In order to obtain high dye uptake initially, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) filaments were dyed with C.I.Disperse Orange 3 and Red 1 in mixed solvents of tetrachloroethylene acidic solvent, ethyl alcohol and tetrachloroethylene basic solvent, DMF. The dyeing behavior in the mixed solvent of tetrachloroethylene and basic solvent, DMF, the initial uptake of disperse dyes increased rapidly. The shrinkage of PET increased when the solubility parameter values of PET fiber and mixed solvent approached graduately.

In this study, four kinds of vapor-permeable waterproofed fabrics were selected and their properties and the changes of properties were investigated after laundering, petroleum drycleaning or tetrachloroethylene drycleaning (each 1, 5, 10 times). The results were as follows: 1) In the water resistance, only Gore Tex satisfied its minimum property requirements, $1.0kg/cm^2$ It decreased after laddering and drycleaning. Hipora-1000, Hipora-2000, Aitac decreased slightly by petroleum drycleaning and Gore Tex decreased slightly by all three methods. 2) In the moisture vapor transmission, three except Hipora-2000 satisfied its minimum property requirement, $4000g/m^2{\cdot}24hr$.24hr. After laundering and drycleaning, it increased regardless of cleaning methods. 3) In the water repellency, Hipora-lOOG, Hipora-2000 were not almost decreased after laundering and drycleaning. Aitac decreased slightly by petrolem drycleaning and Gore Tex decreased slightly by laundering and petroleum drycleaning. 4) Air permeability of Aitac increased with increasing of cleaning times regardless of cleaning methods. 5) In the bond strength, only Gore Tex dissatisfied its minimum property requirements, 250g/cm. Regardless of cleaning method, bond strength decreased with increasing of cleaning times. 6) Color difference was large in case of Hipora-1000 by laundering, Hipora-2000 by laundering and tetrachloroethylene drycleaning Aitac by tetrachloroethylene drycleaning, Gore Tex by laundering. To diminish property change of vaper-permeable waterproofed fabric, petroleum drycleaning is more effective than laundering and tetrachloroethylene drycleaning.

Four drugs, bithionol, hexachlorophee, hexachloroethane and tetrachloroethylene, were tested on the in vitro effects of vermicidal and laying capacity inhibitory action to the Eurytrema Pancreaticum of Korean cattle, and the results obtained were as follows : 1) Of the four drugs, bithionol was most effective at both high and low concentrations. 2) The effects of hexachlorophene, hexachloroethane and tetrachloroethylene were less effective than that of bithionol, and the laying activity, at low concentration, was observed to increase at the early stage and decrease gradually thereafter. 3) Tetrachloroethylene was least effective of the four drugs.

Polychlorinated hydrocarbons are continuously released into the environment from various industrial processes. Trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (perchloroethylene, PCE) are of primary concern because of their large-scale production, wide industrial application, poor biodegradability, and tendency to circulate in the air and water. The common routes of human exposure to these compounds include inhalation, ingestion, and dermal adsorption. Additionally, they have been detected in various plant foods. Prolonged exposure to these contaminants is associated with certain risks. They are carcinogenic and have other toxic effects, including gastrointestinal, developmental, neurological, and hematological toxicity. To analyze these contaminants, they are generally extracted from various matrices, followed by instrumental analysis. Gas chromatography, often in combination with different detectors, is the most widely used analytical method. This review covers the toxicity, analytical methods, occurrence in foods, and risk assessment of these contaminants.

An anaerobic PCE(tetrachloroethylene) dechlorinating bacterial culture from a landfill soil was enriched and characterized. The enrichment culture could dechlorinate 60$\mu$mol/$m\ell$ of PCE during a month of incubation and cis-DCE(cis-dichloroethylene) was observed as a main product of PCE dechlorination. Microbial analysis of the dechlorinating enrichment culture by rising PCR-DGGE (Polymerase chain reaction-Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) method showed that at least three microorganisms were related to the anaerobic PCE dechlorination.

Fifteen volatile organic pollutants were spiked in blank water at the concentration of $20{\mu}g/L$ and analyzed with Purge and Trap and GC/MS. As a result, the overall mean recovery of 100% was obtained with a mean relative standard deviation of 3.6%. The method detection limits were in the range of $1.9{\sim}3.3{\mu}g/L$. In the wastewater analysis of Banwol dyeing comlex, 15 organic compounds were identified and three of these were quantified. Among the compounds identified, only trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene are regulated in wastewater by the Korea Ministry of Environment. But, the concentration of these two compounds were below the government allowance level.

PCE(tetrachloroethylene) 분해능을 보유한 그람 양성, 내생포자 형성의 혐기성균이 일본 기후현의 한 전자제품공장으로부터 분리되었다. 이 균은 생화학적 특성 및 16S rRNA 분석결과에 의하여 C. bifermentans인 것을 거쳐 cDCE(cis-1,2-dichloroethylene)로 전환되었다. 전자공여체로서 효모엑기스는 PCE 분해에 있어 가장 효과적이었으며 효모엑기스를 공급한 조건에서의 PCE 탈염소화 속도는 0.41 $\mu$mol/h.mg protein 이었다. 한편 본 균주는 PCE 뿐만 아니라 각종 유기염소화합물에 대해서도 분해능을 보유하고 있는 신종의 PCE 분해균으로서 각종 유기염소화합물에 오염된 지하수 및 토양에서의 In situ bioremediation 적용에 있어 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

The tetrachloroethylene (PCE) dehalogenase of Clostridium bifermentans DPH-1 (a halorespiring organism) was purified, cloned, and sequenced. This enzyme is a homodimer with a molecular mass of ca. 70 kDa and exhibits dehalogenation of dichloroethylene isomers along with PCE and trichloroethylene (TCE). Broad range of substrate specificity for chlorinated aliphatic compounds (PCE, TCE, cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethylene, 1,2-dichloropropene, and 1,1,2-trichloroethane) for this enzyme was also observed. A mixture of propyl iodide and titanium citrate caused a light-reversible inhibition of enzymatic activity suggesting the involvement of a corrinoid cofactor. A partial sequence (81 bp) of the encoding gene for PCE dehalogenase was amplified and sequenced with degenerateprimers designed from the N-terminal sequence (27 amino acid residues). Southern analysis of C. bifermentans genomic DNA using the polymerase chain reaction product as a probe revealed restriction fragment bands. A 5.0 kb ClaI fragment, harboring the relevant gene (designated pceC) was cloned (pDEHAL5) and the complete nucleotide sequence of pceC was determined. The gene showed homology mainly with microbial membrane proteins and no homology with any known dehalogenase, suggesting a distinct PCE dehalogenase. So, C. bifermentans could play some important role in the initial breakdown of PCE and other chlorinated aliphatic compounds in sites contaminated with mixtures of halogenated substances.

Gas phase photocatalytic oxidation of tetrachloroethylene (PCE) under 370 nm ultra-violet irradiation was investigated with TiO$_2$ catalyst. During the photocatalytic oxidation of PCE vapor several kinds of intermediate were produced, and the reaction pathways were proposed on the basis of the production sequency of the intermediates. The intermediates in the pathways of PCE oxidation were hexachloroethane, pentachlotoethane, 1, 1, 2-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachl-oride, dichloroacetylchloride, chloroform, 1,1-dichloroethane, phosgene, CO, $CO_2$, HCl, Cl$_2$.

An experimental study was conducted to test the feasibility of degradative solidification/stabilization (DS/S) process in treating tetrachloroethylene (PCE) in solid phase systems. The Fe(II)-based ds/s process successfully treated PCE in a soil at the reaction rates that would not allow significant release of the contaminant in the environment. A leach model was also developed that could describe the relative importance of leaching and degradation in ds/s. The first and second Damkohler numbers and dimensionless time were important parameters that determined leaching precesses in wastes treated by ds/s.
