울산광산 내 지표수와 토양 중의 공극수에 함유되어 있는 비소의 오염현황을 파악하고, pH와 산화-환원 전위 값의 변화에 따른 자연저감 능력을 평가하였다. 유비철석을 비롯한 비소함유 광물은 높은 산화-환원 전위 값과 낮은 pH 조건에서 해리되며, 이후 지하수의 진화과정에서 pH가 상승함에 따라 주로 5가의 비소형태로 존재하게 된다. 울산광산지역 지하수의 비소농도는 Eh가 높은 비포화대와 포화대 지하수의 경계부에서 높은 경향을 나타내며, 포화대의 상부에서는 Eh가 비교적 일정하나 비소 농도는 다양한 분포양상을 보인다. 포화대 하부에서 비소의 함량은 매우 낮으며, Eh 감소에 따라 비소 함량이 비례적으로 감소한다. 반응경로 과정에서 비소농도는 Eh<-0.1(V)인 지하수 포화대에서 가장 낮으며, pH가 상대적으로 낮고 산화-환원 전위값이 높은 비포화대에서 증가되는 경향을 보인다. 풍화 반응 정도가 높은 광미와 토양에서 비소농도 높으나, 용출실험에서 비소가 기준치 이하로 용출되는 것은 풍화반응과 토양에 의한 비소의 자연저감이 진행되고 있음을 반영한다. RMB를 이용한 중금속 제거능력 평가 실내실험에서, 산성과 알칼리 조건 모두에서 제거율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 인회석과 철산화물질로 구성된 RMB는 친환경적이고 2차 오염문제를 극복할 수 있는 물질로서, 비소의 자연저감 능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 정화처리제로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

For treating tannery wastewater containing high sulfate and heavy metals, test was performed to assess their performance, competition between SRB (sulfate reducing bacteria) and MPB (methane producing bacteria), and the activity of MPB according to change of chromium concentrations. COD removal efficiency was above 70% at VLR (volumetric loading rate) of 2.0 gCOD/I.day and HRT (hydraulic retention time) of 18hrs at $35^{\circ}C$. In the competition between SRB and MPB, about 15% of the removed COD was utilized by SRB in the begining, but it became 43% at the end. It indicated that MPB was strongly suppressed by the occurrence of significant sulfate reduction since a large electron flow was uptaken by SRB. For the entire experiment, removal efficiencies of chromium concentration were more than 90%. Despite high removal efficiencies of chromium concentration, performance of reactor did not change significantly during the experimental periods. Expecially, chromium (III) is tannery wastewater is less toxic than chromium (VI).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the purification capacity of pollutants by column test with the tidal flat sediment. Sediment materials were taken from Chunjangdae tidal flat which located in Chungnam Seochungun. The column tests were conducted on four conditions(R1 : raw sewage filtered by G2 filter, R2 : sterilized sewage after filtered by GF/C filter, R3 : R2 /filtered(membrane) seawater (1:1), R4 : R2 /filtered(membrane) seawater(1:2)). The results of this study may be summarized as followed ; The removed COD by column tests were increased according to increasing the quantity of sewage. During the column tests of 580min, the total removed ammonia nitrogen were 90.1mg for R1, 81.0mg for R2, 27.6mg for R3 and 4.1mg for R4. The result was similar to COD experiment. During the 580min, the total removed total-phosphates were 3.4mg for R1, 4.2mg for R2, 5.6mg for R3 and 2.0mg for R4. The removal efficiency of Pb and Cd for R3 and R4 reactor were higher than R1 and R2 reactor. The remove of heavy metal by the column test was high in sample with seawater. But in the initial 20min, the adsorbed Pb and Cd showed about 3% of the total adsorbed Pb and Cd during 580min.

본 연구는 콜레스테롤을 제거한 cream과 skim milk을 혼합하여 균질시 달맞이꽃 종자유를 첨가하여 혈중 콜레스테롤을 저하시키는 Cheddar cheese를 개발하는데 목적을 두었으며, ${\beta}$-CD에 의한 치즈의 콜레스테롤 제거율은 90%이상이었다. Rheological 분석에서 숙성 기간동안 hardness 값이 증가하였지만 다른 rheological 성질의 유의적 차이는 나타나지 않았고, 관능평가에서는 달맞이꽃 종자유 함유량이 증가할수록 off-flavor intensity, rancid가 높았으며 반대로 cheese flavor는 감소하였다. 달맞이꽃 종자유는 off-flavor intensity, rancid에 상당한 영향을 끼친다고 나타났다. 동물실험에서 달맞이꽃 종자유 5%를 첨가한 Cheddar cheese는 control과 비교하여 25%의 혈중 콜레스테롤을 저하시켰다. 본 연구에서 콜레스테롤이 제거된 달맞이꽃 종자유의 첨가가 혈중 콜레스테롤을 획기적으로 감소시켜 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

This study was performed to assess the efficacy of surgical treatment with flexible alligator forceps (FAF) on heartworm infected dogs. Twenty dogs (10 males and 10 females) with heartworm infection, age $5.3\pm3.0\;(mean{\pm}S.D.)$ years and weight $9.3\pm6.5(mean{\pm}S.D.)kg$ were treated with FAF. Adult heartworms were removed by fluoroguided technique with FAF under inhalation anesthesia with isoflurane. For evaluation of the efficacy, removal rate and surgical time were measured, and removal sites were found. Antigen ELISA kit test and autopsy were performed to examine remained adult heartworms. Removal rate of total heartworms was $91.4\%$ including 15 complete retrieval cases and surgical time was $30.0\pm7.6(mean{\pm}S.E.)$ minutes. Heartworms were removed from the right ventricle, main pulmonary artery, and right and left pulmonary artery. Surgical treatment with FAF is an effective method with high removal rate, short surgical time, and various removal sites and it could be considered for the removal of adult heartworms in a dog.

This paper reports experimental results, demonstrating the feasibility of horseradish peroxidase(HRP) and H$_2$O$_2$ to reduce phenol transport in saturated porous media. A laboratory-scale packed column reactor(ID: 4.1 cm, sand-bed height 12 cm) column was utilized to simulate injection of HRP and H$_2$O$_2$ into an aquifer contaminated with phenol. Effluent concentrations of phenol and polymerization products were monitored before and after enzyme addition under various experimental conditions(enzyme dose: 0$\sim$2 AU/mL, [ionic strength]: 5$\sim$100 mM, pH: 5$\sim$9). The concentration of phenol in the column effluent was found to decrease by nearly 90% in the presence of HRP(2 AU/mL) and H$_2$O$_2$ in the continuous flow system at pH 7 and ionic strength 20 mM. The influent phenol was converted in the system to insoluble precipitate, which deposited in pore spaces. The remains were discharged as soluble oligomers. About 8% of total pore volume in column system was decreased by deposition of polymer produced.

The objective of this study is to examine the removal rate of air pollutants, specifically sulfur oxides (SO_x) and nitrogen oxides(NO_x), using concrete permeable blocks containing zeolite beads coated with materials capable of eliminating these pollutants. Titanium dioxide(TiO₂) powder and coconut shell powder were utilized for the removal of SO_x and NO_x and were applied as coatings on the zeolite beads. Concrete permeable block specimens embedded with the coated zeolite beads were produced using an actual factory production line. Test results demonstrated that the concrete permeable block containing zeolite beads coated with coconut shell powder in the surface layer achieved SO_x and NO_x removal rates of 12.5% and 99%, respectively, exhibiting superior performance compared to other blocks. Additionally, the flexural strength and slip resistance were 5.3MPa and 65BPN or higher, respectively, satisfying the requirements specified in KS F 4419 and KS F 4561. Conversely, the permeability coefficient exhibited low permeability, with grades 2 and 3 before and after contaminant pollution, according to the standard for 'design, construction, and maintenance of pavement using permeable block'. In conclusion, incorporating zeolite beads coated with coconut shell powder in the surface layer enables simultaneous removal of SO_x and NO_x, irrespective of ultraviolet rays, while maintaining adequate flexural strength and slip resistance. However, the permeability is significantly reduced, necessitating further improvements.

The bone of spinal animals has a hydroxylapatite ($Ca_{10}(PO_4)_6(OH)_2$, HAp) structure which is well known as an excellent inorganic ion exchanger for various heavy metal ions in solutions. In this study, the reusability of cow-bone, pig-bone and fish-bone as a potential material for the removal of heavy metals in solutions was evaluated from the removal of Cu(II) ion in batch tests. The surface properties of three bones, calcined at different temperatures, were measured with SEM, XRD, FT-IR analyses. From the SEM analysis, a clear development of heterogeneity as well as pores having small diameter was observed as the calcination temperature increased. The results of X-ray diffraction analysis showed well developed crystallinity on the surface of calcined bones obtained at higher temperatures, suggesting a transform of amorphous type to crystalline type. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analysis showed disappearance of water molecule on the surface of HAp and organic functional groups of the HAp with increasing the calcination temperatures. Cu(II) removal in the control test was below 15%. By the way, additional 40% increase of Cu(II) removal was observed in the presence of calcined bones. For three bones, Cu(II) removal was decreased as the calcined temperature increased. Cu(II) removal was increased as the solution pH increased due to a favorable condition for the cation exchange as well as precipitation.
