Modal fabric was pretreated with sodium hydroxide, sodium persulfate, and their combined mixture by pad-steaming procedure. The tearing strength of the pretreated modal fabric was measured for subsequent microfibrillation. The solubility of modal fiber in sodium hydroxide solution was highest at 10 % concentration of sodium hydroxide. Extended steaming of the modal fabric padded with 6% sodium hydroxide solution did not reduce the tearing strength appreciably. 2% sodium persulfate pretreatment greatly reduced the tearing strength of modal fabric within 7 minutes of steaming time. The pretreatment with combined composition of sodium hydroxide and sodium persulfate brought about stable reduction in tearing strength within 1 minute of steaming time, which would be appricable to the continuous pretreatment of modal fabric for microfibrillation. Microfibrillation behavior of the pretreated modal fabric was tested also.

Thermally expandable microspheres were used as post-treatment initiators of potassium persulfate, sodium bisulfite, and sodium sulfide in order to improve the foaming ability and whiteness when foaming a mixture of thermally expandable microsphers and poly(vinyl chloride). Potassium persulfate showed no significant influence on the foaming behavior, foam expansion, whiteness, and yellowing, whereas in the case of using sodium bisulfite. In particular, sodium bisulfite demonstrated the best efficiency with 2 wt% treatment. The thermally expandable microspheres prepared herein can provide excellent foamability and whiteness, and are expected to be applicable in various fields such as general coating and wallpaper.

Batch tests were carried out to evaluate the thermal treatment of low volatile organic compounds in low-permeability soil. The chemical oxidation by sodium persulfate catalyzed by heat and Fe (II) was evaluated. Enhanced persulfate oxidation of n-decane (C-10), n-dodecane (C-12), n-tetradecane (C-14), n-hexadecane (C-16), and phenanthrene was observed with thermal catalyst, indicating increased sulfate radical production. Slight enhancement of the pollutants oxidation was observed when initial sodium persulfate concentration increased from 5 to 50 g/L. However, the removal efficiency greatly decreased as soil/water ratio increased. It indicates that mass transfer of the pollutants as well as the contact between the pollutants and sulfate radical were inhibited in the presence of solids. In addition, more pollutants can be adsorbed on soil particles and soil oxidant demand increased when soil/water ratio becomes higher. The oxidation of the pollutants was significantly improved when catalyzed by Fe(II). The sodium persulfate consumption increased at the same time because the residual Fe(II) acts as the sulfate radical scavenger.

Sodium persulfate, prestogen W, prestogen EB, citric acid 및 thiourea의 첨가에 따른 $H_2O_2$ 표백 효과가 연구되었다. Sodium persulfate(1%), Prestogen EB(15.0%)를 $H_2O_2$ 활성제로 첨가하여 표백할 경우 기존 $H_2O_2$ 표백(86.0% ISO)보다 표백 펄프의 백색도가 2-3% ISO 더 증가하였다. $H_2O_2$ 표백 후 thiourea를 첨가하여 표백하는 산화-환원 연속표백(87.9% ISO)에서도 $H_2O_2$ 표백 후 FAS로 2단 표백(88.3% ISO)을 한 경우와 비슷한 백색도를 나타내었다. 한편 표백 펄프의 인장지수, 파열지수 그리고 인열지수는 기존 표백 또는 Prestogen EB를 첨가할 경우 높고 sodium persulfate 첨가에서 가장 낮았다. 산화-환원 연속 표백된 펄프의 강도도 기존 $H_2O_2$ 표백보다 미세하게 낮았다.

과황산암모늄 (ammonium persulfate), 과황산칼륨(potassium persulfate), 과황산나트륨(sodium persulfate)에 대한 작업 노출기준은 perfulfate ($S_2O_8$) 형태로서 0.1 $mg/m^3$(TLV-TWA)으로 권고하였다. 이 기준치는 피부 자극 및 피부염을 포함한 피부 또는 기관지계 관련 질환 발생을 최소화하기 위해 설정되었다. 몇몇 연구 자료에 의하면 이 물질들에 노출되면 폐 자극 증세도 나타난다고 보고되고 있다. 또한 이 TLV는 전신독성 측면보다는 자극 영향 측면에 근거를 두어 제안하였다. "감작제(SEN)", 발암성, TLV-STEL에 대한 설정은 유용한 자료의 부족으로 아직 권고하지 않고 있다.

Batch tests were carried out to examine the influence of the presence of soil and Fe(II) sorption capacity of soil on the ferrous catalyzed sodium persulfate oxidation for the destruction of organic pollutants in the application of in-situ chemical oxidation. Laboratory column tests were also conducted to investigate the transport of oxidant and catalyst in contaminated groundwater. Test results proved that Fe(II) was adsorbed on soil surface, and thus soil behaved as a heterogeneous catalyst, enhancing the naphthalene removal rate up to 50%. Column tests that were conducted with and without dissolved Fe(II) showed that naphthalene removal ratio were 24% and 25%, respectively. The removal efficiency was not enhanced with dissolved Fe(II), since the dissolved Fe(II) flew out of the column as the oxidant progressively injected into the column saturated with Fe(II). It indicates that the injected oxidant could not interact with dissolved Fe(II). But target organic pollutant was degraded in soil column system, implying that sulfate radical was produced by the reaction of dissolved persulfate with Fe(II) adsorbed on soil.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the oxidation method to remove endocrine disrupting chemicals in reverse osmosis(RO) retentate for the reuse of wastewater effluent. Oxidation of organic pollutants was induced by the persulfate catalyzed by Fe(II). Affecting factors such as initial pH and ionic strength on the Fe(II) catalyzed persulfate oxidation were evaluated. $17{\alpha}$-ethynylestradiol (EE2) degradation efficiency decreased as pH and ionic strength increased. However, the efficiency increased as chloride ion concentration increased due to the influence of radical transfer.

The objective of this study was to determine on optimum ratio of oxidant and catalyst and to evaluate affecting factors such as anions and cations on persulfate oxidation of organic pollutant. Fe(II) activated the persulfate anion to produce a sulfate free radicals and thus effectively used to degrade the target organic pollutant in aqueous system. The chloride ions reacted with sulfate radical produced the $Cl^{\cdot}$ atom and had positive effects on the oxidation of organic pollutant at the initial stage. However, it was observed that chloride ions had the scavenging effects on the rate of oxidation of organic pollutant. Cations and some heavy metals were partly able to activate the persulfate anion to generate a sulfate free radical. However, high levels of cations inhibited the oxidation of organic pollutant.

ETA (ethanolamine), a pH control agent, has been used as an ammonia substitute in the secondary system of nuclear power plants since 2001. It is impossible to remove ETA from the wastewater treatment system in the nuclear power plant operating currently, because it is the non-biodegradable organics in terms of the environmental. The optimum process and chemicals for the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) & N with the field sample were investigated. More than 95% of Ammonium ions, contained much in wastewater, was removed with a diffused aeration system. COD could be removed over 90% through the process that includes the oxidation with mixed peroxidants (sodium persulfate/sodium percarbonate) followed by the physicochemical treatment with coagulants.

In order to investigate the degree of solubilization of sewage sludge using sono-activated persulfate(UV/PP), VSS reduction rate, solubilization rate and extracellular polymeric substances were measured. Ultrasonic(US) and alkali·ultrasonic method using sodium hydroxide(US/SH) were compared. Under the persulfate·ultrasonic conditions, the VSS reduction rate and the solubilization rate increased to 27.6% and 58.9%, respectively. TB-EPS as Carbohydrate and Protein were extracted by 770 mg/L and 2,162 mg/L. Compared to the other methods, US and US/SH, the VSS reduction rate and solubilization rate were higher. And also, according to the TB-EPS values, cell wall destruction was more efficient.
