The digital colour reproduced on a display can be transferred to the image through various colour spaces, and the colour transferred to the image is one of the most important factors, among both subjective and objective factors, in image quality evaluation. Therefore, the digital colour must be continuously studied objectively and quantitatively along with the display development. At the same time, the subjective evaluation should be accompanied by systematic and quantitative research as the visual characteristics must be fully reflected. In this study, we applied different lightness levels of the background in order to examine the movement phenomenon of colour properties among the digital colour properties reproduced on the display. A psychophysical experiment was conducted for the condition where various colours were presented in the background, and the size of the colour stimulus was divided into the foveal vision and peripheral vision. Based on the evaluation results of the experiment, the colour properties movement phenomenon is identified according to the lightness of the background and the size of the colour stimulus for five colours among KS basic colours selected by experimental stimulus. Furthermore, a research direction to reproduce colour on displays in the future is proposed.

In recent years, the digital media environment has begun to diversify, with a greater focus being placed on user-centric design. With the development of digital technology, the digital media environment has formed a vast network of information, which supports interactive communication between people, creating a need for user-centric research. Mobile displays, as a representation of the digital media environment, have the advantage of mobility through the use of thin screen displays and low-performance image sensors, which allow for miniaturization and power saving. However, this results in reduced colour accuracy compared to large displays. This study investigates users' colour perception when using dark and light mode mobile displays. Colour perception was measured using a psycho-physical experiment, which controls each colour attribute based on the 12 colours of KS. The results were analysed to determine whether there is a difference in colour perception between dark mode and light mode, and if the difference was statistically significant. Future research directions based on the results are then discussed.

Cutting oils are emulsionable fluids widely used in metal working processes. Their composition is mineral oil, water, and additives (fatty acids, surfactants, biocides, etc.) generating a toxic waste after a long use. Cutting oils also affect colour, taste and odour of water, making it undesirable for domestic and industrial uses. In these days, conventional treatment methods as evaporation, membrane separation or chemical separation have major disadvantages since they generate a concentrated stream that is more harmful than the original waste. In this study, our purpose is to reduce cutting oils by using biological treatment. Eighty one strains were isolated from cutting waste oil of industrial waste water sludge under aerobic conditions. Among these strains, KS47, which removed 90.4% cutting oil in 48 hr, was obtained by screening test under aerobic conditions(pH 7, $28^{\circ}C$). KS47 was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa according to morphological, physiological and biochemical properties, 16S rDNA sequence, and fatty acid analysis. P. aeruginosa KS47 could utilize cutting oil as carbon source. In batch test, we obtained optimal degradation conditions(1.5 g/L cell concentration, pH 7, and temperature $30^{\circ}C$). Under the optimal conditions, 1,060 mg/L cutting oil was removed 83.7% (74.1 mg/L/hr).
