  • Temperature programmed reduction experiments for Fe- and Co-oxides were performed and weight losses were carefully measured to calculate the extent of reduction. Addition of nickel and palladium affected the reduction by lowering the DTG peak temperature. Reduction experiments for the oxides on alumina were also studied and the effect of nickel and palladium addition was confirmed. And that was explained by means of increased adsorption of hydrogen and increased diffusion ability of the surface hydrogen.

  • Previous researchers have studied how to reduce a pumping power in order to save energy in the fluid transporting system. Especially, it has been studied a lot about reducing the pressure drop among parameters related to the energy saving for fluid transport. This study is to investigate the effect of a substantial drag reduction caused by the polymer(A611P, A601P) when the working fluids flow to the vertical and horizontal direction in the vertical cylindrical equipment of closed flow system. In this experiment, we mount a visualization equipment on the test section and take pictures. With using the PIV system, instrument and analyzing the movement of bubble for different polymer concentration are observed and some mechanism of the drag reduction effect is clarified.

  • In this paper, we propose a wavelet - based image noise reduction algorithm. We develop wavelet transform of existing Mallat Tree method. First, we propose a multiple filtering method. Maximizes the energy concentration characteristic of the wavelet transform considering the energy of each subband in the wavelet domain. We apply the proposed multiple filtering to the noise image. Finds energy subbands that can not be seen in normal images and removes them to remove noise.

  • University buildings are energy-guzzling facility that consume more than 10,000TOE within a campus annually. Even the consumption is on an upswing trend. Behind such high consumption are there cheap power rates for education facility, lack of high-efficiency equipment and ever-increasing use of various information equipment. Being keenly aware that greenhouse gas emission increases due to such rise of energy consumption, the present study carried out a case study. In the case study, the study chose the buildings of E university from top 10 universities that consume energy most in Seoul and examined the current status of their energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission. And then it set the reduction target of greenhouse gas by year. Putting aside a middle and long-termed strategy for later endeavor, it first established the 1st year's implementation plan (2014) for energy saving and greenhouse gas reduction with limited budget and according to greenhouse gas reduction target. The plan is specified as follows. Targets for energy saving are mainly divided into two sectors: machine equipment and electric equipment. 7 ideas were proposed. Three ideas to improve machine equipment are to replace with high-efficiency boilers and chillers and to adjust the position of the cooling tower. By doing so, it was estimated that energy could be saved by 176.34TOE in total and greenhouse gas could be reduced by 370.771t$CO_2$-eq. Four ideas to improve electric equipment include the replacement with LED lights, LED emergency lights and high-efficiency motors and the installation of motion sensors. It was calculated that such replacement could conserve 1,076.08TOE (electric energy) and reduce 2,181.420t$CO_2$-eq (greenhouse gas).

  • As the national demand for solving the fine dust problem has increased, the government has announced intensive measures to deal with fine dust. So recently, selective catalytic reduction(SCR) has attracted attention as a technology for removing nitrogen oxides from precursors of fine dust. In this study, the government's policies related to fine dust and the current status of market and R&D were investigated, and economic analysis by scenarios was conducted by dividing cases where SCR technology was applied to industries. The results of economic analysis for each scenario were calculated using NPV, and companies with no denitrification facilities(Case 1) introduced general SCR technologies(Scenario 1-1) and low-temperature SCR technologies(Scenario 1-2). In addition, companies that have already installed denitrification facilities(Case 2) analyzed the two categories, using the general SCR technology as it is(Scenario 2-1) and replacing it with low-temperature SCR technology(Scenario 2-2). Comparative analysis was performed based on the results of each NPV.

  • Greenhouse gas emissions and excessive energy consumption have been an on-going world issue nowadays. We can find that the majority portion is caused by high-rise office buildings. In order to resolve these problems, it is extremely important to implement various active or passive strategies in a building design. To successfully meet these design goals and energy reduction approaches, a project building must utilize an efficient design process from the early start. One of the most effective project delivery process called Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) will be implemented in a case study project building (KEPCO) during design phase and show how important it is to plan a project's green environmental performance goal together through an early collaboration from all key project participants, which helps to construct an successful green building design without any critical construction pitfalls.
