국내에서 폐플라스틱 발생량은 증가하고 있지만 이에 대한 처리방법 및 재활용은 부족한 실정이다. 하지만 최근에 플라스틱과 같은 고분자물질의 처리 방법으로 열분해기술에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 혼합폐플라스틱의 처리 및 생성되는 재생유의 이용가능성을 평가하기위해 폐플라스틱의 각 재질별 TGA와 DCS분석을 통한 열분해특성 파악과 재생유의 품질검사 및 성상분석을 통한 이용가능성을 평가하였다. 온도변화에 대한 재질별 플라스틱의 열분해는 PP, LDPE, HDPE, PET, PS,기타 순으로 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 각 재질별 플라스틱의 열분해 특성을 기초로 하여 혼합폐플라스틱의 열분해처리 조건을 설정하였고, Batch식 열분해 플랜트를 가동하며 혼합폐플라스틱을 처리하였다. 열분해 처리시 발생되는 가연성가스를 포집, 냉각 및 정제과정을 거쳐 오일을 생산하고, 시중에서 판매되고 있는 연료유와 재생유를 한국산업규격의 석유품질검사법에 준하여 분석하였다. 재생유의 품질은 낮은 인화점을 제외하고는 모두 품질기준에 적합한 것으로 분석되었고, 연료유와의 성상을 비교한 결과 등유와 경유 중간의 성상을 나타내었다. 따라서 혼합폐플라스틱을 열분해 처리해 생성된 오일은 연료유로 이용이 가능하므로 신재생에너지로 활용이 충분할 것으로 확인되었다.

수소를 연료로 하여 HVOF 용사된 크롬카바이드 용사층의 산화거동을 이해하기 위해 용사분말의 제조방법이 서로 다른 두 종류의 용사용 분말을 ($\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$-20wt%NiCr로 구성된 크래드 분말과 $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$-7wt%NiCr로 구성된 혼합분말)이용하여 F/O비를 3.2, 3.0, 2.8 로 변화시켜 용사한 후, $1000^{\circ}C$ 까지 등온 산화실험 후, 산화특성을 고찰하여 크롬카바이드 용사층의 F/O비에 의존하는 산화거동을 비교 검토하였다. 그 결과 NiCr이 20wt% 크래드된 분말로 용사된 용사층과 NiCr이 7wt% 혼합된 분말로 용사된 용사층은 전혀 다른 산화거동을 보였다. 혼합분말의 경우에 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 50시간 등온산화실험 후, F/O=3.2의 조건인 경우에는 산화물이 표면 요철을 따라 비교적 균일하게 성장한 반면 F/O=3.0과 F/O=2.8의 경우에는 용사층 표면이 다공성의 산화물이 형성되었으며, 또한 Ni, Cr으로 이루어진 복합산화물인 oxide cluster로 성장하였다. 반면에 크래드 분말로 용사된 용사층의표면 산화물 층은 다공성을 변화되지 않았다. 이러한 용사분말의 제조방법에 따라 산화거동이 차이를 보이는 것은 용사 중에 발생하는 카바이드분해와 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 생각되며 또한 일반적으로 알려진 크롬카바이드 소결체 보다 산화율이 높았다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때, 환원성의 수소의 양에 따른 용사층의산화거동에 대해서도 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The Present study attempted to analyze the fate of CO diffused into the circulating blood through the alveoli. Dogs were induced to CO poisoning by rebreathing CO gas mixture contained in Krog's spirometer, by closed circuit method, for 60 minutes. The spirometer was filled initially with 282 ml of CO and 20 liters of air and oxygen, so the composition of gases were arranged as 1.4% in CO and 50% in $O_2$ at the begining of the rebreathing. Oxygen was added corresponding to the utilization of $O_2$ by the animal in proceeding of the experiment. At 60th minutes of CO rebreathing, the concentration of CO in arterial blood and in mixed venous blood were analysed and compared with each other after the CO contents were corrected with the hematocrit measured in the arterial and mixed venous blood. The distribution of CO gas to other tissues was estimated by the analysis of CO diffused into the cystic bile and into the peritoneal gas pocket which was formed by injection of 300 ml air into the peritoneal cavity prior to the CO gas rebreathing. The blood volume was measured by dilution method using $^{51}Chromium$ tagged red cells. CO amount vanished in the animal body was calculated by subtraction of total CO content in blood stream and the CO remained in closed circuit breathing system from the CO amount given to the breathing system at the begining of the experiment. Results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. The content of CO corrected by the hematocrit value was slightly less in mixed venous blood than in arterial blood. The amount of CO diffused into the cystic bile and into the peritoneal cavity was averaged to 0.1% and 0.4% of the CO amount in 100 ml of blood, respectively. 2. For 60 minutes of CO rebreathing, CO-hemoglobin saturation reached about 77% at the 60th minutes, CO amount vanished in the experimental animal averaged 36.1 ml/dog/hr., or 21% of the total CO volume in the blood stream. The average vanishing rate of CO during 60 minutes of CO rebreathing per kg of body weight was 2.71 ml/hr. Production of CO measured in ten dogs under hypoxic condition averaged 0.023 ml/kg/hr. The major part of the CO vanished in the dogs seemed to be oxidized to $CO_2$ by various tissues of the animal. The conclusion might be delivered as such oxidation of CO to $CO_2$ by animal tissues can play a role in part of the process of recovery and protection of animal from CO-poisoning.

지난 수십 년 동안, 고분자막은 기체 분리 분야에서 큰 역할을 해왔다. 온실가스의 주범인 이산화탄소를 분리하기 위해서는 더 높은 투과선택도와 장수명 및 대면적 등을 요구한다. 하지만 기존 고분자 분리막들은 투과도와 선택도의 역상관 관계 특징을 지니고 있으며, 무기물질은 투과성능이 우수하지만 가격이 비싸다는 단점이 있다. 최근 많은 연구가 진행되어온 혼합 매질 분리막은 고분자와 무기물질의 이점들을 혼합하여 기체 분리막의 차세대로서 큰 이목을 이끌고 있다. 혼합 매질 분리막은 대칭적인 구조 또는 비대칭적인 구조를 가지고 있으며, 투과량을 증가시키기 위해서는 비대칭적인 구조가 바람직하다. 혼합 매질 분리막에서 가장 중요한 변수로는 무기입자의 균일한 분산과 무기물과 고분자 사이의 좋은 계면을 형성하는 것이다. 최근에 새로운 분류의 다공성 결정성 물질인 금속 유기 구조체(MOF)는 이산화탄소 분리용 소재로써 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. MOF의 한 종류 중, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF)는 가장 흔하게 사용되는 무기입자이며 이는 입자의 크기를 작게 만들 수 있으며, $CO_2$를 분리하기에 적절한 기공의 크기를 가지고 있기 때문이다. 이 밖에 혼합 매질 분리막에 사용되는 특정 물질들을 적용하기 위해서는 선택도와 크기, 호환성, 안정성 등을 동시에 최적화시켜야 한다. 이와 같이 본 총설에서는, 혼합 매질 분리막에 관련된 주요 연구내용과 이러한 연구를 수행하는 대표적인 전략들을 소개하였다.

고체산화물연료전지(SOFC)는 청정에너지기술로써 화학에너지를 전기에너지로 직접 전환한다. SOFC는 열병합발전과 결합하여 80%이상의 효율을 올릴 수 있으며 천연가스와 바이오가스 등 연료에 대한 융통성이 폴리머전해질막연료전지(PEMFC)보다 높다. YSZ전해질과 함께 SOFC에 주로 채용되는 공기극 재료는 아직까지 Sr이 첨가된 $LaMnO_3$(LSM)이다. LSM 이외에, 혼합전도성을 가지는 페로브스카이트로서 Sr첨가 $LaCoO_3$(LSCo), $LaFeO_3$(LSF), $LaFe_{0.8}Co_{0.2}O_3$(LSCF)는 공기극 임피던스가 LSM에 비해 현저히 낮아 연구가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 SOFC전극의 소결온도에서 YSZ과 고체반응을 일으키는 문제점과 열팽창 계수가 YSZ와 격차가 크게 나는 문제점 때문에 전극 제조가 복잡하다. 따라서 전해질과의 화학적 안정성 및 유사한 열팽창계수(TEC)를 가지면서 우수한 전기화학활성을 제공하는 것이 해결해야할 중요한 문제로 남는다.

The effect of SNC(silver nano colloid) on the emission reduction of odors such as ammonia ($NH_3$), hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$), and methane ($CH_4$) from swine excreta was studied. Silver has been used as an universal antibiotic substance and can reduce the emission of some gases by sterilizing action. Therefore, an apparatus which produces SNC was developed and was conducted its performance test. Also, the SNC made by the apparatus was applied to swine excreta sampled from a piggery in oder to find the effect on the reduction of odor emission. An electrolysis apparatus was developed to produce SNC and its capacity was 0.024 ppm/$hr{\cdot}L$. The effects of SNC on the reduction of odor emission from swine excreta were tested for bad smell gases of ammonia ($NH_3$), hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) and methane ($CH_4$). For ammonia gas, factorial experiments were conducted to find the effects of concentration and application rate of SNC. The test results for the different concentrations of 20 ppm, 50 ppm, and 100 ppm showed that the more concentration of SNC was increased, the more emission reduction of ammonia gas increased. From the test results about the effect of application rate, the more SNC was applied, the more emission reduction of $NH_3$ increased. In order to reduce the concentration of $NH_3$ below 5 ppm, SNC of 50 ppm is recommended to be applied at an interval of 6 hours, and is mixed with swine excreta in the volumetric ratio of 4:1. For hydrogen sulfide gas, the concentration was decreased as time went by and was reduced rapidly in the first stage of the tests for all applied concentrations of SNC (20 ppm, 50 ppm, and 100 ppm). Especially, when 100 ml of SNC with 100 ppm was applied, emission of hydrogen sulfide gas was reduced rapidly during early 4 hours after the application of SNC. And, concentration of hydrogen sulfide gas was maintained below 20 ppm after 12 hours. For methane gas, t-test showed that there was no significance on the effect of its application for all applied concentrations of SNC. Therefore, it was concluded that the application of SNC on swine excreta had no effect on the emission reduction of $CH_4$.

Geochemical and ecological properties of remediated soil and gas exhausted from a low-temperature thermal desorption (LTTD) process were analyzed to assess the environmental impact of LTTD treatment. Soil characteristics were examined with regard to the chemical (EC, CEC, and organic matter) and the ecological (dehydrogenase activity, germination rate of Brassica juncea, and growth of Eisenia andrei) properties. The exhaust gases were analyzed based on the Air Quality Act in Korea as well as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and mixed odor. Level of organic Organic matter of the soil treated by LTTD process was slightly decreased compared to that of the original soil because the heating temperature ($200^{\circ}C$) and retention time (less than 15 minutes) were neither high nor long enough for the oxidation of organic matter. The LTTD process results in reducing TPH of the contaminated soil from $5,133{\pm}508$ mg/kg to $272{\pm}107$ mg/kg while preserving soil properties. Analysis results of the exhaust gases from the LTTD process satisfied discharge standard of Air Quality Law in Korea. Concentration of VOCs including acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde and valeraldehyde in circulation gas volatilized from contaminated soil were effectively reduced in the regenerative thermal oxidizer and all satisfied the legal standards. Showing ecologically improved properties of contaminated soil after LTTD process and environmentally tolerable impact of the exhaust gas, LTTD treatment of TPH-contaminated soil is an environmentally acceptable technology.

$Eu^{2+}$ and $Dy^{3+}$ co-doped strontium aluminate, $SrAl_2O_4$ long phosphorescent phoshor was fabricated and its photoluminescence was characterized. The phosphor, $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ was synthesized by a coprecipitation in which metal salts of $Sr(NO_3)_2$, $Al(NO_3)_3{\cdot}9H_2O$, were dissolved in $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ solution with adding $Eu(NO_3)_3{\cdot}5H_2O$ and $Dy(NO_3)_3{\cdot}5H_2O$ as a activator and co-activator, respectively. The coprecipitated products were separated from solution, washed, and dried in a vacuum dry oven. The dried powders were then mixed with 3 wt% $B_2O_3$ as a flux and heated at $800{\sim}1400^{\circ}C$ for 3 h under the reducing ambient atmosphere of 95%Ar+$5%H_2$ gases. For the synthesized $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$, properties of photoluminescence such as emission, excitation and decay time were examined. The emission intensity increased as the annealing temperature increased and showed a maximum peak intensity at 510 nm with a broad band from $400{\sim}650\;nm$. Monitored at 520 nm, the excitation spectrum showed a maximum peak intensity at $315{\sim}320\;nm$ wavelength with a broad band from $200{\sim}500\;nm$ wavelength. The decay time of $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ increased as the annealing temperature increased.

The European Union (EU) is the world's third largest producer of beef. This contributes to the economy, rural development, social life, culture and gastronomy of Europe. The diversity of breeds, animal types (cows, bulls, steers, heifers) and farming systems (intensive, extensive on permanent or temporary pastures, mixed, breeders, feeders, etc) is a strength, and a weakness as the industry is often fragmented and poorly connected. There are also societal concerns regarding animal welfare and environmental issues, despite some positive environmental impacts of farming systems. The EU is amongst the most efficient for beef production as demonstrated by a relative low production of greenhouse gases. Due to regional differences in terms of climate, pasture availability, livestock practices and farms characteristics, productivity and incomes of beef producers vary widely across regions, being among the lowest of the agricultural systems. The beef industry is facing unprecedented challenges related to animal welfare, environmental impact, origin, authenticity, nutritional benefits and eating quality of beef. These may affect the whole industry, especially its farmers. It is therefore essential to bring the beef industry together to spread best practice and better exploit research to maintain and develop an economically viable and sustainable beef industry. Meeting consumers' expectations may be achieved by a better prediction of beef palatability using a modelling approach, such as in Australia. There is a need for accurate information and dissemination on the benefits and issues of beef for human health and for environmental impact. A better objective description of goods and services derived from livestock farming is also required. Putting into practice "agroecology" and organic farming principles are other potential avenues for the future. Different future scenarios can be written depending on the major driving forces, notably meat consumption, climate change, environmental policies and future organization of the supply chain.
