  • Surface ozone is produced by photochemical reactions of nitrogen oxides(NOx) and volatile organic compounds(VOCs) emitted from vehicles and industrial sites, adversely affecting vegetation and the human body. In South Korea, ozone is monitored in real-time at stations(i.e., point measurements), but it is difficult to monitor and analyze its continuous spatial distribution. In this study, surface ozone concentrations were interpolated to have a spatial resolution of 1.5km every hour using the stacking ensemble technique, followed by a 5-fold cross-validation. Base models for the stacking ensemble were cokriging, multi-linear regression(MLR), random forest(RF), and support vector regression(SVR), while MLR was used as the meta model, having all base model results as additional input variables. The results showed that the stacking ensemble model yielded the better performance than the individual base models, resulting in an averaged R of 0.76 and RMSE of 0.0065ppm during the study period of 2020. The surface ozone concentration distribution generated by the stacking ensemble model had a wider range with a spatial pattern similar with terrain and urbanization variables, compared to those by the base models. Not only should the proposed model be capable of producing the hourly spatial distribution of ozone, but it should also be highly applicable for calculating the daily maximum 8-hour ozone concentrations.

  • This paper presents a model for a pin-to-cylinder discharge type ozonizer, which utilizes the superposition of surface discharge and corona discharge operation. By changing the gas flow rate, the discharge power and the number of SDO units, the characteristics of ozone concentration ( $O_{3con}$), ozone generation ( $O_{3g}$) and ozone yield ( $O_{3Y}$) were investigated. Using one SDO unit the maximum values of $O_{3con}$, $O_{3g}$ and $O_{3Y}$ were found as 8100[ppm], 1623[mg/h] and 213[g/kWh] respectively. With two SDO units the corresponding values were found as 12800[ppm], 2893[mg/h] and 248[g/kWh] respectively. Hence using two SDO units the efficiency was improved by 16[%].y 16[%].

  • A study on the fouling control by periodical ozone-scrubbing was conducted in a membrane filtration process for drinking water treatment. Hydrophilic hollow fiber polyethylene membrane with pore size of $0.1{\mu}m$ and its surface area of $0.42m^2$ was used. Dead-End filtration method was selected to obtain high efficiency of energy. Laboratory prepared synthetic raw water with kaolin was used and the membranes were scrubbed by ozone once in an hour and once in two hours. When the duration of ozone scrubbing was increased from 10 seconds to 20 seconds, the rate of membrane fouling was significantly decreased. Although the frequency of ozone-scrubbing was reduced from once in an hour to once in two hours. the effect of fouling control was unchanged. However, ozone-scrubbing was not effective after a membrane was fouled and washed with detergent for reuse. Among several possible working effects of ozone, bactericidal effect was confirmed to be the primary reason of fouling control.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the optimal conditions for the growth of soybean sprouts by ozone water watering. Optimal conditions for ozone water watering of soybean sprouts during cultivation at 2$0^{\circ}C$ were evaluated with ozone concentration(0.1~O.5 ppm) and watering frequency(1~9 times) by response surface methodology. The optimal conditions for growth of soybean sprouts were ozone concentrations of 0.20~0.32 ppm, ozone treatment frequency of 3.0~4.4 times. Germination rates, hypocotyl weights and hypocotyl lengths in the soybean sprouts cultivated under the optimal conditions increased by 13.3, 10.1 and 11.9%, respectively, whereas root weights decreased by 89.0%.

  • In addition to its strong oxidizing power, the ozone has definite advantages over other commercial oxidants, namely, no undesirable by- products or residues are formed. With growing interest in the improvement of the ozone production in the industrial fields, many types of ozonizer using the electrical discharges have been proposed for the higher efficiency and the higher Performance at atmospheric Pressure. Among them, a superposition of different type discharges has been proposed. Especially, since the improvement for the low efficiency of dc discharge and narrow gap of surface discharge is required, a do and an at voltage are applied to same reaction space (or volume) to increase energy density at the same space. An investigation was focused on the superposition with a dc (streamer) corona and 3 surface discharge. This paper describes the investigation results on fundamental ozone generation characteristics by this superimposed discharge.

  • The negative wire of an electrolytic ozone generator, proposed by authors, has been contaminated by attaching the impurity particulate in tap water, which is called BUILD-UP phenomenon. The higher applied voltage and the larger wire diameter have shown the higher build-up rate, which makes the current reducing largely and concurrently the ozone production smaller. It is found that the positive electrode of the ozone generator has a strong SELF-CLEANING effect by detaching the impurity particulate from its surface, which, however, is used us a novel means of solving the build-up problem. As a result, the build-up problem can be solved effectively by applying an alternate square wave pulse voltage to the electrodes so as to get the self-cleaning ability on the both electrodes during each of the half pulse duration time.

  • In this paper, complex discharge type ozonizer with a screw type electrode has been designed and manufactured for environmental improvement using low power and high efficency ozoniazer. The complex discharge type ozonizer is equipped with three electrodes{central electrode(CE), internal electrode(IE) and external electrode(EE)}. Ozone of the complex discharge type ozonizer is generated by superposition of silent discharge and surface discharge in discharge space as a screw type CE and IE are respectively applied to AC high voltage of inverse-polarity has $180[^{\circ}]$ phase difference, EE is common electrode. In this time, when oxygen has been used as supplied gas, the maximum values of ozone concentration, ozone generation and ozone yield were obtained as 8,334[ppm], 3,249[mg/h] and 65.3[g/kwh].

  • The surface ozone concentrations changes were investigated in response to climate change over the Korean peninsula for summertime using the global-regional one way coupled Integrated Climate and Air quality Modeling System (ICAMS). The future simulations were conducted under the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) A2 and B1 scenarios. The modeling system was applied for four 10-year simulations: 1996~2005 as a present-day case, 2016~2025, 2046~2055, and 2091~2100 as future cases. The results in this study showed that the mean surface ozone concentrations increased up to 0.5~3.3 ppb under the A2, but decreased by 0.1~10.9 ppb under the B1 for the future, respectively. However, its increases were lower than an increase of the average daily maximum 8-hour (DM8H) surface ozone concentrations which was projected to increase by 2.8~6.5 ppb under the A2. The DM8H surface ozone concentrations seem to be therefore far more affected by the climate and emissions changes than mean values. The probability of exceeding 60 ppb was projected to increase by 6~19% under the A2. In the case of B1, its changes were presented with an increase of 2.9% in the 2020s but no occurrence in the 2100s due to the effect of the reduced emissions. Future projection on surface ozone concentrations was generally shown to have almost the similar trend as the emissions of $NO_x$ and NMVOC.
