This study examined the effects of kinesio taping on recovery from fatigue induced by an exercise of concentric contraction using an isokinetic machine. The fatigue was introduced by a mode of exercise at 60°/sec, 50 repetitions for three sessions. The changes of blood ammonia, lactate, LDH, and CK as a marker of fatigue were monitored. Eight healthy collegiate students participated in two experiments; 1) kinesio taping application condition and 2) no kinesio taping application condition. Before experiments, their physical characteristics were measured. For the experiment, blood samples were taken before and immediately after exercise, and 24hr as well as 72hr of recovery period. Window SPSS package 12.0 version was used and one-way ANOVA with repeated measures were employed. The results were as follows. 1) Blood ammonia tended to reduce along the recovery, but no differences between conditions were noticed. 2) Blood lactate tended to reduce during the recovery period, but differences between conditions were not noticed. 3) The LDH was not different between conditions and CK tended to reduce during the recovery period, but differences between conditions were not noticed. Based on the results, kinesio taping did not influence on recovery phase of blood ammonia, lactate concentration, LDH, and CK.

Liquid-liquid membrane contactor (LLMC), a device that exchanges dissolved gas molecules between the two sides of a hydrophobic membrane through membrane pores, can be employed to extract ammoniacal nitrogen from a feed solution, which is transported across the membrane and accumulated in a stripping solution. This LLMC process offers the promise of improving the sustainability of the global nitrogen cycle by cost-effectively recovering ammonia from wastewater. Despite recent technological advances in LLMC processes, a comprehensive review of their feasibility for ammonia recovery is rarely found in the literature. Our paper aims to close this knowledge gap, and in addition to analyze the challenges and provide potential solutions for improvement. We begin with discussions on the operational principles of the LLMC process for ammonia recovery and membrane types and membrane configurations commonly used in the process. We then assess the performance of the process by reviewing publications that demonstrate its practical application. Challenges involved in the implementation of the LLMC process, such as membrane fouling, membrane wetting, and chemical requirements, are presented, along with discussions on potential strategies to address each. These strategies, including membrane modification, hybrid process design, and process optimization based on cost-benefit analysis, guide the reader to identify key areas of future research and development.

This study was carried out to recover phosphorus in animal wastewater using a magnesium source. $MgCl_2$, as a magnesium source, was shown a SP (soluble phosphorus) recovery rate of 98% in both the aeration and the NaOH tests to adjust pH around 8.5. In case of MgO, the recovery rate of SP were 88% with the aeration and 58% with the NaOH. In case of ammonia nitrogen recovery, $MgCl_2$ was shown the recovery rate of 17% with aeration and 18% with NaOH. MgO was shown the ammonia recovery rate of 18% with aeration and 11% with NaOH. At low temperature of $6-8^{\circ}C$ with the animal wastewater from piglet stall, the recovery rate of SP was shown 95% with NaOH and 92% with aeration using $MgCl_2$. The recovery rate of ammonia nitrogen was shown 9% with NaOH and 12% with aeration, respectively. It was observed that the pH can be raised by aeration. The reaction was completed within 5 minutes and the struvite cristal structure was formed and could be observed with an electronic microscope.

Microwave (MW) radiation was developed to remove and recover ammonia nitrogen in the real swine wastewater. The effect of operating parameters of MW radiation such as initial pH, power, radiation time, aeration, and stirring for removal ammonia nitrogen in swine wastewater was determined. The pH, radiation time, and power were significantly influenced on the removal of ammonia nitrogen, and aeration and stirring showed relatively minor effect on the removal of ammonia nitrogen. Optimum condition was achieved to retrieve the nitrogen efficiently at pH 11, 700 W for 5 min in MW radiation process. Through this process, 83.1% of ammonia nitrogen concentration was reduced in swine wastewater and also 82.6% of ammonia nitrogen was recovered as ammonium sulfate at the optimized condition. The high ammonia removal and recovery efficiency of the MW radiation method indicated that MW radiation was an effective technique to remove and recover ammonia nitrogen in the swine wastewater.

기체투과막 기술을 이용하여 가축분뇨 폐기물 등으로부터 암모니아성 질소를 효과적으로 회수할 수 있다. 이는 폐기물 내 암모니아 기체가 폐기물에 함침된 기체투과막의 미세공극을 투과하여 막반대편에 도달하게 된다. 투과된 암모니아 기체분자는 막 반대편에 존재하는 용액 내 황산 등 산에 의해 포획 및 회수된다. 막 유입부 내 암모니아성 질소 제거 효과를 높이기 위해서는 우선 유입 폐기물 내 pH를 높게 유지해야 하는데 pH 상승에 필요한 염기성 약품 투입비용이 문제가 될 수 있다. 기존 연구에서는 보다 저렴한 소석회 투입하거나 폭기 혹은 질산화억제를 통해 높은 pH를 효과적으로 유지시키는 방안이 거론되고 있다. 한편 암모니아성 질소 회수에 쓰이는 기체투과막의 재질은 적절한 내열성이나 내화학성 이외에도 소수성을 띈다는 특징이 있으며 이를 통해 막기공을 통해 암모니아 기체를 선택적으로 투과시킬 수 있다. 향후 연구에서는 다양한 성상을 가진 현장 폐기물을 이용하여 실증 Test를 수행하고 이를 기반으로 최적 설계/운전 조건 규명 및 경제성 제고 방안을 수립하여야 한다.

In this study, a sweep gas - vacuum hybrid type membrane degassing process was proposed for ammonia wastewater treatment. In addition, the ammonia selective recovery of the hybrid type membrane degassing process was also investigated. As a result, the hybrid type membrane degassing process showed better degassing performance (54.9 mg NH₃/m²min for 360 min) than the sweep gas type (32.3 mg NH₃/m²min) or vacuum type (22 mg NH₃/m²min). Additionally, the hybrid type membrane degassing process showed an excellent ammonia selectivity (103 times compared to Na+ Na⁺, 133 times compared to Ca²⁺). The ammonia selectivity was appeared to be due to the conversion characteristics of ammonium ion / dissolved ammonia depending on pH. The results in this study are expected to be used in the development of ammonia wastewater treatment and ammonia recovery in the future.

Phosphorus is a vital resource for sustaining agriculture and nutrition, but a limited non-renewable resource. Thus, the recovery of phosphorus from waste activated sludge(WAS) was attempted by microwave heating and magnesium ammonium phosphorus(MAP) crystallization. Polyphosphate-accumulating organisms(PAOs) in WAS release phosphate from the cell when they are exposed to high temperature environments. Microwave heating caused phosphorus and ammonia to release from WAS. The amount was increased with increasing temperature, showing that 88.5% of polyphosphate present in the cells were released in the form of phosphate at $80^{\circ}C$. A similar result was also observed in the release of ammonia. On the other hand, both phosphorus and ammonia were crystallized with magnesium, and then was harvested as MAP. Phosphorus recovery rate reached almost 97.8%, but the ammonia was about 13.4%. These results cleary indicate that phosphorus could be recovered from WAS using a physiological trait of PAOs. Heavy metal analyses also show that the MAP crystal is useful and safe as a phosphorus fertilizer.

본 연구에서는 축산 분야에서 배출되는 암모니아를 효과적으로 회수할 수 있는 흡착기술의 연구개발 동향 및 향후 전략에 대해 논의하였다. 적절한 암모니아 흡착제는 표면의 산성기나 수소결합기를 가지며 높은 비표면적과 암모니아 흡착에 적절한 표면구조를 지니어야 한다. 일반적인 암모니아 흡착제로는 활성탄이나 제올라이트 등의 광물질이 널리 쓰이나 대체로 흡착효과가 낮아 표면 개질 등을 통한 개선이 필요하다. 일례로 금속염화물이 다공성 흡착제에 포함되었을 때, 활성탄이나 제올라이트의 표면에 흡착 시보다 암모니아 흡착량이 더 증가하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근에는 MOFs (Metal-Organic Frameworks)나 POPs (Porous Organic Polymers) 같은 새로운 종류의 흡착제가 개발 및 적용되고 있으며 조절가능한 높은 비표면적과 다공성으로 매우 높은 암모니아 흡착용량을 보였다. 그 외에 프러시안 블루가 높은 암모니아 흡탈착성능 및 선택성을 보였는데. 이는 축산폐기물 배출 암모니아 회수에 관련하여 상대적으로 유리한 측면으로 보인다. 향후 다양한 흡착제를 이용, 축산현장에 맞는 조건에서 암모니아 흡탈착 효율 및 순도를 평가하는 연구가 더 활발히 진행되어야 할 것이다. 아울러 암모니아 회수를 극대화하기 위한 효과적인 전/후처리 공정도 병행되어야 한다.

Struvite precipitation has been proven to be an effective method in removing and recovering ammonia nitrogen (N) and phosphate phosphorus (P) from wastewater. In this study, effects of pH, molar ratios and pre-treatment of effluent of anaerobically digested swine wastewater were investigated to improve struvite crystallization. The magnesium : ammonium : phosphate ratio of 1.2 : 1.0 : 1.0 was found to be optimal, yet the molar ratio in the wastewater was 1 : 74.9 : 1.8. From the analysis, the optimum pH was between 8.0 and 9.0 for maximal phosphate P release and from 8.0 to 10.0 for maximal ammonia N and phosphate P removal from real wastewater. Analysis from Visual MINTEQ predicted the pH range of 7-11 for ammonia N and phosphate P removal and recovery as struvite. For pre-treatment, microwave pre-treatment was ineffective for phosphate P release but ultrasound pre-treatment showed up to 77.4% phosphate P release at 1,000 kJ/L of energy dose. Precipitates analysis showed that phosphorus and magnesium in the collected precipitate had almost same values as theoretical values, but the ammonia content was less than the theoretical value.
