Spatial and temporal characteristics of nitrate contamination and hydrogeochemical parameters were investigated for springs and surficial and bedrock groundwaters in northeastern part of Hongseong. Two field investigations were conducted at dry and wet seasons in 2011 for 120 sites including measurement of field parameters with chemical analyses of major dissolved constituents. Nitrate concentrations were at background levels in springs while 45% of bedrock groundwater and 49% of surficial groundwater exceeded the drinking water standard of nitrate (10 mg/L as $NO_3$-N). The difference in nitrate concentrations between surficial and bedrock groundwater was statistically insignificant. Cumulative frequency distribution of nitrate concentrations revealed two inflection points of 2 and 16 mg/L as $NO_3$-N. Correlation analysis of hydrogeochemical parameters showed that nitrate had higher correlations with Sr, Mg, Cl, Na, and Ca, in surficial groundwater in both dry and wet season. In contrast, nitrate had much weaker correlations with other hydrogeochemical parameters in bedrock groundwater compared to surficial groundwater and had significant correlations only in wet season. Temporally, nitrate and chloride concentrations decreased and dissolved oxygen (DO) increased from dry season to wet season, which indicates that increased recharge during the wet season affected groundwater quality. Aerobic conditions were predominant for both surficial and bedrock groundwater indicating low natural attenuation potential of nitrate in the aquifers of the study area.

Paper relics are affected by a number of complex physical, chemical, biological and artificial damaging factors due to the vulnerability of organic materials. Wet cleaning is a conservation treatment method for removing pollutants from paper artefacts. This study was carried out in order to analyse the effect of wet cleaning on Hanji (Traditional Korean paper made from mulberry trees) which is the main material used in Korean paper relics (historical paper documents). For this study, the color change and folding endurance of artificially degraded paper was analysed before and after immersion wet cleaning. The result showed that washing each twice in 30 minutes is the most appropriate method for obtaining cleaning efficiency and material stability.

Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is sulfaamide-based synthetic antibiotics, which are widely prescribed pharmaceutical compound to treat bacterial infections in both human and animals. Most of them are not completely decomposed as refractory substances. The environmental impact of pharmaceuticals as emerging contaminants has generated severe concerns. In this study, catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) of SMX was carried out with $Cu/Al_2O_3$ catalyst and investigated the optimum reaction conditions of temperature, dosage of catalyst and concentration of $H_2O_2$ to completely decompose the SMX. It was observed that SMX was completely decomposed within 20 min using 0.79 mM $H_2O_2$ and 6 g $Cu/Al_2O_3$ catalyst at 1 atm and $40^{\circ}C$, but SMX was not fully mineralized and converted to intermediates as hydroylated-SMX, sulfanilic acid, 4-aminobenzenesulfinic acid and nitrobenzene. After that these are completely mineralized through organic acid. We proposed the decomposition reaction path ways of SMX by analyzing the behavior of these intermediates. To investigate the durability of heterogeneous catalyst, decomposition of SMX was observed by continuously recycling catalysts. When the heterogeneous catalyst of 10 wt% $Cu/Al_2O_3$ was continuously reused 5 times, decomposition of SMX was a little lowered, but the activity of catalyst was overall very stable.

Synthesis and characterization of ZnO structure such as nanowires, nanorods, nanotube, nanowall, etc. have been studied to multifunctional application such as optical, nanoscale electronic and chemical devices because it has a room-temperature wide band gap of 3.37eV, large exiton binding energy(60meV) and various properties. Various synthesis methods including chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition, electrochemical deposition, micro-emulsion, and hydrothermal approach have been reported to fabricate various kinds of ZnO nanostructures. But some of these synthesis methods are expensive and difficult of mass production. Wet chemical method has several advantage such as simple process, mass production, low temperature process, and low cost. In the present work, ZnO nanorods are deposited on ITO/glass substrate by simple wet chemical method. The process is perfomed by two steps. One-step is deposition of ZnO seeds and two-step is growth of ZnO nanorods on substrates. In order to form ZnO seeds on substrates, mixture solution of Zn acetate and Methanol was prepared.(one-step) Seed layers were deposited for control of morpholgy of ZnO seed layers by spin coating process because ZnO seeds is deposited uniformly by centrifugal force of spin coating. The seed-deposited samples were pre-annealed for 30min at $180^{\circ}C$ to enhance adhesion and crystallinnity of ZnO seed layer on substrate. Vertically well-aligned ZnO nanorods were grown by the "dipping-and-holding" process of the substrates into the mixture solution consisting of the mixture solution of DI water, Zinc nitrate and hexamethylenetetramine for 4 hours at $90^{\circ}C$.(two-step) It was found that density and morphology of ZnO nanorods were controlled by manipulation of ZnO seeds through rpm of spin coating. The morphology, crystallinity, optical properties of the grown ZnO nanostructures were carried out by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution electron microscopy, photoluminescence, respectively. We are convinced that this method is complementing problems of main techniques of existing reports.

Polydopamine은 수중 접착력, 친환경 접착제, nanoparticle absorption 등 다양한 특성으로 많이 연구되고 있는 소재이다. 본 연구에서는 dopamine을 이용하여 수중 금속을 흡착시키는 thin film을 제작하였다. 종래의 Polydopamine coating 방법으로 wet coating 이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 wet 방식의 경우 시간이 오래 걸릴 뿐만 아니라 in-line, roll to roll 방식을 적용하는 것이 어렵기 때문에 생산적이지 않다. 이에 본 연구에서는 Atmospheric Pressure Plasma(APP)를 이용 하여 Polydopamine-like film을 coating 하였다. APP의 경우 vacuum system, solution tank가 필요 없고 in-line, roll to roll 방식을 적용 할 수 있기 때문에 더 경제적이고 생산적인 공정이다. 또한 기존의 Plasma polymerization 방법은 Plasma energy가 높기 때문에 source의 분자구조가 바뀌거나 atom 단위로 분해된다. source의 분자구조가 바뀌는 "Atomic polymerization", Neiswender-Rosskamp Mechanism이 적용되면 wet 방식 coating한 film과는 다른 특성을 갖게 된다. 하지만 APP polymerization은 Plasma energy가 vacuum plasma 보다 매우 낮기 때문에 stile polymerization mechanism을 구현 하는데 적합 하다. stile polymerization mechanism은 Plasma 내부에서 polymer source를 분해 성장 시켜서 Polymer film 얻는 것이 아닌 source의 분자구조가 깨지지 않으면서 polymer growing 시키는 방법이다. dopamine source의 분자구조를 최대한 유지하려고 하는 이유는 metal absorption과 같은 특성이 dopamine chemical structure에 영향을 받기 때문이다. 많은 논문들에서 dopamine의 catechol group이 metal absorption, adhesion force에 영향을 주는 주요 인자라고 주장하고 있기 때문이다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 Dopamine source의 형태를 보존하면서 Polymerization 하는 방법으로 APP process를 사용 하여 낮은 전압에서 Polydopamine-like film을 제작 하였다. APP system 의 Plasma 방전부 에 Dopamine source를 유입하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 Piezo Spray 방식을 사용 하였다. Dopamine을 evaporator 하는 것이 어렵고 chemical composition이 유사한 monomer를 사용해서 Plasma Polymerization으로 Dopamine 분자 구조를 재현하는 것도 어렵다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 Dopamine을 water에 immerse 하고 Dopamine solution을 mist 상태로 만들어서 Plasma discharge area에 유입하였다. 이러한 방법으로 만들어진 film은 Polydopamine film은 아니지만 Polydopamine film과 유사한 Chemical composition, chemical structure, metal absorption을 갖는 것을 FT-IR, SEM, XPS을 이용 하여 확인 하였다. Dopamine source의 보존에 대하여 명확하게 확인하기 위하여 FT-IR을 측정 하였다. 전압에 따른 Benzene ring, hydroxyl group의 비율을 확인 하였다. 낮은 전압으로 coating 된 Polydopamine-like film 일수록 hydroxyl group peak($3400{\sim}3000cm^{-1}$)과 비교하여 Benzene ring peak($1600{\sim}1580cm^{-1}$ and $1510{\sim}500cm^{-1}$)이 흡수를 더 많이 하는 것을 확인 할 수 있다. 이것은 Benzene ring이 파괴되지 않고 보존되는 것을 보여준다. Dopamine에서 Benzene ring은 absorption main factor인 catechol에 있는 chemical structure이다. 즉 Benzene ring peak이 높을수록 Catechol이 잘 보존 되었다는 의미 이다. Catechol의 보존은 absorption main factor가 보존 된다는 의미 이다. 이러한 Polydopamine-like film으로 As, Cr, Mg, Cu 200ppm solution에 대한 filtration 능력을 확인 하였다. As, Cr, Cu, Mg 의 제거율이 각각 약25%, 35%, 45%, 65%인 것을 확인 하였다. 이 수치는 시중에 판매되는 제품들과 비교했을 때 300%~500% 향상된 수치 이다.

This study focuses on the simulation of wet flue gas desulfurization process for improving the production of gypsum by the utilization of low-grade limestone. At present, high-grade limestone with a $CaCO_3$ content of 94% is used for producing merchantable gypsum. In modeling process, a lot of reactions are considered to develop model. First, the limestone dissolution is simulated by RSTOIC model. Second, SOx absorption and crystallization is used by RCSTR model. Finally the gypsum is separated by using SEPERATORS model. Modeling steps make it easy to reflect further side reactions and physical disturbances. In optimization condition, constraints are set to 93% purity of gypsum, 94% desulfurization efficiency, and total use of limestone at 3710 kg/hr. Under these constraints, the mass flow of low-grade limestone was maximized. As a result, the maximum blending quantity of low-grade limestone for 2,100 kg of high-grade limestone that satisfies constraints is about 1,610 kg.
