The study on the nitrogen adsorption, surface properties and water adsorption capacity of the carbonaceous desiccants derived from phenolic resin was carried out. In the nitrogen adsorption study on the carbonaceous desiccants, Type II isotherm for each sample was obtained. Furthermore, the adsorbed volume decrease with water washing of the desiccant. The $S_{BET}$ of the carbonaceous desiccants was $648.7m^2/g$ before washing and $189.3m^2/g$ after washing, respectively. The morphology of needlelike formation before washing and spherical particle after washing with water were observed from SEM micrographs. Finally, from the water adsorption effects, the percentage of the water loading capacity was 25-63%, and the capacity was good at relatively low humidity.

본 논문은 태양열이용 냉난방시스템 중에서 실제로 액체흡수제를 재생하는 재생탑 내의 충진층에 있어서의 열 및 물질전달의 실험치와 이론적 해석에 의한 결과치와의 비교를 나타내고 있다.특히 물질전달의 극대화를 위하여 충진층 내에서 공기와 흡수제의 접촉면적을 크게 할 필요가 있는데,이를 위해서 본 실험에서는 직경이 3cm인 플라스틱제 충진재를 사용하였으며, 흡수제로는 저농도의 염화리튬 수용액이 사용 되었다. 충진층 내에서의 최적 높이를 예측하기 위하여 해석의 모델인 실험장치를 직접 제작하여 실험을 수행하였고, 이론 해석에 있어서 체적 열전달을 고려한 정상상태를 모델화하여 해석하였다. 이 결과, 충진층 내에서 실험치와 이론적인 계산치가 잘 일치함을 알 수 있었으며, 충진층의 높이가 2m 이상인 경우에는 높이에 따른 재생량의 차이가 없어서 없음을 알 수 있었다.

In order to find out whether solar air conditioning system could be applied to building or not, the performance and evaluation on thermal environment of the system suggested was done during summer. A solar model house was constructed to find out the performance and thermal environment evaluation when it actually operated outside. As a result, regeneration rate increased rapidly when LiCl solution temperature was over $50^{\circ}C$ and the regeneration rate was $13\sim15kg$ during 9 hours operation. Furthermore the dehumidification rate was 12kg at maximum during 10 hours operating of a dehumidifier and indoor temperature and relative humidity was $28.4^{\circ}C$ and 39.1% in average respectively. On evaluation of thermal environment during summer, PMV value was slightly high, but thermal sensation vote was 71% within the comfort zone.

Since the dehydration packages of offshore plant deal directly with oil & gas, there is a great risk of fire and explosion during operation. Therefore, this study performed risk assessment through HAZard & OPerability (HAZOP) for solid desiccant dehydration package that can remove water component of natural gas in offshore floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facilities below 0.1 ppmv. The risk matrix was determined by dividing the likelihood and the severity into five levels separately by asset, life, environment and reputation. The piping & instrumentation diagram (P&ID) of the dehydration package was divided into 9 nodes. Total 22 deviations were assessed in consideration of the adsorption and desorption conversion cycle. A risk assessment based on deviations revealed 14 major hazards. Three representative types of hazards were open/close failure of the control valve, control failure of the heater, and abnormal operation of the regeneration gas cooler. Finally, we proposed the installation of additional safety devices to improve safety against these major hazards, such as safety instrumented functions, alarms, etc.

A hybrid desiccant cooling system (HDCS) that uses a heat pump driven by district heating instead of a sensible rotor can provide an increased energy efficiency in summer. In this paper, the summer operation costs and initial costs of both the HDCS and traditional systems are analyzed using annual equal payments, and national benefits are found from using the HDCS instead of traditional systems. In the analysis results, the HDCS reduces the operation cost by 30 compared to the traditional systems, and each HDCS unit has 0.079 TOE per year of primary energy savings and 0.835 $TCO_2$ per year of $CO_2$ emission reduction more than the traditional systems. If HDCSs were to be installed in 680,000 households by 2020, this would produce a replacement power effect of 463 MW. Despite this savings effect, HDCSs require a government subsidy before they can be supplied because the initial cost is higher than that of traditional systems. Thus, this paper calculates suitable subsidies and suggests a supply method for HDCSs considering the national benefits.

Most of the currently available rice threshers in Korea are of head-feeding type originally developed for threshing paddy at grain moisture content of 15 to 17% on wet basis. And prevailing rice harvesting system is swathing or cutting and bundling upright rice crop at a maturity stage of grain moisture content of ca. 28 to 20%, followed by transient natural drying in the field and threshing at grain moisture content of about 17%. The system often allows rather high field loss of rice both quantitatively and qualitatively. These necessitate use of a preharvest desiccant, and diquat has been registered recently as a rice desiccant. Aim of the present study is to determine the best time and rate of diquat application and to evaluate its utility as a rice desiccant under its optimal usage conditions in Korea. Diquat was not so effective for japonica rice varieties while it was very effective for the new varieties bred from indica x japonica crosses. The best time of application was the period from 2 days before to 3 days after physiological maturity of grain (moisture content of 28% w.b.) and the optimal rate was about 330g of diquat ion/ha. Applying diquat at the right time and rate dropped grain moisture to 15 to 16% (w.b.) within a week after treatment in contrast to that of 20 to 24% in untreated rice. Desiccation of rice crop with diquat resulted in 10 to 15% increase in grain resistance to shattering and significant reduction in percent green rice. However, there was no reduction in milled rice yield and percent whole kernel and was no change in the percent chalky rice and percent tinted rice. Diquat use appears highly desirable, if there is no residue problem which has not been studied in the present study.
