According to the MARPOL 73/78 of Convention, all ships should have oil filtering equipment and 15 ppm bilge which satisfy Requirements of MARPOL 73/78. This study is concerned with designing and manufacturing a prototype Oil content Meter(OCM) used in machinery area of ship. The prototype OCM is composed of two parts which are oil content sensing module and data processing unit. The oil content sensing module consists of infra-red light source, photo-diode light receivers, and a glass tube for bilge water sample. The data processing unit has a micro-processor as hard core and peripheral devices. The experimental results of prototype OCM and analysis of collected data reveal linear property between transmitted light and scattered light as long as the bilge water has low level content of oil. And this linear property leads to a oil content detecting method which is programmed and loaded into the data processing unit. The performance of the prototype OCM is compared with that of the commercial OCM in the market.

The oil tanker ship over 150GRT must equip oil content meter which satisfy requirements of revised MARPOL 73/78. Online measurement of oil content in complex samples is required to have fast response, continuous measurement, and satisfaction of ${\pm}10ppm$ or ${\pm}10%$ error in this field. The research of this paper is to develop oil content measurement system using analysis of light transmission and scattering among turbidity measurement methods. Light transmission and scattering are analytical methods commonly used in instrumentation for online turbidity measurement of oil in water. Gasoline is experimented as a sample and the oil content approximately ranged from 14ppm to 600ppm. TSK Fuzzy Model may be suitable to associate variously derived spectral signals with specific content of oil having various interfering factors. Proposed Parallel TSK Fuzzy Model is reasonably used to classify oil content in comparison with other models. Those measurement methods would be effectively applied and commercialized to oil content meter that is key components of oil discharge monitoring control equipment.

Two experiments were conducted to determine how much sodium in food could be detected using a salinity meter. First, the salinity of mixed solutions of 0 to 6% sugar, 0 to 5% oil, and 0 to 6.4% MSG in a 1% NaCl solution was measured using a salinity meter and a Mohr titration method, and the results were compared with the calculated sodium expectations. As a result, the sodium contents of the sugar solutions and MSG solutions measured using a salinity meter were lower than the expected concentrations at 2% or more and 0.8% or more, respectively (p<0.05). The salinity of the 18 HMR products was measured in the same way, and the results were then compared with the sodium contents of the nutrition facts. The average sodium content of all products measured using the salinity meter and Mohr method was 1.12 times and 1.06 times the sodium content of the nutrition facts, respectively. On the other hand, the differences between the products were significant. The correlation coefficients between the nutrition facts and salinity meter, the nutrition facts and the Mohr method, and the salinity meter and Mohr method were 0.885, 0.920, and 0.950, respectively (p<0.01).

An investigation of various olive oils available in Korea was carried out to assess their quality properties such as color, oxidative stability, fatty acid composition, tocopherol content, sterol content and benzo(a)pyrene content. In color measurement, by using a Lovibond color scale and Hunter color difference meter, both a and b values of extra virgin olive oil were higher than those of pure olive oil by Tintometer (Lovibond PFX995). However, extra virgin olive oil showed higher a value and lower L value than pure olive oil by the Hunter color difference meter. In the rancimat test, the induction period of extra virgin olive oil $(38.03{\sim}8.47hr)$ was longer than that of pure olive oil $(32.40{\sim}9.94hr)$. In fatty acid composition, C18:1 $(72.01{\sim}78.53wt%)$ was present in the greatest amount, with lesser amounts of C18:2 $(4.88{\sim}10.36wt%)$ and C18:3 $(0.56{\sim}1.09wt%)$. The tocopherol content ranged from ${\alpha}-Toc\;4.09{\sim}13.89mg/100g$, ${\beta}-Toc\;0.57{\sim}1.34mg/100g$, and ${\gamma}-Toc$ $3.41{\sim}8.03mg/100g$, and ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ was found to be the main isomer in all oil samples. Therefore, there was little difference in the fatty acid composition and tocopherol content among the different types of olive oils. In sterol content, ${\beta}-sitosterol$ $(124.52{\sim}19.33mg/100g)$ and campesterol $(1.10{\sim}0.62mg/100g)$ of extra virgin olive oil were higher than that of pure olive oil $({\beta}-sitosterol\;92.68{\sim}17.44mg/100g,\;campesterol\;0.59{\sim}0.35mg/100g)$. Benzo(a)pyrene was found in almost all samples, with $0.287{\sim}0.106{\mu}g/kg$ in extra virgin olive oil and $1.204{\sim}2.130{\mu}g/kg$ in pure olive oil.

본 논문에서는 대형 탱커선의 의무 장비인 유배출 감시 장비 (Oil Discharge Monitoring Equipment)를 위한 유분 농도계의 설계에 대하여 연구하였다. ODME는 국제해사기구 (IMO)에서 일정 ton 이상의 대형 선박에 의무적으로 설치하도록 규정하고 있으며 이는 날로 심각해지는 해양 오염을 방지하는데 목적이 있다. ODME의 구성 요소는 중앙 제어 장치, 유분 농도계, 유량계, 선속계, Sampling System, 배출 제어 장치로 이루어져 있으며 이중 가장 중요한 것은 유분 농도계이다. 이는 선박에서 배출되는 물에 포함된 유 성분을 ppm 단위로 계측하는 것이다. 이를 위한 탁도 측정 방법에는 여러 가지가 있지만, 본 연구에서는 선박에서 사용이 용이한 광산란 방식과 방폭성을 가지는 광섬유를 이용하여 탁도를 측정하는 유분 농도계를 설계하였으며 아울러 이에 대한 탁도 계산 알고리즘에 대하여 고찰하였다. 측정의 정밀도는 0-999ppm 범위에서 $\pm$5%의 오차 이내로 측정이 가능함을 보였다. 이는 IMO의 규격 ($\pm$10%의 오차)에 만족하는 수치이다.

Rolling bearings are classified one of the most important machine elements. The various function of bearings are greatly influenced by grease, and higher performance of rolling bearing greases is required in improve bearing lubrication. Three urea/ether oil greases with identical composition were synthesized to compare the performance of these greases according to the thickener content of grease. The typical grease physical properties were investigated. And life test of these greases was conducted by FE-9 grease life tester. The characteristics of the greases before and after life test were investigated using FT-IR, microscope, OIT and TAN meter. Large differences in the grease performance depending on the content of the thickener were observed. The grease with higher content of the hickener showed higher performance such as long life time and low TAN value. After preliminary test, twelve greases were synthesized and evaluated the performance of dropping point and OIT, then optimized two greases were selected by SSRED (Six Sigma Robust Engineering Design) using dropping point and OIT data. Characteristics of the optimized two greases were on the same level with estimated value. The optimized grease by means of OIT value showed longer grease life in comparison with optimized grease by dropping point. However two greases showed higher performance than typical urea/ether oil.

In this study, the moisture content of the face skin was changed according to the number of skin applications for female college students under 25 years of age. Moisture contents were measured using a skin moisture meter (skin oil and moisture meter, PRC, China). Skin used 500ml of Innisfree's blueberry rebalancing skin as a clinical trial material. Both the forehead, eyes, cheeks, and chin had a higher moisture content after one layer of application than before and after one layer of application, and after ten layers of application, it can be seen that the moisture content is higher. As a result, when applying basic products after washing your face, the first step is to increase the number of skins, and then apply basic products such as lotion and moisturizing cream to increase the moisture content.

The characteristic analysis of fly ash generated from a fired power plant using bunker-C oil has been investigated. Ash size distribution by an optical microscopy with image processing technique, morphological shape by a scanning electron microscope(SEM) and microscope, chemical composition by the inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry(ICP), and resistivity measurement as a function of temperature and moisture content by the resistivity meter are performed. A study of physical, chemical and electrical characteristics of bunker-C fly ash plays an important role of improving the performance of an electrostatic precipitator and protecting air pollution. The samples of bunker-C fly ash for analysis were collected from the electrostatic precipitator hopper of Ulsan Power Plant Unit 1 and Pusan Power Plant Unit 1. Mass median diameter(MMD) of bunker-C fly ash was measured 12.7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, while MMD of fly ash generated from the mixture of bunker-C oil(40%) and domestic anthracitic coal(60%) was 25.7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The morphological structure of bunker-C fly ash consisted of fine particles of non-spherical shape. The primary chemical components of bunker-C fly ash were composed of SiO2(2.36%), Al2O3(4.91%), Fe2O3(14.33%) and C(11.84%). Resistivity of bunker-C fly ash was found to be increased with increasing temperature at the range of 100~15$0^{\circ}C$ and was measured 103~104 ohm-cm.

This study examined the optimal manufacturing conditions of RDF using heat-dried sludge from sewage treatment plant in Cheonan with the oil-drying method. The amounts of oil evaporation and oil drying of the heat-dried sludge were measured at different temperatures to evaluate the value of the product. The performance of the product was then measured using a calorimeter and TGA. In addition, the concentration of odor, NH3, H2S, and TVOC during drying was determined using a portable odor-meter. Ingredient analysis was performed by EDS. Considering mass-production, the oil to heat-dried sludge weight ratio was fixed to 4:1. At $130^{\circ}C$, only physical mixing occurred after the instantaneous drying of internal water. Considering the eco-friendly aspects, there was no significant difference in the drying efficiency between $160^{\circ}C$ and $190^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the optimal conditions were a drying temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ within 5 minutes. Finally, the RDF manufactured in this study and fuel used in the thermal power plants were compared. The calorific value was 4,449kcal/kg, the water content was 2% and the ash content was 34%, which is higher than the fuel of thermal power plants. Therefore, it is believed that coal energy as well as wood pellets can be replaced.
