In order to investigate the effect of n-heptane mixing on PAH and soot formation, small amount of n-heptane has been mixed in counterflow ethylene diffusion flame. Laser-induced incandescene and laser-induced fluorescene techniques were employed to measure soot volume fraction and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon(PAH) concentration, respectively. Results showed that the mixing of n-heptane in ethylene diffusion flame produces more PAHs and soot than those of pure ethylene flame. However, signals of LIF for 20% n-heptane mixture flame were lower than that of pure ethylene flame. It can be considered that the enhancement of PAH and soot formation by the n-heptane mixing of ethylene can be explained by methyl($CH_3$) radical in the low temperature region. And it can be found that reaction rate of H radical for 10% n-heptane plays a crucial role for benzene formation.

The aqueous solutions of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons have been studied on the basis of the significant structure theory of liquid water proposed by Jhon, et al. The thermodynamic properties such as Helmholtz free energy, internal energy entropy, and heat capacity have been calculated. The results show good agreements with the experiments in the literature.

Bacterial stain 3Y was isolated from a site that was contaminated with diesel for more than 15 years. The strain could grow on various petroleum using hydrocarbons as the sole carbon source. The strain grew not only on aliphatic hydrocarbons but also on aromatic hydrocarbons. 3Y grew on aliphatic petroleum hydrocarbons hexane or hexadecane, and aromatic petroleum hydrocarbons BTEX, phenol, biphenyl, or phenanthrene. The strain showed aromatic ring dioxygenase and meta-cleavage dioxygenase activities as determined by tests using indole and catechol. Aromatic ring dioxygenase is involved in the initial step of biodegradation of aromatic hydrocarbons while meta-cleavage dioxygenase catalyzes the cleavage of the benzene ring. Based on a nucleotide sequence analysis of its 16S rRNA gene, 3Y belongs to the genus Sphingomonas. A phylogenetic tress was constructed based on the nucleotide sequences of closest relatives of 3Y and petroleum hydrocarbon degrading sphingomonads. 3Y was in a cluster that was different from the cluster that contained well-known sphingomonads. The results of this study suggest that 3Y has the potential to cleanup oil-contaminated sites. Further investigation is warranted to optimize conditions to degrade petroleum hydrocarbons by the strain to develop a better bioremediation strategy.

Laboratory-scale experiments were conducted to assess the effect of oxidative decomposition of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in field soil using peroxy-acid. The study soil texture is sandy soil containing 19.2 % of organic matter at pH 6.8. Among polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the study soil, the concentration of benzo(a)pyrene is 2.23 mg/kg which is three times higherthan the Korea standard level. Therefore benzo(a)pyrene was selected as the target study PAH for the treatment by peroxy-acid oxidation using peroxy-acid coupled with hydrogen peroxide, and the efficiency of the oxidative decomposition of benzo(a)pyrene was assessed for the different organic acids and dosages of an organic acid and hydrogen peroxide. Propionic acid among the tested organic acids showed the highest efficiency of benzo(a)pyrene reduction in the peroxyacid oxidation treatment and finally satisfied the Korea standard level.

The objective of this study is to prepare bead-type and pellet-type Pt (1 wt%)/Kieselguhr catalysts as hydrogenation catalysts for the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) included in pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO). The optimal reaction temperature to maximize the yield of saturated cyclic hydrocarbons during the PFO-cut hydrogenation reaction in a trickle bed reactor was determined to be 250 ℃. A hydrogen/PFO-cut flow rate ratio of 1800 was found to maximize 1-ring saturated cyclic compounds. The yield of saturated cyclic compound increased as the space velocity (LHSV) of PFO-cut decreased. The difference in hydrogenation reaction performance between the pellet catalyst and the bead catalyst was negligible. However, the catalyst impregnated by Pt after molding the Kieselguhr support (AI catalyst) showed higher hydrogenation activity than the catalyst molded after Pt impregnation on the Kieselguhr powder (BI catalyst), which was a common phenomenon in both the pellet catalysts and bead catalysts. This may be due to a higher number of active sites over the AI catalyst compared to the BI catalyst. It was confirmed that the pellet catalyst prepared by the AI method had the best reaction activity of the prepared catalysts in this study. The majority of the PFO-cut hydrogenation products were cyclic hydrocarbons ranging from C₈ to C₁₅, and C₁₁ cyclic hydrocarbons had the highest distribution. It was confirmed that both a cracking reaction and hydrogenation occurred, which shifted the carbon number distribution towards light hydrocarbons.

다환방향족탄화수소(PAHs)는 해수환경에서 가장 일반적인 오염물질로 다양한 관점에서 모니터링되고 있다. PAHs는 수중에서는 콜로이드상태 또는 부유물질에 흡착되어 저질로 축적되지만, 먹이연쇄를 통하여 수중 동물에 축적되어 생리작용에 영향을 준다(Baumard et al., 1999). 수중 생물이 이러한 Xenobiotic에 노출되면 면역기능에 의해 통제되어, ROS 발생량이 증가하고 여러 가지 효소분비가 감소되는 것으로 알려져 있다(Anderson et at., 1994). (중략)

본 논문에서는 cytochrome P450 LA1 유전자의 5'-upsteam 조절부위의 클로닝을 실시하였다. pUC19 vector에 연결시킨 3.4 Kb 크기의 Pstl DNA조각을 Sst1, Nco1 제한 효소로 자른 뒤, Exonuclease III 를 처리하여 약 200bp 씩의 차이를 갖는 여러 크기의 plasmid들을 얻었다. 이 plasmid 의 핵산서열을 알아보기 위해 dideoxy nucletide를 이용한 sequencing방법으로 그 핵산서열의 결정 실험을 시도하였다. 또한, 다환상 방향족 탄화수소 화합물에 반응성을 갖는 C57BL/6N 생쥐와 반응성을 갖지않는 DBA/2N 생쥐에 있어 phase II 대사 효소인UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 효소활성에 대한 3-methylcholanthrene의 영향을 알아보기 위해 C57BL/6N 생쥐와 DBA/2N 생쥐에 각각 다른 농도의 3-methylcholanthrene을 처리하거나 각기 다른 시간에 3-methylcholanthrene를 처리하였다. 그 결과 UDP-glucuronosyl-transferase의 mRNA가 3-methylcholanthrene양의 증가에 따라, 처치시간이 길어짐에 따라 증가되어지며 그 mRNA위 크기는 약 2.2Kb 정도임을 알았다. 이로부터 UDP-ghucuronosyltransferase 또한 cytochrome P45O와 함께 다환상 방향족 탄화수소 화합물 조절인자를 통한 조절을 받을 것이며 phase I phase II 약물 대사 효소가 조절상 밀접한 관련을 가짐을 예측할 수 있었다.
