Effect of organic loading rate on digester performance was evaluated under the conditions of same surface area/reactor volume ratio and different reactor diameter. At the low loading rate of $0.4\;kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}d$, high rate of organic removal could be obtained regardless of reactor diameter. It can be estimated that reactor configuration can not affect reactor performance at the low loading rate. However, different performance depending on reactor diameter was observed at the organic loading rate of $6\;kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}d$. That is, volatile acid accumulation and low COD removal efficiency was observed in reactor having 6.4 cm diameter, while volatile acid was not accumulated at all and high COD removal efficiency was observed in reactor having 3 cm diameter. Such a difference of reactor performance depending on reactor diameter can be explained that sludge bed can be fluidized by evolved gas bubble in narrow reactor while sludge bed can not be fluidized by evolved gas bubble only in wide reactor. At a high organic loading rate of $20\;kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}d$, it can be judged that there is no relation between reactor configuration and reactor performance because all reactors showed very low COD removal efficiencies regardless of reactor diameter. Sludge bed fluidization is one of the most important factors in achieving efficient start-up of anaerobic digester. Narrow and tall type reactor is favorable condition for making sludge bed fluidization at a constant surface area/reactor volume ratio. Thus, it can be judged that reactor configuration and sludge bed fluidization have great influence to reactor performance.

Ionic liquids (ILs) are the ionic salts pertaining to liquid-state at lower temperature than $100^{\circ}C$. ILs have attracted attention as new media because of their peculiar chemical, physical or electrical properties such as low volatility, nonflammability, liquid-phase stability at high temperature, high ability in solvating organic, inorganic or polymeric materials, and high ionic conductivity. Since the properties can be modified by assembling the pair using various anions and cations, ILs are often called designer solvents. In addition, ILs have been expected as new green media to replace the volatile organic solvents, which have been widely used in chemical, energy, material, and electronic industries, as well as to enhance the reaction activity and selectivity. In this review paper, the structures, properties, applications, and technology trend of ILS are introduced.

This study was aimed at the detection of 40 semi-volatile organic base/neutral compounds from soil among 129 priority pollutants listed by EPA. Two extraction procedures, sonication extraction and Soxhlet extraction, were studied as a extraction and concentration method for priority pollutants in soil. Extracts were analyted by GC/MS-SIM(selected ion monitoring). The analytical methods were tested by standard compounds spiked into blank soil. Accuracy and precision of the methods were measured by calculation of mean recovery and mean relative standard deviation. And the method detection limits were estimated.

Characteristics of hydrogen production from various food wastes in anaerobic batch reactors were evaluated to assess the energy potential of organic wastes. Organic wastes which were used in this study were scallion as vegetable, apple as fruit, rice as grain and pork as meat. Ultimate hydrogen yield of scallion, apple, rice and pork were 0.46, 0.47, 0.62 and $0.05mol\;H_2/mol\;hexose$, respectively. On the other hand, hydrogen production rates of scallion, apple, rice and pork were 0.013, 0.021, 0.014 and $0.005mol\;H_2/mol\;hexose/h$, respectively. These results indicated that anaerobic hydrogen fermentation from food waste except for meat was effective in removing organic material as well as producing renewable energy. Volatile fatty acids increased as hydraulic retention time was increased. In the hydrogen fermentation, acidification degree of rice was measured as the highest rate of 75.8% whereas pork was found as the lowest rate of 35.2%.

유기물/무기물 나노 복합체를 사용하여 제작한 메모리 소자는 간단한 공정과 3차원의 고집적, 그리고 플렉서블한 특성을 가지고 있어 차세대 전자 소자 제작에 매우 유용한 소재이기 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 다양한 유기물 메모리 소자중에서 유기 쌍안정성 소자(organic bistable devices, OBD)의 전하 수송 메커니즘은 많이 연구가 되었지만, 트랩의 밀도와 분포에 따른 전기적 특성에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 두 전극 사이에 나노 입자가 분산되어 있는 유기물 박막에 존재하는 트랩의 밀도와 분포로 인해 같은 인가전압에서도 다른 전도율이 나타나는 현상을 분석하였다. 하부 전극으로 Indium-tin-oxide가 코팅된 유리기판과 상부 전극인 Al 사이에 나노입자가 분산된 폴리스티렌 박막을 기억 매체로 사용하는 OBD를 제작하였다. OBD의 전기적 특성을 관찰하기 위하여 space-charge-limited-current (SCLS) 모델을 사용한 이론적인 연구를 실험 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 계산된 전류-전압 결과는 트랩 깊이에 따른 가우스 분포로 이루어진 개선된 SCLS 모델을 사용하였을 때 측정된 전류-전압 결과와 잘 일치 하였다. 낮은 인가전압에서 Ohmic 전류가 생기는 것을 개선된 SCLS 모델과 병렬저항을 사용하여 설명하였다. 이 연구 결과는 유기물/무기물 나노 복합체를 사용하여 제작한 OBD의 트랩의 밀도와 분포에 따른 전기적 특성을 이해하는데 도움을 준다.

We investigated the distribution of organic matter and trace metals in surface sediment from Tonyeong coast. To determine the status of trace metal pollution, we also conducted an ecological risk assessment. Relatively high concentration of TN (total nitrogen), TOC (total organic carbon), and AVS (acid volatile sulfide) was found in surface sediment located in the narrow channel (site 35-38). Spatial distribution of Cd, Cr, Ni, Co, Hg, and Zn in surface sediment was similar and high Cu concentrations were found in narrow channel. The assessment of heavy metal pollution was derived using the Enrichment factors (EF). The enrichment factor indicated that Cd was no enrichment (EF<1), Pb, Cr, Ni, Co, Zn, and Hg were minor enrichment (1

무기물/유기물 나노복합체로 제작한 유기 쌍안정성 형태의 메모리 소자는 공정이 단순하고 뛰어난 유연성을 갖고 있기 때문에 플렉서블 메모리 소자에서 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 다양한 연구에도 불구하고 절연성 고분자 박막 내부에 분산 된 나노입자를 이용하여 제작한 저항성 구조의 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 전하수송 메커니즘에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 CuInS2 (CIS)/ZnS 나노입자가 분산되어 있는 절연성 고분자 박막을 사용한 기억소자의 전하수송 메커니즘을 규명하였다. 본 연구는 indium-tin-oxide (ITO)가 코팅된 플렉서블 polyethylene terephthalate (PET) 기판을 화학물질로 세척한 후 CIS/ZnS 나노입자와 절연성 고분자인 poly(N-vinylcarbazole)가 혼합된 용액을 스핀코팅 방법으로 도포했다. 도포된 용액에 열처리를 하여 용매를 제거한 후, 형성된 박막을 저항 변화 층으로 사용하였다. 제작된 메모리 소자는 Al 상부 전극을 고 진공에서 열 증착 방식을 이용하여 PET/ITO/CIS-ZnS 나노입자가 분산된 절연성 고분자/Al 구조를 갖는 저항성 기억 소자를 제작하였다. 소자의 전류-전압 (I-V) 특성 결과는 같은 전압에서 전도도가 높은 상태 (ON)와 낮은 상태 (OFF)가 존재하는 걸을 관찰하였다. 실험을 통해 두 상태 변화를 일으키는 일정 전압을 가하기 전까지 각각의 ON 또는 OFF 상태를 계속 유지하여 비휘발성 메모리 소자로 활용할 수 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. ON 또는 OFF 상태의 전기적 스트레스를 측정으로 ON과 OFF 상태가 안정성을 가지는 것을 관찰 하였다. I-V 특성 결과를 기초로 메모리 소자의 전하수송 메커니즘을 규명 하였다.

In this article, I will introduce recent developments of environmental-friendly materials fabricated using atomic layer deposition (ALD). Advantages of ALD include fine control of the thin film thickness and formation of a homogeneous thin fim on complex-structured three-dimensional substrates. Such advantages of ALD can be exploited for fabricating environmental-friendly materials. Porous membranes such as anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) can be used as a substrate for $TiO_2$ coating with a thickness of about 10 nm, and the $TiO_2$-coated AAO can be used as filter of volatile organic compound such as toluene. The unique structural property of AAO in combination with a high adsorption capacity of amorphous $TiO_2$ can be exploited in this case. $TiO_2$ can be also deposited on nanodiamonds and Ni powder, which can be used as photocatalyst for degradation of toluene, and $CO_2$ reforming of methane catalyst, respectively. One can produce structures, in which the substrates are only partially covered by $TiO_2$ domains, and these structures turns out to be catalytically more active than bare substrates, or complete core-shell structures. We show that the ALD can be widely used not only in the semiconductor industry, but also environmental science.

Serial basic tests were conducted for the determination of fundamental kinetics and for the actual application of kinetic parameter to food waste digestion with precise measurement of methane production under a thermophilic condition. The effects of food particle size, sodium ion concentration, and volatile solid (VS) loading rate on the anaerobic thermophilic food waste digestion process were investigated. Results of serial test for the determination of fundamental kinetic coefficients showed the value of k (maximum substrate utilization rate coefficient) and KS (half-saturation coefficient) as $0.24hr^{-1}$ and $700mg/{\ell}$, respectively, for non-inhibiting organic loading range. No inhibition effect was shown until $5g/{\ell}$ of sodium ion concentration was applied to a serum bottle reactor. However, the volume of methane gas was decreased gradually when the concentrations of more than $5g/{\ell}$ of sodium ion applied. All sizes of food waste particle showed the same constants (A : 0.45) but the maximum substrate utilization rate constant ($k_{HA}$) was inversely proportional to particle size. As an average particle size increased from 1.02 mm to 2.14 mm, $k_{HA}$ decreased from $0.0033hr^{-1}$ to $0.0015hr^{-1}$. The result reveals that particle size is one of the most important factors in anaerobic food waste digestion. There was no inhibition effect of sodium ion when VS loading rate was $30g/{\ell}$. And maximum injection concentration of VS loading rate was determined about $40g/{\ell}$.
