One of the most widely used static mixers is Sulzer type mixer. However the structure of the element is so complicated that the mixing efficiency is better than others, whereas the pressure drop is larger than the others. Therefore new elements are necessary to reduce the pressure drop and to minimize the decrease of the mixing efficiency compared with the Sulzer ones. The objectives of this study are to develop new static mixer and to perform the experimental investigation in order to evaluate the performance of the new one, and to investigate the applicability of the one in an inline coagulant mixing system for water treatment, The pressure drops of the new static mixer elements were about 4-12% lower than that of the Sulzer SMX one, and the mixing efficiency of the Sulzer SMX one was about 2-5% higher than that of the new ones. The inline coagulant mixing system with a new static mixer element performed significantly better than the traditional mechanical mixing system for turbidity removal.

In this study, a hydrogenated lecithin-containing liposome was prepared using a sonicator and microfluidizer at high shear. The surface tension, particle size, turbidity, and transition temperature ($T_c$) of the liposome were investigated and compared with the commercially available standard surfactant Tween-60. The cytotoxicities were characterized using the MTT method. The surface tension of hydrogenated lecithin was found to be higher than that of Tween-60. The particle size prepared at above $T_c$ was smaller than that prepared below $T_c$. The results of the cytotoxicity experiment indicated that Lecinol 10 exhibits the highest I$C_{50}$ value, which shows its high safety in this study.

Red ginseng sikhye is one of Korean unique beverages with the addition of effective ingredients of ginseng. Considering economical and mechanical efficiency and quality of sikhye, the optimum conditions for saccharification is to saccharify at 90 degree celsius for 3 hours in the composition of 4% of malt, 20% of steamed rice, and 6% of red ginseng power. The red ginseng sikhye has high soluble solid content over 33% compared with conventional commercial sikhye. On the other hand, ginseng sikhye, which shows low pH, has more or less higher acidity than conventional commercial one. Especially the turbidity of the red ginseng sikhye is much higher than that of commercial sikhye, due to as high amount of rice as 20% compared with 3% in the commercial one. The use of high quantity of rice affected the level of turbidity in red ginseng sikhye. In this study, we wanted to establish optimum conditions for saccharification in manufacturing red ginseng sikhye which contains effective herbal medicinal ingredients maintaining the original taste of traditional sikhye.

Effects of compound factors (temperature , salinity and turbidity 0 on Tapes philippinarum are as follows : 1. At 3 and 6 hours , critical temperature of 0.9-1.05 mm size is 38$^{\circ}C$ and 7.5-8.5mm, 23-25 mm exist between 35$^{\circ}C$ and 41$^{\circ}C$. 2. The main limiting factor of three combined factors is temperature. The effect on the survival of Tapes philippinarum is as follows : Temperature > salinity > turbidity. 3. In the worst condition, treatment time is also an important factor. Mortality is higher at 6 hour treatment than 3 hour. 4. We observed 39$^{\circ}C$ of water temperature at Tapes bed of Inchon in July 1965. Compared with experimental results, we are able to suppose that the mortality will be occurred at high degrees in the natural state. 5. As the size of the individual is increased , the survival rate is increased as well.

Poly(DADM) was synthesized for the drinking water treatment. Poly(DADM) was produced by the free radical polymerization of diallyldimethylammonium chloride(DADM) monomer and its properties were characterized. The effects of monomer concentration, initiator concentration and reaction time on synthesis of poly(DADM) were investigated. Poly(DADM) flocculant was applied to Nak-dong river water to examine its efficiency in reducing turbidity. The synthesized poly(DADM) was effective as flocculant for drinking water treatment. The addition of 1 mg/L of poly(DADM) flocculant caused the reduction of 50% PAC(polyaluminium chloride).

This study was conducted to investigate of water qualities in the upper and middle reaches of the Han River. For this purpose, water was sampled at Kwangjin and 1st Han-River Bridges of the Han River in Seoul and analysed from August, 1988 to September, 1989. The results are summarized as follows : 1. Water quality at 1st Han-River Bridge was more polluted than that at Kwangjin Bridge. 2. Except biological oxygen demand (BOD), turbidity, suspended solid (SS), dissolved oxygen (DO), DO saturation (DOS), ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3-N$), nitrite nitrogen ($NO_2-N$) and chloride ion ($Cl^-$) at Kwangjin and 1st Han-River Bridges were lower as compared with the previous data before redevelopment of the Han River. 3. SS, DO and pH at Kwangjin and 1st Han-River Bridges could be classified to the 1st grade in environmental water quality standard. DOS at Kwangjin Bridge was over 100% and that at 1st Han-River Bridge was below 100% in the Han River. BOD at Kwangjin Bridge could be classified to End grade and that at 1st Han-River Bridge to 3rd grade in environmental water quality standard. 4. The higher the level of water was, the lower the levels of turbidity and SS, and $NH_3-N$ was decreased with increasing water level at 1st Han-River Bridge. DO was decreased as water temperature went up but DOS was increased with DO. BOD was positively correlated with nitrite-nitrogens. 5. Turbidity and SS at the both sites and Chloride ion ($Cl^-$) at Kwangjin Bridge were increased in July and August. And DO at the both sites and $NH_3-N$ at 1st Han-River Bridge were decreased in at July and August.

Objectives: We analyzed water in waterscape facilities to investigate contamination levels of water-borne pathogens and four test items (pH, turbidity, residual chlorine, and Escherichia coli) at facilities including play fountains, splash parks, and artificial streams from June to October in Suwon City and in the whole of Gyeonggi-do. Methods: A total of 62 waterscape facility samples were collected from 36 sites and tested for pathogenic Escherichia coli and water-borne viruses that cause hand-foot-and-mouth disease, eye disease, and acute enteritis. Results: None of the water-borne pathogens were detected in waterscape facility samples collected from across Gyeonggi-do that were for pre-inspection for facility management. However, the results of samples from Suwon collected in hot weather and during the school vacation period showed five total inconsistencies in turbidity (four cases) and Escherichia coli (one case). Three out of the four inconsistent samples in turbidity were from the same facility which operated a sand filtration system due to its locational factors close to mountains. Conclusion: We suggest that the waterscape facilities in Gyeonggi-do are managed properly in the respect of microbial contamination and water quality.

To maintain water quality after water treatment, monitoring whether the quality of treated tap water quality changes is essential. However, current investigations are insufficient to prevent secondary contamination in drinking water supply systems. This study investigated Gyeonggi's e apartment where a red water problem occurred and monitored the water quality and corrosiveness of the overall water supply system to the apartment from June 2021 to April 2022. In a comparison of drinking water quality after water treatment and the influent of the reservoir, turbidity and heavy metal concentrations were increased and residual chlorine was decreased due to increases in temperature. Correlation analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) indicated that a low level of residual chlorine may cause the abscission of Mn²⁺ and Fe²⁺ through microorganism activation, which also causes a high level of turbidity. The corrosion index (LI) in the influent of the reservoir tank was increased due to Ca²⁺ and temperature. These results indicate that the corrosiveness of drinking water and the deterioration of drinking water quality were mainly increased between the drinking water treatment plant and the reservoir tank's influent. The findings provide clear evidence that it is essential to manage water supply systems and reservoir tanks to prevent the secondary contamination of drinking water.
