The effect of $O_3$, $O_3/pH$, and $O_3/H_2O_2$, $O_3/UV$, and $H_2O_2/UV$ advanced oxidation process(AOP) were investigated for the treatment of tetrachloroethylen(PCE) at various condition. The removal efficiency of 10, 20, and 30ppm PCE by ozonation were almost same, only about 60%. And pseudo first-order rate constants, ko for overall oxidation was about 0.097($min^{-1}$). In the $O_3/pH$ AOP experiment for the 20ppm PCE, the removal rate of PCE increased with the increase of pH. However, mineralization rate of PCE at pH 7 was higher than at pH 10. In the $O_3/H_2O_2$ AOP, the removal rate of PCE was the highest at peroxide-to-ozone dosage ratio of about 0.9, which PCE was removed over 99.95%. Despite 42% of PCE was directly photolyzed by the UV irradiation, the removal efficiency of PCE by $O_3/UV$ AOP was only about 70%. In $H_2O_2/UV$ AOP, the removal efficiency of PCE increased to about 98% in proportion to the $H_2O_2$ injection concentration at constant UV intensity of 5W/l.

In this paper, The optimum oxidation conditions for the formation of Cu-Zn ferrite were investigated using precipitates obtained by the mixture of $CuCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$, $ ZnCl_2$, $FeCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ and NaOH. The precipitates were prepared by coprecipitation method on various temperatures and oxidation conditions. The oxidation products were examined by SEM, XRD, and VSM. The particles obtained at 70($^{\circ}C$) were more spherical and fine than that of prepared at 25($^{\circ}C$), 50($^{\circ}C$), 60($^{\circ}C$), respectively. By $H_2O_2$ oxidation, the saturation magnetization of the powders was little influenced, But, by air oxidation the saturation magnetization of the powders was influenced intricately. According to our experimental data, the saturation magnetization of the powders increased with reaction time and was saturated at 9 hours.

Dichlorodihydrofluorescein ($DCFH_2$) is a widely used probe for intracellular $H_2O_2$. However, $H_2O_2$ can oxidize $DCFH_2$ only in the presence of a catalyst, whose identity in cells has not been clearly defined. We compared the peroxidase activity of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD), cytochrome c, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), $Cu^{2+}$, and $Fe^{3+}$ under various conditions to identify an intracellular catalyst. Enormous increase by bicarbonate in the rate of $DCFH_2$ oxidation distinguished CuZnSOD from cytochrome c and HRP. Cyanide inhibited the reaction catalyzed by CuZnSOD but accelerated that by $Cu^{2+}$ and $Fe^{3+}$. Oxidation of $DCFH_2$ by $H_2O_2$ in the presence of a cell lysate was also enhanced by bicarbonate and inhibited by cyanide. Confocal microscopy of $H_2O_2$-treated cells showed enhanced DCF fluorescence in the presence of bicarbonate and attenuated fluorescence for the cells pre-incubated with KCN. Moreover, DCF fluorescence was intensified in CuZnSOD-transfected HaCaT and RAW 264.7 cells. We propose that CuZnSOD is a potential intracellular catalyst for the $H_2O_2$-dependent oxidation of $DCFH_2$.

In this study, we investigated the UV/H₂O₂ process to treat organic compound-spilled water. In consideration of usage and properties, benzene, toluene, phenol, and methyl ethyl ketone were selected as representative organic compounds. The selected material was first removed by natural volatilization and aeration that simulated the pretreatment of the prcoess. After that, UV/H₂O₂ oxidation experiments were conducted under various H₂O₂ concentration conditions. Benzene and toluene were mostly volatilized before reaching the oxidation process due to high volatility. Considering the volatility, oxidation experiments were performed at an initial concentration of 5 mg/L for benzene and toluene. The UV/H₂O₂ oxidation process achieved 100% of benzene and toluene removal after 20 minutes under all hydrogen peroxide concentration conditions. The phenol was rarely removed from the volatile experiments and oxidation tests were performed at an initial concentration of 50 mg/L. The process showed 100 % phenol removal after 30 minutes under 0.12 v/v% of hydrogen peroxide concentration condition. Methyl ethyl ketone was removed 58 % after 2 hours of volatile experiments. The process showed 99.7% Methyl ethyl ketone removal after 40 minutes under 0.08 v/v% of hydrogen peroxide concentration condition. It was confirmed that the UV/H₂O₂ process showed high decomposition efficiency for the four selected organic compounds, and identified the amount of hydrogen peroxide in classified organic contaminants.

$H_2/O_2$ 비에 따른 Hybrid HVOF 용사된 $Cr_3C_2$-7wt%(NiCr) 용사층의 특성 및 산화거동 This study was performed to investigate the influence of fuel/oxygen ratio (F/O=3.2, 3.0, 2.8) on the characteristics and the oxidation behavior of the hybrid-HVOF sprayed $Cr_3C_2$-7wt%NiCr coatings. Decomposition and the oxidation of the $Cr_3C_2$was occured during spraying. The degree of transformation from $Cr_3C_2$to $Cr_7C_3$ was increased with decreasing the F/O ratio. The microstructural differences of the as sprayed coating with F/O ratio can not be distinguished, However, large pores were diminished and then the coatings became dense by heat treatment. Microhardness of the as-sprayed specimen which sprayed with F/O=3.0 condition was hightest ($Hv_{300}$=1140) and the hardness was increased to 1500 after heat treatment at $600^{\circ}C$ for 50hrs in air. It was supposed that hardness was increased due to the formation of $Cr_2O_3$ within $Cr_3C_2$/$Cr_7C_3$matrix and the densification of coating layer during heat treatment. Apparent activation energy for oxidation was varied from 21.2 kcal$mol^{-1}K^{-1}$ to 23.8 kcal$mol^{-1}K^{-1}$ with respect to the F/O ratio. The surface morphology was changed to porous and oxide chusters were grown after oxidation $1000^{\circ}C$ for 50 hours by the aggressive evolution of gas phase ($CrO_3$ and$CO_2$). The oxide cluster was composed of Ni and Cr.

Surface oxides and intergranular (IG) oxidation phenomena in Alloy 600 depending on hydrogen concentration were characterized to obtain clear insight into the primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) behavior upon exposure to pressurized water reactor primary water. When hydrogen concentration was between 5 and 30 cm³ H₂/kg H₂O, NiFe₂O₄ and NiO type oxides were found on the surface. NiO type oxides were found inside the oxidized grain boundary when hydrogen concentration was 5 cm³ H₂/kg H₂O. However, only NiFe₂O₄ spinel on the surface and Ni enrichment were observed when hydrogen concentration was 30 cm³ H₂/kg H₂O. These results indicate that the oxidation/reduction reaction of Ni in Alloy 600 depending on hydrogen concentration can considerably affect surface oxidation behavior. It appears that the formation of NiO type oxides in a Ni oxidation state and Ni enrichment in a Ni reduction (or metallic) state are common in primary water. It is believed that the above different oxidation/reduction reactions of Ni in Alloy 600 depending on hydrogen concentration can also significantly affect the resistance to PWSCC of Alloy 600.

1, 4-dioxane is a recalcitrant pollutant found in contaminated ground waters and industrial effluents. Conventional water treatment techniques are limited to treat this compound effectively. In this study, $O_3$／$H_2O_2$ oxidation process was used to eliminate 1, 4-dioxane in water and to enhance the biodegradability. Several factors affecting biodegradability enhancement were investigated. The relationship between initial oxidation rate of 1 A-dioxane and BOD enhancement rate has been determined, a kinetic model has been proposed. $H_2O_2$ concentration and pH had a proportional relation with biodegradability of 1, 4-dioxane, but in case of ozone, there was no relationship with biodegradability. 1, 4-Dioxane removal efficiencies had good agreement with the biodegradability.

In this study, a Pd/TiO2 catalyst which oxidized H2 at room temperature without an additional energy source was prepared. And a specific surface area of TiO2 as a support was not proportional to H2 oxidation reaction performance of Pd/TiO2 catalyst. In addition La2O3 was added to Pd/TiO2 catalyst in order to evaluate the performance effect due to the change of catalysts physical properties. A Pd/La2O3-TiO2 was prepared by adding different amounts of La2O3 to TiO2 and CO chemisorption analysis was performed. Compared to the conversion rate (14% at 0.5% H2) of the Pd/TiO2(G) catalyst, the Pd/La2O3-TiO2 catalyst showed 74% which was improved by more than five times. It was found that the larger the metal dispersion of Pd as an active metal is, the more favorable to H2 oxidation reaction is. However, when the added La2O3 amount exceeded 10%, the catalyst performance decreased again. Finally, it was concluded that the physical properties of the Pd/La2O3-TiO2 catalyst have a dominant influence on the catalytic activity until 0.3~0.5% of injected H2 concentrations and the catalyst reaction rate was controlled by substance transfer from 1% or more concentrations of H2.

$ZrO_2$was modified by treating with $H_2SO_4$ and by treating witb $SO_2,\;H_2S,\;and\;CS_2$ followed by oxidation. The oxidized species and oxidation state of sulfur compounds were investigated by infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies. The generation of strong acidity of modified $ZrO_2$ was independent of the sulfur source after oxidation. The sulfur ($SO_4{^{2-}}$) in the highest oxidation state was responsible for the superacidic property of the modified $ZrO_2$.

Ozonation and advanced oxidation($H_2O_2/O_3$) process were investigated under various experimental conditions to improve the efficiency of biological filter used for the treatment of recycled wastewater from aquaculture. Ammonia removal followed the first-order reaction whose reaction rate constant(k) was $2.0{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$ in ozonation. The ammonia removal rate increased according as the bicarbonate alkalinity is increased. About 46% $NH_3$ was oxidized by ozone at 200 mg/L as $CaCO_3$. When alkalinity existed in wastewater, ammonia removal rate by advanced oxidation was very low due to the inhibition effect of bicarbonate. However, when initial pH was adjusted to about 8.2 by 0.1 N KOH, ammonia removal rate was improved higher than that by ozonation. Especially. ammonia removal rate was the highest at $H_2O_2/O_3$ of 0.25 and about 90% of ammonia was removed in 30 min at this ratio as pH was maintained over 9. In the case of wastewater containing ammonia and organic constituents, ammonia removal efficiency by both ozonation and advanced oxidation decreased seriously because organic constituents consumed the oxidant faster than ammonia. In addition the optimal $H_2O_2/O_3$ ratio was changed. Like ammonia removal, DOC(dissolved organic carbon) increased for first 10 min and then decreased slowly because the particulate organic constituents were oxidized rapidly and then produce DOC. Even when the ammonia concentration by twice, oxidation of DOC was not retarded.
