The characteristics of disinfection and organic removal were investigated with pulse UV lamp in this study. The intensity and emission wavelength of pulse UV Lamp were compared with low pressure UV lamp. The emission spectrum range of pulse UV lamp was between 200 and 400 nm while the emission spectrum of low pressure UV lamp was only single wavelength of 254nm. 3 Log inactivation rate of B. subtilis spore by pulse UV and low pressure UV irradiation was determined as $44.71mJ/cm^2$ and $57.7mJ/cm^2$, respectively. This results implied that wide range of emission spectrum is more effective compared to single wavelength emission at 254nm. 500ng/L of initial 2-MIB concentration was investigated on the removal efficiency by UV only and $UV/H_2O_2$ process. The removal efficiency of UV only process achieved approximately 80% at $8,600mJ/cm^2$ dose. 2-MIB removal rate of $UV/H_2O_2$ (5 mg/L $H_2O_2$) process was 25 times increased compared to UV only process. DOC removal efficiency for the water treatment plant effluent was examined. The removal efficiency of DOC by UV and $UV/H_2O_2$ was no more than 20%. Removal efficiency of THMFP(Trihalomethane Formation Potential), one of the chlorination disinfection by-products, is determined on the UV irradiation and $UV/H_2O_2$ process. Maximum removal efficiency of THMFP was approximately 23%. This result indicates that more stable chemical structures of NOM(Natural Organic Matter) than low molecule compounds such as 2-MIB, hydrogen peroxide and other pollutants affect low removal efficiency for UV photolysis. Consequently, pulse UV lamp is more efficient compared to low pressure lamp in terms of disinfection due to it's broad wavelength emission of UV. Additional effect of pulse UV is to take place the reactions of both direct photolysis to remove micro organics and disinfection simultaneously. It is also expected that hydrogen peroxide enable to enhance the oxidation efficiency on the pulse UV irradiation due to formation of OH radical.

렌즈에서 UV-A선의 차단효율을 평가하기 위해 320~400nm 영역에서 광 투과율을 측정하였다. 기준 CR-39와 sample을 320~400nm 영역에서 광 투과율을 적분하여 면적을 구하였으며, 이들의 면적 대비로 UV-A 차단효율 factor ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$를 설정하였다. CR-39 렌즈의 질대 차단효율 ${\alpha}$ CR=0.59 값을 얻었다. UV-A 차단효과를 평가할 렌즈의 절대차단효율 ${\alpha}$ 값이면 상대차단효율 ${\beta}$ 값은 $1.69{\alpha}$ 값을 얻었다. 절대적 및 상대적 UV 제거 지수는 각각 $a=(1-{\alpha}){\times}100%$, $b=(1-{\beta}){\times}100%$을 이용하여 얻었다.

The feasibility study of UV-disinfection system was performed for disinfection of effluent from wastewater treatment plant. Three low-pressure UV lamps of 17, 25, and 41 W were examined with various flow rates. Low-pressure UV lamps of 17W were examined with various turbidity, DOM (dissolved organic matter), and SS (suspended solid). The pilot plant was a flow-through type UV-disinfection system, and the range of exposure time varied from 5 to 40 seconds, turbidity from 0 to 40 NTU, DOM from 0 to 30 mg/L, and SS from 10 to 40 mg/L. The 41W lamp demonstrated complete disinfection showing no survival ratio in all the experimental conditions, and generally 17W and 25W lamps also showed high removal ratio over 97%. For the same UV dose (UV intensity times exposure time), high intensity-short exposure conditions showed better disinfection efficiency than low intensity-long exposure conditions. While the effects of turbidity and DOM were not apparent, the effects of SS was significant on the disinfection efficiency which indicates that SS control before UV-disinfection appears to be necessary to increase removal efficiency. Considering characteristics of effluent from existing wastewater treatment plants, cost-effectiveness, stable performance, and minimum maintenance, the flow-through type UV-disinfection system with high intensity and low-pressure lamps was thought to be a competitive disinfection system for wastewater reclamation.

Water disinfection using UV-LED(Light emitting diode) has many advantages, such as smaller footprint and power consumption as well as relatively longer lifespan than those of conventional mercury-UV lamps. Moreover, UV-LED disinfection is considered an environmentally benign process due to its mercury-free nature. In this study, disinfection using an LED module emitting 275nm UV was carried out. 384 UV-LEDs were put into a cylinder tube with a capacity of 1.7 liters. The UV intensity of the UV-LED module was controlled from 1.7 to 8.4 mW/cm². The disinfection efficiency for the model microorganism solutions(E. coli ) was monitored. As the UV intensity(I) and contact time(t) varied, inactivation of the microorganisms from 2 to 4-log-removals(i.e., 99 to 99.99% of disinfection efficiency) was achieved. Disinfection using UV-LED was followed to 1^st order reaction and the reaction rate constant, k was determined. In addition, the relationship between UV intensity(I) and contact time(t) in order to obtain 99.99% of disinfection efficiency was modeled: I^1.2·t= 460, which indicates that the product of UV intensity and contact time requiring 4-log-removals is always constant.

Main purpose of this study is a improved efficiency of Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) concerning $UV/O_3$ treatment. We investigated the efficiency of OLEDs by $UV/O_3$ treatment of ITO surface. We measured current density-voltage, luminance-voltage characteristics in different $UV/O_3$ treatment time and observed ITO surface roughness by using AFM(Atomic Force Microscope). The fundamental structure of the OLEDs was $ITO/NPB/Alq_3/LiF/Al$. We performed $UV/O_3$ treatment and found that $UV/O_3$ treatment enhanced the performance of OLEDs. We also found that change of surface roughness according to difference time a $UV/O_3$ treatment

The removal efficiency of organic compounds and the toxicity evaluation of microorganism have been studied in dye wastewater treatment using $UV/TiO_2$ and $UV/H_2O_2$ photooxidation system. Sample waters tested in this work were raw dye wastewater and dye wastewater treated in $UV/TiO_2$ and $UV/H_2O_2$ photooxidation system respectively. Total organic carbon(TOC) removal rate was 50% in $UV/TiO_2$ process and 80% in $UV/H_2O_2$ process. It has been investigated with colony counting agar method and paper disk method whether the type of treatment process has affected the microorganism growth. In the raw wastewater, more than four types of microorganisms have survived. But, little of microorganisms were alive at TOC removal rate of 50% in $UV/TiO_2$ system. In contrast to that, two types of microorganisms were found at TOC removal rate of 80% in $UV/H_2O_2$ system.

자외선에 의해 자외선 차단 효율이 상승하는 선크림에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate (OMC)는 가장 널리 쓰이는 자외선 차단제이고, OMC에 대한 광안정성 연구는 오랫동안 수행되어왔다. OMC는 자외선에 의해 trans구조가 cis구조로 변하거나, dimer를 비롯한 광반응물을 생성하여 자외선 차단효율이 떨어진다고 알려져 왔다. 하지만 본 연구에서는 OMC나 isoamyl p-methoxycinnamate(IMC)와 같이 메톡시신나메이트 구조를 공유하는 자외선 차단제들이 실제 사용조건과 유사한 조건에서 자외선에 노출 시키고 잘 설계된 실험 방법으로 in vitro SPF 수치를 측정하였을 때 오히려 자외선 차단 효율이 증가하는 것을 발견하였다. 이것은 자외선에 의해서 생성된 광반응물과 OMC간의 ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking을 통한 ${\pi}-{\pi}^*$ 전이 에너지 변화(UV activated transition) 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 이 발견을 선크림 개발에 적용하기 위해서는 함께 사용되는 에몰리언트의 극성 및 상용성을 적절히 고려해야 한다. 상용성이 좋은 극성 에몰리언트를 포함하면 자외선에 의해 OMC가 광반응물을 생성하지 않기 때문에 발견의 효과가 감소하는 것으로 보인다. 이러한 작용 기전(UV activated SPF boosting)을 바탕으로 상업용 수준의 선크림을 제조하여 평가해보았다. 그 결과 자외선(2 MED)에 노출되었을 때 in vitro SPF 수치는 50.69에서 72.33으로 42.69%로 증가하였고 in vivo SPF 평가에서는 53.7을 얻어 같은 조건의 대조군의 선크림(SPF 34.4 이하) 대비 56.10% 이상 높게 측정되었다. 따라서 OMC와 IMC가 특정 조건에서 UV sensor처럼 작용하여, 자외선에 노출 되었을 때 자외선 차단 효율을 높일 수 있는 선크림을 제조할 수 있었다.

UV-catalytic oxidation technique was applied for the treatment of bio-refractory character of the leachate, which is generally present in the form of adsorbable organic halogens (AOX). Destruction of AOX was likely to be governed by pH adjustment, quantitative measurement of oxidants, and the selection of oxidation model type. Peroxide induced degradation ($UV/H_2O_2$) facilitated the chemical oxidation of organic halides in acidic medium, however, the system showed least AOX removal efficiency than the other two systems. Increased dosage of hydrogen peroxide (from 0.5 time to 1.0 time concentration) even did not contribute to a significant increase in the removal rate of AOX. In ozone induced degradation system ($UV/O_3$), alkaline medium (pH 10) favored the removal of AOX and the removal rate was found 11% higher than the rate at pH 3. Since efficiency of the $UV/O_3$ increases with the increase of pH, therefore, more OH-radicals were available for the destruction of organic halides. UV-light with the combination of both ozone and hydrogen peroxide ($UV/H_2O_2$ 0.5 time/$O_3$ 25 mg/min) showed the highest removal rate of AOX and the removal efficiency was found 26% higher than the removal efficiency of $UV/O_3$. The system $UV/H2O_2/O_3$ got the economic preference over the other two systems since lower dose of hydrogen peroxide and relatively shorter reaction time were found enough to get the highest AOX removal rate.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of salt concentration and turbidity on the inactivation of Artemia sp. by electrolysis, UV photolysis, electrolysis+UV process to treat ballast water in the presence of brackish water or muddy water caused by rainfall. The inactivation at different salt concentrations (30 g/L and 3 g/L) and turbidity levels (0, 156, 779 NTU) was compared. A decrease in salt concentration reduced RNO (OH radical generation index) degradation and TRO (Total Residual Oxidant) production, indicating that a longer electrolysis time is required to achieve a 100% inactivation rate in electrolysis process. In the UV process, the higher turbidity results in lower UV transmittance and lower inactivation efficiency of Artemia sp. Higher the turbidity resulted in lower ultraviolet transmittance in the UV process and lower inactivation efficiency of Artemia sp. A UV exposure time of over 30 seconds was required for 100% inactivation. Factors affecting inactivation efficiency of Artemia sp. in low salt concentration are in the order: electrolysis+UV > electrolysis > UV process. In the case of electrolysis+UV process, TRO is lower than the electrolysis process, but RNO is more decomposed, indicating that the OH radical has a greater effect on the inactivation effect. In low salt concentrations and high turbidity conditions, factors affecting Artemia sp. inactivation were in the order electrolysis > electrolysis+UV > UV process. When the salt concentration is low and the turbidity is high, the electrolysis process is affected by the salt concentration and the UV process is affected by turbidity. Therefore, the synergy due to the combination of the electrolysis process and the UV process was small, and the inactivation was lower than that of the single electrolysis process only affected by the salt concentration.
