  • 본 연구에서는 유류-유사 분리기내에서 유체의 흐름거동을 상용 3차원 수치모형인 FLOW-3D를 이용하여 해석하였다. 유류-유사 분리기는 도심지의 우수로 인한 유출발생시 동반되는 이물질을 여과시키는 기능을 가진 지하구조물이다. 우수로 인한 유출이 발생하여 유류-유사 분리기내로 흘러들어오는 유입수는 3차원적 거동을 하고 다양한 흐름특성을 갖는다. 따라서, 분리기내에서의 흐름거동을 정확히 해석하는데 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 정류판(baffle)과 유류흡착기(oil skimmer)로 구성된 유류-유사 분리기에서의 유류와 유사를 포함하고 있는 유출수의 복잡한 거동을 해석하기 위해 수치모의를 실시하였다. 유류와 유사에 대한 포착률(oil and grit trap)은 유류-유사 분리기내에서 유체의 흐름거동과 관계된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 유류와 유사의 포착률을 향상시키기 위한 수치모의의 기초적인 단계로서 유류-유사 분리기내에서 유류흡착기(oil skimmer)를 설치한 경우와 설치하지 않은 경우에 대한 유체의 흐름거동을 FLOW-3D를 이용하여 3차원 수치모의를 실시하였다. 수치모의를 통해 유류흡착기의 유무에 따른 유류-유사 분리기내에서의 흐름거동을 알 수 있었으며, 유류흡착기를 설치한 경우엔 유류 흡착기에 의해 여과될 수 있는 유류와 유사에 대한 각각의 포획률이 높아짐을 알 수 있었다.

  • Oil spills caused by the accidents have been occurred from house and factory waste, grounded tanker, the rupture of storage tank and oil pipelines, the deterioration of various industrial facilities, etc. Many oil spills result in contamination of shorelines and workplace. Fire and explosion may happen from these spills. There are several technologies used for clean-up application, which include use of oil dispersing agents, absorbents, solidifiers, booms and skimmers by physical, chemical, and biological methods. Methods for oil spill clean-up operation are classified into the absorption type, gel type and self-swelling type. Porous materials with oil absorptive properties are classified into micropore, mesopore, and macropore depending on their pore sizes. Recently, new porous materials with smaller size have been developed, but the selective oil absorption in water-in-oil interface demonstrates the macro pore size. In this study oil absorption effects were evaluated using the organic porous materials with a complex function of gel type and swelling type. Samples were subjected to analysis by FT-IR spectroscopy and were characterized in terms of gel formation and morphologies. Oil sorption capacity, pressure retention force and gel strength were also measured. From these results, the physicochemical reactivity before and after gelation was verified and the industrial applications of clean-up operation were suggested.

  • The main functions of oil booms are to prevent spreading of the oil slick and to increase the recovering efficiency of oil skimmers. The oil-containment capability of a floating boom on an open sea is affected by environmental parameters such as waves, currents and winds, as well as the motion characteristics of a boom section. In this study, a series of tests were conducted for three kinds of booms (internal foam type, air inflatable type, self-expanded type) at the open sea off Yosu, and the results are presented. Motion characteristics and oversplashing phenomenon were observed for each boom in different environmental conditions. And the tension exerted on towing line of the boom was also measured with a systematic varitation of towing speeds and gap ratios.

  • 흡착식 유회수기의 운전조건을 결정하는데 있어서 스키머의 구동속도와 기름의 물리.화학적 성질에 따른 스키머의 유회수율을 예측하는 것이 필요하다. 이 문제에 대한 이론적인 접근으로 수직구동 평판상에 부착된 기름층의 자유표면유동을 두가지 방법으로 조사하였다. 그 하나는 표면코팅시 얇은 유막에 대하여 수행하는 정상유동해석이며, 다른 방법으로는 스키머 표면유막에 대한 안정성해석이다. 해석은 기름층이 충분히 두꺼워서 스키머는 기름층에서만 작동한다고 가정하였다. 이론추정 결과는 롤러타입의 스키머에 대하여 계측한 실험치와 비교하였는데, 유막의 안정성해석 결과가 유회수기와 같이 상대적으로 고레이놀즈수에서 작동하는 유동의 경우에는 정상해석보다 좀 더 합리적으로 유막의 두께를 산정함을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 물위에 떠있는 얇은 유막층의 유회수성능도 실험하여서 주어진 유막두께에 대하여 롤러의 최적구동속도를 함께 조사하였다.

  • The amount of petroleum consumption has been Increased according to the industrialization and It leads to the increase of the possibility of marine oil pollution. In Korea, some countermeasures including oil skimmer, gelling agent and herding agent of oil have been used for the remediation of the pollution. However, most of them have lets of shortcomings in the application under in-situ condition, because they are sensitive to the situation such as geographical feature, the wind and the tide. In reported literature, the natural powdered oil absorbent which is made of peat moss is an effective mean to clean spilled oil from lake or coast. However, the peat moss is a natural resource which is only Produced from a specific cold weather are like Canada. This indicates that the alternative materials which is readily obtained from everywhere are needed for powdered oil absorbent. Therefore. in the study, same natural materials including pine leaves and straw are tested as the alternative materials for the absorbent. The raw materials were dried and treated by heat at various temperature during several Periods and then. shattered by a grain cracking machine. The oil sorption capacity of the prepared materials was compared according to the methods of heat treatment and their sizes. The proportion of hydrogen cyanide to combustion of the absorbents was measured to confirm their final disposal methods. The biodegradability test of the absorbents was carried our to evaluate possibility of a side pollution in the coast. In was found that the heat treatment of pine leaves enhanced the capacity of oil sorption and decreased the water sorption. The maximum oil sorption was observed for the material treated at 18$0^{\circ}C$for 60 min. The amount of hydrogen cyanide from the combustion were 0.09ml/g, 0.07ml/g for pine leaves and straw respectively meaning that the final disposal by combustion might be feasible. The amount or organic carbon extracted from pine leaves during 7 days was up to 0.015g organic carbon from one gram of pine leaves. but the degradation was as fast as for glucose. It is concluded that the pine leaves can be served as a good raw material for the powdered oil absorbent like peat moss.

  • For most machine tools, it is necessary to remove chips and coolant oil because it they will continue to be created during the manufacture of workpieces. Existing products that are in use are installed and used as they reflect depending on the characteristics of each device separately. This study proposes a method to remove the security chip as well as developing an integrated system capable of reducing coolant damage. The Leverage AutoCAD and CATIA program was used for 2D and 3D design, shapes were identified by utilizing the KeyShot program, and the load and displacement analysis of the development apparatus was performed utilizing the ANSYS program. After the prototype underwent sufficient design review, the mixed oil separation device had a complete sensor control program using the LabVIEW program. The chip design process for transferring experiments and experiments on the mixed oil cooling device were developed for performance tests of the product. The final product resulted in an increase in space utilization during commercialization, reduced installation costs, and caused social effects such as pulmonary flow reduction, which, through the economic costs, reduces pollution, resulting in various benefits to the industry, such as deceased errors in the workplace decreases.
