Bamboo is an evergreen perennial plant, and it is known as one of the most productive and fastest-growing plants in the world. It grows quickly in moderate climates with only moderate water and fertilizer. Traditionally in Asia, bamboo is used for building materials, as a food source, and as versatile raw materials. Bamboo as a biomass feedstock can be transformed to prepare activated carbon using the thermal treatment of pyrolysis. The effect of process variables such as carbonization temperature, activation temperature, activation time, the amount of steam, and the mixing ratio of phosphoric acid and bamboo were systematically investigated to optimize the preparation conditions. Steam activation was proceeded after carbonization with a vapor flow rate of $0.8{\sim}1.8mL-H_2O\;g-char^{-1}\;h^{-1}$ and activation time of 1 ~ 3 h at $700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$. Carbon yield and surface area reached 2.04 ~ 20.59 wt% and $499.17{\sim}1074.04m^2\;g^{-1}$, respectively, with a steam flow rate of $1.4mL-H_2O\;g-char^{-1}\;h^{-1}$ for 2 h. Also, the carbon yield and surface area were 24.67 wt% and $1389.59m^2\;g^{-1}$, respectively, when the bamboo and phosphoric acid were mixed in a 1:1 weight ratio ($700^{\circ}C$, 2 h, $1.4mL-H_2O\;g-char^{-1}\;h^{-1}$). The adsorption of methylene blue into the bamboo activated carbon was studied based on pseudo first order and second order kinetics models. The adsorption kinetics were found to follow the pseudo second order model, which is governed by chemisorption.

Cultured juvenile black rockfish, Sebastes schiegeli as a seed for sen ranching project were compared with the similar size of wild fish. Wild fish were analyzed and compared with cultured fish in body indices, and moisture, crude protein, lipid, ash, many kinds of amino acids and various minerals in the whole-body of juvenile rockfish from three different populations. There were significant (P<0.05) differences in the moisture, crude lipid, and ash in the whole-body of fish among three different populations; the moisture content of wild fish was higher than that of both cultured fish. The lipid content in wild and tank cultured fish was lowest and highest, respectively; The lipid content of fish cultured in embanked system was intermediate values. The condition factor (CE), hepatosomatic index (HSI), and intraperitoneal fat (IPE) of fish cultured in tank system and embanked system were significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of wild fish. But fish cultured in tank system produced similar intestinosomatic index (ISI) and muscle ratio (MR) values as the wild fish. There were significant differences in asparatic acid, glutamic acid, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine of whole-body fish cultured by different methods; the wild fish was highest in these amino acids, followed by fish cultured in embanked system and then fish cultured in tank system. There were also significant differences in Ca, P, Mg, Mn, Zn of whole-body fish cultured by different methods: wild fish and fish cultured in tank system produced highest in Ca, P, Mg, Zn and lowest in Mn, respectively. There were significant differences in moisture, crude lipid, ash, many kinds of amino acids, several minerals, CE, HSI, UE, and ISI among the three juvenile populations; whole-body of wild fish showed higher in moisture, ash, asparatic acid, glutamic acid, isoleucine, leucine, Iysine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine, Ca, P, Mg, and Zn than fish cultured in embanked system, while they showed lower in the rest of the nutritious parameters studied.

Phosphoric acid used for the production of phosphate fertilizers is synthesized by the reaction of phosphate rock and sulfuric acid. As the reaction is exothermic, yield of phosphoric acid is poor at elevated temperature. Therefore, enhancement in its yield requires the process temperature be maintained by releasing the vapor ($80^{\circ}C$) containing HF and SiF4 through a vacuum cooler. However, these valuable resources; Fand Si, which can be utilized for the manufacture of refrigerant and polysilicon, respectively, are being wasted in the treatment process. We performed lab-scale experiments to estimate the amount of recoverable H2SiF6, a by-product of phosphoric acid manufacturing process. The experimental results showed a decrease of fluorine concentration by 0.12wt% in the liquid phase. Preliminary estimation showed a possible recovery of 5,509 ton/yr of fluorine considering the scale of the fertilizer manufacturing plant. Furthermore, field-scale experiment showed that H2SiF6 could be enriched in liquid phase from 0.35wt% to 7.33wt% and the vapor flow-rate from vacuum cooler was estimated at $51,000m^3/hr$. Anew, the efficiency of fluorine recovery in the pilot-scale experiment was found to be 76.74% and the production of H2SiF6 was estimated at 5,340 ton/yr.

Renewable energy has been of interests in the area of modern alternative fuels. Biogas is produced in waste landfill sites through anaerobic digestion processes, including hydrolysis, acidogenesis, organic acid fermentation (acetogenesis), and methane fermentation (methanogenesis). High contents of fine dust and moisture limited its utilization for direct combustion, town gas and vehicle fuel. Thus, this study proposed a new design for a cooling device using a centrifugal cyclone for simultaneous removal of fine dust and moisture as a pretreatment in the purification processes. A heat exchanger and an ID fan, which are installed inside and outside of the cyclone, in order to cool the humid gas below the freezing point and form a foggy mist. Such an atmosphere enhanced to capture fine dust as recirculating the cold mist flow. The water removal rate was 80.8% at a relative humidity of 95%, and the particle removal efficiency was 98.3% for $2.5{\mu}m$. Simultaneous removal efficiency was 70.8% and 99.6% for particle and moisture respectively.

유연성 투명 전도막은 현대 전자산업의 발전에 있어 필수적인 부품소재로서, 가시광선의 투과율이 80% 이상이고 면저항이 $100{\Omega}/sq.$ 전후이며 휘거나 접히고 나아가 두루마리의 형태로도 응용이 가능한 소재를 일컫는다. 이러한 유연성 투명 전도막은 차세대 정보디스플레이 산업 및 유비쿼터스 사회의 중심이 되는 유연성 디스플레이, 터치패널, 발광다이오드, 태양전지 등 매우 다양한 분야에 응용이 기대된다. 이러한 이유로 고 신뢰성 유연성 투명 전도막 개발기술은 차세대 산업에 있어서의 핵심기술로 인식되고 있다. 현재로서는 인듐 주석 산화물(indium tin oxide; ITO) 및 전도성 유기고분자를 사용하여 투명 전도막을 제조하고 있으나, ITO 박막의 경우 인듐 자원의 고갈로 인한 가격상승 및 기판과의 낮은 접착력, 열팽창계수의 차이로 인한 공정상의 문제, 산화물 특유의 취성으로 인한 유연소자로서의 내구성 저하 등의 문제가 제기되고 있다. 전도성 유기고분자의 경우는 낮은 전기전도도와 기계적강도, 유기용매 처리 등의 문제점이 지적되고 있다. 따라서 높은 전기전도도와 투광도 뿐만 아니라 유연성을 지니는 재료의 개발이 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 최근 이러한 재료로서 그래핀(graphene)과 탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotube; CNT)를 중심으로 하는 탄소나노재료가 주목받고 있으며 많은 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 열화학기상증착법(thermal vapor deposition; TCVD)으로 합성된 그래핀 및 CNT를 이용하여 탄소나노재료 복합체 기반의 유연성 투명 전도막을 제작하고 그 특성을 평가하였다. 그래핀과 CNT합성을 위한 기판으로는 각각 300 nm 두께의 니켈과 1 nm 철이 증착된 실리콘 웨이퍼를 이용하였으며, 원료가스로는 메탄(CH4)과 아세틸렌(C2H2)등의 탄화수소가스를 이용하였다. 그래핀의 경우 원료가스의 유량, 합성온도, 냉각속도를 변경하여 대면적으로 두께균일도가 높은 그래핀을 합성하였으며, CNT의 경우 합성시간을 변수로 길이 제어합성을 도모하였다. 합성된 그래핀은 식각공정을, CNT는 스프레이 증착공정을 통해 고분자 기판(polyethylene terephthalate; PET) 위에 순차적으로 전사 및 증착하여 탄소나노재료 복합체 기반의 유연성 투명 전도막을 제작하였다. 제작된 탄소나노재료 복합체 기반의 유연성 투명 전도막은 물리적 과부하를 받았을 때 발생할 수 있는 유연성 투명 전도막의 구조적결함에 기인하는 전도성 저하를 보상하는 특징이 있어, 그래핀과 탄소나노튜브 각각으로 제조된 유연성 투명 전도막보다 물리적인 하중이 반복적으로 인가되었을 때 내구성이 향상되는 효과가 있다. 40% 스트레인을 반복적으로 인가하였을 때 그래핀 투명 전도막은 20 사이클 이후에 면저항이 $1-2{\Omega}/sq.$에서 $15{\Omega}/sq.$ 이상으로 급증한 반면 그래핀-CNT 복합체 투명 전도막은 30사이클까지 $1-2{\Omega}/sq.$ 정도의 면저항을 유지하였다.

This is to study the characteristics of available water resources (AWR) of the eastern coastal area in Korea. A rating curve was suggested at Yangyang water level station of the Yangyangnamdai river. Annual mean precipitation of this area is 1365.8mm. Annual mean precipitation in central and northern area of eastern coastal area is more than that of southern area because of orographic precipitation occurred by the north-easterly air flow from the East sea. By the correlation analysis of monthly rainfall depths between rainfall gauging stations it is presented that the rainfall gauging stations located in coastal region have the regional representativity, but the rainfall gauging stations located in the westward of mountains have a strong locality. AWR of eastern coastal area by the application of runoff coefficient 0.665 is 1134.5X106m3 and 28.6 percentage for total water resources. In each watershed AWR is 193.7X106m3 in the Yangyangnamdai river, 109X106m3 in the Kangnungnamdai river, and 146.0X106m3 in the Samcheokosip river. The seasonal changes of 30/3% in summer and 19.1% in water, and those of the AWR to total water resources are 86.3% in winter, 60.1% in spring, 50.1% in autumn, and 25.7% in summer. The results of this study may be used to establish the water resources planning of eastern coastal area.

This study was performed to analyze the sequence variations of mtDNA D-loop and their effects on milk in Hanwoo(Korean cattle). The resulting sequences were compared with previously published sequences for other cattle breeds (GenBank JOI394). The Polymerase Chain Reaction was performed to amplify a total of 964 bp between nucleotide 15758 and 383 within D-loop region of mtDNA using specific primers. Twenty polymorphic sites by nucleotide substitution were found in mtDNA D-loop region of Hanwoo. The frequencies of positions at 8, 169, 16042, 16051, 16057, 16093, 16119, 16122, 16209, 16255 and 16302 nt with high levels of sequence polymorphism were 0.150, 0.950, 0.085, 0.138, 0.106, 0.085, 0.138, 0.212, 0.085, 0.148 and 0.180, respectively. The substitution effect at 16119(p<0.1) and 16185(p< 0.05) nt was found significant on milk production. Polymorphism of mtDNA sequence in D-Ioop region could be useful for the analysis of cytoplasmic genetic variation and associations with the other economically important traits and maternal lineage analysis in Hanwoo.

Geothermal energy is believed to be an important source among the renewable energy sources to provide the base load electricity. Although there has been a drastic increase in the use of geothermal heat pump in Korea, there is no geothermal power plant in operation in Korea. Fortunately, the first EGS (Enhanced Geothermal System) Project in Korea has started in Dec 2010. This five year project is divided into two stages; two years for exploration and drilling of 3 km depth to confirm the minimum target temperature of 100 degrees, and another three years composed drilling 5 km doublet, hydraulic stimulation of geothermal reservoir with expected temperature of 180 degrees (40 kg/s) and construction of MW geothermal power plant in the surface. This EGS project would be a landmark effort that invited a consortium of industry, research institutes and university with expertises in the fields of geology, hydrogeology, geophysics, geomechanics and plant engineering.

미국 국립가뭄경감센터 (National Drought Mitigation Center, NDMC)는 다양한 가뭄지수를 통합하여 미국 전역의 가뭄진행상황을 모니터링하고 가뭄대응정책 수립을 위한 주요 의사결정정보로 활용하고 있다. 대표적으로 1999년에 개발되어 현재까지 운영 중인 미국가뭄모니터 (United States Drought Monitor, USDM)는 미국 전역에 대하여 가뭄단계를 표시한 지도 (U.S. Drought Monitor map)를 매주 생성하여 제공하고 있다 (http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/). 가뭄지표(drought index)는 가뭄의 현황과 시공간적인 전개 과정을 분석하고 정량적 가뭄심도 평가 및 가뭄대응계획 수립을 위한 도구로써 다양하게 개발되어 활용되고 있다. 가뭄의 정도를 정량화하기 위하여 개발된 다수의 가뭄지수는 대상과 평가방법에 따라 가뭄을 표현하는 특성이 서로 다르다. 하나의 가뭄지수로는 가뭄특성을 온전히 표현하기 어렵기 때문에, 최근에는 단일 가뭄지수에 의존하기 보다는 다수의 가뭄지수를 이용하되, 여러 가뭄지수 간의 특징을 고려하여 각 가뭄지수가 갖는 장단점을 상호 보완하여 사용하기를 권고하고 있다. USDM은 파머가뭄심도지수 (Palmer Drought Severity Index, PDSI), Soil Moisture Model (NOAA Climate Prediction Center, CPC), 미 지리조사국의 하천유량 주간보고 (USGS Weekly Streamflow), 표준강수지수 (Standardized Precipitation Index, SPI) 등의 주요 가뭄판단지표를 선정하고, 가뭄판단의 기준으로써 각 가뭄지수의 가뭄심도 (drought severity) 및 백분위수 (percentiles)로 등급을 구분하였다. 가뭄등급은 '정상 상태 (none)'를 포함하여 '비정상적인 건조 (abnormally dry, D0)'에서 최악의 가뭄상태를 의미하는 '이례적인 가뭄상태 (exceptional, D4)'에 이르는 6 단계로 구분하고, 정상상태를 제외한 5 단계의 통합가뭄단계로 표시한다. 우리나라에서는 기상청, 수자원공사, 농어촌공사에서 기상/수문/농업관련 가뭄지수의 위험지도를 실시간으로 제공하고 있으며, 각 지표별로 상이한 기준으로 가뭄을 판단하고 있다. 각각의 가뭄지표에 대한 가뭄판단기준은 해당 국가의 장기적으로 축적된 자료를 활용하여 가뭄단계 및 가뭄판단기준의 재설정에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 SPI, SC-PDSI, 표준강수증발산지수 (Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index, SPEI), Evaporative Demand Drought Index (EDDI), 유효가뭄지수 (Effectvie Drought Index, EDI)의 다양한 가뭄지수를 활용하여 USDM의 가뭄심도 및 가뭄판단기준을 적용하고자한다.
