Apple Marssonina blotch, caused by Diplocarpon mali, which has been increasing on apple trees and become one of the most serious diseases on apple trees in Korea since the begining of 1990's. In this study, ecology of Marssonina blotch including disease incidence and spore dispersals was surveyed from 1992 to 1995 in Kyungpook, and factors influencing the incidence of the disease were analyzed. Marssonina blotch began to occur on apple leaves in June and was observed commonly in most of apple orchards after August, and increased rapidly in September. The incidence of this disease was high at the year of low temperature and a lot of precipitation. The conidia discharge began to occur in May and continued to October, and the peak period of spore release was in August and usually more than 70% of total spore release of the year released from August to September. The incidence of the disease was high in the northern and mountain are as such as Yeongjoo, Chungsong, Andong, and relatively low in the southern areas such as Kunwi, Yongchon. Jonathan cultivar was the most susceptible to Marssonina blotch, and Jonagold, Sekaiichi was secondly susceptible and the next Fuji was more susceptible than Tsugaru. The incidence of the disease was relatively high in orchards which cultivation management of irrigation, drainage, air circulation, fertilization, and fungicide spraying were poor.

일반적으로 대기 중 환경기준을 제어하기 위해서는 각 배출원에서 발생되는 오염물질의 배출강도를 정량적으로 평가 할 필요가 있다. 최근 들어, 휘발성 유기화합물질의 환경학적 중요성이 밝혀지면서 이 물질에 대한 대기 중 농도분포는 어떤 양상을 보이며 이에 영향을 미치는 각 배출원에서 비산배출(fugitive emission)되는 VOCs 종류와 농도에 대한 조사가 필요하게 되었다. VOCs 배출원은 모든 국가가 유사하겠으나 배출원별 VOCs의 배출기여도는 각국의 경제 및 산업구조의 특성에 따라 달라질 수 있다. (중략)

The spherical artificial aggregates (AAs) with a diameter of 8 mm, which contains fly ashes discharged from the fluidized bed combustion in a thermal power plant and clay were manufactured by direct sintering method at $1050{\sim}1250^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes. The effect of fly ash contents on the bloating phenomenon in the AAs was analyzed. The AAs containing fly ash of the amount under 50 wt% showed the black-coring and bloating phenomena. The AAs containing fly ash of the amount over 5Owt%, however, the specific gravity was increased and the color of specimens fully changed to black. These color change phenomena were caused from the formation of FeO by the reduction reaction of almost $Fe_2O_3$ component by the excessive reducing atmosphere formed simultaneously with the rapid emission of the gases generated from the high contents of unburned carbon of with increasing the added fly ash amount. Specific gravity was decreased as fly ash contents increased in the case of sintering at the same temperature condition. Water absorption of all specimens except of the specimens containing 10 wt% fly ashes decreased with increasing sintering temperature. These were because a liquid phase was formed as the increasing the sintering temperature. In the case of the specimens manufactured in this study containing fly ashes discharged from the fluidized bed combustor in a the thermal power plant and 10~90 wt% of clay, the specific gravity was 0.9~1.8 and the water absorptivity was 8~60%, therefore it is considered that those results can be applied to the light or heavy aggregates.

The total amount of ash generated from the municipal solid waste incineration(MSWI) in Korea was approximately 420,000 tons in 2005 including 68,000 tons of fly ash. Fly ash from MSWI generally contains high amount of CaO (upto ${\sim}50%$) due to the treatment of flue gas by spraying CaO-base materials. Currently, most of fly ash generated is finally ended up with specially designed landfill sites and only less then 20% of fly ash is recycled. In the present work, preparation of $CaCO_3$ from the MSWI ny ash was studied to promote the fly ash recycling. Fly ash obtained from the dust collector in stoker-type MSWI is used to selectively dissolve CaO by using the sugar solution. Then, $CO_2$ gas was passed through the dissolved solution to pro- duce $CaCO_3$ powder. The optimum conditions for CaO dissolution were solid content 10%, reaction time 15 minutes, sugar concentration $10{\sim}15%\;and\;pH\;10.5{\sim}11.0$. The high grade $CaCO_3$ powder was obtained and the experimental conditions are also discussed.

Among the oriental medicine compounds, sulfur is known as a heat-generation material in a human body. Heat-generation reaction results in the consumption of energy source. Some oriental herbs are used to treat obesity and blood lipid composition. Therefore, we hypothesized that a sulfur containing oriental medicine compound, called as Hangbisan, could help weight loss of experimental rats. This study was designed to observe the change of weight of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats that had been fed with high-fat diet containing 10% cellulose or Hangbisan for 9 weeks. Hangbisan affected the weight loss of rats as reducing the level of plasma cholesterol and triglyceride and increasing the level of HDL-cholesterol. Thus, this study revealed Hangbisan have an anti-obesity effect and a potential role for anti-obesity agent in the application of oriental medicine compounds.

Among oriental medicine, sulfur is known to generate heat in the human body. Since body warming reaction results in the consumption of energy source, the medicines containing sulfur could help in the weight loss of laboratory rats. This study was designed to determine the possible weight loss effects of Hangbisan, sulfur based oriental medicine, on ob/ob mice. The obese mice were fed with standard diet containing 10% (w/w) Hangbisan or 10% (w/w) cellulose during 12 weeks. Hangbisan affected the weight loss of obese mice as cellulose did during experimental periods, while also reducing the level of plasma total cholesterol. These results suggest that dietary Hangbisan improved the composition of blood profiles in obese mice, and therefore has potential as an anti-obesity ingredient in the application of oriental medicine compounds.

In an attempt to obtain a basic information to develop methods of an effective chemical control and disease forecasting of panicle blast of rice, effects of conidial number of the causal fungus, Pyricularia oryzae, collected in different periods and the rate of leaf blast occurrence on the occurrence of panicle blast were investigated. Conidial number the fungus collected in 5 days before and after heading date were closely related with panicle blast occurrence. But no relationship was obtained between the occurrence rate of leaf blast and that of panicle blast. Considering the incubation period of the disease, we presume that the most effective application periods of chemicals are 5-10 days and 10-15 days before heading, when immediate effective chemicals and slow effective chemicals are applied, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to enhance the mechanical strength of specimens containing fly ash from fluidized bed type boiler, which the recycling rate will be eventually increased. Specimens containing fly ash in a certain portion were made and aged for 3, 14, and 28 days. Specimens were carbonated under the supercritical condition at $40^{\circ}C$. The carbonation process under the supercritical condition was performed to enhance the mechanical property of specimens by filling the voids and cracks existing inside cement specimen with $CaCO_3$ reactants. The additional aging effect after the supercritical carbonation process on mechanical strength of specimens was also investigated by comparing the compressive strength with and without 7 day extra aging. Under the supercritical condition and additional 7 day aging specimens were very effective for enhancement of mechanical strength and compressive strength increased by 44 %.
