혈액 및 생체시료 중 필수원소 혹은 독극성 원소의 극미량상분 정밀측정과 동위원소비율측정에 널리 사용되는 유도결합플라즈마 질량분석기(ICP-MS)의 기본원리를 소개하고 ICP-SM를 이용한 혈액중 낮은 ppb수준의 Cd, Hg 그리고 Pb의 정밀분석법을 소개한다. 혈액은 많은 양의 유기물을 포함하고 있으므로 digestion bomb에 질산과 과산화수소를 넣어 microwave oven에서 고온고압 상태로 분해시켜 많은 용액을 얻어 이 용액을 플라즈마에 주입시켜 분석한다. 그리고 수온은 tin(II) chloride 용액을 환원제로하여 생성시킨 수은원소증기를 membrane liquid-gas separator를 이용하여 뽑아내어 플라즈마에 주입시켜 낮은 ppt 수준의 검출한계를 얻는다. 또한 높은 정밀도와 정확도와 극미량 원소 측정에 사용되는 동위원소 회석법율 소개하고 실제 혈액분석에의 응용방법을 제시한다.

An advanced oxidation process catalyzed by iron ions in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, the so-called Fenton's reaction, has been applied to the treatment of steam generator chemical cleaning waste containing highly concentrated iron(III)- ethyl-enediaminetetraaceticacid (Fe(III)-EDTA) of 70000 mg/L. The experiments for the degradation of Fe(III)-EDTA were carried out not only with a simulated waste, but also with the real one. The effect of pH and the amount of hydrogen peroxide added to the waste on the degradation was examined, and the results were discussed in several aspects. The optimal pH to maximize the degradation efficiency was dependent on the amount of hydrogen peroxide added to the waste. i.e., when the amount of hydrogen peroxide was different, maximum degradation efficiency was obtained at different pH's. The optimal amount of hydrogen peroxide relative to that of Fe(III)-EDTA was found to be 24.7 mol ($H_{2}O_{2}$)/mol (Fe(III)-EDTA) at pH around 9.

This study was carried out in order to determine the remediation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs), trichloroethylene (TCE), perchloroethylene (PCE), benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX) compounds for non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) using in-situ air sparging (IAS) / vapor extraction (VE) with the marine sediments of Mandol, Hajeon, Sangam and Busan, South Korea. Surface sediment of Mandol area had sand characteristics (average particle size, 1.789 ${\Phi}$), and sandy silt characteristics (average particle size, 5.503 ${\Phi}$), respectively. Sangam surface sediment had silt characteristics (average particle size, 5.835 ${\Phi}$). Sediment characteristics before experiment in the Busan area showed clay characteristics (average particle size, 8.528 ${\Phi}$). TPHs level in the B1 column of Mandol, Hajeon, Sangam, and Busan sediments were 2,459, 6,712, 4,348, and 14,279 ppm. B2 (3 L/min) to B5 (5 L/min) columns reduced 99.5% to 100.0% of TCE and 93.2% to 100.0% of PCE. Removal rates of TCE, PCE, and BTEX are closely correlated (0.90-0.99) with particle sizes and organic carbon concentrations. However, TPHs (0.76) and benzene (0.71) showed the poorer but moderate correlations with the same parameters.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the suitability of hydrogen peroxide($H_2O_2$) vapor system for platform interior decontamination. Geobacillus stearothermophilus biological indicator(BI) strips and a field tent were used as a biological simulant and as a simulated platform, respectively. Decontamination was performed based on injection rates and tent sizes with exposure time 60 minutes. We standardized the conditions for the field tent decontamination : 8.0 g/min for $30m^3$($H_2O_2$ vapor concentration of 150~500 ppm, relative humidity of 50 %) and 12.0 g/min for $60m^3$($H_2O_2$ vapor concentration of 250~400 ppm, relative humidity of 55 %). Thus we suggest the system is one of the possible candidates for decontamination of platform interiors.

This study was performed to evaluate effect of extraction mode on SVE efficiency for fuel-contaminated soil. A gas station was selected for this study. As a result of pressure test in well head, soil texture of contaminated site under the gas station was very different from site to site. SVE system was operated in intermittent mode (1hr extraction / 3hr rest) or continuous mode. Capacity of air blower was $1m^3/min$. Extration mode test was conducted in two severe contaminated sites. In both two sites, cumulative TPHgas mass of intermittent extraction mode was higher than that of continuous mode. Considering long term operation of SVE in a field, in general, it was thought that intermittent extraction mode was effective in view of vaporized TPHgas mass and electrical cost.

CANDU-6형 원자력발전소인 월성 2,3,4호기 비상급수계통의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 설계기능 수행과 관련된 변수로서 격납건물내 집수조(sump) 온도와 열수송계통으로 주입되는 냉각재온도를 사용한 분석을 수행하였다. 이 온도들은 NTU(Number of Transfer Unit)방법을 이용한 비상노심 냉각계통 열교환기의 열전달속도와 열전달계수의 해석을 열평형관계식과 함께 조합한 프로그램을 사용하여 계산하였다. 또한 증기발생기 급수량과 추후 수조에 공급되는 보충수에 대한 설계요건을 검토하였다. 이러한 변수와 설계요건은 비상급수계통이 발전소 정상 열제거기능 상실후 노심의 붕괴열제거에 유효한 열침원으로서의 기능을 수행함을 보여 주었다. 또 격납건물의 건전성 유지와 관련된 집수조내 최고온도가 허용치 이하로 유지되었다.

가압경수로에서는 장기적인 반응도 조절을 위하여 B-10과 B-11을 함유한 천연붕산을 사용한다. 천연붕산의 사용으로 원자로냉각재의 붕소농도가 높기 때문에 pH를 적정한 범위로 유지하기 위하여 많은 양의 수산화리튬이 주입된다. 이로 인한 높은 리튬 농도는 증기발생기 재질의 응력부식균열과 핵연료피복재의 산화를 촉진시키는 등의 부작용을 초래할 수 있다고 보고되었다. 따라서 본 고에서는 천연붕산을 B-10 함량이 높은 농축붕산으로 대체하는 경우에 대한 기술적, 경제적 영향을 조사하고 검토하였다. 조사 결과, 농축붕산은 원전의 일차계통 수질화학, 부식생성물의 방사화에 의한 선량율, 보조계통 설계, 액체폐기물 발생량관점에서 여러가지 이점이 있을 수 있으며, 노심설계, 안전해석, 발전소 인허가 등의 관점에서는 문제가 없다고 밝혀졌다. 현재 천연붕산으로 운전중인 원전에서는 농축붕산의 경제성이 발전소의 주어진 제반여건에 의존하고, 농축붕산의 가격에 따라 크게 차이가 있는 것으로 보고되었다. 국내에 신규 원전이 계속적으로 건설되고 있는 현실에 비추어 볼 때, 발전소의 경제성과 안전성을 향상시키기 위하여 농축붕산 사용에 대한 타당성을 좀 더 면밀히 분석 할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

Indonesian coal-based activated carbon was manufactured with steam-reaction method. Also effects of carbonization temperature and steam amount on the process yield and quality of the product were investigated at the activation temperature of $900^{\circ}C$. The rotary kiln type furnace was used for both carbonization and activation and the optimum operation conditions were carbonization temperature of $700^{\circ}C$, steam amount of 2.7g steam/g char and activation temperature of $900^{\circ}C$. At this condition, the iodine value of activated carbon was 1,010 mg/g. Methylene Blue Adsorption Number was 230mg/g and B.E.T. surface area was $1,020m^2/g$ with the hardness about 97.

A 1/15-scale CREARE experiment, which simulates the thermal-hydraulic behavior in the reactor pressure vessel of a PWR during a hypothetical Loss Of Coolant Accident, has been analyzed using CATHARE code for the associated model assessment to represent the phenomenon. The key parameters examined in the CREARE experiment were known as ECC water injection rate. ECC water subcooling, system pressure, and steam flow rate coming out from the core bottom. The present CATHARE simulation, however, has been mainly focused on qualitative analysis of a countercurrent flow in the downcomer. The discrepancy of the simulation results with the experimental data is considered arising primarily from an inadequate numerical representation as well as an interfacial friction model. Accordingly it is suggested from the sensitivity studies that either multidimensional approach or further examination of momentum equations at a junction near a volume element in CATHARE be necessary in order to represent the phenomenon more realistically.

Proton Engineering Frontier Project (PEFP) has supplied the metal ions to users by using an installed metal ion implanter of 120 keV. At present a feasibility study is being performed for a cobalt ion implantation. For a cobalt ion extraction we studied to sustain the high temperature($648^{\circ}C$) for metal ions vaporization from a cobalt chloride powder by using an alumina crucible in the ion source. The temperature condition of the crucible was satisfied with the plasma generation at the arc current of 120V and EHC power of 250W. The extracted beam current of $Co^+$ ions was dependent on the arc current in the plasma. The maximum beam current was $100{\mu}A$ at 0.18A of the arc current. The 3 peak currents of the extracted ions such as $Co^+$, $CoCl^+$ and $Cl^+$ were obtained by adjusting a mass analyzing magnet and the $Co^+$ ion beam peak current fraction as around 70% in the sum of the peak currents. The fluence of the implanted cobalt ions at the $10{\mu}A$ of the beam current and 90 minutes of the implantation time into an aluminum sample as measured around $1.74{\times}10^{17}#/cm^2$ by a quantitative analysis method of RBS (Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry).
