At present, in India, handling of solid waste has become a major challenge for the municipal authorities. Composting of solid waste, especially organic waste, can be one of the solutions to tackle the issue of handling solid waste. The present study is focused on agitated piles composting of flower waste (FW). Five combinations of FW with dry leaves (DL) and cow dung (CD) were prepared to conduct the study. Significant changes were observed due to the addition of bulking agent. The bulking material helps to reduce the production of leachate and also to maintain the aerobic condition within the piles. The reduction of total organic carbon was 21% in FW composting which increased by 36.48% during the composting of FW on addition of DL and CD. On the 120th day of composting, the pH of pile five (70 kg FW + 20 kg CD + 15 kg DL) was 7.33, electrical conductivity 2.77 mS/cm, total organic carbon 26.9%, total nitrogen 2.2%, and C:N ratio was 12. Appropriate proportion of waste mixture played an important role in providing favorable conditions for the microbial transformation of flower waste to stabilized compost. Finally, FW with the combination of CD and DL was found to be successful during pile composting.

The activated carbon is a very good choice for using as supercapacitor electrode materials. Herein, the flower of Shorea robusta, a bio-waste material was successfully used to synthesize the activated carbons for application as supercapacitor electrode materials. The activated carbon was synthesized through chemical activation process followed by thermal treatment at 700℃ in presence of N₂ atmosphere using KOH, ZnCl₂ and H₃PO₄ as the activating agents. The physicochemical analyses demonstrate that the obtained activated carbons are graphitic in nature and the degree of disorder of the graphitic carbons is changed with the activating agents. The activated carbon obtained from Shorea robusta flower (ACSF-K) electrode shows the specific capacitance of ~610 F g^-1 at 2 A g^-1 current density, which is higher than ACSF-Z (560 F g^-1) and ACSF-H (470 F g^-1) electrode material under the identical current density. The synthesized graphitic carbons also demonstrated good rate capability and high electrochemical stability as supercapacitor electrode.

본 실험은 폐타이어칩이 심비디움 Pine Clash 'Moon Venus'의 생장 및 양분함량에 미치는 영향에 대해서 조사하였다. 잎, 줄기의 지상부 생장은폐타이어칩과 바크를 혼용한 경우에는 관행구인 바크와 차이가 없었다. 그러나 폐타이칩 단용구에서는 지상부의 생장이 현저하게 감소하였다. 총근수, 신근수, 근장 등 지하부의 생장도 지상부의 생장과 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 부패근수는 폐타이어칩 중립과 대립의 단용구에서 증가하였다. 전당, 전분, 엽록소와 N, P, K 등 무기양분의 함량도 폐타이어칩과 바크를 혼용한 경우에는 관행구인 바크와 차이가 없었으나, 폐타이칩 단용구에서는 감소하였다.

This study delves into the realm of upcycling beauty design by repurposing discarded CDs, magazines, and fabrics. The study outlines a meticulous process for transforming waste into beauty designs. We created three upcycling beauty design works as part of this investigation. The first creation, called Silver Leaf, uses the silver section of CDs to craft leaves and stems. Achromatic colors are used as makeup to achieve cyber-inspired imagery. After carrying out silver-gray eye makeup, the lips were completed by affixing a CD component. The second creation is a firebird crafted by cutting or folding fashion magazines to create essential items. The colorful firebird image was completed using vivid color makeup of shades such as red and yellow. After proceeding with red eye makeup, the lips were completed by cutting and pasting magazine cutouts. The third piece is a spring flower, which involved selectively cutting lace patterns to complete a beauty design extending from head to face. The colors are spring-themed and encompass pink, yellow, and blue. Pink, blue, and green eyeshadows were applied on the lace, attached from head to face, chest, and lips. This study advocates for the prospect of upcycling beauty design using sustainable materials by repurposing waste resources. It also introduces the possibilities of creative activities in this field through upcycling. The study aims to play a role in changing the perception of environmental conservation, a concern of our times, through the use of sustainable resources.

제강 환원슬래그(steelmaking reduction slag)를 출발물질로 사용하여 다양한 농도의 $H_2SO_4$, $NH_4NO_3$(0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1 M) 용액, 반응온도 $100^{\circ}C$와 $150^{\circ}C$의 조건에서 Ca 용출 및 탄산화 실험을 실시하였다. 양이온 용출과 탄산화 반응시간은 각각 2시간 및 1시간이었으며 탄산화 효율 증대를 위해 pH는 약 12로 조절하였고 $CO_2$의 부분압은 10 bar이었다. TG 분석결과로부터 탄산화율을 계산한 결과, $H_2SO_4$ 0.5 M과 반응온도 $150^{\circ}C$의 실험 조건에서 약 86%의 고정화율이 관찰되었으나 이 이상의 농도에서는 탄산화율은 급격히 감소하였다. 그러나 $NH_4NO_3$용액을 사용한 결과, 산의 농도가 증가함에 따라 탄산화율도 비례적으로 증가하여 1 M 농도에서 약 93%의 탄산화율이 관찰되었다. 따라서 제강 환원슬래그를 사용한 탄산화반응은 $H_2SO_4$보다는 $NH_4NO_3$용액을 사용할 경우 유리한 것으로 분석되었다. SEM 분석결과, 합성된 아라고나이트는 나무토막 형태(wood piece shape), 둥근형태(round shape), 꽃모양(flower shape)으로 관찰되었으며, 방해석은 결정면이 잘 발달된 능면체형(rhombohedral shape)의 전형적인 형태로 확인되었다.

Self-administered questionaires and interviews were provided to 144 dwellers in Incheon Man-soo 7 complex from 2008 December 29th to 31st. The collected data was used to conduct comparative and descriptive statistical analysis: frequency, t-test, and $X^2$-test. The main findings are as follows : 1. House repairing and papering is most common used service by respondents. They also have much need for economic support. 2. Residents were satisfied with general environment of house. This survey showes that the highest satisfaction was about using food waste disposal sites. and the lowest satisfaction was about soundproof facilities on the other hand, among the questions. 3. Dwellers wanted to remodeling such as bathroom, restroom, a flower garden, space of landscape architecture. More than half dwellers preferred to leave among themselves living at permanent rental apartment as it is. 4. There is important difference in the demands of housing regeneration as the family trait. and variables of those were nuclear family or elderly/handicapped-family.

A green spectrophotometric method for the determination of cyanide has been proposed using, a green reagent, aqueous extract of blue butterfly pea. The test tube was filled with anthocyanin rich extract (pH 6) and cyanide solution. The reaction was kept constant for 10 minutes at room temperature. The reaction mixture changed color from blue to green as the amount of CN-ions increased. The 620 nm peak intensity increased with CN concentration. Therefore, this wavelength was used for all cyanide analyses. The cyanide calibration curve had a linear range of 0.25-1.00, 1.00-4.00, and 4.00-10.00 mg/L, with a satisfactory correlation coefficient of 0.99 and a LOD of 0.57 mg/L. The recovery ranged from 8.33 to 76.94 percent, indicating that this method is inaccurate at low cyanide concentrations. The intra-day and intermediate precision relative deviations were 0.391-0.871 % and 1.112-1.583 %. An H-bond forms between the C-4 group of the B-carbonyl ring and the HCN molecule according to the B3LYP/TZVP calculation. The method is convenient for cyanide concentrations above the LOQ of 1.09 mg/L, cost-effective, and capable of reducing toxic solvents with acceptable precision. The method could also be used to detect total cyanide in biological, environmental, and industrial waste samples.

본 연구는 국내 서식하는 아메리카동애등애(BSF)의 생태특성 구명 및 가축분뇨를 이용한 BSF의 실내 인공사육을 통하여 가축분뇨나 음식물쓰레기 처리 시 대량으로 요구되는 유충생산을 위하여 실내 인공증식기술 개발하고 BSF의 가축분뇨 분해 능력을 검정하였다. BSF는 축사를 중심으로 하는 즉 유기성 폐기물이 야적되어 있는 장소의 생태계 내에서 서식한다는 것을 확인하였으며, 축사, 퇴비사, 생활쓰레기장, 음식물쓰레기장 주변이 주 서식지임을 확인하였다. 가축분뇨 분해 우수 종은 BSF(Hermetia illucens), 동에등에(Ptecticus tenebrifer) 등 2종으로 확인되었다. 가축분뇨에 따른 BSF의 분해능은 BSF 유충 마리당 돈분 0.5 g, 우분 0.43 g, 계분 0.3 g순으로 돈분이 가장 우수하였다. 가축분뇨별 BSF 유충의 분해에 따른 무게는 우분 83.62, 돈분 77, 계분 80%로 우분이 분해 후 무게 감소가 가장 컸다. 가축분뇨 분해에 따른 BSF 유충 및 번데기 형질은 돈분이나 돈분 +왕겨를 혼합하여 처리했을 때 유충이나 번데기의 길이, 무게 폭이 다른 처리구에 비해 좋았다. BSF 실내 대량증식에 있어서 용화율 및 우화율에는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나 교미 산란에 있어서 중요한 요소인 광조건 변화에 의한 계절적 교미율의 차이를 보였다. 계절에 따른 BSF의 교미율을 보면 5월에서 7월까지 교미가 활발하게 이루어 졌으며, 시간대는 오전 10시부터 12시까지 가장 활발하게 교미를 하였다. 인공채란을 위한 산란배지는 음식물과 송아지 사료가 가장 우수하였고, 산란실($W{\times}D{\times}H=4{\times}2{\times}2m$) 내 적정 배지투입 수는 8개, 성충은 2000두 투입구가 가장 산란효율이 높았다. 산란유도재료로 플라워폼과 목재에 구멍을 뚫어 산란을 유도하였으며, 산란장소의 구멍크기는 3~5 mm, 깊이 7~10 mm의 크기를 가장 선호하였다. 유충은 2~4두/$cm^2$의 밀도로 사육하는 것이 과밀도(6~10두/$cm^2$) 보다 실용형질이 우수하였다. 번데기 적정보호조건은 매질(톱밥)을 사용하여 은신처를 제공해야하며, 톱밥의 습도는 20~40%가 가장 좋았다. 성충은 우화 즉시 사용해야하나, 용화 후 10에서 10일 처리한 경우 우화율 93.3%로 우화시기를 약 10일 정도 조절이 가능하였다.
