종이 표변에 전분 사이징을 하는 목적은 종이가 액체에 대하여 침투저항성을 부여하 여 종이의 인쇄적성을 향상시키며 아울랴 종이의 표면적성과 종이강도 등의 물리적 특 성을 향상시키기 위해서 사용된다. 표면 사이징은 기본적으로 종이 표면에 전분을 이용 한 필름을 형성하여 종이 표면의 공극크기를 줄여 인쇄잉크 등과 같은 액체의 침투속 도를 늦여준다. 현재 국내에서 널리 사용되는 표면 사이징용 전분으로는 산화전분과 자 가변성용 일반전분이 있다. 자가변성용 전분은 효소나 APS로 전분의 chain 길이를 적 당한 점도로 잘라주는 것으로 전분 호액의 노화가 쉽게 일어나는 경향이 있다. 산화전 분은 전분회사에서 산화제를 이용하여 전분의 점도를 사용자의 요구에 따라 조절한 것 으로 water holdout이 개선되고 자가변성용 전분보다는 노화 안정성이 개선되지만 종 이 내부로의 칩투가 많이 일어나 전분 필름 강도가 약해지며 표면 강도 향상 효과가 적고 종이의 광학적 특성을 저하시키는 단점을 지니고 있다. 또한 약 10 ~ 20% 정도 사 용되는 파지의 재활용시 펄프 섬유에 흡착되지 않는 전분으로 인해 백수 내의 COD 및 B BOD를 증가시키는 원인이 된다.따라서 본 연구에서는 펄프 섬유와 친화력이 높아 지료 내첨용 지력증강제로 널리 사용되고 있는 양성 전분의 양이온 치환도 및 점도를 사이즈 프레스에 적합하게 조절 하여 백상지 제조업체의 라언에 적용하였다. 결과분석 항목으로는 파지 재활용에 따른 백수내 COD, 칼숨 이온함량 등의 백수 시스템의 변화와 종이의 물리적, 광학적 특성 및 ink jet 용지의 인쇄적성 등을 측정하여 산화전분과 비교하였다. 그 결과 약 20%의 C COD 감소 효과와 10%정도의 OPR 향상 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 종이 물성의 경우 인 장강도와 뺏뺏이(stiffness) 및 지분 등을 측정한 결과 산화전분 보다 향상되었다. 특히 지분의 경우, 참여한 회사의 지분관련 complain이 약 80% 정도 감소하는 결과를 나타 내었다. 또한 백상지의 경우 ink jet 프린터에 많이 사용됨으로 ink jet 프린터의 인쇄 적성을 image analyzer로 측정한 결과 산화전분 보다 향상된 결과를 나타내었다.

The use of genetically cloned xylanase acquired from Bacillus strearthermophillus improves bleachability for oak kraft pulps. Combination of xylanase(X). oxygen(O), ozone(Z). peroxide(P), alkaline extraction(Eo. Eop), and chlorination(C/D, D) have been tested in a variety of bleaching sequences. The effectiveness of xylanase pre-treatment(XO) and post-treatment(OX) in oxygen bleaching is mainly compared. With xylanase treatment the brightness increase by 1.5-2.1% ISO in OZEP, OZEoP, OZEopP and OPZP sequences. There is only numerically difference of brightness gains between OX and XO sequences. With xylanase treatment chemical requirements for bleaching decrease by 42.6-48.6% in OC/DEoD sequence and 47.9-54.7% as active chlorine in OC/DEopD sequence at the same brightness. the reduction of bleaching chemicals is higher in XO sequence than those in OX sequence. Following xylanase treatment the viscosity increases from 11.7-12.0 mPa·s to 12.4-13.5 mPa·s and the brightness stability is considerably improved however the difference of effectiveness between XO and OX sequence is not present. Compared to tensile index vs tear index, the physical properties are similar for TCF bleaching sequences with and without xylanase treatments. However in OC/DEoD and OC/DEopD sequences the physical properties decrease with xylanase treatment. There is no difference in the physical properties between XO and OX sequences. COD, BOD and color of bleaching effluents increase slightly with xylanase treatment, however the discharge of COD end-load into environmental impact decrease.

This study was carried out in order to observe how the bay sediment would be changed with microbial treatments and a chemical oxidant like $CaO_2$. The sediment during the treatments was analyzed in terms of pH, ORP, volatile organics content, COD, AVS, T-N, and T-P. With $CaO_2$ treatment, pH was kept over 9.66 and ORP ranged from +4.70~+46.0, which meant an aerobic state meanwhile with the microbial treatment those were worse. In addition the chemical treatment showed better environmental index values than the microbial one: volatile organics content and COD values in the former were 12.9% and 37.9% while those in the latter were 4.5% and 18.7%, respectively. AVS and T-P were 71.1% and 100% versus 56.5% and 85.8%, respectively. However, the microbial treatment was better for T-N(66% higher). On the other hand, both treatment at a time enhanced all the environmental indices but COD meantime pH and ORP values were lower than with the chemical treatment only. Thus additional input of an oxygen generator like $CaO_2$ could improve the environmental state of a bay sediment where the biological treatment is going on.

탈묵 펄프는 자원재활용을 통한 환경 보존과 원가절감이 가능한 유용한 제지원료로 주로 신문용지와 화장지의 제조에 사용되고 있다. 국내에서는 신문고지의 상당 부분을 수입 에 의존하고 있으나 외국에서도 자국의 자원 및 환경보호를 위해서 재활용율을 증대시키기 위한 노력을 경주하고 있기 때문에 수입고지의 품질이 저하되고 있으며, 이는 다시 국내 신 문용지의 품질 악화로 이어지고 있다. 또한 환경문제가 세계적인 관심사로 부각됨에 따라 환경친화적인 탈묵 방법으로의 전환이 요구되고 있는 상황이다. 국내로 수입되는 신문고지 에는 오프셋 인쇄물 뿐만 아니라 플렉소 인쇄물이 포함되어 있다. 일반적으로 신문인쇄에 널리 쓰이는 오프셋 잉크는 기존의 알칼리 해리와 부유부상법에 의해 제거가 비교적 용이한 특정이 있으나, 플렉소 잉크는 친수성 안료로 구성되어 있어 알칼리 조건에서 탈묵할 경우 에 잉크 업자의 크기가 매우 작아져서 부상 탈묵에 의한 백색도 증가 효과가 크게 저하되는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 플렉소 인쇄물의 탈묵 개선을 위해 세척법이 효과적인 것으로 알려 져 있으나 국내에서는 설비 및 공정 상황으로 비추어 볼 때 불가능하다고 판단된다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 플렉소 고지가 함유된 신문고지의 탈묵 효율을 향상시키고 환경친화적 탈묵 기술을 접목시키기 위한 일환으로 중성 탈묵기술의 적용 가능성 및 이에 효과적인 탈묵제를 탐색하고자 하였다.이를 위해 본 실험에서는 일반적인 비이온성 계면활성제를 이용하여 알칼리 조건과 중성조건에서 탈묵을 실시하여 탈묵 효율을 비교하였다. 또, 플렉소 고지를 이용할 때 심각 한 문제점의 하나인 백수의 오염 정도를 탁도 COD 등으로 평가하였다. 그 결과 중성조건 과 알칼리 조건에서 수율은 큰 차이가 없었으며, 백색도는 중성 조건에서 탈묵한 경우에 약 1 1% 높았다. 백수의 탁도와 COD는 중성 탈묵을 실시할 경우가 알칼리 탈묵시보다 약 50% 감소하여 플렉소 고지의 탈묵에 비교적 효과적인 것으로 나타났으나, 플렉소 고지의 문제를 완전히 해결할 수는 없었다. 그래서 플렉소 고지의 중성 탈묵에 적합한 새로운 탈묵기술을 탐색하기 위하여 알킬 아민을 첨가하여 탈묵성을 조사하였다. 알킬 아민을 적용한 결과, 탈 묵 펄프의 백색도는 알칼리 탈묵에 비해 약 6% 증가하였으며, 백수의 탁도와 COD는 알칼 리 탈묵할 때 플렉소 고지를 첨가하기 전보다 낮아졌다. 탈묵 수율은 알킬 아민을 적용한 경우 최고 10% 정도 낮아지는 문제가 발생하였다. 그러나 부상탈묵에 의한 회분 제거율은 알칼리 탈묵에 비해 2배 이상 증가하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었으며 탈묵 펄프의 여수도가 7 70% 이상 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.

Chlorinated phenols are widely used by the chemical industry as intermediate products in synthesis and previously were frequently applied to various industry fields. Peroxidases catalyze the peroxide-dependent oxidation of a range of inorganic and organic compounds. Peroxidase was shown to mineralize a variety of recalcitrant aromatic compounds and to oxidize a number of polycyclic aromatic and phenolic compounds. Among monomeric phenolic and nonphenolic compounds, peroxidase is known to oxidize its compounds. In this study, a colorimetric assay was developed to quantitatively evaluate the peroxidase activity for rapid screening. Color products of different intensity were developed proportionally to the peroxidase activity on agar plate and 96-well plate. This method correlates well with the RP-HPLC result. Using this screening method, 12 colonies of strain was screened which survived at high concentration of 2,4-DCP (1000 ppm) and with peroxidase activity for the $7^{th}$ round screening step on agar plate. These strains were utilized 2,4-DCP as a sole carbon source and produced peroxidase. After the screening test, four of the bacteria have significant better effect of COD removal on dye waste-water. COD removal of these was from 44% to 61%, respectively.

An active stimulating method for juvenile fishes to drive escaping from mesh of the codend was examined by shaking canvas in the bottom trawl followed by shrimp beam trawl. Field fishing trials by a bottom trawl were carried out between the Geomoondo and Jejudo in west of South sea, Korea by conver-net methods to examine the effect on the reduction of juvenile fish as a discard catch by generating a shaking movement of the codend using two pieces of asymmetrical semi-circular canvas. The mean period of the shaking motion with the round canvas was 10-15 s, and the range of amplitude as a vertical depth change was up to 0.4-0.6 m when towing speed 3.4-4.3 k't as estimated by peak event analysis. The escape rate of juvenile fish in conver-net by total juvenile bycatch (codend and cover-net) in 14 trials increased from 20% in a steady codend to 34% using a shaking codend in the bottom trawl, while the marketing catch or total bycatch was similar between steady and shaking cod ends. There was no difference in the body size of the fish and species composition between the steady and shaking cod ends. Above results demonstrate a new method for bycatch reduction actually up to 18% using an active stimulating device, although further experiments are needed to increase an effective shaking motion of the codend in amplitude and period for more bycatch reduction.

Petroleum refining unavoidably generates large volumes of oily wastewater. The environmentally acceptable disposal of oily wastewater is a current challenge to the petroleum industry. Nowadays, more attentions have been focused on the treatment techniques of oily wastewater. Oily wastewater contained highly concentrated and toxic organic compounds. Wet peroxide oxidation (WPO) and catalytic wet oxidation (CWO) were applied to eliminate pollutants to examine the feasibility of the WPO/CWO of oily wastewater. The results indicated that more than 80% chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal from oily wastewater was achieved with CWO. Homogenous catalyst, $NaHCO_3$ and $Na_2CO_3$ and NaOH showed effective removal for pollutants in oily wastewater. Greater than 90% COD removal was achieved with WPO. It was concluded that WPO was a far more effective process for oily wastewater.

The objective of this work was to analyze organic matter removal, nitrification, biomass growth and membrane fouling in a submerged flat-sheet membrane bioreactor, fed with synthetic wastewater, of similar composition to the effluents generated in a fish meal industry. After biomass acclimatization with saline conditions of 12 gNaCl/L and COD/N ratio of 15 in the bioreactor, results showed that the organic matter removal was higher than 90%, for all organic loading rates (0.8, 1, 1.33 and $2gCOD/L{\cdot}d$) and nitrogen loading rates (0.053, 0.067, 0.089 and $0.133gN/L{\cdot}d$) tested during the study. However, nitrification was only carried out with the lowest OLR ($0.8gCOD/L{\cdot}d$) and NLR ($0.053gN/L{\cdot}d$). An excessive concentration of organic matter in the wastewater appears as a limiting factor to this process' operating conditions, where nitrification values of 65% were reached, including nitrogen assimilation to produce biomass. The analysis of membrane fouling showed that the bio-cake formation at the membrane surface is the most impacting mechanism responsible of this phenomenon and it was demonstrated that organic and nitrogen loading rates variations affected membrane fouling rate.

In this study, we analyzed the release differences for some critical pollution compounds according to the surrounding conditions in order to predict water quality due to the sedimental releases and the release characteristics at different sedimental locations in Lake Leewon, in Tae-An area. COD, nitrogens and phosphates were analyzed using the standard methods for water quality, based on high chloride ion concentration(greater than 2,000 ppm). For COD, the release rate increased in the anoxic basin but almost the same in the oxic basin. For $NH_3$-N, the release rate decreased in the oxic basin as you go A through C point meanwhile, for $NO_3$-N and T-N, the tendency was reversed because of nitrification of them. In the anoxic basin, the release rates of $NH_3$-N and $NO_3$-N went up with A through C path. However, the release rate of T-N was found to decrease. Also, for $PO_4$-P and T-P, the release rates in the oxic basin were lowest at B point mainly because the phosphates were at less released in the highly $O_2$ concentrated environment. In the anoxic reactor, $PO_4$-P was released similarly regardless of the sampling points. In summary, the release rates in the oxic reactor were greater than those in the anoxic reactor for COD and $NO_3$-N. For the other components, the anoxic basin generated the higher release rates.

Paper mulberry fibers have been used as fibrous raw materials for manufacturing traditional handmade paper, hanji for a long time. Compared to wood pulp fibers, pulp fibers from mulberry bast tissue have some benefits in physical and chemical properties due to their high D.P (degree of polymerization), M.W (molecule weight) and long fiber length. Specially, Korean handmade hanji shows outstanding characteristics in mechanical tensile strength, folding endurance, flexibility and long sustainable conservation properties. Therefore, hanji is widely applied to daily supplies, hygienic goods, medical supplies, clothing industries and so on. Recently, the potential demand of mulberry pulp fibers is more and more increased on the strength of high application fields. This study was focused on the possibility of wastewater recycling in unit operation systems for the development of automated mass production line. The properties and environmental loads of wastewater from debarking, cooking, bleaching and screening process were analyzed by means of COD, conductivity, turbidity and solid materials. The wastewater from debarking and cooking process was comparatively high in pollution load, and would be treated by additional approaches of chemico-physical method.
