Recently, a number of studies have been conducted on photocatalysts and adsorbents that can remove harmful substances to improve environmental problems related to fine particles. In this study, a porous foam composites were fabricated using palm-based activated carbon having a large amount of micro-pores and foam concrete with a significantly larger total pore volume compared to general construction materials. To evaluate the adsorption potential of fine particles, the pore structure of the foam composites were analyzed. For the analysis of the pore structure of the foam composite, BET and Harkins-jura theory were applied from the measured nitrogen adsorption isotherm. From the results of the analysis, the specific surface area and micro-pore volume of the foam composite containing activated carbon increased significantly compared to Plain. As thereplacement of activated carbon increased, the specific surface area and micro-pore volume of the foam composite tended to increase. It seems that the foam composite has high adsorption performance for gaseous fine particle precursor such as nitrogen oxides.

우리나라는 1970년대를 기점으로 하여 급격한 경제성장과 산업기술의 발전이 이루어졌다. 경제성장과 함께 주택의 보급 또한 급격하게 증가하게 되었고, 주택의 보급을 위한 건축자재 및 생활용품의 개발이 급속도로 이루어졌다. 이에 따라 실내에서 사용하는 기구 및 건축재료가 매우 다양해졌으며, 이로 인한 새로운 오염물질의 배출이 급격히 증가하게 되었다. 최근 새로운 기술로 소개되고 있는 촉매 산화법의 경우 제거하려는 대상 실내대기오염물질을 촉매를 이용하여 CO₂나 H₂O 등으로 산화시켜 제거하는 방법이며, 최근 많은 연구가 활발하게 수행되고 있다. 촉매를 이용하는 촉매 산화법은 광촉매 산화법과, 촉매의 성능만을 이용하여 대상물질을 산화하는 촉매산화법으로 구분된다. 광촉매 산화법은 특정 파장에서 반응하는 촉매에 자외선을 조사하여 실내오염물질을 산화제거하는 방법으로, 산화성능이 우수하여 여러 가지 실내오염가스에 적용되고 있으나, 별도의 광원이 필요하며, 포름알데히드 산화 시 CO₂와 H₂O 이외에도 dichloroacetyl chloride (C₂HCl₃O), trichloroethylene (C₂HCl₃), phosgene (COCl₂) 등과 같은 부수적인 2차 유해물질이 발생함에 따라 이를 처리하기 위한 대책이 수반되어야 한다. 반면, 촉매 산화법의 경우 별도의 광원이나 에너지원 없이, 촉매를 이용하여 대기오염물질을 인체에 무해한 물질로 완전 산화시키는 방법으로써, 최근 많은 연구가 수행되어 상온에서 구동 가능한 촉매가 개발되었고, 이의 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이에 상온산화촉매기술의 연구동향 및 사례를 확인하고, 향후 상온산화촉매기술이 나아가야 할 방향을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구는 환경부 환경산업선진화기술개발사업의 지원을 받아 수행되었습니다(2016000140004).

Anyone who wants to install local ventilation system must obtain a permission from the Ministry of Employment and Labor even if he has permission from the Ministry of Environment. This is because not only the Atmospheric Environmental Protection Act, but also the manufacturing industry's hazardous risk prevention plan under Article 48 Clause 2 of the Industrial Safety and Health Act is to be submitted by 15 days before the construction. Under the current Environmental Protection Act, the Ministry of Environment regulates only the emission of pollutants from local exhaust ventilation systems into the atmosphere and the contents of workers' safety and health within industrial sites are managed by the Ministry of Employment and Labor. Even with the approval of the Ministry of Environment, the number of unsuccessful cases by the Ministry of Employment and Labor has increased, causing a growing discontent among the sites due to production delays and additional costs of improvement. In addition, local exhaust systems that are at greater risk of fire explosion have increased the risk of severe industrial accidents due to fire explosion. This is due to insufficient design of air volume, control speed, return speed, duct size, and risk of fire explosion. This is because the criteria and procedures for approval of local exhaust ventilation systems are similar, but the Industrial Safety and Health Act adds additional screening items for safety and safety of workers and fire and explosion. In this study, the Environment Ministry and the Employment and Labor Ministry seek to find a reasonable way to operate the system by comparing local exhaust ventilation system installation approval standards.

용융공정 $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(123) 초전도체는 고자장 하에서도 통전특성이 우수하다 그러나 123 초전도체에는 미세균열이나 기공과 같이 초전도체의 통전특성에 유해 한 요인들도 다수 포함된다. 미세균열은 고온 정방정 상이 저온 사방정상으로 상변 태 시 발생하는 웅력에 의해 생성된다. 반면, 기공은 123 성형체를 녹이는 과정에서 123 상에 포함된 산소원자들이 격자로부터 이탈되고, 이 산소원자들이 모여 액상에서 기공을 형성한다. 제조공정에 따라 기공의 크기와 밀도가 다르지만 대략 수십 이크론 정도로 대단히 크다 생성된 기공 중 일부는 열처리 중에 소멸되나, 어떤 것들은 그대로 남아 초전도체의 치밀화를 방해한다. 본 연구에서는 123의 용융 및 $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(211)과 액상으로의 분해 과정 및 포정반응과 관련된 미세조직을 조사하여 기공생성과 소멸과정을 조사하였고, 123의 최종 미세조직에 대한 기공의 영향에 대 하여 연구하였다. 열처리 스케쥴은 123-211-액상의 그림 l의 2원 상태도를 기초로 하여 결정하였다. 먼저 부분 용융상태에서의 기공의 분포를 알고자 시편을 105$0^{\circ}C$에서 0.5-1 시 간 유지한 후, 액체 질소통에 넣어 냉각하였다 (그림 2의 열처리 경로 CD)$\circled1$부분 용 융상태에서 급랭할 경우 211과 액상 상태가 그대로 유지되므로 액상에서의 기공분 포를 관찰할 수 있다. 또 다른 시편들은 그림 2의 @$\circled2$경로로 열처리하였다. 이 시편에서는 고온에서 생성된 211과 액상이 반웅하여 123 결정이 생성, 성장하므로 123 결정립 내의 기공분포를 알 수 있다. 그림 3은 시편에서의 기공과 액상포켓의 분포를 모식도와 각 부위의 미세조직 사진이다. 시편에는 산소가스 발생으로 인해 생성된 수형의 기공이 관찰된다. 기공은 시편의 중앙에 집중되며, 시편 바깥부분은 기공에 액상이 채워진 액상포켓이 관찰된다. 기공의 생성과 소멸과정은 다음과 같다. 출발물질인 123 분말이 211과 액상으로 분해될 때 산소가스가 배출되며, 이로 인해 액상에서 구형의 기공이 생성된다. 이들 중 일부는 액상으로 채워져 소멸되나, 나머지는 그대로 남는다. 특히, 시편 중앙에 서는 수십-수백 마이크론 크기의 커다란 기공이 다수 관찰된는데, 이는 기공의 합체로 만들어진 것이다. 포정반응 열처리 시 기공 소멸로 만들어진 액상포켓들은 주변 211 입자와 반응하여 123 영역으로 변한다. 이곳은 다른 지역과 비교하여 211 밀도 가 낮기 때문에, 미반응 액상이 남거나 211 밀도가 낮은 123 영역이 된다. 액상으로 채워지지 못한 구형의 기공들 중 다수가 123 결정 내로 포획되며, 그 형상은 액상/ 기공/고상 계면에너지에 의해 결정된다.

Although the number of chemical accidents has been declining since the Chemical Control Act of 2015, there have been repeated occurrences of similar types of accidents at printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing facilities. These accidents were caused by the overflow of hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide, which are toxic chemicals used in the printed circuit board manufacturing process. An analysis of the $Cl^-$ content to identify the cause of the accident showed that in the mixed route of hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide, which are accidental substances, the $Cl^-$ concentration was 66.85 ppm in the hydrogen peroxide sample. Through reaction experiments, it was confirmed that the deformation of a PVC storage tank and generation of chlorine gas, which is a toxic gas, occurred due to reaction heat occurring up to $50.5^{\circ}C$. This paper proposes a facility safety management plan, including overcharge, overflow prevention, leak detection device, and separation tank design for mixing prevention in printed circuit board manufacturing facility etch process. To prevent the recurrence of accidents of the same type, the necessity of a periodic facility safety inspection and strengthening of the safety education of workers was discussed.

The sterilization method of records by fumigation using mixed gas of methyl bromide(MB) and ethylene oxide(ETO) has been generally used as a way to protect biological deterioration by microorganisms and insects. In this study, we confirmed sterilization effect of MB and ETO [86 : 14(Vol.%)] on and analyzed toxicity on microorganisms isolated from records. To analyze sterilization effect of fumigation on microorganisms and insect, we have fumigated microorganisms and insect with a various amounts mixed gas of MB and ETO, and various exposure time. Insect was sterilized at all experimental conditions. In microorganisms, sterilization effect was detected only when the mixed gas was treated at $120g/m^3$ concentration for at least 24 hrs. To test the possibility of isolated microorganisms as a threat to human health, it was investigated that toxicity test using yeast, radish and cancer cells on microorganisms. Only Aspergillus oryzae had an inhibition effect on growth of yeast. radish and cancer cells, respectively. These results demonstrate that sterilization effect can occur at low concentrations of the mixed gas on insect but requires higher concentrations of the mixed gas on microorganisms. In addition to, it is suspected that the possibility of the microorganism as a threat to human health is little.

In this study, the effects of MTBE contents as oxygenates in gasoline on exhaust emissions and fuel economy in MPI and GDi vehicles have been investigated. Various oxygen contents have been selected such as 0, 1.0, 2.3 and 2.7 wt%. FTP-75 and HWFET modes as fuel economy test methods which are widely used in Republic of Korea and US were applied to investigate exhaust emissions from the test vehicles. Emissions of CO, NMHC and NOx did not show significant correlation with oxygen contents in gasoline fuels, although having slight difference with these contents. In addition, CO2 emissions were not significantly changed with respect to oxygen content. But in case of warm-up and FTP-75 and HWFET modes including high speed regimes, CO2 emissions showed inverse correlation with oxygen contents. Particulate number concentration was inversely proportional to the oxygen contents, having the minimum value at the condition of 2.3 wt%. In case of fuel economy through carbon balance method, the highest value has been obtained at 2.3 wt% and there was positive correlation with oxygen contents and fuel economy.

Formamide is a colorless fluid with ammonia odor, and irritable when inhaled. It has $LD_{50}$ value of > 5,577 mg/kg in rats for acute oral toxicity and NOAEL of 113 mg/kg/day for target organ (liver) of whole body toxicity. It is also known as reproductive toxicant (1B) and TWA(Time Weighted Average) for it is 10 ppm. Workplace measurements of work places dealing with formamide showed the ppm of all 25 samples was very lower than WEL. However, the exposure concentration can change, depending on workplace condition such as the intensity of work, operating local ventilation system, and wearing protection equipment (Respirators). Therefore, considering it with the risk of whole body toxicity and reproductive toxicity, exposure quantity of each imaginary scenario was calculated at 5.16, 1.72, and $0.43mg/m^3$. The average value was calculated at 0.02-0.58, 0.02-0.66 at 90 percent of cumulative distribution, 0.02-0.69 at 95 percent of cumulative distribution. Therefore, it was generally evaluated to be safe because all values were below 1. However, caution is required to prevent health hazard because it has hepatotoxicity and reproductive toxicity and risk of a high level momentary exposure, depending on the condition of workplace.
