blood urea nitrogen tended to decrease with increasing amounts of bamboo powder. Second, the amounts of ammonia, methane, amine, hydrogen sulfide, and acetic acid were reduced by increasing amounts of bamboo powder when compared with the controls (P < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in pH, propionic acid, iso-butyric acid, butyric acid, iso-valeric acid, and valeric acid among all treatments. The lowest gas emission was observed when 3% bamboo powder was used. Third, supplementation with increasing amounts of bamboo powder tended (P < 0.05) to increase the total number of bacteria, Lactobacillus spp., and yeast, but E. coli, Salmonella spp., and Shigella spp. were not detected in any treatment. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that supplementation with bamboo powder was effective in reducing gas emission and inhibiting pathogen populations in pig manure by lowering the pH of the manure.

본 연구는 산화제인 이산화염소 처리가 계분의 악취 저감에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 실험 1과 2 모두 대조구(증류수 첨가), PC(potassium monopersulfate triple salt, 상업용 살균제 첨가), T2000(2,000 ppm ClO₂ 첨가), T3000(3,000 ppm ClO₂ 첨가)로 총 4개의 처리구로 구성되었다. 실험 1과 2 모두 계분을 함유한 가스백을 밀봉하여 수행되었으며 첨가수준은 동일하나 실험 1에서는 배양 10일 동안의 첨가량을 실험 시작 시 한 번에 투여하여 10일 동안 배양하였고, 실험 2에서는 배양 동안 매일 1 mL씩 투여하여 총 14일 동안 배양하였다. 배양 기간 중 가스를 포집하여 총 가스발생량과 악취를 유발하는 NH₃와 H₂S 가스를 측정하였다. 배양 종료 후에는 가스백을 개봉하여 DM, pH, ammonia-N, VFA, 계분 내 미생물(총 미생물 수, 유산균, 효모, 곰팡이, 대장균군)을 분석하였다. 계분 내 미생물 수는 실험 1에서는 대조구와 비교하여 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 실험 2의 T3000 처리구에서 대장균군의 수가 대조구보다 낮게 검출되었으며(P<0.05) 그 외 미생물 수는 대조구와 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 그러나 실험 1과 2에서 이산화염소 처리구가 대조구보다 pH, ammonia-N, VFA, 총 가스발생량, NH₃와 H₂S 가스의 농도 및 발생량이 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다(P<0.05). 이러한 결과는 이산화염소 처리 시 대장균군의 수는 감소하지 않았으나 대장균군의 비활성화 (실험 1) 또는 대장균군의 감소(실험 2)를 통한 악취 물질 생성 감소 및 산화로 인해 악취가 저감된 것으로 판단된다. 추가적으로, 실험 1과 실험 2의 결과를 종합하였을 때 ammonia-N, VFA, 총 가스발생량, NH₃와 H₂S 가스는 T2000에서 대조구보다 낮게 검출되었으며 T3000과는 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않은 점으로 판단하건대 T2000의 첨가수준도 악취저감에 효과적이라고 사료된다. 또한, 첨가제를 한번에 투여한 실험 1과 매일 투여한 실험 2는 배양 기간이 다르므로 직접 비교할 수는 없으나 투여방법에 따른 차이는 없는 것으로 추정된다.

Background: Garlic and its constituents are reported to have been effective in reducing methane emission and also influence glucose metabolism in body; however, studies in ruminants using garlic leaves are scarce. Garlic leaves contain similar compounds as garlic bulbs, but are discarded in field after garlic bulb harvest. We speculate that feeding garlic leaves might show similar effect as garlic constituents in sheep and could be potential animal feed supplement. Thus, we examined the effect of freeze dried garlic leaves (FDGL) on rumen fermentation, methane emission, plasma glucose kinetics and nitrogen utilization in sheep. Methods: Six sheep were fed Control diet (mixed hay and concentrate (60:40)) or FDGL diet (Control diet supplemented with FDGL at 2.5 g/kg $BW^{0.75}$ of sheep) using a crossover design. Methane gas emission was measured using open-circuit respiratory chamber. Plasma glucose turnover rate was measured using isotope dilution technique of [$U-^{13}C$]glucose. Rumen fluid, feces and urine were collected to measure rumen fermentation characteristics and nitrogen utilization. Result: No significant difference in rumen fermentation parameters was noticed except for rumen ammonia tended to be higher (0.05 < P < 0.1) in FDGL diet. Methane emission per kg dry matter ingested and methane emission per kg dry matter digested were lower (P < 0.05) in FDGL diet. Plasma glucose concentration was similar between diets and plasma glucose turnover rate tended to be higher in FDGL diet (0.05 < P < 0.1). Nitrogen retention was higher (P < 0.05) and microbial nitrogen supply tended to be higher (0.05 < P < 0.1) in FDGL diet. Conclusion: FDGL diet did not impair rumen fermentation, improved nitrogen retention; while absence of significant results in reduction of methane emission, glucose turnover rate and microbial nitrogen supply, further studies at higher dose would be necessary to conclude the merit of FDGL as supplement in ruminant feedstuff.
