Abstract:
The present invention relates to a mixture for inhibiting the growth of algae which contains a ceramic powder for generating anions, and to an antifouling paint constituting an antifouling system employing the same, and it relates to a production method for such an antifouling paint. Specifically, the mixture for inhibiting the growth of algae of the present invention relates to a mixture for inhibiting the growth of algae which comprises tourmaline and monazite powders for generating anions, and zirconia for releasing stable anions from these ceramic powders, and also sulphur-metal soap for promoting the activity of the released anions. When an antifouling staff gauge was produced using the antifouling paint of the present invention and was then tested, it proved possible to solve the problem of the inability to read the markings of gauges due to the accretion of algae.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and a method for measuring liquid level by image, and more particularly to a system and a method for measuring liquid level by image, which is capable of measuring a liquid level accurately and automatically by photographing a proximity of liquid surface where a staff gage contacts the liquid using an image capturing apparatus, such as a camera, being located apart from the liquid to be measured, and by analyzing the photographed footage. The system for measuring liquid level by image comprises: a staff gage installed in the liquid; an image capturing part provided with a distance from where the staff gage is installed and capturing an image by photographing a proximity of liquid surface where the staff gage is installed; and a level recognition part controlling a capture of the image, wherein the level recognition part receives the image captured by the image capturing part and determines the liquid level.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a biofilm reactor containing a spiral structure and a water treatment device using the same. The biofilm reactor of the present invention comprises: a water inlet pipe; an air inlet pipe; and an outlet pipe which discharges water and air that has entered through the inlet pipes and passed through the inside of the reactor. In order to induce the flow of air bubbles from the air inlet pipe and raise the oxygen transfer rate by increasing residence time, the spiral structure is inserted inside the reactor, wherein the spiral structure forms a spiral flow path from the air inlet pipe to the outlet pipe. Also, since the biofilm is formed on the spiral structure through adhesion of microorganisms, the microorganism growth conditions for both suspended growth and attached growth are prepared at the same time. Moreover, dissolved oxygen concentration in water is efficiently increased without consumption of power for stirring. Also, the invention has an effect of increasing and maintaining the concentration of microorganisms.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a measuring device comprising: a float body (110) moving together with a body of water; a GPS receiving unit (120) mounted in the float body (110) for receiving GPS location information; and a location and time information transmission unit (130) for transmitting the received information of the GPS location and the measured time; and to a measuring system employing the same. Advantages of the present invention include a significant reduction in errors compared to the convention depending on the visual observation, a rendering of the requirement of multiple workers for the measurement unnecessary, a reduction in working time due to the possible simultaneous measurement even in the case multiple floats are dropped, a precise measuring capability even in rainy weather or at night, and a minimization of errors measured even in flood seasons in which the flow rate is fast and rapidly changed.
