This study was conducted to investigate the effect of ozonated water and ozonated water+hydrogen peroxide treatment of residual procymidone in perilla leaf containing 20 mg/L procymidone. Samples was treated with ozonated water containing 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 mg $O_3/L$ ozone and hydrogen peroxide water containing 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 mg $H_2O_2/L$ hydrogen peroxide in pH 5, 7 and 9, respectively, at $15^{\circ}C$. Procymidone removal rate was 26.5% in 7 days at $15^{\circ}C$ and optimum condition of procymidone removal was the case of treating with ozonated water containing 2.0 mg $O_3/L$ and pH 9. As the result procymidone removal rate was about 96.5%. In this case of adding hydrogen peroxide, optimum condition of procymidone removal was $1:0.5{\sim}1(O_3:H_2O_2)$. However, procymidone was nearly removed with the treatment of hydrogen peroxide water only.

Evaluation of long term stability of the Brinell standard hardness tester was carried out to secure its application as a national standard in Brinell hardness. Accuracy and repeatability in load application were tested through evaluating errors in hardness measurement of certified reference blocks. All of those requirements in KS as well as ISO specifications were satisfied by this standard hardness tester. In addition to this, long term stability test of automatic indentation measurement system was carried out. The scattering range was almost the same with its error range. To figure out an optimum test condition for better repeatability and long term stability, the effect of load variation, load application speed and time have been studied using orthogonal array experimental plan. It was found that the best combination is $30{\mu}m/s$ of load application speed and 25 seconds of load application time.

This study was carried out to obtain the optimum design factors for an eletrolytric flotation reactor. When the effluent of the leachate treatment facility was treated under the condition of 10 volts, 30 minutes, at the Al-Al electrode system; COD removal efficiency was 45%, and total phosphorus removal efficiency was 98%. The high removal efficiency was caused by the fact that phosphate was removed by leaching $Al^{3+}$ from two electrodes. The leachate containing high ammonium nitrogen concentration was treated by a batch test under the condition of 60 minutes reaction time and added chloride ion; ammonium nitrogen removal efficiency was 89%. This high efficiency was affected by added chloride ion to wastewater. To find the optimum current density and voltage of the leachate containing chloride ion (ratio of $Cl^-/NH_4-N$ is 11) a electrochemical polarization curve was used. These values were found to be $4.5mA/cm^2$ and about 2.1 V, respectively. When C-Al electrode system was used at a batch test, the total nitrogen removal efficiency was increased by 1.8 to 3.3 times, compared to Al-Al electrode system due to high $Cl_2$ gas production.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of photocatalysis using $TiO_2$ and UV applied for the COD reduction of wastewater in linerboard mill. Trials were done to obtain the optimum addition amounts of $TiO_2$ and $H_2O_2$ to the wastewater and find an appropriate pH condition for photocatalysis on $TiO_2$ for degrading COD. The photocatalytic reaction was applied to the wastewater collected after secondary activated sludge treatment in WWTP of linerboard mill. The optimum application of photocatalysis reaction was obtained under the addition conditions of 2 g/L of $TiO_2$ and 200 mg/L of $H_2O_2$ at pH 3.0, respectively. The removal efficiency of $SCOD_{Cr}$ by photocatalytic treatment was 86.4 % and higher than Fenton treatment in which removal efficiency was 67.4 %. It was concluded that the photocatalytic process using $TiO_2$ and UV could be applied to the wastewater treatment in linerboard mill and also to the dramatic drop-off in NBDCOD load from wastewater of tertiary treatment in WWTP.

An atmospheric plasma pre-treatment method was applied to EVA foam, Leather (Action), Rubber and Unwoven to improve its contact angle and adhesion using atmospheric plate type reactor. In order to investigate the optimum reaction condition of plasma treatment, type of reaction gas (nitrogen), rate of gas flow (30~100 mL/min), and reaction time (0~30 sec) were examined in a plate plasma reactor. The result of the surface modification with respect to the treatment procedure was characterized by using SEM. Due to a decrease of the contact angle of various materials, the greatest adhesion strength was achieved at optimum condition such as flow rate of 100 mL/min, reaction time of 10 second for an atmosphere nitrogen gas. Consequently, the atmospheric plasma treatment reduced the contact angle of the EVA foam, Leather (Action) and Rubber also resulted in the improvement of the adhesion.

Spirulina platensis NIES 39 was grown in effluents from a wastewater treatment plant utilizing activated sludge process at a pig farm to reduce pollutants and to produce feed resources. The addition of 2 g/l NaCl was required for the growth of S. platensis in the effluents with about 100 mg/l ammonia nitrogen concentration. The growth was stimulated by the addition of 2 g/l sodium bicarbonate and 4 mg/l ferrous sulfate. The microorganism grew well at pH 8~11, and the optimum pH for the growth was 10. The algal concentration of 1.1 g/l was attained after 8 days of growth at the optimum condition with the removal of 95% ammonia nitrogen and 34% phosphorus.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimum condition for silk sericin collection from degumming solution using some aluminium salts with various treatment conditions and examine the thermal properties of silk sericin collected from degumming solution. Silk sericin was precipitated by treatment of aluminium metal compound from degumming solution. The best optimum collecting conditions of silk sericin from degumming solution are the concentration of 2 $m\ell$/l of polyaluminium chloride (PAC), pH range of 5~7 and room temperature. The reduction of water pollution was evaluated by decreasing the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and nitrate ion (NO$_3$￣). Thermal stability of silk sericin collected from degumming solution was a little lower than that of hot water.

Four strains of yeasts were chosen from those isolated previously, and a strain from 160 isolates collected in this year were examined for the treatment of pulp waste liquor. Experiments about optimum nutrient condition, composition of cells, and reduction of B.O.D. on the "S" pulp industry waste liquor were performed with 5 strains. 1. The isolates(strain 112) was identified as Candida utilis. 2. The optium concentration of 4 components of nutrients were ($NH_4$)$SO_2$lg/l, yeast extract 70mg/l, $KH_2PO_4$ 300mg/l, and $MgSO_4{\ddot}7H_2O$ 500mg/l. 3. Specific growth ratio of Candida utilis KYRI 112 was 0.48/hr at optimum nutrient media and the yield was 0.45%(V/V). 4. Endomycopsis capsularis KYRI 613 contained more crude protein than the most of commercial yeasts. 5. The B.O.D. of waste liquor was reduced ro 20% of its value by the culture.e culture.

The laser beam hardening has been experimentally tried to find the hardened characteristics of STD11. Experiment was performed on the optimum hardening condition with 2kW $CO_2$ laser. The microstructure of the hardened layers was observed using the microscope. The hardened zones exhibits very high Vickers microhardness of 720 Hv, however, the deoxidation was observed under the surface of hardened area. The case depth of hardened zones is about 0.6mrn and case width is 4mm. FEM-simulation on laser surface hardening of STD11 steel are described. With the proper assumption of the absorbed energy density, the calculated case depth and width in 2 kW $CO_2$ laser hardening were in good agreement with the experimental result. It was found that there is optimum absorbed energy density of STD11.

In this study, 25gsm melt-blown polypropylene nonwoven for dust-proof/medical masks was finished by the corona discharging treatment. The influence of corona discharging parameters on the filtration efficiency was investigated. Several parameters such as discharging voltage, discharging speed, distance to discharging wire and configuration of discharging system had an effect on filtration efficiency, while the parameters had no effect on breathing resistance. Optimum corona discharging conditions are as follows: Wires were installed on the upper part of the nonwoven and paper pipe was installed on the lower part of the nonwoven having a distance of 5cm. The sequence of wire voltages was +60 kV, +60 kV, 0, -60 kV, and -60 kV. The discharging voltage and speed were 60 kV and 30m/min respectively. The nonwoven treated by corona discharging at the optimum condition showed a filtration efficiency of 80% or more, which is suitable for dust-proof/medical masks.
