A large quantity of ethylene glycol(EG) is remained in the effluent after pretreating polyester weight-loss wastewater physicochemically in the fist stage and must be treated biologically in the second stage. Therefore, an excellent EG-utilizing bacteria strain was isolated from the natural system and the optimal culture conditions of the strain were investigated. The optimal culture conditions of temperature, pH, and nitrogen source were found to be 35$^{\circ}C$, 7.5 and ammonium chloride, respectively, when CODCr removal efficiency was more than 90%. The growth of stains and EG removal efficiency was slightly improved by adding elements such as niacin and biotin. With increasing inoculation size in a batch culture, the removal efficiency of EG was conspicuously increased. Growth rate was inhibited when the initial concentration of EG was more then 30g/L. The strain was identified as Pseudomonas sp. based on morphological and biological characteristics and named as Pseudomonas sp. EG1.

Ethylene glycol (EG) intoxication in dogs can pose a diagnostic challenge. We investigated the effect of a lethal dose of EG to the Shepherd on blood, urine test, and histopathologic observation. Shepherds were treated orally with EG at $10\;m{\ell}/kg$ body weight. Clinically, EG caused the vomition, depression of central brain. Anion gap was increased, which was decreased pH of blood, The blood osmorality was increased at 3 hours, and BUN and creatinine was increased at 24 hour significantly. The pH of urine decreased. The crystal of calcium oxalate appeared at 6 hours. The amount of crystals increased at 12 and 24 hours. Microscopically, the degeneration of proximal tubules were shown at 1 hour and finally progressed as acute tubular nephrosis at 24 hours. These results suggest that the blood and urine test accompanied with histopathological examination be helpful to investigate the EG intoxication.

PET microfiber fabric dissociation reactions by ethylene glycol (EG) catalayzed by the corresponding EG anions were examined to provide an empirical basis for the improvement of a PET microfiber fabrics. The alkoxide ions, monosodium ethylene glycolate in ethylene glycol solution(MSEG-EG) are prepared by the reaction between NaH and the EG respectively. The dissociation reactions were carried out until the sample PET microfiber fabrics dissociate up to 80%. Temperature used ranged 100~$160^{\circ}C$. The kinetic behaviors of the dissociated PET microfiber fabrics were examined. The results are as follows : 1. In all cases, it was found that the PET-alkoxide dissociation rate constants increased exponentially with increasing temperature. The activation energies (Ea) of the reactions were 23.31kcal/mol in PET-EG system respectively. The calculated enthalpies of the activated [PET-EG] complexes from the corresponding Ea values were 22.53 ~ 22.61 kcal/mol, and the entropies were -19.03 ~ -19.24 kcal/mol/k respectively. 2. The kinetic behavior of the PET-alkoxide dissociation reactions examined was explained by the transition state theory. PET-alkoxide transition state is believed to be formed during the ester interchange mechanism between PET and MSEG-EG in the course of the PET dissociation reactions.

An microorganism able to degrade ethylene glycol(EG) was developed. Using this microorganism, biological treatment of ethylene glycol was studied in Erlenmeyer flasks and a laboratory scale stirred loop bioreactor. The removal efficiencies of ethylene glycol from synthetic wastewater were 91.6% ${\sim}$ 97.7% at $30^{\circ}C$ ${\sim}$ $40^{\circ}C$, and 96.3% ${\sim}$ 97.9% at initial pH 9 ${\sim}$ 11 respectively. Also the removal efficiencies of ethylene glycol were found to be more then 92% at initial ethylene glycol concentration of 300mg/L ${\sim}$ I400mg/L. In treatment of weight loss treatment wastewater using Erlenmeyer flasks, the removal efficiencies of ethylene glycol were 79.6%. 82.5%. 77.6%. and 71.3% at initial pH 9. 10. 11. and 12.4 after 11 days of reaction. Moreover in treatment of complex dyeing process wastewater. the residual ethylene glycol was not detected at the initial pH 10.0 and pH 11.3 after 4 days of reaction. When stirred loop bioreactor was used for removing ethylene glycol, the residual ethylene glycol was not detected after 108 hrs and 60 hrs of reaction in batch treatment of weight loss treatment wastewater and complex dyeing process wastewater.

This research was to investigate the polyester preparation using waste ethylene glycol (EG) generated from the wastepaper pretreatment process. Waste EG was obtained from using EG five times repeatedly in the pretreatment of wastepaper. The hydroxyl value of the waste EG was 441 mg KOH/g and its composition was 0.68% cellulose, 6.5% hemicellulose, 6.1% lignin, and 86.7% EG. Maleic acid was used as carboxylic acid. The effect of reaction temperature and time except carboxyl group/hydroxyl group ratio on the crosslinkage of the prepared polyester was marginal. Citric acid, lithium hydroxide and dicumyl peroxide were used as additive or catalyst to enhance the crosslinkage of polyester. Among them, 10% of citric acid was found to be most effective. The crosslinkage was 86% when the polyester was prepared at an optimum condition such as $130^{\circ}C$ and 15 minutes, 1.5 of C/H ratio, and 10% of citric acid, and its insoluble percentage in boiling water for 6 hours was 47%. The weight loss of the prepared polyester was approximately 40% when it was buried in damp soil for 5 months, indicating that it is readily biodegradable. This results can provide some information for future development of wastepaper pretreatment by organic solvent.

The aim of this study is to clarify the therapeutic effect of hemodialysis (HD) on acute renal failure in dogs experimentally induced by ethylene glycol (EG) ingestion in experiment 1(HD on 12 and 36 hours after EG injestion) and experiment 2(HD on 24 and 48 hours after EG injestion). Clinical signs such as vomiting, depression, ataxia and knuckling were improved on experiment 1 and 2. White blood cell (WBC) and platelets (PLT) were decreased, and packed cell volume (PCV) was increased after hemodialysis, however, no significant differences were observed in experiment 1 and 2. BUN, creatinine and phosphorus was significantly decreased in experiment 1 and 2, respectively. These results suggested that hemodialysis was effective for acute renal failure in dogs induced by EG ingestion.

에틸렌 글리콜(ethylene glycol)은 자동차 부동액 주성분으로 우리 실생활에 널리 쓰이고 있다. 접근이 용이하고 달콤한 맛 때문에 자살목적이나 보관 및 사용 시 의도적으로 또는 실수로 인한 오용사고가 자주 발생한다. 에틸렌 글리콜은 그 자체로는 인체의 독성이 낮지만 생체에서 대사과정을 거치면서 독성이 높아진 유기산을 만들어 다양한 조직에서 광범위한 세포손상을 유발한다. 다양한 세포 스트레스가 소포체(ER) 샤페론과 소포체 스트레스 센서의 유전자 발현을 유도하는 것은 이미 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 rat 조직에서 소포체 샤페론과 소포체 스트레스 센서 유전자의 발현 조절이 에틸렌 글리콜에 의해 유도되고, 조직학적 변화도 H&E 염색 및 면역 형광염색에 의해 확인하였다.

Treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution plays an important role to impart certain desirable properties - feel and luster on the surface of polyester fiber. In this process alkali wastewater contains disodium terephthalate, ethylene glycol (EG) and residual sodium hydroxide. In this paper we report a new method containing the pretreatments of derivatization with benzoyl chloride and solvent extraction using pentane. The calibration curve of EG determined by GC/MS-SIM shows a good linearity in the range of 0.1 to $25{\mu}g/mL$ having the standard deviation of ${\leq}8.7%$. The recovery and the detection limit of this method are 91.9-93.7% and $0.05{\mu}g/mL$ respectively.
