To develop mixed pesticides of herbicide and topdressing fertilizer for paddy rice, twelve mixtures were formulated with combination of urea coated with different level of acrylic acid wax(AAW) and four herbicides, which were thiobencarb, pretilachlor, mefenacet + bensulfuron-methyl and mefenacet + bensulfuron-methyl + dymron, and effects of the mixtures for weed control, phytotoxicity and rice tillering were investigated in the laboratory and the field experiments. Release rates of active ingredient of herbicides in the distilled water were over 90% during 24 hours same as that of the reference herbicides. The release rates of nitrogen showed different patterns according to coated level of granular urea with acrylic acid wax. Optimum release rate of nitrogen as $NH_4-N$ was obtained by 5.5% AAW coating on urea for thiobencarb or pretilachlor mixture, and by 4.0% AAW coating on urea for mefenacet + bensulfuron-methyl or mefenacet + bensulfuron-methyl + dymron mixture. The pesticide active ingredients of the mixtures were stable, which showed $3.7{\sim}8.0%$ of degradation rate after 90 days of storage under $50^{\circ}C$. Effects on weed control of mixtures were acceptable for both annual and perennial weeds, while ACRI-M9213 mixture showed considerable phytotoxicity at double dose of standard. When treated the mixed pesticides to paddy rice, rice growth status including culm length, ear length, panicle number and polished rice yield exhibited no significant differences compared with the conventional treatment.

We analyzed the water quality of first flush and rainfall runoff from a building rooftop, and investigated the removal of suspended solids (SS) in first flush using various media to develop a first flush filtration system. Particle size distribution exhibited most of particles in first flush from the rooftop ranged from 10 to 30 ${\mu}m$. SS concentrations maxed in 10~20 min and decreased afterwards. Dissolved organics and inorganic materials in runoff also showed highest levels in first flush (10 min). Filtration tests using anthracite (AC), polyurethane (PU), polypropylene (PP) showed about 50% of SS removal during the first 10 min operation, but the removal rates dramatically decreased after 20 min of filtration. Based upon the results from rinse and run cycle tests, only AC could achieve nice cycles without distinct decease of SS removal. SS removal rates increased with higher depth of media bed and lower flowrate. The system achieved over 50% of SS removal with a media depth of 30 cm and flowrate < 12 L/min.

In this paper, a setting method of initial cluster centers and color image segmentation using superpixels and Fuzzy C-means(FCM) algorithm is proposed. Generally, the FCM can be widely used to segment color images, and an element is assigned to any cluster with each membership values in the FCM. However the algorithm has a problem of local convergence by determining the initial cluster centers. So the selection of initial cluster centers is very important, we proposed an effective method to determine the initial cluster centers using superpixels. The superpixels can be obtained by grouping of some pixels having similar characteristics from original image, and it is projected $La^*b^*$ feature space to obtain the initial cluster centers. The proposed method can be speeded up because number of superpixels are extremely smaller than pixels of original image. To evaluate the proposed method, several color images are used for computer simulation, and we know that the proposed method is superior to the conventional algorithm by the experimental results.

The temperature changes and quality characteristics of $Makgeolli$ produced using rice treated with $Gaeryang-Nuruk$ (commercial improved $Nuruk$) extract were investigated. During fermentation, the treated rice maintained a lower temperature than the control and then rose after the fifth mashing day. For all the treatments, the numbers of yeast, LAB and AAB colonies increased on the second mashing day, and then gradually decreased. As the fermentation proceeded, the pH gradually increased from the third mashing day, and eventually became higher than that on the initial mashing day. The total acid contents increased on the first mashing day, but as the fermentation progressed, they showed little change. The amino acidity and soluble solid contents during overall fermentation and reducing-sugar contents was reduced until the first mashing day, and increased from the day after. As for the alcohol content, that of the control was 6.87% on the first mashing day, and then gradually increased, nuruk-extract-treated rice began with 9~10% alcohol content and then increased as the fermentation proceeded. Among the organic acid contents, lactate was the main material. In the sensory evaluation, the 24 h-, 48 h- and 72 h- treated rice samples showed somewhat good response.

산림부산물인 수피에 의한 카드뮴 이온의 선택적 흡착 현상을 이용하여 인공폐수로부터 카드뮴이온의 제거를 시도하였다. 카드뮴 이온 선택성이 우수한 소나무와 상수리 나무의 수피를 이용한 효율적인 연속식 대량 수처리 시스템의 개발을 위한 기초 실험으로 카드뮴 이온흡착 등온선을 조사하였고, batch stirred reactor, airlift reactor, packed bed column 등 여러 접촉시스템에서의 카드뮴 이온의 제거 효율을 검토하였다. 카드뮴 흡착등온선은 두 수피 모두 Langmuir 형식으로 나타났으며 소나무 수피의 최대흡착용량은 약 7 mg/g, 상수리나무 수피의 경우에는 약 8 mg/g 정도로 나타났다. Batch stirred reactor를 이용한 시스템에서 초기농도 13 ppm의 카드뮴용액 100 $m\ell$ 을 수피 10 g 과 접촉시킨 결과 30분 이내에 95% 이상 제거되는 효율성을 보여주었다. Airlift reactor를 이용한 시스템에서는 수피 30 g 을 포기농도 10 ppm 카드뮴 용액 1 liter와 접촉시킨 결과 15분 이내에 93 % 이상 제거되었으며 4 cycle 반복 운전에서도 거의 같은 성능을 유지하였고 그 이상의 cycle에서는 점점 성능이 떨어짐을 보여주었다. Packed bed column을 이용한 시스템에서는 20 g의 수피를 충전시켰을 경우 초기농도 20 ppm에서 effluent 2.5 liter 까지는 95% 정도의 제거효율을 보여주었다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate effects of initial concentration and nutrients in treatment of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soils. The reactor used in this study was slurry-phase bioreactor of in-vessel type. Performance results on treatment of diesel fuel contaminated soils and micorbial growth were generated at the bench-scale level. The fate of TPH(Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) and the microbial growth were evaluated in combination with biodegradation rate. Effect of initial loading levels of 50,000 and 100,000mg TPH/kg soil was studied. Performance results with two reactors were showed at the total TPH removal rate of 90.5% and 90.8%, respectively. However, the reactor with the initial concentration of 50,000mg TPH/kg soil showed higher biological TPH removal efficiency except for removal by volatilization than the other Although the different amount of nutrients was applied in two reactors, there was no remarkable difference in microbial growth rate. However, considerable factor in this results was that applied different initial concentration to two reactors. Although initial concentration was two times higher than it applied to the reactor without addition of nutrients, in total and biological TPH removal rate the reactor with addition of nutrients showed a higher than the other.

To enhance electrochemical performances of anode materials, the surface of coal tar pitch (CTP) was modified by incorporating heteroatoms through chemical treatment with phosphoric acid ($H_3PO_4$). The prepared anode materials with modified CTP was analyzed by XRD, FE-SEM and XPS. The electrochemical performances of modified CTP were investigated by constant current charge/discharge test, rate performance, cyclic voltammetry and impedance tests using the electrolyte of $LiPF_6$ dissolved in the mixed organic solvents (ethylene carbonate : dimethyl carbonate = 1 : 1 vol% + vinylene carbonate 3 wt%). The coin cell using modified CTP ($H_3PO_4/CTP$ = 3 : 100 in weight) has better initial capacity and initial efficiency (489 mAh/g, 82%) than those of other composition coin cells. Also, it was found that the capacity retention was 86% after 30 cycles and the rate capability was 87% at 2 C/0.1 C.
