  • Nitrous acid는 태양광선의 존재 하에 광분해 되어 히드록실 라디칼(hydroxyl radical, OH)을 발생시키는 대류권 오존생성 원인 물질이다. 대기화학에 있어서 Nitrous acid의 중요성을 보면, 야간에 농도가 증가된 Nitrous acid는 태양광이 존재하는 아침부터 광분해 (<390nm)로 히드록실 라디칼을 생성하여 오존생성반응을 일어나게 하는 것으로 대기 중 오존의 생성에 중요한 역할을 한다. 반면에 Nitric acid는 reactive nitrogen compounds(즉 NO, NO$_2$ 그리고 $N_2$O$_{5}$)의 주된 최종 생성물질이다.

  • Hourly variation of gaseous nitrous acid( HNO$_2$) concentration in Seoul air was monitored from Jan. 11 to SeP. 12, Nitrous acid concentration was determined by DS/IC over nine months of observation, HNO$_2$ range from 0.04 ppb to 5.5 ppb. Gor-tex tube as gaseous HNO$_2$generator in this study is thought to be more convenient and reproducible device than previous generator. As a result of NaOH instead of Na$_2$ CO$_3$/NaHCO$_3$ solution as the IC eluent, we could obtain more stable baseline. The concentration of the NaOH eluent was 15 mM . The limit of detection(3$\sigma$) of the liquid- Phase and gas phase nitrous acid of this method are 1.1ng/$m\ell$ , 0.04 n $\ell$ / $\ell$, respectively. The precisions evaluated by 10 replicate analysis of standard solution and standard gas generated are $\pm$1.59, $\pm$2. 89% RSD, respectively. Due to the lack of standard material for air, direct assessment of the accuracy was not possible. This study was applied to the analysis of Seoul ambient air and their results are reported herein.

  • A sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was operated to obtain thiosulfate-utilizing denitrifier cultivated with two types of electron accepter (nitrate and nitrite). Using the microbial biomass obtained from the SBR, batch tests were conducted with different nitrite concentrations (50 and 100 mg-N/L) at pH 7.0, 7.5 and 7.9 to see how free nitrous acid (FNA) negatively works on the thiosulfate-utilizing denitrification of nitrate. The specific denitrification rate (SDR) of nitrate was significantly influenced by pH and FNA. The presence of nitrite caused a remarked decrease of the SDR under low pH conditions, because of the microbiological inhibitory effect of FNA. The minimum SDR was observed when initial nitrite concentration was 100 mg-N/L at pH 7.0. Moreover. the SDR was influenced by the type of electron acceptor used during the SBR operation. Thiosulfate-utilizing denitrifier cultivated with nitrite showed smaller SDR on the thiosulfate-utilizing denitrification of nitrate than those cultivated with nitrate.

  • The changes of Np oxidation state in nitric acid and the effect of nitrous acid on the oxidation state were analyzed by spectrophotometry, solvent extraction, and electrochemical methods. An enhancement of Np extraction to 30 vol.% TBP was carried out through adjustment of Np oxidation state by using a glassy carbon fiber column electrode system. The information of electrolytic behavior of nitric acid was important because the nitrous acid affecting the Np redox reaction was generated during the electrolytic adjustment of the Np oxidation state. The Np solution used in this work consisted of Np(V) and Np(Ⅵ)without (IV). The composition of Np(V) in the range of 0.5M -5.5 M nitric acid was 32% ~ 19%. The electrolytic oxidation of Np(V) to Np(Ⅵ)in the solution enhanced Np extraction efficiency about five times higher than the case without the electrolytic oxidation. It was confirmed that the nitrous acid of less than about 10-5 M acted as a catalyst to accelerate the chemical oxidation reaction of Np(V) to Np(Ⅵ).

  • Nitrous oxide ($N_2O$) is one of six greenhouse gases listed up in the Kyoto Protocol, and it effects a strong global warming because of its much greater global warming potential (GWP), by 310 times over a 100-year time horizon, than $CO_2$. Although such $N_2O$ emissions from both natural and anthropogenic sources occur, the latter can be controlled using suitable abatement technologies, depending on them, to reduce $N_2O$ below acceptable or feasible levels. This paper has extensively reviewed the anthropogenic $N_2O$ emission sources and their related compositions, and the state-of-the-art non-catalytic and catalytic technologies of the emissions controls available currently to representative, large $N_2O$ emission sources, such as adipic acid production plants. Challengeable approaches to this source are discussed to promote establishment of advanced $N_2O$ emission control technologies.

  • Diazotization of 3-amino-2-ethoxycarbonylthieno[2,3-b]quinoxaline 1 gave the diazonium salt 2 which was reacted with SO2 and N-methylaniline to give sulfamoylquinoxaline derivatives 3-5. Imidazothienoquinoxaline 8 was obtained from the reaction of carboxylic acid hydrazide 6 with nitrous acid and followed by boilling the carboazide 7 in dry xylene. Also, compound 6 react with CH(OEt)3 to give aminopyrimidine 9 which was reacted with arylidene malonodinitrile, furfural and/or dimethoxy-tetrahydrofuran to afford compounds 10, 11 and/or 12 respectively. Refluxing of 6 with CS2 gave oxadiazolylthienoquinoxaline 13, reaction of 13 with hyrazine hydrate, CH(OEt)3, nitrous acid, CS2 and a-halocompounds to give 14-19.

  • 오존은 태양광선의 존재 하에 질소산화물과 VOCs가 관련하여 발생하는 생성물이다. 대기중의 VOCs 는 히드록실 라디칼(hydroxyl radical, OHㆍ)과 같은 자유 라디칼(free radical)과 반응하여 하이드로퍼옥시 라디칼(hydroperoxy radical, HO$_2$ㆍ)과 알킬 퍼옥시 라디칼(alkyl peroxy radical, RO$_2$ㆍ)을 생성해 낸다. 이 퍼옥시 라디칼들은 NO를 NO$_2$ㆍ로 산화시키며 또한 히드록실 라디칼을 재생하며 이 히드록실 라디칼은 다시 VOCs와 반응한다. 그리고, 이때 산화된 NO$_2$는 햇빛에 의해 NO와 자유산소원자(free oxygen atom)로 광분해 되는데, 여기서 생성된 자유산소인자는 산소분자와 반응하여 오존을 생성한다.

  • A sequencing batch reactor was operated under different pH conditions to see the influence of free ammonia (FA) and free nitrous acid (FNA) to microbial community on ammonium partial nitrification. Long-term influences of FA and FNA were evaluated by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Nitrite accumulation was successfully achieved at pH 8.2 and 6.3. The shifts in the microbial community were observed when influent ammonia concentration increased to 1 g $NH_4$-N/L at pH 8.2, and then when pH was dropped to 6.3. Both Nitrosomonas and Nitrosospira were selected during the startup of the reactor, and eventually became dominant members as ammonia-oxidizing bacteria. The results of molecular microbiological analysis strongly suggested that the composition of microbial community was changed according to the method used to control nitrite-oxidizing bacteria.

  • The reactions of nitrous acid with hydrogen peroxide in acidic aqueous solution in the presence of several added anions have been studied at $0^{\circ}C$ and pH 2-4 to investigate the nucleophilic catalysis of these anions. From the dependence of reaction rates on the anion concentrations, significant catalytic effects were found for $Cl^-,\;Br^-,\;SCN^-$, in order of effect $SCN^-\;{\approx}\;Br^->Cl^-$, while no observable effect was found for ${ClO_4}^-$ and ${NO_3}^-$. These results support O-nitrosation reaction is the rate-determining step and NOX formed in the presence of an anion ($X^-$) also acts as a nitrosating agent and accelerates the overall reaction rate. The order of reactivity was found to be NOCl>NOBr>NOSCN, which is consistent with the results of N-nitrosation and S-nitrosation reactions.

  • This study was conducted to observe the cause of injury of fig plant. Nitrogen dioxide gas can be evolved at low pH or reduced in soil. Fig plant cultivated with nutrient solution was wilted or withered. Injury symptom for nutrient solution containing nitrous acid was worse as pH of soil decreased. However, increase in pH of nutrient solution treated with increasing $Ca(OH)_2$ solution prevented nutrient solution from producing nitrogen dioxide gas. Recovery of the fig plant by pH increase indicated that the cause of injury was nitrogen dioxide gas.
