소수성 고운자촉매는 중수형 원자력발전소의 감속재 및 냉각재로 사용되는 중수의 제조, 그리고 발전소의 가동에 따라 중수중에 축적되는 삼중수소의 제거공정 둥에 이용된다. 여러 소수성 담체중 하나인 소수성 고분자담체를 제조하기 위하여 스티렌-디비닐벤젠의 제조 특성을 실험하였다. 제조된 담체에 백금 금속을 담지시켜 촉매를 완성한 후 삼중수소제거 실증실험을 통하여 촉매성능을 확인하였다. 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 고분자담체의 제조시 담체의 기공 특성 및 비표면적에 대한 용매의 영향을 실험하였다. 또한 용매비를 변화시킨 경우에는 solvating power 값을 계산하여 거시기공 형태의 담체 형성기준을 정하였고 여기에 따른 기공 특성 및 비표면적 변화를 부인하였다. 담체의 제조 후 후처리 방법을 변화시켜 기공 특성 및 비표면적 변화를 확인하였고, 이의 결과를 통하여 적절한 후처리 방법을 정하였다. 담체의 입자크기를 조절하기 위해 중합반응 과정중의 교반속도를 변화시켜 담체의 크기 변화를 실험하였다. 제조된 담체에 백금 금속을 담지시켜 촉매를 완성한 후 삼중수소제거 반응실험을 통해 촉매의 활성을 확인하였다.

최근 들어 WGS 반응은 Pt과 같은 귀금속 촉매를 다양한 담체에 담지하여 낮은 온도에서 높은 활성을 지닌 촉매를 제조하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. WGS 반응에서 귀금속 촉매가 높은 활성을 가지기 위해서 높은 산소저장능력(Oxygen Storage Capacity)과 산화환원능력(Redox)을 지닌 담체 개발이 필요하다. Ce-$ZrO_2$ 담체는 구조적으로 안정하며 높은 산소저장능을 가지고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. Ce-$ZrO_2$ 구조는 Ce/Zr 비에 따라 다양한 변화가 생긴다. Ce/Zr 비가 6/4, 8/2인 경우 입방구조(Cubic)를 가지며 2/8인 경우 정방입계(Tetragonal)구조를 가진다. 이것은 담체 특성의 변화를 의미한다. 따라서, WGS 반응용 최적 담체를 선정하기 위해 Ce/Zr 비를 제조변수로 하여 담체특성을 분석하였다. 제조된 모든 담체는 공침법(Co-precipitation)을 사용하여 제조하였으며 $500^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 소성하였다. 담체 특성분석은 BET, XRD를 이용하였다. 추가적으로 제조변수를 다양화하여 담체 제조를 마쳤으며 특성분석이 진행 중이다. 분석 결과 $Ce_{0.2}Zr_{0.8}O_2$ 담체가 가장 넓은 표면적을 가지고 있으며 Ce/Zr 비가 높아질수록 표면적이 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. Ce-$ZrO_2$ 담체의 나노결정크기는 Ce/Zr 비가 작아질수록 결정크기가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며 $Ce_{0.2}Zr_{0.8}O_2$가 Ce-$ZrO_2$ 담체 중에서 가장 작은 결정크기를 나타내어 3nm 이하의 나노-담체가 제조되었음을 확인하였다.

Remediation process by using the bio-carrier (beads) with dead Bacillus sp. B1 and polysulfone was investigated for heavy metal contaminated groundwater. Sorption batch experiments using the bio-carrier were performed to quantify the heavy metal removal efficiencies from the contaminated solution. The analyses using SEM/EDS and TEM for the structure and the characteristic of precipitates on/inside the beads were also conducted to understand the sorption mechanism by the bio-carrier. Various amounts of freeze-dried dead Bacillus sp. B1 were mixed with polysulfone + DMF(N,N-dimethylformamide) solution to produce the bio-carrier (beads; less than 2mm in diameter) and 5% of Bacillus sp. B1 in the bio-carrier was optimal for Pb removal in the solution. The removal efficiency ratings of the bio-carrier for Pb, Cu and Cd were greater than 80% after adding 2g of bio-carrier in 50ml of aqueous solution (<10mg/L of each heavy metal concentration). Reaction time of the bio-carrier was very fast and most of the sorption reaction for heavy metals were completed within few hours. Batch experiments were duplicated at various pH conditions of aqueous solutions and Cu and Pb removal efficiencies highly maintained at wide pH ranges (pH 2-12), suggesting that the bio-carrier can be useful to clean up the acidic waste water such as AMD. From SEM/EDS and TEM analyses, it was observed that the bio-carrier was spherical shape and was overlapped by many porous layers. During the sorption experiment, Pb was crystallized on the surface of porous layers and also was mainly concentrated at the boundary of Bacillus sp. B1 stroma and polysulfone substrate, showing that the main mechanism of the bio-carrier to remove heavy metals is the sorption on/inside of the bio-carriers and the bio-carriers are excellent biosorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from groundwater.

삼중수소 제거 공정에 이용되는 소수성 고분자촉매의 담체인 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 공중합체의 제조 특성을 실험하였다. 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 고분자담체의 제조시 담체의 표면 특성에 대한 중합용액의 안정화 영향을 실험한 결과 약 40~55$^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 2시간 이상 용액을 안정화 시키는 것이 가장 바람직하였다. 또한 후처리 방법은 담체를 건조시키기 전에 용매를 제거하는 방법이 가장 우수한 기공 특성을 나타내었다. 담체의 입자 크기는 계면활성제의 농도가 낮을수록 더 크게 생성되었지만 용액의 점도가 증가하면 계면활성제의 영향이 감소됨을 알 수 있었다.

Surface of hydrophobic media was modified to become hydrophilic by ion beam irradiation. Fixed bed biofilm reactors packed with or without surface modification were used to remove organics, nitrogen, and phosphorus from sewage. This system composed of anoxic/oxic cycles to increase the nutrient removal. A cylindrical polyethylene was used as a packing media in this study. With 12 hours of hydraulic retention time (HRT), the reactors with and without surface modification showed 95% and 92% $COD_{cr}$ removal, respectively. Both reactors showed over 95% $COD_{cr}$ removals for a longer HRT of 16 hours. Nitrogen removal ranged 54.8% to 70.2% for the surface modified system and 57.5% to 76.5% for the non-modified system under same condition. Finally, phosphorus removal ranged 59.4% to 69.8% for the surface modified system and 51.3% to 63.4% for the non-modified system under same condition. From this study organics and phosphorus were better removed in using surface modified media and vice versa for nitrogen removal.

In the advanced treatment of sewage using the submerged membrane-coupled sequencing batch reactor (SMSBR) with media, the effect of media on the filtration performance and removal efficiency were investigated. Dosages of the media in the SMSBR were 10% based on working volume of reactor. As a control system, SMSBR without media and PAC, SMSBR with PAC (10 g/L) only, and SMSBR with media and PAC were also operated. The experimental results showed that there was no big difference observed in the removal efficiencies of COD, T-N, and T-P irrespective of the dosages of the media and PAC. But transmembrane pressure (TMP) of SMSBR with media increased slowly during the operation time, while that of SMSBR without media increased rapidly. Using SMSBR with media, it was possible to operate without the membrane cleaning during the 91 days. Using SMSBR with media only, after 80 days the average removal efficiencies of COD, T-N, and T-P were 95.0, 69.3%, and 51.4%, respectively.

Using a cellulose macroporous microcarrier, HeLa cells were cultivated in 100mL spinner flask(Bellco Co., USA) and confluent cell laden microcarriers were subcultured by bead-to-bead cell transfer method. In macroporous mcirocarrier-HeLa system viable suspended cells played an important role in bead-to-bead cell transfer and that could be increased by use of RPMI-1640, a calcium-ion-reduced-media and high speed agitation. Successful bead-to-bead cell transfers were performed continuously three time in spinner flask. We applied this technique to produce recombinant Vaccinia virus which express $\beta$-galactosidase. Recombinant protein yield of bead-to-bead transferred culture was comparable to conventional microcarrier cultures that were inoculated by cells detached from T-flask. Although trypsinization is a useful method for subculturing microcarriers in some cases, that process adds quality control problem and handling steps to large scale cell production. There fore, bead-to-bead cell transfer technique offers another convenient and efficient scale-up method for continuous microcarrier cultures.

In the submerged membrane-coupled sequencing batch reactor (MSBR) with sponge type media, the effect of media on the removal efficiency and filtration performance were investigated. Dosages of the media in the MSBR were set of 5%, 10%, and 20% based on working volume of reactor. As a control system, the MSBR without media was also operated. The experimental results showed that there was also no difference observed in the removal efficiencies of COD, T-N, and T-P irrespective of the dosages of the media. But TMP (transmembrane pressure) of the MSBR with media increased slowly during the operation time, while that of the MSBR without media increased rapidly at the initial operation. This result was thought that the collisions between flat membrane and moving media gave shear forces which decreased the cake layer on the surface of flat type membrane. Consequently, this study showed that filtration performance of the MSBR with media was greatly enhanced compared with that of the MSBR without media. The MSBR with media suggested in this study can be a good candidate for the wastewater treatment.
