This research programme include investigation of the adsorption behavior of heavy metals and VOCs by Pyrolysis char for using landfill cover material. The volatile potions in the sludge gasified during the pyrolysis period and gave birth to porosity throughout the matrix. The result of the ad/desorption experiment of nitrogen to find out the formation of some pore by the gasification of the volatile matter, we can certify that the pyrolysis char($14.56\;m^2/g$) has increased twice more than the organic wasted sludge($6.68\;m^2/g$) in specific surface area. The pyrolysis char has the adsorption characteristic of medium type of Type II and V in BDDT classification, and showed a little micro pore. In the adsorption experiment of ethylbenzene and toluene, as a result of applying the Freundlich adsorption isotherms, the pyrolysis char was higher in the adsorptivity of ethylbenzene and toluene than the granite and the organic wasted sludge. The results of the heavy metal adsorption test for the char indicated that it had some ability of adsorption. It is suggest that pyrolysis char has some advantages for utilizing as landfill covers because the pyrolysis char can adsorb/absorb hazardous substances from the landfill sites and inhibit the ground water and soil contamination.

Adsorption of metanil yellow onto granular activated carbon were studied in a batch system. Various operation parameters such as adsorbent dosage, pH, initial concentration, contact time and temperature were optimized. Experimental equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed by Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm. The equilibrium process was described well by Freundlich isotherm model. From determined separation factor (1/n), adsorption of metanil yellow by granular activated carbon could be employed as effective treatment method. By analysis of kinetic experimental data, the adsorption process were found to confirm to the pseudo second order model with good correlation and the adsorption rate constant ($k^2$) decreased with increasing initial concentration. Thermodynamic parameters like activation energy, change of free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were also calculated to predict the nature adsorption in the temperature range of 298~318 K. The activation energy was determined as 23.90 kJ/mol. It was found that the adsortpion of metanil yellow on the granular activated carbon was physical process. The negative Gibbs free energy change (${\Delta}G=-2.16{\sim}-6.55kJ/mol$) and the positive enthalpy change (${\Delta}H=+23.29kJ/mol$) indicated the spontaneous and endothermic nature of the adsorption process, respectively.

The present research evaluates the efficiency of mixed resins between anion exchange resin and active carbon. We expected synergic effect from advantages of both adsorbents. Especially, this research focused on the removal of high cencentrated perchlorate ion from demilitarization solution. The total amount of the adsorbed perchlorate ion is increased considerably with mixed resins between mono functional anion exchange resin and granular active carbon from a single adsorbent. Results demonstated that this process not only improve the efficiency of adsorbing perchlorate, but save the time, space and cost for treating perchlotrate waste solution, because of reducing organic contaminant removing process. The interference effects from coexisting anions are not significant and can successfully applied to real demilitarization sample.

최근 들어 초지기의 고속화, 원료의 저급화, 가공작업의 온라인화에 따라 초지기 상에서 안 정된 조업성이 더욱 중요하게 부각되고 있다. 이러한 초지 시스랩의 변화에 따라 사이징 효과의 발현 속도에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 중성 사이징 시스템으로 ASA를 적용할 경우에는 초지기상에서 사이즈도의 대부분이 발현되기 때문에 온라인 후가공 작업의 안정성이 향상되며 사이즈프레스에서 조업성 역시 개선될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 가격이 저렴하고 국내 수급이 용이한 옥수수 양성전분을 ASA 유화안정제로 이용하기 위해서 OSA (Octenyl Succinic Anhydride)를 이용한 에스테르화 및 산가수분해를 통하 여 ASA 에멀션의 안정성 및 사이징 효과를 개선시킨 전분을 개발하고 그 효과를 규명하고자 하였 다. 이를 위해 전분을 FT-IR을 이용하여 분석하고 호액의 pH, 전기전도도, 전하밀도, 점도 변화 등 을 측정하였을 뿐 아니라 ASA 유화액의 pH, 전기전도도, 시간에 따른 가수분해 안정성 등을 평가 하였다. 또한 ASA 에멀션의 입도 변화 섬유에 대한 흡착특성과 수초지의 사이즈도를 평가하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같았다. 첫째,OSA 전분의 사용에 따라 전분 호화액의 pH와 전기전도도의 변화는 나타나지 않았 다. 전하밀도는 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하였으며 호화액의 점도는 상숭하였다. 또 OSA 전분의 적 용이 수초지의 사이즈도에는 영향을 주지 않았다. 그러나 OSA 전분을 사용하여 제조된 ASA 유화 액의 가수분해 안정성은 향상되었다. 이것은 콜로이드 상의 ASA 입자를 캡슐화 하는데 있어 소수성 을 띠고 있는 OSA 전분이 보다 강하고 안정하게 흡착하기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다. 둘째, 전분의 호화 시 H2S04을 사용하여 전분의 산 가수분해를 유도할 수 있었다. 이를 통 하여 전분 호화액의 pH는 낮아지고 전기전도도는 증가하였으나 전하밀도의 변화는 없었다. 또한 겔 화 온도가 낮아지고 저온에서의 점도가 상승하는 변화를 나타냈다. IN-H2S04를 2.3%까지 첨가하였 을 때 ASA 에멀션의 입도가 더욱 감소하였고 섬유에 대한 흡착량이 증가하였으며 수초지의 사이즈 도가 향상되었다. 특히 기존에 사용되어 오던 감자 양성전분에 비해 최대 90%까지 사이즈도의 향상 이 있었다.

This study investigated antithrombotic and hypocholesterolemic activities of defatted soybean grits (DSG) and fermented DSG (FD). The FD was prepared by the solid state fermentation using Bacillus subtilis NUC1 at $40^{\circ}C$ for 24h. The water extracts of fermented DSG (FDW) exhibited higher fibrinolytic activity and inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by ADP than water extracts of DSG (DW). However, the DW and FDW inhibited HMG-CoA reductase activity and significantly decreased the intracellular cholesterol contents in HepG2 cells. In addition, DW treatment did not show any cholesterol adsorption capacity, while FDW demonstrated the highest cholesterol adsorption by 90%. The results suggest that fermented DSG have significant antithrombotic and hypocholesterolemic effects in vitro and these activities were improved during fermentation by B. subtilis NUC1.

The cesium (Cs) removal from the contaminated water system has been considered to be difficult because the cesium likes to exist as soluble phases such as ion and complexes than the solid in water system. Many researches have focused on developing the breakthrough adsorbent to increase the cesium removal efficiency in water. In this study, the laboratory scale experiments were performed to investigate the feasibility of the adsorption process using the bamboo charcoal for the Cs contaminated water system. The Cs removal efficiency of the bamboo charcoal were measured and the optimal adsorption conditions were determined by the adsorption batch experiments. Total 5 types of commercialized bamboo charcoals in Korea were used to identify their surface properties from SEM-EDS and XRD analyses and 3 types of bamboo charcoals having large specific surface areas were used for the adsorption batch experiment. The batch experiments to calculate the Cs removal efficiency were performed at conditions of various Cs concentration (0.01 - 10 mg/L), pH (3 - 11), temperature ($5-30^{\circ}C$), and adsorption time (10 - 120 min.). Experimental results were fitted to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm curve and their adsorption constants were determined to understand the adsorption properties of bamboo charcoal for Cs contaminated water system. From results of SEM-EDS analyses, the surfaces of bamboo charcoal particles were composed of typical fiber structures having various pores and dense lamella structures in supporting major adsorption spaces for Cs. From results of adsorption batch experiments, the Cs-133 removal efficiency of C type bamboo charcoal was the highest among those of 3 bamboo charcoal types and it was higher than 75 % (maximum of 82 %) even when the initial Cs concentration in water was lower than 1.0 mg/L, suggesting that the adsorption process using the bamboo charcoal has a great potential to remove Cs from the genuine Cs contaminated water, of which Cs concentration is low (< 1.0 mg/L) in general. The high Cs removal efficiency of bamboo charcoal was maintained in a relatively wide range of temperatures and pHs, supporting that the usage of the bamboo charcoal is feasible for various types of water. Experimental results were similar to the Langmuir adsorption model and the maximum amount of Cs adsorption (qm:mg/g) was 63.4 mg/g, which was higher than those of commercialized adsorbents used in previous studies. The surface coverage (${\theta}$) of bamboo charcoal was also maintained in low when the Cs concentration in water was < 1.0 mg/L, investigating that the Cs contaminated water can be remediated up with a small amount of bamboo charcoal.

뽕잎의 지금까지 박ㄹ혀진 생리활성은 중금속 흡착과 해독효과, 황산화 효과, 혈중지질 억제효과 및 혈당강하 효과를 들 수 있는데, 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 뽕잎이 Cd과 Pb같은 중금속에 대한 흡착 및 해독작용에 미치는 영향을 조사해 본 결과, 납중독으로 인하여 감소된 Hb와 Haematocritcl가 뽕잎 투여로 증가되었고 특히 gpa합성에 관여하는 DALAD효소 활성을 증가시켰다. 또한 뇨로의 Pb의 배설 효과가 뽕잎 투여로 증진되었으며 각 조직으로의 Pb축적을 감소시켰다. Cdwndehr으로 중독시킨 흰쥐에서도 감소된 Hd와 Haematocritcl가 뽕잎투여로 증가되었고, 특히 간조직 중의 Cd축적을 61%로 감소시켜 유의성있게 감소시켰다. 또한 뽕잎투여로 인하여 변으로의 Cd의 배설효과는 38%였고 이는 녹차투여 효솨보다는 낮은 수준이었다. 2)뽕잎의 향산화 효과는 녹차와 거의 비슷하였고 특히 혐기 처리함으로써 그 활성이 증가하였다. 또한 뽕잎중의 황산화 활성 성분은 10여종 flavonoidfb 이었고 그 중 quercetin이 가장 높은 황산화 활성을 나타냈다. 특히 dlavonidfb 화합물 중 kaempferol계열의 화합뭉이 황산화 효과가 높음을 알수 있었다. 3) 뽕잎의 고지혈 억제작용에 미치는 영향을 알아본 결과 뽕잎은 혈중 총 콜레스테롤이 차지하는 비율을 보였고 특히 혈중 중성지질 함량을 감소시킴으로써 정상의 80%수준까지 회복시켰다. 또한 콜레스테롤 생합성에 관여하는 효소활성을 뽕잎의 메탄올 추출물 중 물분획뭉이 59.9%수준으로 억제시켰고 지방분해효소 활성은 유의적인 수준은 아니었지만 16% 증가시켰다. 4) 뽕잎의 혈당강하 효과는 뽕잎을 질소가스를 이용하여 혐기처리하는 경우 유의적으로 그 효과가 증강되었다. 또한 뽕잎은 대조약물인 acarbose의 10배 용량에서 대조약물보다 23% 이상의 혈당강하 효과를 나타냈다. 이들의 혈당강하 효과는 같은 농도에서 인슐린 함량을 27%회복시켰으며 특히 surcrose와 maltose와 같은 이당류를 부하시켰을 때 혈당 강하 효과는 유의적이었다. 이는 뽕잎의 혈당강화 효과는 인슐린생합성 증가에 의한 것보다는 glucosidase의 활성을 억제시키는 기전이 더 많이 관여하는 것으로 판단할수 있었다. 또한 뽕잎 중의 혈당강하 성분으로 알려진 1-deoxynojirimycin 함량은 혐기처리로 인하여 그 함량이 5%정도 증가됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 뽕잎의 생리활성 결과에 기초할 때, 뽕잎은 고지혈증을 포함한 성인병 질환의 예방과 회복에 관련되는 조절기능을 생체에 충분히 발휘할수 있는 기능성 식품의 중요한 자원으로 이용될 수 있으리라 판단된다.

In this study, an adsorbent prepared by natural drying of iron hydroxide-based sludge collected from settling basin at a mine drainage treatment facility located in Gangneung, Gangwon-do was used to remove fluoride in an artificial fluoride solution and mine drainage, and the adsorption characteristics of the adsorbent were investigated. As a result of analyzing the chemical composition, mineralogical properties, and specific surface area of the adsorbent used in the experiment, iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) occupies 79.2 wt.% as the main constituent, and a peak related to calcite (CaCO₃) in the crystal structure analysis was analyzed. It was also identified that an irregular surface and a specific surface area of 216.78 m²·g^-1. In the indoor batch-type experiment, the effect of changes in reaction time, pH, initial fluoride concentration and temperature on the change in adsorption amount was analyzed. The adsorption of fluoride showed an adsorption amount of 3.85 mg·g^-1 16 hours after the start of the reaction, and the increase rate of the adsorption amount gradually decreased. Also, as the pH increased, the amount of fluoride adsorption decreased, and in particular, the amount of fluoride adsorption decreased rapidly around pH 5.5, the point of zero charge at which the surface charge of the adsorbent changes. Meanwhile, the results of the isotherm adsorption experiment were applied to the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm adsorption models to infer the fluoride adsorption mechanism of the used adsorbent. To understand the thermodynamic properties of the adsorbent using the Van't Hoff equation, thermodynamic constants 𝚫H° and 𝚫G° were calculated using the adsorption amount information obtained by increasing the temperature from 25℃ to 65℃ to determine the adsorption characteristics of the adsorbent. Finally, the adsorbent was applied to the mine drainage having a fluoride concentration of about 12.8 mg·L^-1, and the fluoride removal rate was about 50%.
