The study investigated the effects of protein concentration, EGTA and strength of hydrostatic pressure on pH, viscosity and turbidity for ultra filtrated skim milk retentates. The results showed that hydrostatic pressure treatments up to 600 MPa did not affect the viscosity of skim milk, while the turbidity of skim milk increased at higher than 200 MPa. Addition of EGTA caused reduction in turbidity of skim milk, two times (2SR) and three times (3SR) concentrated skim milk retentates. Viscosity for 2SR and 3SR increased proportionally to the amount of EGTA, but viscosity of skim milk was not influenced by EGTA. High pressure treatment also did not cause any difference in viscosity and turbidity of skim milk. However, this treatment decreased viscosity and turbidity for 2SR and 3SR. In particular, 200 MPa treatment showed to induce a higher decrease in turbidity compared with 400 MPa.

Dredging and reclaiming on coast, harbor construction etc. of when construct, the interest about efficiency and accuracy of sounding by measurement condition very rise. However, there are only a few studies on the accuracy improvement concerning water depth sounding condition. In this study, among the precision decline main causes of sounding, 1 suggested the characteristics of sounding data acquired by echo sounder with increasing of turbidity and the critical turbidity range under a given transducer frequency. For this, I acquired sounding data by inputting turbidity inducer artificially in artificial water tank. And then achieved regression analysis. Conclusion are as following Sounding Capabilities can be divided into three ranges according to the turbidity . normal range, critical range and the range where data can not be obtained by an echo sounder. When the turbidity exceeds $217\~259$ NTU which was considered as critical range, depth sounding was impossible.

This study inquired into changes of turbidity of a river depending on the rainfall characteristics of each month through investigating the water quantity and turbidity of Jawoonchun drainage basin in the upper reaches of Soyangho (lake) for the year of 2005. It could be seen from the study that high turbidity occurred during the period from May to August due to rainfall intensity and rainfall duration. On the other hand, it could be confirmed that turbidity was constantly low after September because of early cleansing effect of rainfall. Next, the influence of controlling factors of turbidity was looked into. For May and June, it was 89% rainfall intensity among the controlling factors, for July and August, it was 67% rainfall intensity and 32% rainfall duration that was confirmed to have influence over the occurrence of turbidity. In addition, regression analysis was carried out about the controlling factors that had influence over the occurrence of turbidity and regression equation was suggested.

It was evaluated that the effect of turbidity removal by Pore Controllable Fiber Filter(PCF) installed in NS(Naksang) small water treatmant plant(system) using under flow water as raw water in the study. The results of the study are as the followings. Firstly, the removal efficiency of turbidity by PCF without coagulation(in operation mode not using coagulants) was mostly below 20 percent. On the other hand, when operation using proper coagulants, that of turbidity was mostly over 80 percent. Secondly, slow sand filtration after PCF, total turbidity removal efficiency of final treated water was 84.3 percent, and the contribution by PCF was 57.1 percent and that of slow sand filtration was 27.7 percent. Therefore the introduction of PCF as pre-treatment process would be helpful to reduce the loading of high turbidity of slow sand filtration. Thirdly, the results of particle counter measurements showed that when operated PCF with coagulants, fine flocs captured or adsorbed at the pore of PCF were flow out into the effluents from 120 minutes after backwashing because of the increase of headloss of PCF. Therefore the decision of backwashing time should made consideration into the outflow of fine flocs from PCF. Fourth, coagulant dosages on PCF at the same turbidity was largely variable because of the effect of the raw water characteristics and the turbidity increase velocity at rainy days, therefore flexible coagulant dosages should be considered rather than fixed coagulant dosage by the influent jar-test result.

Turbidity currents, often develop after heavy storm events, deliver various non-point pollutants and tend to lead eutrophication, depressed dissolved oxygen, and sedimentation in reservoirs. Field observations were performed to investigate the flow regimes of turbidity currents and their impact on reservoir water quality in Daecheong Reservoir. A 2D laterally-averaged hydrodynamic and water quality model was applied to simulate the temporal and spatial distributions of turbidity in the reservoir, and evaluated by comparing with the field data.

Due to the Typhoon MAEMI on Sep. of 12 in 2003, the turbidity value of DOAM Dam was recorded more than 300NTU until now. The natural zeolite located in the east coast of Korean peninsula was applied to reduce turbidity with cation exchange process. The result of this technique, the value of turbidity was reduced less than 1NTU. Also the value of pH showed stable state compare to before and after.

Daily monitoring was conducted to elucidate the changes in turbidity and distribution of particles in the turbid water of a river-type reservoir (Paltang Reservoir) from 1999 to 2001. Water turbidity and the particle distribution of turbid water were principally affected by meteorological factors particularly rainfall patterns and hydrological factors such as inflow and outflow. The mean concentration of turbidity was constant each year, with the concentration of less than 10 NTU accounting for 85%. Seasonal characteristics were remarkable, with winter and spring having < 5 NTU, autumn 5 ${\sim}$ 10 NTU, and summer > 20 NTU. Unlike hydrological changes, maximum turbidity was observed from late July to early August and continuously increased from 1999 to 2001. In particular, the maximum turbidity of reservoirs remarkably increased toward the lower part of reservoir in 2001. Discharge and turbidity increased or decreased slowly in 1999; in contrast, turbidity rapidly increased in the early rainfall period of 2000 and 2001 but later decreased as discharge increased. In the particles of turbid water, clay ingredients were more densely distributed and more dominant in all stations. Of the total particles in turbid water, clay constituted 63.9${\sim}$66.6% and silt 33.4${\sim}$36.1% to account for a combined total of 98.9 ${\sim}$ 100%. Sand made up less than 1.1%. The turbidity of river-type reservoir was also found to be mainly affected by the biomass of plankton in a non-rainfall period. During a rainfall period, however, the quantity and relative ratio of inorganic particles depending on the soil components affected turbidity.

This research investigated the cross-modal correspondence between the turbidity and taste of beverages. For an empirical study, we employed two types of achromatic beverages: rice wine and a soft drink. The turbidity of each drink varied between 0.0625~32 g/L, and 0.0078~4 g/L, respectively, and the stimuli were prepared in ten levels according to cognitive turbidity. In the study, participants (N=35) rated each drink stimulus using a 3-point Likert scale with regard to five basic tastes: sweet, salty, bitter, sour, and preferred. In addition, six specific tastes were included that deliberately describe rice wine and the soft drink. Three were yeasty, alcoholic, and astringent for the rice wine, and the other three were creamy, bubbly, and syrupy for the soft drink. Based on participants' assessments, the turbidity of rice wine is highly positively correlated with all five basic tastes. In contrast, the turbidity of the soft drink was positively correlated with sour only. Concerning preference, the most preferred turbidity of rice wine was 4.6~20 g/L, which is close to the turbidity of existing products on the market. Furthermore, except for astringent and syrupy, all tastes were influenced by the turbidity, which implies the potential of turbidity as a new visual parameter to communicate the taste experience of beverages.

Changes of turbidity and suspended solid concentration of inflow tend to be very similar in Andong and Imha dam, and show significant effect on the amount of rainfall. Concentrations of suspended solid and turbidity in Imha are higher than these of Andogn dam, and Banbyon have higher values than that of Yongjeon stream in Imha dam. There is no difference in size distribution and mineral composition of the suspended particles in Andong and Imha dam. The turbidity-causing materials are composed of vermiculite. illite, kaolinite, quartz and albite. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that turbidity-causing materials are have similar mineralogy between Andong and Imha Dam, but they have different abundance.

In this research, behaviour of turbidity and phosphorus in water and soil dependent upon pH and a change of water was studied. Phosphorus dissolve rate from turbidity was increased for water if potential of hydrogen was less than pH 4 or more than pH 7. Turbidity release rate from soil was increased with pH. Turbidity release rate from soil was drastically increased for water if potential of hydrogen was more than pH 4. turbidity release rate from soil was stabilized more than pH 6. Dissolved phosphorus was increased from 2 hours to 24 hours and stabilized in 24 hours. Turbidity was reached the peak of 24 hours and decreased from 24 hours to 96 hours. Turbidity and dissolved phosphorus was decreased for water if these samples were changed a overlying water. Behaviour of turbidity was analogous to dissolved phosphorus when potential of hydrogen was increased from pH 6 to pH 10 and a change of overlying water was increased from 1 time to 4 times. These results suggest that phosphorus dissolve rate and turbidity were directiy correlated with pH. These results are of great importance in lakes because most lakes have a pH in the range of pH 7-10.
