본 연구에서는 하수 슬러지 및 음폐수의 효율적인 병합처리를 위해 고온호기 전처리의 적용가능성을 알아보고자 고온호기-중온혐기 연계공정의 소화효율과 메탄가스 생성량에 미치는 영향을 비교 검증하였다. 또한, 유기물 부하량 증가에 따른 공정 내 변화 양상을 관찰하기 위해 실험실 규모의 고온호기-중온혐기 소화장치를 제작하여 음폐수를 증류수로 희석하는 비율을 1/3 (Run I), 2/3 (Run II) 및 원액(Run III)으로 줄여가며 혐기소화 공정 내 변화 양상을 관찰하였다. 실험 결과 별도의 pH 조절 없이 고온호기-중온혐기 연계공정 소화조 내에서 pH가 7~8으로 안정하게 유지됨을 알 수 있었다. Volatile solid (VS)는 순응 기간 후 고온호기-중온혐기 연계공정에서 52.24% (Run I), 66.59% (Run II) 및 72.53% (Run III)의 제거효율을 보이며, 중온혐기 소화조(R3)에 비교하여 높은 VS 제거율을 보였다. 또한, 고온호기-중온혐기(R1-R2) 연계공정에서 약 1.6배 향상된 메탄 생성률이 관찰되었으며, 메탄수율의 경우에도 고온호기-중온혐기(R1-R2) 연계공정에서 현저하게 높은 값을 유지하였다.

제지슬러지의 메탄발효 효율을 높이기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 중온($35^{\circ}C$)과 고온($60^{\circ}C$) 메탄발효를 실시하였으며, 발효 촉진제로 기질(ethyl acetate), $F_{430}$의 구성성분(nickel), 생육인자 및 환원제(sulfur) 등의 화합물을 첨가한 후 메탄 생성 효율을 비교 조사하였다. 1. 제지슬러지를 단순히 $60^{\circ}C$로 가열해 주어도 섬유소가 분해됨을 간접적으로 확인하였으며, pH를 교정하기 위한 NaOH처리로 그 효과가 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 2. 중온($35^{\circ}C$) 메탄발효 가스중 40%의 메탄함량을 나타낸 처리구는 nickel trioxide(5일), nickel sulfate(10일), nickel acetate(15일) 순 이었다. 3. 중온에서의 메탄생성 효율은 대조구(0.62%), ethyl acetate(0.21%), nickel acetate(2.14%), nickel sulfate(3.02%), nickel trioxide(3.34%)로 대조구에 비하여 최고 5.4배까지 증가하였으며, nickel화합물에서는 acetate< sulfate< trioxide의 순으로 메탄발효를 촉진하였다. 4. 고온 메탄발효 가스중 40%의 메탄함량을 나타낸 처리구는 nickel trioxide(3일), 혼합(5일), sodium sulfide(6일), 대조구(10일)의 순이었다. 5. 고온에서의 메탄생성 효율은 대조구(9.6%), ethyl acetate(4.8%), sodium sulfide(16.5%), nickel trioxide(19.8%), 혼합(31.9%) 처리구순으로 대조구에 비하여 최고 3.32배의 보다 높은 효율을 보여 주었으며, 중온 보다는 약 10배의 높은 효율을 나타내었다. 6. 중온과 고온 메탄발효후 pH는 메탄발효가 잘 진행된 발효조는 7.0($60^{\circ}C$, 혼합처리구)이었으나, 진행되지 못한 발효조($35^{\circ}C$, ethyl acetate)에서는 5.4로 나타났다. 7. 메탄발효폐액의 특성은 메탄발효가 잘 진행된 폐액의 COD 값이 컸으며, 전질소 함량은 낮았고, pH는 중성을 유지하였다.

Studies for improving the efficiency of the traditional anaerobic digestion process are being actively conducted. To improve anaerobic digestion efficiency, this study tried to derive the optimal pretreatment conditions and mixing conditions by integrating the heat solubilization pretreatment of sewage sludge, livestock manure, and food waste. The soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) increase rate of sewage sludge before and after heat solubilization pretreatment showed an increased rate of 224.7% compared to the control group at 170℃ and 25 min and showed the most stable increase rate. As a result of the biomethane potential test of sewage sludge before and after heat solubilization pretreatment, the total chemical oxygen demand (TCOD) and SCOD removal rates increased as the heat solubilization temperature increased, but did not increase further at temperatures above 170℃. In the case of methane generation, there was no significant change in the cumulative methane generation from 0.134 to 0.203 Sm³-CH₄/kg-COD at 170℃ for 15 min. As a result of the integrated digestion of organic waste, the experimental condition in which 25% of the sewage sludge, 50% of the food waste, and 25% of the livestock manure were mixed showed the highest methane production of 0.3015 m³-CH₄/kg-COD, confirming that it was the optimal mixing ratio condition. In addition, under experimental conditions mixed with all three substrates, M4 conditions mixed with 25% sewage sludge, 50% food waste, and 25% livestock manure showed the highest methane generation at 0.2692 Sm³-CH₄/kg-COD.

Perlite와 tobermolite 담체를 각각 상 하단(바이오필터 A) 또는 하 상단(바이오필터 B)으로 충전한 상향식 바이오필터에서 상하단의 메탄산화 특성을 비교하였다. 각 바이오필터에서 상단과 하단 담체를 채취하여 메탄산화속도를 측정하고, 정량적 real time PCR 방법을 이용하여 메탄산화세균수를 정량분석 하였다. 혼합담체의 층적배열 차이에 따른 각 담체의 순수 메탄산화속도를 조사한 결과, biofilter A perlite 상단이 $845.16{\pm}64.78{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$로 tobermolite 하단 $381.85{\pm}42.00{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$에 비하여 상대적으로 높았다(p < 0.005). 또한, biofilter B tobermolite의 상단($601.25{\pm}37.78{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$)이 perlite 하단($411.07{\pm}53.02{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$)에 비하여 메탄산화속도가 높았다(p < 0.005). 바이오필터 A는 상단(1.27E+13 pmoA gene copy number/mg-VSS)보다는 하단(3.33E+13 pmoA gene copy number/mg-VSS) (p < 0.05)에 더 많은 메탄 산화 세균이 존재하였다. 그러나, 바이오필터 B는 상단과 하단간의 메탄 산화 세균수의 차이는 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다(p > 0.05). Perlite와 tobermolite로 충진된 각 담체의 순수 메탄산화속도는 상단부에 위치한 담체들이 높았음에도 불구하고 바이오필터내에서 메탄농도 감소폭이 컸던 하단부에서 메탄산화세균이 많이 존재하였다.

Propagation rates ($U_{edge}$) of various premixed, twin edge-flames were measured as a function of global strain rate ($\sigma$), mixture strength, and Lewis number (Le). Using a counterflow slot-jet burner with electrical heaters at each end, both advancing (positive $U_{edge}$) and retreating (negative $U_{edge}$) edge-flames can be studied as they propagate along the long dimension of the burner. Experimental results are presented for premixed methane/air twin flames in terms of the effects of $\sigma$ on $U_{edge}$. Both low-$\sigma$ and high-$\sigma$ extinction limits were discovered for all mixtures tested. As a result, the domain of edge-flame stability was obtained in terms of heat loss factor and normalized flame thickness, and comparison with the numerical result of other researchers was also made. For low ($CH_4/O_2/CO_2$) and high ($C_3H_8$/air) Lewis number cases, propagation rates clearly show a strong dependence on Le.

In this paper it is investigated the roles of key elementary reactions for NO formation in methane-air one-dimensional premixed flame and counterflow diffusion flame, which were studied numerically by using NO kinetics and $C_{2}$ -chemistry complied by Miller and Bowman. The spatial distributions of the reaction rates of 9 main elementary reactions directly related to NO formation and destruction were calculated. Integration of the rates of all reactions in the NO formation across the flame yields the quantitative reaction path diagram, which shows clearly relative importance of each reaction path in NO formation and how it changes with the type and parameters of the flame. The results show that the thermal and Fenimore mechanisms are dominant respectively for learn and rich premixed flames, and the latter is dominant for diffusion flames. In addition, it was found that the HCN recycle route is important for diffusion flame, and that the routes of mutual transformation between NO and NO$^{2}$, and between NO and HNO do not contribute to the net NO formation.

Groundwater contamination by nitrate exceeding water quality criteria (10 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/L$) occurs frequently. Fumarate, acetate, formate, lactate, propionate, ethanol, methane and hydrogen gas were evaluated for their nitrate removal efficiencies and removal rates for in situ bioremediation of nitrate contaminated groundwater. Denitrification rate for each substrate was in the order of: fumarate > hydrogen > formate/lactate > ethanol > propionate > methanol > acetate. Microcosm studies were performed with fumarate and acetate. When fumarate was used as a substrate, nitrate was removed 100 percent with rate of 0.66 mmol/day while conversion rate from nitrate to nitrogen gas or another by-product was 87 percent. 42 mg of fumarate was needed to remove 30 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/L$. When using acetate as carbon source, 31 percent of nitrate was removed during initial adjustment period. Among removed fraction, however, 83 percent of nitrate removed by cell growth. Overall nitrate removal rate was 0.37 mmol/day. Acetate showed longer lag time in consumption compared to that of nitrate, which implying that acetate would be better carbon source compared to fumarate as more amount was utilized for nitrate removal than cell growth.

Numerical simulations of counterflow non-premixed $CH_4/C_2HCl_3/Air$ flames added 8%(by volume) C2HCl3 on the fuel side are conducted at atmospheric pressure using a detailed chemical reaction mechanism in order to understand the effect of strain rates. A detailed sensitivity analysis is also performed in order to assess the relative influence of each reaction on the flame established at a strain rate of 200s-1. The structure of flames (i.e., temperature, velocity, and concentration of species) established at both a strain rate of 150s-1 and 300s-1 are investigated. As the strain rate increases, the "flame zone" is restricted to a narrower range and the position of maximum temperature is shifted to the fuel side. The concentrations of major species, H2O, CO, H2, HCl, Cl2, and Cl are decreased with increased strain rate. The reaction involving chlorine, CH4 + Cl $\rightarrow$ CH3 + HCl, instead of the reaction, CH4 + H $\rightarrow$ CH3 + H2 influences the consumption of methane. C2HCl3 + OH $\rightarrow$ CHCl2 + CHOCl and HCl + OH $\rightarrow$ H2O + Cl, are major reactions, through which OH radicals are consumed.

Five different size of orifice were applied in a constant volume combustion chamber for evaluating the effects of torch-ignition on combustion. The initial flame development and flame propagation were analyzed by the mass burned fraction and combustion enhancement rate. The combustion pressures were measured to calculate the mass burned fractions and the combustion enhancement rates. In addition, the flame propagations were visualized by the shadowgraph method for the qualitative comparison. The result showed that the combustion pressure and mass burned fraction were increased when using the torch-ignition device. The combustion enhancement rates of torch-ignition cases were improved in comparison with conventional spark ignition. Finally, the visualization results showed that the torch-ignition induced faster burn than conventional spark ignition due to the earlier transition to turbulent flame and larger flame surface, during the initial stage.
