상수처리시 토양현탁액과 같은 유기물이 있을 때 산화제, 응집제 및 흡착제의 종류를 달리하고 처리방법을 변경시켰을 때 THMs 및 유기물의 제거정도를 조사하였다. 산화제로 처리된 $ClO_2$가 다른 산화제인 $Cl_2,\;NH_2Cl,\;KMnO_2$ 및 $O_3$ 보다 THMs 생성억제와 THMs의 전구물질인 유기물을 제거시키는데 가장 효율적이었다. 산화제$(Cl_2,\;NH_2Cl,\;KMnO_4,\;ClO_2,\;O_3)$를 응집 이후에 처리하였을 때 유기물의 양은 거의 변화가 없었으나 THMs의 생성량은 응집 이전 처리보다 약 $36.7{\sim}8.2%$ 정도 감소하였다. 수중 유기물을 응집 제거시키기 위하여 응집제로 alum과 ferric sulfate를 처리하였을 때 응집 효율은 유기물의 분자량 분포에 따라 상이하게 나타났다. THMs 제거 및 생성 억제를 위한 활성탄의 처리는 여과 이후의 처리가 산화제 처리 이전의 활성탄 처리보다 효과적이었다.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) has been used as a raw material in many traditional preparations since the ancient time. As a component of traditional health products, Ginger is known to be effective as appetite enhancer, anticold and anti-inflammation. This study was performed to investigate the immunomodulative effects of Ginger in mouse, using in vitro and ex vivo experiments. In vitro experiment, the mice splenocytes proliferation and three kinds of cytokines (IL-1 $\beta$, IL-6, and TNF-$\alpha$) prodution by peritoneal macrophages cultured with ethanol and water extracts of Ginger were used to indicate the immunomodulative effect. In order to elucidate the immunomodulative effects of Ginger ex vivo, water extract of Ginger was orally administrated into mice, and isolated splencytes and macrophages were used as experimental model. Ex vivo experiment, six to seven week old mice were fed ad libitum on a chow diet, and water extract of finger was orally administrated every other day for four weeks at two different concentractions (50 and 500 mg/kg B.W./day). In vitro study, the splenocytes proliferation was increased when water extract was supplemented in the range of 50-500 $\mu$l/ml concentration. In case of cytokines production, IL-1 $\beta$, IL-6 and TNF-$\alpha$ released by activated peritoneal macrophages were augmented by the supplementation of water extract of the Ginger. Ex vivo experiment, the highest proliferation of splenocytes and production of cytokines by activated peritoneal macrophages were seen in the mice orally administrated at the concentration of 500 mg/kg B.W./day. In conclusion, this study suggests that Ginger extracts may enhance the immune function by regulating the splenocytes proliferation and enhancing the cytokine prodution capacity by activated macrophages in mice.

현재까지 알칼리 활성화제를 사용한 무시멘트 콘크리트의 연구는 슬럼프, 강도 및 내구성 등 기본적인 재료성질에 대해서 주로 수행되어져 왔다. 그러나 알칼리 활성화제를 사용한 무시멘트 콘크리트의 구조부재에의 적용을 위해서는 탄성계수, 응력-변형률 관계 및 구조 부재 거동 등에 대한 연구가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 50MPa급 알칼리 활성 슬래그 콘크리트를 사용한 철근콘크리트 보시험체 6개를 제작한 후, 전단실험을 수행하였다. 실험과 해석에 의해 얻은 공칭전단강도는 전단철근이 배치되어 있는 시험체에서는 최대 18% 정도의 차이를 보이나, 전단철근이 없는 시험체에서는 최대 31% 정도의 차이를 보였으며 또한 알칼리 활성 슬래그 콘크리트의 설계전단강도에 비하여 전단강도 실험값이 22~57% 정도 크게 나타나 전단설계식이 상당히 안전측임을 알 수 있다.

Solar reforming of methane with CO2 was successfully tested with a direct irradiated absorber on a parabolic dish capable of 5kWth solar power. And the new type of double-layer absorber-the front layer, porous metal foam which absorbs the radiation and transfers the heat from material to gas, and the back layer, catalytically-activated metal foam-was prepared, and its activity was tested by using electric furnace. Ni was applied as the active metal on the gamma-Al2O3 coated Ni metal foam for the preparation of the catalytically-activated metal foam layer. Compared to conventional direct irradiation of the catalytically activated metal foam absorber, this new type of double layer absorber is found to exhibit a superior reaction and thermal storage performance at the fluctuating incident solar radiation. In addition, unlike direct irradiation of the foam absorber, double layer absorber has better thermal resistance, which prevents the emergence of cracks caused by mechanical or thermal shock. The total solar power absorbed reached up to 3.25kW and the maximum CH4 conversion was almost 59%.

This study was conducted to evaluate desorption efficiencies by types of desorption solvent for polar and non-polar organic compounds collected on activated charcoal tubes. Analytes tested were toluene, m-xylene, isobutyl alcohol, n-butyl alcohol, cellosolve acetate, and butyl cellosolve. Three different concentration levels of spiked sample were made. Types of cosolvent mixed with the main solvent, $CS_2$, were methanol, pentanol, and dimethylformamide (DMF) and the cosolvent for methylenechloride was methanol. The amounts of cosolvent added to the main solvent were 1, 5, and 10% by volume (v/v%), respectively. The results were as follows: 1. For all mixed solvents except 1% methanol and 1% pentanol with $CS_2$, desorption efficiency significantly increased, compared with that of $CS_2$ alone. 2. Desorption efficiency increased by increasing analyte loading on charcoal tube regardless of mixed solvents used and the material polarity. 3. For all cosolvents mixed with $CS_2$ by 1% and 5% volume, desorption efficiency for non-polar compound was significantly higher than that of polar compound. For the 10% mixed solvents and the methylenechloride mixed with methanol, the results were opposite. 4. The lowest mean percent bias of 4.79% was obtained from the 5% DMF-$CS_2$ mixed solvent, followed by 4.82% from the 10% DMF-$CS_2$ solvent while the highest bias of 23.26% was from the solvent of $CS_2$ alone. Based on the results of this study, in order to increase desorption efficiency, it is recommended to add such cosolvents as methanol, pentanol, and DMF to $CS_2$, preferably 5% by volume for analyzing polar compounds collected in charcoal tubes.

알칼리 활성슬래그(AAS)는 $CO_2$ 배출 부하가 큰 보통포틀랜드시멘트(OPC)의 가장 확실한 대체 재료로써 구조재로 이용하기 위해서는 내구성 평가 및 검증이 필요하다. 내구성 평가지표의 큰 비중을 차지하고 있는 것이 탄산화저항성인데, 알칼리 활성슬래그는 낮은 칼슘 함유량 때문에 OPC보다 탄산화 저항성이 약한 것으로 알려져 있다. 이 연구에서는 알칼리 활성슬래그의 모재료인 고로슬래그의 염기도(CaO/$SiO_2$)를 메카노-케미컬 합성법에 의해 조정하고, 조정된 염기도에 따라 수화생성물의 구성변화와 탄산화 전 후의 물리적 특성이 어떻게 변하는지 살펴보았다. 실험 결과 염기도가 높을수록 강도 증가와 탄산화 저항성이 향상되고, 탄산화 후 강도 저하가 개선되었다.

Quality test for activated carbon(AC) filter used for drinking water purifier is now an obligatory test and the standard material for valid purifying amount in water purifier performance test has been changed from residual chlorine to chloroform according to the notice of Ministry of Environment in 2006. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the ingredients of AC filters by confirming chloroform removal rate of AC filter and conducting 4 adsorption tests (Iodine, methylene blue decolorization, phenol value, ADS value) for AC filters provided by manufacturers. With water pressure of $1kgf/cm^2$, 1,500 liters of prepared inflow went through to check chloroform removal rate. As a result, product with removal rate of below 60% from all products. On the other hand, 4 adsorption tests were conducted for filters in the market and filters from manufacturers. None of the products satisfied all 4 tests. In particular, they showed great shortage to the standard in phenol value and ADS value test. However, manufacturers' filter showed much better performance than filters in the market. Also, the result of valid purifying amount test for each of five products of appropriate product and inappropriate product based on filter quality test showed average 4,440 liters for appropriate product and average 2,620 liters for inappropriate product. According to the result, it is shown that the filter with good adsorption also had good chloroform removal efficiency and adsorption efficiency. Therefore, it is expected that customers can screen good quality product through obligatory conduct of filter quality test. However, it is considered that complementation in system is required for future inspection.

The effluent limitations for individual industry based on the best available technology economically achievable (BAT) have been required to achieve effective regulation. BAT assessment criteria that are suitable for the circumstances of Korean industry were developed in the previous study. The criteria were applied to determine the BAT for leather tanning and finishing industry. For the evaluation BAT, a subcategorization for the industry considering wastewater characteristics, source equipments, raw material and so on should be suggested. Three subcategories: A) Unharing, Chrome Tan, Retan-Wet Finish, B) Chrome Tan, Retan-Wet Finish, and C) Furskins were proposed in this study. Wastewater discharged from the each category contains high concentration of COD, chrome, nitrogen and sulfide. In particular, the concentration of nitrogen from the subcategory A is significantly greater. Twenty sites were surveyed and wastewater qualities were analyzed. Therefore, six different technologies were applied to the subcategory A for the end-of-pipe treatment technology, and a technology was used in the subcategory B and C, respectively. The technology candidates were evaluated in terms of environmental impacts, economically achievability, treatment performance and economical reasonability. As the result, the technology options for each subcategories: A) primary chemical precipitation + modified Ludzack-Ettinger process (MLE) + secondary chemical precipitation, B) chemical precipitation + typical activated-sludge process + Fenton oxidation, C) chemical precipitation + typical activated-sludge process + batch Fenton oxidation or batch activated carbon treatment were selected as the BAT, respectively.

In this study, we fabricated tubular ceramic support for segmented-in-series solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) by using CSZ(CaO-stabilized $ZrO_2$) as main material and activated carbon as pore former. Thermal expansion properties of ceramic support with different amounts of activated carbon were analyzed by using dilatometer to decide a suitable sintering temperature. The tubular ceramic supports with different amounts of activated carbon (5, 10, 15wt.%) were fabricated by the extrusion technique. After sintering at $1100^{\circ}C$ and $1400^{\circ}C$ for 5h., cross section and surface morphology of tubular ceramic support were analyzed by using SEM image. Also, the porosity, mechanical property, gas permeability of tubular ceramic supports was measured. Based on these results, we established the suitable fabrication technique of tubular ceramic support for segmented-in-series SOFC.
