The effects on birch (Betula spp.) of elevated carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) and ozone ($O_3$), which are both increasing in the troposphere, are surveyed in detail based on the literature. Birches establish themselves in the open field after disturbances, and then become dominant trees in temperate or boreal forests. Ecophysiological approaches include the measurement of photosynthesis, biomass, growth, and survival of seedlings and trees. Elevated $CO_2$ levels give rise to a net enhancement of the growth of birch trees, whereas high $O_3$ generally reduces growth. Although the effects of the two are opposed, there is also an interactive effect. Basic physiological responses of the single genus Betula to $CO_2$ and $O_3$ are set out, and some data are summarized regarding ecological interactions between trees, or between trees and other organisms.

The textile wastewater discharged from printing and dyeing processes is characterized by high chemical oxygen demand(COD), low biochemical oxygen demand(BOD), and heavy color. The release of dyes into the environment constitutes only small proportion of water pollution, but dyes are visible in small quantities due to their brilliance. In this study, We are investigated to optimization of Ozone Oxidation process for Decolorization.

The feasibility study for the application of the removal and mineralization of Rhodamine B (RhB) was performed in a batch electrochemical reactor. The electro/UV process was consisted of DSA (dimensionally stable anode) electrode and UV-C or ozone lamp. The experimental results showed that RhB removal by the ozone lamp was higher than that of the UV-C lamp. Optimum current of the electro/UV process was 1 A. The electrochemical, UV and electro/UV process could completely degrade RhB, while a prolonged treatment was necessary to reach a high level RhB mineralization. It was observed that RhB removal in electro/UV process is similar to the sum of the UV and electrolytic decolorization. However, it was found that the COD of RhB could be degraded more efficiently by the electro/UV process (90.2 %) than the sum of the two individual oxidation processes [UV (19.7%) and electrolytic process (50.8%)]. A synergetic effect was demonstrated between the UV and electrolysis.

본 논문에서는 LabVIEW program을 사용하여 크기가 다른 파이렉스 글라스 방전관의 오존 농도를 연속적으로 측정하여 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 Flux-2D program을 사용하여 파이렉스 방전관의 전계를 분석하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면 1[$\ell$/min]에서 가장 오존 농도가 높았으며, 파이렉스 글라스 방전관 I 에서는 약 62[g/$m^3$]. 파이렉스 글라스 방전관II 에서는 약 48[g/$m^3$]으로 나타났다. 또한 고압 펄스 전원에 따른 오존농도 변화를 3D분석을 통해 확인 할 수 있었다. 확인된 분석을 통해 오존농도를 요구하는 만큼 생성한다면, 에너지 손실을 감소시키고 전극 수병을 최대화 할 수 있다.

In this paper, a silent discharge type ozonizer has been designed and fabricated for environment improvement. After that discharge and ozone generation characteristics in accordance with frequency of power supply and input voltage were investigated Consumed discharge un of silent discharge type ozonizer was calculated by computer program designed in "Sigma Hot 2000" program. The data needed for calculation was stored as ASCII file type from oscilloscope.

Halon was known as a cause of the ozone layer destruction. In 1987, it was designated as one of the ozone-layer-destroying materials in the Montreal Protocol. Therefore substitutes of Halon agent has been developed including inert gas extinguish system, which is one of the most widely used fire extinguishing system. This study intended to increase the efficiency of inert gas extinguishing agent by using inert gas additives. As IG-541 shows high extinguishing power, the experiment was performed to measure the effects of gaseous additives to it. Cup-burner fire extinguishing apparatus was used with n-Heptane fuel. Among many of pure inert gaseous agents, Helium showed the most excellent extinguishing power. When Helium was added to IG-541, fire extinguishing power was increased and the concentration of oxygen in chimney also risen. By adding Helium to IG-541, the effectiveness of inert gas fire extinguishing system is able to be increased.

This study aims to inactivate Artemia sp. (Zooplankton) in ballast water through the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma process. The DBD plasma process has the advantage of enabling direct electric discharge in water and utilizing chemically active species generated by the plasma reaction. The experimental conditions for plasma reaction are as follows; high voltage of 9-22 kV, plasma reaction time of 15-600 s, and air flow rate of 0.5-5.5 L/min. The results showed that the optimal experimental conditions for Artemia sp inactivation were 16 kV, 60 s, 2.5 L/min, respectively. The concentrations of total residual oxidants and ozone generated by plasma reaction increased with an increase of in voltage and reaction time, and the concentration of generated air did not increase above a certain amount.
