To select a promising technologies for removal of odorous gases emitted from a wastewater pump station, four methods such as activated carbon (A/C) adsorption, chemical absorption (acid and alkali scrubber), and two biofilters (polyurethane (PU) and worm cast) were investigated. The average odor removal efficiencies in the PU biofilter and A/C column was over 98%, but in a worm cast biofilter and chemical absorption were below 60-80%. The removal efficiency of PU biofilter was very stable (about 98-99%) in the range of retention times of 4-36s, and a maximum elimination capacity was $1.6${\times}$10^{ 7}$ $OUm^{-3}$$h^{-1}$ Deodorization costs for an activated carbon adsorption and a biofiltration method were investigated. With increasing odor intensity, the operating cost of the A/C column increased linearly, but the operating cost of the biofilteration increased slightly. The capital cost in a biofilter is about two times higher than that in an A/C column, but the operating cost is very lower than that of in A/C column. In conclusion, the biofiltration was evaluated one of the most promising technologies to control odor in a wastewater pump station.

갈륨 질화물 (GaN) 기반의 발광다이오드(Light Emitting Diode, LED)는 최근 디스플레이, 교동신호등, 휴대폰용 키패드의 광원 등에 널리 사용되는 전자소자로, 차세대 조명용 광원으로도 각광받고 있다. 일반적인 수평 구조의 LED에 비해 수직형 구조 LED 는 발광면이 n-GaN 표면 전체이며, 전류 확산 특성이 매우 뛰어남으로 인해 차세대 구조라고 표현되어 진다. 이런 구조에서 활성층 영역에서의 균일한 전류 분포는 전류밀집 현상을 억제하여 결과적으로 광학적 특성을 향상시킨다. 따라서 현재까지도 전류확산에 따른 발광다이오드의 성능향상에 대한 연구가 다각도로 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수직형 GaN LED 의 전극 패턴에 따른 활성층 영역에서의 전류밀도 분포에 대해 조사하였다. 전극 패턴의 크기 및 구조 변화에 따른 활성층 영역에서의 전류분포도를 삼차원 회로 모델을 이용하여 분석하였다. 또한 활성층 영역으로 주입되는 전류 밀도의 크기가 내부양자효율에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보았다. 활성층 영역에서의 균일한 전류밀도 분포를 갖는 전극구조를 설계하였으며, 각각의 전극구조를 적용한 수직형 GaN LED의 전기/광학적 특성에 대해 전산모사 하였다. 최종적으로, n-GaN 위 전극의 크기 및 구조 변화에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과를 토대로, 균일한 전류분포 및 내부 양자효율 향상을 위한 전극패턴 설계 방침을 제안한다.

우리 나라에서 토양의 점토광물에 관한 최초의 연구는 1958년 김제지방의 답 토양에 관한 연구로 (Dewan, 1958)시작되었다. 1960년대 시작하여 1970년대 까지는 주로 토양점토광물의 동정이 이루어 졌다. 점토광물의 동정(同定)에 사용된 잔적토(殘積土)(Residual Soil)로는 화강암(花崗岩), 화강편마암(花崗片麻岩), 현무암(玄武岩), 석회암(石灰岩), 혈암(頁岩), 제(第)3기층(紀層), 홍적층(洪積層) 유래 토양과 토양종류별(土壤種類別)로는 과부식회색토(寡腐植灰色土), 염류토(鹽類土), 충적토(沖積土), 적황색토(赤黃色土), 화산회토(火山灰土), 퇴적토(堆積土), 갈색토(褐色土), 암쇄토(岩碎土), 저위생산답(低位生産畓)이였으며, 토양점토광물(土壤粘土鑛物)과 작물수량성(作物收量性) 관계에 관한 연구가 실시되었다. 1980년대에 들어와서는 토양중의 1차광물과 점토광물의 풍화에 대한 안정도와 1차광물의 동정이 행해졌으며, 이밖에 Kaolinite 입자의 전하에 관한 연구등 점토광물의 흡착과 활성 연구, 점토광물의 토양개량재로서의 흡착과 화학적 특성 변화 연구와 점토광물의 토양개량 시용효과에 관한 연구가 행해졌다. 1990년대에 들어와서는 토양 중의 1차광물과 점토광물의 정량에 대한 자료가 축척되었고, 토양의 풍화에 대한 안정성과 생성기작, Zeolite와 새로운 광물이 합성되었다. 또한 합성광물을 이용한 농업과 산업광물로의 응용성 환경 산업에서의 적용가능성에 대한 평가가 시도되었다. 토양의 점토광물의 조성에 관한 연구는 토양 모재를 중심으로 이루어졌는데, 화강암(花崗岩)에서는 Halloysite, 화강편마암(花崗片麻岩)에서는 Kaolinite, Metahalloysite, Illite, 산성암(酸性岩)에서는 Kaolinite, Venrmiculite와 Chlorite의 중간광물, 현무암(玄武岩)에서는 Illite, Kaolinite, Vermiculite, 석회암(石灰岩)에서는 Vermiculite-Chlorite 중간광물, Kaolinite와 Illite, 혈암(頁岩)에서는 Kaolinite, Halloysite, Illite 외 Vermiculite-Chlorite, 화산회토(火山灰土)에서는 Allophane이 주광물이었다. Soil Taxonomy와 토양광물과의 관계에서, 답 토양에서는 Entisols의 주점토광물은 2:1형과 1:1형 광물이지만 Inceptisols와 Alfisols에서는 Halloysite가 대부분이다. 밭 토양의 경우는 Alfisols의 주점토광물은 Vermiculite, Illite, Kaolinite이었고, Ultisols에서는 Vermiculite-Chlorite 중간광물이었다. 산림토양에서는 Inceptisols중에서 Andept는 Allophane, Alfisols에서는 2:1 광물이지만, Ultisols에서는 Halloysite이다. 모재별 조암 광물의 풍화와 점토광물의 생성과정에서 화강암(花崗岩)과 화강편마암(花崗片麻岩)의 장석류(長石類)는 kaoline광물로, 이 밖의 운모광물(雲母鑛物), 녹니석(綠泥石), 각섬석(角閃石), 휘석(輝石)으로부터 생성된 illite, chlorite, vermiculite는 풍화중간에 혼층단계(混層段階)를 거쳐서 kaoline 광물로 풍화된다. 석회암(石灰岩) 토양의 smectite가 Mg농도가 높은 토양용액으로부터 침전되어 생성되었거나 운모 또는 chlorite에서 유래된 vermiculite의 변성작용에 의해 생성되고, 혈암(頁岩)토양의 점토에 illite가 주로 풍화에 저항성이 큰 미립자의 함수백운모(含水白雲母)로부터 유래되며, 현무암(玄武岩) 중의 장석류(長石類)는 kaoline광물로, 휘석(輝石)은 chlorite${\rightarrow}$illite의 풍화과정을 거친다. Zeolite, 함불석 Bentonite, Bentonite 등 우량점토 광물이 분포과 광물조성, 이화학적 특성이 조사되었고, 토양의 물리적, 화학적 성질의 개선을 필요로 하는 토양의 개량을 위해서 Bentonite, Zeolite, Vermiculite 등의 토양 개량재(改良材)로서의 기초연구와 이들 개량재 시용효과에 관한 연구 등이 주로 논토양에서 수행되었다. 점토광물과 수량관계를 보면 Montmorillonite를 주점토광물로 함유된 답 토양의 수도수량이 1:1 광물을 주점토광물로 함유하고 있는 토양에서의 수도수량 보다 높았다. 토양광물에 관한 기초연구(基礎硏究)로서 양이온교환능과 포화이온의 영향, 입자의 전기화학적 성질, 흡탈착 성질, 표면적과 등전점, 해성점토에 대한 압밀점토(壓密粘土)의 변형율(變形率)의 추정 등이 주로 연구되었다. 부가가치가 낮거나 폐기되는 광물을 이용하여 토양개량재 혹은 흡착제를 형성하는 연구가 알카리 처리에 의한 Zeolite 합성에 집중되었다.

The effect of the alkali, alkali earth metal elements on selective catalytic reduction(SCR) catalyst deactivation behavior were investigated in terms of microstructure, surface area, pore volume and De-NOx test. Poisoned SCR catalyst were manufactured by injection of $K_2CO_3$, $Na_2CO_3$, $Ca(CH_3COO)_2{\cdot}H_2O$, $C_4H_6MgO_4{\cdot}4H_2O$, $H_3PO_4$ solutions in the new SCR catalyst at $350^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. New and poisoned catalysts surface were similar. But specific surface area, pore volume decrease from Na, Mg, K, Ca, P compared to new SCR catalyst. Especially, Na poisoned catalyst surface area and pore size extremely decreased by $10.20m^2/g$, $0.061cm^2/g$. De-NOx test results of new and poisoned catalysts at $150{\sim}450^{\circ}C$ indicated that alkali metal (K, Na) poisoned SCR catalysts have the lowest De-NOx efficiency, alkali earth metal poisoned SCR catalysts (Ca, Mg) De-NOx efficiency are higher than alkali metal poisoned SCR catalysts. P poisoned SCR catalyst De-NOx efficiency is similar new SCR catalyst. It were considered that physical deactivation of SCR catalyst was affected by SCR catalyst surface area and pore volume change.

Visible injury appeared 7 days after ultraviolet-B(UV-B) irradiation, but did not show any significant decline of growth in cucumber plant. However the growth of the first leaves of fertilized plants was suppressed by UV-B irradiation. Especially the most effective growth retardiation appeared when supplied with nitrogen rather than phosphate and potassium. These results suggest that UV-B may play an important role in inhibiting nitrogen metabolism. Therefore we examined the effect of activity of nitrate reductase, and found that the nitrate reductase activity of the first leaves was increased by UV-B irradiation for 7 days and fertilization. We examined the effect of plant hormone on the inhibition of growth in the first leaves. Benzyladenine promoted the growth of discs excised from the first leaves by fertilization and without UV-B, but did not promote the growth of leaf discs from UV-B irradiated plants. We conclude that the UV-B-induced decrease in the growth of the first leaves could be related to reduction in sensitivity to plant hormones.

The physiological activities of extracts from the leaf, stem, and fruit of Cudrania tricuspidata were investigated. The electron-donating ability (EDA) of the 70% (v/v) ethanolic extract of stem was 90.20%; this was the highest value of all the extracts tested and higher than the L-ascorbate solutions. The total polyphenol contents were the highest in the leaf extracts under all extraction conditions. Especially, 70% (v/v) methanolic extract of leaf contained the highest total polyphenol content of 224.48 mg%. SOD-like activity showed the highest activity in water extract of leaf at 64.53%. Tyrosinase-inhibitory activities were the most effective in all extracts of fruit. ACE inhibitory activities were the highest in water extract of fruit. Nitrite-scavenging abilities under acidic conditions (pH 1.2 and pH 3.0) were the most effective in all the extracts. The results of this study will be useful for understanding the physiological activities of Cudrania tricuspidata extracts.

Strawberries fermented with Acetobacter pasteurianus SRCM60009 were prepared, and the quality characteristics and physiological activity were measured. As the fermentation period increased, viable cell counts increased, pH decreased, and total acidity increased from 1.09% to 4.20%. The organic acid content of strawberry through acetic acid fermentation was confirmed in the following order: acetic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, and lactic acid. Measurement of α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase inhibitory activities and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activity showed significantly increased physiological activity owing to fermentation. The use of strawberry vinegar as a functional material was confirmed by measuring the anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, and anti-hypertensive physiological activities through acetic acid fermentation of strawberry. Thus, fermented strawberry vinegar can be used as a functional material in vinegar and other foods.
