The concentration of remaining formaldehyde contained in waste liquid emitted from the process of urea-formaldehyde microcapsule synthesis was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Three factors that can affect on the reaction of formaldehyde were selected including pH, ammonium chloride input and temperature. The effect of these factors on the concentration of remaining formaldehyde was studied. When ammonium chloride input was 0.025g, microcapsules could not be obtained or core substance leaked out because of weak shell, and therefore this reaction condition would be inadequate. It was confirmed that the concentration of remaining formaldehyde could be minimized when the microencapsulation was conducted at 70℃ and pH 2.5 by using a ammonium chloride input of 0.050g. This study can make contribution to UF microencapsulation in safer working environment.

We have investigated industrial media for lactic acid fermentation to reduce the cost of nitrogen sources. Corn steep liquor (CSL) was successfully used at 5% (v/v) in batch fermentations. Use of soluble CSL improved the productivity about 20% with an advantage of clearer fermentation broth. Yeast extract-complemented CSL improved the productivity about 20% with an advantage of clearer fermentation broth. Yeast extract-complemented CSL media further increased the increased the productivity. It was found that 3.1 g/L yeast extract and 5% CSL could be an effective substitute for 15 g/L yeast extract in 10% glucose medium. Brewing yeast was also used as a sole nitrogen source equivalent to 5% CSL. A continuous culture coupled with cell-recycle by microfiltration at the dilution rate of 0.05-0.065 h-1 led to the highest lactic acid productivity. Lactic acid was recovered by electrodialysis from the cell free broth. Depleted cell free broth supplemented with 5-10 g/L of yeast extract performed reasonably in batch and continuous cultures. Reuse of the fermentation broth may reduce the cost of raw materials as well as minimize the fermentation wastes.

국제협약에 따라 2012년부터 유기성폐기물의 해양배출이 금지됨에 따라 환경문제를 유발하는 축산분뇨, 음식물쓰레기, 농축산 폐기물 등의 처리가 곤란한 실정이다. 그러나 최근 저탄소 녹색성장으로 정부가 폐자원 에너지화에 관심을 기울이면서 위의 폐기물을 바이오가스로 전환하는 바이오가스 플랜트(Biogas Plant, BGP)의 이용이 보다 활성화 될 전망이다[1]. 이 바이오가스 처리방법에서 유기물은 메탄가스로 배출되고[2], 나머지 영양성분들(질소, 인산, 칼륨 등)은 모두 소화액에 남아있으므로[3] 이들은 친환경농업에서 필요한 액비로도 활용이 가능하며, 혐기소화 처리방법은 일반적인 가축분뇨 처리과정에서 발생되는 악취문제도 해결할 수 있는 장점 또한 가지고 있다. BGP는 유기성 폐기물에서 혐기성소화를 통해 바이오가스를 만드는 장점이 있는 반면, 가스를 만들고 남은 소화액은 액비로 활용이 가능하지만, 액비로 활용이 불가능할 경우 악성 폐수로 그 처리가 매우 까다로운 단점이 있다. 일반적인 생물학적인 폐수처리방법으로는 처리가 곤란하며, 환경기준을 맞추도록 처리하는데 많은 비용이 소요된다. 이러한 폐액처리를 위해 공정의 단순화와 높은 처리 효율[4]을 가지면서, 액비 또는 정화처리공정이 가능한 방법으로서 분리막공정이 바람직하나, BGP 발생폐액의 성상이 고농도의 오염물질을 함유하고 있어 적용이 쉽지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이를 보안할 수 있는 와류발생형 막모듈을 이용하여 Biogas Plant의 발생폐수에 대하여 분리막을 이용한 효과적인 처리공정을 개발하고 그에 따른 최적의 조건을 찾는 연구를 하고자 한다. 와류발생형 막모듈을 막과 막 사이에 와류를 발생시킴으로써 막에 전단력을 가하여 막의 가장 큰 단점인 막오염을 줄이는 방법으로 기존의 막모듈과 큰 차이가 있을 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 분리막 모듈[5]과 와류발생형 막모듈의 차이를 실험을 통해 확인하며, 막에 가해지는 압력, 막을 통과하는 유량 등의 차이를 두어 최적조건을 탐색하였다.

SiC powders have been recovered from silicon-containing waste slurry by carbothermal reduction method with carbon black. Large amount of silicon-containing waste slurry is generated from Solar Cell industry. In an environmental and economic point of view, retrieve of the valuable natural resource from the silicon waste is important. In this study, SiC powder recovered by the reaction ball-milled silicon powder from waste and carbon black at $1350^{\circ}C$ for 3h under vacuum condition. Physical properties of samples have been characterized using SEM, XRD, Particle size analyzer and FT-IR spectroscopy.

Diphosil, a new version of the organic-inorganic composite resin developed by ANL has a structure of the chelating diphosphonic acid groups grafted to a silica support. To apply Diphosil for the treatment of liquid radioactive waste from nuclear power plants, the adsorption equilibrium and column experiments were carried out for the main radionuclides, $^{137}Cs\;and\;^{60}Co$, in the liquid radwaste stream. Through the adsorption equilibrium experiments, the removal efficiencies of $^{137}Cs\;and\;^{60}Co$, and the effects of non-radioactive ions on the removal efficiency have been measured in various conditions using radiotracers. The breakthrough curves for the tested tracers were obtained from the laboratory scale column tests using the simulated liquid radioactive waste. In addition, the removal capacity of Diphosil is compared with that of Amberlite IRN 77 resin, generally used in nuclear power plants.

As a basic study for the development of pilot-scale distillation process of waste photoresist strippers from semiconductor industry, lab-scale experiments for the recovery of NMP (N-methy1-pyrrolidione) and BDG (Butyldiglycol) from waste photoresist strippers have been made using a spinning band vacuum distillation column. Purities of NMP and BDG obtained from the present experiments were higher than 99.5%. Furthermore, water content was less than 1000 ppm, color grade(APHA) less than 50, most metal contents except sodium less than 1 ppb. Those results indicate that NMP and BDG reclamed by distillation satisfy the their specifications required for the formulation of new photoresist strippers. Recovery rate of NMP and BDG was 96 and 53%, respectively, for type A, and 93 and 57%, respectively, for type B waste PR stripper solution.

In this study, a new organophosphorus acid-based solvent (KMC-P) from KMC Co., Ltd. was used for the recovery of the iron chloride etching waste solution. In order to increase the extraction efficiency for the new solvent in the solvent extraction process, we selected the process variables and conducted the optimization experiment according to the DOE to investigate the correlation between the variables. Solvent concentration, pH, and O/A ratio were found to be factors affecting extraction and stripping efficiency. The optimum stripping efficiency was 69.7% when the solvent concentration was 29.4 wt%, the HCl addition amount was 0 mL, and the O/A ratio was 7, and the reliability was more than 86%.

A study on the solvent extraction for the recovery of Li from lithium-containing waste solution was investigated using $D_2EHPA$ as an extractant. The experimental parameters, such as the pH of the aqueous solution, concentration of extractant and phase ratio were observed. Experimental results showed that the extraction percentage of Li was increased with increasing the equilibrium pH. More than 50% of Li was extracted in eq. pH 6.0 by 20% $D_2EHPA$. From the analysis of McCabe-Thiele diagram, 95% of Li was extracted by four extraction stage at phase ratio(O/A) of 3.0. Stripping of Li from the loaded organic phases can be accomplished by sulfuric acid as a stripping reagent and 90 ~ 120 g/L of $H_2SO_4$ was effective for the stripping of Li. Finially, Li was concentrated about 11.85 g/L by continuous stripping process, and then lithium carbonate was prepared by precipitation method.
