Recently, sea algae cultivation as carbon sink and carbon dioxide fixation have been considered. Also, various researches on bioenergy derived from sea algae and the utilization of fibers, saccharide, and lipid of sea algae have been performing. Till now, algae fibers has been used for manufacturing of paper and reinforcing of polymer composites and the extracts of sea algae are used for cosmetics, pharmaceutical materials and food such as agar. Especially, algae fiber has so similar properties to cellulose in terms of crystallinity and functional groups that it can be utilized as reinforcements of biocomposites. Biocomposites as alternatives of glass fiber reinforced polymer composites are environmentally friendly polymer composites reinforced with natural fibers and are actively applying to the automobiles and construction industries. In this paper, characteristics of algae fiber and biocomposites reinforced with algae fiber as environmentally friendly energy materials have been introduced.

A survey was conducted to study the ingredient and the nutrition of Yukwa consumed in Jeonbuk region. Additional survey was performed to the adult population in Jeobook region to identify the recognition and improvement of Yukwa. The ingredient and baking process varies from each region. The modernization of Yukwa baking process requires introduction of new flavour using new ingredient and simplification of the baking process as these two factors are holding back the modernization of the Yukwa. Top quality Yukwa can be produced by standardized baking process, using top quality agricultural goods, cultivated in Korea. The key to making Yukwa more accessible to the public is by simplifying the current baking process, including the drying process Bandegi, which is the most complicated process of all.

Nowadays, it is becoming difficult to secure a transmission line route when a new transmission line is constructed due to social environment and resident complaints. As existing urban areas are expanded and new cities are constructed, the necessity of high-capacity underground power transmission has been increasing because of load concentration in downtown areas. In North America, Europe and Japan, the research has been carried out for 2nd generation gas insulated transmission lines(GIL) which is more environmentally friendly and economical compared to previous GILs. The new GILs have been applied to real power systems from early 2000s. In South Korea, GIL is being considered as a possible solution for replacing 345kV high-capacity overhead transmission lines with underground transmission ones, so KEPCO is planning to develop and apply a new 362kV rated GIL underground transmission lines instead of overhead transmission lines. In this paper, the overvoltage generated at the combined transmission line adapting GIL was reviewed using EMTP.

Based on the existing pollutant emissin standards which are armed at the pollutant concentration of each pollution source, government formulated and implemented new management system of total water pollutant emission. By virtue of this new management system, pollution loading amount of individual watershed could be controlled, which achieved the requirement of water quality management such as TP and BOD. In initiate stage of it's implement, BOD was selected as object of water quality management, While it's necessary to consider the continuity of water quality data and established pollutant management laws and policy. During the ongoing management, TP management was added into the system while simply BOD management was not enough. However, the frequency of algae bloom in Han-river showed a trend of same, even though TP was treated as additional control target. Therefore, this paper will analyze different water quality parameters and characteristic of water quality, so that this study can be provide as reference for watershed management of water quality, by which the applicable management period and target pollutant can be selected in the future.

The purpose of this study was to find out the residents' needs fur rural houses and to suggest the policy directions for developing Korean rural viewscape houses. The subjects were 386 houses and residents. They were selected according to accessibility, area characteristics, administrative district, and village types. The data were collected by using the interview and observation method based on the questionnaire. By analyzing the residents' needs for rural houses, the following conclusions were derived: 1) In order to preserve the rural characteristic, the government should lead to establish the yard space and the exterior design factors such as wall material and color, and the shape, material, and color of roof. 2) At the same time, the government should provide the residents with the subsidy for house improvement, so that they can build the desirabe size of house and the aged remodel their houses. 3) The contemporary design model of rural Han-ok should be developed and built. 4) The new rural house model improving roof design should be developed, because present houses with slab roofs and skirt roofs spoil the harmony with the rural natural environment. 5) The direction of rural houses for viewscape was defined as to satisfy residents' needs for convenient housing lift and to harmony visual and physical factors - building form, material and color - involving Korean rural housing culture.

Acarosporaceae is a crustose lichen and is known as a species that has more than 50 multispores, and has hyaline spores. Those taxa are often found in rock and soil in mountain areas or coastal regions in Korea, and very diverse forms and species are known. However, after an overall genetic phylogenetic analysis of carbonized ascomata in 2015, species consisting only of the morphological base are newly divided, and several species of Acarosporaceae in Korea are also being discovered in this situation. As a result of analysis using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and nuLSU gene analysis, Korean species belonged to Acarospora and Sarcogyne clade, and Acarospora classified as the Acarospora clade was mixed with the Polysporina group and the Sarcogyne clade is mixed with the Acarospora. We identified two new species (Acarospora beangnokdamensis J. S. Park & S. O. Oh, sp. nov., Sarcogyne jejuensis J. S. Park & S. O. Oh, sp. nov.) through morphological, molecular, and secondary metabolite substance and found one new record (Sarcogyne oceanica K. Knudsen & Kocourk). We have made a classification key for Acarospora and Sarcogyne in Korea and reported all information together here.

수소는 미래의 청정에너지원이다. 수소를 생산하는 효과적인 방법으로는 탄소계촉매를 이용하여 부탄을 분해하는 것이다. 촉매는 카본블랙이 사용되었으며, $500{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$의 온도 범위에서 열분해 반응과 촉매분해반응이 수행되었다. 열분해의 경우 온도가 증가함에 따라 전화율이 증가하여 $800^{\circ}C$에서 98.9%로 부탄이 거의 분해되었으며, $900^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 전화율이 100%까지 도달하였다. 부탄 분해반응에서 기대되는 생성물은 메탄, 에틸렌, 에탄, 프로필렌, 프로판 등이다. $1000^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서는 부탄 촉매 분해반응에서 거의 대부분 수소와 메탄만이 관찰되었다. 특히 $500-1100^{\circ}C$까지 온도가 증가하였을 때 수소의 생성율은 꾸준히 증가하는 것으로 확인되었고 촉매분해반응이 촉매를 사용하지 않은 열분해반응보다 온도가 증가함에 따라 수소의 선택도를 더욱 향상시켜 보다 많은 수소가 생성되었으며, 반응성 실험이 진행되는 동안 촉매의 비활성화는 관찰되지 않았다. 반응전후의 촉매의 특성을 분석하기 위해 TEM 및 SEM 분석을 하였다. 반응전의 촉매는 매끈한 모양이었으나 $1000-1100^{\circ}C$에서 반응후에는 표면에 돌기모양을 형성하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.
