This experiment was carried out to investigate the changes of antioxidant enzymes activities in soybean leaves, exposed to 0.2ppm of ozone. We have investigated whether Eunhakong and Samnamkong may scavenge ozone induced activated oxygen species by invoking antioxidant enzymes such as ascorbate peroxidase(APOX), glutathione reductase(GR), monodehydroascorbate reductase(MDHAR), dehydroascorbate reductase(DHAR). Ozone exposure preferentially increased APOX, GR and MDHAR activities, whereas that of DHAR only decreased slowly. When soybean plans were fumigated with 0.2ppm of ozone, the levels of ascorbate and reduced glutathione decreased within a few hours. In eunhakong, which has, slightly a strong tolerance to ozone, was found to have higher antioxidants levels than samnamkong. However, there was no remarkable difference two cultivars in the activities of enzymes which protect plant against active oxygen species.

This study has attempted to use ozone for the treatment of skin diseases as research results that ozonated olive oil has an excellent therapeutic effect on skin diseases are known. However, there is hardly any accurate data in Korea. Usually, animal tests related to cosmetics are not performed, but toxicity tests were conducted because they were absolutely necessary. In general, there are not many cases of measuring actual data through animal tests for the purpose of confirming the performance of cosmetics, but in the case of toxicity tests, it is recommended to accurately measure skin reactions, so this experiment was conducted. In this experiment, in order to evaluate the skin irritation of ozonated oil (high concentration) on the rabbit, the test substance was applied to the back of the rabbit for 24 hours, and then mortality, general symptoms and skin irritation were evaluated. Experimental Results As a result of evaluating the treatment site of the test substance after a certain period of time, no skin irritation was observed in all animals.

This study was performed to delineate the removal phenol in solutions using of ozone, ozone/$H_2O_2$ and ozone/GAC. The disinfection by-product of phenol by ozonation, hydroquinone, was analyzed and it's control process was investigated. The followings are the conclusions that were derived from this study. 1. The removal efficiency of phenol by ozonation was 58.37%, 48.34%, 42.15%, and 35.41% which the initial concentration of phenol was 5 mg/l, 10 mg/l, 15 mg/l, and 20 mg/l, respectively. 2. The removal efficiency of phenol by ozonation was 42.95% at pH 4.0 and 69.39% at pH 10, respectively. The removal efficiencies were gradually increased, as pH values were increased. 3. With the ozone/$H_2O_2$ combined system, the removal efficiency of phenol was 72.87%. It showed a more complete degradation of phenol with ozone/$H_2O_2$ compared with ozone alone. 4. When ozonation was followed by filtration on GAC, phenol was completely removed. 5. Oxidation, if carried to completion, truly destroys the organic compounds, converting them to carbon dioxide. Unless reaction completely processed, disinfection by-products would be produced. To remove them, ozone/GAC treatment was used. The results showed that disinfection by-product of phenol by ozonation, hydroquinone, was completely removed. These results suggested that ozone/GAC should also be an appropriate way to remove phenol and its by-product.

휘발성 유기 화합물(Volatile organic compounds, VOCs)은 산업공정에서 유기 용제로 사용되며 수송, 저장 및 취급시 대기로 쉽게 방출된다. 또한 자동차 배출가스, 소각로, 쓰레기 매립장, 폐수 처리시설 및 일반 가정에서의 각종 연소 과정에서도 유출된다. VOCs 의 유출은 그 자체가 인체에 유해할 뿐 아니라, 대기 중에 배출되어 질소 산화물과 함께 광화학 반응을 일으킴으로서 오존 또는 알데히드와 같은 2차 오염물질을 생성시켜 오존층 파괴 및 지구 온난화, 산성비 등으로 지구 환경에 악영향을 초래하고 있다. (중략)

자동차 운행의 급증과 유류 및 유기 용제의 사용 확대로 인해 휘발성유기화합물질(Volatile Organic Compounds : VOC)의 배출은 증가추세에 있다. VOC는 오존 등 광화학스모그 원인 물질일 뿐만 아니라 발암성 등의 유해 물질, 지구온난화와 성층권 오존층 파괴의 원인물질, 대기 중 악취물질로서 환경 및 건강에 영향을 초래하여 VOC 대한 규제관리 및 감축에 대한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 상용화된 VOC 저감기술로는 고온산화, 촉매산화, 흡착 등의 방법이 있으며 이 기술들은 농도, 에너지 requirement, 비용 및 부산물 처리 등의 문제가 있다.

Ozone alone and catalytic ozone processes were introduced for treatment of humic acid, which is representative refractory organic compound. The treatment efficiencies of humic acid in each process were analyzed in pH variation, DOC removal, and $UV_{254}$ decrease. Mn loaded GAC catalyst was prepared by loading potassium permanganate onto the granular activated carbon surface. BCM-GAC and BCM-Silica gel catalyst were prepared by BCM. $UV_{254}$ decrease in all processes was comparatively high with efficiency over 87%. DOC removal in ozone/GAC process was the highest with 78%, and removal rates for other processes followed the order ozone/BCM-GAC(62%) > ozone/BCM-silica gel(45%) > ozone/silica gel(43%) > ozone/Mn Loaded GAC(42%) > ozone alone(37%).

UV/H_2O_2$, $O_3$, $O_3/H_2O_2$, $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ processes were tested for the removal of COD and color from terephthalic acid wastewater. COD removal efficiencies were 10, 48, 56, 63% in the $UV/H_2O_2$, $O_3$, $O_3/H_2O_2$, $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ process respectively. Color removal efficiency of $UV/H_2O_2$ process was 80% and $O_3$, $O_3/H_2O_2$, $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ processes were almost more than 99%. Terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid and benzoic acid were completely destructed in terephthalic wastewater within 120 min by $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ process and shows high COD and color removal efficiencies. The optimum concentration of $H_2O_2$ dosage was found to be 0.5 M, 25 mM and 5 mM for $UV/H_2O_2$, $O_3/H_2O_2$ and $UV/H_2O_2/O_3$ processes respectively, Organic destruction efficiency was enhanced and also reducing the consumption of $H_2O_2$ dosage by combining UV, $H_2O_2$ and $O_3$ process.

Metal catalysts such as Fe, Co, Mn, and Pd supported on the activated carbon (AC) were prepared to improve functional groups for the chemical adsorption and catalytic ozonation. Following ascending orders of the phenol decomposition rate, dissolved ozone decomposition ratio and TOC (total organic carbon) removal from experimental results of advanced oxidation process (AOP) were observed: Fe-AC < AC < Co-AC < Mn-AC < Pd-AC. BET analysis results showed that the physical properties of the metal impregnated activated carbon had no effect on the catalytic ozonation, and the catalytic effect was dependent on the kind of impregnated metal. The ratio of the formed concentration of OH radical to that of ozone (RCT) was measured by using the decomposition outcome of p-chlorobenzoic acid, a probe compound that reacts rapidly with OH radical but slowly with ozone. The measured values of RCT were $5.48{\times}10^{-9}$ and $1.47{\times}10^{-8}$ for the ozone alone and activated carbon processes, respectively, and $2.13{\times}10^{-9}$, $1.51{\times}10^{-8}$, $4.77{\times}10^{-8}$, and $5.58{\times}10^{-8}$ for Fe-AC, Co-AC, Mn-AC, and Pd-AC processes, respectively.
