The effects of $TiO_2$ photocatalyst coating bead concentration, water-back-flushing period (FT), and back-flushing time (BT) were investigated in hybrid process of ceramic ultrafiltration and photocatalyst for advanced drinking water treatment in this study. Photocatalyst coating bead concentration was changed in the range of 10~40 g/L, FT in 2~10 min and BT in 6~30 sec. Then, we observed the effects on resistance of membrane fouling $(R_f)$, permeate flux (J) and total permeate volume $(V_{\Upsilon})$ during total filtration time of 180 min. As decreasing photocatalyst coating bead concentration, $R_f$ increased and J decreased. $V_{\Upsilon}$ was the highest value of 8.85 L at 40 g/L of photocatalyst coating bead concentration. At FT change experiment, $R_f$ decreased and J increased as decreasing FT. Then $R_f$ decreased and J increased according to increasing BT at BT change experiment. Because at NBF (no back-flushing) dramatic membrane fouling reduced membrane pore size, turbid and dissolved organic matters ($UV_{254}$ absorbance) could be removed efficiently. Therefore, treatment efficiencies of turbidity and dissolved organic matters were the highest at NBF. Then by cleaning effect of photocatalyst coating bead, the treatment efficiencies of turbidity and dissolved organic matters increased as decreasing FT and increasing BT.

The effect of antibrowning agents such as PVPP (polyvinylpolypyrrolidone), bentonite, gelatin, celite 545, tannic acid and sodium sulfite in apple concentrate was investigated for the control of enzymatic browning by comparing physicochemical properties (pH, color, turbidity), polyphenoloxidase activity and contents of polyphenol compounds. In color value, apple concentrate containing PVPP showed higher L value (lightness) than control and other antibrowning agents. The turbidity (absorbance at 660 nm) of apple concentrate added PVPP, gelatin celite 545, tannic acid and sodim sulfite were 0.003, 0.038, 0.018 and 0.022, respectively. PVPP was regarded to remove suspended solids effectively. Polyphenoloxidase activity and polyphenolics(catechol, catechin, chlorogenic acid, epicatechin) content of apple concentrate used PVPP significantly reduced. Therefore PVPP was proved to be effective for enzymatic antibrowning agent considering to color, turbidity, polyphenoloxidase activity and polyphenol compounds in apple concentrate.

A water treatment system using membrane separation technology can provide stable effluent quality and its maintenance is relatively easy comparing to the conventional water treatment system. In addition, the membrane filtration system is very compact such that it can replace existing water treatment processes of coagulation/sedimentation/filtration by only one process. However, a major problem associated with membrane filtration is flux decline with operating time due to concentration polarization and fouling, so a systematic study on evaluation of long-term filtration performance is necessary. A membrane filtration system using tubular type ultrafiltration membranes with MWCO of 30.000 Da was constructed for this study and it had been operated in a feed-and-discontinuous bleed mode. Flux was stabilized after operation of 1.500 hours and maintaining above 25 LMH until 4.000 hours. Contaminants causing SS and turbidity were almost completely removed while the $UV_{260}$ and DOC removals were 55% and 49%, respectively. A simple mass balance equation was developed to predict maximum concentrations of SS, turbidity, $UV_{260}$ and DOC in a operation cycle. For SS and turbidity the measured max, concentrations in each cycle agree well with the predicted values while the measured max, concentrations of $UV_{260}$ and DOC were 59% and 37% of the predicted values, respectively.

A pilot-scale test-bed was operated employing three soils with different grain sizes dredged from the Nakdong River to obtain the design and operation parameters of the multi-purpose filtration pond, such as the filtrate productivity of the filter sand, the appropriate removal period of the surface clogging and the contaminant removal efficiency. The cross-flow velocities were applied stepwise ranging from 0 to 40 cm/sec in order to simulate the various velocities in the artificial stream of the pond. Results showed that a filtrate production rate of 5~3 $m^3/m^2-day$ was maintained by removing the surface clogging every 7 to 13 days and that the filtrate quality was not affected by the factors of the filtrate production rate, the grain size of the filter sand and the cross-flow velocity. Results also showed that most of the removal occurred within 50 cm of the top soil and that the removal efficiencies with the filtration distance of 2.4 m were 80~95% for turbidity, 20~30% for COD, 75~90% for BOD, 5~20% for total nitrogen and 20~60% for total phosphorus, which suggested that particulate matters had a high removal efficiency.

This research was conducted to investigate whether sequential anoxic/aerobic biofilm reactors and microfilteration (MF) membrane system can be used as a direct treatment for the removal of perchlorate and nitrate in groundwater. The biofilm process consisted of an anoxic first stage to remove perchlorate and nitrate and aerobic second stage to remove remaining acetate used as a carbon source for dissimilatory reduction of perchlorate and nitrate. In final stage, hollow fiber MF membrane was used to remove turbidity. In this research, perchlorate was reduced from the influent concentration of 102 ${\mu}/L$ to below the IC detection level (5 ${\mu}/L$) and nitrate was reduced from 61.8 mg/L (14 mg/L $NO_3$-N) to 4.4 mg/L (1 mg/L $NO_3$-N). Acetate used as a carbon source was consumed from 179 mg/L $CH_3COO-$ to 117 and 11 mg/L $CH_3COO^-$ in effluents from anoxic and aerobic biofilm reactors, respectively. Turbidity was reduced from 3.0 NTU to 1.5, 0.3, and 0.2 NTU in effluents from anoxic/aerobic biofilm reactors and MF membrane, respectively. It is expected that the sequential anoxic/aerobic biofilm reactors and MF membrane system can efficiently remove perchlorate and nitrate in surface water or groundwater.

천일염의 생산공정은 바닷물(나트륨 농도: 2~3%)을 저수지로 유입시킨 바닷물을 농축하는 1차 증발지(난치)와 2차 증발지(누태)로 보내 일반적으로 2주 정도 증발시켜 나트륨 농도 12~15% 소금물을 만든다. 온도가 낮은 겨울철에는 결정지를 거치거나 2차 증발지의 농축시켜 창고(해주)에서 보관 하는 동안 나트륨 농도 25~27%정도로 상승되어 소금 결정을 이루고 채염하여 창고로 운송한다. 보관창고에서 천일염에서 쓴맛을 내는 간수를 제거한 뒤 선별, 건조 및 포장하는 유통하는 단계로 이뤄진다. 천일염의 생산과정 중 해주는 함수를 저장하여 고농도의 함수를 저장하여 불용분 및 이물질을 자연 침전시켜 맑은 함수를 다음 공정으로 이송시켜 천일염 품질향상에 중요한 공정 중에 하나이다. 그러나 일반적인 염전의 해주는 지붕의 복사열로 인하여 저장중인 해수의 대류로 인하여 침전물이 상승되고 이물질이 부유함으로 인하여 품질저하의 원인이 되고 있다. 또한 해주 구조 및 해주 품질에 대한 자료는 전무한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 해주의 깊이에 따른 해수의 대류 방지 깊이 및 품질 변화를 측정하여 고품질 천일염 생산공정에 적용하는데 목적이 있다. 해주분석을 위한 염전은 결정지 채염공정을 공유하는 2개지역 3개 염전을 대상으로 하였으며, 무안, 운남 및 만품지역의 3개소를 선정하여 생산방식이 비교적 동일한 염전을 선정하여 조사 및 분석하였다. 해주의 깊이는 1.0, 3.0, 3.5m인 해주의 시료를 채취하여 Calcium, Magnesium, Sulphate, Chloride 의 함량 분석은 Arena 20 XT 자동흡광분석기 (Automated photometric analyzer)을 이용하여 분석을 하였다. 각 염전에서 채취한 해수의 평균 탁도 값은 해주의 깊이가 깊을수록 탁도 값이 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 해수의 색상 "b" 값은 해주 깊이가 깊을수록 낮은 결과를 보였다. Mg 함량은 전반적으로 15,000~40,000 mg/L 범위의 값을 나타냈으며, Sulphate 함량은 약 30,000~65,000 mg/L 범위의 값을 나타났으며, 깊이가 깊을수록 Mg, Sulphate 함량이 낮아지는 결과를 보였으나 Chloride 함량은 뚜렷한 경향을 보이지 않았다. 실험 결과 해주 깊이에 따른 함수의 품질 차이가 발생하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었으며, 해주의 바닥 깊이가 깊을수록 함수의 불용분 침전, 분리에 효율적인 것으로 판단되었다.

반도체 소자가 고집적화 됨에 따라 단위공정의 수가 증가하게 되었고 동시에 실리콘 기판의 오염에 대한 문제가 증가하였다. 실리콘 기판의 주 오염물로는 유기물, 파티클, 금속분순물 등이 있으며 특히, Cu와 Fe과 같은 금속불순물은 이온주입 공정, reactive ion etching, photoresist ashing과 같은 실 공정 중에 1011-1013atoms/㎤정도로 오염이 되고 있다. 그러나 금속불순물 중 Cu와 같은 전기음성도가 실리콘 보다 큰 오염물질은 일반적인 습석세정방법으로는 제거하기 힘들다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Cu와 Fe과 같은 금속불순물을 제거할 목적을 건식과 습식 세정방법을 혼합한 UV/ozone과 HF세정을 제안하여 실시하였다. CuCI2와 FeCI2 표준용액으로 실리콘 기판을 인위적 오염한 후 split 1(HF-only), split 2 (UV/ozone+HF), split 3 (UV/ozone + HF 2번 반복), split 4(UV/ozone-HF 3번 반복)를 실시하였고 TXRF(Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence)와 AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)으로 금속불순물 제거량과 표면거칠기를 각각 측정하였다. 또한 contact angle 측정으로 세정에 따른 표면상태도 측정하였다. TXRF 측정결과 split 4가 가장 적은 양의 금속불순물 잔류량을 보였으며 AFM 분석을 통한 표면거칠기도 가장 작은 RMS 값을 나타내었다. Contact angle 측정 결과 UV/ozone 처리는 친수성 표면을 형성하였고 HF처리는 소수성 표면을 형성하였다.

The use of subcutaneously tunneled, cuffed central venous catheters like Broviac's or Hickman's has increased and complications related to catheter removal has also increased. However, there are only few reports of complications that occur at the time of removal. The authors report an unusual case of catheter fracture during removal of Broviac catheter.

고급산화법 중 하나인 광촉매인 TiO$_2$를 이용한 시스템은 300~400nm 파장의 UV영역에서 비교적 적은 에너지로 유기 오염 물질을 $CO_2$와 $H_2O$로 산화시킨다[1]. 따라서 폐수용액 중 오염물질을 제거한 경우에도 슬러리로 인한 2차 오염의 문제가 없다. 최근에는 난분해성 물질이나 독성을 가진 물질을 포함된 폐수처리 시설의 고도처리를 위하여 분리막을 도입하는 추세이다.(중략)
