본 연구에서는 국제적으로 사용하고 있는 농업용수 재이용 수질기준을 검토하고 우리나라 하수처리 방류수의 재이용 가능성에 대하여 고찰하였으며, 재이용수로이용하기 위해 필요한 처리대안에 실험 ${\cdot}$ 연구한 결과이다. Biofilter 유출수를 17, 25, 40W의 3가지 램프로 UV소독한 결과 40W 램프에서는 모든 경우에 100%소독되었으며, 25 W와 17 W에서는 전반적으로 97%이상 소독효율을 나타내었으며, 적절하게 설계된 UV소독을 거친 하수처리장 유출수는 USEPA와 WHO의 가장 엄격한 수질기준을 충분히 만족시켜서 보건 ${\cdot}$ 위생적인 문제를 일으키지 않을 것으로 판단된다. 간헐 분사방식의 완속모래여과 처리후 미생물의 처리효율은 TC, FC, E. coli 모두 평균 95% 이상 높은 처리 효율을 나타내었으며, 완속모래여과 후의 평균 농도는 각각 330, 207, 154 MPN/100 mL이었고 탁도와 SS는 모두 약 50%의 처리효율을 나타내었는데, 이는 WHO의 수질기준을 충분히 만족시켰으며, USEPA의 수질기준인 200FC/100mL의 경우에도 적절한 관리가 이루어 질 경우 만족시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 탁도는 평균 0.8NTU로써 먹는물 수질기준인 INTU수준이었고, SS의 경우에도 50% 이상의 처리효율을 나타내어 USEPA의 가장 엄격한 수질기준을 충분히 만족하였으며, 영양물질의 제거에도 기여를 하기 때문에 수계의 오염부하를 줄이는 측면에서도 유리할 것으로 생각된다. 연못시스템을 거치면서 TC, FC, E. coli 모두 85%정도 제거되어 평균미생물농도가 1,000MPN/100 m1 이하이었다. 우리나라의 수질기준으로 WHO 수질기준이 논농사에 적용될 경우 소독이나 여과처리 없이도 재이용할 수 있을 것이라 판단되나, USEPA의 수질기준이 적용될 경우에는 연못시스템만으로도 부족하여 추가적인 처리가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 과거 US EPA의 위험을 완전히 배제한 수질기준을 여러 국가에서 받아들여 사용하고 있으나, WHO에서는 이수질기준이 경제 ${\cdot}$ 사회적으로 불합리한 기준이라 판단하고 보다 완화된 수질기준을 제시하였다. 우리나라에서도 수질기준을 결정할 때 논농사라는 특수한 실정에 맞는 수질 기준을 정해 경제적이고 실용적인 처리방법을 선정하는 것이 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 벼의 경우는 껍질과 추가적인 처리 후 섭취하는 작물이기 때문에 엄격한 수질기준이 필요하지 않을 수 있으나, 장기간 담수상태를 유지함으로써 농민을 포함한 공중보건에 위해성을 줄 가능성이 크므로 세균성미생물 등에 대한 신중한 결정이 필요하다.

The water purification systems have been hardly used for agricultural purpose due to their complicated compositions and high costs for farmers, while only simple filtrations have been applied to irrigation systems in order to prevent the system from clogging problems. This study therefore developed a clean water supplying system, the Filter-Disinfection-Adsorption (FDA) system, especially for greenhouse cultivation of where low quality of water is available. This system has also been produced for providing convenience water to farmers in the areas of no water supply service systems for the purpose of washing their bodies or agricultural machineries after farm work. The FDA system consists of three stages of purification processes with an integral module, including disk and teflon filtrations and Ultraviolet (UV) sterilization processes. Indoor experiments were undertaken with a trial product of the FDA system to test its performance. The operation test of the process was performed as well as the condition check of each item including UV module, filters, control panel, pump, valves, etc. The results shows good performance of each test with no critical problems. The initial and maintenance costs were also analysed with other purification systems. From the comparisons, the FDA system found to be very economical and easy to use.

Wastewater reuse are exposed public health risk by pathogens. Therefore, this study was examined for microbial risk assessment after irrigation as treated wastewater in paddy rice plots. Five treatments were used: biofilter effluent, UV disinfected water, pond treatment, wetland treatment and conventional irrigation water. Risk assessment was calculated based on the beta-Poisson model by concentration of E. coli from 2003 to 2005. Monte-Carlo simulation (n=10,000) was used to estimate the risk characterization of uncertainty. The risk range was from $10^{-5}$ to $10^{-8}$ except biofilter effluent was $10^{-4}$ in June. The USEPA(1992) has recommended that risk of < $10^{-4}$ is acceptable level of safety for potable waters. In 2005, risk value was lower than 2003, 2004 because of the first irrigation for plowing water is lower E. coli concentration used tap water. It is shown that the first irrigation water quality was important for wastewater irrigation in paddy. UV disinfection and natural treatment used pond and wetland were thought to be an effective for wastewater reuse.

담배모자이크 바이러스에 대한 항바이러스 활성을 검사하기 위해 다양한 화학제를 처리한 결과, 1NHCl과 0.1-1N NaOH에 바이러스와 외피에 보호된 RNA가 완전하고 신속하게 분해되었다. TMV를 0.1N HCl에 처리하였을 때 바이러스의 외피단백질은 산의 가수분해에 의해 부분 분해되었으나, 0.01N HCl 혹은 0.01N NaOH에 처리했을 때는 분해되지 않았다. 위의 결과에서 적절한 산이나 알칼리에 처리하는 것은 바이러스를 제거하는데 효과적인 가치가 있음이 판명되었다. 50% isopropanol과 UV처리는 바이러스와 외피화된 RNA에 어떤 효과도 미치지 않았다. 농장의 농기구와 실험실 기구를 바이러스의 오염으로부터 방지하기 위해서는 적절한 화학제의 적용이 필요하다.

The air sterilization systems are investigated experimentally in this paper. The goal is to reduce bacteria, mold and viruses in office air by using a UV sterilizer installed inside a partition panel and wall-mounted unit. These systems allow occupants to turn the system on/off and to control the incoming air speed and direction. The partition air sterilization system conditions and sterilizes the air, and then delivers the clean air into the personal task area through the partition panels, which are connected to the pressurized under-floor plenum. Room air exits through the return grills mounted on the ceiling. The wall-mounted air sterilization system sterilizes the air, and then delivers the clean air to the personal task area from the wall. In this study a full-size experimental environment is established to investigate the immunization performance of these air sterilization systems. A typical office space scale is used in this study in order to find an optimal system to achieve a sterilized healthy micro-environment. Multiple system parameters, including volume flow rate and velocity of supplied air, were regulated during the experiments. The more air contact these air sterilization systems had, the better disinfection performance. Over 90% of eradication ratios were obtained by these two air sterilization systems. The results indicate that these systems can efficiently disinfect office air contamination.

The cells of Campylobacter jejuni treated with physical or chemical disinfection agents were comparatively examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopies for their morphological features and internal ultrastructures. The normal cells of C. jejuni, showed typical spiral rod shapes. The ribosomes, nucleoids, and other cellular constituents were observed to be distributed evenly throughout the cytoplasm. The cells treated with heat or UV-light were changed to spherical or irregular shapes and their cell envelopes were destroyed to form ghost cells by liberating their cytoplasmic components. The cells treated with chlorine or monochloramine were also changed into irregular round shapes. The chlorinated cells showed very rough surface structures with many blob-like protrusions, while the surface of the monochloramine-treated cells appeared to be relatively smooth.

Chlorination of wastewater is recently practiced in Korea. While many researchers have studied the kinetics of aqueous chlorine(HOCl) with nitrogeneous compounds and other organic/inorganic contaminants in drinking water, the researches of wastewater chlorination are relatively few. The purpose of this study was to investigate the chlorine decay kinetics and parameters on wastewater chlorination. Chlorine decay rate increased with increasing initial chlorine concentration. The parameters affecting chlorine decay rate were different in each wastewater treatment plant. One of the most important parameters affecting chlorine decay was initial chlorine concentration, and other parameters such as $NH_3-N$, total coliform, $UV_{254}$ and Fe were also affected. The decay ratio of chlorine was decreased with increasing initial chlorine concentration, and the disinfection efficiency showed good correlation with the decay ratio.

As the number of reported COVID-19 cases rises around the world, regions affected by the virus are taking serious measures to contain its spread. Face shields are one of the highest-need personal protective equipment (PPE) during COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond traditional face masks, as known cases of the coronavirus soar, currently there is a significant shortage of face shields around the world. In response, the protective face shields were designed and fabricated with open-source 3D modelling software and 3D printing technology, respectively. Our face shield consisted of two parts only; a reusable 3D printed headband and a visor made of transparent plastic sheet, as barrier. The resulting 3D printed face shields are affordable, lightweight, one-size-fits-most and ready-to-wear with minimal assemblies, and go on easily over glass, goggle and face mask. To ensure being donated to the healthcare professionals without risk infected by any pathogens, the 3D printed face shields were successfully be disinfected with ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI dosage of 1000 mJ/cm²) and 70% alcohol. For routine disinfection a UVGI chamber was designed and optimized to provide uniform UV-C illumination with an appreciated fluence for complete decontamination. More than 1,000 face shields were produced already and donated to the special hospitals for COVID-19 patients, quarantines, government and medical agencies in Ethiopia as well as in East-African countries. With certainty, our intention goes beyond the hospitals and other first responders, but not limited for all those who have to stay in the service or be in contact with many other people in the time of COVID-19 pandemic.
