This study was carried out to investigate factors influencing on the groundwater quality at controlled horticulture in Honam area in 1995. The deeper groundwater sampling, the lower concentrations of $NH_4-N$ and $NO_3-N$ were observed. There was no difference in concentrations of $SO_4\;^{2-}$ and $Na^+$ in the groundwater below 15m. Contents of $NH_4-N$, $NO_3-N$ and $PO_4\;^{3-}$ in groundwater were the highest at rice transplanting season(the late May) and that of $SO_4\;^{2-}$, $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ were the highest at dry season(the mid-February). Continuous cultivation of horticultural crops showed higher concentration of $NH_4-N$, $NO_3-N$, $PO_4\;^{3-}$, $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ in groundwater than rotational culture with rice. The longer cultivation years with horticultural crops, the higher concentrations of $NO_3-N$, $PO_4\;^{3-}$, $SO_4\;^{2-}$ and $Cl^-$ were shown, and constitutional ratio of $NO_3-N$ among the anions increased gradually. Nitrate-N level, exceeded 20mg/l, the critical level for agricultural usage, frequently at Yongjinmyeon Wanju and Janglockdong Kwangju, and $PO_4\;^{3-}$ levels were higher at Seogtandong Iksan than the other places.

When a $CH_2Cl_2$ solution of the dipyridyl species L' (N,N'-bis-(1-pyridin-4-yl-ethylidene)-naphthalene-1,5-diamine) was layered onto the top of a MeOH solution of $Co(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$, a molecular cobalt compound [$CoL_2(MeOH)(NO_3)_2$] (1), not a coordination polymer, was formed. X-ray structural analysis of compound 1 revealed that it contains the pyridyl-amine ligand L (N1-(4-imino-1-methyl-but-2-enylidene)-naphthalene-1,5-diamine), instead of L'. Structure of compound 1 strongly suggests that the original ligand L' has been hydrolyzed to ligand L during the reaction.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the productivity in permanent orchardgrass grassland according to the urea fertilization levels of 0, 100, 200 kg N/ha and the animal excreta fertilization levels of 0. 40, 80, 160 kg N/ha on the basis of N contents respectively and NO$_3$-N content of the soil. The results were obtained as follows; 1. The productivity of grassland was significantly increased by the increase of the excreta fertilization levels until the urea-N level fertilization of 100 kg/ha but repressed and reduced by the increase to 160 kg/ha level of the animal excreta fertilization at urea-N fertilization level of 200 kg/ha. 2. Averaged seasonal productivity of the animal excreta N was decreased in first and third cutting time and was increased in second cutting time according to the increase of urea-N fertilization. 3. The increase of urea-N and animal excreta N increased the content of crude protein but the fertilization effect of urea-N was higher than that of animal excreta N. 4. The total yield of N was continuously increased at both of the urea-N and animal excreta N but the pure yield of N was decreased according to the increase of N fertilization and showed -63.1 kg/ha at the fertilization of the urea-N of 200 kg N/ha and animal excreta N of 160 kg/ha. 5. NO$_3$-N content of the soil of orchardgrass glassland established one year previously was no difference among the N variety and fertilization levels but was increased to the order of summer, autumn and winter. The highest content of NO$_3$-N was measured in winter with the value of 34.9 ppm.

Titania is widely used as an effective photocatalyst for the photodegradation of environmental pollutants in air. In this study, novel N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts were synthesized via sol-gel method and characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometer, transmission electron microscope, and X-ray diffractometer. N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts were nano-sized with an average particle size of about 20 nm. The XRD pattern of N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts showed both anatase and rutile phases. The photocatalytic activity of N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts was evaluated by degradation of NO under UV and visible light irradiation at various parameters such as amount of photocatalyst, concentration of NO, and intensity of light. The photocatalytic activity of N-doped $ZrO_2/TiO_2$ photocatalysts was effective for the enhancement of the degradation of NO and higher than that of $TiO_2$ photocatlysts under UV and visible light irradiation.

Characteristics and oxidizing ability of both $NH_4-N$ and$NO^2$-N were examined for the strains isolated from wastewater treatment facilities and from natural systems by using Winogradsky columns. In case of $NH_4$-N, the most efficient strain was Nitrosomonas KB1 isolated from wastewater treatment facility of K corporation and in case of $NO_2$-N, it was Nitrobacter KB2 from the same site as Nitrosomonas KB1. For Nitrosomonas KB1, 91% of $NH_4$-N was oxidized after 4 days of cultivation. Optimal growth temperature and initial pH of Nitrosomonas KB1 were $28^{\circ}C$ and 7, respectively. In comparison to oxidizing rates with changing initial concentration of $NH_4$-N, the ammonia oxidizing rate was increased up to 6.7 mg/day for the initial $NO_2$-N concentrations for the region lower than 100 mg $NH_4-N/L$, but it was gradually reduced for the region higher than 100 mg $NH_4-N/L$. For Nitrobacter KB2 90% of $NO_2$-N was removed after culturing for 4 days. Optimal growth temperature and initial pH of Nitrobacter KB2 was $28^{\circ}C$ and 7, respectively. And the nitrite oxidizing rate was increased in proportion to the initial concentrations of $NO_2$-N up to 200 mg/$\ell$, and it was maintained almost 4.2 mg/day irrespective of initial $NO_2$-N higher than 200 mg/L.

The characteristics of $NO/N_2O$ annealed reoxidized nitrided oxide being studied as super thin gate oxide and gate dielectric layers of Non-Volatile Semiconductor Memory (NVSM) were investigated by Dynamic Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (D-SIMS), Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS), and Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). The specimen was annealed by $NO/N_2O$ after initial oxide process and then rcoxidized for nitrogen redistribution in nitrided oxide. Out-diffusion of incorporated nitrogen during the wet oxidation in reoxidation process took place more strongly than that of the dry oxidation. It seems to indicate that hydrogen plays a role in breaking the Si N bonds. As reoxidation proceeds, incorporated nitrogen of $NO/N_2O$ annealed nitrided oxide is obsen-ed to diffuse toward the surface and substrate at the same time. ToF-SIMS results show that SiON species are detected at the initialoxide interface, and Si,NO species near the new $Si_2NO$ interface that formed after reoxidation. These SiON and $Si_2NO$ species most likely to relate to the origin of the state of memory charge traps in reoxidized nitrided oxide, because nitrogen dangling bonds of SiON and silicon dangling bonds of $Si_2NO$ are contained defects associated with memory effect.

In this work, the $N_2O$ decomposition catalyst and reaction characteristics to control the $N_2O$ removal were described. Experiments were carried out by using Rh as an active metal catalyst on various supports and the $Rh/CeO_2$ catalyst with $CeO_2$ support showed the best activity for the $N_2O$ decomposition when it was prepared under the constant heat treatment condition ($500^{\circ}C$-4 hr). $H_2-TPR$ and XPS analyzes were performed to confirm the effect of the physical and chemical properties of the catalyst on $N_2O$ decomposition. As a result, it was found that the increase of the oxygen transfer capacity of the catalyst due to the increase of both the redox property and $Ce^{3+}$ amount affected the decomposition reaction of $N_2O$. In addition, the future work will include a treatment process capable of decomposition $N_2O$ and NO under the condition that $N_2O$ and NO are simultaneously generated and its characteristics of $N_2O$ decomposition reaction.

Combined effect of modified atmosphere packaging and gamma irradiation on color characteristics of emulsion-type cooked pork sausage were investigated. Nitrosomyoglobin (NO-Mb) contents and CIE color values of sausage with aerobic, $CO_2, \;N_2$, and $CO_2/N_2$ packagings were observed during storage for 4 weeks. Irradiation reduced NO-Mb content in sausage, inducing denitrosylation of nitrite-cured meats. $CO_2$ and $CO_2/N_2$ packagings were effective for maintaining NO-Mb content. In CIE color values, $a^*$ was significantly reduced by irradiation at 5 kGy and above. The $a^*$ values of sausages with $CO_2$ and $CO_2/N_2$ packagings were higher than those of aerobic or $N_2$ packaging. Results indicated that modified atmosphere packaging, such as $CO_2$ or $CO_2/N_2$ packaging, was effective for minimizing the loss of red color in sausage caused by irradiation.

In this study, quantitative measurement of nitric oxide concentration distributions were investigated in the laminar CH4/O2/N2 premixed flame by laser-induced fluorescence (LIF). The NO A-X (0,0) vibrational band around 226nm was excited using a XeCl excimer-pumped dye laser. Selecting an appropriate NO transition minimizes interference from Rayleigh scattering and O2 fluorescence. The measurements were taken in CH4/O2/N2 premixed flame with equivalence ratios varying from $1.0{\sim}1.6$, and a fixed flowrate of 5slpm. NO was found to produce primarily between an inner premixed and an outer nonpremixed flame front, and total NO concentration is raised when equivalence ratios increase. These results suggest that prompt NO is likely to contribute to NO formation in CH4/O2/N2 premixed flame. Furthermore, this trend was well matched with previous works.
