  • Among the biodegradable liquid waste treatment and disposal methods, ocean dumping is a cost-effective and productive manner considering reuse point of view However, when biodegradable liquid waste is dumped in the ocean, oxygen consumption by the decomposition of organic matter must be considered. The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum allowable concentration and dumping rate in the southern waters of the East Sea based on dissolved oxygen level. Streeter and Phelps' model has been used to determine the maximum allowable concentration. Factors in this model, deoxygenation constants and reaeration coefficients, have been determined by appling oxygen consumption method and closed system model. Deoxygenation constants and reaeration coefficients from surface to each standard depth are $0.24\~0.29/day\;and\;0.03\~0.39/day$ in summer, $0.17\~0.20/day\;and\;0.04\~0.56/day$ in winter, respectively. The allowable organic matter concentration($mgBOD/\iota$) to the dissolved oxy-gen sag value of $5mg/{\iota}$ is represented $17.23\times(H)^{-0.37}$ in summer, and $64.96\times(H)^{-0.52}$ in winter by mixing depth(H, m). Csanady's experiment has been applied to estimate the optimum dumping rate. The optimum dumping rate($R,\;m^3/sec$) can be written as a product of the beam(b, m) and the draft(h, m) of vessel, and biochemical oxygen demand of waste($L_n,\;mg/{\iota}$) $R=275{\times}bh^{0.63}L_n^{-1}$ in summer $=745{\times}bh^{0.48}L_n^{-1}$ in winter. The difference of dumping rate between in summer and winter is due to the oxygen distribution.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the potential prebiotic activity of an extract from yacon tuberous root on the growth of probiotic strains Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus. Results showed that the amount of fructooligosaccharides per 100 g fresh root was the highest (7.60 g), followed by sucrose (0.72 g), fructose (0.34 g), and glucose (0.26 g). The in vitro culture test of intestinal beneficial bacteria, including Bifidobacterium longum BORI, B. bifidum BGN4, and B. lactis AD011 showed effective growth on the MRS-Yacon medium containing yacon extract, whereas the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus AD031, L. plantarum BH02, and L. fermentum BH03 did not differ from that of the control groups. In particular, B. longum BORI showed better growth than the control group after 10 h of incubation. These results indicate that yacon can be a natural prebiotic source of fructooligosaccharides, which can exert a prebiotic effect on intestinal microflora by selectively enriching Bifidobacterium.

  • 해안과 하천이 위치해 있는 낙동강하구의 담 염수 경계면 추적 연구에서 담 염수 경계면의 담수기원특성을 분석하기 위해서는 담 염수 경계면을 이루는 담수의 기원이 하천 혹은 지하수 인지를 규명하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 담 염수 경계면에 있는 담수는 일반적으로 하천과 지하수에 의한 것으로, 낙동강하구 일원을 대상으로 지하수공 내 해수침투 여부 파악을 위해 화학적(유기물) 분석을 실시하였다. 이와 아울러 낙동강하구 일원에서 담 염수 경계면에서 채취한 수질시료의 담수기원을 분석하기 위하여 K-water연구원 수질안전센터에 지하수공 7개지점(BH-1~7호공)의 심도별 물시료 2~4개지점(총 23개 지점), 하천(1개 지점), 해수 및 해안유출수(각 1개 지점)를 포함한 26개 시료를 LC-OCD(Liquid Chromatography-Organic Carbon Detector)로 분석하였다. LC-OCD 분석결과 특성은 기본적으로 유기물질이 물에서 유래한 aquagenic 혹은 토양층에서 유래한 pedogenic 유기물질 인지에 달려있다. 댐 또는 하천에서 pedogenic 유기물의 농도는 일반적으로 유역분지의 수문 또는 수리지질학적 경로에 의존한다. pedogenic 유기물들은 주로 상대적으로 작은 분자량을 갖는 친수성, 높은 사슬밀도 및 내화성 분자특성을 갖는 펄빅산으로 구성된다. aquagenic 유기물질은 수생 식물성 생물이나 플랑크톤의 분해 산물로서 세포벽에서 유래된 peptidoglycans와 고분자량의 polysaccharides 등을 포함한다(Chio & Jung, 2008; Buffle, 1988). 담 염수 경계면 추적을 위한 7개 관측공의 심도별 수질시료는 하천, 해수, 그리고 해안유출수의 용존유기탄소를 분석하기 위하여 LC-OCD로 정밀분석하였다. 그 결과, humic, 휴믹물질의 산화물질인 building blocks, 생물고분자 물질(bio-polymers), neutrals, acids로 분석되었으며, 일반적인 자연유기물질의 기원은 pedogenic과 aquagenic 유기물질로 분류된다. IHSS 표준물질 분석 등을 통한 SUVA 값으로부터 자연유기물질의 기원정보를 제공하는 HS-Diagram으로 도시한 결과, 2018년 11월 2일 조사한 26개의 원수시료 전체는 pedogenic fulvic acid〉aquagenic fulvic acid으로 하천의 기원이 우세한 것으로 분석되었다. BH-1호공과 BH-6호공의 특정 1개구간 GL.-6m를 제외한 모든 구간에서 aquagenic FA의 지하수 기원으로 분석되었으며, 나머지 지하수공(BH-2, 3, 4, 5, 7)과 하천 및 해안유출수는 유역분지 수문학적 경로인 pedogenic FA의 하천 기원의 담수인 것으로 분석된다.

  • Underground urbanization appears to be a promising solution in response to the shortage of construction sites in the above-ground space. In this context, an accurate evaluation of a construction site ensures the long-term performance of geosystems. This study characterizes potential sites for complex plants built in underground space using geophysical methods (i.e., seismic refraction exploration and electrical resistivity survey) and in situ tests (i.e., standard penetration tests (SPTs) and downhole tests). SPTs are conducted in nine boreholes BH-1-BH-9 to estimate the groundwater level and vertical distribution of geological structures. The seismic refraction method enables us to obtain the elastic wave velocity and thickness of each soil layer for each cross-sectional area. An electrical resistivity survey conducted using the dipole array method provides the electrical resistivity profiles of the cross-sectional area. Data obtained using geophysical techniques are used to assess the classification of the soil layer and bedrock, particularly the fracture zone. This study suggests that geotechnical information using in situ tests and geophysical methods are useful references to design an underground complex plant construction.

  • Objective: Motion-corrected averaging with a single-shot technique was introduced for faster acquisition of late-gadolinium-enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging while free-breathing. We aimed to evaluate the image quality (IQ) of free-breathing motion-corrected single-shot LGE (moco-ss-LGE) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Materials and Methods: Between April and December 2019, 30 patients (23 men; median age, 48.5; interquartile range [IQR], 36.5-61.3) with HCM were prospectively enrolled. Breath-held single-shot LGE (bh-ss-LGE) and free-breathing moco-ss-LGE images were acquired in random order on a 3T MR system. Semi-quantitative IQ scores, contrast-to-noise ratios (CNRs), and quantitative size of myocardial scar were assessed on pairs of bh-ss-LGE and moco-ss-LGE. The mean ± standard deviation of the parameters was obtained. The results were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: The moco-ss-LGE images had better IQ scores than the bh-ss-LGE images (4.55 ± 0.55 vs. 3.68 ± 0.45, p < 0.001). The CNR of the scar to the remote myocardium (34.46 ± 11.85 vs. 26.13 ± 10.04, p < 0.001), scar to left ventricle (LV) cavity (13.09 ± 7.95 vs. 9.84 ± 6.65, p = 0.030), and LV cavity to remote myocardium (33.12 ± 15.53 vs. 22.69 ± 11.27, p < 0.001) were consistently greater for moco-ss-LGE images than for bh-ss-LGE images. Measurements of scar size did not differ significantly between LGE pairs using the following three different quantification methods: 1) full width at half-maximum method; 23.84 ± 12.88% vs. 24.05 ± 12.81% (p = 0.820), 2) 6-standard deviation method, 15.14 ± 10.78% vs. 15.99 ± 10.99% (p = 0.186), and 3) 3-standard deviation method; 36.51 ± 17.60% vs. 37.50 ± 17.90% (p = 0.785). Conclusion: Motion-corrected averaging may allow for superior IQ and CNRs with free-breathing in single-shot LGE imaging, with a herald of free-breathing moco-ss-LGE as the scar imaging technique of choice for clinical practice.
