In this paper, we investigate the main components of stray load loss of induction motors for ammonia compressors. The variations of the losses at each part of the motor due to load are calculated by the combined 3-D-2D finite element method formulated by the mixed moving coordinate systems. The stray load loss is calculated from these results due the definition of IEEE standard-112. It is clarified that the core loss and the eddy current loss of the can increase due to load, which can be considered as the main part of the stray load loss.

It has widely been observed that the effect of elevating atmospheric $CO_2$ concentrations on rice productivity depends largely on soil N availabilities. However, the responses of ammonia volatilization from flooded paddy soil that is an important pathway of N loss and thus affecting fertilizer N availability to concomitant increases in atmospheric $CO_2$ and temperature has rarely been studied. In this paper, we first report the interactive effect of elevated $CO_2$ and temperature on ammonia volatilization from rice paddy soils applied with urea. Urea labeled with $^{15}N$ was used to quantitatively estimate the contribution of applied urea-N to total ammonia volatilization. This study was conducted using Temperature Gradient Chambers (TGCs) with two $CO_2$ levels [ambient $CO_2$ (AC), 383 ppmv and elevated $CO_2$ (EC), 645 ppmv] as whole-plot treatment (main treatment) and two temperature levels [ambient temperature (AT), $25.7^{\circ}C$ and elevated temperature (ET), $27.8^{\circ}C$] as split-plot treatments (sub-treatment) with triplicates. Elevated temperature increased ammonia volatilization probably due to a shift of chemical equilibrium toward $NH_3$ production via enhanced hydrolysis of urea to $NH_3$ of which rate is dependent on temperature. Meanwhile, elevated $CO_2$ decreased ammonia volatilization and that could be attributed to increased rhizosphere biomass that assimilates $NH_4^+$ otherwise being lost via volatilization. Such opposite effects of elevated temperature and $CO_2$ resulted in the accumulated amount of ammonia volatilization in the order of ACET>ACAT>ECET>ECAT. The pattern of ammonia volatilization from applied urea-$^{15}N$ as affected by treatments was very similar to that of total ammonia volatilization. Our results suggest that elevated $CO_2$ has the potential to decrease ammonia volatilization from paddy soils applied with urea, but the effect could partially be offset when air temperature rises concomitantly.

영남지역 식질논에서 벼를 건답직파하여 재배하면서 완효성질소비료인 LCU를 표준시비량의 80%와 100% 수준으로 시용시 관행 요소 대비 암모니아 휘산의 경감효과를 검토하였다. 토양 $NH_4-N$ 농도는 파종 후 45일경에 가장 높았는데 LCU 처리구에서는 $92-100mg\;kg^{-1}$, 요소 시용구에서는 $73mg\;kg^{-1}$였으며, 전 생육기간동안 요소 시용에 비해 LCU 처리구가 높았다. 토양 $NO_3-N$의 농도는 모든 처리에서 파종 후 10일경에 가장 높았는데 LCU 처리구는 $30-33mg\;kg^{-1}$, 요소 시 용구는 $27mg\;kg^{-1}$였고, 건답기간동안 높게 유지되다가 담수 후 낮아져 파종 후 80일경 이후에는 모든 처리에서 $1-2mg\;kg^{-1}$로 처리간에 차이가 없었다. 표면수의 $NH_4-N$ 농도는 요소시용구에서는 추비 후 $NH_4-N$ 농도가 $8-10mg\;L^{-1}$로 일시적으로 상승하였으나, LCU 처리구에서는 생육기간동안 $1mg\;L^{-1}$이하였다. 표면수의 pH는 담수 후 생육기간동안 요소 및 LCU 처리에서 7.5-8.3 였으나 요수구의 pH가 다소 높게 유지되었다. 요소 시용구에서의 암모니아 휘산량은 추비 시용 후 급격히 증가하였고, 시비질소에 대한 총 휘산량은 $8.7-11.8kg\;N\;ha^{-1}$ 이었다. 한편 LCU 시용에 따른 암모니아 휘산량은 LCU의 시비량에 관계없이 $2.4-3.0kg\;N\;ha^{-1}$였으며, 연차간의 변이도 요소에 비해 매우 적었다. 따라서 벼 건답직파재배에서 LCU 시용시 암모니아 휘산량은 요소 시용에 비해 72-76% 경감되었다.

Ammonia loss from urea significantly hinders efficient use of urea in agriculture. The level of nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) a long-lived greenhouse gas in atmosphere has increased mainly due to anthropogenic source, especially application of nitrogen fertilizers. There are reports in the literature showing that the addition of zeolite to N sources can improve the nitrogen use efficiency. This study was conducted to evaluate nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) and ammonia ($NH_3$) emission by mixed treatment of urea and zeolite in upland crop field. Urea fertilizer and zeolite were applied at different rates to study their effect on $N_2O$ emission during red pepper cultivation in upland soils. The $N_2O$ gas was collected by static closed chamber method and measured by gas chromatography. Ammonia concentration was analyzed by closed-dynamic air flow system method. The total $N_2O$ flux increased in proportion to the level of N application. Emission of $N_2O$ from the field increased from the plots applied with urea-zeolite mixture compared to urea alone. But urea-zeolite mixture treatment reduced about 30% of $NH_3$-N volatilization amounts. These results showed that the application of urea and zeolite mixture had a positive influence on reduction of $NH_3$ volatilization, but led to the increase in $N_2O$ emission in upland soils.

Ammonia ($NH_3$) volatilization from a silty clay loam paddy soil applied with non, straight urea, and coated urea, respectively, under transplanting in Milyang, Korea from 2002 and 2003 was simulated by a Water and Nitrogen Management Model (WNMM). Based on the data from the in-situ measurements, $NH_3$ volatilization during the rice growth was 6.04% and 1.46% of the applied nitrogen (N) from straight urea and coated urea, respectively. The bulk aerodynamic approach in WNMM satisfactorily predicted the difference in $NH_3$ loss during the given rice growing seasons from the two urea fertilizers. $R^2$ for the correlation between the predicted and observed NH3 loss during the calibration year (2002) was 0.53 less than 0.68 of the application year (2003). This difference could be due to the weather condition such as heavy rainfall and temperature during the calibration year.

This study was carried out for 30 days in aeration type and agitation type reactor to characterize organic matter decomposition and ammonia volatilization during the liquid composting of pig slurry, and organic matter and nitrogen removal rate through mass balance analysis was analyzed. In the aeration type reactor, the pH increased from 7.0 to 9.13, and TS 34.5%, VS 33.4%, $BOD_5$ 71.2%, $COD_{Cr}$ 62.3% and TOC 83.2% were removed. In addition, 44.6% of TN and 65.0% of ${NH_4}^+-N$ were removed. In the agitation type reactor, the pH increased from 7.0 to 8.10, and the removal rates of TS 0.9%, VS 0.5%, $COD_{Cr}$ 27.5%, $BOD_5$ 28.9% and TOC 41.3% were obtained. And TN and ${NH_4}^+-N$ showed removal rate of 25.3% and 29.2%, respectively. The first order kinetics constant related to $BOD_5$ degradation was $-0.039day^{-1}$ for aerobic liquid composting and $-0.013day^{-1}$ for agitated reactor. Nitrogen loss in aerobic liquid composting was about 2.3 times higher than that of agitated reactor, whereas FAN/TAN in aerobic liquid composting was about 7.9 times higher than that of agitation type reactor. Therefore, despite the low FAN/TAN in the agitation type reactor, the nitrogen loss rate was relatively high.

Gallium Nitride (GaN) powders were synthesized by calcining a gallium(III) sulfate salt in flowing ammonia in the temperature range 500-1100$^{\circ}C$. The process of conversion of the salt to GaN was monitored by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The salt decomposed to ${\gamma}$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ and then converted to GaN without ${\gamma}$-${\beta}$Ga$_2$O$_3$ phase transition. Variations in XRD patterns and weight loss of samples with temperature indicate that the conversion of ${\gamma}$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ to GaN does not proceed through Ga$_2$O but stepwise via amorphous gallium oxynitride (GaO$\_$x/N$\_$y/) as intermediates. Room-temperature photoluminescence spectra of GaN powders obtained showed the emission peak at 363 nm and no yellow band.

Urea, the major N source of world agriculture involves a serious urea-N loss through NH$_3$volatilization. Approaches to decrease N loss include using urease inhibitors in view of the environmental protection and the increase of urea-N efficiency. The purpose of laboratory researches was toassess the potential value of urease inhibitors to increase urea-N efficiency in soil and Kentucky blue-grass(Poa Pratensis L.) turf. The activity of urease inhibitors Phenyiphosphorodiamjdate(ppD) and N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamjde(NBPT) measured to break-down ammonia volatilization. The soil and turf used in this project were from the fairway in one of the Korean gof course. The researches were carried out for two weeks to measure the urease activities on urea hydrolysis under four temperatures (10~ 40$^{\circ}C$) and for one week on turfgrass using forced-draft system. Results indicated that Urea-N involves considerable loss through gaseous NH$_3$ by urease activities in plant-soil systems. Urease inhibitors PPD and NBPT have potential value for increasing N use efficiency by reduing NH$_3$ volatilization. NBPT deserves futher evaluation as fertilizer amendment than PPD use of urea in turf industries.

BACKGROUND: Composting is the most frequently used waste management process for animal manure in Korea's livestock industry. In the composting process, a large amount of nitrogen (N) is volatilized to the atmosphere as amonia ($NH_3$). However, quantitative information of $NH_3$ emission from composting of liquid manure is required to obtain emission factors for management of livestock manure in Korea. METHODS AND RESULTS: To evaluate the $NH_3$ emission from composting of liquid manure affected by aeration, we conducted composting of liquid pig manure with three forced aeration systems. The aeration conditions were continuous (A60), cycle of 30 min aeration and 30 min pause (A30S30) and without aeration(A0). All treatments were aerated 12 hour per day with these aeration systems. The total ratio of $NH_3$ volatilization loss to total N content in liquid manure throughout composting period was estimated to 19.9% for A0 treatment, 25.9% for A30S30 treatment and 36.3% for A60 treatment. The A30S30 and A60 aeration systems increased $NH_3$ volatilization by 30.2 and 82.3% compared with systems without forced aeration. CONCLUSION(S): Ammonia emission during liquid pig manure composting was highly affected by forced aeration. The development of liquid pig manure composting systems with forced aeration would be considered both reducing ammonia emission and efficiency of composting.

건답(乾畓) 직파(直播) 재배(栽培) 논에서 건답(乾畓) 초기(初期)에 표면(表面) 시용(施用)된 요소(尿素)의 암모니아 휘산량(揮散量)을 알아내고, 이를 억제(抑制)하기 위하여 인산(燐酸) 입힌 요소(尿素)의 사용(使用) 효과(效果)를 검토(檢討)하였다. 인산(燐酸)입힌 요소(尿素)는 요소(尿素) 94.5%, 인산(燐酸) 5%, 그리고 silica powder 0.5% 비율로 섞어 조제하였다. 토양(土壤) 수분(水分)이 다른 상태로 조절한 토양(土壤)에 요소(尿素), 인산(燐酸) 입힌 요소(尿素) 및 urease 활성 억제제인 thio urea 5%를 처리하여 실험실 내에서 요소(尿素) 가수 분해율(分解率)을 조사하였다. 건답(乾畓) 직파(直播) 포장(圃場)에서의 암모니아 휘산량(揮散量)을 측정하기 위하여 직경22.5cm 높이 40cm인 아크릴 원통을 이용하여 인산(燐酸)과 giycerol 암모니아 포집포를 설치하여 암모니아 휘산량(揮散量)을 조사하였다. 실내 실험 결과 포장용수량(圃場容水量) 상태에서 요소(尿素) 첨가 후 3일만에 요소(尿素) 잔존률이 39.6%로 떨어졌고, 1주일 후에는 대부분의 요소(尿素)가 가수(加水) 분해 되었다. Thiourea의 사용에 의하여 가수분해(加水分解) 억제 효과가 있었다. 인산(燐酸) 입힌 요소(尿素)를 첨가한 경우 3일만의 요소(尿素) 잔존률은 높았으나, 7일 후에는 요소(尿素) 첨가와 비슷해졌다. 토양수분(土壤水分) 함량이 포장용수량(圃場容水量) 이상으로 충분한 조건에서는 요소(尿素) 및 인산(燐酸) 입힌 요소(尿素) 첨가 1주일 후의 가수분해율(加水分解率)은 97~98%로 차이가 없었고 thiourea 사용 효과만 있었다. 비교적 건조한 상태인 300KPa 수분(水分) 상태에서는 습윤한 상태 보다 가수(加水) 분해율(分解率)이 낮았으며, 인산(燐酸) 입힌 요소(尿素)와 thiourea 첨가 요소(尿素)의 가수분해율(加水分解率)은 요소(尿素) 사용에 비해 낮았다. 건답(乾畓) 직파(直播) 논에서 포장(圃場) 시험한 결과 담수 전인 건답(乾畓)상태에서 요소(尿素) 시용구에서는 시용 질소(窒素)의 14.7%가 암모니아로 휘산(揮散)되어 손실되었으며, 인산(燐酸) 입힌 요소(尿素)와 인산(燐酸)과 magnesium phosphate를 입힌 완효성(緩效性) 비료(肥料)의 암모니아 휘산률(揮散率)은 2~4%로 매우 낮았다. 한편 축산분(畜産糞) 유기질(有機質) 비료(肥料)를 사용한 구에서의 암모니아 휘산량(揮散量) 역시 많았다.
