In order to simultaneously vitrify the ton Exchange Resin(IER) and Dry Active Waste(DAW) generated from the Nuclear Power Plants, a vitrification pilot test was conducted using an induction cold crucible melter. The PCT result evaluating the chemical durability of the vitrified from showed that the final glass was more durable than the benchmark glass. Liquidus temperature for the final vitrified form was 1048 K(775$\^{C}$) fur heat treatment experiments. The value of the compressive strength for the vitrified form was ninety times higher than the regulation limit, 34 kg/㎠. The glasses on bottom, middle and top of the CCM were homogeneous with no secondary phase. The precipitation of the magnetic metal phase was able to be avoided by simultaneously fEeding of DAW with IER containing strongly reducing organics. Volume reduction factor of 74 was achieved through the vitrification Pilot test for mixed waste.

1.퇴비 온도의 상승에 비례하여 폐사계 체내의 온도도 상승하여 퇴적식 퇴비단의 경우 $55^{\circ}C$내외의 고온지속기간이 약 30일정도 유지되었다. 반면에 토양 중에 매립된 폐사계의 체내 온도는 발효 전 기간 동안 $30^{\circ}C$ 이상으로 상승하지 못한 채 주변토양 온도와 거의 비슷한 수준을 유지하였다. 토양온도는 외기온의 변화에 즉각적인 반응을 보이지 않았다. 2. 시험용 발효조 내에서의 송풍여부에 따른 퇴비의 발효온도 변화추이는 송풍 처리구에서는 퇴비화 3일째에 최고온도 $68^{\circ}C$를 기록한 반면에 무송풍구에서는 퇴비화 5일째에 최고온도 $72^{\circ}C$를 기록하였다. 3. 퇴비단 표층에서 채취된 시료에서 검출된 $H_2S$와 $CH_3$SH 농도는 송풍 처리구에 있어서는 퇴비화 개시 후 20일 경과 후 각 각 28.5, 16.0 ppb 수준을 나타냈고 35일 경과 시에는 각각 57.7, 11.7 ppb, $CH_3SH$의 경우에는 23.7, 9.9 ppb 수준의 발생량을 기록하는 등 전반적으로 송풍처리구가 무송풍 처리구에 비해 악취가스의 발생량이 상대적으로 낮았다. 4. 폐사계를 밀폐용기 내에서 발표 시 수거된 침출수 중의 미생물 수가 토양매립 상태 하에서 수거된 침출수 중의 미생물 수보다 더 적은 경향을 보이고 있다. 5. 퇴비단 내에서 발효에 따른 폐사계 중량은 최초 3일간에 급격히 감소하고 시간의 경과에 따라 그 감소속도는 줄어든다. 발효온도가 높을수록 조직의 분해속도가 빨라지고 폐사계의 중량감소 속도도 빨라졌다. 6. 일반 퇴비와 폐사계를 발효시킨 퇴비 사이에 비료성분과 중금속 함량의 유의적인 차이는 발견되지 않았다.

The objective of this study was to investigate a small sewage treatment system. This system was developed to improve a nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiency and generate less solid using upflow septic tank(UST) - aerobic filter(AF) system. The UST equipped with an aerobic filter, the filter was fed with both raw sewage and recycled effluent from the UST to induce the denitrification and solid reduction simultaneously. Overall removal efficiencies of COD and total nitrogen(TN) were above 96% and 73% at recycle ratio of 200%, respectively. Critical coagulant dose without the biochemical activity was found to be 40 mg/L. Removal efficiency of total phosphorus(TP) in influent was above 90% by chemical and biological reactions. Although the phosphorus concentration was low under the high alkalinity in raw sewage, the pH value was unchanged by the coagulant dose.

The aim of this study was to analyze food waste treatment cost and to estimate effect of by-product, such as wastewater and foreign materials, on amount cost. In cost analysis, man power and facility capacity are fixed, whereas operation cost, by-product treatment and et, al. are varied by treatment methods. The rate of by-product treatment cost in amount cost are between 5% and 39%. The methods which consume large electric power or generate much wastewater showed higher rate of by-product treatment cost in range of 14 to 39%. On the other hand, the methods which have simple process showed lower rate in range of 5 to 11%. Thus, this study recommend that by-products should be treated in sewage treatment facilities or landfill sites to prevent illegal disposal of by-products or to reduce burden of by-product from private sectors.

To verify the usefulness of enzyme activity as a index for the stability or maturity of apple pomace composting. the succession of microbial populations using viable count procedure. and Vmax of ${\beta}$-glucosidase and cellobiohydrolase were measured. based on an increase in fluorescence as the nonfluorescent methylumbelliferyl substrates were enzymatically hydrolyzed, leading to the highly fluorescent methylumbelliferyl molecule 4-methylumbelliferone(MUF). The activities of these enzymes in the decomposition of carbohydrates were gradually decreased in the course of the time. Correlation between microbial population and enzyme activity was not significant with exception of fungi. and the fungi were represented in high density. This indicates that the fungi probably play a major role in composting of apple pomace.

This study examined the improvement of anaerobic digestion rate and sludge reduction as a result of the addition of anaerobic digestion with thickened sludge and solution of VFAs obtained from food waste. The methane production rate of the digestion system was 2.21 times higher when anaerobic digestion reactor injected into anaerobes with VFAs from food wastes of 5 percent. Also, The reduction of the amount of concentrated sludge injected will proceed rapidly because of the TCOD concentration in the digestion reactor was more than twice higher. Indirectly it was shown that the increased production system contributed significantly to the methane production efficiency.

This study was performed to examine the effect of zinc on the biodegradability, nitrification, denitrification and oxygen uptake rate (OUR) using batch reactor and continuous flow stirred tank reactor (CSTR) of anaerobic/anoxic/oxic ($A^2/O$). The results of this study can be summarized as follows. In the case of the effect of zinc on organic treatment, zinc had no effect up to 12 mg/L with batch reactor but biodegradability was lowered when it was above 3.0 mg/L with CSTR. Concerning the case on nitrification and removal of nitrogen, nitrification rate was lowered when zinc was above 6.0 mg/L with batch reactor and removal rate of nitrogen was lowered when zinc was above 3.0 mg/L with CSTR. Removal rate of phosphorus was lowered when it was above 6.0 mg/L zinc with batch reactor and above 3.0 mg/L zinc with CSTR. In the case of OUR, it decreased as microbial activity was affected when zinc concentration was above 3.0 mg/L in CSTR.

This research conducted component analysis of pellet fuel using livestock waste and agricultural by-product and combustion characteristics. As the result of analyzing the characteristics of solid fuel using livestock waste, three components, element analysis, and heating value were suitable for the standard of solid fuel. In addition, content of ash consisted of high concentration of K, P, Na indicating the possibile usage as a soil conditioner. However, it was not suitable for solid fuel using only livestock waste due to the relatively low heating value. To improve the heating value and early ignition, we mixed agricultural by-products (i.e., chaff and sawdust) into livestock waste. The mixed material showed significant increase of combustibles and heating value with decrease of moisture content compared to the livestock waste only.

In this research, a sewage sludge solubilization study using electrolysis was performed as a pre-treatment for anaerobic digestion efficiency improvement. SCOD potency increased as the treatment time and electric current density increased with sludge electrolysis treatment while SCOD, TN, and TP especially showed the highest increase of 7.4 times, 1.9 times, and 1.3 times respectively at the 60 minute point of treatment. Solubilization was high at the strong acidic and alkaline status for the sewage sludge electrolysis treatment results along early stage pH, and especially, a high solubilization percentage of 32.9% was seen at pH 12. The above result shows that there was an increase of organic matter able to be used by microorganisms from sludge floc and the destruction of EPS structure due to direct and indirect oxidation following electrolysis.

최근 IT산업의 급속한 발달로 모바일 제품과 반도체 및 IC 패키지 등의 전자제품의 소형화, 경량화 및 고성능화되어 가고 있다. 따라서 반도체 공정에서 단위소자의 고속화를 구현하기 위한 금속배선공정에 사용되는 금속재료가 최근에 최소 선폭을 갖는 디바이스에서는 구리를 배선 재료로 전환하고, 향후에는 모든 디바이스가 구리를 주요 배선재료로 사용할 것으로 예측되고 있다. 반도체 소자 공정 중 시료 표면 위에 형성되는 오염물은 파티클, 유기오염물, 금속 불순물 그리고 자연 산화막으로 나눌 수 있다. 구리 표면에 생성되는 부식생성물의 종류에는 CuO, $Cu_2O$, $Cu(OH)_2$, $CuCO_3{\cdot}Cu(OH)_2$와 같은 생성물들이 있다. 이러한 부식생성물이 구리박막 표면에 형성이 되면 성장된 구리박막의 특성을 저하시키게 된다. 이러한 다양한 오염물들을 제거하기 위해서 여러 가지 전처리 공정에 대한 연구가 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서, 스퍼터 방식으로 구리를 증착한 웨이퍼 (Cu/Ti/Si) 를 대기 중에 노출시켜 자연 산화막을 성장시키고, 이 산화막과 대기로부터 흡착된 불순물을 제거하기 위해 계면 활성제인 TS-40A와 $NH_4OH$ 수용액을 사용하여 이들 수용액이 구리 표면층에 미치는 영향에 대해 조사 분석하였다. 사용된 TS-40A는 알칼리 탈지제로서 웨이퍼 표면의 유기물을 제거하는 역할을 하며, $NH_4OH$는 구리를 제거하는 부식액으로 산업현장에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 다양한 표면 전처리 조건에 따른 구리박막 표면의 형상 및 미시적 특성변화를 SEM과 AFM을 이용하여 관찰하였고, 표면의 화학구조 및 성분 변화를 관찰하기 위해 XPS를 측정하였으며, 전기적 특성변화를 관찰하기 위해 4-point prove를 사용하여 박막의 면저항을 측정하였다.
