To improve the electrochemical and mechanical characteristics, engineering plastic of the sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) as polymer matrix was prepared in the sulfonation reaction of polyether ether ketone (PEEK). The SPEEK organic-inorganic blended composite membranes were prepared by sol-gel casting method. It was loaded with the highly dispersed ceria and cesium-substituted molybdosilicic acid (Cs-MoSiA) and 1,4-diiodobutane which was cross-linking agent contents of $10{\mu}L$. Cs-MoSiA was added to increase proton conductivity. Ceria ($CeO_2$) was used as a free radical scavenger which degrade the membrane in polymer electrolyte membrane water elctrolysis (PEMWE). In conclusion, CL-SPEEK/Cs-MoSiA/Ceria 1% composite membrane showed high proton conductivity 0.2104 S/cm at $25^{\circ}C$ which was better than Nafion 117 membrane.

에탄을 전화반응 및 MTBE (methyl t-butyl ether)분해반응을 통하여 헤테로폴리산 촉매가 지니는 표면 및 내부 산점의 역할과 형성에 대하여 살펴 보았다. 12-텅스토인산에서 에탄올 탈수반응을 수행할 경우 디에틸에테르는 표면산점에서 생성되며 에틸렌은 촉매 내부산점에서 생성된다. 물은 산점을 강화하는 역할을 하지만 유기염기의 경우 내부 산점을 약화시킨다. 금속염의 산점 형성은 결정수의 가수분해 혹은 금속의 부분적 치환에 따른 양성자에 기인하며 수소로 처리할 경우 산점이 재생되었다. 또한 산 특성 제어를 통하여 선택적 산화반응 촉매로서의 헤테로폴리산 설계가 가능하다.

퇴적토는 미사 및 점토와 같은 미세토의 함량이 높으며, 유기물질이 많으며, 완충능이 크기 때문에 퇴적토로부터 중금속을 제거하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 본 연구에서는, 중금속으로 오염된 퇴적토에서 중금속을 제거하기 위해 2 V/cm의 일정한 전압경사를 적용한 실험실 규모의 전기동력학적 (EK) 정화공법을 사용하였다. 실험을 위해 적용한 음극 전해질로는 0.1 M의 ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), citric acid (CA), $HNO_3$, HCl, 그리고 수돗물을 사용하였으며, 양극 전해질로는 수돗물을 사용하여 순환시켜 주었다. 음극 전해질로 CA를 사용한 실험군에서 Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb는 각각 초기와 비교하여 92.4, 96.1, 97.1, 88.1%의 중금속 제거효율을 보였다. 높은 전압경사를 적용하게 되면, 음극 전해질내에 citrate 및 EDTA가 퇴적토로 이동이 용이하게 되며, 그로 인해 중금속-킬레이트 화합물을 형성하여 중금속의 추출률을 높일 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로, 높은 전압경사를 적용한 EK 실험에서 음극 전해질로 EDTA 혹은 CA를 사용하면 퇴적토로부터 중금속을 효과적으로 추출할 수 있다고 판단된다.

Electro-coagulation experiments were conducted with aluminum (Al) or iron (Fe) electrode in order to determine the optimal electrode material and operation conditions for algae removal. Al electrode showed higher removal rate of algae than Fe electrode because Al flocs have positive surface charges which electrostatically attract algae species having negative surface charges. Removal rate of algae and total phosphorous (T-P) was increased as current density and electrode area increases. It was also found that initial pH with neutral range was optimum for T-P removal by electro-coagulation. Bench-scale continuous flow experiments consisted of electro-coagulation reactor, agitation tank and settling tank were conducted. In electro-coagulation reactor, a large fraction of Al flocs were distributed to scum layer, due to the gas bubbles generated by electrolysis reaction. In agitation tank, most of Al flocs were settled and the optimal mixing intensity was found to be 50 rpm to achieve good settleability. The removal rate of algae was about 90-95%. Additionally, the removal rate of the T-P and COD was observed to be $73.8{\pm}8.0%$ and $75.0{\pm}3.8%$, respectively. Meanwhile, the removal rate of total nitrogen (T-N) was relatively low at only 24%.

A lab-scale Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (ABR) was applied to treat a primary sludge taken from a municipal wastewater treatment plant. In this experiment, acidogenic reaction was promoted by operating the ABR with short hydraulic retention time (HRT) to produce sufficient volatile fatty acids (VFA) instead of production of methane. The performance of ABR on the VFA production and total solids reduction was observed with different operating conditions with 2, 4, 6, and 8 days of HRT. Corresponding organic loading rates were 6.7, 3.4, 2.2, and $1.6kgCOD_{cr}/m^3{\cdot}day$. As HRT increased the removal rate of TCOD was also increased (82.5, 84.2, 96.9, and 95.9 % in average for HRT of 2, 4, 6, and 8 days, respectively) because the settlement of solids was enhanced in the baffle by the decrease of upflow velocity. At HRT of 2 days the average concentration of VFA in the effluent was measured at $1,306{\pm}552$ mgCOD/L corresponding to 107 % increment as compared to the VFA concentration in the influent. However, as HRT increased VFA concentraiotn was decreased to $143{\pm}552$ mgCOD/L at HRT of 8 days. The reduction rates of total solids were 12.2, 26.5, 24.8, and 43.0 % for HRT of 2, 4, 6, and 8 days. As HRT increased the hydrolysis of organic particulate matters in the reactor was enhanced due to the increasing of solids retention time in the baffle zone with low upflow velocity in long HRT condition. Consequently, we found that a primary sludge became a good source of VFA production by the application of ABR process with HRT less than 4 days and the 12-26 % of total solids reduction was expected at these conditions.

Plasma in liquid phase has attracted great attention in the last few years by the wide domain of applications in material processing, decomposition of organic and inorganic chemical compounds and sterilization of water. The plasma in liquid is characterized by three main regions which interact each - other during the plasma operation: the liquid phase, which supply the plasma gas phase with various chemical compounds and ions, the plasma in the gas phase at atmospheric pressure and the interface between these two regions. The most complex region, but extremely interesting from the fundamental, chemical and physical processes which occur here, is the boundary between the liquid phase and the plasma gas phase. In our laboratory, plasma in liquid which behaves as a glow discharge type, is generated by using a bipolar pulsed power supply, with variable pulse width, in the range of 0.5~10 ${\mu}s$ and 10 to 30 kHz repetition rate. Plasma in water and other different solutions was characterized by electrical and optical measurements. Strong emissions of OH and H radicals dominate the optical spectra. Generally water with 500 ${\mu}S/cm$ conductivity has a breakdown voltage around 2 kV, depending on the pulse width and the repetition rate of the power supply. The characteristics of the plasma initiated in ultrapure water between pairs of different materials used for electrodes (W and Ta) were investigated by the time-resolved optical emission and the broad-band absorption spectroscopy. The deexcitation processes of the reactive species formed in the water plasma depend on the electrode material, but have been independent on the polarity of the applied voltage pulses. Recently, Coherent anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy method was employed to investigate the chemistry in the liquid phase and at the interface between the gas and the liquid phases of the solution plasma system. The use of the solution plasma allows rapid fabrication of the metal nanoparticles without being necessary the addition of different reducing agents, because plasma in the liquid phase provides a reaction field with a highly excited energy radicals. We successfully synthesized gold nanoparticles using a glow discharge in aqueous solution. Nanoparticles with an average size of less than 10 nm were obtained using chlorauric acid solutions as the metal source. Carbon/Pt hybrid nanostructures have been obtained by treating carbon balls, synthesized in a CVD chamber, with hexachloro- platinum acid in a solution plasma system. The solution plasma was successfully used to remove the template remained after the mesoporous silica synthesis. Surface functionalization of the carbon structures and the silica surface with different chemical groups and nanoparticles, was also performed by processing these materials in the liquid plasma.

비이온성 계면활성제인 Ethoxylated Nonyl Phenol 계열(NP-Series)을 초임계 이산화탄소내 마이크로에멀젼 형성 연구에 적용하였다. 초임계 이산화탄소내 용해도 측정결과, 기존에 잘 알려진 친이산화탄소성 계면활성제가 아님에도 안정적인 용해도를 나타내었고, 물과의 마이크로에멀젼 형성에 있어서도 안정적으로 형성되었다. 마이크로에멀젼 형성을 위한 NP-시리즈 계면활성제의 친이산화탄소성기에 대한 친수성기의 길이 배합을 실험을 통해 NP-4 계면활성제(N=4)로 최적화하였다. 마이크로에멀젼 형성을 분광학적 방법인 UV-Visible 스펙트럼을 측정하여 확인하고, 마이크로에멀젼내 물의 존재성도 확인하였다. 금속표면처리나 도금의 적용을 위해 산성용액과 마이크로에멀젼 형성을 실험한 결과, 이온성 계면활성제는 산성용액과의 반응에서 마이크로에멀젼 형성이 불안정해지는 반면, 비이온성 계면활성제는 안정적으로 형성되었다. 본 연구결과는 친환경적 용매인 이산화탄소의 응용분야를 보다 넓힐 수 있을 것이다.

As an ozone contactor, we newly adopted HJLR (High-performance Jet Loop Reactor) for the decolorization of Reactive black 5 and the mineralization of oxalic acid, which has been applied exclusively in biological wastewater treatments and well-known for high oxygen transfer characteristics. The ozonation efficiency for organic removals and ozone utilization depending on the mass transfer rate were compared to those of Stirred bubble column reactor, which was controlled by varing energy input in the HJLR and Stirred bubble column reactor. The results were as follows; first, the decolorization rate of Reactive black 5 in the HJLR reactor was nearly proportional to the increasing $k_La$. When the $k_La$ was increased by 25 % from $13.0hr^{-1}$ to $16.4hr^{-1}$, 30 % of the k' (apparent reaction rate constant) was increased from 0.1966 to $0.2665min^{-1}$ (Stirred bubble column; from 0.1790 to $0.2564min^{-1}$). Ozone transfer was found to be a rate-determining step in decolorizing Reactive black 5, which was supported by that no residual ozone was detected in all of the experiments. Second, the mineralization of oxalic acid was not always proportional to the increasing $k_La$ in the RJLR reactor. The rate-determining step for this reaction was OH(OH radical) production with ozone transfer, because residual ozone was always detected during the ozonation of oxalic acid in contrast with Reactive black 5. This result indicates that the increase of $k_La$ in the HJLR reactor is beneficial only when there are in ozone transfer limited regions. In addition, regardless of $k_La$, the mineralization of oxalic acid was nearly accomplished within 60 minutes. It was interpreted as that the longer staying of residual ozone by whirling liquid in the HJLR reactor contributed to an high ozone utilization(83-94%), producing more OR radicals.

폐광산 지역에서 발생하는 광산배수의 오염원소중 하나인 구리(Cu)는 낮은 농도에서도 독성을 지니고 있어 수계환경에 노출되기 전에 처리되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 경남 고성군 S광산의 갱내수 정화시설의 Cu 제거효율을 개선하기 위해 석회석과 폐상퇴비를 혼합한 자연정화 기반의 반응조를 이용하여 약 9개월 동안 현장 파일럿실험을 수행하였다. 반응조별 유입수 대비 pH 증가량과 Cu 제거효율은 Successive Alkalinity Producing System (SAPS) > Reducing and Alkalinity Producing System (RAPS) > 석회석반응조 순으로 나타났다. SAPS조와 RAPS조에서는 석회석의 영향과 동시에 유기물의 분해로 인한 알칼리도의 부과로 석회석반응조보다 높은 pH 환경을 조성하였다. pH가 증가할수록 Cu 제거효율이 높아지는 결과를 통해 pH 상승이 Cu를 처리하는 주된 기작임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 황산염환원박테리아(Sulfate Reduction Bacteria, SRB)가 SAPS조에서 가장 많이 활성화 된 것을 확인 할 수 있어, 황산염환원반응도 Cu를 제거시키는 기작에 관여함을 판단할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 S광산에서 발생하는 광산배수의 특성에 알맞은 맞춤형 정화공정을 도출하기 위해 현장 그대로의 조건에서 실험을 수행한 것에 의의가 있으며, 향후 정화시설의 개선에 있어 공법 선정에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.
