전 세계적으로 미세먼지는 심각한 사회문제이다. 우리나라 또한 중국의 미세먼지와 디젤 자동차 급증 등에 의한 오염으로 인하여 호흡 시 들이마시는 공기의 질이 많이 나빠지고 있는 추세이다. 이로 인해 집 안의 환기를 위해 창문을 열거나 외출 후 귀가했을 때 옷에 붙은 미세먼지들에 의하여 집 안에 미세먼지가 쌓이게 됨으로써 건강을 위협할 수 있는 요소가 된다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하고자 청소뿐만 아니라 공기청정 기능도 수행하게 되는 효율적인 측면을 가진 공기청정 기능을 탑재한 로봇청소기를 개발하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 로봇청소기의 초음파 센서와 미세먼지를 사용하여 자동으로 로봇청소기와 공기청정 기능을 탑재한 로봇청소기에 대한 연구 결과에 관해 기술하였다.

Membrane separation process is considered as an alternative of conventional water purification system using coagulationㆍsedimentation＋sand filtration. In this study, it was examined that the application possibility of Hollowfiber Microfiltration membrane for water purification process. A $20m^3/day$ scale pilot plant was used for studying the possibility of long-term operation and the stability of water quality under the optimum conditions, 0.03m/h permeate flux, filtration for 10 minutes, pause for 2 minutes(including air-scrubbing for 30 seconds), obtained by lab-scale experiment. As a result, it was proved stability of pilot plant over one year and filtrate quality(Turbidity. SS etc). Therefore, it was proved that membrane separation process using Hollowfiber Microfiltration membrane can be applied for water purification system

Recently great efforts and investment have been made in order to achieve economical production by applying new methods like minimization of man-Power into construction field. This paper describe the performance of water purification, to which living organisms can adapt, and the physical properties of porous concrete with continuous voids. Although conventional concrete has been regarded as a destroyer of nature, water and air can pass freely through concrete when it is made porous by forming continuous voids. this not only enables plants to vegetables, but also makes it possible for microscopic animals and plants, including bacteria, to attach to and inhabit uneven surface as well as internal voids when the concrete is provided in a natural water area or waterside area. As a result, Porous concrete using recycled aggregate improved the performance of water purification.

This research investigated the exhaust gas purification system of gaseous ozone for pigpens. This system is applied to exhaust the gas outside after purification with ozone. This is very effective for purification and simple. And because this is not set in the pigpens, this system is not influence of pollution gas. This is effected to extend the life time of this system and this system is applied for non-window pigpens which does not need the ventilation.

Experiments have been conducted to investigate emission characteristics of compressed natural gas fueled vehicle(CNGV) by the FTP 75 mode test. Its purification technologies were also investigated. It was found that CNGV was operated on the rich A/F condition by comparison with gasoline vehicle. The Pd catalyst was higher in methane purification performance than Pt and Pd/Pt/Rh catalysts. Up to 60% portion of the accumulative HC emissions(that contains above 80% methane) form CNGV occurs during the first phase of the FTP 75 mode. CO that is exhausted at rich conditions of the air-fuel ratio more than lean conditions should be used for the catalytic reduction of NOX, because the methane is not the effective reduction for NOX in the CNGV with 3-way catalyst system.

The strength, water permeability, and photo-degradation efficiency of NOx of porous concrete with a new concept were studied in this paper. The porous concrete was comprised of coarse aggregate of maximum size 40 mm, cement, silica fume, water and air-entraining(AE) water reducing agent. The strength of porous concrete was strongly related to its matrix proportion and compaction energy. An experimental test was carried out to study the parameters of cement proportions and silica fume content for pavement applications of porous concrete which were paving a footpath, a bikeway, a parking lot, and a driveway. The regressed equations of relation-ships between compressive strength and flexural strength, and coefficient permeability and void ratios were indicated as y=7.69x+71.74 and $y=0.42e^{0.28x}$. A method of making an air purification-functioning road, which was spraying a mixture of a photocatalyst, cement, and water onto the surface of the road, was suggested.

This study evaluated the nitrogen oxide (NO_x) removal efficiency by air purification concrete blocks with titanium dioxide (TiO₂). The concrete in the mixtures had a 30% water:cement ratio, to which TiO₂ was added at 0%, 5%, and 10% of cement weight. The compressive strength reduction rate and removal efficiency of NO_x were investigated. The result of the compressive strength test in the study indicated that addition rate of TiO₂ did not lead to signifcant effect. In terms of the average removal efficiency of NO_x, mix No. 1 using a TiO₂ mixing ratio of 0% had a removal efficiency of 0.57% on average; thus, the removal effect w as not significant. For the other samples prepared by mixing, the average removal efficiencies for mix No. 2 (5% TiO₂) were 58.86% and 62.05% for normal and washing surface treatments, respectively, and those of sample No. 3 (10% TiO₂) were 59.94% and 67.61%. mixs No. 4 (5%) and No. 5 (10%), in which TiO₂ diluted with distilled water was sprayed onto the block surface, had an average NO_x removal efficiency of 61.72% and 68.48%, respectively. In terms of NOx removal efficiency, Mixs No. 3 and No. 5 with 10% TiO₂ were better than Mixs No. 2 and No. 4 with 5% TiO₂. In addition, analyzing the NO_x removal efficiency results from the fixing method, it was capable to apply mixing (washing) and the diluted spray methods. Therefore, it was found that the diluted spray method applied in this study can be employed in any manufacture of air purification concrete blocks.

With architectural technology, a building has been a far dense and close. So the thermal environment of the building has become pleasant, but the quality of indoor air has been degraded. Using synthetic products for construction materials and furniture indoors escalates the concentration of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) at indoor air, threatening the health of the residents. To reduce the concentration of volatile organic compounds at indoor air, many methods are designed, and of late, concern has been increased about the effect of air purification using air purifying plants. Field measurements were performed using Aglaonema brevispathum, Pachira aquatica and Ficus benjamiana, which were verified as air-purifying plants by NASA. The effect of reducing the concentration of air contaminants by plant studied in a full scale mock-up model. The variations of concentration of Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Formaldehyde were monitored. In most cases, the effect was excellent in Toluene and formaldehyde in summer.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry announced in 2001 that the overall amount of paddy land set aside for rice will be cut down by 12% by 2005, decreasing from 1.08 million to 953,000 hectares. When evaluating the value of paddy rice systems, the multi-function of paddy systems in the monsoon climate is vital importance. The main functions of paddy rice systems are to conserve biodiversity and maintain sustainability. Some crucial environmental benefits of the paddy rice systems include: flood prevention, recharge of water resources, water purification, soil erosion and landslide prevention, soil purification, landscape preservation and air purification. The paddy rice systems in Korea, which are more diverse than upland crop systems, are known to be composed of 14 orders, 36 families and 134 species. The sustain ability of paddy rice production systems can never be overestimated. Rice is part of the culture and even the heart of spiritual life in the area under the monsoon climate. Therefore paddy rice systems should be preserved with the highest priority being the enhancement of the systems' multi-function. As an outlook to future research, the need of joint and interdisciplinary research projects between economists and natural scientists at inland as well as international levels were emphasized in establishing the development of counter-measure logic through actual proofed analysis.
