Recent focus on wastewater treatment includes energy-saving and renewable energy generation for energy-independence of water infrastructures. Aeration and pumping in biological wastewater removal processes account for nearly 30-60% of the total electricity cost in real wastewater treatment plants. In this study, the performance and microbial characteristics were investigated in sequencing batch reactor under typical oxygen and oxygen limited condition. Under typical DO ($7.55{\pm}0.99mg/L$) and low DO ($0.23{\pm}0.08mg/L$) conditions, COD removal was stable over 91 % during SBR operation. Ammonia removal efficiency was reduced from 95.6 % to 89.2 % when DO concentration was dropped sharply. Phosphorus removal efficiency also reached 77% at oxygen-limited condition. The results indicated that removal efficiency both ammonia and phosphorus was influenced by DO condition. Microbial analysis revealed that Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes at phylum level was dominant in typical DO and low DO conditions and DO concentration did not much affect phylum distribution. Population decrease of genera of nitrifying bacteria(Dokdonella) and Dechloromonas spp. affect removal efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus at low DO condition.

The unequivocal risk of climate change, the weakness of energy security, and the problem of air quality will be possibly accelerated by the same reason, the enhanced fossil fuel dependancy in the future. It is obvious that greenhouse gases and air pollutants are mainly emitted from same sources. Moreover, greenhouse gases and air pollutants have their adversed impacts on same socio-economical, and environmental sectors. With these regards, several but limited studies have emphasized on the importance of the integrated management of climate change and air quality problem. In this study, we address the current trend of energy consumption and the change of air quality condition. Also the related policies are checked out in order to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants in Korea. By surveying previous studies, it is shown that the cost of climate change actions can be reduced by air quality co-benefits and vis-a-versa. Also the integrated strategy for climate change and air quality is introduced in term of cost-effectiveness and co-benefit.

To investigate allowable peak cladding temperature and hoop stress for maintenance of cladding integrity during interim-dry storage and subsequent transport, zirconium alloy cladding tubes were hydrogen-charged to generate 250 ppm and 500 ppm hydrogen contents, simulating spent nuclear fuel degradation. The hydrogen-charged specimens were heated to four peak temperatures of $250^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$, $350^{\circ}C$, and $400^{\circ}C$, and then cooled to room temperature at cooling rates of $0.3^{\circ}C/min$ under three tensile hoop stresses of 80 MPa, 100 MPa, and 120 MPa. The cool-down specimens showed that high peak heat-up temperature led to lower hydrogen content and that larger tensile hoop stress generated larger radial hydride fraction and consequently lower plastic elongation. Based on these out-of-pile cladding tube test results only, it may be said that peak cladding temperature should be limited to a level < $250^{\circ}C$, regardless of the cladding hoop stress, to ensure cladding integrity during interim-dry storage and subsequent transport.

This paper uses dynamic computer simulation techniques to develop and apply a multi-criteria procedure using non-destructive vibration-based parameters for damage assessment in truss bridges. In addition to changes in natural frequencies, this procedure incorporates two parameters, namely the modal flexibility and the modal strain energy. Using the numerically simulated modal data obtained through finite element analysis of the healthy and damaged bridge models, algorithms based on modal flexibility and modal strain energy changes before and after damage are obtained and used as the indices for the assessment of structural health state. The application of the two proposed parameters to truss-type structures is limited in the literature. The proposed multi-criteria based damage assessment procedure is therefore developed and applied to truss bridges. The application of the approach is demonstrated through numerical simulation studies of a single-span simply supported truss bridge with eight damage scenarios corresponding to different types of deck and truss damage. Results show that the proposed multi-criteria method is effective in damage assessment in this type of bridge superstructure.

Energy harvesting is a clean technology to obtain energy from the surrounding environment such as wind, sun, vibration and so on. In particular, the current TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring Device) is very small and attached to the outside of a vehicle and power supply of the TPMS is limited. Therefore, energy harvesting using vibration energy of piezoelectric materials is important to the TPMS. In this paper, we analyzed several models using ANSYS which is one of the FEA (Finite Element Analysis) package and compared corresponding strain frequency response functions of the TPMS. In addition, we confirmed that dynamic characteristics variations according to geometry changes have effects on the performance of the TPMS.

Energy-harvesting wireless sensor networks(EH-WSNs) can collect energy from the environment and overcome the technical limitations of existing power. Since the transmission distance in a wireless sensor network is limited, the data are delivered to the destination node through multi-hop routing. In EH-WSNs, the routing protocol should consider the power situations of nodes, which is determined by the remaining power and energy-harvesting rate. In addition, in applications such as environmental monitoring, when there are urgent data, the routing protocol should be able to transmit it stably and quickly. This paper proposes an adaptive routing protocol that satisfies different requirements of normal and urgent data. To extend network lifetime, the proposed routing protocol reduces power imbalance for normal data and also minimizes transmission latency by controlling the transmission power for urgent data. Simulation results show that the proposed adaptive routing can improve network lifetime by mitigating the power imbalance and greatly reduce the transmission delay of urgent data.

무선 네트워크는 한정된 배터리 전원에 의존하는 이동 휴대 기기를 사용하기 때문에 무선 통신 프로토콜을 설계하는데 있어서 에너지 효율에 대한 고려가 필요하게 되었다. 무선 환경에서 대표적인 TCP 성능 향상 연구 중에 하나인 TCP-Westwood는 ACK를 이용한 샘플링 기법으로 가용 대역폭을 측정한다. 측정한 가용 대역폭을 이용해서 효과적인 데이타 전송을 할 수 있다는 장점을 갖는 반면에, TCP-Westwood 송신단이 무선 구간에 있을 경우에 대한 고려가 미흡하다. 본 논문에서는 TCP-Westwood의 송신단이 무선 구간에 있을 경우에 발생하는 문제점을 보완하기 위해서 새로운 전송 프로토콜인 E2TP(Energy Efficient Transport Protocol)를 제안한다. 제안한 E2TP는 패킷 손실이 발생할 경우에는 일시적인 전송 단위 조절을 이용한 재전송 방법을 사용하여 보다 효과적인 데이타 전송을 수행한다. E2TP의 성능을 검증하기 위한 실험 결과, E2TP가 전송률 및 에너지 효율 측면에서 TCP와 TCP-Westwood보다 성능이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

실내실험과 현장관측을 통해서 용존태무기질소(dissolved inorganic nitrogen; DIN) 제한 하에서 유독와편모조류 Alexandrium tamarense와 A. catenella의 생존과 우점화 전략을 살펴보았다. 현장관측결과 마산만에서 Alexandrium 속이 출현하는 기간동안 DIN이 식물플랑크톤의 성장 제한영양염으로 나타났다. 성장동력학 실험으로부터 도출된 질산염의 Ks값은 현장에서 우점하는 규조류보다 A. tamarense와 A. catenella가 높아, 영양염 경쟁에 있어 불리한 위치에 있는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 A. tamarense와 A. catenella는 DIN 제한하에서 요소나 아미노산과 같은 용존유기질소 (dissolved organic nitrogen; DON) 화합물을 성장에 이용하였다. 따라서 마산만과 같이 Alexandrium 속이 출현하는 봄~여름까지 DIN이 제한영양염으로 작용하는 환경에서 DON의 흡수능력은 이들 종이 성장을 유지하는데 큰 역할을 할 뿐만 아니라 종의 우점과정 및 종간 경쟁에서도 중요한 영향을 줄 것으로 보인다.
