Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is one of most abundant microcystins, and is derived from blue-green algae bloom. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are effective process when high concentrations of MC-LR are released into a drinking water treatment system from surface water. In particular, UV-based AOPs such as UV, $UV/H_2O_2$, $UV/O_3$ and $UV/TiO_2$ have been studied for the removal of MC-LR. In this study, UV-LED was applied for the degradation of MC-LR because UV lamps have demonstrated some weaknesses, such as frequent replacements; that generate mercury waste and high heat loss. Degradation efficiencies of the MC-LR (initial conc. = $100{\mu}g/L$) were 30% and 95.9% using LED-L (280 nm, $0.024mW/cm^2$) and LED-H (280 nm, $2.18mW/cm^2$), respectively. Aromatic compounds of natural organic matter changed to aliphatic compounds under the LED-H irradiation by LC-OCD analysis. For application to raw water, the Nak-dong River was sampled during summer when blue-green algae were heavy bloom in 2016. The concentration of extracellular and total MC-LR, geosmin and 2-MIB slightly decreased by increasing the LED-L irradiation; however, the removal of MC-LR by UV-LED (${\lambda}=280nm$) was insufficient. Thus, advanced UV-LED technology or the addition of oxidants with UV-LED is required to obtain better degradation efficiency of MC-LR.

LED(Light Emitting Diode)는 전기 신호를 빛으로 신호를 보내고 받는데 사용되는 반도체의 일종으로 가정용 가전제품, 리모컨, 전광판, 각종 자동화 기기등에 사용된다. 3색광 백색 LED는 soft-UV 또는 blue 빛을 내는 device 와 RGB 형광체로 이루어져 있다. 현재 연구중인 3색광 백색 LED는 InGaN 또는 GaN 이 RGB 형광체를 여기 시키는것이 대부분이다. 이러한 경우에 유기물과 무기물 형과체가 백색광을 구현하기 위해 사용된다. 유기물의 경우에는 lift-time 이 짧고, 무기물의 경우에는 유해원소인 S, Cd등이 포함되기 때문에 환경오염이 야기된다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 진화 최적방법을 이용하여 alkali earth borosilicate ((Eu,Mg,Ca,Sr,Ba)$_{x}$ $B_{y}$ S $i_{z}$ $O_{d}$ ) 계열에 $^{Eu3+}$을 도핑하여 고효율 형광체를 합성하였다.

This experiment was performed to study growth and yield of rice (cv. Dongjinbyeo) and soil properties affected by the application of rice straw, compost, and hairy vetch. An application of rice straw and compost led to the decrease in plant heights and tillers compared with chemical fertilizer whereas hairy vetch application resulted in slight increase. Panicle no per plant was the highest in chemical fertilizer and there was no difference among organic matters. Grain per panicle was no difference among chemical fertilizer, rice straw, and compost whereas was the lowest in hairy vetch application. The 1,000 grain weights did not show any statistic difference and the ripened rate was enhanced in all treatments of organic sources compared with chemical fertilizer. Therefore, an index of rice yield of compost, rice straw, and hairy vetch to chemical fertilizer (100%) was 77, 72, and 103%, respectively. In addition, an application of organic sources led to the increase of soil pore space and this contributed to the improvement of soil physical property.

Organic geochemical analyses including Rock-Eval pyrolysis, elemental analysis and stable carbon isotope analysis were performed to evaluate the characteristics of organic matter in the ODP Leg 127 Site 794A sediments and to understand paleoceanographic changes. Based on the TOC contents, C/N ratio, HI vs. OI, $\delta^{13}C_{org}$ and C/S ratio, results imply that dark layers containing a large amount of terrigenous organic matter were deposited under the suboxic/anoxic conditions, whereas the light layers containing largely marine organic matter were deposited under the oxic conditions. These results indicate that increasing surface-productivity by the input of a large amount of terrigenous organic matter from adjacent continent led to the deposition of dark layers during the interglacial highstands, whereas marine primary production and dilution caused by Kosa from the China desert area led to the deposition of light layers with the decreased to terrigenous organic matter during the glacial lowstands.

This study was conducted to evaluate the removal behaviors of DOM(dissolved organic matter) and phosphorus in eutrophic lake water by coagulation process with PAC(powdered activated carbon). It was observed that the removal characteristic of soluble matter was different from that of dissolved one, and the removal of DOM was effected by both pH and coagulant dosage. It was founded that PAC could increase the removal efficiency by an adsorption of DOM in coagulation process. A formation of soluble and colloidal matters resulted in the degradation of phosphorus removal efficiency in a chemical precipitation process. The phosphorus removal efficiency could be enhanced by an absorption of colloidal matter and dissolved complex with PAC addition. In addition, the PAC addition caused the increase of floc density in coagulation process, that led to the rise of sedimentation rate, and resulted in a significant improvement of solid-liquid separation efficiency.

1963년 Pope 등에 의해 anthracene 단결정에서 전기 발광(Electroluminescence, EL)이 처음 발견되었지만 실용성의 문제로 크게 각광을 받지는 못했다. 그후로 진공 증착 방법이 고안되고, 1987년 Tang 등에 의해 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminium(Alq$_3$)이라는 색소를 승화시켜 발광층으로 하는 박막 형태의 소자가 개발되면서 유기물로 만들어진 발광다이오드(LED)에 대한 연구가 활발해 졌다. 또한, 1990년 영국의 케임브리지 대학에서 공액고분자인 poly(p-phenylenevinylene)(PPV)를 이용해서 만든 LED가 개발된 이후, 고분자 LED에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되어오고 있다. $^{(1)}$ (중략)

In this paper, we design, fabricate, and test the performance of a cabin filter with LED modules of composite wavelengths containing UV-A and UV-C. Germs and air farms of the manufactured cabin filter confirmed sterilization capability in the sterilization test, and special chambers were manufactured to verify organic material decomposition capability in the organic compound decomposition test. Using colkates as photocatalytic was proved to be superior to using metal mash. The sterilization and air purification capabilities of the cabin filter produced throughout this study were verified through a similar environmental test.

백색 OLED 조명 분야에서 색 변환은 큰 이슈가 되고 있다. 하지만 청색 유기물의 발광 특성이 좋지 못하여 아직까지 정착이 되지 못하고 있는 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 발광 효율이 낮은 청색 OLED 대신 청색 LED와 황색 OLED를 사용하여 색 변환을 통한 백색 발광 panel을 제조하고 전기 및 광학적 특성을 평가하였다. 먼저 OLED소자는 진공증착방법을 사용하여 ITO (150 nm)/KHI-001 (5 nm)/LG-101 (10 nm)/KHT-001 (25 nm)/ PGH-02 (25 nm): Ir (mpp) 3 (8%): PRD-003 (0.3%)/TMM-004 (10 nm)/LG-201 (20 nm): LiQ (50%)/Al (150 nm) 구조를 갖는 발광면적 $70{\times}70mm^2$의 황색 OLED panel을 제작하였다. CIE 1931색좌표는(0.49, 0.49)이고, 효율은 $41.61{\ell}m/W$이다. 그리고 LED는 청색 칩을 한 줄로 나열하여 LED bar를 만들었고 여기에 도광판, 리버스 프리즘시트, 확산시트 그리고 반사시트를 더하여 점광원을 면광원화 하였다. CIE 1931색좌표가 (0.15, 0.04)이며 효율은 $3.56{\ell}m/W$이다. 황색 OLED를 청색 LED 면광원 뒤에 붙여서 두 빛이 도광판 위쪽으로 나오게 하였다. 이렇게 hybrid된 빛은 인가 전류를 변화 시킴으로써 색온도 3,200 K의 warm white에서 7,800 K의 cool white까지 변환이 가능하였다. 그리고 순백의 hybrid 빛을 얻을 수 있었는데 이때의 색온도는 4200K이고 CIE 1931색좌표는(0.34, 0.33)이며 연색지수는 89였다.

This study investigates the characteristics of the GAC adsorption behavior during the operation of a multi-stage cross-flow filtration and GAC adsorption process for the purpose of devising an advanced treatment of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and evaluates the regeneration efficiency of spent GAC that has reached the design breakpoint. During the filtration process, suspended substances are easily removed, but dissolved organic substances are not removed, necessitating a process capable of removing dissolved organic substances for the advanced treatment of CSOs. In general, GAC adsorption has been applied under low-concentration organic conditions, such as for water purification and tertiary treatments of sewage, and has rarely been applied under conditions with high organic concentrations, such as with sewage or CSOs. Accordingly, this study will provide a new and interesting experience. Also in this study, the continuous operation and breakthrough characteristics of GAC according to the strength of the inflow organic matter were investigated, electrochemical regeneration was applied to the used GAC, and the regeneration efficiency was evaluated through desorption and re-adsorption tests. The results showed that the breakthrough period was 21 days under high concentration conditions, 28 days at medium concentrations, and 32 days under low concentration conditions. The desorption of adsorbed organic matter through electrolysis occurred in the range of 188 to 609 mgCOD/L depending on the electrolysis conditions, and the effect of the electrolyte type led to the finding that NaOH was slightly higher than H₂O₂.
