Dense polymer membranes were made from vanous silicone polymers such as poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyneHPTMSP), poly(dimethylsiloxaneHPDMS), PTMSP- g-PDMS. These membranes were evaluated in terms of the removal of chlorinated organic hydrocarbons such as chloroform, trichloroethylene(TCE), perchloroethylene(PCE) from water by pervaporation. It was possible for membranes used in this study to remove PCE selectively which is dissolved small quantity in water among other separable solutes. PTMSP membranes exhibited a remarkable decay in permeability with time because of the free volume decreases. However, PTMSP-g-PDMS membrane underwent no physical aging and showed the stable flux behavior. From the results of the contact angle measurement, polymeric membranes used in this study showed affinity with solutes for separation and no affinity with water. The relative swelling degree was directly related to the selectivity, while it has no influence on the flux.

Polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane was coated with polyisobutylene(PIB) as a top layer to separate chlorinated hydrocarbons. The solubility parameter differences between PIB, water and perchloroethylene(PCE) or trichloroethylene(TCE) show that the solubility parameter difference between PIB and TCE or PCE is similar while that between PIB and water is far less, indicating that PIB is selective to chlorinated hydrocarbons. The pervaporation separation of TCE and PCE shows that TCE is concentrated more than four times, by PIB composite membrane, while PCE is concentrated more than thirteen times. This result shows that PIB composite membrane in this study seems to be an appropriate selective layer for the separation of TCE and PCE from aqueous organic solutions.

1. 서론 : 본 연구는 시간이 경과함에 따라 free volume감소로 나타나는 PTMSP[Poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne)] memebrane의 pysical aging을 늦추거나 방지할 목적으로 PTMSP polymer를 합성하여 여기에 hydroxy-terminated PDMS를 graft시켜 PTMSP/PDMS graft copolymer를 제조하였다. 용매증발법에 의해 PTMSP memebrane 및 PTMSP/PDMS graft copolymer memebrane을 제막한 후 PTMSP막의 물리적 노화를 관찰하기 위한 시점에서 조업시간에 따른 이들 막의 transport property을 살펴 보았다. 또한 이들 polymer을 사용하여 0.5 wt%의 희박 dope solution을 제조한 후 여기에 상전환법에 의해 제조된 비대칭 PEI(polyetherimide)지지막을 dip-doping시켜 PTMSP-PEI, PTMSP/PDMS-PEI 복합막을 제조하여 상기의 두 막과 투과증발 특성을 상호 비교하여 보았다. 그리고 객관적 비교 자료를 얻을 목적으로 PDMS막과 PDMS-PEI 복합막을 각각 제막하여 동일조건에서 실험을 수행하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 수중에 미량 용해된 chloroform, trichloroethylene, perchlororthylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane 등의 유기염소계화합물 제거 실험을 통해 PTMSP, PTMSP/PDMS 등의 dense membrane과 asymmetric composite membrane 사이의 상관관계 및 이들 막들의 투과특성을 서로 비교, 분석하는데 목적을 두었다.

The screening of the microorganisms degrading chlorinated organic compounds such as PCP (pentachlorophenol) and TCE (trichloroethylene) was conducted with soil and industrial wastewater contaminated with various chlorinated organic compounds. Isolates (GP5, GP19) capable of degrading PCP and isolates (GA6, GA15) capable of degrading TCE were identified as Acetobactor sp., Pseudomonas sp., Arthrobacer sp., Xanthomonas sp. and named Acetobacter sp. GP5, Pseudomonas sp. GP19, Arthrobacer sp. GA6 and Xanthomoas sp. GA15, respectively. The microbial augmentation, OC17 formulated with the mixture of bacteria including isolates (4 strains) degrading chlorinated organic compounds and isolates (Acinetobacter sp. KN11, Neisseria sp. GN13) degrading aromatic hydrocarbons. Characteristics of microbial augmentation OC-17 showed cell mass of $2.8{\times}10^9CFU/g$, bulk density of $0.299g/cm^3$ and water content of 26.8%. In the experiment with an artificial wastewater containing PCP (500 mg/l), degradation efficiency of the microbial augmentation OC17 was 87% during incubation of 65 hours. The degradation efficiency of TCE (300 uM) by microbial augmentation OC17 was 90% during incubation of 50 hours. In a continuous culture experiment, analysis of the biodegradation of organic compounds by microbial augmentation OC17 in industry wastewater containing chlorinated hydrocarbons showed that the removal rate of COD was 91% during incubation of 10 days. These results indicate that it is possible to apply the microbial augmentation OC17 to industrial wastewaters containing chlorinated organic compounds.

최근 산업사회의 발전에 따라 수계 오염문제가 심각하게 대두되고 있다. 따라서 이들 오염물질에 대한 모니터링을 위한 방법들이 강구되고 있으며, 이 중에서 어류 간의 cytochrome P450 호소계는 지방친화성 물질의 오염상태를 평가할 수 있는 물질로 알려지고 있다(Payne et al., 1987). PCBs(Polychlorinated biphenyls)와 HCB(Hexachlorobenzene)는 유기염소계 화합물로서 환경중에 널리 분포하고 있으며, 이중 PCBs는 신경계, 면역계 및 내분비계 등 생체내에 미치는 영향이 크므로 내분비장애물질(endocrine disruptor)로 분류되고 있고, HCB는 독성이 강한 화합물로서 주로 농업에서 fungicide로서 사용되어 왔으며. 다양한 산업 연소과정의 부산물로 발생되고 있다.

In this study the trace of chlorinated organic compound in aqueous solution was separated by pervaporation process using crosslinked PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) membrane. The flux of trichloroethylene(TCE) increased linearly with feed composition but the flux of water was slightly increased. The partial flux of TCE was greater than that of tetrachloroethylene(PCE). The partial flux of TCE was not changed with operating temperature, but increased rapidly with feed flow rates. High crosslinking density causes the reduction of solubility and diffusivity for target component. The reduction of flux and selectivity for TCE is due to the chain immobilization and reduction of diffusivity with crosslinking density.

Horizontal distributions and their ecotoxicological implications relating to organochlorine compounds (OCs) were determined in surface sediments sampled from the West Nakdong River. The concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethanes (DDTs), hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCHs), and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) in surface sediments were in the range of 0.57-3.68, 0.41-8.35, 0.63-1.65, and n.d.-0.56 ng/g, respectively. DDTs represent the major OC in the West Nakdong River. Concentrations of PCBs and DDTs correlate with the total organic carbon (PCBs: r=0.874, p<0.001, and DDTs: r=0.762, p<0.05, respectively), indicating that organic content in the sediments is one of the major factors for influencing horizontal distribution of the organochlorine compounds in this river. Examining the potential poisonous character of the surface sediments to benthic organisms according to the sediment quality guideline (SQG), set out by the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), we found that the concentrations of total PCBs, p,p'-DDD, and ${\gamma}$-HCH were lower than the effects range-low (ER-L) and the probable effects level (PEL). As a result, it is considered that the effect of organochlorines in the region considered on benthic organisms is very low from the perspective of environmental toxicology. However, in terms of the Canadian SQC, p,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDT, and total DDTs, respectively, exceeded the interim sediment quality guidelines (ISQG) and the threshold effect level (TEL) in 30%, 17%, and 19%, respectively, of the sediment samples analyzed.

This study performed several tests for the durability of the concrete coated with nano synthesis ceramics which do not contain volatile organic compounds harmful to environment. The tests were adhesion test on dry and humid concrete, SEM test, MIP analysis, carbonation, chloride diffusion by electronic facilitation, freezing-thawing resistance, alkaline resistance, and brine resistance test. In the adhesion test on dry and humid concrete, nano synthesis ceramics coating produced the highest results among all the coatings tested. Nano synthesis ceramics adhered solidly on the concrete surface. The adhesive strength seemed to result from the hydrogen bond between nano synthesis ceramics which are inorganic and generated by hydrolysis and re-condensation reaction and the concrete's hydrates such as calcium silicate aluminate or calcium silicate hydrate. SEM test and MIP analysis results show surface structure with finest crevices pore in the nano synthesis ceramics coating applied concretes. In the carbonation, chloride diffusion, and freezing-thawing resistance tests, the concretes with nano synthesis ceramics coating indicated the best results. Based on these test results, further progress in application of nano synthesis ceramics coatings to various concrete structures including costal structures and sewerage arrangements can be expected.

Present investigation is undertaken to evaluate residues of organochlorine pesticides and PCBs in river sediments and cultivated soils by GLC. Main sampling areas chosen were three industrial estates, Suwon, Iri and Kumi. Samples consist of river sediments and cultivated soils, in Suwon, Iri and Chilgok, which are likely to be accumulated with PCBs from nearby factories. Organochlorine pesticide residues were found in all sediments and soil samples while no PCBs residue was detected in all samples analyzed. The pesticide residues were greatest in the Suwon and least in Chilgok soils. p,p'-DDT and BHC isomers $({\alpha}-,\;and\;{\gamma}-)$ were found in all soil samples. p,p'-DDT, at the range of 0.006-0.840 ppm, was the most abundant residues among organochlorine insecticides.
