미사일 추력기 체계에 적용되는 하이드라진[$N_2H_4$]추진제는 MSDS-OHS 유해성 분류상 급성독성 물질로서 사용이 제한되고 있는 바, 다양한 대체물질이 개발 중이다. 최근 해외에서 안전성과 취급이 우수한 질산 히드록실암모늄[$NH_3OHNO_3$]과 암모늄 디나이트라마이드[$NH_4N(NO_2)_2$] 기반 단일계 액상추진제가 개발중이며, 이 물질들을 이용한 추력기 시스템 적용 시험이 진행되고 있다. 그러나 저온에서의 연로물질 산성화 반응으로 인한 디나이트라마이드[$N(NO_2)_2{^-}$] 물질의 분해는 나이트레이트[$NO_3{^-}$] 이온 생성을 촉진시키며, 부수적으로 발생하는 침전물은 촉매 및 노즐의 막힘 현상을 유발하므로 추력기 성능의 저해요인으로 작용한다. 그러므로 저온분해 방지를 위한 첨가제 조성 개발 및 열분해 특성 연구가 최근의 관심사이다. 본 연구는 합성/정제/추출한 암모늄 디나이트라마이드 산화제를 주요 조성물로 적용하였으며, 염기성 안정화제를 질량비율 4~5% 첨가하여 산성화 반응을 억제시킨 단일계 액상추진제(KMP) 형태로 제조하였다. 합성한 추진제는 시차주사열량계(DSC)를 이용하여 분해온도를 측정하여 열안정성을 평가해보았다.

Recent data from Environmental department show that some out of 2,000 places surveyed are contaminated by nitrate, ammonia, fluoride, chloride and so forth in excess of the environmental standard-including purification plants, water taps, small water supply systems. In this study, some items which exceed drinking water standard were chosen and their concentrations were made varying from around standard level to around detected maximum concentration. After they permeated through the membrane module sold in the domestic market and made for household water-purifier, the most suitable membranes were selected according to individual water quality of various regions. In addition, the bacterial growth after storage for various days and under various temperatures was examined for the purpose of the effect of the time and temperature on bacterial growth.

The special properties of silver are often indispensable in the manufacture of advanced materials. Therefore, it is of importance to develop a process to recover silver which is necessary for the production of advanced materials from diverse resources. In this manuscript, the developed processes for the leaching of silver from diverse resources are reviewed. For this purpose, the advantages and disadvantages of using some inorganic acids (nitric and sulfuric acid) and their mixture with other oxidizing agents (ozone, oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and ferric ion) were investigated. Moreover, the leaching of silver with thiourea and thiosulfate was compared over those by inorganic acids in terms of environmental effect.

Ion-exchange technology is one of the best for removing nitrate from drinking water. However, problems related to the disposal of spent brine from regeneration of exhausted resins must be overcome so that ion exchange can be applied more widely and economically, especially in small communities. In this background, a combined bio-regeneration and ion-exchange system was operated in order to prove that nitrate-laden resins could be bio-regenerated through direct contact with denitrifying bacteria. A nitrate-selective A520E resin was successfully regenerated by denitrifying bacteria. The bio-regeneration efficiency of nitrate-laden resins increased with the amount of flow passed through the ion-exchange column. When the fully exhausted resin was bio-regenerated for 5 days at the flowrate of 30 BV/hr and MLSS concentration of $125{\pm}25mg/L$, 97.5% of ion-exchange capacity was recovered. Measurement of nitrate concentrations in the column effluents also revealed that less than 5% of nitrate was eluted from the resin during 5 days of bio-regeneration. This result indicates that the main mechanism of bio-regeneration is the direct reduction of nitrate by denitrifying bacteria on the resin.

Hypergolic propellants have been widely used for space propulsion systems based their long-term storability and high ignition reliability. Since conventional hypergolic propellants are highly toxic and carcinogenic, handling and operating costs are significant. To overcome the drawbacks, numerous studies have been actively performed to develope new hypergolic propellants, ensuring that the combinations are high performance, low toxicity and low environmental impact. In the present study, a comprehensive survey was conducted to summarize the research and development of green hypergolic propellants involving hydrogen peroxide, nitric acid, and ionic liquids.

This study was carried out to evaluate the water quality of spring waters in Pusan area (see Fig. 1). In this experiment, one hundred and forty water samples were collected at 20 stations from July to December 1985. Range and mean value of constituents of the samples were as follows ; pH 6.2-8.2, 7.07 ; water temperature $4.0-23.5^{\circ}C,\;15.9^{\circ}C$ ; electrical conductivity $0.228{\times}10^{2}-2.125{\times}10^2{\mu}{\mho}/cm,\;0.860{\times}10^2{\mu}{\mho}/cm$; chloride ion 3.28-19.3mg/l, 6.81mg/l ; nitrite-nitrogen ND-0.221 mg/l, 0.017mg/l ; nitrate-nitrogen ND-6.779mg/l, 0.877 mg/l ; phosphate-phosphorus ND-0.105mg/l, 0.021mg/l ; silicate-silicious 2.12-22.70mg/l, 9.04mg/l, respectively. Especially, electrical conductivity, chloride ion, nitrite-nitrogen, nitrate-nitrogen, and silicate-silicious of the station 11 (Millakdong) were higher than those of others as $1.815{\times}10^2{\mu}{\mho}/cm$, 13.5mg/l, 0.076mg/l, 4.772mg/l and 14.07mg/l. Range and geometric mean value of total coliform and fecal coliform MPN's of the samples were 0-1,500/100ml, 13-470/100ml and 0-460/100ml, 2-32/100ml. Composition of coliform was $26.37\%$ Escherichia coli group, $21.98\%$ Citrobacter freundii group, $37.36%$ Entrobacter aerogenes group and $14.29\%$ others.

To investigate the applicability of montmorillonite to capping material for the remediation of contaminated marine sediment, adsorption characteristics of $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ onto montmorillonite were studied in a batch system with respect to changes in contact time, initial concentration, pH, adsorbent dose amount, competing anions, adsorbent mixture, and seawater. Sorption equilibrium reached in 1 h at 50 mg/L but 3 h was required to reach sorption equilibrium at 300 mg/L. Freundlich model was more suitable to describe equilibrium sorption data than Langmuir model. The $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ adsorption decreased as pH increased, due to the $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ competition for favorable adsorption site with OH- at higher pH. The presence of anions such as nitrate, sulfate, and bicarbonate had no significant effect on the $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ adsorption onto the montmorillonite. The use of the montmorillonite alone was more effective for the removal of the $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ than mixing the montmorillonite with red mud and steel slag. The $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ adsorption capacity of the montmorillonite was higher in seawater than deionized water, resulting from the presence of calcium ion in seawater. The water tank elution experiments showed that montmorillonite capping blocked well the elution of $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$, which was not measured up to 14 days. It was concluded that the montmirillonite has a potential capping material for the removal of the $PO{_4}{^{3-}}$ from the aqueous solutions.

This experiment was carried out to understand the characteristics of inorganic ion uptake of strawberries to establish a labor saving, environmentally sound closed hydroponic system. Nitrate nitrogen is absorbed in the perlite and granule rockwood with the almost same rate and in the cocopeat with a little bit higher concentration. At the early growth stage, phosphate was absorbed in comparatively high rate, but it is gradually declining to $4me{\cdot}L^{-1}$ in the three treatments except for reused medium. Four treatments showed different absorption rates for potassium, respectively, however, it became $3{\sim}5me{\cdot}L^{-1}$ gradually. But there was few sign to absorb potassium in the reused medium. High concentration of calcium was absorbed in the cocopeat medium and the lowest absorption rate in the granule rockwool, and it turned out to be $2{\sim}3me{\cdot}L^{-1}$ absorption concentration rate in the perlite. All three treatments showed $1me{\cdot}L^{-1}$ at the average absorption concentration rate of magnesium. Iron showed high absorption rate but it showed steadily 1~2 ppm absorption rate. Results of this experiment will be utilized for developing the new substrates for strawberry closed hydroponic system.

Purpose: Development of a latent antimicrobial soft liner is strongly needed to overcome a possible inflammation related with its dimensional degrade or surface roughness. Modified tissue conditioner (TC) containing chitosan-doped silver nanoparticles (ChSN) complexes were synthesized and assessed for their characterizations. Materials and methods: ChSN were preliminarily synthesized from silver nitrate (AgNO₃), sodium borohydride (NaBH₄) as a reducing agent and chitosan biopolymer as a capping agent. Ultraviolet-visible and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were conducted to confirm the stable reduction of nanoparticles with chitosan. Modified TC blended with ChSN by 0 (control), 1.0, 3.0 and 5.0 % mass fraction were mechanically tested by ultimate tensile strength (UTS), silver ion elution and color stability (n=7). Results: At 24 hour and 7 day storage periods, UTS values were not significant (P>.05) as compared with pristine TC (control) and silver ion was detected with the dose-dependent values of ChSN incorporated. Color stability of TC were influenced by ChSN add, with the higher doses, the significantly greater color changes (P<.05). Conclusion: A stable synthesized ChSN was acquired and modified TC loading ChSN was characterized as silver ion releasing without detrimental physical property. For its clinical application, antimicrobial test, color control and multifactor investigations are still required.
