최근 선저 부착 생물에 관한 문제가 환경오염으로 확대되고 그에 따른 여러 가지의 선체 방오 방법 중 특히 주석(Sn)의 화합물질의 화학반응으로 따개비 등의 오염 요소를 방지하는 기존 방법이 수은, 구리 등의 유독성 화합물에 의해 임포섹스 유발과 그에 따른 2차 오염 확산의 요인이 되어 2012년 7월부터는 유기주석화합물(TBT) 도료를 사용한 신규 선박은 규제되는 등 그 심각성이 대두하고 있다. TBT는 매우 미량의 농도에서도 다양한 생물학적 저해영향을 일으키는 것이 알려져 이를 대체하기 위한 여러 화학물질이 개발됐다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 추세에 따라서, 유독성 화합물의 독성을 벗어나 저 전류의 고주파 고전압 펄스 에너지를 이용한 새로운 환경조성을 통해서 부착성 패류의 선저 부착에 대한 특성을 연구하였으며, 특히 환경오염 및 해양오염에 영향이 적은 방오시스템을 개발하고자 하였다. 또한 본 연구에서 적용된 고전압 펄스 시스템을 이용하여 선체의 부식정도를 저감 가능한 시스템을 구현을 위한 기초 실험과 현재 이슈화 되고 있는 선박평형수의 살균장치에 적용하는 파생연구들을 통하여 해양오염방지 요소들을 겨냥하여 후속연구를 위한 토대를 마련하고자 하였다.

Many alternative biocidal additives were applied to antifouling paint to replace TBT, and Sea-Nine 211 is one of alternating organic booster compounds used in antifouling paint. In this study, extent of Sea-Nine 211 toxicity on marine benthic bivalve is evaluated. Sea-Nine 211 was injected to surf clam, Pseudocardium sachalinensis, that inhabitate northern part of Gangwon Province, Korea. Survival rate of the clam and xenobiotics metabolizing enzyme activities in digestive gland were measured during 4 day-exposure period. The results were compared with those of TBT exposed clam. There were no mortality of clam in the solvent (DMSO) control group and the three Sea-Nine 211 exposure groups (5, 25, 50 mg kg$^{-1}$ body weight), while the clam exposed to 1, 2 and 5 mg kg$^{-1}$ TBT chloride (TBTC) demonstrated 70, 30 and 0% survival rate, respectively. The Sea-Nine 211 exposure group showed a tendency of cytochrome P450 (CYP) induction according to the exposure duration, on the other hand, CYP content was decreased in the TBT exposure group. NADPH cytochrome P450 reductase activity slightly increase according to the exposure duration in the Sea-Nine 211 exposure group, while TBTC inhibit its activity as CYP content. Moreover, there was no significant change of NADH cytochrome b5 reductate activity in the clam epxosed to Sea-Nine 211. In the TBTC exposure group, its activity increased in early exposure period and then significantly decreased the rest of exposure period. All the results indicate that Sea-Nine 211 demonstrated a tendency to induce CYP level, while TBTC inhibits the CYP level, NADPH cytochrome P450 reductase and NADH cytochrome b5 reductase activities.

Bans on TBT based antifouling paints have been drafted since 1998 by meeting 42, 43, 45 and 46 for the MEPC(Marine Environmental Protection Committee) of the International Marine Organization, and decided finally at a Diplomatic Conference of the IMO in October 2001. It was a key issue that there should be a global prohibition on the presence of organo-tin compounds in ships by 1 Jan. 2008. TBT Paint Waste from ship happens by vast quantity since 2003. This paper suggests a method to design Treatment System for TBT Paint Waste from Ship. The result of measurement in pyrolysis system were removal rate on 99％. at hight temperature in 1000$^{\circ}C$ and reaction time 1hr. TBT removal was more that 99％.

In this study, we aimed to assess the toxicity of biocide present in antifouling paint on embryos of sea urchin, Mesocentrotus nudus. Three types of biocide (Sea-nine 211, Diuron, and Irgarol 1051) were selected for the exposure experiment. The EC₅₀ of Sea-nine, Diuron, and Irgarol on the fertilization rate of sea urchin were 32.8 ㎍ L^-1, 7,975 ㎍ L^-1 and 6,995 ㎍ L^-1, respectively. The EC₅₀ of Sea-nine, Diuron, and Irgarol on the development rate of sea urchin were 31.6 ㎍ L^-1, 3,044 ㎍ L^-1, and 2,267 ㎍ L^-1, respectively. The highest toxicity was observed in the presence of Sea-nine.

Pharmaceutical use accounts for a great part of articles and papers on crosslinking of polymers. Crosslinking of polymers used for tissue engineering and drug delivery respects non-cytotoxicity and in situ gelling. The crosslinking of polymers is aimed not only at the improvement of modulus, chemical resistance, and thermal resistance, but also at endowing them with such functions as metal adsorption, antifouling, and ion exchange via crosslinked segments. Smart polymers responding to environmental change, and cosslinking mediated by light, enzyme, natural compound and in aqueous medium in consideration of environment are being studied. Developing new polymeric materials is essential along with the pharmaceutics aiming at the longevity of 120 years old. Functionalization and property adjustment of polymers through crosslinking will be done more delicately. Hydrogels will be focused on injectable and in situ gel forming. In the coating industry crosslinking system with low non-toxicity and low energy consumption will be developed in consideration of workers and environment.

TBT Paint Wastes from ship have been produced by vast quantity since 2003. This paper suggests a method to design Treatment System for TBT Paint Waste from Ship. The organotion compound was dissolved by heating, and the organic matters was oxidized and turned into inorganotins, then they were stabilized in the end. At 500^{\circ}C$, the organotin compound which heated for one hour was removed by 58%, and in 1000^{\circ}C$ the organotin compound was treated by 99.9% after and hour of heating treatment.

Metal pipes are used in a wide range of applications, from plumbing systems of large construction sites to small devices such as medical tools. When a liquid is enforced to flow through a metal pipe, a higher flow rate is beneficial for higher efficiency. Using high pressures can enhance the flow rate yet can be harmful for medical applications. Thus, we consider an optimal geometrical design to increase the flow rate in medical devices. In this study, we focus on cannulas, which are widely used small metal pipes for surgical procedures, such as liposuction. We characterize the internal flow rate driven by a negative pressure and explore its dependence on the key design parameters. We quantitatively analyze the suction characteristics for each design variable by conducting computational fluid dynamics simulations. In addition, we build a suction performance measurement system which enables the translational motion of cannulas with pre-programmed velocity for experimental validation. The inner diameter, section geometry, and hole configuration are the design factors to be evaluated. The effect of the inner diameter dominates over that of section geometry and hole configuration. In addition, the circular tube shape provides the maximum flow rate among the elliptical geometries. Once the flow rate exceeds a critical value, the rate becomes independent of the number and width of the suction holes. Finally, we introduce a slippery liquid-infused nanoporous surface (SLIPS) coating using nanoparticles and hydrophobic lubricants that effectively improves the flow rate and antifouling property of cannulas without altering the geometrical design parameter.
