This paper deals with the combustion characteristics of flue gas in infared mobile heaters. The experimental work has been performed to obtain the concentration levels and combustion characteristics of flue gas with varying chamber size and room temperature. The experimental results showed that oxygen depletion sensor device was operated at the oxygen concentration level of $18.3\%$ for all the chamber size. The combustion characteristics of oxygen and carbon dioxide show a linearity After 10 minutes the combustion property of carbon monoxide occurs at random without a level of oxygen and carbon dioxide in closed space of the heater. In these results, it is very important to prevent incomplete combustion through a sufficient ventilation, and accident prevention with a reduction of the oxygen and diffusion of toxic carbon monoxide.

During 20 days from November 4 to 28, 1980, the quantities of grease and oil, BOD (biological oxygen demand), COD (chemical oxygen demand), SS (suspended solid) were measured at Grit Chamber, Primary Sedimentation Tank, Secondary Sedimentation Tank in Chung Gye Chun sewage treatment plant. The results were as follows. 1. The average of grease and oil quantities were 251mg/l at Grit Chamber, 185mg/l at Primary Sedimentation Tank, 47mg/l at Secondary Sedimentation Tank. 2. In the secondary treatment for the removal of grease and oil, the removed quantities of grease and oil were increased according to increasing the quantities of influent grease and oil. The regression equation were as follows G.O.removed=0.731 G.O. influent+3.235 (r=0.887) 3. The average of grease and oil removal rate was 76.4% and the standard deviation of grease and oil removal rate daily was 10.6%. 4. G.O. (grease and oil) and BOD, COD, SS showed significant correlationship at Grit Chamber, Primary Sedimentation Tank, Secondary Sedimentation Tank. (P<0.05). 5. In the secondary treatment, effluent grease & oil and other parameters were analyzed by means of Stepwise multiple regression. Multple regression equation for estimates of effluent grease and oil were as follows. $GO_E=-9.1637+2.0380 SS_E+0.068 SS_I$ (r=0.778) 6. The correlative parameters for the effluent grease and oil seem to be the influent SS and the effluent SS. 7. It was estimated that the removal of grease and oil would be improved by means of improvement of suspended solids removal efficiency but it is necessary to inquire further into the study.

The present study was conducted to compare the voltage generation in two-chamber microbial fuel cells (MFCs) with a biocathode where nitrate and oxygen are used as a terminal electron acceptors (TEA) and to investigate the nitrogen removal and the electrochemical characteristics depending on the separators of the MFCs for denitrification. The maximum power density in a biocathode MFC using an anion exchange membrane (AEM) was approximately 40% lower with the use of nitrate as a TEA than when using oxygen. The MFC for denitrification using an AEM allows acetate ($CH_3COO^-$) as a substrate and nitrate ($NO_3{^-}$) as a TEA to be transported to the opposite sides of the chamber through the AEM. Therefore, heterotrophic denitrification and electrochemical denitrification occurred simultaneously at the anode and the cathode, resulting in a higher COD and nitrate removal rate and a lower maximum power density. The MFC for the denitrification using a cation exchange membrane (CEM) does not allow the transport of acetate and nitrate. Therefore, as oxidation of organics and electrochemical denitrification occurred at the anode and at the cathode, respectively, the MFC using a CEM showed a higher coulomb efficiency, a lower COD and nitrate removal rate in comparison with the MFC using an AEM.

Our previous study showed that although the hybrid rocket engine with swirling gaseous oxygen had high performance, a direct injection of LOX with swirl into the combustion chamber of the hybrid rocket engine lowered the performance of the engine, compared to that with gaseous oxygen. In order to clarify this reason, combustion tests of a small PMMA combustor with an inner port diameter of 2 mm were conducted in liquid oxygen flow by comparison with gaseous oxygen flow. Although the oxygen mass fluxes of LOX were about two orders of magnitude larger than those of gaseous oxygen, the fuel regression rate of LOX were remarkably smaller than those of gaseous oxygen. For both liquid and gaseous oxygen, diffusion flames in the port of the grain controlled the combustion process of PMMA in oxygen flow. These results may be explained by the fact that only small amount of LOX vaporized and consumed in the combustion with PMMA while flowing through the port due to relatively larger latent heat of injected liquid oxygen compared to the heat of release by combustion which depended on the burning surface area of PMMA.

Present study deals with performance analysis of an inert gas generator (IGG) which can be used as effective means to suppress fire. The IGG uses a turbo-jet engine to generate inert gas for fire extinguishing. It is generally known that a less degree of oxygen content in the product of combustion will increase the effectiveness of fire extinguishing. An inert gas generator system with water injection has advantages of suffocating and cooling effects that are very important factors for fire extinguishing. Some aspects of influencing parameters, such as, air excess coefficient, compressor pressure ratio, air temperature before combustion chamber, gas temperature after combustion chamber, mass flow rate of water injection etc. on the performance of IGG system are investigated.

In this study, we investigated characteristics of a gas flow and a combustion property during the combustion of a RDF in a pyrolysis melting incinerator with disposal rate of 30 kg/hr. The RDF was pyrolyzed through the pyrolysis chamber at $600^{\circ}C$ of the chamber surface without oxygen condition. The pyrolysis gas was injected in the combustion chamber. It was burned by means of the staged combustion that was injecting secondary and tertiary air in the combustor. We measured the temperatures and the gas components in the combustion chamber while maintaining the air-fuel ratio of 1.3. Finally, we confirm that additional air injection, secondary and tertiary air ratio, was the most important factor to reduce NOx.

A subscale gas generator was designed and manufactured to understand a reason for increased pressure drop of liquid oxygen injectors observed in a technology demonstration model of a 75 ton-class gas generator. A total of 6 hot-firing tests were successfully performed including experimental conditions of design and off-design points. The hot-firing results showed that discharge coefficients of fuel and liquid oxygen remained constant as the mixture ratio varied at a fixed chamber pressure. At a fixed mixture ratio, it was also found that discharge coefficients of fuel and liquid oxygen was constant as the chamber pressure was increased.

ZnO films have been grown easily with the conventional thermal evaporation method on SiO$\_$2/ coated Si wafers. Anhydrous zinc acetate has been used as evaporation source. Zinc-acetate was directly heated in the laboratory-made brass boat. Zinc-acetate was sublimed at the boat temperature of about 220.deg. C. The substrates were heated to 600.deg. C with home made tantalium heater. Oxygen has been flowed into the deposition chamber to change the partial pressure of oxygen. X-ray diffraction patterns showed all the films to be amorphous. The films deposited at high oxygen pressure exhibit higher resistivity than films at low pressure. Energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS) and rutherford backscattering spectrometry(RBS) were conducted on the films to reveal the composition of the ZnO films.
