The rock matrix diffusion provides a retarding mechanism for sorbing and especially non-sorbing radionuclides. It has to be verified not only theoretically and experimentally but also from natural phenomena, before the mechanism can be incorporated fully into transport codes. The natural analogue studies, such as the concentration variation of radionuclides in profiles perpendicular to fluid-conducting fractures and to intrusive contact zones, have been believed to provide a validation. In thermal alteration zones of Naeduckri granite intruded by a pegmatite, large alkali and alkaline earth elements such as K, Rb, Sr, and Ba were moderately migrated during thermal alteration. Li, V. and Nb were also migrated about 9cm in width from the contact between the granite and the pegmatite. The concentration variation of these elements in thermally altered zones seems to be resulted from the local migration due to the re-equilibration among the elements released from the breakdown of primary minerals in the granite. Most of these natural analogue studies simply show only the concentration variation of elements without detailed informations on the diffusion time and other important data fir interpreting the behaviour of radionuclides, because of the absence of appropriate minerals for age data. Despite this problem, natural analogue studies will be needed for transport models of radionuclides in safety assessment.

해수 온도의 상승과 해양 오염의 증가로 근래 국내 해안에서도 갯녹음이 확산되면서 바다숲이 축소되고 있다. 특히, 온난류의 유입에 의한 무절 석회조류의 난입과 해수에 함유 농도가 증가한 칼슘이 석출되고 해저 암반을 뒤덮어 해조류의 포자 활착 공간을 없애는 백화현상이 확산되면서 바다의 사막화 현상이 가속화되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 해조류의 포자가 빠르게 활착하여 안전하게 생장할 수 있는 공간을 제공하기 위한 새로운 방안으로, 먼저 육상에서 모판의 기능을 제공하여 해조류의 포자를 착상하여 성장시킨 후 해저로 이식하는 것으로 바다숲과 해안의 환경을 효과적으로 복원하기 위한 방안으로 다공성 기질 생태 플랫폼을 디자인하고 이의 특성 및 활용 방안을 제시하였다.

The fiffusion characteristics of substrate of varing biomass concentrations into and from Ca- alginate gel beads in well-stirred solutions were investigated. Ca-alginate gel beads were immobilized by Zymomonas mobilis or free from cells. The values of the diffusion coefficient of substrate were calculated by means of the method of Least squares and Random pore model. Reaction rates are expressed by the Michaelis-Menten type equation, and the results are compared with experimental data. Intraparticle effective diffusivity of substrate resistance on reaction by using immobilized Z.mobilis entrapped by Ca-alginated gel seemed to be restricted by cell density. The experimental data also indicated relationship between the effective diffusivity and the cell concentration used in the gel preparation.

We prepared non-porous membrane on the $Al_2O_3$ substrate with the different pore by the size by the plasma polymerization of $CHF_3$. We studied the permeability characteristics of membrane by Ar treatment and the effect of substrate pore size on gas permeation mechanism. The selectivity was increased with Ar plasma treatment time and rf-power near the substrate to the cathode while the permeability was decreased. It was observed that the solution-diffusion model would be applied to non-porous layers while it is applied Knudsen diffusion model to the substrate. From the experimental observation, it could be concluded that the pore size of $Al_2O_3$ membrane influenced on the permeability and the selectivity.

A model of substrate removal by rotating discs has been developed for a better understanding of the process, and the performance of the system has been evaluated under steady and unsteady state. The model was constructed based upon mass transfer of the substrate from the bulk solution to the biofilm and a simultaneous removal of the substrate by the biomass. The model is composed of a few sets of differential equations representing mass balance within the elements of a liquid film and a biofilm, and in the bulk solution. Substrate removal efficiency of the process is largely dependent on a diffusion coefficient of the substrate within the biofilm and a maximum rate of substrate removal of the biomass. The efficiency is affected to a greater extent when the substrate concentration is low and the maximum substrate removal rate is high. The efficiency increases proportionally with increasing film depth when the biofilm is shallow, however, the rate of increase gradually decreases with an increase of the film depth. As the film reaches a limiting depth, the efficiency remains constant. Unlike the steady state, the effluent quality is affected by the tank volume under dynamic state. Increasing tank volume decreases peak concentration of the effluent under peak loading. Additional tank volume provides a buffer capacitya.gainst a peak loading and the holding tank behaves like an equalization tank.

Using a natural gradient tracer test, the characteristics of hydrodynamic dispersion according to each depth of a fractured rock were studied, and the effective porosity and longitudinal dispersivity of the fractured rock were estimated. The difference of vertical hydrodynamic dispersion was identified by concentration breakthrough curves linear regression analyses of bromide concentrations according to depths versus time, and hydraulic fracture characteristics at two intervals of the monitoring well. Higher concentration and faster arrival time at GL- 18 m depth (RQD 13%, average joint spacing 2 cm, TCR 100%) than at GL- 25 m depth (RQD 41%, average joint spacing 7 cm, TCR 100%) resulted from shorter distance and more fractures. Tracer was transported through the 1 st fractures until the arrival of its peak concentration and through the 2nd fractures or matrix diffusion after the arrival of its peak concentration. The increase/decrease slopes of bromide concentration versus time were 3.46/-1.57 at GL-18 m depth and 3.l9/-0.47 at GL- 25 m depth of the monitoring well. So the faster bromide transport was confirmed at GL- 18 m depth with more fractures. The concentration increment of bromide was fitted by a Gaussian function and the concentration decrement of bromide was fitted by an exponential function. Effective porosity and longitudinal dispersivity estimated by CATTI code were 10.50% and 0.85 m, respectively.

EK를 고정화하기 위해 니켈 친화결합 방법과 공유 결합형 고정화 방법을 수행하였으며 니켈 친화결합이 공유 결합형 고정화보다 높은 고정화 수율과 activity를 나타냈다. 풀림과 재접힘을 이용한 효소의 활성 회복은 공유결합형 고정화가 니켈 친화결합보다 높은 결과를 나타내었다. 또한 기질의 분자량 크기에 따른 절단율의 차이가 없었으므로 레진 공극 내부로의 확산도 차이에 의한 절단반응의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났고, 기질 종류에 따른 EK의 활성은 작은 기질이 큰 기질보다 높은 활성을 보였다.

This research discussed about the substrate transport phenomena in anaerobic biofilm. Three anaerobic fixed biofilm reactors were filled with the sludge of anaerobic digestor from Suyoung wastewater treatment plant. After 15 days of biofilm formation periods, suspended solids within the reactors were removed, and each fixed biofilm reactor was supplied with synthetic wastewater of different concentration of 8.00 mgTOC/L, 9.76 mgTOC/L and 18.97 mgTOC/L, respectively. The experimental results in conjunction with substrate transfer phenomena indicated that data - thickness, substrate removal rate. At the low influent substrate concentration(reactor 1 : 8.00 mgTOC/L, reactor 2 : 9.76 mgTOC/L), the rate of substrate utilization($k_v$), effective diffusivity($D_{eff}$) of substrate in biofilm were similar. While $k_v$ and $D_{eff}$ of the high influent substrate concentration(reactor 3 : 18.97 mgTOC/L) were higher than data in the reactors of the low influent substrate concentration.
