It is important to design photobioreactor by cheap material for economical microalgal biomass production. In this study, two types of marine photobioreactors (MPBR), made by either polyvinyl chloride (MPBR-PVC) or high density poly ethylene (MPBR-HDPE), are used and performance of these were compared. Tetraselmis sp. KCTC 12236BP is a green marine alga that isolated from Ganghwa Island, Korea, and the strain was used for marine cultivations using MPBR-PVC and MPBR-HDPE. The cultivations were performed three times in the spring season of 2012 using MPBR-PVC and of 2013 using MPBR-HDPE in the coastal area of Young Heung Island. As the results, MPBR-PVC shows higher biomass productivities than MPBR-HDPE, due to its high light transmittance. In the cultivations using MPBR-PVC, the average sea water temperature was $11.5^{\circ}C$ during the first experiment and $16.5^{\circ}C$ during the second and third experiments. Average light intensities during three times for experiments were 407.5, 268.1 and $273.0{\mu}{\cdot}E{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, respectively. The maximum fresh cell weight and average biomass productivity were $1.2g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and $0.12g{\cdot}L^{-1}{\cdot}day^{-1}$. These results showed that Tetraselmis sp. KCTC12236BP were adapted well with the environmental conditions from ocean, and grow in the MPBR-PVC and MPBR-HDPE.

3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole(ATA)을 비상용성 블렌드인 maleated HDPE(mHDPE)/maleated EPDM (mEPDM)(50 wt%/50 wt%)에 용융혼합에 의해 2.5 phr, 5.0 phr 첨가하였으며, ATA 첨가에 따른 블렌드의 미세구조, 기계적물성 및 유변물성을 FT-IR, FE-SEM, 인장시험, DMA 및 ARES를 이용하여 각각 조사하였다. FTIR 및 DMA 분석결과 용융혼합 과정에서 ATA가 mHDPE 및 mEPDM의 말레무수물과 반응하여 초분자적 수소결합이 형성되며, 이로부터 물리적 가교구조가 형성되는 것을 알 수 있었다. FE-SEM 분석결과 mHDPE/mEPDM 블렌드는 플라스틱인 HDPE가 연속상을 이루고 고무상인 EPDM이 분산상을 이루며 ATA를 첨가함으로써 모폴로지가 더욱 미세해짐을 알 수 있었다. 인장물성시험결과 ATA에 첨가에 의해 형성된 물리적가교구조로 인해 인장강도, 모듈러스, 파단신율 값 및 탄성복원력이 증가되었으며, 용융레올로지 특성 분석결과 ATA가 첨가됨으로써 블렌드의 저장탄성율과 용융점도가 증가됨을 알 수 있었다.

Value-added utilization of the disposed ash trees due to the infestation by Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) was explored by converting them into particleboards (PBs) and wood-plastic composites (WPCs). The experimental result showed that PB panels could be successfully manufactured from the ash wood but compaction ratio need to be higher than 1.3 in order to meet the standard requirements listed by American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Ash wood plastic composites with high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP) were also prepared with additives by extrusion. Physical and mechanical properties of ash wood plastic composite compared favorably to those made of pine and maple.

New technologies in polymer synthesis and pipe extrusion equipment have led to the commercialization of high-performance, large-diameter, thick-wall high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes. They have been used in the field of seawater transport and cooling to replace metal pipes, due to their advantages of high corrosion resistance and extensibility. Connection of HDPE pipe is important as it determines the safety of the entire piping system. Butt fusion welding is commonly used for HDPE pipe connection but may cause the formation of weak points in the welded joints, interfering the reliability of the pipeline system in the application of nuclear power plants. At present, there is a lack of research on evaluating the performance of welded joint for large-diameter thick-wall HDPE pipes made by butt fusion-welding. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of three different butt fusion-welding processes, i.e., single low pressure (SLP), single high pressure (SHP) and dual low pressure (DLP), by evaluating the performance of their welded joints, including characterizing tensile strength, extensibility, crystallinity and hardness. In specific, a thick-wall HDPE pipe with OD of 812.8 mm and wall thickness of 74 mm which is certified for nuclear safety class was used for study. Representative specimen from the outer, middle and inner part across the wall of the main pipe body and welded joints were taken for testing. Different test methods and specimens were designed to assess the feasibility of evaluating the welding performance from different welding process. The results showed that the mechanical properties of different locations of the welded joints were different, and the tensile strength and fracture energy of the middle part of the joint were lower than that of the inner and outer parts, which could be caused by the difference in the crystallinity and thickness of the melting zone influenced by welding processes, as can be seen from the analysis of DSC test and morphology observation. Hardness testing was conducted on the section of the welded joints, and it revealed that the micromechanical properties of the welded joints in the region of the heat-affected zone were enhanced significantly, which may be due to the annealing effect caused by welding process. In summary, The DLP process resulted in the best extensibility of the welded joints among three processes, suggesting that the joining pressure from welding process plays an important role in affecting the extensibility of the welded joints.

Background and objective: Illegal open-air incineration, which is criticized as a leading source of air pollutants among agricultural activities, currently requires constant effort and attention. Countries around the world have been undertaking studies on the emission of heavy metal substances in fine dust discharged during the incineration process. A precise analytical method is required to examine the harmful effects of particulate pollutants on the human body. Methods: In order to simulate open-air incineration, the infrastructure needed for incineration tests complying with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method 5G was built, and a large-area analysis was conducted on particulate pollutants through automated scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). For the test specimen, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) waste collected by the DangJin Office located in Choongcheongnam-do was used. To increase the identifiability of the analyzed particles, the incineration experiment was conducted in an incinerator three times after dividing the film waste into 200 g specimens. Results: Among the metal particulate matters detected in the HDPE waste incineration test, transition metals included C (20.8-37.1 wt%) and O (33.7-37.9 wt%). As for other chemical matters, the analysis showed that metal particulate matters such as metalloids, alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and transition metals reacted to C and C-O. Si, a representative metalloid, was detected at 14.8-20.8 wt%, showing the highest weight ratio except for C and O. Conclusion: In this study, the detection of metal chemicals in incinerated particulate matters was effectively confirmed through SEM-EDS. The results of this study verified that HDPE waste adsorbs metal chemicals originating from soil due to its own properties and deterioration, and that when incinerated, it emits particulate matters containing transition metals and other metals that contribute to the excessive production and reduction of reactive oxygen species.

고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE)과 초고분자량 폴리에틸렌(UHMWPE)을 블렌딩한 고분자 구조를 갖는 리튬이온 2차 전지용 습식 separator를 제조하였으며, 그들의 고분자 블렌딩 및 연신 조건이 제반물성에 미치는 영향에 관해서 고찰하였다. Separator의 기계적 강도는 UHMWPE의 분자량 및 함량이 증가함에 따라 크게 향상되었으며, UHMWPE의 함량이 6 wt%이며 5배 연신 필름에서 약 $1000 kg/\textrm{cm}^2$의 기계적 강도를 보이며 제막성 또한 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Separator의 기공구조는 0.1~0.12 $\mu\textrm{m}$로 균일성을 보였으며, shut-down특성은 130 $^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 급격히 상승하여 $160^{\circ}C$에서 용융되는 것으로 나타났고 따라서 리튬이온 2차전지에 적용 가능한 것으로 평가되었다.
