A treatability study was conducted using a hydrocarbon-contaminated soil for the oPtimization of bioremediation strategy best fit to a given set of contamination. The applicability of nutrients, biosurfactant, and oil-degrading microorganisms were examined by monitoring $CO_2$ evolution and oil degradation The addition of inorganic nutrients in the form of slow released fertilizer accelerated the initial rate of $CO_2$ evolution by a factor of 3. The application of oil-degrading microorganisms did not significantly increased $CO_2$ evolution or biodegradation efficiency. Application of a commercial biosurfactant was most effect in terms of the total $CO_2$ evolution and the oil degradation rate. The results indicate that $CO_2$ evolution measurement was found to be a simple and reliable countermeasure of crude oil hydrocarbon mineralization for the rapid determination of the best-fit bioremediation strategy.

In urban environments, the surface land impermeability fundamentally related to urban growth emphasizes the environmental problems such as the storm water peak flow (so-called the urban flooding) and the pollution. The conventional urban drainage system provides a number of temporary reservoirs intercepting and retaining surface-derived pollutants following their introduction to and deposition upon the impermeable surface. Gully-pots are common features in urban drainage systems in Korea, which were installed for draining rainwater to prevent regurgitation in rainy season and retaining larger particles, hence minimizing pipe blockage problems. When the road runoff conveying sediment enters a gully-pot, the sediment mixes with the gully liquor causing direct pollution of receiving waters. The characteristics of local sediment contamination are usually related to the types of land use activities that take place or have taken place within the area., This study was undertaken to evaluate the spatial and temporal variations of the contamination of gully-pot sediments in Seoul with respect to heavy metals such as As, Cd, Co, Cr, Ni, Pb, Cu and Zn. The heavy metal data were examined according to the land use type. In this paper, sampling sites in Seoul were divided into six groups (commercial area, industrial area, residental area, motor way, rural area, and local pollution).

Understanding the distribution of heavy metals in sediment is necessary because labile heavy metals can partition into the water column and bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms. Here we investigated six heavy metals (Co, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in sediment cores using a five-step sequential leaching method to examine the occurrence of heavy metals in the sediment. The results showed that all elements, except Mn, are depleted in the exchangeable and carbonate fractions. However, heavy metal concentrations are much higher in the Fe-Mn oxide and organic matter fractions, especially for Cu, indicating enrichment in the organic matter fraction. Furthermore, contamination parameters (contamination factor and geoaccumulation index) indicate that Mn contamination is high, primarily derived from anthropogenic sources, presenting a potential risk to ecosystems in the Nakdong River.

고분자전해질 연료전지용 MEA(Membrane and Electrode Assembly)와 가축분뇨를 이용해 미생물연료전지(MFC)를 구동하였다. 여러 균을 혼합해 MFC를 구동했을 때 개별적으로 구동했을 때보다 높은 개회로전위(OCV)를 나타냈다. 돼지분뇨, 소분뇨, 닭분뇨, 오리 분뇨 중 돼지 분뇨를 이용했을 때 제일 높은 OCV 540mV를 보였다. 그리고 돼지분뇨에서 최고 $963mW/m^2$의 전력이 발생하였다. MFC 구동과정에서 MEA의 $Na^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $K^+$ 이온 및 불순물들에 의한 오염이 MFC의 낮은 성능의 한 원인임을 확인하였다.

연구목적은 자가부식 프라이머의 적용 시기에 따른 타액과 혈액 오염에 대한 결합력에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이었다. 유치 시편을 각각 10개씩 제작하여 대조군, 접착전 타액 오염, 접착제 중합후 타액 오염, 접착전 혈액 오염, 접착제 중합후 혈액 오염된 상황으로 2가지 종류의 자가부식 접착제와 복합레진을 적용하여 만능 물성 시험기로 전단결합강도를 측정, 분석하였다. 접착제 적용전 타액 오염(I군)시에는 대조군과 비교하여 결합력이 유사하거나 약간 감소되었으나, 통계학적 유의한 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 접착후 타액 오염(II군)이나 접착 전후의 혈액 오염(III, IV군)시 유의하게 결합력이 감소하였다. (P<0.01). Clearfil SE Bond가 AQ Bond보다 유의하게 높은 결합강도를 보였다(P<0.05).

본 연구에서는 하수슬러지 필터프레스 공정에서 발생하는 오염 여과포에 대하여 가압수 및 초음파 세척에 대한 재생효율을 평가하였다. 이를 위하여 3톤 규모 하수슬러지 수열탄화물 처리 필터프레스로부터 오염된 여과포를 채취하였다. 먼저, 필터프레스 여과포의 오염 특성을 평가하였다. 오염 여과포의 위치에 따른 공기투과도와 단위질량을 측정하였으며, 새 여과포 측정값과 비교하였다. 다음으로 오염 여과포 전체 면적에 대하여 공기투과도 및 단위질량 분포를 지도화하여 오염 특성을 평가하였다. 마지막으로 오염 여과포를 대상으로 3 bar의 압력 세정 및 34, 76, 120, 168 kHz 주파수의 초음파 세척을 수행하였다. 이때, 여과포의 기공 오염 정도를 3단계로 나누어 세척효율을 평가하였다. 여과포 오염 비교 결과, 기공 오염은 여과물질이 지속적으로 투입, 압착되는 여과포 하부와 양측면 위주로 발생하였으며, 표면 오염은 전체면적에 걸쳐 고르게 나타났다. 가압 세척 결과, 공기투과도는 1.3-3.1%p 증가하였으며, 오염물질은 2.7-4.4% 제거되었다. 초음파 세척결과, 공기투과도는 12.5-61.5%p 증가하였으며 오염물질은 2.7-29.2% 제거되었다. 초음파 세척에서 주파수가 낮을수록 공기투과도 재생율과 오염물질 제거율이 우수하였다. 여과포의 기공 오염 정도가 클수록 초음파 세척 후 공기투과도 향상 및 오염물질 제거 효과가 우수하였다.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) is a major coronavirus that infects humans with human Coronavirus (HuCoV)-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-HKU1, HCoV-NL63, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle east respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). SARS-CoV2 is currently a global pandemic pathogen. In this study, we developed conventional RT-PCR based diagnostic system for the detection of SARS-CoV2 which is relatively inexpensive but has high stability and a wide range of users. Three conventional RT-PCR primer sets capable of forming specific band sizes by targeting the ORF1ab [232 nucleotide (nt)], E (200 nt) and N (288 nt) genes of SARS-CoV2 were developed, respectively, and it were confirmed to be about 10~100 times higher detection sensitivity than the previously reported methods. In addition, a standard positive control that can generate specific amplicons by reacting with the developed RT-PCR primers and verify the false-positiv from contamination of the laboratory was produced. Therefore, the diagnostic system that uses the RT-PCR method is expected to be used to detect SARS-CoV2.

These studies were conducted to investigate the microbe control effect of antibiotics treatment in all media used for in vitro fertilization(IVF) embryo production. The bovine oocytes were recovered from follicles(2~5mm) and were cultrued for 22hrs at 38.5$^{\circ}C$ with 5% CO2 incubator. The contamination and development rate in vitro fertilized oocyte was evaluated everyday. The results were summerized as follow ; 1. Control, antibiotic-antimycotic solution(AAS, Gibco) 1%＋gentamycin, and AAS 1%＋kanamycin(Sigma, USA) treatment was contaminated with 72hrs. However Baytril and Kanamycin(Korea) added was not contaminated. 2. The blastocyst formation rate in Baytril supplementated 1, 2 and 3${mu}ell$/ml was 3.73, 1.28 and 0.00%, respectively. 3. The blastocyst formation in kanamycin added concentration of 50, 75 and 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml was 13.0, 9.4 and 3.49%, respectively.

Thirty-eight sediment samples collected from the Youngsan River channel were analysed for Fe, Mn, Co, Cr, Cu, Nl, Zn and Pb to recognize the extent of contamination. Results showed that a wide range of contents was apparent far every metal over the study area. These differences have been mainly related to the textural variability of sediments. Exceptions to this were fecund in the contents of Cu, Zn, Pb and possibly Mn. The contents of Cu, Zn, Pb and Mn were particularly higher in the sediments loom the confluence of tributaries. Downstream profile of metal/Al ratios indicates that pollutant inputs from the Kwangju tributary are mainly responsible for enrichment of these metals in bed sediments of the Young-san River.

In CO₂ laser surface machining of plastic films in modern display manufacturing, scattering of fume particles could be a major source of well-recognized film surface contamination. This computational fluid dynamics research investigates the suction air flow patterns over a film surface as well as the dispersion of micron-sized fume particles with low-Reynolds number particle drag model. The numerical results show the recirculatory flow patterns near laser machining point on film surface and also over the surface of vertical suction slot, which may hinder the efficient removal of fume particles from film surface. The dispersion characteristics of fume particles with various particle size have been tested systematically under different levels of suction flow intensity. It is found that suction removal efficiency of fume particles heavily depends on the particle size in highly nonlinear manners and a higher degree of suction does not always results in more efficient particle removal.
