본 기술은 각종 산업시설과 환경 기초 시설로부터 대기중으로 배출되는 악취 및 휘발성 유기화합물(Volatile Organic Chemicals; VOC)을 미생물의 분해 작용을 활용하여 제거하는 장치로 오염 물질의 분해과정에서 미생물의 과다생장에 의한 악취 및 휘발성 유기화합물 제거장치의 막힘현상을 미생물 고정화 담체의 교반과 살수과정을 통해 담체표면의 생물막을 효과적으로 제거하는 방법을 이용하여 오염 가스속에 함유되어 있는 악취 및 휘발성 유기화합물을 효율적으로 제거할 수 있는 기술이다. 특히, 미생물 담체의 교반 장치는 미생물 고정화 담체를 교반시켜 생물막을 탈리 시킴으로써 미생물의 생장에 의한 막힘 현상과 이로 인한 압력 손실 증가와 악취 및 휘발성 유기화합물의 제거성능의 저하를 근본적으로 해결할 수 있다.

In this study, we fabricated poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffold modified with small intestinal submucosa (SIS) as a drug delivery matrix of bioactive molecules. SIS derived from the submucosa layer of porcine intestine has been widely used as biomaterial because of low immune response. PLGA scaffold was prepared by the method of solvent casting/salt leaching. Novel composite scaffolds of SIS/PLGA were manufactured by simple immersion method of PLGA scaffold in SIS solution under vacuum. SEM observation shows that PLGA and SIS/PLGA scaffolds have interconnective and open pores. Especially, SIS/PLGA scaffold showed that micro-sponge of SIS with interconnected pore structures were formed in the pores of PLGA scaffold. In order to assay release profile of proteins, we manufactured FITC conjugated BSA loaded PLGA and SIS/PLGA scaffold. And the release amount was identified by fluorescence intensity using the fluorescence spectrophotometer. The initial burst of BSA containing SIS/PLGA scaffolds was lower than that of PLGA scaffolds resulting in constant release. And release of BSA in SIS/PLGA scaffold was fast and incremental because of the increased content of BSA. In conclusion, we confirmed that penetrated SIS solution prevented the initial burst of BSA and PLGA modified with SIS scaffold is useful as protein carriers with controlled release pattern.

Automotive three-way catalyst substrate has a cordierite ceramic honeycomb structure. The substrate in the high engine speed range doesn't satisfy the design fatigue life due to the low mechanical properties of cordierite ceramic. SiC ceramic has higher mechanical properties than cordierite ceramic. If the automotive three-way catalyst substrate is made from the SiC ceramic honeycomb structure, the substrate can be prevented from premature failure. In this study, the mechanical properties of SiC ceramic honeycomb substrate were estimated by FEA. The FEA results indicated that the MOR and elastic modulus for the SiC ceramic honeycomb substrate was much higher than those for the cordierite ceramic honeycomb substrate.

조직재생공학은 조직이나 장기를 재생하고 유지하는 데 초점을 맞춘 종합 분야이다. 세포담체는 세포가 조직이나 장기로 발달 할 수 있도록 결정적인 역할을 한다. 따라서 공극률, 기공 크기, 기공 상호 연결성, 표면 거칠기, 기계적 강도 및 기하학과 같은 기본 요구 사항들은 중요한 특성으로 간주된다. Particle leaching, phase separation, solvent casting, gas foaming, selective laser sintering, fused deposition 및 3D dispensing (printing)과 같은 다양한 Rapid Prototyping 방법이 세포담체 제조에 사용되었다. 또한, 다양한 천연 및 합성 고분자가 세포담체를 제조하는데 사용되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 3D 프린팅 방법과 플라즈마 에칭 공정을 이용하여 나노 에칭 된 나선형 가닥으로 구성된 3 차원 세포담체를 제작 하였다. 제작 된 세포담체의 물리적 및 생물학적 성질을 비교 연구하기 위해, 본 연구에서는 매끄러운 가닥을 대조물로 사용하였다. 나노 에칭된 표면은 초기 세포 부착, 증식 및 골 형성 분화와 같은 세포 활동에 영향을 미쳤다.

In order to enhance pore ratio and durability, media-type algal bloom inhibition chemical was manufactured from powder form. The results showed that the media increased effective contact time between the water to be treated and the effective components in the chemical, and thus, chemical dose and sludge production were significantly reduced.

The adaptability of earthworm casts produced form the waste sludge of pulp and paper plants for a biocarrier used in the advanced wastewater treatment was investigated. Removal efficiencies of nutrients in the activated sludge technology without carrier were compared with those treated with carrier made of casts under the different conditions such as the composition of the input and kinds of carrier. When the waste water was treated in the activated sludge technology without carriers, removal efficiencies of T-P and T-N were average values of 31% and 52%, respectively. On the contrary, pellet type carrier and pack type carrier increased the removal efficiencies of T-P and T-N by 1.3~1.4 and 1.9~2.0 times, respectively. At the same time, the high removal of T-P and T-N were observed irrespective of the types of carrier in which many kinds of microorganisms were grown. The difference in the removal efficiencies of BOD and COD between the treatment with and without carrier was negligible. According to this research, the carrier made of casts was thought to be highly applicable in the advanced wastewater treatment.

The microbial immobilization media with curdlan and activated carbon which has great immobilization capacity has been developed. Characteristics of porosity and mechanical strength of this support media are dependent on manufacturing method. The support media showed the best cell immobilization performance when the ratio of curdlan and activated carbon was 30 g/L to 6 g/L in this study. The immobilization of iron-oxidizing bacteria on the supporting particles was photographed with a scanning electron microscope. Since cell concentration on the surface of supporting particle increased with the reaction time, the iron oxidation rate also increased.

제주도 스코리아를 biofilter 충전 담체로 사용한 경우에 초산에틸 및 부틸알콜에 대한 최대제거용량이 각각 180 g/m3/hr, 171 g/m3/hr로 얻어졌다. 이러한 결과는 타 연구들이 사용한 담체들에서 얻어진 제거용량 결과와 비교할 때 우수한 결과로써, 이는 제주도 스코리아가 biofilter의 담체로서 활용 가능성을 보여 주는 것으로 사료된다.

고분자 촉매 담체인 스티렌-디비닐벤젠의 제조시 중합반응 개시제의 함량에 따른 영향과 반응기의 재질에 따른 영향을 수소흡착실험을 통하여 확인하였다. 담체의 중합반응시 제조조건이 동일하다 할지라도 개시제의 함량에 따라서 담체의 기공 특성이 달라지므로 개시제의 함량은 모노머 양의 1%를 사용한 시료가 수소흡착능이 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 반응기의 재질은 teflon으로 직접 제조한 것보다는 teflon으로 코팅 처리한 것이 더 수소흡착능이 좋은 것으로 확인되었다.

This study was performed to evaluate the removal effects of nutritive salts and organic pollutants in experimental aeration reactor for treatment of piggery slurry. In this study, three types of reactors were manufactured and operated. The fibrous media was equipped in one of three reactors. Another reactor was equipped with the siliceous media and the other reactor used as a control was equipped with typical aeration system only. Treatment efficacy of three types of reactors were evaluated according to the pollutants removal rate of the piggery slurry. The results obtained in this study are as follows : 1) In the reactor containing fibrous media, the removal efficiency of BOD, T-N and T-P was 11%, 13.9% and 21.2%, respectively. 2) In the reactor containing siliceous media, the removal efficiency of BOD, T-N and T-P was 6.9%, 25.3% and 47.8%, respectively. 3) In the reactor not containing media, the removal efficiency of BOD. T-N and T-P was 6.1%, 8.1.% and 23.6%, respectively. 4) Sludge accumulation in the reactor equipped with filamentous media was lower than that of other experimental reactors.
