This study investigated the effect of concentrate of membrane filtration of sewage reuse facilities on bioreactor's microorganisms in sewage treatment facility, and concentrate was analyzed, oxygen uptake rate and continuous activated sludge experiment were performed. As a results, the concentration of organic matter and TP concentration in concentrate was closely related to the concentration of SS and the concentration of ionic substances in concentrate was higher in order of $Cl^-$ > $Na^+$ > $Ca^{2+}$ > $K^+$ > $Mg^{2+}$ > $F^-$. And the analysis value of analytical items was greatly fluctuated according to sampling time of concentrate. Result of OUR test according to the mixing ratio of concentrate to sewage, it was found that the concentrate acts as an organic matter in the activated sludge microorganism and it increases with the increase of the concentrate mixing ratio. As a result of continuous activated sludge experiment, MLSS concentration, organic removal efficiency and TN removal efficiency gradually decreased with increasing concentrate mixing ratio. Based on the experimental results, expected mixing ratio of concentrate to affect the treatment efficiency of activated sludge is 25%.

Purpose: This review illustrates an importance of oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) generation in association with eye disease, especially of cataract, and discusses an important role of lipid peroxide as a mediator of oxidative stress-related ocular dysfunction. Methods: Oxidative stress, resulted from the cellular production of ROS and RNS, is known to cause various forms of cellular damages such as protein oxidation, DNA breaks, apoptosis, and lipid peroxidation. These damages can be developed to human diseases. Accumulating evidence strongly suggests that continuous or constant exposure of eye tissues to oxidative stress is a main cause of cataractogenesis. Therefore, we investigated the action of oxidative stress in ocular dysfunction. Results: The ocular lens is continuously attacked by ROS inevitable generated from the process of cellular metabolism and the chronic exposure to ultraviolet. Excessive generation of ROS, resulting in degradation, oxidation, crosslinking and aggregation of lens proteins, is regarded as an important factor in development of cataract. Conclusions: These oxidative stress and oxidant/antioxidant imbalance produces the excess ROS which can lead to eye dysfunction. Even though known results, it should be noted that there is limited information on the molecular mechanism which can be better defined with the interrelation of oxidative stress and optic abnormalities.

Background: This study examined the role of neutrophilc oxidative stress in an $O_2-induced$ acute lung injury (ALI). Methods: For 48 h, experimental rats were exposed to pure oxygen (normobaric hyperoxia) in a plastic cage. Forty-eight hours after $O_2$ breathing, the rats were sacrificed and the parameters for ALI associated with neutrophilic oxidative stress were assessed Results: Normobaric pure oxygen induced ALI, which was quite similar to ARDS. The $O_2-induced$ neutrophilic oxidative stress was identified by confirming of the increase in lung myeloperoxidase, BAL neutrophils, malondialdehyde (MDA), cytosolic phospholipase $A_2$ ($cPLA_2$) activity in the lung, histological changes and BAL cytospin morphology. Conclusion: In part, ALI-caused by oxygen is affected by neutrophils especially by the generation of free radicals.

하수처리장 내 생물반응조에서는 유기물을 제거하거나 질산화(Nitrification) 반응을 일으키기 위하여 산소를 요구하고 있으며, 필요한 산소는 송풍기 운영을 통해 공급하고 있는 상황이다. 질산화 반응을 일으키기 위해서 처리장 내 일정 이상의 산소가 수중에 공급되어야 한다. 생물반응조내 용존산소가 부족할 경우 활성슬러지의 침전성이 저해되어 오염물질 저감 효율이 떨어지게 되며, 과도한 산소가 공급되어도 수처리의 효율은 개선되지 않으며 반응에 사용되지 않은 산소들은 대기중으로 방출된다. 또한 유입수질에 따라 실시간으로 반응조 내 필요한 산소는 달라지게 되므로 유입수질에 맞는 효율적인 하수처리장 운영이 요구되고 있다. 하수처리장 내 적절한 산소를 공급하기 위하여 많은 연구들이 활발하게 진행되어 왔으나 실제생물학적 처리시 요구되는 산소의 양을 산정할 수 있는 한계점을 지니고 있으며, 하수 성분, 용량과 같은 환경에 따라 차이를 보이고 있어 범용적으로 사용하기에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 적용 한계점을 극복하기 위하여 하수도 설계 시 사용되어지고 있는 하수도 시설기준의 산소요구량 및 공기공급량 산정식을 통하여 유입수질에 따라 실제 하수처리장에 필요한 산소요구량 & 공기공급량을 산정하는 시스템을 개발하고자 하였다. 하수도 설계기준의 여러 가지 수식을 실제 하수처리장 내 필요한 요소로 변환시켜 범용적으로 사용가능한 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 하수처리장 송풍량 산정 시스템 적용에 따른 송풍량 절감 효율을 비교분석하기 위하여 2021년 A하수처리장의 4월 월간 데이터를 활용하여 하수처리장에서 필요한 송풍량을 산정하여 실제 사용된 송풍량과 비교 분석하여 송풍량 절감 효율을 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 실제 하수처리장 내 송풍량 산정 시스템을 도입하게 된다면 운전자 경험에 의존하고 있는 수동적인 제어 방식에서 벗어나 자율 제어를 통한 효율적인 하수처리장을 운영할 수 있어 송풍량 절감 및 탄소중립에도 이바지 할 수 있을 것이라고 판단된다.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of pyroligneous liquor on oxygen radicals and their scavenger enzymes in the liver of Cri/Bgi CD rats (7 rats per group). Male rats were fed a basic diet prepared in our Lab., PL-0 (Control), PL-1, PL-25, PL-50 and PL-75 groups were Prepared to be 0%, 1%, 25%, 50% and 75%with distilled water using pyroligneous liquor (35% of Choa Co. Ltd.), and were administrated orally for 8 weeks. Superoxide radical contents in liver mitochondria and microsomes were significantly decreased to 12-14%, 11-15%, respectively, in these PL-25 and PL-50groups compared with the control group. Hydroxyl radical content in mitochondria and microsomes were markedly decreased to 12-20% and 17%, respectively, in these PL-25 and PL-50% groups compared with the control group. Hydrogen peroxide content in mitochondria and microsomes were significantly decreased about 15-12% and 22-20% in liver of PL-25 and PL-50 groups compared with the control group. Mn-SOD and Cu/Zn-SOD activities in liver of PL-25 and PL-50 groups were remarkably increased to 15-25%, 11-16%, respectively, compared with the control group. GPx activities in mitochondria and microsomes were significantly increased in the liver of PL-25 and PL-50 groups compared with the control group. CAT activities in mitochondria and cytosol were significantly increased to 12-14%, 15-27%, respectively, in the liver of PL-25 and PL-50 groups compared with the control group. These results suggest that long term administration orally of 25 and 50% pyroligneous liquor may effectively inhibit the formation of oxygen free radicals, and also scavenger enzyme activities significantly increase through the administration orally.

Hypoxic bottom $(\leq2.0ml/l),\;40\%\;oxygen\;saturation)$ is formed in the semi-closed Wonmun bay during summer and autumn early. This study was carried out to know seasonal distribution of marine bacteria and the role of marine bacteria for forming the hypoxic bottom at Wonmun bay during summer and autumn early, 1990. During the study periods, 170 bacterial strains were isolated from sea water and sediment. Viable cell counts were ranged between $10^5-10^7\;cells/ml$. The dominant species were Acinetobacter spp. in spring, Flavobacerium spp. in summer, Pseudomonas spp. in autumn, Serratia spp. in winter. Because ETSA(Electron Transport System Activity) reveals potential consumption of oxygen in the aquatic microorganisms, the ETSA was used as potential consumption of oxygen in this study. The potential consumption of oxygen was in the range of $232.4-637.5{\mu}l/O_2/l/day$ by marine organism and $142.6-432.4{\mu}l/O_2/l/day$ by marine bacteria during the study periods. The ratio of potential oxygen consumption of marine bacteria to total marine microorganism was 0.54. The potential consumption of oxygen by marine bacteria closely related with the number of viable cells. Consequently, bacteria play an important role to form Hypoxic bottom at marine environment.
