BACKGROUND: The number of biomass power plants is increasing around the world and the amount of wastes from power plants is expected to increase. But the bottom ash (BA) is not recycled and has been dumped in landfill. This study was conducted to find out functional groups of BA and adsorption rate of heavy metals on BA. METHODS AND RESULTS: The BA was dried in oven at 105℃ for 24 hours, and characterized by analyzing the chemistry, functional group, and surface area. The adsorption rates of heavy metals on BA were evaluated by different concentration, time, and pH. As a result, the adsorption amount of the heavy metals was high in the order of Zn> Cu> Cd> Ni and the removal rates of Zn, Cu, Cd, and Ni by BA was 49.75, 30.20, 32.46, and 36.10%, respectively. Also, the maximum adsorption capacity of BA was different by the heavy metal in the environmental conditions, and it was suggested that the isotherms for Zn, Ni, Cd, and Cu were adequate to Langmuir model. CONCLUSION(S): It is suggested that it would be effective to remove heavy metals in aqueous solution by using BA from biomass power plants in South Korea.

본 연구는 육아 인력 비용이 출산율에 미치는 영향을 국가별로 비교 분석하였다. 북유럽 국가들의 사례에서는 포괄적인 육아 지원 정책과 육아 인력 비용 지원이 출산율에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 동아시아 국가들에서는 높은 육아 부담과 경제적 압박이 출산율 저하의 주요 원인으로 작용하였다. 개발도상국의 경우, 육아 지원 정책의 효과가 사회경제적 맥락에 따라 상이하게 나타났다. 본 연구는 육아 인력 비용이 출산율에 미치는 영향이 국가별로 다양한 양상을 보이며, 효과적인 육아 지원 정책을 위해서는 각국의 상황에 맞는 맞춤형 접근이 필요함을 시사한다. 향후 육아에 대한 사회적 투자 확대와 함께 돌봄의 가치를 존중하는 문화 확산이 요구된다.

We consider an estimation of discontinuous variance function in nonparametric heteroscedastic random design regression model. We first propose estimators of a change point and jump size in variance function and then construct an estimator of entire variance function. We examine the rates of convergence of these estimators and give results on their asymptotics. Numerical work reveals that the effectiveness of change point analysis in variance function estimation is quite significant.

In this paper, a kind of modified $q$-Bernstein-Schurer operators is introduced. The Korovkin type statistical approximation property of these operators is investigated. Then the rates of statistical convergence of these operators are also studied by means of modulus of continuity and the help of functions of the Lipschitz class. Furthermore, a Voronovskaja type result for these operators is given.

A new decision-feedback equalization technique for a filter bank-based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) data transmission system operating in a frequency selective multipath fading channel is presented in this paper. At the cost of relatively increased computational complexity in comparison to the conventional OFDM systems, the proposed system achieves a better performance in terms of bit error rates. The simulation results confirm the superiority and robustness of our method, particularly, in the low SNR channel environment.

Let (X, Y) be a pair random variables and let f denote the regression function of the response Y on the measurement variable X. Let K(f) denote a derivative of f. The least squares method is used to obtain a tensor spline estimator $\hat{f}$ of f based on a random sample of size n from the distribution of (X, Y). Under some mild conditions, it is shown that $K(\hat{f})$ achieves the optimal rate of convergence for the estimation of K(f) in $L_2$ and $L_{\infty}$ norms.

In this article we continue the study of smooth Picard singular integral operators that started in [2], see there chapters 10-14. This time the foundation of our research is a trigonometric Taylor's formula. We establish the convergence of our operators to the unit operator with rates via Jackson type inequalities engaging the first modulus of continuity. Of interest here is a residual appearing term. Note that our operators are not positive. Our results are pointwise and uniform.

바지락 발생배의 냉동보존을 위한 동해방지제의 효과를 규명하기 위하여4종의 보존액, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethylene glycol, glycerol 및 1,2-propanediol을 사용하여 발생배의 생존율을 조사한 결과로, 생존율의 범위는 0-64.3%였고, 대조구의 생존율은 82.3%을 보였다. 발생배의 냉동보존을 위한 프로그래 동결 과정은 최초 25℃에서 10분 동안 유지하다가 자동 냉동보존 프로그램 장치에 의하여 -12℃까지 분당 -1℃씩 조정하였으며 -35℃까지는 분당 -2℃씩 하강시켜 액체 질소통에 스트로우를 넣어 해동 후 관찰한 결과, 바지락 생존율은 DMSO(dimethyl sulfoxide) 2.0M 실험구에서 64.3%로 가장 좋은 결과를 보였다.

The process of drug discovery and drug development consumes billions of dollars to bring a new drug to the market. Drug development is time consuming and sometimes, the failure rates are high. Thus, the pharmaceutical industry is looking for a better option for new drug discovery. Drug repositioning is a good alternative technology that has demonstrated many advantages over de novo drug development, the most important one being shorter drug development timelines. In the last two decades, drug repositioning has made tremendous impact on drug development technologies. In this review, we focus on the recent advances in drug repositioning technologies and discuss the repositioned drugs used for inflammatory diseases such as sepsis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis.
