By surveying the 70 composting plants in Gyeonggi Province, the total commercial production of livestock faeces composts (LFCs) in 2008 was estimated to be about 480,000 Mg year-1 and they were manufactured mainly by using both mechanical mixer and bottom air blower. LFCs were composed mainly of chicken faeces 29.2%, pig+chicken faeces 23.1%, pig faeces 20.0%, livestock faeces+oil cake 12.3%, pig+chicken+cattle faeces 10.8% and pig+cattle faeces 4.6%. On the basis of the current official standard which was revised on March 2010, 11 composts out of surveyed 76 ones did not meet the LFCs quality standard (LQS) due to inadequate content of water (5), OM/N (1), NaCl (2) and Zn (3). The OM/N declined by adding chicken faeces and oil cake, while Ca content increased by the addition of chicken faeces and NaCl increased by adding cattle faeces.

대한민국 환경부는 전국 대도시 측정소의 절반 이상에서 초미세먼지(Particulate Matter, $PM_{2.5}$) 농도가 기준치를 초과함으로서 국민의 건강보호를 위한 초미세먼지 제거대책을 추진 중에 있다. 전주시 중심가에서 여러 가지 주행조건을 달리하고 주행 중에 승용차내 초미세먼지를 측정한 결과 공기순환모드(Actuator)를 내기모드로, 송풍기(Blower)를 2단으로 조절한 경우에 초미세먼지의 감소속도가 가장 신속하고 낮은 농도를 유지하였다. 주행중에 창문을 열면 외부의 오염원 진입과 더불어 내부 먼지의 비산이 발생하였으며 탑승인원의 증가도 초미세먼지의 비산을 유발하였다. 공기 청정용 필터는 현재 사용중인 절곡 폴리프로필렌 부직포가 가장 우수했으나, 초미세먼지와 함께 휘발성 유기물질의 제거를 위하여는 탄소흡착제인 활성탄소섬유(Activated Carbon Fiber Filter) 부직포 필터의 사용이 훨씬 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

계단실을 직접 가압했을 경우에 계단실과 부속실 사이의 차압 및 부속실과 세대 사이의 차압이 어떤 영향을 받는지 연구하기 위해 실건물을 사용해 실험했다. 또한 열린문에서의 유속분포도 측정하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 건물은 지상 20층 지하 2층의 공동주택이다. 계단실을 가압하기 위해서 송풍기를 지하 1층에 설치하여 외부공기를 계단실로 공급했다. 13가지 경우에 대한 실험을 실시했으면 주 실험변수들은 문이 개방된 층의 숫자와 위치 및 송풍량이었다. 지상 1층 문들만이 열린 상태에서는 계단실과 부속실 사이의 차압 및 부속실과 세대 사이의 차압이, 1층 부근을 제외하고는, 비교적 균일하게 분포되었다. 실험결과 180~270 CMM에서 한 층이 개방되어도 화재안전기준의 방연풍속을 만족하였고, 계단실은 전체적으로 양압을 유지할 수 있었으나 최소차압 조건(10 Pa)을 항상 만족시키지는 못하였다. 두 층의 문들이 개방된 경우, 유량을 증가함으로써 최소유속조건은 만족시킬 수 있었으나 가압지점 인근에서 과압이 발생하지 않는 상태에서 최소차압조건을 만족시키는 것은 비현실적임을 발견했다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the hot air drying characteristics of squash slices depending on the drying conditions (input air velocity, input air temperature, and sample thickness). Methods: The developed drying system was equipped with a controllable air blower and electric finned heater, drying chamber, and ventilation fan. Squash (summer squash called Korean zucchini) samples were cut into slices of two different thicknesses (5 and 10 mm). These were then dried at two different input air temperatures (60 and $70^{\circ}C$) and air velocities (5 and 7 m/s). Six well-known drying models were tested to describe the experimental drying data. A non-linear regression analysis was applied to determine model constants and statistical indices such as the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), reduced chi-square (${\chi}^2$), and root mean square error (RMSE). In addition, the effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) was estimated based on the curve of ln(MR) versus drying time. Results: The results clearly showed that drying time decreased with an increase in input air temperature. Slice thickness also affected the drying time. Air velocity had a greater influence on drying time at $70^{\circ}C$ than at $60^{\circ}C$ for both thicknesses. All drying models accurately described the drying curve of squash slices regardless of slice thickness and drying conditions; the Modified Henderson and Pabis model had the best performance with the highest R2 and the lowest RMSE values. The effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) changes, obtained from Fick's diffusion method, were between $1.67{\times}10^{-10}$ and $7.01{\times}10^{-10}m^2/s$. The moisture diffusivity was increased with an increase in input air temperature, velocity, and thickness. Conclusions: The drying time of squash slices varied depending on input temperature, velocity, and thickness of slices. The further study is necessary to figure out optimal drying condition for squash slices with retaining its original quality.

Most of the fossil power plants firing lower grade coals are challenged with maintaining good combustion conditions while maximizing generation and minimizing emissions. In many cases significant derate, availability losses and increase in unburned carbon levels can be attributed to poor combustion conditions as a result of poorly controlled local fuel and air distribution within the boiler furnace. The poor combustion conditions are directly related to the gas flow deviation in upper furnace and convection tube-bank but a less reported issue related to in large-scale oppose wall fired boilers. In order to develop a on-line combustion monitoring system and suggest an alternative heat flux estimation method at tube bank, which is very useful information for boiler design tool and blower optimizing system, field test was conducted at operating power boiler. During the field test the exhaust gases' temperature and tube metal temperature were monitored by using a spatially distributed sensors grid which located in the boiler's high temperature vestibule region. At these locations. the flue gas flow is still significantly stratified, and air in-leakage is minimal which enables tracing of poor combustion zones to specific burners and over-fire air ports. Test results showed that the flue gas monitoring method is more proper than metal temperature distribution monitoring for real time combustion monitoring because tube metal temp. distribution monitoring method is related to so many variables such as flue gas, internal flow unbalance, spray etc., Heat flux estimation at the tube bank with flue gas temp. and metal temp. data can be alternative method when tube drilling type sensor can't able to use.

Syngas, also known as synthesis gas, synthetic gas, or producer gas, is a combustible gas mixture generated when organic material (biomass) is heated in a gasifier with a limited airflow at a high temperature and elevated pressure. The present research was aimed at modifying the existing LPG engine generator for fully operated syngas. During this study, the designed gasifier-powered woodchip biomass was used for syngas production to generate power. A 6.0 kW LPG engine generator was modified and tested for operation on syngas. In the experiments, syngas and LPG fuels were tested as test fuels. For syngas production, 3 kg of dry woodchips were fed and burnt into the designed downdraft gasifier. The gasifier was connected to a blower coupled with a slider to help the air supply and control the ignition. The convection cooling system was connected to the syngas flow pipe for cooling the hot produce gas and filtering the impurities. For engine modification, a customized T-shaped flexible air/fuel mixture control device was designed for adjusting the correct stoichiometric air-fuel ratio ranging between 1:1.1 and 1.3 to match the combustion needs of the engine. The composition of produced syngas was analyzed using a gas analyzer and its composition was; 13~15 %, 10.2~13 %, 4.1~4.5 %, and 11.9~14.6 % for CO, H₂, CH₄, and CO₂ respectively with a heating value range of 4.12~5.01 MJ/Nm³. The maximum peak power output generated from syngas and LPG was recorded using a clamp-on power meter and found to be 3,689 watts and 5,001 watts, respectively. The results found from the experiment show that the LPG engine generator operated on syngas can be adopted with a de-ration rate of 73.78 % compared to its regular operating fuel.
