The objective of this study is to evaluate the applicability of a manhole-filter odor eliminator that is installed on a manhole to remove hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) contained in the sewage of urban streets; $H_2S$ is the very cause of offensive odor from such sewage. An analysis of the capability of impregnated activated carbon, which is contained in the manhole filter, to adsorb hydrogen sulfide shows that some 99.8% of hydrogen sulfide can be removed. A performance evaluation of the manhole-filter odor eliminator, which was made on Manhole Section 4 known as the representative malodorous manhole section of Seoul, Korea, indicates that more than 97% of hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$), one of typical malodor-generating substances, can be eliminated. The results and findings of the study as described above suggest that the applicability of the manhole-filter odor eliminator to eliminate offensive odor generated from sewer manholes is satisfactory.

There are several kinds of hazardous materials in incinerator flue gas, such as particulate matter, acid gas, heavy metal, dioxin, etc. The activated carbon adsorption is considered as one of the methods removing dioxin from flue gas. Without any additional equipment and facilities, the activated carbon was mixed with lime and sprayed in the semi-drying reactor of an incinerator and filtered in the bag filter, and its efficiency of removing hazardous organic material was investigated. 1,2-dichlorobenzene (o-DCB) was used as a precursor material of dioxin and the effects of the activated carbon amount, the operating temperature of the reactor, and the atomizer r.p.m were measured and analyzed. Experimental results showed that the optimum outlet temperature of the reactor was $145^{\circ}C$ considering the performance of the bag filter, and the adsorption performance improved with the increase of the atomizer r.p.m. Also the performance of removing o-DCB in the bag filter is higher than of the semi-drying reactor.

A combustible producer gas composed of H₂, CO and CH₄ could be obtained by the thermal-chemical conversion of biomass. However, a large amount of particulate matters including tar generated causes the mal-function of turbines and engines or the fouling of pipelines. In this study, a wet scrubber using the soybean oil and bag filter were installed, and the removal efficiency was investigated. Hydrate limestone and wood char base activated carbon were pre-coated on the filter medium to prevent clogging of open pores. The removal efficiencies by the bag filter were 86 and 80% for the hydrated limestone and activated carbon coating, respectively. Overall, the collection when using a series of oil scrubbers and bag filters were 88%, while 83% for the filter coating material.

We have developed an electrostatic precipitation (ESP) type air cleaner for indoor air quality and investigated its performances regarding CADR (Clean air delivery rate), single-pass efficiency and gas removal efficiency. The ESP air cleaner used an ACF (Activated carbon fiber) filter for gas removal and the ACF as a high voltage electrode for particle removal. The ESP air cleaner was tested in a chamber with the volume of $1m^3$ regarding CADR and gas removal efficiency. The applied CADR area of the ESP was $1.8m^2$. Gas removal efficiency was tested with 3 gases (Acetaldehyde, Acetic acid, Ammonia). As the results of the gas removal efficiency, the ESP air cleaner shows the removal efficiencies of 90, 98 and 85% for acetaldehyde, acetic acid and ammonia, respectively.

Among dusts which were generated in AOD process producing a medium-low carbon ferromanganese, the dust collected in bag filter contained manganese about 63% and its phase was $Mn_3$$O_4$. the maximum extraction of Mn by nitric acid is about 67% because of remaining amorphous $MnO_2$. Therefore this research investigated reducibility of the activated charcoal in Mn extraction from the dust. Addition of charcoal over 10% of pulp density made possible Mn extraction of 90% at $70^{\circ}C$, 0.5N $HNO_3$. To convert $Mn_3$$O_4$ to MnO by reducing roasting, the minimum mixture ratio of activated charcoal was 5% in $750^{\circ}C$, 1 hour. Extraction of Mn from the reduced dust was over 99% with nitric acid at $25^{\circ}C$, 6N $HNO_3$, pulp density 150 g/l§.

I performed the research about the drinking water treatment by precoat filtration and activated carbon adsorption process in the D water treatment plant at Gwangju. D water treatment plant inlet water is supplied from Juam lake in Jeollanamdo. The results are as follows; 1. Element disk used in this experiment are R(pore size $10{\mu}m$), B(pore size $20{\mu}m$). And diatomaceous earth are A(cake pore size $3.5{\mu}m$), B(cake pore size $7{\mu}m$) and C(cake pore size $17{\mu}m$) 2. Filtrate of precoat filter during 30 min are B-C 10.2 > BB 5.7 > R-A 5.4 ($m^3/m^2$). 3.

Bacterial biomass and its activity were measured in two kinds of granular activated carbon (GAC), the experimental and existing biofiltration system in a drinking water plant. The bacterial biomass was around 210 to 250 nmol P/g WW with phospholipid concentration at acclimation of ozonation treatment. The phospholipid biomass shows more or less a declining gradient along filter depth and no clear seasonality in its values. On the other hand, the microbial activity of [$^3H$]-thymidine and [$^{14}C$]-acetate incorporation within cells increased significantly along the filter depth, showing the difference of three fold between the upper and bottom layer. These factors support the different microbial composition or metabolic activity along the depth of GAC column. Turnover rates, the rate of bacterial biomass and production of biofilm, ranged from 0.26 /hr to 0.37 /hr, indicating a highly rapid recovery itself at amature state. In the non-ozonation treatment, the bacterial biomass was lower than in the ozonation and biological activity also declined towards the filter depth. The biomass levels during cessation of ozonation in the existing GAC filters were 68% of the actively ozonated state.

The environmental controls for good conservation of all textile materials are follow as :1) Special RH conditions on textiles keep to the usually advocated 50∼55%.2) The effect of the temperature is too small to worry about in the applicable range, that is $20^{\circ}C$.3) It is important to keep soiling by air borne dirt to a minimum by an air filter or putting textiles in cases.4) Sulphur dioxide must be rekoved by an activated carbon filter or a water spray. And this concentration below $50\muGm^3$ can be regarded assatisfactory.5) Oxygen plays a part of deterioration proceses. The effect of nitrogend andinert gases in sealed show cases should be further studied.6) Ozone is detrimental to textiles. It can be removed by activated carbonfilter.7) The removal of UV radiation and blue light can be expected to increase the lifetime of dyeing and strength of fiber.50 lux is suggested for sensitive textile materials.
