Although there are various factors that threaten the security of ships, one of the most harmful is corrosion. It is not easy to find corroding areas and the status of corrosion, even though corrosion causes serious problems such as submergence and marine pollution as a result of leaking oil and polluted water. To monitor the corrosion of ships, non-destructive inspection, weight loss coupons, electrical resistance, linear polarization resistance, zero resistance ammeter, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy have been developed. However, these methods require much time to detect corrosion, and most are not appropriate for real time monitoring. Coating, sacrificial anode, and impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) methods have been developed to control corrosion. The ICCP and sacrificial anode methods are the most popular ways to prevent ship corrosion. However, ICCP is only appropriate for the outside of a ship and cannot be used for complex structures such as ballast tanks because these are composed of many separate chambers. Sacrificial anodes have to be replaced periodically. This paper proposes an integrated corrosion monitoring and control system (ICMCS) that can detect corrosion in real time and is appropriate for complex structures such as ballast tanks. Because the system uses titanium for an anode, exhausted anodes do not need to be replaced.

KEPCO has experienced eight oil leakage failures due to POF cable corrosion in the 154KV underground POF cable transmission line since the line was operated in 1976. Experimentally, We have verified that the cause of the failure is electrolytic corrosion of the cable owing to subway leakage current. For the countermeasure, We adopted the total Cathodic Protection System by the use of Victim Anode, Forced Drainage Method and Impressed Current Method with polarization cell.

The chemical behavior and properties of the redox state of environmental pollutants were investigated using electrochemical methods. Cyclic voltammograms were performed on the compounds to measure the variations in the redox reactions. Temperature and pH were established as influencing the redox potential and current. The electrode reactions were a mixture of quasi-reversible and irreversible Precesses, which changed according to the reaction current. Although the Co(BPA)$_2$ and Cu(BPA)$_2$ compounds were not found to dissociate in wastewater, they were very unstable(K=1.02).

Eleven phenolic compounds including caffeic acid were identified through analyzing the aqueous extracts of Pinus rigida by HPLC. Among them, protocatechuic acid was the maximum amount of 6.84 ppm. Seed germination of Cassia mimosoides var. nomame was significantly stimulated by the extract of P. rigida leaves in the proportion ot concentration. However, root growth was elevalted at a threshold concentration below 25%, but it was inhibited at high concentrations. In 50% extract of P. rigida, upward root tip of C. mimosoides var. nomame showed negageotropism which the root end showed necrosis. New isozyme bands were induced indicating concentration activity of peroxidase from the extract of C. mimosoides var. nomame, especially in the cathodic region. Although it reduced the mumber of isozyme bands of esterase, esterase activities were stimulated in the anodic region of C. mimosoides var. nomame. The activity of amylase was not remarkably different between control and treatment.

본 연구에서는 산성전리수와 환원전리수의 미생물 제어력을 정량적으로 비교하였다. 산성전리수와 환원전리수에 병원성 미생물을 각각 시간별로 노출시킨 결과, 산성 전리수와 환원전리수 모두 미생물을 제어 할 수 있다. 특히 산성 전리수는 각종 병원성 미생물에 대하여 순간적으로 미생물을 제어하는 강력한 살균효과를 보여주었다. 이에 비해 환원전리수는 산성전리수의 강력한 미생물 제어력에는 미치지 못하기는 하지만, 시판되는 무기 항균제보다는 우수하거나 비슷한 미생물 제어력을 보여주었다.

This thesis is about the Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) control and monitoring system. which brings protection against the corrosion of the ship's hull in the sea environments. The ICCP system is composed of a power supply. anode. reference electrode and controller. AC sources from the ship's generator are converted to DC sources in terms of power supply, and a protection current is sent to ship's hull though anode. The controller fully senses whether or not the detected potential is within a range of protection of ship's hull and then it is automatically controlled to increase or decrease the amount of protective current to be sent to the anode. The monitoring system with RS 232/485 communication is also studied in order to check the normal state of the system at a long period. because an operator does not always watch over this system and thus the system cannot operate well because of his or her negligent management. Since the vessel always navigates in the sea. an characteristics experiment of the ICCP system is conducted by introducing various corrosive environmental factors such as velocity, resistivity, dissolved oxygen, PH, temperature and contamination degree. These results must be referred to when the ICCP system is set up. In short. the ICCP is a multi-system for use on ships and on land structures because it includes a safety device. It is suggested that this system can accomodate a ship's automation and will be very useful.

The plantlet was regenerated on MS medium containing BAP (2 mg/I) and 1M (1 mg/I) from leaf discs of pepper after 3 weeks of culture. And then, we investigated the activity of peroxidase and esterase and the pattern of their isozymes from leaf, stem and root in order to observe physiological and biochemical changes on the developemental stage, respectively. The peroxidase was expressed with tissue specificity because peroxidase activity according to the developemental stage of the tissue was not only highest in the leaf of the pepper at 10 days after it germinated but also 2 new bands of its isozyme were found in pI 7.2 and pI 5.2. However, a new pI 3.4 band was found in the leaf and root of the pepper after 14 days of germination, and in the stem was found out pI 5.2 band. As regeneration of leaf dises was progressed, its peroxiase activity was increased about 80% more than that of control after 14 days of culture and new pI 3.2 and 6.5 bands of it isozyme were found. The results suggested that peroxidase would be connected with regeneration of pepper. Also, esterase activity was increased about 50% more than that of control after 14 days of culture, the pattern of esterase isozyme was shown to be 3 cathodic bands and 1 anodic band after 7 days of culture.ulture.

Recently, with rapid development in marine and shipbuilding industries such as marine structures, ships and chemical plants for ship, there occurs much interest in the study on corrosion characteristics played an important role in mechanical design. This paper was studies on the corrosion characteristics of chromium plating in the marine environment. Under the various specific resistance, the electrochemical polarization test of chromium plating was carried out. And thus corrosion potential, polarization resistance, corrosion current density, control efficiency of corrosion and polarization control behavior of chromium plating are investigated. The main results are as the followed : 1. The polarization resistance of Cr plating and Ni become higher than that of base metal, also and these material become low with decrease of the specific resistance. 2. As the specific resistance decreases, the corrosion current density of Cr and Ni plating is lower than that of base metal. 3. The corrosion reaction of Cr plating, Ni plating and base metal vs. specific resistance is cathodic control.

Corrosion is never avoided in the use rf materials with various environments. The underwater hull is normally protected against rusting by several coatings of anti-corrosive paint. The purpose of ICCP(Impressed Current Cathodic Protection) system is to eliminate the rusting or corrosion, which occurs on metal immersed in seawater. This thesis is about the ICCP control and monitoring system, which brings protection against the corrosion of the ship's hull in the sea environments. The test system for ICCP is composed of a power supply, anode, reference electrode and controller. The test system is composed power supply, anode, ref electrode, shunt and etc. The protection current is sent to the protection area though anode. Reference electrode senses whether or not the detected potential is within a range of protection of test equipment and then it is automatically controlled to increase or decrease the amount of protective current to be sent to the anode by controller. The monitoring system with LabView is also detected in order to check the normal state of the system at operation period, because an operator does not always watch over this system and thus the system cannot operate well because rf his or her negligent management. This paper was studied the variation of potential and current density with environment factors, velocity and time, and the experimental results will be explained Also, It is suggested that this system can accommodate a ship's automation for SCMS(Ship Control and Management System) and will be very useful.

The construction of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) boats is decreasing trend since the application of international regulations on the control of marine environmental pollution, which recommended the use of environmentally friendly materials. The aluminum alloy used with material for ship is a superior to FRP. It is environmental friendly, easy to recycle, and provides a high added value to fishing boats. However, the welding for Al alloy materials have many problems, such as deformation by welding heat and effect of the working environment. In this paper, it was carried out welding by robot with welding material of ER5183 and ER5556 on 6061-T6 Al alloy for ship. The mechanical and electrochemical characteristics evaluated for specimen welded by robot. The cathodic polarization trend for the base metal and welding metal showed the effects of concentration polarization due to oxygen reduction and activation polarization due to hydrogen generation. The hardnesses of welding zone and heat affected zone are lower than that of base metal. At the result of tensile test, the specimen welded with ER5183 presented excellent property compared with ER5556.
