The use of solar energy among renewable energy tends to increase because of its infinity and cleanness of resources. Even though the consumption rate of solar energy in our country is still low, however, in recent years, the research for solar energy have been widely conducted due to policy support of government. This study was performed to investigate the efficiency of heat collection using solar collector with single evacuated tube-type. As the results, the temperature of radiation fin for solar collector with single evacuated tube-type was lower in spite of high temperature of heat pipe compared that of double evacuated tube-type. In order to increase the efficiency of heat collection, it was confirmed that the loss of heat collection due to contact resistance as well as performance improvement for solar collector should be decreased.

Seawater desalination plants generally have two inherent problems which stem from energy inefficiency and desalination concentrate management. The former has been somewhat resolved thanks to the innovative methods in utilizing new and renewable energy resources whereas the latter still has much issues to be dealt with. This paper introduces the application of a desalting process for the disposal of desalination concentrate (especially, Mg) and to improve its cost effectiveness of a MVR seawater desalination plant built in Jeju. Principal component analysis on the desalination concentrate has revealed a steady reduction of Mg with the application of the desalting process verifying its functional reliability. Also, it was found that our MVR seawater desalination plant is not only energy efficient but also could be effectively applied for the dual purpose of fresh water production and concentrate management.

Thermal insulation performance of new insulation packaging made of recycled PET nonwoven (thickness : 10 mm) was verified by conducting comparative experiment with an EPS box (thickness : 25 mm) and a double wall corrugated box (thickness : 7 mm). Three ice packs (300 g) were positioned 200 mm above the bottom inside each box, all of which are placed side by side and temperature change of 2 points (5mm under middle icepack and 130 mm under middle icepack) was recorded by data logger (GL-840, Graphtec) for 16 hours under the environment of 29℃. The new packaging box showed 75% higher insulation performance than the EPS box and 180% higher than the corrugated box. In order to figure out the reason for insulation performance difference among boxes, thermal conductivities of each box material were measured using heat flow meter (HFM436 lamda, Netzsch). U-value (thermal conductivity divided by thickness) of EPS was lower than recycled pet nonwoven by 57%, which seemed to be opposite to the result of insulation test of boxes. This was explained by high water vapor transmission rate of EPS (6 times higher than PET insulation) and air pocket effect of PET insulation.

This study was conducted to establish a regeneration system of plantlets through callus culture induced from bulb scales of Lillium‘Gelria’. Friable callus was induced very easily from bulb scales, and grew vigorously on medium lacking growth regulators. In media with 0.5∼ 1.0 mg/L kinetin and 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L NAA, 100% of explants produced callus. Proliferation of callus was actively occurred on media containing 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L kinetin and 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L NAA. Callus proliferation and regeneration of bulblets from callus were occurred simultaneously. Light condition was more effective for the callus proliferation and solid medium was better than liquid medium. Althrough callus was proliferated vigorously on media containing 0.1 ∼ 1.0 mg/L BA and NAA, the frequncy of plantlet regeneration was better on medium without growth regulators, then on medium with 0.1 mg/L BA and NAA.

The use of eco-friendly energy in the offshore plant system is expanding because conventional generators are operated by fossil fuel or natural gas. Eco-friendly energy, which replaces existing power generation methods, should be capable of generating the power for lighting protection equipment, airborne fault indication, parameter measurement, and others. Most of the eco-friendly energy used in offshore plant facilities is solar and wind power. In the case of using photovoltaic power, because the structure must be constructed based as flat solar panels, it can be damaged easily by the wind. Therefore, there is a need for a new generation system composed of a spherical structure that does not require a separate structure and is less influenced by the wind. Considering these characteristics, in this study we designed, fabricated, and tested a unit that could provide the most efficient spherical photovoltaic power generation considering wind direction and wind pressure. Our test results indicated that the proposed system reduced costs because it did not require any separate structure, used eco-friendly energy, reduced carbon dioxide emissions, and expanded the proportion of eco-friendly energy use by offshore plant facilities.

As the needs for alternative energy and renewable energy increase, there has been a lot of investment in developing wind energy, which does not cause air pollution nor the greenhouse gas effect. Wind energy is an environment friendly energy that is unlimited in its resources and is possible to be produced wherever the wind blows. However, since wind energy heavily relies on wind that has unreliable characteristics, it may be difficult to have efficient energy transmissions. For this reason, an important factor in wind energy forecasting is the estimation of available wind power. In this study, Gunsan wind farm data was used to compare ARMA model to neural network model to analyze for more accurate prediction of wind power generation. As a result, the neural network model was better than the ARMA model in the accuracy of the wind power predictions.

Analysis methods in the power system are static analysis, dynamic analysis and online analysis, offline analysis. The static analysis is used for the existing power system analysis method and the static analysis is mainly used for PSS / E. However, in the real system where the value changes in real time which we are using, dynamic analysis is required which can be analyzed in real time for accurate analysis. Therefore, attention is focused on EMS (Energy Management System) and importance is increasing. Among the various EMS systems, we will cover state estimation, which is a static on-line analysis that can receive and interpret data from the acquisition point in real time. DC systems are spreading in various fields such as DC load, DC distribution, renewable energy. As such, much attention and attention are focused on the DC system. In this paper, we have studied the feasibility through the case study and the interpretation of the state estimation that can be applied to the DC system.

This study investigated the carbon offset project activities as the activities of producing commodities by a case study on the Korean Clean Development Mechanism(CDM) industry. This study draw the networks of Korean CDM industry by extracting major agents and surrounding agents and by analyzing the characteristics of the linkages. The project participants owning the CDM projects hires CDM consultancies and designated operational entities(DOEs). The technical knowledge for carbon emission reduction made links between project participants and the CDM project operational knowledge made links between project participants and CDM consultancies. Links between project participants and DOEs are affected by social and geographical proximities. The value of the knowledge for CDM industrial activities determined the role of agents and type of linkages. The agents with the irreplaceable knowledge could be a project conducting firms. The agents without it became outsourcing contractors.

Based on the consideration of the hourly patterns of the electricity power consumption, this study predicted the effectiveness of hybrid power generation system, which is composed with wind power generator and photovoltaic generator. And this case study is performed at Konrido, which is a affiliated island of Kyeongsangnam-do. As the results, it is obvious that it is not efficient to cover the whole electricity power consumption only with any single power generating system, because the hourly patterns of electricity power consumption, wind power generation and photovoltaic generation are quite different. And because the wind is being through almost 24 hours, it is also found out that wind power generating system with storage battery is the most efficient combination for this case study.

The enormous production of spores by the fruitbodies in the cultivation of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) is develop an allergy with symptoms similar to an "extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EEA)". the sporeless strain would noy only benefit health of mushroom workers but also reduce the risk of viral infections on the mushroom farms. For the development of a sporeless strain of P. ostreatus we used strain ASI 2069. This non-commercial strain is completely nonsporulating. We have recovered both nuclear types of strain ASI 2069 as monokaryons (hereafter referred to as neohaplonts) by protoplasting the mycelium. Crosses between neohaplonts and SSI's(single spore isolates) obtained from a sporulating commercial strain ASI 2180 yielded fruitbodies that isolated 128 strains. 13 excellent strains are selected from 30 bred strains by quality of fruitbodies and spore number. Among 13 excellent strains, G192 strain is chose finally to high yield and sporelessness.
