The purpose of this study was to identity the probability of cross-contamination from the environment. For this, we examined foodservices at 20 universities/colleges for microbiological analysis of their working facilities and environment as well as their preventive equipment against cross-contamination. Seventy percent of the 20 foodservices were found to maintain one unified working area, which suggests high probability of contamination of food/utensils/equipment in the cooking area by pre-preparation or dish washing. According to the microbiological analysis, the hygiene acceptance ratio of working facilities in the clean zone was 70%, which was higher than the average 45% hygiene acceptance ratio of working facilities in the contamination operating zone. There was a significant difference in the total plate count (P<0.001) and coliform count (P<0.01), which demonstrates that work tables in the clean zone were in a good state compared to those in the contamination operating zone. In the contamination operating zone, refrigerator shelves had a high probability of cross-contamination. Regarding the floor surface and airborne microbes, cooking areas which should be maintained as clean zones had higher cross-contamination probability than those in the contamination operating zone. So corrective actions such as cleaning and sanitizing, keeping dry floors, lowered temperature and humidity, shoe disinfecting facilities, and checking concentrations, are necessary to manage floor surfaces and airborne microbes in the cooking area.

The practical studies on the method of particle contamination control for yield enhancement in the cleanroom were carried out. The method of the contamination control was considered, which is composed of data collection, data analysis, improvement action, verification, and implement control. The composition analysis for data collection and data analysis was used in the cellular phone module packaging lines. And this method was evaluated by the variation of yield loss between before and after improvement action. In case that the composition analysis was applied, the critical sources were selected and yield loss reduction through improvement actions was also investigated. From these results, it is concluded that the composition analysis is effective solutions for particle contamination control in the cleanroom.

Objectives This study examined the spatial distribution and the extent of soil contamination by heavy metals resulting from primitive, unconventional informal electronic waste recycling in the Agbogbloshie e-waste processing site (AEPS) in Ghana. Methods A total of 132 samples were collected at 100 m intervals, with a handheld global position system used in taking the location data of the soil sample points. Observing all procedural and quality assurance measures, the samples were analyzed for barium (Ba), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn), using X-ray fluorescence. Using environmental risk indices of contamination factor and degree of contamination ($C_{deg}$), we analyzed the individual contribution of each heavy metal contamination and the overall $C_{deg}$. We further used geostatistical techniques of spatial autocorrelation and variability to examine spatial distribution and extent of heavy metal contamination. Results Results from soil analysis showed that heavy metal concentrations were significantly higher than the Canadian Environmental Protection Agency and Dutch environmental standards. In an increasing order, Pb>Cd>Hg>Cu>Zn>Cr>Co>Ba>Ni contributed significantly to the overall $C_{deg}$. Contamination was highest in the main working areas of burning and dismantling sites, indicating the influence of recycling activities. Geostatistical analysis also revealed that heavy metal contamination spreads beyond the main working areas to residential, recreational, farming, and commercial areas. Conclusions Our results show that the studied heavy metals are ubiquitous within AEPS and the significantly high concentration of these metals reflect the contamination factor and $C_{deg}$, indicating soil contamination in AEPS with the nine heavy metals studied.

This study has tried to develop the modified DRASTIC Model by supplying the parameters, such as structural lineament density and land-use, into conventional DRASTIC model, and to predict the potential of groundwater contamination using GIS in Hwanam 2 District, Gyeonggi Province, Korea. Since the aquifers in Korea is generally through the joints of rock-mass in hydrogeological environment, lineament density affects to the behavior of groundwater and contaminated plumes directly, and land-use reflect the effect of point or non-point source of contamination indirectly. For the statistical analysis, lattice-layers of each parameter were generated, and then level of confidence was assessed by analyzing each correlation coefficient. Groundwater contamination potential map was achieved as a final result by comparing modified DRASTIC potential and the amount of pollutant load logically. The result suggest the predictability of contamination potential in a specified area in the respects of hydrogeological aspect and water quality.

우주환경에서 임무를 수행하는 인공위성의 경우, 조립, 시험, 운용시점까지 위성 표면에 흡착되는 오염물질을 최소화하기 위하여 전 기간 동안 세심한 주의를 기울여야 한다. 위성표면에 흡착된 미세한 오염물질은, 고진공 및 고온, 극저온이 반복되는 가혹한 우주환경 속에서 위성의 성능저하 및 효율의 손실을 가져올 수 있다. 예를 들어 위성 표면에 떨어진 입자오염은 별 추적장치의 오류를 발생시킴에 따른 위성 자세제어의 실패를 가져올 수도 있고, 표면에 흡착된 분자오염은 렌즈, 미러, 윈도우 등의 광학기기 및 주요 민감 표면에 작용하여 광학적 특성과 열제어 성능의 저하를 가져올 수 있다. 위성의 조립 및 시험을 관장하는 한국항공우주연구원에서는 위성의 오염물질에 대한 노출을 최소화하기 위해, 오염측정이 이루어지는 청정실을 운용하고 있는데, 본 논문에서는 청정실 및 진공챔버 내의 부유입자측정, 표면입자오염측정, 표면분자오염측정법을 소개하고 오염측정 결과에 대한 분석을 수행하였다.

The practical studies on the method of particle contamination control for yield enhancement in the cleanroom were carried out. The method of the contamination control was proposed, which are composed of data collection, data analysis, improvement action, verification, and implement control. The partition check method and the composition analysis for data collection and data analysis were respectively used in the main board and the cellular phone module production lines. And these methods were evaluated by the variation of yield loss between before and after improvement action. In case that the partition check method was applied, the critical process step was selected and yield loss reduction through improvement actions was observed. While in case that the composition analysis was applied, the critical sources were selected and yield loss reduction through improvement actions was also investigated. From these results, it is concluded that the partition check and the composition analysis are effective solutions for particle contamination control in the cleanroom production lines.

Contamination has the potential for degrading the performance of the optical payload beyond the limits defined by mission requirements, therefore it must be considered a risk to system performance and must be mitigated. To mitigate contamination problem, contamination budget is allocated according to the contamination requirements which is derived from contamination effect analysis. Once the contamination budget is allocated, prediction for on-ground and in-orbit contaminants amounts and cleanliness control is performed. In this article, typical contamination control for observation satellite is described.

Recently, with the rapid growth of industry, environmental condition became worse. With the mix of the various contaminants, such as, salts, dust and industrial pollutants, synergy effect could be happened. So, many researches have been focused on the issue. The cause of natural accident could be classified as, lightning, rainstorm and contamination. However, the accident by contamination influences on the larger area than that by lightning, and, in the case of rapid contamination, it takes a shorter time than rainstorm. The salt contaminant is one of the most representative pollutants, and known as the main source of the accident by contamination. So, in this investigation we make a research on the prediction of contamination degree through the relationship analysis between the climatic factor and ESDD.
