Most fossil steam generating units are currently being designed for base load operation and are not therefore generally suitable for large and rapid recurring load fluctuations. In particular the control systems adopted for such units are not adequate for the severe recurrent load fluctuations. In particular the control systems adopted for such units are not adequate for the severe recurrent load fluctuations that are expected by the plant supplying the power requirements of the electric are furnaces and rolling mills employed by the steel industry. This paper presents a feasible Anticipatory Control Algorithm which ensures that the fossil fuel fired plant can meet such severe requirements from the control point of view. Details of such a control algorithm and its dynamic simulation on a sample power system are also presented.

Steelmaking industry is widely known to use a lot of water and same amount of wastewater is generated. Although toxicity of wastewater from Steelmaking industry is low, it contains an amount of various organic materials and Fe-Oxides. It is important to recycle the wastewater because of water shortages and water pollution. In general, large-scale equipment is necessary to process the wastewater. On the other hand, superconducting high gradient magnetic separation (HGMS) system can process the wastewater in the small space. Superconducting HGMS system that had a purpose to purify the wastewater was assembled. Cryo-cooled Nb-Ti superconducting magnet was used for magnetic separator. This system can operate continuously because contaminated filters can keep on returning after cleaning. The various magnetic seeding reactions were investigated to increase the reactivity of coagulation. Filter cleaning system was developed to decrease the quantity of clean water. This research was supported by a grant from Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute, Republic of Korea.

Recently, the importance of plant maintenance(PM) was highly raised to provide efficient plant operation which highly affects the productivity. For this reason, a number of engineering methodologies, such as riskbased inspection(RBI), fitness for service guidelines(FFS), plant lifecycle management(PLM), have been applied to improve the plant operation efficiency. Also, a network-based business operation system, which is called ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning), has been introduced in the field of plant maintenance. However, there was no attempt to connect engineering methodologies to the ERP PM system. In this paper, a knowledge-based information system for the plant operation of steel making company has been proposed. This system, which is named as K-VRS(Knowledge-based Virtual Reality System), provides a connection between ERP plant maintenance module and knowledge-based engineering methodologies, and thus, enables network-based highly effective plant maintenance process. The developed system is expected to play a great role for more efficient and safer plant maintenance.

Carbon material such as graphite and activated charcoal can promote the growth of some formsog bacteria. We examined whether this bacterial growth promoting effect can have a positive influence on field crops. Refined graphite was mixed into the standard soil used in rice cultivation. Varying soil graphite mixtures of 0.1%, 0.5% and 1% were used to cultivate rice seedling for 3 weeks. After transplanting in the filed, rice plants were cultivated for 4 months. To observe the effect of graphite(carbon material) during the cultivation of rice, we examined various different growth components in this research. During the transplanting stage, growth promoting effect of carbon was observed in the 0.1% carbon added soil. However, there were not much difference between graphite added soil and standard soil in the other stages. Rice yield was highest in the soil with 0.1% graphite.

Flue gases in the iron foundry consist of 15~20% CO2 as an air pollution gas whose emission should be mitigated in order to protect the environment. In the present study, ultrafine powders of NixZn1-xFe2O4 as a potential catalyst for the CO2 decomposition were prepared by the coprecipitation methods. Oxygen deficient ferrites (MeFe2O4-$\delta$) can decompose CO2 as C and O2 at a low temperature of about 30$0^{\circ}C$. The XRD result of synthesized ferrites showed the spinel structure of ferrites and ICP-AES and EDS quantitative analyses showed the composition similar with initial molar ratios of the mixed solution prior to reaction. The BET surface area of the (Ni, Zn)-ferrites was about 77~89.5$m^2$/g and their particle size was observed about 10~20 nm. The CO2 decomposition efficiency of the oxygen deficient (Nix, Zn1-x)-ferrites was the highest at x=0.3, and the ternary (Ni, Zn)-ferrites was better than that of binary Ni-ferrites.

1. 2014년도 우리나라 전체 폐기물 발생량은 146,607천 톤이며, 건설폐기물이 46.2%(67,644천 톤), 사업장 일반폐기물이 38.1%(55,914천 톤), 생활폐기물이 12.4%(18,219천 톤), 사업장 지정페기물이 3.3%(48,810천 톤)을 나타내고 있다. 2. 건설폐기물의 97.9%, 배출시설계 폐기물의 77.3%, 생활폐기물의 67.0%, 지정폐기물의 57.3%가 재활용되고 있다. 3. 2015년도 우리나라 시멘트산업에서 18,801천 톤의 순환자원을 재활용하였다. 폐기물이 6,136천 톤이고, 부산물이 12,665천 톤이다. 부산물은 11,000천톤이 제철슬래그이고, 1,600천 톤이 폐석고(탈황석고 중화석고)로 추정된다. 그리고 폐기물 6,136천 톤은 사업장 일반폐기물의 약 11.0%에 해당된다. 4. 시멘트 톤당 순환자원 사용량(재활용 원단위)은 일본이 400kg/톤 이상이고 우리나라는 300kg/톤 대를 나타내고 있다. 일본이 우리나라보다 재활용량/톤이 많은 이유를 다음에서 찾을 수 있다. (1) 고품위 석회석 원료 (2) 법 제도(지원금 포함) 5. 원료 대체율의 산출은 다음 두 산출방법으로 나타낼수 있다. (1) 이론적인 원료 상한 대체량에 대한 실제 원료 대체량 (2) 이론적인 원료 조합량에 대한 실제 원료 대체량 2015년도 우리날 전체 원료 대체량(17,770천 톤)은 (1)에 의한 대체율 : 71% (2)에 의한 대체율 : 27% 6. 자동차 슈레더 더스트(ASR)를 시멘트산업에서 자원화 하게끔 ASR처리의 보완 및 법적지원(지원금 포함)이 요망된다. 7. 부산물 및 폐기물의 자원화는 시멘트산업에서의 이용이 가장 우수한 장점을 갖추고 있다. 그러므로 시멘트산업에서 폐기물의 자원화를 적극 추진하게끔 제도의 보완 및 시설지원 등 정부의 대책수립이 간절하다.

주거지역 A와 주거지역 B의 PM10 평균농도 비교에서 산업지역과 인접한 주거지역 A에서 계절에 관계없이 26-32% 높은 농도를 나타내어 산업지역에 인접한 주거지역 A가 먼 주거지역 B 보다 PM10의 영향에 더 크게 노출된 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. PM10에 포함된 Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn 등의 무기성분은 대부분 인위적인 발생원과 관련성이 있는 대기 오염물질로, 인위적인 배출원의 영향정도를 파악하기 위하여 풍성계수 분석결과 높은 풍성계수를 나타내어 인위적인 오염원임을 확인 할 수 있었고, 그 평균농도는 주거지역 A가 주거지역 B 보다 높게 나타나 주거지역 A가 주거지역 B 보다 산업 오염원의 노출에 더 많은 영향을 받는 다는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 이들 무기화합물질의 상관성 분석결과 높은 상관성과 통계적인 유의성 (p<0.01)이 있었으며, 공통의 오염원을 추정 할 수 있었다. PM10의 가능한 오염원 기여도 평가에 있어서, 주거지역 A에서는 제철관련 오염원과 토양오염원의 공통 오염원 기여도가 33.4%로 나타나 산업관련 오염원의 기여도를 뚜렷하게 분리하여 평가하기는 곤란하였으나, 주거지역 B에서 토양관련 오염원의 독립적인 농도 기여도가 54%로 높게 나타났기 때문에, 상대적으로 산업지역과 인접한 주거지역 A에서 산업관련 오염원 기여도가 높은 것을 알 수 있었다.

This paper proposed the voltage compensation analysis method in distribution system by EMTP. SVC (Static Var Compensator) of the thyristor controlled reactor type is used for compensation system. EMTP(E1ectr-o Magnetic Transient Program) model of SVC is proposed to analysis the voltage improvement characteristics at the high voltage system bus. It is composed with three parts ; rms detector, voltage regulator and gate pulse generator. The control signal of TCR is determined by rms value which was measured in system. As the result of EMTP simulation, all of the SVC characteristics like TCR current, firing pulse and bus voltage is very reliable. This method could be used to analysis the planning and the operation of compensation system in the large scale factory.

In this paper, we describe a flow meter system for pulverized coal developed for the pulverizer-burner system of a boiler or blast furnace, which uses the density and the velocity of the granule flow. The granule flow density is measured by a sensor that detects the capacitance from the electrode on the surface of the piping system. The velocity of granule flow can be calculated using the distance between two pairs of built-in sensors in the flow direction, the time obtained from the sampling cycle using the correlation method between two waveforms of the sensors. The flow rate is calculated from the density and velocity of the granule flow. The reliability and accuracy of the flow meter system has been verified by comparing the data with the weight measured from a load-cell.
