Green Chemistry emerged at the end of 20th century, which aims the development of the technologies for the sustainable society at the molecular level. Most products we consume in everyday life are produced through chemical processes, and we often oversee the fact that huge amount of solvents are used and disposed. At the present time most solvents used in laboratories as well as industries are volatile organic compounds(VOC), which gives health and environmental problems. Therefore scientists are seeking new materials which have equivalent properties of VOCs as solvent, and at the same time gives no health and environmental problems. In this brief review, the author describes the present status of research and development activities of green solvent materials throughout research societies worldwide. At present the most attractive green solvent candidates are water, glycerol, supercritical carbon dioxide and ionic liquids. In order to give the pictures of these materials, the author tried to introduce the overall aspects of green solvents in various chemical reaction as well as catalytic roles.

Ionic liquids(ILs) have been the most investigated chemicals among green solvents including water, glycerol, supercritical carbon dioxdie($scCO_2$). ILs are attracting organic as well as inorganic chemicals because most ionic liquids' vapor pressures are very low so that ILs are liquids phase at ambient conditions. ILs are composed of various anions and cations, thus chemists can design functionalized solvents and/or catalysts that can be used in specific synthetic reactions by means of combinations of different ions. Many scientists believe ILs being green materials because of its low vapor pressure as well as the flexibility in controlling the chemical and physical properties. In this review the author describes recent development of ILs focused on imidazolium and pyridinium ILs which are being most investigated presently. In order to apply this materials in industrial level, the toxicity matter must be resolved first. In this regard, the author describes recent research trend regarding environmental effects by ILs as well as some meaningful results as well.

Mankind has just begun to recognize that the most crucial factor to achieve the sustainable society in the future is green technology. Most countries support the development of green technology to prevent catastrophes from global warming, mainly in the areas of reducing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, most products we consume in everyday life are produced through chemical processes, and we often oversee the fact that the huge amount of waste and energy during these chemical processes will seriously influence our goal to achieve our future society sustainable. Thus the technologies to minimize the amount of disposed waste and energy consumption during chemical processes may be more important than to reduce the greenhouse gases. In this regard this review introduces the recent status of green chemistry and future prospects in order to help our chemists and engineers establish research projects based on the green chemistry principles.

The representation of color with natural dyes is closely related with the modern well-being life. This study is focused on the representation of target color of the blue, yellow, and red color system, these color sources were originated from the green tea, gardenia, and black rice respectively. The quantitative numerical value of brightness (L), color coordinates (a, b) were designated for the target color, the optimum color nearest to the target value was extracted with the solvent pH, temperature, and extraction time. The longer the extraction time had more thickening color in case of the gardenia. The L-a-b coordinate of extracted color were analyzed with the color difference meter and compared with the target color. The experimental variables were optimized to extract the color of the smallest ${\Delta}E$ with the target color. As a result, the CIE standard value was proposed and the color was represented.

Conversion of Gardenia jasminoides yellow pigment into blue-green pigment by 8 bacterial species was examed. Bioconversion pattern can be categorized into three types according to absorption spectra characteristics. The same pattern of the value of ${\Delta}E$ estimated by color differencemeter was also observed. Conversion rate by S. epidermidis was faster than other bacterial species. It took 16 hour for S. epidermidis to convert pigment at $37^{\circ}C$. Gardenia jasminoides yellow pigment and conversion pigment were completely separated by Amberlite XAD column chromatography with $H_2O-MeOH$ solvent system. Storage stability of the conversion pigment was better than Gardenia jasminoides yellow pigment.

백색 유기발광소자는 전색 디스플레이, 액정디스플레이의 backlights, 조명에서 잠재적인 가능성 때문에 디스플레이와 조명 업계에서 각광 받고 있다. 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하기 위한 방법으로 형광체를 이용한 백색 유기발광소자가 연구되고 있지만, 아직 색순도와 색좌표에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 무기물 형광체를 이용한 백색 유기발광소자의 전기적 특성과 광학적 특성을 관찰하였다. 광원으로 사용된 청색 유기발광소자에 적색과 녹색의 무기물 형광체를 결합하는 방법으로 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 광원으로 사용한 청색 유기발광소자의 양극으로는 투명전극으로 널리 쓰이고 있는 ITO를 사용하였고 정공 수송층으로는 N,N'-bis-(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine, 청색 발광층으로는 1,3-bis(carbazol-9-yl) benzene 호스트에 bis (3,5-difluoro-2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl)-(2-carboxypyridyl) iridium (III) 청색인광도 펀트를 사용하였다. 정공 저지층과 전자 수송층으로는 각각 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthorlene와 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline을 사용하고 전자 주입층으로는 lithium quinolate를 사용하였으며 음극으로는 Al을 사용하였다. 색 변환층으로 사용된 유기물 형광체는 sol-gel 방법으로 제작된 적색 형광체와 녹색 형광체를 사용하였다.

Supercritical treatment of liquefaction technology for rice hull was investigated the biomass conversion rate and evaluated its crude oil in respect to feasibility of burner in order to heat the green house. The reaction was carried out in a 5,000 mL liquefaction system with dispenser and external electrical furnace. Raw materials (160 g) of rice hull and 3,000 mL of different solvents were fed into the reactor. It was observed that the maximum crude oil yield was about 84.4 % with 1-butanol. The calorific value of crude oil from ethanol solvent were 7,752 kcal/kg. Furthermore, in case study of co-solvent with ethanol and bulk-glycerol, it observed that more than 80 % of rice hull was decomposed and liquefied in its solvent at $315{\sim}326^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. For the development of applicable bio-fuel from rice hull, it was considered that its feasibility is necessary to be carried out for co-solvent soluble portions. Regarding to utilize the crude oil into burner as fuel, it was observed that its calorific value was lower at approximately 24 % than the diesel. Also, flame length from crude oil at lower temperature was decreasing due to incomplete incineration. The temperature of warm wind on the burner was maintained between 63 and $65^{\circ}C$, and the temperature of emission line was appeared at $350{\sim}380^{\circ}C$.

Extracting natural dyes have been widely studied since the needs of eco-friendly and non-toxic natural dyes increased. In this paper, the natural dyes were extracted from sappan wood, gardenia, and mugwort containing brazilein, crocin, and chlorophyll process. After the extraction with variables of pH of solvent and reaction time, the chromaticity of extracted natural dyes was analyzed using quantitative values from brightness and color coordinate (L, a, b) based on the target colors of red, yellow and green. For the case of brazilein and crocin, the cadmium red and cadmium yellow, respectively were extracted. In the case of sappan wood and gardenia, the red pigment under pH 12 (${\Delta}$ = 18.2) and the yellow pigment at pH 9 (${\Delta}$ = 18.4) were extracted respectively. However, the color of extracted chlorophyll from mugwort was different from the target chrome green.
