A microorganism capable of degrading toluene was isolated from crude oil contaminated soil and identified as Pseudomonas fluorescence. The effects of environmental factors on the degradation of toluene were investigated. The optimum temperature for toluene degradation was $30^{\circ}C$ and the maximum specific cell growth and toluene degradation rates were $0.76hr^{-1}$ and $0.36hr^{-1}$, respectively. Although the wild cells were not able to degrade toluene at $10^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$, the cells adapted to toluene at $30^{\circ}C$ degraded 100mg/L of toluene completely at $10^{\circ}C$ and 80% of the toluene at $40^{\circ}C$. The wild cells were not able to degrade more than 200mg/L of toluene but the toluene-adapted cells degraded up to 300mg/L of toluene. Although the optimum pH was 7.0, the degradation rates were not much different in the range of 5.5 to 9.0. When nitrate was used as a nitrogen source instead of ammonium, the adaptation period became longer by 2~10 hours and the cell growth yield became lower by 45%. The toluene degradation rates after adaptation period, however, were almost same in both cases. The observations in this study will be used in the future biofilter design and operation.

Quantitative risk analysis has been performed for a pervaporation process for production of high test peroxide. Potential main accidents are explosion and fire caused by a decomposition reaction. As the target process has a laboratory scale, the consequence is considered to belong to Category 3. An event tree has been developed as a model for occurrence of a decomposition reaction in the target process. The probability functions of the accident causes have been established based on the frequency data of similar events. Using the constructed model, the failure rate has been calculated. The result indicates that additional safety devices are required in order to achieve an acceptable risk level, i.e. an accident frequency less than $10^{-4}/yr$. Therefore, a layer of protection analysis has been applied. As a result, it is suggested to introduce inherently safer design to avoid catalytic reaction, a safety instrumented function to prevent overheating, and a relief system that prevents explosion even if a decomposition reaction occurs. The proposed method is expected to contribute to developing safety management systems for various chemical processes including concentration of hydrogen peroxide.

A range of techniques have been being developed to remove the volatile organic compounds from paining processes. High temperature decomposition of harmful VOCs using arc plasma has recently been proposed, and this work analyzed the extreme hot process by computer-aided fluid dynamics prior to the reactor design. Numerical simulations utilized the conservation equations of mass and momentum. The simulation showed that the fluid flowed down along the inner surface of the centrifugal reactor by forming intensive spiral trajectories. Although the high temperature gas generated by plasma influences the bottom of the reactor, no heat transfer in radial direction appeared. The decomposition efficiency of a typical VOCs, toluene, was found to be a maximum of 67% across the reactor, which was similar to the value (approximately 70%) for the lab-scale test.

The realization of the avoidance, decrease and utilization of waste can be made through reduction of resource consumption during product production and use. Beside that it is desirable to regain the resource attached to products and components. The same resources can be much used in product and mater all cycle through their reuse and regeneration In order to improve the use productivity of resource the disassembly make up the substantial prerequisite. In this paper a model describing the disassembly sequence structure is introduced under consideration of the influential facts related to disassembly process planning rules for disassembly sequence planning are derived from that.

Waste newspaper is many part of Municipal Solid Waste(MSW). Newspaper consist of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin which biomass components. We could get various compound usable as fuel when pyrolysis of lignin. Therefore, we should get similar phenomena with pyrolysis of newspaper. Highest conversion rate when acetone was used as pyrolysis solvent was $350 {\sim}400^{\circ}C$, $40{\sim}50$minutes.

A series of experiments were conducted for modeling the fate and effect of the coupled oxidation reduction reaction of ethanol and propionate recognized as important intermediates in anaerobic degradation metabolism. Anaerobic kinetics for conversion of propionate and the interaction with ethanol were investigated using the model of specific substrate priority utilization effect. Seed cultures for the experiment were obtained from an anaerobically enriched steady-state propionate master culture reactor (HPr-MCR), ethanol-propionate master culture reactor (EtPr-MCR) and glucose master culture reactor (Glu-MCR). Experiments were consisted of four phases. Phase I, II and III were conducted by fixing the propionate organic loading as 1.0 g COD/L with increasing ethanol loading of 0, 100, 200, 400 and 1,000 mg/L, to find metabolic interaction of ethanol and propionate degradation by each enriched anaerobic culture. In phase IV, different mixing ratios of Glu-MCR and HPr-MCR cultures with fixed propionate organic loading, 1.0 g COD/L, were applied to observe the propionate degradation metabolic behavior. In the results of this study, different pathways of propionate and ethanol conversion were found using a modified competitive inhibition kinetic model. Increase of $K_{s2}$ value reflected the formation of acetate followed by ethanol degradation. In addition. $K_3$ value was increased slightly as the reactions of acetate formation and degradation were occurred in acetoclastic methanogenesis.

가금류의 도축 부산물로 대량 배출되고 있는 우모는 주로 생물학적으로 난분해성 단백질인 케라틴으로 구성되어 있다. 따라서 물리화학적 처리에 의하여 우모를 처리하고 있으나 이 방법은 환경오염을 유발한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 환경친화적 우모 분해 공정을 개발하고, 우모 분해산물의 식물 성장을 위한 비료로서의 가치를 평가하기 위하여 퇴비화 볏짚에서 케라틴 분해효소 생성능이 우수한 균주인 RS7을 분리하였다. RS7의 생화학적 특성과 16S rDNA의 염기 서열을 분석하여 동정한 결과, Bacillus pumilus RS7로 동정되었다. B. pumilus RS7은 $30^{\circ}C$에서 배양 5일 만에 우모를 완전히 분해할 수 있었다. 본 균주에 의한 우모 분해산물은 Helianthus sannuus L.의 생장율, 잎 수 증가량, 개화율, 건조 생체량에 있어 대조군과 화학적 우모 분해산물보다 우수하였다. Bacillus pumilus RS7에 의한 우모 분해산물은 식물 성장 촉진을 위한 미생물기원 비료로써의 역할을 수행할 수 있었으며, 이에 따라 양계산업에서 배출되는 우모 폐기물이 환경에 주는 악영향을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 예측된다.

최근 산업폐수의 수질오염에 대한 국민적 관심이 높아지면서 정부의 배출수 수질기준강화 및 배출부과금의 인상 등으로 기업의 폐수처리에 관한 인식이 상당히 달라졌다. 기존의 폐수처리는 각공정에서 발생되는 폐수는 종합적으로 수집하여 처리하는 소위 END OF PIPE 처리방법이 대부분이며 산화/환원, 응집/침전, 미생물분해, 여과 등이 주로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 END OF PIPE 처리방식에서는 소량이지만 처리가 어렵거나 독성이 강한 물질이 일부분의 공정에서 발생되어도 분리처리되지 않고 전체적으로 합쳐지므로 처리시설이 복잡하고 규모도 커진다. 따라서 최근의 폐수처리는 각 생산공정에서 발생되는 폐수를 소규모의 처리시설로 처리하기 어려운 소량의 오염물질을 제거하거나 유효성분일 경우 회수하여 재활용하는 방향으로 연구가 진행되고 있다.
