최근 석유공급 불안정성과 이산화탄소 배출 규제 움직임에 대응하기 위한 수단으로 바이오연료의 공급이 전세계적으로 증가하고 있다. 이와 같은 바이오디젤의 보급 활성화는 식물성 기름의 가격 상승과 수급 불안정 문제, 그리고 식량자원과의 충돌 문제를 야기하고 있다. 국내 바이오디젤 생산 원료로 사용되는 대두, 유채, 해바라기, 팜 등은 모두 식용시장과 수급 균형을 형성하고 있어 바이오디젤의 생산이 증가하게 되면 식용 오일 시장의 수급균형이 깨져 오일곡물 가격의 변동을 초래하게 될 것이다. 과거에는 수거비용을 들여 폐기하던 폐식용유 마저 이제는 돈을 주고 구입해야하는 실정에 다다랐다. 바이오디젤 생산비의 70~80%를 차지하는 원료유의 부족 현상에 따라 바이오디젤 업계에서는 soapstock, trapped grease, 폐식용유 등의 저급유지 활용 방안을 강구하고 있으며 자트로파와 같은 비식용 작물의 해외플랜테이션도 진행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 커피찌거기에 남아 있는 오일을 속슬렛추출장치를 이용해 추출하고 전이에스테르화 반응을 수행하여 반응 특성과 커피오일 바이오디젤의 지방산 조성을 알아보고 바이오디젤 원료유로서의 사용가능성에 대해 알아보았다. 석유에테르를 용매로 속슬렛 추출장치를 이용해 추출시 원료대비 약 17%(w/w)의 오일을 추출할 수 있었다. 추출된 오일의 산가는 18.79mgKOH/g으로 매우 높아 직접 전이에스테르화 반응이 불가능하다. 고체 산 촉매 하에서 전처리 반응을 실시하여 유리지방산을 전환 제거한 후 염기촉매를 이용해 전이에스테르화 반응을 진행한 결과 약 80%의 바이오디젤(FAME) 함량을 얻을 수 있었다. 지방산 조성 분석 결과 리놀레익산(Linoleic acid, C18:2), 올레익산(Oleic acid, C18:1), 팔미틱산(Palmitic acid, C16:0)이 대부분을 차지하며 이 중에서도 리놀레익산이 44.17%로 가장 많은 함량을 보였다. 이는 커피찌꺼기 추출 오일이 바이오디젤 원료유로 활용 가능성을 나타내는 결과로, 색소성분 등의 불순물을 효율적으로 제거하여 증류정제 전단계에서의 바이오디젤 순도와 생산 수율을 증대시키기 위한 추가 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) that are carcinogenic and persistent will be restricted in consumer products from December 27, 2015 by EU REACH regulation. Pretreatment using Soxhlet extraction and quantitative analysis by GC-MS were studied to develop the method for analyzing 18 PAHs in consumer products as well as to detect the amounts and the kinds of PAHs in consumer products such as grips of a bag and a hammer, a cable and a plastic sandal. Linearity and precisions were evaluated by analyses of the standard PAH solutions ranging from 0.3125 mg/L to 5.00 mg of each of 18 PAHs. Linearity of resulting standard curves for all 18 PAHs were obtained with $R^2$ above 0.999. Precisions of the retention times and the peak areas were found to be 0.00%~0.05% and 1.16%~3.69% of relative standard deviations, respectively. The recoveries for spiked samples were all around 95%~105% after Soxhlet extration using three different solvents such as dichloromethane, hexane and toluene. The limits of quantitation for 18 PAHs in solutions and polymer samples by GC-MS were evaluated to be 0.327 mg/L (Benzo[ghi]perylene)~0.464 mg/L (Acenaphthylene) and 1.635 mg/kg (Benzo[ghi]perylene)~2.32 mg/kg (Acenaphthylene) based upon dilution factor of 5, respectively. Under the developed analytical method, only trace amounts of phenanthrene were detected in three samples while 15 kinds of PAHs including phenanthrene were detected in a grip of hammer with concentrations of maximum 83.4 mg/kg of Phenanthrene and minimum 8.5 mg/kg of Acenaphthylene. Further studies are needed to decrease the quantitation limit and to check the feasibility of decreasing Soxhlet time as well as to demonstrate cases that the clean up is required.

This study analyzed and standardized the harmful substances of organic compounds(dioxins) in disposable diapers for infant's clothing. Commercial samples obtained from Korea, Japan, America and German were determined by HRGC/HRMS. Experimental Methods were consisted of comparision of extracting solvent, analysis of PCDD/Fs, and analysis of PCDD/Fs of extraction in disposable diaper. The results were as follows. No high TEQ values in TCDD(1), PCDD(0.5) and HxCDD(0.1) were found for commercial disposable diapers from country Korea, Japan, U.S.A and German. In extraction for 6hrs experiments, HpCDD and OCDD were detected in disposable diapers of U1, U2 and G2, respectively. In extraction fur 24hrs experiments, HpCDD, OCDD and OCDF were detected in disposable diapers of J3, U1, U2 and U3. So we need to set standards of measurement for harmful materials contained in textile goods. This will make a safe and comfortable clothing environment for all users, regardless of age.

For the evaluation of brominated flame retardants included in polymeric electronic devices, we investigated the extraction methods and solvent systems for four different types of polymers of PC (polycarbonate), PP (polyropylene), PET (poly(ethylene terephthalate)) and PBT (poly(butylene terephthalate)) using different solvent systems of hexane/acetone, THF, toluene, and THF/toluene. In order to compare the extraction efficiency of different methods and solvent systems, the deca-BDE (decabromo diphenyl ether) flame retardant was included in PC, PP, PET and PBT systems and subsequently extracted by soxhlet, ultrasonic, accelerated solvent, microwave and supercritical fluid extraction methods. The amount of the extracted flame retardant was monitored to evaluate the extraction efficiency. The ultrasonic extraction method was found not to be acceptable as an extraction method for the polymer systems mainly due to a low salvation efficiency of the organic solvents. Soxhlet, accelerated solvent and microwave extraction methods exhibited over 80% of extraction efficiency for toluene. The supercritical fluid extraction method, which has been used as an extraction method for flame retardants in polymers, showed the extraction efficiencies of ca. 100% for PC and PP in the optimal extraction conditions of $60^{\circ}C$ and 120 bar.

This study was conducted to measure fat contents of potatochips by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Both potatochip powder and potatochips were used to find correlations between the absorbance at certain wavelengths find the fat contents. Based on the correlation analysis, linear regression models predicting the fat contents were developed to predict the fat contents. Artificial neural network (ANN) models were also developed. Predicted values were compared to the measured ones. The regression and the ANN model predicting the fat contents of potatochip powder had determination coefficients of 0.93 and 0.92, and standard errors of prediction (SEP) of 1.29% and 1.17%, respectively. The correlation analysis of potatochips showed that the determination coefficients were low. Therefore, the fat contents of not potatochips but potatochip powder could be measured by NIRS.

Limonene is orange flavored natural material that is mainly contained in mandarine and lemon peels. D-limonene was extracted from cold-storaged mandarine peel by using Soxhlet extractor at $120^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours with ethanol as solvent. Henry constants of d-limonene and impurity were calculated as $H_{Lim}=8.55$ and $H_{imp}=0.223$ from the result of HPLC analysis. 4-bed SMB of limonene simulation with $0.46{\times}25cm$ columns was conducted by using Aspen chromatography program. Then effective condition for purity was found by changing $m_2$ and $m_3$ values in triangle diagram. The highest purity was 98.59% at $m_2=2.57$, $m_3=9.55$. For this case, feed, desorbent, extract, and raffinate flow rates were 1 mL/min, 1.19 mL/min, 0.857 mL/min and 1.34 mL/min, respectively. Scale-up simulation was also conducted by increasing column diameter from 0.46 cm to 1.6 cm for getting the same efficiency. The increased flow rates were 12 mL/min, 14 mL/min, 10 mL/min, and 16 mL/min for feed, desorbent, extract, and raffinate. It was possible to scale-up with maintaining same limonene purity because linear isotherms of limonene and impurity were assumed.

As phthalates classified as toxic to reproduction category 2 and endocrine disrupting chemicals were more strictly regulated as Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) for authorization in under EU REACH and considered as priority substances in RoHS II, standardization of phthalate testing method is now being proposed in IEC 62321 of IEC TC 111 and the 2nd revision of KS M 1991 is also finished. In order to assist standardization activities related to phthalating testing, solvent extraction part of existing national standards were compared and verified. Recovery of DEHP (diethylhexyl phthalate) from PVC (polyvinyl chloride) by Soxhlet extraction increased in the order of methanol, toluene, dichloromethane and hexane from 46.9% to 95.3% as measured by GC-MS. Optimum extraction time was verified to be 6 hours using hexane. Recovery of DBP (dibutyl phthalate), BBP (butylbenzyl phthalate), and DEHP from different matrixes such as PVC, nitro cellulose, ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene). and EPDM(ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber were evaluated to be more than 90% up to 99%. The detection limits of phthalates in solvent extraction followed by GC-MS analysis were 0.08~0.3 ${\mu}g/mL$ in solution and 8~30 mg/Kg in polymeric samples. GC-MS analyses of phthalates were carried out using different solvent extraction based on the EN 14372, ASTM D 7083, Japanese test method (MHLW 0906-4) and KS M 1991, proving that equivalent recoveries ranging from 98%~99% were obtained. DBP and DEHP were detected in three consumer products such as a child toy, a power cable and manicure with the amount of 22~1,910 mg/kg.

A new effective and economic method was developed, removing interferences such as chlorophyll and lipid from leaves with small amounts of reagents and solvents in order to analyse PAHs(Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons). The extract from a soxhlet containing $4{\sim}5g$ of leaves and 100ml of dichlormethane and refluxed for 20 hrs was concentrated and eluted with 60ml of a hexane:dichloromethane (1:1) mixture through a column of 9mm wide inner diameter and 130mm long, packed from the bottom with 2.5g of $Al_2O_3$, 1.5g of $SiO_2$and 2g of anhydrous $Na_2SO_4$. The eluent was concentrated and loaded on a GPC column of 20mm wide inner diameter and 280mm long, packed with 12g of Bio-beads. The column was washed with 37ml of the hexane:dichloromethane(1:1) mixture. Another 43ml of the mixture was eluted as a PAH fraction and collected. This eluent was concentrated under gentle nitrogen to $50{\mu}l$ and analysed using GC-MS. The recoveries, obtained by comparing with the amounts of the internal standards of deuterated PAHs were $43.3{\sim}107.5%$(RSD $2.2{\sim}9.5%$).
