화력발전소, 소결공정, 소각장 등과 같은 수많은 배출원들은 배연탈질시스템을 적용하는데 V₂O₅/TiO₂계 모노리스 촉매상에서 NH₃를 환원제로 사용하는 선택적촉매환원 기술이 대표적이다. 현장에서 설치·운영되는 모든 탈질시스템은 예외없이 운전시간에 따른 촉매비활성화를 수반하므로 이에 효과적이고 경제적으로 대처할 수 있는 탈질성능 유지와 촉매관리를 위한 체제와 전략이 요구된다. 본 논고에서는 이들에 관한 구체적인 전략수립과 이에 기반한 탈질시스템 운영방법을 살펴보고, 신촉매 또는 재생촉매의 추가나 대체를 통한 탈질성능 관리와 경제성을 고려한 탈질촉매 재생기술을 다루고자 한다.

A biofilm reactor packed with porous media was investigated for nitrogen removal of synthetic wastewater. The effect of different loading rates on the nitrification was sustained to be steady state with stable efficiency of 50~60% in the range of $0.0083{\sim}0.017gNH_4-N/gMLVSS{\cdot}day$ of F/MN ratio and $1{\sim}2kgNH_4-N/m^3{\cdot}day$ of media volumetric loading rate. However, nitrification efficiency was rapidly decreased to 25~30% as F/MN ratio and media volumetric loading rate were increased to the range of $0.025{\sim}0.034gNH_4-N/gMLVSS{\cdot}day$ and $3{\sim}4kgNH_4-N/m^3{\cdot}day$, respectively. Also the consumption rate of alkalinity was higher under 8 hours of HRT than unter 6 hours of HRT. Accordingly the influent loading rate variation by detention time with influent flow influenced more on the nitrification efficiency than the influent loading rate variation by the influent concentration did. The temperature effect on the nitrification showed 25% higher in summer than in winter as the results reported by other researchers who reported that the nitrification efficiency in biofilm showed 20% increase from 55% to 75% when the temperature was raised from $20^{\circ}C$ to $25^{\circ}C$. Denitrification with sulfur-media showed 90% removal efficiency under steady-state with no effect from the increase of influent concentration and empty bed contact time (EBCT) change such as EBCT was decreased from 8.4 hr to 4.3 hr and $NO_3-N$ loading rate was changed within the range of $0.1{\sim}0.4kgNO^3-N/m^3{\cdot}day$. Accordingly Denitrification with sulfur-media is feasible for post denitrification at the concentration less than $80mgNO^3-N/L$.

The proprietary post-combustion CO₂ solvent (KoSol) developed by the Korea Electric Power Research Institute (KEPRI) was applied at the Shanghai Shidongkou CO₂ Capture Pilot Plant (China Huaneng CERI, capacity: 120,000 ton CO₂/yr) of the China Huaneng Group (CHNG) for performance evaluation. The key results of the pilot test and data on the South Korean/Chinese electric power market were used to calculate the predicted cost of CO₂ avoided upon deployment of CO₂ capture technology in commercial-scale coal-fired power plants. Sensitivity analysis was performed for the key factors. It is estimated that, in the case of South Korea, the calculated cost of CO₂ avoided for an 960 MW ultra-supercritical (USC) coal-fired power plant is approximately 35~44 USD/tCO₂ (excluding CO₂ transportation and storage costs). Conversely, applying the same technology to a 1,000 MW USC coal-fired power plant in Shanghai, China, results in a slightly lower cost (32~42 USD/tCO₂). This study confirms the importance of international cooperation that takes into consideration the geographical locations and the performance of CO₂ capture technology for the involved countries in the process of advancing the economic efficiency of large-scale CCS technology aimed to reduce greenhouse gases

Objectives: This study was conducted to examine the relationship between crude oil exposure and physical symptoms among residents participating in clean-up work associated with the Hebei Spirit oil spill, 2007 in Korea. Methods: A total of 288 residents responded to a questionnaire regarding subjective physical symptoms, sociodemographic characteristics and clean-up activities that occurred between two and eight weeks after the accident. Additionally, the urine of 154 of the respondents was analyzed for metabolites of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metals. To compare the urinary levels of exposure biomarkers, the urine of 39 inland residents who were not directly exposed to the oil spill were analyzed. Results: Residents exposed to oil remnants through clean-up work showed associations between physical symptoms and the exposure levels defined in various ways, including days of work, degree of skin contamination, and levels of some urinary exposure biomarkers of VOCs, metabolites and metals, although no major abnormalities in urinary exposure biomarkers were observed. Conclusions: This study provides evidence of a relationship between crude oil exposure and acute human health effects and suggests the need for follow-up to evaluate the exposure status and long-term health effects of clean-up participants.

$TiO_2$를 광촉매로 사용한 벤젠의 광촉매분해반응에서 근자외선과 가시광 또는 원자외선을 조사하였을 때, 수용액속에 공존하는 음이온들에 의한 영향을 확인해 보았다. 근자외선과 가시광을 조사하였을 때, 광증감제로 작용할 수 있는 $S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ 또는 $NO{_3}^-$가 $TiO_2$와 공존하는 경우에는 $TiO_2$만 사용하였을 때에 비해 벤젠의 분해효율이 약간 증가되었으나 $NO{_2}^-$ 또는 $Cl^-$의 경우에는 이들 이온에 의한 활성화학종의 생성이 억제되어 벤젠의 광분해효율이 크게 감소되었다. 반면에 자외선을 조사하였을 때에는 $S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ 또는 $NO{_3}^-$가 공존하는 경우에는 이들 이온에 의한 활발한 광증감작용으로 벤젠의 광분해효율이 크게 증가되었으며, $NO{_2}^-$과 $Cl^-$이 공존할 때에는 벤젠의 광분해효율이 약간 감소되었는데 근자외선과 가시광을 조사하였을 때와는 달리 그 감소폭이 그다지 커지지 않았다.

반도체 공정 중 PR (Photo Resist) 공정은 여러 인화성 물질을 혼합하여 사용하는 공정으로, 공정 장비가 Clean Room 내 설치되어 인화성 물질이 누출되는 경우 질식, 화재, 폭발 사고로 이어질 위험성이 크므로, 물질 누출시 발생할 수 있는 사고에 대한 영향을 분석하고, 작업자들의 안전을 보장할 수 있는지 평가하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구는 FLACS CFD - Fire Module을 이용하여 10개의 누출, 화재 시나리오에 대한 CFD Simulation을 통해 Clean Room 내부 가상으로 설정한 Monitor Point에서의 복사열 및 온도 변화 값을 확인하였다. Clean Room 내부에서 발생한 화재는 층간 구조물에 높은 복사열을 전달하지만, 그 범위가 상당히 제한적이며, 단일 화재 사고로 인해 붕괴될 가능성이 희박하다. 화재 사고로 인해 탈출구로 이어지는 2 곳의 계단이 동시에 높은 복사열에 노출되는 시나리오는 없어, 화재 발생시 작업자가 탈출 가능하였다. 또한 복사열 및 온도 상승의 수준은 아래층으로 이동하면서 급격하게 낮아지는 것을 확인하였으며, API 520의 기준에 따라 작업자가 30초 동안 버틸 수 있는 복사열인 6.31 kW/m²에 노출된 작업자도 화재가 발생한 Clean Room 내부에서 충분히 탈출할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Liquid crystal displays (LCD's) are continuously coated with some chemicals in the clean room of a factory. Spreading of these chemicals is causing serious problems both in controlling clean room quality as well as to the workers inside the factory. It is required to alleviate or properly control the offensive odor which is mainly composed of propylene glycol mono ethyl acetate, novolak resin and photo active compound. The control strategy employed is to bleed the offensive odor gas out the clean room. A full scale 3D CFD model was created with anisotropic porous media, chemical species transport with no volumetric reaction, and thermal diffusion with propane gas (tracer gas) to simulate the odor spreading. A segregated implicit solver with standard k-$\varepsilon$ model is employed. The detailed CFD analysis made it possible to develop an effective method of ventilating the coater room and optimizing their capacities.

본 논문에서는 해양오염 사고 시 방제장비를 얼마나 충분히 확보하여 방제작업 수행을 하여야 하는가가 매우 중요하기에 동적 시뮬레이션을 통한 위험분석을 하여 적정 방제장비의 확보를 위한 합리적 구성과 체계화 방안을 수립하는데 도움이 되고자 한다. 한 국가의 방제능력은 단순히 보유하고 있는 유회수기의 대수나 오일펜스의 길이로만 나타내어지는 것은 아니다. 국가의 방제능력은 방제장비의 양뿐만 아니라 오염 사고시 대응의 신속성과 체계성, 효율성을 고려하여 총괄적으로 표현되는 것이다. 이러한 국가방제능력 산정은 매우 복잡하며, 서로간의 상호관계가 매우 중요시되므로 시스템 다이나믹스 이론을 활용한 파워심을 이용하여 표현하였다.

Steel was exposed in an atmospheric environment, and atmospheric environmental factors that include chloride, humidity, SO₂, NO₂ etc. induced the corrosion of steel. Corrosivity categories classified by SO₂ and chloride deposition rate were low, but those classified by TOW were high in the Korean Peninsula, and on these environmental categories, the corrosivity of atmospheres classified by corrosion rate in carbon steel was low medium, C2-C3, and medium, C3 for zinc, copper, and aluminum. This work performed the outdoor exposure test for 10 years at 14 areas in Korea and calculated the atmospheric corrosion rate of carbon steel. The atmospheric corrosion behavior of carbon steel is discussed based on the various corrosion factors. When the corrosion product forms on carbon steel by atmospheric corrosion, cracks may also be formed, and through these cracks, the environmental factors can penetrate into the interior of the product, detach some of the corrosion products and finally corrode locally. Thus, the maximum corrosion rate was about 7.3 times greater than the average corrosion rate. The color difference and glossiness of carbon steel by the 10 year-outdoor exposure tests are discussed based on the corrosion rate and the environmental factors.

Steel structures exposed to the outdoors experienced several types of corrosion, which may reduce their thickness. Since atmospheric corrosion can induce economic losses, it is important to consider the atmospheric corrosion behavior of a variety of metals and alloys. This work performed outdoor exposure tests for 10 years at 14 areas in Korea and calculated the atmospheric corrosion rate of weathering steel. This paper discussed the atmospheric corrosion behavior of weathering steel based on various corrosion factors. The average corrosion rates in coastal, industrial, urban, and rural areas were found to range from (2.83 to 4.23) ㎛/y, (2.99 to 4.23) ㎛/y, (1.72 to 3.14) ㎛/y, and (1.57 to 2.85) ㎛/y respectively. It should be noted that the maximum corrosion rate was about 6.0 times greater than the average corrosion rate. Regardless of the exposure sites, the color differences were increased, but the glossiness was reduced and there was no relationship between the corrosion rate and environmental factors and the glossiness.
