본 연구에서는 기존의 고압으로 작동되는 고압 미분무 건과는 달리 Twin-Fluid의 Turbulence 및 Break-up 현상 등을 이용하여 저압상태에서 작동하며 경량화 및 소형화에 성공하여 기존 소방관의 진입이 어려운 장소 또는 수원으로부터 멀리 떨어진 곳에서 원활한 소화활동을 위해 개발한 저압용 미분무 건의 성능을 화재소화능력 시험을 통해 입증하였다. 화재 소화능력 시험을 수행한 결과 물과 질소가 Mixing Chmaber 내부에서 혼합되면서 두 유체간의 상호작용 및 운동 에너지으로 인해 물의 액적이 미세하게 Atomizing되어 목재화재는 물론 유류화재의 진압에 있어서도 우수한 성능을 확인할 수 있었다.

A soil enrichment LYF-1 culture from a contaminated site, which could reductively dechlorinate 900 $\mu$M (ca. 150 mg/L) of tetrachloroethylene (PCE) stoichimetrically into cis-1,2-dichloroethylene (cis-DCE), was established and characterized. The enrichment culture can use yeast extract, peptone, formate, acetate, lactate, pyruvate, citrate, succinate, glucose, sucrose, and ethanol as electron donors for dechlorination of PCE. Addition of NO$_2$$^{[-10]}$ and NO$_3$$^{[-10]}$ as alternative electron acceptors showed complete inhibition of PCE dechlorination, but S$_2$O$_3$$^{-2}$ , SO$_3$$^{-2}$ and SO$_4$$^{-2}$ had no significant effect on PCE dechlorination. The enrichment culture was attached to ceramic media in an anaerobic fixed-bed reactor. The fixed-bed reactor showed more than 99％ of PCE degradation in the range of PCE loading rate of 0.13-0.78 $\mu$moles/L/hr. The major end product of PCE dechlorination was cis-DCE.

포소화약제는 다양한 설비(이동식, 고정자동식), 대형의 유류화재 적합, 대량 연속적 생산가능 약제의 특수성 및 장기보관이 가능한 특징이 있어 이에 대한 개발 및 연구가 꾸준히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 포소화약제는 주변의 온도 및 환경에 따라 발포력의 변화가 큰 특징이 있어 실제 겨울철 소방 활동시에는 사용을 자제하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 사용온도에 따른 발포력 변화를 측정하며, 최적 발포율 도출을 위한 온도에 따른 적정 혼합율을 산정한다. 실험은 한국 소방산업기술원의 "포소화약제의 형식승인 및 검정기술기준(KOFEIS 0103)"에서 제시하고 있는 표준 발포기를 이용 측정하며, $5{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 혼합률에 따른 발포력 변화를 측정하였다.

To prevent ozone depletion caused by CFCs, the replacement of Halon with clean agents has been developed in the fire protection field along with refrigerants, detergents, and foaming agents. The alternatives for Halon 1211 have been developed in the portable fire extinguisher area and HCFC-123 is used widely as a clean fire extinguishing agent. The type of expellant gas is important because their own vapor pressure is low. In this study, HCFC-123, HCFC-124, HFC-125, and Novec-1230 were selected as fire extinguishing agents and CO₂, which is expected to improve the fire extinguishing ability, was chosen as the expellant gas. For each agent, experiments changing the agent and CO₂ amount were carried out and HCFC-123 showed a good result, as expected. The extinguisher, HCFC-123 of 1.5 kg, showed the same ability to suppress a class A and B fire as the extinguisher, HCFC-123 of 2.5 kg, which is currently sold on the market. According to this result, the expellant gas has a subsidiary fire extinguish effect. This can reduce the amount of HCFC fire extinguishing agent, which is categorized in the phase-out alternatives, and is a more eco-friendly and economical fire extinguisher than the previous one. This study can also help solve the problems of CO₂ fire extinguishers for class B and C fires, and can be used to extinguish electric and electron facilities fire, which contains large amounts of class A fire combustibles.

In this study, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was treated with changing mixing ratios of $F_2$ and $O_2$ using oxyfluorination method for hydrophilic modification of PMMA film. For the characterizations of oxyfluorinated PMMA surface, contact angle, surface free energy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and optical transmittance (UV-vis) were carried out. After the oxyfluorination, PMMA surface became more hydrophilic showing the decrease of water contact angle from $69^{\circ}$ to $44^{\circ}$. So, surface free energy of oxyfluorinated PMMA film was increased from 46 to $58\;mN\;m^{-1}$. These results are attributed to hydrophilic functional groups such as hydroxyl group formed oxyfluorination method on the PMMA surface. From XPS results, it was confirmed that O/C concentration ratio on the surface of PMMA was increased, the amount of C-OH bonding which shows hydrophilicity was also largely increased from 6.7 to 24.8% with increasing fluorine partial-pressure via the oxyfluorination, The oxyfluorination conditions, room temperature, 1 bar with one mixture ratio of $F_2$ to $O_2$ had little influence on optical transmittance properties of PMMA film but enhanced its surface hydrophilicity. This result suggests that oxyfluorination method could be useful to change hydrophobic PMMA surface to hydrophilic.

Objective of this study was to investigate the effect of biogas production to different systems and feeding stocks. For the biogas production through operating the temperature phase anaerobic digestion(TPAD) with different feeding stocks, the stage state of biogas production with 70% of methane concentration in the thermophilic digestion tank with co-digestion of food waste and swine manure(40 : 60) was delayed at 3.5 times, but its mesophilic tank was short for 5 days as relative to the swine manure. The cumulative methane production in the thermophilic digestion tank with co-digestion of food waste and swine manure was started with greater than its swine manure at 60 days after digestion periods. However, its mesophilic tank with swine manure was great at 3 days after digestion periods. For aspect of anaerobic digestion processes with swine manure, it was appeared that the stage state of biogas production rate in TPAD was shorter than the two phase anaerobic digestion system.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effective pretreatment of foodwaste for the anaerobic digestion. Considering the foodwaste generation and the anaerobic digester for municipal wastewater sludges, the some pretreatment processes were performed such as the grinding of foodwastes with the addition of water, the mixing with sludges, and the hydrolysis with the addition of NaOH. The results were as followings ; 1. As the stage of feasibility test in laboratory scale, the foodwaste grinding using a household garbage disposer was performed with three different water mixing ratios of 1:1, 1:5 and 1:9 as weight base. The physicochemical characteristics of grinded foodwaste were analyzed and the effective conditions was recommended as the 1 :5mixing ratio of foodwaste and water and the below 8mm particle size. 2. And the mixing of foodwaste and municipal wastewater sludge was studied with three different mixing ratios of 1:9, 3:7 and 5:5 as weight base. The physicochemical characteristics of the mixed foodwaste and sludges were analyzed and the effective mixing ratio was recommended as 3:7 of foodwaste and sludge.

Low pressure combustion characteristics of the composite solid propellants were studied in terms of the propellant burning rate, ignition processes, and the structure of the extinguished surfaces. Optical Vacuum Strand Burner(OVSB) system was designed and configured for this purpose. Burning rates of the propellants were measured at subatmospheric pressure by developed test method in OVSB. The ignition and combustion phenomena of the studied propellants in the combustion chamber of OVSB were recorded and analyzed with the camera and VCR(30 frames/s). Burning surfaces of the propellants were extinguished by rapid depressurization method and analyzed with Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM).

This study was conducted to investigate the nutritional value of germinated barley with animal experiment. Fourthyeight weanling albino rats, which were divided into 8 groups, were fed during 4 weeks. The feed intake, energy intake, FER (feed efficiency ratio) and growth rate were slightly high in the casein supplemented groups and were significantly high in the rice and casein supplemented groups. But there was no a significant difference between the barley and germinated barley groups. A higher PER (protein efficiency ratio) was shown in the rice and casein supplemented groups. It was induced that mixed cereal protein increase the PER compared to simple cereal protein. Low apparent digestibility of the diet and of the protein were found in barley and germinated barley groups compared to standard and rice groups. But apparent digestibility of protein in germinated barley groups were markedly increased by the supplementation of 5% casein or supplementation of rice and casein. From this result it was concluded that germinated barley has a nutritional effect on increasing protein digestibility when added enough amount of animal protein.
