Magnesium hydroxide-melamine core-shell particles were prepared through the coating of melamine monomer on the surface of magnesium hydroxide in the presence of phosphoric acid. The melamine monomer was dissolved in hot water but recrystallized on the surface of magnesium hydroxide by quenching to room temperature in the presence of phosphoric acid. The core-shell particle was applied to low-density polyethylene/ ethylene vinyl acetate (LDPE/EVA) resin by melt-compounding at $180^{\circ}C$ as flame retardant. The effect of magnesium hydroxide and melamine content has been studied on the flame retardancy of the core-shell particles in LDPE/EVA resin according to the preparation process and purity of magnesium hydroxide. Magnesium hydroxide prepared with sodium hydroxide rather than with ammonia solution revealed higher flame retardancy in core-shell particles with LDPE/EVA resin. At 50 wt% loading of flame retardant, core-shell particles revealed higher flame retardancy compared to that of the exclusive magnesium hydroxide in LDPE/EVA composite, and it was possible to satisfy the V0 grade in the UL-94 vertical test. The synergistic flame retardant effect of magnesium hydroxide and melamine core-shell particles was explained as being due to the endothermic decomposition of magnesium hydroxide and melamine, which was followed by the evolution of water from the magnesium hydroxide and porous char formation due to reactive nitrogen compounds, and carbon dioxide generated from melamine.

저속시험 및 약 11.4m/s까지의 고속시험을 받는 다방향 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합적층판의 층간파괴거동에 대해 양외팔보(DCB)시험편을 이용하여 연구했다. 모드I의 하중을 1.0m/s이상으로 가한 결과 하중-시간곡선에 동적효과가 발생하여, 시험속도에 비례하는 단순관게식으로 예상되는 것보다 더 큰 균열속도가 나타났다. 시험편 개구변위와 균열길이만을 사용하는 수정된 선형보해석식은 동적인 층간파괴에너지$G_{IC}$를 평가하기 위해 유효했다. 또한 굽힘탕선계수의 실측값은 시험속도의 증가에 다라 증가했는데, 이를 $G_{IC}$의 평가시에 고려했다. 시험속도가 1.0m/s까지 증가할 때, 균열개시 및 정지시의 $G_{IC}$값은 변화가 없었으나, 11.4m/s의 속도에서 최대 GIC값은 섬유가교효과의 증대로 크게 증가했다. 또한 초기균열길이가 길수록 고속시의 최대GIC값은 저하했다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to experimentally investigate the structural safety of and identify critical locations in a front-end loader under impact loads. Methods: Impact and static tests were conducted on a commonly used front-end loader mounted on a tractor. In the impact test, the bucket of the front-end loader with maximum live load was raised to its maximum lift height and was allowed to free fall to a height of 500 mm above the ground where it was stopped abruptly. For the static test, the bucket with maximum live load was raised and held at the maximum lift height, median height, and a height of 500 mm from the ground. Strain gages were attached at twenty-three main locations on the front-end loader, and the maximum stresses and strains were measured during respective impact and static tests. Results: Stresses and strains at the same location on the loader were higher in the impact test than in the static test, for most of measurement locations. This indicated that the front-end loader was put under a severe environment during impact loading. The safety factors for stresses were higher than 1.0 at all locations during impact and static tests. Conclusions: Since the lowest safety factor was higher than 1.0, the front-end loader was considered as structurally safe under impact loads. However, caution must be exercised at the locations having relatively low safety factors because failure may occur at these locations under high impact loads. These important design locations were identified to be the bucket link elements and the connection elements between the tractor frame and front-end loader. A robust design is required for these elements because of their high failure probability caused by excessive impact stress.

This research examined the treatment efficiency and methane production rate in treating slurry-type swine waste using UASB (upflow anaerobic sludge blanket) reactor. The UASB reactor was operated at an organics volumetric loading rate (VLR) of $2.6-15.7kgCOD/m^3/day$. A stepwise increase of the VLR resulted in a temporary deterioration in the COD removal rate in UASB reactor but recovered quickly. The COD removal rate were 65-70% for VLR up to $5 kgCOD/m^3/day$. When organics VLR was $10kgCOD/m^3/day$, the COD removal rate decreased sharply and there was loss of 17.537g of the seeding biomass due to sludge washout. This result indicated that the UASB system cannot be adapted to more than $10kgCOD/m^3/day$ of VLR. As the organic load increased from 2.6 to $15.7kgCOD/m^3/d$, the biogas production rate varied from 3.2 to 10.8 L/d and the methane conversion rate of the organic matter varied from 0.30 to $0.23m^3CH_4/kg\;COD_{removed}$. The methane content showed the range of 70.1-81.5% during the experimental period. The volatile solids (VS) removal efficiency was similar at the low VLR (< $5 kgCOD/m^3/day$), but it decreased sharply at the high VLR (> $5 kgCOD/m^3/day$). The VS reduction rate was, moreover, large those of COD. The result shows that hydraulic retention time above 2 days is essential in case of treating wastewater containing 1% of solids.

Nationally, flatfish vaccination has been performed manually, and is a laborious and time-consuming procedure with low accuracy. The handling requirement also makes it prone to contamination. With a view to eliminating these drawbacks, we designed an automatic vaccine system in which the injection is delivered by a Cartesian coordinate robot guided by a vision system. The automatic vaccine injection system is driven by an injection site location algorithm that uses a template-matching technique. The proposed algorithm was designed to derive the time and possible angles of injection by comparing a search area with a template. The algorithm is able to vaccinate various sizes of flatfish, even when they are loaded at different angles. We validated the performance of the proposed algorithm by analyzing the injection error under randomly generated loading angles. The proposed algorithm allowed an injection rate of 2000 per hour on average. Vaccination of flatfish with a body length of up to 500mm was possible, even when the orientation of the fish was random. The injection errors in various sizes of flatfish were very small, ranging from 0 to 0.6mm.

This study was focused on improving nitrification efficiencies of M-dephanox (Modified-Dephanox) process. Rotating biological contactor (RBC) was used instead of floating sponge type media in nitrification reactor. High ammonia removal efficiencies were observed in nitrification reactor, regardless of organic loading from contactor of M-dephanox process. Denitrification efficiencies were also increased to maintain low $NO_3-N$ concentration in effluent. This enhanced phosphate release in anaerobic contactor and resulted in high removal efficiencies of phophorus. Average removal efficiencies of $TCOD_{Cr}$ and $SCOD_{Cr}$ were 93.8% and 81.6%, respectively, while those of TKN and ${NH_4}^+-N$ were 80.9% and 74.4%, respectively. As for phosphorous treatment, the average removal efficiencies of TP and OP were 94.7% and 94.3%, respectively. Also, effect of operating temperature on nitrogen removal was examined. Average removal efficiency of TN was 65.8 % at $15^{\circ}C$ or below (at average temperature of $13.3^{\circ}C$), while that was 82.8% at $15^{\circ}C$ or above (at average temperature of $21.9^{\circ}C$).

As flue gas desulfurization (FGD) wastewater contains high concentrations of nitrate and is very low in organic carbon, the feasibility of nitrate removal by autotrophic denitrification using Thiobacillus denitrificans was studied. This autotrophic bacteria oxidizes elemental sulfur to sulfate while reducing nitrate to elemental nitrogen gas, thereby eliminating the need for addition of organic compounds such as methanol. Owing to the unusually high concentrations of dissolved salts $(Ca^{2+},\;Mg^{2+},\;Na^+,\;K^+,\;B^+,\;SO_4^{2-},\;Cl^-,\;F^-,)$ in the FGD wastewater, extensive laboratory-scale and pilot-scale tests were carried out in sulfur-limestone reactors (1) to determine the effect of salinity on autotrophic denitrification, (2) to evaluate the use of limestone for pH control and as source of inorganic carbon for microbial growth, and, (3) to find the optimum environmental and operational conditions for autotrophic denitrification of FGD wastewater. The experimental results demonstrated that (1) autotrophic denitrification is not inhibited up to 1.8 mol total dissolved salt content; (2) inorganic carbon and inorganic phosphorus must be present in sufficiently high concentrations; (3) limestone can supply effective buffering capacity and inorganic carbon; (4) the high calcium concentration may interfere with pH control, phosphorus solubility and limestone dissolution, hence requiring pretreatment of the FGD wastewater; and, 5) under optimum conditions, complete autotrophic denitrification of FGD wastewater was obtained in a sulfur-limestone packed bed reactor with a sulfur:limestone volume ratio of 2:1 for volumetric loading rates up to 400g $NO_{3^-}N/m^3.d$. The interesting interactions between autotrophic denitrification, pH, alkalinity, and the unusually high calcium and boron content of the FGD wastewater are highlighted. The engineering significance of the results is discussed.

최근 국내에서는 월성 1호기 및 고리 1호기를 포함하여 운영 중인 원자력발전소가 노후화함에 따라 원전 해체에 대한 관심이 많이 증대되고 있다. 이와 관련하여 월성 1호기의 계속운전이 최근 결정되었으며, 고리 1호기의 경우 2017년 6월 영구정지하기로 결정되었다. 이에 본 논문에서는 상업용 원자로로서는 국내 최초로 해체가 예정된 고리 1호기에 대해, 원자로 압력용기 자체의 해체로 인해 발생하는 방사성폐기물 최종 처분량을 원자로 압력용기 절단 방법 및 방사성폐기물 처분용기를 고려하여 산정하였다. 처분용기를 고려한 방사성폐기물 처분량을 산정한 결과 원자로 압력용기 몸통 부위보다는 반구 형태의 헤드 부분을 작게 절단할수록 최종 처분량이 감소하는 것으로 예측되었다. 또한 경주 방폐장의 200 L 및 320 L 드럼 처분용 처분용기의 경우 무게 제한으로 인해 적재효율이 좋지 못한 것으로 나타났다.

고정원에서 발생되는 질소산화물을 $V/TiO_2$ 촉매하에서 암모니아를 이용하여 질소로 제거하는 선택적 촉매 환원법에 대하여 연구하였다. 이러한 SCR 공정은 촉매의 성능이 전체 공정의 성능을 좌우한다. 본 연구에서는 $V/TiO_2$ 촉매들의 저온 및 고온에서의 SCR 반응 특성을 조사하고 촉매상에서의 암모니아 거동을 통한 반응물의 흡 탈착 특성을 파악하였다. 실험은 고정층 반응기에서 수행하였으며, 촉매는 7종의 $TiO_2$에 동일한 양의 바나듐을 담지하였다. 실험결과 각각의 $TiO_2$와 바나듐간의 상호작용에 의해 비화학양론적인 바나듐 산화물들이 다르게 생성되기 때문에 $TiO_2$에 따라 다양한 반응활성을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 각 촉매에 대하여 각각 최적의 소성온도가 존재하였으며 촉매의 활성도 각각 다르게 나타났다. 또한 촉매의 $NH_3-TPD$ 실험 결과 SCR 활성과 흡착된 $NH_3$의 양과는 직접적으로 일치하지 않았다.
