The chemical and meteorological effects on the concentration variations of air pollutants ($O_3$ and its precursors) were evaluated based on ground observation data in coastal and inland regions, Busan during springs and summers of 2005-2006. For the purpose of this study, study areas were classified into 5 categories: coastal area (CA), industrial area (IA), downtown area (DA), residential area (RA), and suburban area (SA). Two sites of Dongsam (DS) and Yeonsan (YS) were selected for the comparison purpose between the coastal and inland regions. $O_3$ concentrations in CA and SA were observed to be highest during spring (e.g., 40 ppb), whereas those in DA and RA were relatively low during summer (e.g., $22\sim24$ ppb). It was found that $O_3$ concentrations in IA were not significantly high although high VOCs (especially toluene of about 40 ppb) and $NO_x$ ($\geq$ 35 ppb) were observed. On the other hand, the concentration levels of $O_3$ and $PM_{10}$ at the DS site were significantly higher than those at the YS site, but $NO_x$ was slightly lower than that at the YS site. This might be caused by the photochemical activity and meteorological conditions (e.g., sea-land breeze and atmospheric stagnance). When maximum $O_3$ (an index of photochemical activity) exceeds 100 ppb, the contribution of secondary $PM_{10}\;((PM_{10})_{SEC})$ to total observed $PM_{10}$ concentrations was estimated up to 32% and 17% at the DS and YS sites, respectively. In addition, the diurnal variations of $(PM_{10})_{SEC}$ at the DS site were similar to those of $O_3$ regardless of season, which suggests that they are mostly secondary $PM_{10}$ produced from photochemical reactions.

The reduction characteristics of $NO_2$ to NO are experimentally studied over a platinum-based catalyst, especially at lower temperatures below about $200^{\circ}C$. In the present work, two types of steady-state experiments, engine bench and synthetic gas bench tests, are carried out in sequence. Steady-state engine bench tests with the DOC mounted on a light duty 4-cylinder 2.0 liter turbocharged diesel engine are performed and prove that CO plays a major role in $NO_2$ abatement at temperatures below the light-off temperature of CO oxidation, about $200^{\circ}C$. Synthetic gas bench tests are then performed using synthetic gas mixtures with CO, $C_3H_6$, NO, $NO_2$, $O_2$, $H_2O$ and $N_2$ in the $140{\sim}450^{\circ}C$ T-range and show that both CO and $C_3H_6$ are capable of reducing $NO_2$. It is noted that the reaction rate of $NO_2$ with $C_3H_6$ is much higher than that with CO. At temperatures below about $200^{\circ}C$, the reduction of $NO_2$ to NO is promoted with increasing CO concentration and $NO_2$/$NO_X$ ratio and with decreasing $O_2$ concentration, as well as with the presence of $H_2O$.

본 실험의 목적은 생물반응기를 이용한 현삼 종묘의 기내증식과 기내순화에 관여하는 적정 배지조건을 검토하여 추후 종묘의 건전한 생육과 안정적 생산에 활용할 수 있는 기초자료를 얻고자 하였으며 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 생물반응기에서 4주간 배양한 신초의 발근과 생장은 1X MS 액체배지에서 양호하였으나 6주간 배양한 신초는 1/10 MS 배지에서 좋았다 2. MS 고체배지에서의 잎 전개율은 생물반응기에서 6주간 배양한 신초가 4주간 배양한 신초보다 높았다. 3. 잎이 전개된 신초의 수와 신초당 잎의 수는 1X MS 고체배지에서 많았으나 유리화도 1/2X MS 고체 배지에서 보다 많이 발생하였다. 4. 전반적으로 보아 신초의 지상부 생육은 MS 기본배지에서 양호하였으나 지하부 생육은 암모니아 태 질소를 1/4로 줄인 배지에서 좋았다. 5. 암모니아태 질소를 1/4로 줄이고 아가농도를 1.2%로 조정한 배지에서 신초의 생육이 좋았으나 유리화가 많이 발생하였다. 6. 신초의 생육과 순화는 1X MS배지에 1.6% 아가농도가 좋았으나 1/2X MS에 1.2%의 아가를 첨가한 경우보다 유리화가 많이 나타났기 때문에 신초의 순화는 1/2 MS 기본배지에 아가농도를 1.2%로 한 배지가 가장 적합한 것으로 생각되었다.

In this paper, the study of effects of flow parameters on flame structure and NOx emission concentration was performed in co-axial. laminar partially premixed methane/air flames. Such (low parameters as equivalence ratio(${\Phi}$), fuel split percentage($\sigma$), and mixing distance(x/D$\_$i/) were defined as a premixing degree and varied within ${\Phi}$=1.36∼9.52, $\sigma$=50∼100, and x/D$\_$i/=5∼20. The image of OH$\^$*/ and NOx concentration were obtained with an ICCD camera and a NOx analyzer. The flame structure observations show a categorization of partially premixed flames into three distinct flame regimes corresponding to ${\Phi}$<1.7(premixed flame structure), 1.7<${\Phi}$<3.3(hybrid structure), and ${\Phi}$>3.3(diffusion flame structure existing a luminous sooting region) at $\sigma$=75%, and x/D$\_$i/=10. As o decreases from 100% to 50%, and x/D$\_$i/ decreases, nonpremixed flame structure appear at low equivalence ratio relatively. In addition, the measured emissions for NOx rise steeply from ${\Phi}$=1.7, to ${\Phi}$=3.3, then constants ${\Phi}$>4.76. NOx emissions decrease with increase the level of premixing level. In conclusion, the main effect on flame structure and NOx production was at first equivalence ratio(${\Phi}$), and next fuel split percentage($\sigma$), and finally mixing distance(x/D$\_$i/).

The diurnal variations of $O_3$ and $NO_2$ in an urban park and the effects of air temperature and wind speed on the diurnal variations are investigated. $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations were observed at a site in an urban park of Seoul from 27 July 2015 to 9 August 2015. The $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations observed in the urban park are compared to those observed at the Gangnam air quality monitoring station (AQMS). The $O_3$ concentration is higher in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS in the daytime because the amount of $O_3$ dissociated by NO is smaller as well as partly because the amount of $O_3$ produced in the oxidation process of biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is larger in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS. The $NO_2$ concentration is lower in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS during day and night because the observation site in the urban park is relatively far from roads where $NO_x$ is freshly emitted from vehicles. The difference in $NO_2$ concentration is larger in the daytime than in the nighttime. To examine the effects of air temperature and wind speed on the diurnal variations of $O_3$ and $NO_2$, the observed $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations are classified into high or low air temperature and high or low wind speed days. The high $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations in the daytime appear for the high air temperature and low wind speed days. This is because the daytime photochemical processes are favorable when the air temperature is high and the wind speed is low. The scatter plots of the daytime maximum $O_3$ and minimum $NO_2$ concentrations versus the daytime averages of air temperature and wind speed show that the daytime maximum $O_3$ and minimum $NO_2$ concentrations tend to increase as the air temperature increases or the wind speed decreases. The daytime maximum $O_3$ concentration is more sensitive to the changes in air temperature and wind speed in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS.

Seasonal variation of major inorganic ions in the greater Seoul area was estimated using a photochemical box model and a gas/aerosol equilibrium model with emphasis on semi -volatile nitrate. Pollutant emission was determined by season by comparing the predicted concentration with the measurement one obtained for a year from the late 1996. The results showed that particulate nitrate was the highest in summer but about 40% of total nitrate was present in the gas phase. This was due to volatilization at high temperature since ammonia was sufficient to neutralize all nitrate regardless of season. As relative humidity in summer was higher than the deliquescence point, particulate ion concentration with water was two times higher than that in other season. So called ‘NOx disbenefit’ indicating increase in particulate ion concentration with decrease in NOx emission was evident especially in winter.

도시가스를 원료로 수소를 제조하여 연료전지에 활용할 경우에 도시가스에 포함된 황화합물이 개질기의 촉매와 연료전지의 전극에 독으로 작용하므로 금속이온이 담지 된 $\beta$-제올라이트(BEA)로 황화합물 흡착 제거를 수행하였다. 담지 된 금속염의 농도, 종류에 따라 파과흡착량이 달라졌으며, $AgNO_3$이 담지 된 흡착제가 실험에 사용된 흡착제 중 가장 높은 파과흡착량을 나타내었다(41.1 mg/g). 그러나 $Ni(NO_3)_2$, $Fe(NO_3)_3$, $Co(NO_3)_2$와 같은 금속염이 담지 된 BEA도 $AgNO_3/BEA$와 비교할 수준의 황화합물 흡착량을 나타냈다. $AgNO_3/BEA$ 흡착제 특성 분석과 온도 영향성 실험 및 X선 광전자 분광기(x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, XPS) 분석을 통하여 흡착제와 황화합물 사이에 작용하는 힘은 금속이온과 황화합물간의 화학적 상호작용보다 물리적 상호작용이 우세한 것으로 나타났다.

가스 중에 포함되어 있는 질소산화물을 안전하게 처리하기 위하여 저온 플라즈마 반응기를 제작하여 반응기내에 공급되는 반응물질의 유량과 방전주입전력량에 대한 장치의 특성을 실험적으로 조사하고, 유효성을 검정하였다. 반응가스는 $NO/N_2$ 혼합가스와 $N_2/O_2$ 혼합가스를 이용하여 초기 NO 농도를 설정하고, 유속을 1~4 l/min으로 공급하였다. 반응물질의 유량이 증가할 때 NO의 감소율이 낮고, 방전주입전력이 높을 때 NO의 분해가 용이하였다. 또한 반응물질의 지연시간이 길고 방전주입전력이 높을수록 NO의 분해에너지 효율이 높았으며, 유량이 많고 방전 주입 전력량이 증가할수록 오존의 생성량이 증가하였다.

Background: Antibiotics are widely used to treat animals from infections. After fertilizing, antibacterials can remain in the soil while adversely affecting the soil microorganisms. The concentration of oxytetracycline (OTC) in the soil and its effect on the soil microbial community was assessed. To assess the impact of OTC on the soil microbial community, it was added to the soil at concentrations of 50, 150, and 300 mg kg^-1 and incubated for 35 days. Results: The concentration of OTC added to the soil decreased from 150 to 7.6 mg kg^-1 during 30 days of incubation, as revealed by LC-MS. The deviations from the control values in the level of substrate-induced respiration on the 5th day of the experiment were, on average, 26, 68, and 90%, with OTC concentrations at 50, 150, and 300 mg kg^-1, respectively. In samples with 150 and 300 mg kg^-1 of OTC, the number of bacteria from the 3rd to 14th day was 2-3 orders of magnitude lower than in the control. The addition of OTC did not affect the fungal counts in samples except on the 7th and 14th days for the 150 and 300 mg kg^-1 contaminated samples. Genes tet(M) and tet(X) were found in samples containing 50, 150, and 300 mg kg^-1 OTC, with no significant differences in the number of copies of tet(M) and tet(X) genes from the OTC concentration. Conclusions: Our results showed that even after a decrease in antibiotic availability, its influence on the soil microbial community remains.
