The purpose of this study was carried out to estimate removal possibility of IBMP and IPMP causing odor in raw water. As a result of Freundlich isotherm. IBMP was superior to IPMP in adsorptive capacity. Adsorptive capacities of activated carbon were found to be in order of Lignite, Coconut shell, and Charcoal. These were well fitted with Freundlich isotherm. According to adsorption breakthrough tests for Lignite GAC, breakthrough time of IPMP and IBMP were 5.7hr and 5.5hr, respectively. Because adsorptive capacities of target material were very different with pore size distribution, it seemed that Lignite and Coconut shell based activated carbons were recommended in order to remove door compounds.

Even if odorous compounds remained very low concentration in water, it caused strong odor. Because Geosmin and most of odorous compound had very vaporization, those were difficult to analyze with GC/MSD and Purge & Trap. So, we needed pre-treatment method for decreasing amounts of extracting solvents, improving recovery efficiencies and increasing analytical efficiencies. This study developed efficient technology for analyzing odorous compounds, using various adsorbents and extracting solvents. The optimum adsorbent was XAD resins. Especially, XAD-2, XAD-7 and XAD-2010 were superior, but XAD-2 of these and MTBE was the optimum extraction solvent. Other extraction solvent's efficiency was in order of MTBE>Dichloromethane>n-Hexane>Diethylether. The optimum NaCl dosage for increasing efficiency was 5g in liquid-liquid extraction method. The shaking time(0∼24hr) had no concern with adsorption efficiency. The optimum adsorbent was XAD-2 resin and extraction solvent was MTBE. Dosing NaCl, adsorption efficiency was increased in liquid-liquid extraction method, but NaCl has no effect on liquid-solid extraction method. In this experimental results, this method will apply to not only Geosmin but other well-known odorous compounds (2-MIB, IBMP, IPMP, TCA) and algae toxins (Mycrocystin, Anatoxin etc)

We analyzed the result of sensory evaluation for the 10 items of Korean Space Foods performed by Korean astronaut in ISS. Although there were low score items because of the individual preference difference, Most items received the high score. Also, we can confirm the possibility of the internationalization of the Korean Space Foods because international astronauts gave the high valuation. we should develop the various space foods and food package which are easy to use in space for the human exploration in the future.
