Conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) do not fully remove micropollutants. Enhanced treatment of sewage effluents is being considered or implemented in some countries to minimize the discharge of problematic micropollutants from WWTPs. Representative enhanced sewage treatment technologies for micropollutant removal were reviewed, including their current status of research and development. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) such as ozonation and UV/H₂O₂ and adsorption processes using powdered (PAC) and granular activated carbon (GAC) were mainly discussed with focusing on process principles for the micropollutant removal, effect of process operation and water matrix factors, and technical and economic feasibility. Pilot- and full-scale studies have shown that ozonation, PAC, and GAC can achieve significant elimination of various micropollutants at economically feasible costs(0.16-0.29 €/m³). Considering the current status of domestic WWTPs, ozonation and PAC were found to be the most feasible options for the enhanced sewage effluent treatment. Although ozonation and PAC are all mature technologies, a range of technical aspects should be considered for their successful application, such as energy consumption, CO₂ emission, byproduct or waste generation, and ease of system construction/operation/maintenance. More feasibility studies considering domestic wastewater characteristics and WWTP conditions are required to apply ozonation or PAC/GAC adsorption process to enhance sewage effluent treatment in Korea.

To utilize waste of squid effectively, antioxidant properities of squid viscera were elucidated. Major fatty acids of total lipid, neutral lipid and phospholipid were $C_{16:0},\;C_{18:1}\;and\;C_{20:5},\;C_{22:6}$ and consisted $63{\sim}71\%$ of total fatty acids. Total lipid did not show significant antioxidant activity when added to the fish oil at the concentration below $5.0\%$, Antioxidant activity of hexane extract was lower than total lipid or tetra carbon chloride-methanol($CCl_4-MeOH$) extract. Extracts with $CCl_4-MeOH$ exerted higher antioxidant activity as the methanol ratio was increased, suggesting that polar lipid plays and important role.

The peroxone process overcomes many of the limitations associated with conventional and advanced water treatment systems using chlorine disinfection and ozone oxidation processes. Ozone and hydrogen peroxide generate highly reactive hydroxyl free radical which oxidize various organic compounds and has highly removal efficiency. The key issue to operate peroxone process is developing the method to achieve high process effectiveness when scavengers that inhibit generation of OH radicals or consume OH radicals are co-existing in the process. Also many studies, to minimize inorganic oxidative by-products such as bromate and to reduce disinfection by-products after chlorination behind peroxone process, are needed. And we should consider the excess residual hydrogen peroxide in the water. On-line instruments and control strategies need to be developed to ensure effective and robust operation under conditions of varying load. If problems above mentioned are solved, peroxone process will be applied diversely for water treatment.

To understand the efficient process of biological nitrogen removal (BNR) system, the structure of bacterial communities in nitrification reactors was analyzed using PCR and terminal restriction fragment length poly morphism (I-RFLP) methods. In this study, we used an advanced treatment system with plotting media, Nutrient Removal Laboratory system, or the rumination type sequencing batch reactor (SBR) system. The terminal restriction fragments of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and other $\beta-proteobacteria$ were observed in all of three BNR systems. The nucleotide sequence analysis of terminal restriction fragments showed that Nitrosomonas and Nitrosolobus were major populations of AOB in SBR system, whereas uncultured $\beta-proteobacteria$ and Cardococcus australiensis were the predominant groups in other two BNR systems. Also the SBR system may be more efficient to enrich AOB. These results indicate that the different structure of bacterial community may be developed depending on the wastewater treatment systems, although the same influent is used.

정수공정은 "원수 -1 침사지 1 전염소 -1 전오존 -1 침전지 1 여과지 1 후오존 1 GAC 4 후염소 1 가정수"로 이루어져 있으며 전처리 공정으로 염 소와 오존을 주입하게 되는데, 여기서 전염소 처리 공정으로 인해 잔류 유리염 소가 수중의 유기물질과 반웅하여 유해성 유기염소 화합물 (i.e.. Trihalomethane, Haloacetonitriles, Chlorophenol 등)을 생성하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이유로 고도 정수처리 공정에서는 강한 산화력을 지닌 대체 산화 제로서 오존을 이용하고 있다. 전오존 처리공정은 OOC와 탁도 제거에 있어 응 집제 주입량을 감소시키는 것과 더불어 전오존 효과 (산화, 생분해 증대, 살균 등)를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 낙동강과 같이 유기물이 많은 원수에 과다한 오존이 주입되면 수중 의 유기물이 저분자화 또는 응집이 어려운 오존 산화물로 변화하여 응집제의 소비가 많아지게 된다. 실제, 오존을 응집 효과에 대해서 pilot plant로 운전한 결과 전오존에 의해 입자성 물질의 제거 효율은 향상된 반면에 유기물 제거는 뚜렷한 효과를 볼 수 없었다고 보고되었다 (류, 1997). 본 연구에서는 물금 지역의 원수와 응집-침전 공정까지 거치는 각각의 처 리수에 대해서 전처리가 응집에 미치는 영향을 천연유기물질 (NOM)의 조성 변화로 파악하였다. 그 방법으로 천연유기물질 (NOM)을 XAD-1, -4 수지를 이 용하여 소수성 물질 (hydrophobic components)과 친수성 물질 (hydrophilic components)로 분리 및 농축하여 용존 유기물이 처리 과정에서 어떻게 변화하 는지를 조사하여 개선된 상수 처리 시스템을 설계하는데 기초 자료를 제공하고 수질 관리 분야에서도 적용하고자 하였다. 상수원수인 물금 지역의 소수성 물질(hydrophobic components)은 75~80%, 친수성 물질(hydrophilic components)은 30~33%정도의 분포를 보였고, 전염소 및 전오존 공정을 거친 처리수에서는 각각 62.2-62.8%, 43.9~49.0% 및 50~ 55%, 40~57% 정도의 분포를 보였다. 그리고 웅집-침전을 거친 처리수에서는 그 분포가 77~82%, 24-48%였다. 전주리 공정을 통하여 소수성 물질(byoghobic components)의 분포가 감 소하는 것을 볼 때 전염소 및 전오존 처리가 용존유기물의 응집에는 오히려 역 효과를 나타내는 것으로 판단된다. 것으로 판단된다.

The effects of different concentrations of tocopherols on the oxidation stability of evening primrose oil (EPO) in the dark $(35{\pm}2^{\circ}C)$ were evaluated by some physicochemical characteristics such as peroxide, conjugated diene value and fatty acid composition. The results of the present study were as follows; Alpha-tocopherol at all concentrations (0.02%, 0.05%, 0.10%) showed a prooxidant effect during autoxidation of EPO. This prooxidant activity of alpha-tocopherol increased as its concentration increased rapidly. Delta-tocopherol showed antioxidant activity as its concentration increases at an early stage of storage. But the activity was fairly poor antioxidant activity and was not greater than antioxidant activity of BHT. However, the antioxidant effect of delta-tocopherol and BHT showed no apparent differences as compared with result of none.

High content of polyunsaturated fatty acid in fish oil makes it very susceptible to oxidation, which prevent fish oil from successful application to food processing or functional foods. To resolve this problem, oxidation stability model of fish oil was developed using the following differential equation : $dp/dt=k{\cdot}p(t){\cdot}[P_{max}\;-\;p(t)]$. This differential equation can be intergrated using analytical techniques to give : $p(t)=P_{max}/[1\;+\;[(P_{max}/P_{(0)})\;-\;-1]{\cdot}EXP(-K_p{\cdot}t)]$. At 50, 60, 70 and $80^{\circ}C,\;K_p$ were 0.00535, 0.01345, 0.02516 and 0.04675, respectively. The proposed model was well agreed with the measured data except for some minor deviations. In addition, $K_p$ was expressed as a function of temperature : $K_p=(1/P_{max})EXP\;[1\;-\;(8148/T)+20.1]$. Where T is absolute temperature($^{o}K$).

The most advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are based on reactivity of strong and non-selective oxidants such as hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}OH$). Decomposition of typical DNAPL chlorinated compounds (TCE, PCE) using various advanced oxidation processes ($UV/Fe^{3+}$-chelating agent/$H_2O_2$ process, $UV/H_2O_2$ process) was approached to develop appropriate methods treating chlorinated compound (TCE, PCE) for further field application. $UV/H_2O_2$ oxidation system was most efficient for degrading TCE and PCE at neutral pH and the system could remove 99.92% of TCE after 150 min reaction time at pH 6($[H_2O_2]$ = 147 mM, UVdose = 17.4 kwh/L) and degrade 99.99% of PCE within 120 min ($[H_2O_2]$ = 29.4 mM, UVdose = 52.2 kwh/L). Whereas, $UV/Fe^{3+}$-chelating agent/$H_2O_2$ system removed TCE and PCE ca. > 90% (UVdose = 34.8 kwh/L, $[Fe^{3+}]$ = 0.1 mM, [Oxalate] = 0.6 mM, $[H_2O_2]$ = 147 mM) and 98% after 6hrs (UVdose = 17.4 kwh/L, $[Fe^{3+}]$ = 0.1 mM, [Oxalate] = 0.6 mM, $[H_2O_2]$ = 29.4 mM), respectively. We improved the reproduction system with addition of UV light to modified Fenton reaction by increasing reduction rate of $Fe^{3+}$ to $Fe^{2+}$. We expect that the system save the treatment time and improve the removal efficiencies. Moreover, we expect the activity of low molecular organic compounds such as acetate or oxalate be effective for maintaining pH condition as neutral. This oxidation system could be an economical, environmental friendly, and practical treatment process since the organic compounds and iron minerals exist in nature soil conditions.

The UV/chlorine process is a UV-based advanced oxidation process for removing various organic pollutants in water. The process is becoming increasingly popular because of its effectiveness in practice. It is important to the safe and efficient operation of a UV/chlorine process that the optimal operating conditions for both target removal objective and saving energy are determined. Treatment efficiency of target compounds in UV/chlorine process was mainly affected by pH and scavenging factor. In this study, kinetic based mathematical model considering water characteristics and electrical energy dose calculations model was developed to predict of treatment efficiency and optimal operating conditions. The model equation was validated for the UV/chlorine process at the laboratory scale and in pilot tests at water treatment plants.

The concept and characteristics of the propulsion systems for the next generation flight vehicles are described in this paper, where Hey are grouped into air breathing engine, rocket engine and combined cycle engine according to the feeding system of oxidizer. Air breathing engine has its good reusability and superior performance at low altitude, but its usage is limited at high altitude due to the decreased air density. Rocket engine can be used over the wide range of altitude, but it has disadvantages in low specific impulse and high cost. The several types of combined cycle engine, which are being developed by the leading countries in the aerospace, are highlighted as a remarkable candidate for the next generation propulsion system.
