The residual chlorine concentration is an essential factor to secure reliable water quality in the water distribution systems. The chlorine concentration decays along the pipeline system and the main processes of the reaction can be divided into the bulk decay and the wall decay mechanisms. Using EPANET 2.0, it is possible to predict the chlorine decay through bulk decay and wall decay based on the pipeline geometry and the hydraulic analysis of the water distribution system. In this study, we tried to verify the predictability of EPANET 2.0 using data collected from experimental practices. We performed chlorine concentration measurement according to various Reynolds numbers in a pilot-scale water distribution system. The chlorine concentration was predicted using both bulk decay model and wall decay model. As a result of the comparison between experimental data and simulated data, the performance of the limited $1^{st}$-order model was found to the best in the bulk decay model. The wall decay model simulated the initial decay well, but the overall chlorine decay cannot be properly predicted. Simulation also indicated that as the Reynolds number increased, the impact of the wall.

Chlorine bulk decay tests were carried out by bottle test under controlled conditions in a laboratory. Experiments were performed at different temperatures: $5^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$, and the water temperatures when samples were taken from the effluent just before entering to its distribution system. 38 bulk tests were performed for water of Al (water treatment plant), 4 bulk tests for A2 (large service reservoir), and A3(pumping station). Residual chlorine concentrations in the amber bottles were measured over time till about 100 hours and bulk decay coefficients were evaluated by assuming first-order, parallel first-order, second-order. and $n^{th}-order$ reaction. The $n^{th}-order$ coefficients were obtained using Fourth-order Runge-Kutta Method. A good-fit by the average coefficient of determination ($R^2$) was first-order ($R^2=0.90$) < parallel first-order ($R^2{_{fast}}=0.92$, $R^2{_{slow}}=0.95$) < second-order ($R^2=0.95$) < $n^{th}-order$ ($R^2=0.99$). But if fast reaction of parallel first-order bulk decay were applied to the effluent of large service reservoir with ca. 20 hours of travel time and slow reaction in the water distribution system following the first 20 hours, parallel first-order bulk decay would be best and easy for application of water quality modeling technique.

This study developed prediction models of chlorine bulk decay coefficient by each condition of water quality, measuring chlorine bulk decay coefficients of the water and water quality by water purification processes. The second-reaction order of chlorine were selected as the optimal reaction order of research area because the decay of chlorine was best represented. Chlorine bulk decay coefficients of the water in conventional processes, advanced processes before rechlorination was respectively $5.9072(mg/L)^{-1}d^{-1}$ and $3.3974(mg/L)^{-1}d^{-1}$, and $1.2522(mg/L)^{-1}d^{-1}$ and $1.1998(mg/L)^{-1}d^{-1}$ after rechlorination. As a result, the reduction of organic material concentration during the retention time has greatly changed the chlorine bulk decay coefficient. All the coefficients of determination were higher than 0.8 in the developed models of the chlorine bulk decay coefficient, considering the drawn chlorine bulk decay coefficient and several parameters of water quality and statistically significant. Thus, it was judged that models that could express the actual values, properly were developed. In the meantime, the chlorine bulk decay coefficient was in proportion to the initial residual chlorine concentration and the concentration of rechlorination; however, it may greatly vary depending on rechlorination. Thus, it is judged that it is necessary to set a plan for the management of residual chlorine concentration after experimentally assessing this change, utilizing the methodology proposed in this study in the actual fields. The prediction models in this study would simulate the reduction of residual chlorine concentration according to the conditions of the operation of water purification plants and the introduction of rechlorination facilities, more reasonably considering water purification process and the time of chlorination. In addition, utilizing the prediction models, the reduction of residual chlorine concentration in the supply areas can be predicted, and it is judged that this can be utilized in setting plans for the management of residual chlorine concentration.

하수재이용수는 부족한 수자원 문제를 해결할 수 있는 대표적인 대안으로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하수재이용수의 공급시 유리잔류염소의 수체감소 특성을 온도별(5, 15, $25^{\circ}C$), 초기 주입농도별(1, 2, 4, 6 mg/L)로 살펴보았고 그 결과를 이용하여 최적 염소주입량을 산정하는 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 하수재이용수는 정수와 비교하여 염소주입시 반응속도가 초기에 매우 빠르게 나타나 기존의 general first-order decay model ($C_t=C_o(e^{-k_bt})$)을 사용하기에 부적합하여 exponential firstorder decay model ($C_t=a+b(e^{-k_bt})$)을 적용한 결과 유리잔류염소의 감소를 더욱 정확하게 예측할 수 있었다($r^2$=0.872~0.988). 수체감소계수를 산출한 결과 초기주입량 1 mg/L, $25^{\circ}C$의 조건에서 653 $day^{-1}$로 가장 크게 나타났고, $5^{\circ}C$, 초기주입량 6 mg/L의 조건에서 3.42 $day^{-1}$로 가장 낮았다. 수체감소계수는 온도가 증가함에 따라 수체감소계수는 증가하는 경향을 나타내었고, 초기 주입농도가 증가함에 따라 수체감소계수는 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 적정 초기 염소요구량을 산정하기 위해서 전체 반응기간을 0~30분, 30~5,040분으로 구분한 후, 30~5,040분의 실험결과를 사용한 예측식을 사용함으로써 더욱 정확한 염소주입량 산정을 할 수 있었다. 또한, 온도별로 최적 염소주입량을 산정한 결과 염소주입 후 4시간이 경과한 시점에서 유리잔류염소 0.2 mg/L를 유지하기 위해서는 온도(x)별 초기 염소요구량(y)의 관계를 y = 1.409 + 0.450x와 같이 얻을 수 있었다.

In the present contribution the Encounter Theory (ET) (the prototype of the classical Collision Theory in rarefied gases) concepts for widely occurring diffusion assisted irreversible bulk reactions A + A ${\rightarrow}$ C and A + B ${\rightarrow}$ C in liquid solutions examined by the authors in the literature are analyzed and compared with each other for these different types of reactions. It is shown that for a particular case of equal initial concentrations $[A]_0=[B]_0$ in the reaction A + B ${\rightarrow}$ C, when the kinetics of both reactions A + A ${\rightarrow}$ C and A + B ${\rightarrow}$ C in the framework of formal chemical kinetics and ET are the same, the accumulation of macroscopic correlations breaking the concepts of independent encounters and leading to the Generalized Encounter Theory (GET) are drastically different. The influence of the force interaction and the decay of nonstable reactants on the time behavior the macroscopic correlations is also briefly discussed.

본 연구에서는 배급수계통에서 잔류염소와 THMs의 분포를 예측하는 방안을 제시하였다. 잔류염소와 THMs의 등의 수질변화에 대해 현장조사를 실시하였고, 수체와 관벽에 대한 잔류염소 감소계수와 THMs의 생성계수를 산출하여 관망해석에 의한 수질모델링에 적용하였다. 병실험을 통해 잔류염소 병렬 1차 수체 반응계수를 구하고, 5개 관벽 감소 모델을 비교 평가하여 1차 관벽 감소계수 산출하고 적용했을 때 잔류염소 현장 측정값과 관망 수질모델링에 의한 예측간의 평균절대오차 및 평균제곱근오차가 각각 0.03, 0.037 mg/L로 가장 작았다. 또한 병실험에 의한 THMs생성량을 비선형 회귀분석으로 1차 생성계수를 구하고 현장 측정값과 비교하였다. 그 결과, 9월의 현장 측정값과 예측값의 결정계수 $R^2$는 0.98, 11월에는 0.82로 예측이 가능하였다.

PDP를 비롯한 형광체를 이용하는 디스플레이 분야에서 현재 마이크로미터($\mu}$-meter) 이상의 크기를 갖는 기존의 벌크(bulk) 형광체를 능가하는 성능과 새로운 물성을 나타내는 나노형광체(nanophosphor) 개발 및 응용에 대한 연구가 절대적으로 필요한 시점이다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 나노 사이즈의 평균 입자 크기를 갖는 구형의 $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn$ 형광체 입자를 초음파 분무열 분해(ultrasonic spray pyrolysis) 방법을 이용하여 합성하였다. 구형의 형광체 입자의 크기는 분무 장치의 droplet separator를 도입하여 조절하였다. 2 mol%의 망간을 도핑하여 합성한 $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn$ 입자는 시간이 지남에 따라 감소되고, 최근에 고상에서 합성하여 상용화된 물질에 비교할 수 있을 만한 빛 방출의 세기를 가졌다. 형광체 입자의 크기는 무기질 염의 농도가 0에서 5 M로 증가함에 따라 $1\;{\mu}m$에서 $0.2\;{\mu}m$로 감소하였다. 0.5 M 이상의 농도의 전구체 용액에서 얻어진 형광체 입자의 빛 방출은 상용화되어 있는 물질과의 비교를 통해 알아보았다.
