This study was focused on removal efficiency of complex (or mixed) wastewater from agricultural and industrial plant for advanced treatments by HBR-II process, that was well known to be suitable to the treatment of livestock wastewater. The main purpose of this study was intended to evaluate the applicable feasibility of the HBR-II for revamping the present activated sludge process to the advanced one. And also, the settling study including the batch typed experimental column tests was performed to evaluate the coagulation stability of organic colloidal particles in wastewater. The mid-scale plant of HBR-II process between pilot and laboratory was used for this study. As F/M ratio remains constant in the range of 0.20~0.25 $BOD_5/Kg{\cdot}MLSS/Day$, the efficiency of biological treatment increased. It has been shown that the results of biodegradation study were, for removal efficiency(%), $BOD_5$ 98.4%, $COD_{Mn}$ 92.9%, SS 97.5%, T-N 91.3%, T-P 82.3%, respectively, which were relatively higher than other processes. From this study, HBR-II process would be well applied to the biological treatment of agricultural and industrial complex wastewater.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the retrievability of Resilon as a root canal filling material Twenty-seven human single-rooted extracted teeth were instrumented utilizing a crown down technique with Gates-Glidden burs and ProFile system. In group1 (n = 12) canals were obturated with gutta percha and AH-26 plus sealer using a continuous wave technique and backfilled. In group 2 (n = 15) Resilon was used as a filling material. Then teeth were sealed and kept in $37^{\circ}C$ and 100% humidity for 7 days. For retreatment, the samples were re-accessed and filling material was removed using Gates-Glidden burs and ProFiles. Teeth were sectioned longitudinally to compare the general cleanliness and amount of debris $({\times}\;75)$ using SEM. Chi-square test was used $({\alpha}\;=\;0.05)$ to analyze the data. The total time required for removal of filling materials was expressed as mean ${\pm}SD$ (min) and analyzed by the Student t-test $({\alpha}\;=\;0.05)$, Required time for retreatment was $3.25\;{\pm}\;0.32$ minutes for gutta percha/ AH 26 plus sealer and $3.05\;{\pm}\;0.34$ minutes for Resilon. There was no statistically significant difference between the two experimental groups. There was no significant difference between the groups in the cleanliness of the root canal wall. This study showed that Resilon was effectively removed by Gates-Glidden burs and ProFiles.

This study was designed to identify the efficiency of serum troponin-T(s-TnT) level as a diagnostic indicator for the perioperative myocardial damage with open heart surgery(OHS) and to compare with the conventional myocardial enzyme tests such as isoenzyme fraction of creatine kinase(% CK-MB) and isoenzyme ratio of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH1/LDH2 ratio). The study was performed on 30 adult patients who underwent OHS from Jan. 1996 to June 1996 at Inje University Pusan Paik Hospital, and they were divided into two groups accor- ding to aortic clamping time(ACT) duration : group I(ACT＜60 minutes, n=15); group II (ACT＞60 minutes, n=15). S-TnT, % CK-MB, and LDH1/LDH2 ratio were measured in serial blood samples from all subjected patients. The results were obtained as follows. 1. In both groups, s-TnT concentrations increased gradually during OHS and elevated significantly at CPB-10(p＜0.001). The peak level was noticed at POD 1 in group I(1.10 $\pm$0.19 ng/ml), whereas, at CPB-off in group II(1.88$\pm$0.42 ng/ml). The elevated levels remained until POD 7 in both groups. 2. %CK-MB was risen significantly with the initiation of operations(p＜0.001) and the peak levels were noticed at CPB-off in both groups(7.14$\pm$0.86% in group I, 10.69$\pm$1.27% in group II). Thereafter, these levels returned to normal values at POD 3. 3. There were no significant changes in the values of LDH1/LDH2 ratio during and after OHS compared with the control levels(p＞0.05). 4. The serial changes of s-TnT were relatively well correlated with those of changes of % CK-MB(r=0.64, p＜0.05). 5. The serial s-TnT levels were significantly higher in group II than group I from B-ACR to POD 1(p＜0.05), suggesting that duration of aortic clamping time was a major factor concerned with perioperative myocardial injury. In conclusion, measurement of s-TnT is a very useful indicator in assessing the myocardial cell damage and therefore it is expected that serial checking and evaluation of the s-TnT is very available for identification of the perioperative myocardial damage and for postoperative cares in patients with OHS.

비점오염물질은 강우시 유출되기 때문에 일 또는 계절간 배출량의 변화가 커서 예측의 정량화가 어려워 인위적 조절이 어려운 실정이다. 특히 도시유역의 경우 인구증가와 도시개발에 따른 불투수면적의 증가로 우기시에 오염물질이 빗물과 더불어 하천으로 유입되기 때문에 비점오염원에 대한 하천 수생태계 보호에 대한 노력이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초기우수와 더불어 발생하는 비점오염물질저감을 위하여 도로 집수구에 차집된 우수를 여러 개의 사층을 통과시켜 여과, 흡착 하는 방법으로 침투 배출시키는 Filter Box를 개발하였고 초기강우와 지속강우에 대한 여과실험을 통하여 배수에 따른 여과 처리 및 비점오염 처리효율을 분석하였다. Filter Box에 의한 비점오염물질 저감 효과 분석결과 BOD, T-N, T-P, 중금속 등이 약 70~90% 제거되는 것으로 나타났으며 초기우수 발생유량 7mm 기준 30분 이내에 여과 처리가 가능한 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 Filter Box 시공에 따른 하천으로 유입되는 비점 오염물질의 제거와 더불어 도심지역 지하수위 증가 등의 효과가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

A design of four-mirror optical system with reduction magnification 5X for deep UV ($\lambda$=248 nm of KrF excimer laser) submicron lithography is presented. Initially by using the paraxial quantities, the domain of solution for $t=d_1+d_2+d_3$<0 (d;: distance between the mirror $c_i$ and $c_{i+1}$ is found for the system which is free from the four off-axial Seidel first order aberrations that are coma, astigmatism, field curvature, and distortion. The solution with $d_5$=2.95 (normalized with respect to $c_i$= -1) is choosen and the aspherization is carried out to the spherical mirror surfaces ($c_3$ and $c_4$ in order to reduce the axial and residual off-axial higher order aberrations. The numerical aperture of the final system is as large as 0.4, which gives Rayleigh resolution of 0.38 $\mu\textrm{m}$.

The optimal conditions for the analysis of BPA by HPLC-MS/MS was investigated and the ultrasound degradation capacity of the BPA, with the goal to establish the proper directions for analyzing infinitesimal quantities of BPA by HPLC-MS/MS was examined. The MDL and LOQ of BPA analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS were measured 0.13 nM and 1.3 nM respectively, its sensitivity about 620 and 32 times greater than HPLC-UV (MDL: 81.1 nM, LOQ: 811 nM) and FLD (MDL: 4.6 nM, LOQ: 46 nM). In other words, the new method enables the analysis of BPA with the accuracy up to one 1,180th of the amount specified in U.S. EPA guideline for drinking water. Degradation rate of BPA by ultrasound measured over 95% under 580 kHz and 1000 kHz frequency within 30 minutes of treatment, whereas the rate showed some decrease at 28 kHz frequency. At 580 kHz of ultrasound has proven to be the most effective among others at degradation rate and $k_1$ value, so we concluded that this frequency of ultrasound creates hospitable condition for the combined process of degradation by pyrolysis and oxidization. With the addition of 0.01 mM of $CCl_4$, BPA with the initial concentration of 1 ${\mu}M$ was degraded by more than 98% within 30 minutes, the $k_1$ value measured 5 minutes and 30 minutes into the experiment both showed increases by 1.4 and 1.1 times, respectively, compared with BPA without $CCl_4$. It is also found that the main degradation mechanism of BPA by ultrasound is oxidization process by OH radical, based on the fact that the addition of 10 mM of t-BuOH decreased the rate of BPA degradation by around 60%. However, 33% of BPA degradation rate obtained with the addition of t-BuOH implies further degradation done by pyrolysis or other sorts of radical beside OH radical.

This study was conducted to improve the Nonpoint-source pollutant treatment plant efficiency and maintenance. Field and laboratory permeability test were conducted three times each before and after displacement. The removal efficiency such as TSS, BOD, CODmn, T-N, and T-P were investigated from the year of 2006 to 2011. The coefficient of permeability right after displacement was calculated to be $1.07{\times}10^{-3}(cm/s)$, coefficient of permeability after a year was calculated to be $0.88{\times}10^{-3}(cm/s)$, and after five years, it was calculated to be $0.3{\times}10^{-3}(cm/s)$ and accordingly, the amount of infiltration decreased. In case of the removal efficiency, it generally tended to decrease, but it showed the higher rates than the expected rates BOD 40%, SS 76%, T-N 39% and T-P 53%. It is concluded that displacement cycle should be at least five years and that dredging cycle should be at least three months and at most one year.
