수중방전은 다양한 라디칼을 직접 물 속에서 발생시키기 때문에 수처리 공정에 다양한 응용이 가능하다. 특히, 최근에 선박평형수 등의 살균이 국제적인 이슈가 되고 있고, 2017년까지는 모든 선박에 살균을 위한 수처리 설비가 의무화된다. 본 연구에서는 염분이 있는 수체에서의 방전공정을 연구하고 이를 수처리공정에 적용할 수 있는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 해수의 경우 전도도가 53mS로 자유로운 전하의 이동이 가능하기 때문에 일반적인 민물방전의 전원과 전극 등으로는 방전을 할 수 없다. 이에 세라믹과 금속의 이중구조로 되어 있는 모세관전극을 개발하여 전도성이 있는 수체에서의 방전을 이루었다. 전원장치로는 60 Hz, 380 V를 1차측에 인가하여 2차측에서 약 3 kV, 10 kW의 파워가 발생하는 12위상차 교류전원장치를 개발하여 사용하였다. 모세관 내부에 전압이 인가되면 전류가 발생하여 joule heating에 의하여 모세관 내부에 기포가 형성된다. 이 때, 전류의 단락이 이루어지면서 고전압쪽에 전하가 축적되며 기포내부의 E-field가 상승한다. 이후 기포 내에서 방전이 개시되며 각종 라디칼을 생성한다. 방전에 의해 생성되는 산화제로는 오존, OH라디칼, 과산화수소 등이 있으며, 해수에서는 Cl-의 결합에 의하여 Cl2 가스가 발생한다. 약 30,000 J/L의 체적에너지에 대하여 생성되는 총염소의 농도는 2.5 mg/L이다. 수중방전의 적용대상으로 선박평형수, 멤브레인과의 결합, 용존기포부상법을 선정하여 적용가능성을 연구하였다. 먼저 선박평형수 살균처리를 위해 해수의 처리유량을 20 lpm으로 유지하고 대장균, 바실러스, 조류(테트라셀미스) 등을 투입하여 전극 12개가 삽입된 12위상차 플라즈마 반응기를 통과시켰더니, 약 30,000 J/L의 체적에너지에 대하여 1일 후의 살균력이 각각 99.99, 99.99, 99.9%의 살균력을 나타내었다. 이는 국제해사기구에서 권장하는 살균수준인 99.9%를 초과하는 수치이다. 플라즈마를 이용한 해수살균공정의 안정적 운전을 위해 후단에 UF멤브레인을 추가하여 잔류생존 미생물을 제거할 수 있다. 이를 위해 플라즈마가 후단의 멤브레인 운전에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 카올린과 탄산칼슘을 오염원으로 각각 투입하여 멤브레인으로 처리를 하였을 때, 방전 직후 멤브레인에 걸리는 막간압력차가 약 30% 감소하였는데, 이는 막에 형성된 파울링이 방전에 의해 제거된 것으로 평가할 수 있다. 수중방전은 다양한 산화제를 생성함과 동시에 미세기포를 발생시키는데 이는 수중유기물의 부상분리에 적용될 수 있다. 방전모세관전극의 내부직경을 1 mm로 유지하고, 60 Hz, 교류전원으로 방전한 결과 평균입경 44 um의 기포를 발생시켰고, 이는 일반적으로 용존공기부상법에 사용되는 기포의 크기와 일치한다.

This study was conducted to find out the analysis condition of selenium(Se) in oil refinery wastewater with a high concentration of Se using the atomic absorption spectrometry with hydride generation system (HG-AAS). From various experiments that reduced Se(VI) to Se(IV), the optimum pretreatment condition was determined to be a sample volume of 10 mL, HCl 10 mL, with a 30 min heating time in a water bath. In oil refinery wastewater, as the concentration of organics and constitution became higher, the recovery rates of Se decreased. Therefore, three acid digestion methods ($HNO_3/HClO_4$ digestion, $KMnO_4$ digestion, and microwave acid digestion) were tested on the recovery rates of Se in reference to the digestion of organics, petroleum and oxidation from organic Se(org.), Se(IV) to Se(VI). The experiment results showed that the average recovery rate of Se was the highest in microwave acid digestion, although all of the digestions were more than 90%. In consequence, the pretreatment procedure of microwave digestion followed by HCl addition was the most suitable for selenium analysis in oil refinery wastewater by using HG-AAS.

The objective of this study was to identify the quantitative traits loci(QTL) for meat quality traits in pigs. Three-generation resource population was constructed from a cross between Korean native boars and Landrace sows. The resource population including founders, $F_1$ and $F_2$ was genotyped for 23 microsatellite markers on chromosome 7. The sex average total length of linkage map on chromosome 7 was estimated 154.6 cM. Meat quality traits including meat pH, meat color, drip loss, shear force, heating loss, crude fat, crude protein, crude ash and water content in muscle were collected from $F_2$ animals. For the QTL mapping, we used $F_2$ QTL Analysis Servlet of QTL express for web-based QTL mapping tools(http://qtl.cap.ed.ac.uk/). The QTLs for CIE-a and CIE-b on SSC7 were significantly detected at 1% and 5% chromosome-wide level, respectively.

Heating characteristics for retort pouches of Kimchi heated in hot water were determined as a function of various parameters for processing. Processing conditions in laboratory and commercial retort were also evaluated on the basis of storage test. D values for Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from test sample ranged from $D^{1.08}\;to\;D^{0.18}$ and z value was $10.5^{\circ}C$. Thermal diffusivity of Kimchi increased from 1.15 to $1.44{\times}10^{-3}cm/s$ by blanching for 15 min at $80^{\circ}C$. The rate of heat penetration was significantly decreased with increasing the thickness of the pouch although the decreases was less significant below 1.0cm thickness. Increasing in the ratio of solid to syrup up to 90:10 proportionately decreased $f_h$ value, but above the ratio $f_h$ values were nearly constant.

In order to verify the usability of the greenhouse for aquaculture with nutrient culture synchronously and to obtain the fundamental data fir the establishment of efficient farming technology, the characteristics of microclimate and the growth of leafy vegetables were examined. Tilapia averaged 428.6 g grew to 784 g(1.83 times) for 147 days from May 29 to Oct. 21 and fingerlings averaged 12.9 g grew by 1.37 times for 61 days from Sep. 13 to Nov. 12. The growth of vegetables such as water dropwort, leaf lettuce, Chinese cabbage, and Welsh onion in the greenhouse was better for aquaculture with nutrient culture than for nutrient culture only. Between above two greenhouses, pH and EC of nutrient solution was same but the temperature different by about 2$^{\circ}C$. Average day temperature, relative humidity, and $CO_2$ concentration were higher by 2.9$^{\circ}C$, 6%, and 200 ppm in the greenhouse for aquaculture with nutrient culture, respectively. Net assimilation rate of vegetables in the greenhouse was a little higher for aquaculture with nutrient culture than for nutrient culture only. Therefore, provided aquaculture and nutrient culture are carried out in the same greenhouse, the saving effect of heating cost as well as the additional promotive effects of vegetable and tilapia growth can be obtained.

In Korea, the zero energy building was designated as the 7 new industries in the Ministry of Land and the 8 new industries in the Ministry of Industry. In order to maximize the insulation performance of the building envelope, improve the efficiency of building equipment, We are aiming. It is necessary to analyze the energy requirements of the buildings (cooling, heating, hot water supply, lighting, ventilation) of buildings with energy efficiency level of 1++ which is equivalent to the zero energy building certification system in Korea, It is aimed to be used as basic data for the advancement of energy building certification system. Zero Energy Building certification is estimated to be 61 buildings by 2017, and the approximate reference value and the first energy requirement for each of the five loads are calculated considering passive and active aspects. It is difficult to say that it is a clear standard because there is a small sample of data for calculating the load standard. However, it is necessary to interpret various methods in order to upgrade the Zero Energy Building certification standard in the future.

The feasibility of the Natural and Ecological Wastewater treatment System (NEWS) was examined for rural wastewater treatment in Korea. The intermittent trickling biofilter with high hydrophilic filter media was used for pretreatment for suspended solids and organic pollutants. The subsequent constructed wetland with porous granule materials was used for promoting nutrient removal. The results show that the removal efficiencies of the system were high with respect to the water quality parameters except COD. Even if the effluent from the biofilter did not meet the guidelines for wastewater treatment plant effluent in Korea in terms of $BOD_5$ and TN, the final effluent of the system meets the guidelines us to good performance of the constructed wetland. The regression analysis between pollutant loading rate and removal rate indicated that the system could have stable removal for SS, $BOD_5$, TN, and TP in the given influent ranges. The analysis in the winter period indicated that the wetland covered with transparent polycarbonate glass had the statble performance during the winter period dus to increase of temperature inside the wetland without any heating system. With the stable performance, effective poilutant removal, low maintenance, and cost-effectiveness, the NEWS could be considered as an alternative treatment system for decentralized regions and rural communities in Korea.

Quality stability of roasted lavers during heat treatment and storage was investigated measuring the changes in pigments including chlorophyll a, carotenoids and biliproteins, fatty acids and free amino acids as the major quality factors. In roasting of fried lavers, carotenoids were found to lie more stable than chlorophyll a, and biliproteins were most heat labile. The overall heat stability of the pigments depended upon heating time and temperature. Chlorophyll a and carotenoids were retained more than $90\%$ in the casts of roasting for 90 min. at $60^{\circ}C;\;60min.\;at\;80^{\circ}C;\;10\;min.\;at\;100^{\circ}C;\;or\;5min.\;at\;150^{\circ}C$ while biliproteins remained about $70\%$. The lipids of dried lavers including polyunsaturated fatty acids appeared rather heat stable when compared to the stability of pigments under the same conditions of roasting. Spray of sesame oil or seasoning solutions on the surface of lavers after roasting seemed desirable for stabilizing pigments and free amino acids during storage particularly at low water activity. And that was also benefit for the protection of polyenoic fatty acids from rapid progress of oxidation during storage. Free amino acids were reduced fast during roasting, especially most of threonine and glycine while glutamic acid was rapidly lost during the storage.

Processing conditions of whole sardine into modified fish sauce were investigated. Thawed and chopped sardine was homogenized and hydrolyzed using commercial proteolytic enzymes such as complex enzyme-2000($2.18{\cdot}10^4U/g solid$) and alcalase($1.94{\cdot}10^4\;U/g solid$) in a cylindrical vessel with 4 baffles and 6-bladed impeller. Optimal pH, enzyme concentration and temperature for the hydrolysis with complex enzyme-2000 were 7.0, $7\%$ (W/W) and $52^{\circ}C$, and-those with alcalase were 8.0, $6\%$ (W/W) and $60^{\circ}C$. In both cases, the reasonable amount of water for homogenization, agitation speed and hydrolyzing time were $100\%$ (W/W), 100 rpm and 210 minutes. Thermal treatment of the filtered hydrolysate at $90^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours with $6\%$ of invert sugar was adequated to inactivation of the enzymes and pasteurization of the hydrolysate. Flavor, taste and color of the hydrolysate were improved during the heating process in which the browning products might participate. The content of free amino nitrogen in the fish sauce seasoned with $15\%$ of table salt was ca. $1,640 mg\%$. Yield of the fish sauce based on the contents of proteinous and free amino nitrogen in the raw whole sardine was ca. $86\%$, and ca. $96\%$ of these compounds of the fish sauce was in the form of free amino nitrogen. The pH, salinity and histamine content of the fish sauce were $6.1\~6.3,\;14.2\~14.3\%$ and less than $10\;mg\%$.

The heat transportation from a complex of industry to a rural area needs more efficient method because the distance between them is usually more than 10km. Conventional heat transportation using steam or hot water via pipe line has limits in transportation distance (about 3~5 km) because of the heat loss and frictional loss in the pipe line. Metal hydride can absorb or discharge hydrogen through exothermic or endothermic reaction. After releasing hydrogen from metal hydride by means of the waste heat from industry, we can transport this hydrogen to urban area via pipe line. In urban areas, other metal alloy reacts with this hydrogen to form metal hydride and produces heat for heating. Cool heat is also obtained if it is possible to use metal hydride with low reaction temperature. Therefore, metal hydride can be used as a media for transportation and storage of heat. $MmNi_{4.5}Al_{0.5}Zr_{0.003}$, $LaNi_5$, $Zr_{0.9}Ti_{0.1}Cr_{0.6}Fe_{1.4}$, $MmNi_{4.7}Al_{0.1}Fe_{0.1}V_{0.1}$ alloys were selected for this purpose and the properties of those metal hydrides were discussed. The design and control techniques were proposed and discussed for this heat transportation system using metal hydride.
