This work deals with a controlled auto-ignition (CAI) single cylinder gasoline engine, focusing on the extension of operating conditions. The fuel is injected indirectly into electrically heated inlet air flow. In order to keep a homogeneous air-fuel mixing, the fuel injector is cooled by the water of a specially designed coolant passage. The engine emission characteristics were investigated under the wide range of operating conditions such as 32 to 63 in the air-fuel ratio, 1000 to 1800 rpm in the engine speed, and 150 to $180^{\circ}C$ in the inlet air temperature. The ultra lean-burn can be achieved by the auto-ignition of gasoline fuel due to the heated inlet air in the compression ignition gasoline engine. It is confirmed that the emission concentrations of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide can be significantly reduced by CAI combustion compared with the combustion of a conventional spark ignition engine.

The Anaerbic Anoxic/oxic process is one of the biological treatment methods to remove nitrogen and phosphorus effectively which are nutritional elements for eutrophication. Supernatant of primary sediment of Anaerobic digester is used as a carbon source instead of methanol methanol supply in usual A$_{2}$/O process. The efficiency of the following treatment processes are as follow : 1) Changing recycle ratio in the usual A$_{2}$/O process without the stage of Anaerobic digester. 2) Changing recycle ratio in the usual A$_{2}$/O process with the supernatant supply of the Anaerobic digester. In the result of comparison, changing recycle ratio is almost no effect in the removal of phosphorus, however the effect of removal in nitrogenous substance are remarkable, and the effect of Anaerobic digester is not as effective as expected because the BOD removed in the digester partly, the rate of phosphorus to the BOD exceed pertinent range.

도시화와 산업화로 인해 하수처리장으로 유입되는 하수 내 질소 농도가 증가함에 따라 부영양화 발생, 수생태계에 독성을 미치는 등의 악영향의 정도 또한 증가하고 있다. 고농도의 질소가 포함된 하수를 처리하기 위해 생물학적 질소 제거 공정에 대한 연구가 다방면으로 진행되고 있다. 기존의 생물학적 질소 제거 공정에 있어 산소공급과 외부탄소원 보충에 따른 상당한 비용이 요구된다. 이러한 측면에서 경제적인 개선이 이루어진 고도의 질소 제거 공정이 요구됨에 따라 최근 기존의 질산화·탈질 공정 보다 효율적이고 경제적인 혐기성 암모늄 산화 공정(ANaerobic AMMonium OXidation, ANAMMOX)이 제안되었다. 본 연구에서는 수처리공정에서의 ANAMMOX 공정의 안정성을 확인하고, Mainstream ANAMMOX 공정구현을 위한 암모니아성 질소(NH4+) 대비 아질산성 질소(NO2-) 비율을 도출하는데 목적이 있다. 선행연구에서 제시된 기질비율을 바탕으로 산정한 비율을 적용해 실험실 규모의 Mainstream ANAMMOX 반응조를 운전하였다. Initial 구간에서 NH4+ 제거효율은 58~86%, 평균 제거효율은 70%였다. Advanced 구간에서 NH4+ 제거효율은 94~99%, 평균 제거효율은 95%였다. 연구 결과 NH4+/NO2- 비율이 증가함에 따라, Mainstream ANAMMOX 공정의 안정성이 확보되어 NH4+ 제거효율 및 총질소(TN) 제거효율이 증가하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었다. 결과적으로, 본 연구결과는 이후 수처리공정에서의 ANAMMOX 공정 적용과 공정 안정성 확보에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

To evaluate the impact of effluents from land-based fish farms on the coastal ocean of Wando, Korea, we analyzed inorganic nutrients, particulate organic carbon (POC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in the effluent and influent of land-based fish farms during the summer (July) of 2021. The average concentrations of nutrients (Dissolved inorganic nitrogen, phosphorus, and silicate; DIN, DIP, and DSi, respectively) in the effluents of this study area were 17±3.7 μM, 1.4±0.7 μM, and 14±1.6 μM, respectively. The average concentrations of POC and DOC were 37±22 μM and 81±13 μM, respectively, with POC accounting for about 30% for total organic carbon in effluents. The Reduced Dissolved Inorganic Nitrogen/Total Dissolved Inorganic Nitrogen ratio (0.7), potential short-period index, indicates that the discharge of nutrients excreted by the fish and unconsumed feed into coastal water results in such nutrients being deposited and accumulated in the sediment. Subsequently, this continuous accumulation triggers the release of ammonium ions during organic matter decomposition, and the ammonium-enriched waters that encroach on fish farms as influent seem to be due to the diffusion of high concentrations of ammonium from bottom sediment. Furthermore, we used fluorescence indices to examine the characteristics of organic matter sources, obtaining mean values of 1.54±0.19, 1.06±0.06, and 1.56±0.06 for the humification index, biological index, and fluorescence index, respectively, in the effluent. These results indicate that the organic matters had an autochthonous origin that resulted from microbial decomposition, and such organic matters were rapidly generated and removed by biological activity, likely supplied from the sediment. Our results suggest that the effluent from land-based fish farms could be a potential source of deoxygenation occurrence in coastal areas.

In order to treat leachate from aged landfill site effectively, removal of biologically recalcitrant organic matter and denitrification efficiency were evaluated through the combination of $H_2O_2/O_3$ AOP pretreatment process and UASB process. The results can be summarized as follows. In case of leachate having low COD/N ratio from aged landfill site, it is possible to increase available COD for denitrification in nitrate utilizing denitrification and nitrite utilizing denitrification both by enhancing biodegradability of recalcitrant organic matter as applying $H_2O_2/O_3$ AOP to pretreatment process. In this experiment, it is found that available COD for denitrification can be increased to 1.0 and 0.4 g/day, respectively. Comparison has been made between requiring COD and available COD for denitrification in each experimental stages. It is expected that high rate of denitrification can be achieved with leachate from young landfill site because higher amount of available COD for denotrification is present in the leachate than the amount of requiring COD for denitrification. Especially, In leachate from aged landfill site with low COD/N ratio, it can be concluded that denitrification using nitrite nitrogen can enhance overall denitrification performance efficiently because denitrification using nitrite nitrogen requires less amount of carbon source than denitrification using nitrate nitrogen. Comparing the biogas production rate and nitrogen content of biogas under the condition of same amount of nitrate and nitrite addition, biogas production and nitrogen content of biogas are increased during denitrification after $H_2O_2/O_3$ AOP pretreatment process. Therefore, it can be confirmed that COD/N ratio in the leachate is increased. Applying $H_2O_2/O_3$ AOP as pretreatment system of landfill leachate seems to have little economic benefit because it requires additional carbon source to denitrify ammonia nitrogen in leachate coming from aged landfill site. However, it is possible to apply this pretreatment process to leachate from old landfill site in view of AOP process can achieve removal of biologically recalcitrant organic matter and increase of available COD for denitrification simultaneously.

Structural properties of rf sputtered boron nitride films were studied as a function of deposition parameters such as nitrogen pressure, substrate temperature and substrate bias using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy. Composition and information on chemical bonding of resultant films was determined by XPS. XPS core level spectra showed that ratio of boron to nitrogen varied from 3.11 to 1.45 with respect to partial nitrogen pressure. Curve fitting of XPS spectra revealed three kinds of bonding mechanism of boron in the films. XPS peak positions of both B 1s and N 1s shifted to higher energy with higher nitrogen pressure as well as increase in substrate bias voltage. AES was used to see possible contamination of films by carbon or oxygen as well.

The feasibility of applying the shortcut nitrogen removal process to treat livestock wastewater on individual farms was examined, and appropriate operating parameters were established. As a result,, it was determined that the nitrification reaction was carried out under 550 mg/L of ammonium nitrogen concentration, but it was less effective under conditions of high ammonia concentration. Consequently, it was confirmed that a partial injection of inflow water was necessary to minimize the effects of ammonia toxicity. Following the sequential batch reactor (SBR) operation results, it was difficult to achieve the effluent quality standard without an external carbon source. Also, selection of the appropriate hydraulic retention time was critical for the optimal SBR operation. Following the livestock farm application, with external carbon source injecting, the total nitrogen concentration in the effluent was 85.1 mg/L. This result revealed that the standard could be accomplished through a single treatment on individual livestock farms. The ratio of nitrite nitrogen to ammonia nitrogen in the effluent was verified to be suitable for implementing the anammox process with a 10 days of hydraulic retention time. This study demonstrated the potential applicability of process in the future. However, in order to apply to livestock farms, managing variations in wastewater load across individual farms and addressing reduced nitrogen oxidation efficiency during the winter season are crucial.

The effects of carburizing pressure and gas ratio on vacuum carburizing properties (uniformity and surface characteristics) have been studied through the analyses of carbon concentration, hardness, surface color, surface roughness and type of carbon bonding. AISI 4115 steel specimens were carburized with various pressures (1, 5, and 10 Torr) at different locations (P₁, P₂, P₃, P₄, P₅, and P₆) inside a furnace held at 950 ℃. Since the carburizing pressure represents the density of the carburizing gas, it plays an important role in improving the carburizing uniformity according to locations in the furnace. As the carburizing pressure increased, the carburizing uniformity according to the sample location was improved, but the surface of the carburized specimen was discolored due to the residual acetylene gas, which does not contribute to the carburizing reaction. Therefore, the carburizing uniformity and surface discoloration have been improved by injecting acetylene gas (carburizing gas) and nitrogen gas (non-reactive gas) in a specific ratio.

아민화된 폴리이서이미드(polyetherimide (PEI))막을 실험실에서 합성하여 아민화별로 제조된 막을 이용하여 이산화탄소, 질소, 메탄, 산소, 이산화황의 기체투과도와 확산도 및 용해도를 Time-lag법으로 상온에서 측정하였다. 일반적으로 아민기의 주사슬에 반응되는 아민화율이 증가할수록 분자사이의 공간이 좁아지기 때문에 투과도가 전체적으로 감소했지만, 이산화황은 산 성질의 이산화황과 염기 성질의 아민기의 결합으로 인하여 증가하였다. 건기체에 대한 확산도 및 용해도는 아민화율이 증가할수록 이산화황을 제외한 모든 기체에서 감소하였고 또한 용해도 역시 감소하였다. 그러나 이산화황의 경우 아민화율이 증가하면서 용해도가 증가하게 되어 확산도 또한 증가한 것으로 사료된다. 이산화탄소/질소의 경우 선택도는 아민화율이 3일 경우 60을 나타내었다. 습기체의 경우 상대습도가 100일 때 투과도가 70 barrer을 나타내었고 질소에 대한 선택도는 약 18 정도를 보여주었다.
