본 논문에서는 최근에 주목 받고 있는 물질인 이온성액체를 실험실 규모로 제조하여 회분식 기-액 흡수평형(VLE)장치를 이용하여 압력에 따른 이산화탄소 용해도 및 초기흡수속도를 상용 이온성액체인 $PF_6$와 비교분석 하였다. 반응온도 $40^{\circ}C$조건에서 운전하였으며, 이산화탄소 압력 0~40기압 범위에서 수행되었다. 실험결과 methyl기가 붙은 합성 이온성액체의 경우 초기흡수속도면에서 상용 이온성액체인 $PF_6$보다는 다소 낮은 수준이다.

본 논문에서는 상용 이온성 액체를 대체하기 위해 손쉽게 구입할 수 있는 원료물질을 사용하여 이온성 액체를 실험실 규모로 제조한 후 고압 연소전 조건에서 이산화탄소의 용해도 및 재생력을 측정하기 위해 기-액 흡수평형장치를 이용하여 연구하였다. [eeim]ethyl sulfite를 제조하여 흡수실험을 실시한 결과 흡수평형압력이 25bar의 조건에서 0.72 mol $CO_2$ /mol IL의 흡수력을 보였으며, 재생성능은 탈착 전후의 흡수력 차이가 약 9%로 우수한 편이었다. 희석제를 첨가하였을 경우 흡수력은 약 38% 감소하였으나, 합성단계가 간단하며 원료물질이 저렴한 장점을 가지고 있다.

Over-application of nitrogen fertilizer keeps increasing the salinity in the soils of greenhouse in domestic agriculture. In order to remove the excess amounts of soil nitrate, soil microorganisms which have high capacity of nitrate uptake were isolated from the upland soils and their nitrate uptake activities were measured. Strain GS2 was able to remove 50 mM nitrate within 12 h. After sequence comparison analysis of 16S rRNA gene, the strain was identified and named as Bacillus sp. GS2. When the growth and nitrate uptake activities were measured, maximal values were obtained at $30-40^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$, respectively; however, both were optimal at pH 6-8. In the media containing 50 mM nitrate, Bacillus sp. GS2 removed 43 mM nitrate which is corresponding to 86% removal. Similar amounts of nitrate removal were observed at the nitrate concentrations up to 300 mM, showing a saturation in nitrate uptake at concentrations above 50 mM. These results imply that Bacillus sp. GS2 can be a good candidate for the microbial remediation of accumulated environmental nitrate because of its excellent growth and nitrate uptake activity.

To remove excess nitrate from the agricultural environments, Enterobacter amnigenus GG0461 has been isolated as a bacterial strain having high capability of nitrate uptake activity. This strain was able to remove nitrate more than 3,000 ppm (50 mM) in the Pseudomonas agar F (PAF) medium. Therefore, it could be a candidate strain for a nitrate scavenger in the various contaminated environments, such as agricultural soils, livestock sewage, and industrial wastewater. In order to develop medium for the large-scale production of the strain GG0461, each component of PAF medium was replaced with the corresponding commercial product and the optimal conditions for bacterial growth and nitrate uptake activity were measured. Glycerol was replaced with the commercially available product and the nitrogen source was substituted with commercial tryptone, yeast extract, soybean meal, and fermented fish extract. Bacterial growth and nitrate uptake activity were maximal in the media containing 2% tryptone, followed by yeast extract, soybean meal, and fermented fish extract. The pH of the growth medium containing 2% tryptone was decreased by the bacterial nitrate uptake, suggesting that the nitrate uptake is mediated by a nitrate/proton antiporter. This result shows that the medium containing commercial tryptone was good enough for the physiological activity of the strain GG0461. Each component of PAF medium was successfully replaced with the corresponding commercial product except peptone. In conclusion, the composition of medium for the cultivation of the strain GG0461 was determined as 2% tryptone, 1% glycerol, plus required salts according to the composition of PAF medium.

Since carbon dioxide, $CO_2$, was revealed as a major greenhouse gas, techniques for its separation, capture, and storage have received increasing interest in recent years. Aqueous amines are the most widely accepted $CO_2$ absorbents, but they cause the problems such as high regeneration energy, thermal degradation, and loss of absorbents due to their volatility. Ionic liquids having high thermal stability, extremely low vapor pressure, and capability of selectively absorbing specific gases have been proposed as new $CO_2$ capturing solvents which may potentially replace aqueous amines. By reviewing the ionic liquids having capability to absorb $CO_2$ reported in previous papers, we seek to develop a comprehensive understanding on the factors that influence the $CO_2$ solubility in ionic liquids such as their structures, absorption temperature, pressure, water content, etc., and to estimate the potential of ionic liquids as $CO_2$ separating media.

Heavy metals exist in soils in various chemical forms including free metal ions and organo-metal complexes. The ratio of free metal ions has been known to be highly associated with the plant absorption of heavy metals. This study aims to understand the effect of free ions and organo-metal complexes on the absorption of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) by plants. For this, lettuce grown in a hydroponic system for 28 days was consequently grown another 48 hours using Pb and Cd solutions. The ratios of free ion to organo-metal complexes in the solutions were adjusted at 100:0, 90:10, 70:30, 60:40 by four different organic acids (citric, oxalic, acetic, and humic acid). After that, the concentration of Pb and Cd in lettuce were analyzed. The Pb and Cd absorption by lettuce was more relied on the types of organic acids treated and the type of metals rather than the ratio of free metal ions. For example, citric acid increased the Pb absorption while it decreased the Cd absorption by lettuce. There was no significant relationship between free metal ion ratios and both Pb and Cd uptake by lettuce. It could be explained that citric acid, a relatively higher molecular weight organic acid, has higher ion binding capacity, so it forms organo-Pb complex easily due to the higher affinity of Pb on the binding site in comparison with Cd. Consequently, this complexation would assist Pb uptake by lettuce.

구리(II)의 전자상자성공명 흉수선의 모양과 선 폭에 대한 해석을 통해 석영-물 계면에서의 구리(II) 및 흡착수와 석영 표면과의 상호 작용에 대해 연구하였다. 두 가지 흡수선이 중첩하여 흡수선을 구성하며 따라서 석영 표면에 적어도 두 종류의 구리(II)가 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 하나는 g=2.18에 중심을 둔 초미세 갈라짐이 분해되지 않는 등방성 단일 흡수선을 보여 주는 구리(II) 이온이다. 이는 수용액 중에서와 유사한 빠른 자유 회전 운동이 가능한 상태로 표면에 매우 약하게 결합된 구리 이온(Cu($H_2O$)$_{6}$$^{2+}$)인 것으로 해석된다. 다른 하나는 축 대칭 흡수선 $g_{∥}$=2.40, $g_{⊥}$=2.08)을 가지는 구리(II)로서 이는 표면에 강하게 결합된 것으로 해석된다. 본 결과는 흡착 현상에 대한 열역학적 접근법인 표면 착물화 모델들이 제시하는 광물 표면에서의 금속 이온 흡착 모델이 거시적 관점에서 흡착 현상을 잘 모사할지라도 분자 수준의 미시적 관점에서 흡착 메커니즘을 규명하기 위해서는 독립적인 분광학적 정보가 제시되어야함을 보여 준다.다.

A new absorption spectrum observed from dilute aqueous solutions of methylene blue$(MB^+)$ and tetraphenylborate(TPB$^-$) ions was investigated by spectrophotometry. The species responsible for the spectrum can be a charge-transfer complex formed between the two, univalent, and poorly hydrated ions in order to minimize the disturbance to the water structure. However, as the absorption band of MB$^+$ is split into two bands with exciton splitting of about 2,000 cm$^{-1}$, the formation of double ion-pair, (MB-TPB)$_2$ appears to be more favorable than the charge transfer complex.

본 연구논문에서는 주요 온실가스인 이산화탄소의 제거를 목적으로 이온성 액체를 실험실규모로 제조한 후 기-액 흡수평형장치를 이용하여 이산화탄소의 용해도 및 재생특성 그리고 희석제첨가에 따른 영향을 조사하였다. 이산화탄소 용해도는 흡수평형압력 25bar조건에서 두 이온성 액체 모두 0.6 mole $CO_2$/mole ILs의 비슷한 흡수력을 보였다. 재생성능의 경우 탈착 전 후의 흡수력 차가 약 7%로 양호한 재생력을 나타냈다. 점도 감소를 위하여 sulfone 희석제를 첨가하여 조사한 결과 흡수력에서 약 15%가량 감소함을 알 수 있었다.
