  • The purpose of this study was to survey the trends of waste products in schools, its gathering and disposal, identification of problems and to analyze its disposal. Moreover, this study was aimed at basic suggestions about the establishment and plans of waste environmental education. 98 public primary and secondary schools were surveyed in Seoul during the month of March and April, 1991. Information was collected from each educational association by random sampling. Questionaries were used for this survey. To understand the disposal status of school waste and its reforms, this study surveyed the amount of waste by products, their origin and analyzed the disposal by type, one number of schools and teachers involved. The dump sited and disposal methods of school waste, its problems, and the status of school waste educations were researched, and ideal disposal methods and plans for waste education were suggested. The results were as follows. 1. The School's trash was produced by followings: paper, vinyle plastics, food, woods, metals, ceramics, glass, bottles, and ash from the heating system. The biggest cause of the school's waste as shown by the survey was a lack of environmental awareness(39.8%). The second biggest was the use of a one time use of disposable paper products(27.6%). 2. Waste collection by different grade levels were proven to be important but as you move from elementary to high school, the waste collecting operation decreased, in this connection between the students and waste collection itself it was significant on the other hand the teachers were not working as significant variables. 3. Of the school that collected waste 69.5 percent of the schools separately grouped common waste and recyclable waste. 25 schools(42.4%) received improvement on their environmental awareness of trash collection through this method. 4. From the number of disposal sites in surveyed schools, it was determined that the education of the necessity for separation of waste was performed in vain and accordingly the should require a real education in the future. 5. Regarding the method of disposal of waste the survey indicated that the #1 method of disposal was partial burning and the remains carried to a dump site by others(35,7%). In elementary schools the entire waste was taken by individuals to a dump site (33.3%). In high schools partial burning and then transported by individuals #1 in our survey(50%). 6. Relative to the problem of the treatment to waste, the emission of smoke from the burning was considered to be the #1 priority in our survey (62.3%) the problem of trash collection being delayed was 52.1%(1in our survey). 7. The present situation of environmental education of waste us lacking. Under present circumstances, the practice of public announcements for improvement and waste-paper collection has been going on vigorously but lacking in education as to the preparation of compositions for students the themes of public exhibitions, the organizing of voluntary associations should be part of the education system to reinforce student's awareness of proper waste disposal. 8. The most economical alternative for disposal was recycling usable waste or combustible material through a variety of education we can therefore educate students bring this education to their homes public servants will also be able to benefit in the waste disposal process with proper education. In conclusion we should intensify the systemical organization and the education of our waste disposal for a better environment.

  • Limonene is orange flavored natural material that is mainly contained in mandarine and lemon peels. D-limonene was extracted from cold-storaged mandarine peel by using Soxhlet extractor at $120^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours with ethanol as solvent. Henry constants of d-limonene and impurity were calculated as $H_{Lim}=8.55$ and $H_{imp}=0.223$ from the result of HPLC analysis. 4-bed SMB of limonene simulation with $0.46{\times}25cm$ columns was conducted by using Aspen chromatography program. Then effective condition for purity was found by changing $m_2$ and $m_3$ values in triangle diagram. The highest purity was 98.59% at $m_2=2.57$, $m_3=9.55$. For this case, feed, desorbent, extract, and raffinate flow rates were 1 mL/min, 1.19 mL/min, 0.857 mL/min and 1.34 mL/min, respectively. Scale-up simulation was also conducted by increasing column diameter from 0.46 cm to 1.6 cm for getting the same efficiency. The increased flow rates were 12 mL/min, 14 mL/min, 10 mL/min, and 16 mL/min for feed, desorbent, extract, and raffinate. It was possible to scale-up with maintaining same limonene purity because linear isotherms of limonene and impurity were assumed.

  • Turmeric is a medicinal herb with various pharmacological activities. Curcumin, demethoxycurcumin(DMC) and bisdemethoxycurcumin(BDMC) were extracted from turmeric by dipping and ultrasonic wave method. And extraction efficiency was identified using solid phase extraction(SPE). The extracted sample were simultaneously separated and analyzed from three kinds of commercial $C_{18}$ reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography using water and acetonitrile as mobile phase with isocratic elution mode. Flow rate 1.0mL/min, injection volume $10{\mu}L$ and column oven temperature $40^{\circ}C$ at 425nm wavelength has been conducted. From the experimental results, the optimum mobile phase composition of water/acetonitrile 50/50vol% using RS tech column. It is evident that the amount of curcuminoids extracted(extraction time 4h) by 100% MeOH was higher than any aqueous MeOH composition. Finally, in 100% water extraction, the amount(mAU${\times}$mim) of curcuminoids extracted by SPE was 14.3 and 24.5 times respectively higher than ultrasonic wave and dipping method. The shown results can be applied as sources for pharmaceuticals and functional material.

  • All coal ash, generated from coal-fired power plants, is entirely dumped onto a landfill site. As coal ash contains 80% fly ash, a clean floating process was developed in this study to recover useful components from coal ash and to use them as high value-added industrial materials. When the unburned carbon (UC) was recovered from the fly ash, soybean oil, an eco-friendly vegetable oil, was used as collector instead of a non-ionic kerosene collector to prevent the occurrence of odor from the kerosene. After the UC was separated by flotation, particulate ceramic microsphere (CM) was recovered, without generating acidic wastewater, through hydro-cyclone instead of sulfuric acid solution in order to separate ceramic microsphere (CM) and cleaned ash (CA) from the residue. By utilizing soybean oil as a collector, the recovery rate of UC turned high at 85.8% due to the increased adsorption of UC, the high viscosity of soybean oil, and the increase in floating properties caused by the linoleic acid contained in soybean oil. All of the combustible components contained in the recovered UC were carbon components, with the carbon content registering high when soybean oil was used. The recovered UC had many pores with a rough surface; thus, it could be easily ground and then used as an industrial material for its fine particles. The CM and CA recovered by the clean separation process using hydro-cyclone had a spherical shape, and the particles were clearly separated without clumping together. The average diameter (D50) of the particles was 5 ㎛, so it was possible to realize the atomization of CM through a process change.

  • The influences of fluorescence, scattering, and flocculation in turbid material by light scattering of N-propyl-N,N-dimethylethanolamine, fluorescence agent and absorption agent were interpreted for the scattered fluorescence intensity and wavelength. They have been studied the molecular properties by the spectroscopy of laser induced fluorescence (LIF) and flocculation. The effects of optical properties in scattering media have been found by the optical parameters(${\mu}_s$, ${\mu}_a$, ${\mu}_t$). Flocculation is an important step in many solid-liquid separation processes and is widely used. When two particles approach each other, interactions of several colloid particles can come into play which may have major effect on the flocculation and LIF process. The values of scattering coefficient ${\mu}_s$ are large by means of the increasing scattering of scatterer, The values have been found that the slope decays exponentially as a function of concentration from laser source to detector by our experimental result. It may also aid in designing the best model for oil chemistry, bio-pharmaceutical, laser medicine and application of medical engineering on LIF and coagulation in particle transport mode.

  • The effect of mixing ratio of materials and their retort processing conditions on the physical properties and preference of oyster porridge were investigated. Rice gave adequate viscosity (about 800 cp) to the porridge as it was used 10~12% level and half of it was ground. Potato starch, waxy corn starch, and Perfectamyl AC showed small variation in viscosity unrelated to the temperature, that was a good condition for high quality porridge. Especially, waxy corn starch had a good property for retort porridge because its viscosity was maintained high during the processing and decreased to preferable one after processing. Purity CSC, modified starch gave gum-like texture and didn't cause water-separation much after freezing and thawing treatment of the porridge. Therefore, it was good for enhancing the physical property of the porridge as a co-additive of waxy corn starch when it was used at quarter level of waxy corn starch. Xanthan gum increased dispersibility of materials and it was useful for stabilizing physical quality of the porridge without affecting preference when it was used below 0.2% concentration. As a result, the optimal material-mixing ratio was determined as rice 10% (50% of it was ground), waxy corn starch 1.5%, Purity CSC 0.5%, xmthan gum 0.2%, salt 0.3%, and water 87.5%. Oyster's porridge, retort processed with this recipe, showed stable physical property after 6 month storage at room temperature.

  • In this study, observations of oil leakage samples taken from the actual site were performed to identify the causes of the oil leakage phenomenon. As a result, the separation of the material components was determined as the main cause of the oil leakage phenomenon based on the changes in the surface conditions, and verification of this was conducted. The evaluation results confirmed that the filler component of the asphalt mastic subsided with the lapse of the settling time, and that the difference ratio of the filler contents of the upper and lower specimens was up to 23.8% after day 28. Based on these results, a hypothesis on the oil leakage mechanism of asphalt mastic was established, and then modeling of the entire process of oil leakage was performed.

  • The celadon jar with inscription of 'the Fourth Sunhwa Year' is an important chronology that shows the conditions of production of the early celadon due to the inscription on the bottom including its purpose, application, and the producer. This celadon jar has been restored several times in the past. However, concerns over the structural stability, such as the separation and level differences in the joined cracks, have risen because of the aging of the repair materials, which were subjected to various environmental changes over a long time. By examining the conditions of preservation, the major damage was identified as the '入' shaped crack on the front, the 'V' shaped restored part and the crack on its left side, and the 'J' shaped crack on the back side. In the past, the cracks were found to be joined using a refined lacquer containing camphor, drying oil, rosin, etc. mixed with soil powder. The joint line was repainted with the refined lacquer and covered with gold powder. The missing parts were restored with gypsum and colored with acrylic color. After that, the repair materials were aged and emergency treatment was performed at the National Museum of Korea in 1981. At that time, Cemedine C or Cemedine C mixed with microballoons was used for reinforcing the cracks. Conservation treatment focused on removing the past repair materials and reinforcing the physically fragile parts by joining and restoring them based on the examination of the preservation condition. in addition, the area around the restored part was colored for future exhibition.

  • The practical applications of ordinary high-fluidity concrete have been limited due to several drawbacks, such as high hydration heat, high amount of shrinkage, and non-economic strength development. On the other hand, due to its advantages, such as improvement of construction quality, reduction of construction cost and period, the development of high-fluidity concrete is a pressing need. This study examined the properties of high-fluidity concrete, which can be manufactured on the low binders using a viscosity agent to prevent the segregation of materials. The optimal viscosity agent was selected by an evaluation of the mechanical properties of high-fluidity concrete among six viscosity agents. The acrylic type and urethane type viscosity agents showed the best performance within the range where no material separation occurred. The mechanical properties were evaluated to examine the optimal amount of AC and UT viscosity agent added by mixing two viscosity agents according to the adding ratio and blending them together with high performance water reducing agent. When the ratio of the AC : UT viscosity agents was 5:5, it was most suited for high-fluidity concrete with low binders by increasing the workability and effect of the reducing viscosity.
