This research was undertaken to evaluate the feasibility of lanthanum hydroxide for fluoride removal from aqueous solutions. A batch sorption experiments were conducted to study the influence of various factors such as pH, contact time, initial fluoride concentration and temperature on the sorption of fluoride on lanthanum hydroxide. The optimum fluoride removal was observed in the $pH_{eq}{\leq}8.8$. Sorption equilibrium of fluoride on lanthanum hydroxide was better described by the Freundlish isotherm model than by the Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption energy obtained from D-R model was 9.21 kJ/mol indicating an ion-exchange process as primary adsorption mechanism. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model described well the experimental kinetic data. Thermodynamic parameters such as ${\Delta}Go^{\circ}$, ${\Delta}H^{\circ}$ and ${\Delta}S^{\circ}$ indicated that the nature of fluoride sorption is spontaneous and endothermic. The used lanthanum hydroxide could be regenerated by washing with NaOH solution. Also, the results applied to real ground water indicate that fluoride selectivity and removal capacity of lanthanum hydroxide were superior to those of PA anion-exchange resin.

Morphological characteristics, developmental period, and seasonal occurrence of Adeia leucomelas (L.) were investigated from 1999 to 2000. In addition, consumption of sweetpotato as food was also examined. Adults of A. leucomelas were dark-brown and body lengths of females and males were 20.2 mm and 18.9 mm, respectively, Wing expanse of female and male was 33.7 mm and 29.4mm, respectively. Egg was flat round-shape. Larva was light yellow-green to dark-brown with 3.3-53.5 mm. Pupa was deep-brown and 15.1 mm in length. Developmental periods of A. leucomelas from egg to adult emergence at different temperatures of 15, 20, 25, and 30$^{\circ}$C were 108.5, 70.7, 40.2, and 29.1 days, respectively, Developmental threshold (DT) and effective accumulative temperatures were estimated as 10.7$^{\circ}$C and 67.5 DD in egg stage, 11.0$^{\circ}$C and 275.1 DD in larval stage and 9.3$^{\circ}$C and 244.6 DD in pupal stage, respectively. The longevity of adult female was shortened with increment of temperature, whereas the total numbers of eggs laid by a female were increased. The larvae of A.leucomelas occurred from mid-June to early October, and population reached its peak during early to mid-September in Jeonbuk province. Food consumption of A. leucomelas was highest at 20-25$^{\circ}$C. Food consumption of 1 st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th larvae of A. leucomelas per day at 25$^{\circ}$C was 0.4, 3.6, 19.6, 40.7, and 78.9 $\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively.

This study aimed to provide the basic data to establish measures for the management of the public toilets and reduction of the offensive odor through the air dilution olfactory method and instrumental analysis about offensive odor dilution rate of public toilets, focusing on the Dong-gu, Daejeon Metropolitan City, Korea. The offensive odor intensities ranged from 10 degree to 669 degrees in the urinal toilets and from 31 to 464 in closet bowl toilets. Meanwhile, toilets that had offensive odor of more than 2.5, of which a civil complaint can be filed, were researched 6 (33%). Offensive odor intensities were different according to the closet bowl toilets of the flush, fermented and conventional methods and the year of their installation, but not according to the area of the toilets. As a result of the instrumental analysis targeting 6 public toilets to identify the offensive odor substance, the maximal concentration of $NH_3$ was 2.04 ppm and the average concentration was 0.67 ppm, but $H_2S$, $CH_3SH$ and $(CH_3)_3N$ were not detected. In the fermented and conventional public toilets were not soaps, air fresheners and wastebaskets. Just 50% of the flush toilets had toilet tissue.

In this study an optimization of the preparation conditions of activated carbon with a ternary metal ion material to treat $H_2S$, which is classified as a representative odor substance, was carried out. For a metal ion material for enhancing the adsorption performance of hydrogen sulfide, performance enhancement was confirmed by combining Li and Fe or a ternary combination (K, Li, Fe) based on KI, which is a substance promoting hydrogen sulfide adsorption performance. Also, it was determined by XRD analysis that the reaction of each active substance with $H_2S$ was because of binding. The adsorption performance increased more than 3 times with heat treatment of the adsorbent with nitrogen compared with heat treatment with air. The maximum adsorption constant ($q_m$) value of the optimum adsorbent was 97.07, which is 6 times higher than that of the existing K-based impregnated activated carbon. It was confirmed that the objective adsorption amount ($0.3g\;g^{-1}$) was secured by an equilibrium between the mass transfer rate and adsorption rate. From the results, it was confirmed that the performance improvement was noticeable even when activated carbon with a reagent grade activated carbon particle size was modified. It was confirmed that the adsorption performance exists at high relative humidity levels of 60 and 100%, and the optimized preparation can be applied to a wet process such as a scrubber downstream.

새만금 종합개발계획(정부, 2011)에 따른 내부개발의 완료시점은 2030년이며, 방수제 공사와 준설 등과 같이 만경강 및 동진강 유역 내 흐름을 변화시킬 수 있는 공사를 포함하고 있으므로 현재와 2030년의 하천 및 호의 수리특성은 다를 것이라 예상된다. 2030년까지 준설상황 등을 예측하여 반영하는 것은 사실상 불가능하기 때문에 새만금 종합개발계획에서 제시하고 있는 내부개발의 완료시점을 기준으로 홍수사상을 모의하였다. 새만금 호의 물리적인 변화는 수리특성의 변화로 이어질 수 있으며, 이는 상류지역으로 전파가 될 수 있으므로 호내 뿐만 아니라 만경강과 동진강 전역에 대한 홍수시의 수리특성을 검토하였다. 새만금 호와 연결된 만경강과 동진강의 설계홍수량은 대부분의 구간에서 100년 빈도이기 때문에 본 연구에서는 100년 빈도 홍수사상에 대한 분석을 기초로 홍수위 검토를 수행하였고, RCP8.5 시나리오를 적용한 100년 빈도 홍수량과 500년 빈도 홍수량에 대한 추가적인 연구를 수행하였으며, 이 결과를 토대로 취약지구 분석 및 대책 등을 제시하였다. 수치모의는 Delft3D를 이용하였으며, 새만금 유역의 동진강 지구의 실측치와 비교함으로써 모델의 적용성을 검증하였다. 서해안 조위 특성상 새만금 방조제는 조위 영향이 크므로, 이에 본 연구에서는 외조위의 특성을 고려하기 위해 새만금 유역 주변의 12개 조화상수(tidal harmonic constant)를 이용하여 조위에 대한 모의를 별도로 수행하고, 이 결과를 배수갑문의 경계조건으로 이용하였다. 상류 경계조건은 하천기본계획상에 제시된 하천은 이를 이용하였으며, 그 외의 소하천은 유역면적을 이용한 계산법을 사용하여, 선형적 면적 비유량(Specific Discharge, SD) 방법을 적용하여 본류의 유량에 부가하는 방식으로 수행하였다. 수치해석 결과, 준설 구간의 수위는 전반적으로 저하되었으며, 거리에 따른 수면의 경사를 분석한 결과 기존의 하천구역이 준설 등으로 인하여 호수의 특성으로 변화된 것으로 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 취약지구는 홍수위가 제방고의 약 80% 이상 되는 지역으로 결정하였으며, 이를 토대로 취약지구 분석을 수행한 결과 기존 100년 빈도에서 1지점, RCP 8.5 시나리오가 적용된 100년 빈도에서 88지점, 500년 빈도에서 125지점이 잠재적인 치수 위험이 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 기존의 1차원 연구결과와는 차이가 있는 부분은, 다수의 취약지구가 만곡부 또는 합류부 인근에 위치한 것이다. 향후 이러한 상대적인 치수 취약지점에 대해 정밀하고 국부적인 연구를 수행하여 정확한 홍수위 예측을 수행해야 할 것이다.

This experiment was conducted to elucidate the effect of the midsummer drainage times on lodging characters, field lodging and yield in direct seeding rice culture in puddled soil. Dongjinbyeo was seeded at May 11 by seeding machine with 4cm of furrow depth and drained, one（50days after seeding DAS）） two （30DAS and 50DAS）, and three times （30DAS, and 50DAS and 60DAS）. The results are as follows. Culm length was shorten and the wall of N3, N4 were thicken as the drain-age times were increased. As the drainage times were increased breaking weights were increased but the lodging index were decreased. Lodging was occurred seriousely at none drainage, but wasn't occurred two or three times drainage. Yield was higher at 1~2 times drainage compared with none and three times drainage. Therefore, two times midsummer drainage is recommend-able water management method for direct seeding rice culture in puddled soil.

1) The decrease in strength of Raschel twines at Raschel joints is regarded to be due mainly to the frictional force between yarns and the unbalanced tensile distribution by the deformation of the joints. The rate of the decrease is about $13\%$ in lengthwise pull and 22 to $26\%$ in breadthwise pull. 2) The 3-course joint is less in deformation and stronger than the 2-course joint in all cases of pulls. 3) The variation of Raschel joint strength $T_R$ with the angle $\varphi$ between the adjacent bars is expressed as $T_R=T_{R0}-k\varphi$ where $T_{R0}$ is the strength at $\varphi=0^{\circ}$ and K is a constant. 4) The tensile strength ${\sigma}R$ and tile breaking energy $E_R$ of Raschel netting are given by $${\sigma}R=KN\;or\;${\sigma}R=T_RN$$ and $$E_R=AN$$ respectively, where N is the number of meshes at the pulling side, and K and A are constants. But the breaking energy of the netting is almost constant independent of tile variation of N. 5) The Raschel netting with some bars cut already breaks from tile joints of the bars next to the cut bars and its tensile strength, breaking energy, and breaking elongation decrease largily even if only one bar is in already cut state. 6) The tearing strength of Raschel netting is almost equal to the tensile strength of its single joint pulled by two bars. 7) The twisted joint is much more excellent in strength than the knot or the Raschel joint. The knot strength is 69 to $76\%$, and the Raschel joint strength is 71 to $74\%$ in lengthwise pull and 62 to $67\%$ in breadthwise pull, respectively, of the twisted joint strength.

The experimental study was made to propose the treatment method of wastewater in the high-density fish culture system. The BOD to COD ratios of effluents were almost same to 0.65 in the eel-farm, but were various in the farm rearing together with tilapia etc. A BOD rate curve of the eel-farm effluent could be described mathematically by the equation, $BODu=14.1(1-10^{-0.222t})+30.9(1-10^{-0.035(t-8)})$. Nitrification in Biological Fluidized Bed(BFB) system to treat the fish-farm wastewater could be reduce ammonium level up to $65{\sim}79\%$ when ammonium loading rates were between 0.014 and 0.075g $NH_4/g$ BVS-day. Nitrification efficiency was decreased by organic matters in the wastewater when ammonium loading was low(0.014 g $NH_4/g$ BVS-day). T-N removal ratios were decreased to increase loading in denitrification process, because of low C/N ratio. Based on much higher biological mass concentrations, BFB system takes many advantages of a practical viewpoint, such as stability of treatment efficiency and reduction of necessary site area for the facility, as compared with conventional treatment systems.
