One of the problem areas in designing a barge is its resistance and corese stability when it is towed by a tugboat. In this paper, as a part of design of a incinerating vessel, the results of some experimental studies on the effect of various kinds of anti-yawing skegs to the course keeping stability and on the additional resistance caused by them were summarized.

Due to separate discharge of food waste, large incinerating facilities for municipal waste show the phase change that combustible contents have been increasing while the concentrations of water have been decreasing when wastes are brought in. This phase change of wastes leads to the increase of exothermic value when wastes are carried in, which causes the problems to make the durability of incinerating facilities weak and lower the capacities of them. In accordance with these problems, this study was carried out to present effective plans to operate incinerating facilities as the quantities of municipal wastes of Incheon have been gradually increasing. We examined the problems caused by the phase change of municipal waste in Incheon and managing plans to control the amounts of heat output when intermixed incineration of food waste is conducted. It is concluded that we could carry out the optimized operation of incinerating facilities as well as produce economic effect to reduce processing costs when we conduct the intermixed incineration of food waste and municipal waste, in the trend that the amounts of heat output generated by wastes are gradually increasing. This is because this operation of intermixing incineration contributes to reducing the amount of exothermic heat.

In the present paper, a hull form for the turtle boat type incinerating vessel was developed based on the Finite source Distribution Method(FDM) and 1-$C_p$ method. In order to obtain proper hull form within the limited time and budget, a computer program OCL(Optimization of $C_p$ and LCB) was developed adn used. For the confirmation of the theoretical results by OCL, these theoretical results were compared with results of model test in the circulating water channel (CWC)in Chosun University.

Hospital waste incinerating workers are exposed to various pyrolysis products including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PARs). We evaluated their exposure by assessing urinary 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide (1-OHPG), as internal dose of PAH exposure. The potential effect of genetic polymorphisms of GSTM1/T1 involved in PAH metabolisms was also investigated.(omitted)

This study has been performed to develop an agricultural waste incinerator to combust the rice hull originated from RPC with the typical disposal treatment capacity of 30kg/h and to test performance of the developed incinerator. Experimental results are summarized as following. 1. The optimum feed rate of rice hull of the incinerator is 30kg/h with air ratio of 1.5. 2. The contents of $SO_2$ in flue gas is maximum 18ppm(when rice hull feed rate was 20kg/h and air ratio of 1.5), minimum 7ppm(when rice hull feed rate was 30kg/h and air ratio of 1.5) and average 11ppm. So there is no environmental pollution problem for the incinerating treatment of rice hull of the RPC. 3. The temperature of water of heat exchanger are $53^{circ} C$ and $62^{circ} C$ with water flow rate $3{ell}/min$ and $1.5{ell}/min$ at the optimum combustion condition, respectively. 4. According to theoretical energy calculation, the energy from rice hull combustion may be amounted as much as 80%~190% of energy supplied by kerosene required by RPC.

In these days, the pollution of marine environment near island at Korean coastal zone caused by the trash, human waste and livestocks excreta become series problem. One of the most economic and efficient way to prevent this pollution problem is to set up island circulating incineration system. In this paper, the results of feasibility study on the application of turtle boat hull form to the incinearting vessel has been summarized especially for the resistance and course keeping point of view.

The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of an experimental protective clothing material with regard to comfort and isolation from the hazardous heavy metals produced in municipal waste incineration. An analysis was conducted on the total concentrations of heavy metals in some parts such as surface, middle layer, and interior for the treated fabric, and the untreated one, and working clothes. We conclude that the processed fabric with charcoal for working clothes showed the least exposure to heavy metals of the three. Working clothes worn by workers during waste incineration were much more contaminated than the untreated and treated materials. The material of working clothes could be chosen according to the function with regard to its original chemical characteristics, which are the proper results of the dyeing process. The processed fabric material has high degrees of moisture regain, thermal insulation, water vapor penetration, and antibacterial function; consequently, it is much more comfortable to wear. The fabric material proposed in this research contributed much more to blocking heavy metal concentrations (such as Cd, Pb, Cu, Cr, Zn, Mn) than did the fabric of working clothes at present. Consequently, we strongly suggest that the material of working clothes be upgraded by adopting the above-mentioned charcoal-processed fabric. Materials of working clothes must be improved to increase comfort and prevent harmful gas, flying dust, and heavy metals from permeating the fabrics.

We have closely examined the concentration change characteristics, emission amounts, and the material balance of hazardous air pollutants at both early and later stages of the prevention facilities. These results will be uses as the basic data when preparing for the regulatory and management plans for hazardous air pollutants. The results of the study on heavy metals illustrated that the content of heavy metals in sludge across five facilities were as follows: copper> zinc> chrome> nickel> cadmium> mercury. In terms of heavy metal content in swage sludge, the sludge in incinerating facilities other than the sludge in the D incinerating facility containing industrial water waste, was examined in order to satisfy the ocean contamination standard and fertilizer specifications. Most of the items were shown to have satisfied the emission tolerance standards in the latter part of the prevention facilities(The average elimination rate was over 90%). Therefore, it is concluded that swage sludge containing high-concentrate heavy metals needs to be incinerated rather than recycled as fertilizer.
