  • Heat exchangers are called with important devices which have been widely used in industrial fields. Therefore, the design method for a heat exchanger is an important study in the aspect of energy saving. In this study, performance analyses for two types of plate and shell heat exchangers having a corrugated trapezoid shape of a chevron angle with $45^{\circ}$, were executed and compared with experiments. For this study, the operation liquids were adopted with non-phase changing water. In the analysis, ${\epsilon}-NTU$ method was used for a plate and shell heat exchanger and a program was constructed. Independent variables for a plate and shell heat exchanger are flow rate and inlet temperature. Compared with experimental data, the accuracy of the developed are ${\pm}2.5%\;and\;{\pm}5%$ at the type A and type B in the heat transfer rate, respectively. In the pressure drop, the accuracy of the proposed program for a plate and shell heat exchanger is within ${\pm}3%$ and 5% error bounds for the type A and type B, respectively.

  • We studied algal growth-related water quality of the Sangsa lake which is the drinking water reservoir for the south-eastern region of Jeonnam province. Peridinium cinctum and several diatomic algal species frequently caused water bloom throughout the lake from early spring to late autumn. With the heaviest predominance of Peridinium cintum in May 2003, COD was 22.7 mg/l in the surface layer. Highly turbid surface water of 15 NTU was also caused by Perdinium bloom. Cyanobacterial growth was effectively prohibited by dominant growth of Peridinium in the Sangsa lake, otherwise confronted with cyanobacterial bloom. Dense algal layer was confined in the upper several meters of the water column above the thermocline, which gives relatively algae-free water in deeper layer suitable for drinking source water supply. Upon collapse of thermocline, water quality of the surface layer was improved while deeper layer was deteriorated. This paper deals with some details of water quality changes with algal growth in the Sangsa lake past two years.

  • The Purpose of this study is to reduce environmental problems caused by landfill of bituminous coal fly ash emitted from the power plant and to reuse it. First of all, we experimented that Al and Si elements were extracted from fly ash and investigated that extracted Al and Si elements night use a coagulant. The extraction was carried out under various conditions ; concentration of the extraction solution, calcination temperature and calcination time. As the results, it was found that the optimum conditions of the extraction of Al and Si elements from fly ash were as follows, concentration of NaOH was 5N for both of them, calcination temperature was $700^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ and calcination time was 1hr and 1.5hr, respectively The extracted solution was used as a coagulant to treat the diluted metal-plating solutions which contained Pb and Cu, respectively. As the result of treatment on the diluted Pb-plating solution with 315NTU, the removal efficiency of turbidity was more than 90%, and the removal efficiency of Pb was about 80%. As for treatment of the non-turbid diluted Cu-plating solution, the removal efficiency of Cu was about 98%.

  • An upflow BAF(Biological Aerated Filter) equipped with an expanded clay media was applied to reuse weaving wastewater of water jet loom. The performance of lab-scale biofilter was investigated by the adjustment of EBCTs(Empty Bed Contact Time) and the packing ratio of media, which were changed 1.1 to 3.7hr and 38 to 63%, respectively. In most conditions except 1.1hr of EBCT, BOD, CODcr, SS and Turbidity of the effluent were 1~4mg/L, 7~16mg/L, 1~5mg/L and 5~14NTU, where their removal efficiencies were 76~95%, 82~93%, 63~94% and 59~81%, respectively. From the observation of SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) photographs of porous clay media, it was revealed that this media provided good performance of retaining microbes effectively. In addition, $0.44~0.49kgVSS/kgBOD_{rem}$. of low sludge reduction was expected. The most efficient back washing cycle and procedure were once per 4 to 9 days and air including collapse-pulsing method, respectively. Therefore, this system can be of use as an weaving wastewater treatment for reuse.

  • Submerged membrane bio-reactor equipped with a hollow fiber microfiltration was applied to reuse weaving wastewater of water jet loom, where two parameters such as the concentration of MLSS and the flux were controlled. While the flux at the concentration of MLSS around 900mg/L was constantly kept over 0.4m/d and 0.8m/d in a short time, the stable flux at around 300mg/L of MLSS was shown at the 8 days later. Regardless of MLSS and flux, BOD, CODcr and Turbidity of the permeate were 1~2mg/L, 7~10mg/L and below 1 NTU, which were 85~90%, 87~90% and 98% of removal efficiency, respectively. The stable operation without fouling was achieved because the contents of ECP were smaller than those of common MBR processes and the composition(saccharide/protein) was kept constantly. In this study, 0.5~1.0m/d of flux and 400~900mg/L of MLSS were considered as the most recommendable operating condition for the reuse of weaving wastewater.

  • Because of being produced a great deal of excess sludges from biological wastewater treatment process, the subject regarding treatment and disposal of them has been significantly handled in real plants. It should be considered the alternative treatment with easy operating and cost effective process in rural areas. For the thickening of wasted activated sludge from small scale wastewater treatment facilities, thus, the provisional sludge thickening system was developed by the application of mesh filter module. Three meshes with different pore size(100, 150, $200{\mu}m$) were prepared for filter modules that were used to withdraw effluent from thickening system. A filter module with $100{\mu}m$ mesh was chosen as the most effective thickening material in the viewpoint of volume reduction and effluent quality: the volume reductions of initially injected sludge with 3,600 mg/L and 9,100 mg/L were 95% and 85%, respectively, and the filtered effluents were enough good to be shown below 1.0 mg/L of SS and 1.0 NTU of turbidity. Since the filtration of thickening was influenced by the cake layer formed on mesh filter module and this system was operated in the combination of sludge thickening with gravity settling, the filter modules with smaller pore size and the larger floc size were required for long term operation safely.

  • A numerical study was conducted to calculate the cooling capacity variation of a power plant ACC (air-cooled condenser) caused by changes in operating conditions. A numerical model was developed using the ${\varepsilon}-NTU$ and finite volume method, containing 100 elements for a single low fin tube. The model was validated through a comparison of cooling capacity between the simulated values and manufacturer's data. Even though simple assumptions and previously presented heat transfer correlations were applied to the model, the prediction error was 1.9%. The simulated variables of the operating conditions were air velocity, air temperature, and mass flux. The analysis on the variation of thermal resistance along the tube showed that the water side thermal resistance was higher than the air side thermal resistance at the downstream end of the tube, indicating that the ACC capacity could be increased by applying technology to enhance in-tube flow condensation heat transfer.

  • For the purpose of finding out the distributions of groundwater uses, the effect of facilities on the parameter and the correlations among measurements, various statistical analysis were carried out with the data of groundwater quality measurements from January to December in 2002. 1. The rates of groundwater for drinking water were 10.5% in Yangcheon-Gu, 10.2% in Kangdong-Gu, and 9.9% in Eunpyung-Gu. The rates of other uses of groundwater were shown to be 58.1%(786 wells) for civil defense emergency, 22.1%(299 wells) for contamination-concerning, 9.8%(133 wells) for water quality monitoring, consisting of 90% of all groundwater. 2. The 52.6% of groundwater for drinking were demonstrated to be appropriate while 91.9% for tither uses-domestic, industrial, agricultural uses- were shown to be proper. 3. For drinking water, the average values of colar, turbidity, NH3-N, F, and Fe were 11.216 degree, 2.138 NTU, 2.458mg/l, 0.212mg/1 and 0.507mg/1 respectively. 4. In cases of drinking water wells for emergency, the results of statistical analysis showed that building year of the wells, depth and pumping rate didn't affect on whether it was proper for that use or not. It were shown that there were linear correlations between depth and NO$_3$-N(-0.171) and F ̄(0.332) while the correlation coefficients were 0.381 and -0.169 between the building year of well and depth and pumping rate respectively.

  • In this study, we divided the process operation scenarios into three categories based on raw water temperature and turbidity. We will select and operate the process operation scenario according to the characteristics of the raw water. The number of algae in the DAF treated water has been analyzed to be less than 100 cells/mL. These results indicated that the DAF process is effective in removing the algae. In addition, the scenario of the integrated management decision algorithm of the DAF process was developed. DAF pilot plants ($500m^3/day$) process has shown a constantly sound performance for the treatment of raw water, yielding a significantly low level of turbidity (DAF treated water, 0.21~1.56 NTU).

  • 하절기 고탁수로 문제가 되고 있는 임하호에 원활한 탁수배제를 위하여 선택취수시설이 설치되어 2006년 운영되었다. 본 연구는 이러한 선택취수시설에 대한 효과를 분석하기 위하여 CE-QUAL-W2 모형을 이용하여 호내의 탁수 분포를 분석하고 보정된 모형을 이용하여 선택취수와 표면취수(표층${\sim}7\;m$)에 따른 탁수의 저감효과에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 임하댐 유입부의 탁도 자동 측정 시스템에서 측정된 수온 및 탁도자료를 입력자료로 사용하였고, 모형의 호내의 4개지점의 수심별 자료에 대하여 보정을 실시하였다. 보정결과 관측값과 비교에서 절대 평균 오차(RMSE)는 5.2로 산정되었으며 수심별 수온 및 탁도 분포와 최고 탁도층이 발생하는 수심을 적절히 모의하였다. 선택취수시설을 적용한 경우 표면취수의 경우와 비교해서 100 NTU 이상의 고탁수층에 대해서는 (1) 호내의 탁수량이 $35\;Mm^3$이상이 저감되는 것으로 나타났고, (2) 고탁수의 방류량이 3배이상 증대되는 것으로 나타났다. 선택취수는 표면취수에 비해 고탁수층의 배제에 효과적이며 취수구의 위치 변경등 지속적인 관리를 통하여 효율적인 운영이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 효과분석 결과를 바탕으로 시설에 대한 운영방안을 수립할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
