  • The performance of a novel fermentation process, adopting a sludge blanket type configuration for higher hydrolysis/acidogenesis of the municipal primary sludge, was investigated under batch and semi-continuous conditions with various pH and temperature conditions. This acid elutriation slurry reactor provided higher system performance with a short HRT (5 days) and higher acidogenic effluent quality under pH 9 and thermophilic ($55^{\circ}C$) conditions. The hydrolysis of the sludge was revealed to be significantly dependent on seasonal effects for sludge characteristics but with little impact on acidogenesis. Based on the rainy season at the optimum conditions, VFA production and recovery fraction ($VFA_{COD}/COD$) were $0.18\;g\;VFA_{COD}\;g^{-1}\;VSS_{COD}$ and 63%. As byproducts, nitrogen and phosphorus releasing were $0.006\;g\;N\;g^{-1}\;VSS_{COD}$ and $0.003\;g\;P\;g^{-1}\;VSS_{COD}$, respectively. For the mass balance in a full-scale plant($Q=158,880\;m^3\;day^{-1}$) based on the rainy season, the VFA and non-VFA(as COD) production were $3,110\;kg\;VFA_{COD}\;day^{-1}$ and $1,800\;kg\;COD\;day^{-1}$, resulting in an increase of organics of $31\;mg\;COD\;L^{-1}$ and $20\;mg\;VFA_{COD}\;L^{-1}$ and nutrients of $0.7\;mg\;N\;L^{-1}$ and $0.3\;mg\;P\;L^{-1}$ in the influent sewage. The economical benefit from this process application was estimated to be about $67 per $1,000m^3$ of sewage except for energy requirements and also, better benefits can be expected during the dry season. Also, the results revealed that the process has various additional advantages such as pathogen-free stabilized solids production, excellent solids control and economical benefits.

  • Currently, automotive pre-primed coatings has been developed to overcome environmental regulations and to reduce manufacturing cost in automotive industry. By these reasons, an automotive pre-primed system has been investigated to remove the wash and pre-treatment process using a roll coating application. It is required to develop non-weldable pre-primed system for automotive structural adhesives, because pre-primed sheet coated with organic compounds is hard to be assembled by welding process. Primer 1 (polyester type) and primer 2 (urethane type) were designed to satisfy flexibility and formability for non-weldable pre-primed system. According to the results of physical property test of the primers, adhesion test such as single-lap shear test and T-peel test, primer 1 (polyester type) had better physical properties such as pencil hardness, solvent resistance, flexibility and adhesion with automotive adhesive than that of primer 2 (polyurethane type). In addition, the possibility of the non-weldable pre-primed system was applicable to automotive assembly process in place of welding process.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate the selective media listed in currently available Food Code in Korea. The 29 different types of media of five different types of foodborne bacteria including Salmonella spp., Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Staphylococcus aureus were tested in the broth and food. The recovery test for five different types of foodborne bacteria was performed in the artificially inoculated into chicken, rice, pork and mackerel. There was no significant differences in isolation capabilities among twenty nine different types of isolation selective media for five different types of foodborne bacteria in broth condition, while there was significantly a little differences in isolation capabilities among those on foods (P<0.05). The higher number of foodborne pathogens were isolated from conventional selective media approved in Food Code than newly developed selective media such as chromogenic media. This results suggest that there was differences of selectivities among currently available isolation selective media in many countries and further studies are needed to be approved by Korean Food and Drug Administration.

  • The demand for coating technology on electric power equipment that has arisen from such issues regarding the attaching of illegal advertisements and posters to electric power distribution boxes such as TR, SW, etc. in down town areas seeks to produce functional coating surfaces using polymers and nano-materials that will result in improvements in self-cleaning performance and greater stability even under harsh environmental conditions. KEPCO-coatings consist of copolymerized acrylic resin and methacryl-modified reactive silicone that are able to chemically combine, which results in performance improvement without any leakage of of silicone, thus contributing to its properties of high-stability. Thus, the research team has also started long-term on-site testing on 9 electric power distribution spots around a city center in cooperation with the KEPCO Daeduck-yusung branch. The KEPCO-coating technology could advance the best coating materials and processes to meet appropriate circumstances for a variety of outdoor damage environment. It is also predicted that KEPCO could be possible to expand international electric maintenance markets and to arrange business platforms if KEPCO would achieve its original technology (IPs) by the means of upgrading in self-cleaning coating technology and obtaining long-term on-site test records from nationwide electric facilities.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify correlation among social support, recovery resilience, and self-care behavior among the elderly with hypertension, as well as to clarify factors that affect self-care behavior. This was a descriptive study conducted with 183 hypertensive seniors over age 65 from three different senior welfare centers in C region. Data of this study were collected from Aug 20-31, 2018. T-test, ANOVA, Pearson's coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression were used for analysis. As a result, the mean score of social support was $3.79{\pm}0.78$ out of 5, recovery resilience was $4.10{\pm}0.71$ out of 5, and self-care behavior was $3.93{\pm}0.51$ out of 5. Self-care behavior had a statistically significant positive correlation with social support(r=.204, p<.001) and recovery resilience(r=.405, p<.001). Factors influencing Self-care behavior were recovery resilience(${\beta}=.36$, p<.001) and regularity of exercise(${\beta}=.17$, p=.019). These factors explained 18.9% of self-care behavior(F=21.02, p<.001). The study results indicate that recovery resilience and regularity of exercise are critical factors affecting self-care behavior among the elderly with of hypertension. Therefore, to promote self-care behavior among the hypertensive seniors, regular exercise must be advised and the development and evaluation of nursing interventions that can improve recovery resilience may be necessary.

  • Purpose : A retrospective study was undertaken to evaluate the usefulness of low risk criteria for identifying febrile infants younger than three months unlikely to have serious bacterial infection. Methods : We conducted a retrospective study of 527 infants younger than three month with a axillary temperature ${\geq}37.4^{\circ}C$. If they met the following all four criteria, appear well, WBC $5,000-20,000/mm^3$, urine stick WBC(-) and nitrite(-), CSF WBC < $10/mm^3$, they were considered at low risk for serious bacterial infection(SBI). SBI was defined as a positive culture of urine, blood, or cerebrospinal fluid. The sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value and positive predictive value of the low risk criteria were calculated. Results : Of 527 febrile infants, 110(21.0%) had serious bacterial infections. The 2.7% who met the low risk criteria had SBI and negative predictive value was 97.3%. SBI was diagnosed in 103 infants(38.6%) who didn't meet the low risk criteria including urinary tract infection(78.6%), most commonly, bacteremia(16.5%), bacterial meningitis(8.7%), Salmonella gastroenteritis(1%), osteomyelitis( 1%), septic arthritis of hip joint(1%). There were no differences in the sensitivity and negative predictive value according to the monthly-age-group. Conclusion : This low risk criteria to identify infants unlikely to have SBI early is available, however low risk infants must be carefully observed.

  • 반도체 산업 전반에 걸쳐 이루어지고 있는 연구는 소자를 더 작게 만들면서도 구동능력은 우수한 소자를 만들어내는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 소자의 미세화와 함께 트랜지스터의 구동능력의 향상을 위한 기술개발에 대한 필요성이 점차 커지고 있으며, 고유전(high-k)재료를 트랜지스터의 게이트 절연막으로 이용하는 방법이 개발되고 있다. High-k 재료를 트랜지스터의 게이트 절연막에 적용하면 낮은 전압으로 소자를 구동할 수 있어서 소비전력이 감소하고 소자의 미세화 측면에서도 매우 유리하다. 그러나, 초미세화된 소자를 제작하기 위하여 high-k 절연막의 두께를 줄이게 되면, 전기적 용량(capacitance)은 커지지만 에너지 밴드 오프셋(band-offset)이 기존의 실리콘 산화막(SiO2)보다 작고 또한 열공정에 의해 쉽게 결정화가 이루어지기 때문에 누설전류가 발생하여 소자의 열화를 초래할 수 있다. 따라서, 최근에는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 게이트 절연막 엔지니어링을 통해서 누설전류를 줄이면서 전기적 용량을 확보할 수 있는 연구가 주목받고 있다. 본 실험에서는 high-k 물질인 Ta2O5와 SiO2를 적층시켜서 누설전류를 줄이면서 동시에 높은 캐패시턴스를 달성할 수 있는 게이트 절연막 엔지니어링에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 먼저 n-type Si 기판을 표준 RCA 세정한 다음, RF sputter를 사용하여 두께가 Ta2O5/SiO2 = 50/0, 50/5, 50/10, 25/10, 25/5 nm인 적층구조의 게이트 절연막을 형성하였다. 다음으로 Al 게이트 전극을 150 nm의 두께로 증착한 다음, 전기적 특성 개선을 위하여 furnace N2 분위기에서 $400^{\circ}C$로 30분간 후속 열처리를 진행하여 MOS capacitor 소자를 제작하였고, I-V 및 C-V 측정을 통하여 형성된 게이트 절연막의 전기적 특성을 평가하였다. 그 결과, Ta2O5/SiO2 = 50/0, 50/5, 50/10 nm인 게이트 절연막들은 누설전류는 낮지만, 큰 용량을 얻을 수 없었다. 한편, Ta2O5/SiO2 = 25/10, 25/5 nm의 조합에서는 충분한 용량을 확보할 수 있었다. 적층된 게이트 절연막의 유전상수는 25/5 nm, 25/10 nm 각각 8.3, 7.6으로 비슷하였지만, 문턱치 전압(VTH)은 각각 -0.64 V, -0.18 V로 25/10 nm가 0 V에 보다 근접한 값을 나타내었다. 한편, 누설전류는 25/10 nm가 25/5 nm보다 약 20 nA (@5 V) 낮은 것을 확인할 수 있었으며 절연파괴전압(breakdown voltage)도 증가한 것을 확인하였다. 결론적으로 Ta2O5/SiO2 적층 절연막의 두께가 25nm/10nm에서 최적의 특성을 얻을 수 있었으며, 본 실험과 같이 게이트 절연막 엔지니어링을 통하여 효과적으로 누설전류를 줄이고 게이트 용량을 증가시킴으로써 고집적화된 소자의 제작에 유용한 기술로 기대된다.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effects of induced wet-injury conditions on barley seedling growth. Barley seedlings at the three leaf stage were grown in culture solutions with various combinations of dissolved oxygen (DO), nutrients and citric acid (CA) concentrations. Seedling growth was reduced by hypoxia. Root length and root fresh weight were most severely reduced under 1 ppm DO. Shoot growth was slightly reduced but not root growth under low nutrient condition. Seedling growth was reduced by CA in a concentration-dependant manner, Response of seedling growth was efficiently differentiated in a solution containing 1 ppm DO, one tenth of the normal P, K and Mg concentration and 3 mM CA. Under this induced wet-injury condition, overall seedling growth of 6 cultivars was reduced by 11 to 19% compared to the control condition. The results suggest that the induced wet-injury condition can be used for the screening of resistant genotypes at the seedling stage.

  • This study was performed to discover the optimum operation conditions for the advanced water treatment using the ceramic membrane, introduced the first in the nation at the Y water treatment plant (WTP). The result of investigation to find the optimum operation conditions which can continue preserving the filtration performance as well as satisfying both the economics and the water quality is as follows. In the ordinary water quality condition of the Y WTP, the optimum filtration time(the backwash period), which can minimize the production of backwash waste and preserve the membrane performance was examined to be 4.0 hours on basis of institution capacity ($16,000m^3/day$). Examining the recovery rate of TMP from the chemical cleaning (CIP) discovered that the inorganic contaminants, which cause membrane fouling, such as iron, manganese, aluminum, were removed through the acidic cleaning using citric acid, whereas the membrane recovery rate was found to be low. But, on the other hand, the TMP was recovered to the initial value from the alkali cleaning using the NaOCl. Therefore, the main contaminant causing the fouling was determined to be hydrophilic organic compound( biopolymer). The membrane recovery rate is highly influenced by the temperature of the cleaning chemical. That is, the rate increased with increasing temperature.
