Background: Diarrheal and intestinal infectious disease caused by inadequate drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) is not only a great concern in developing countries but also a problem in low-income populations and rural areas in developed countries. In this study, we assessed the exposure to inadequate WASH in Korea and estimated the burden of disease attributable to inadequate WASH. Methods: We used observational data on water supply, drinking water, sewage treatment rate, and hand washing to assess inadequate WASH conditions in Korea, and estimated the level of exposure in the entire population. The disease burden was estimated by applying the cause of death data from death registry and the morbidity data from the national health insurance to the population attributable fraction (PAF) for the disease caused by inappropriate WASH. Results: In 2013, 1.4% of the population were exposed to inadequate drinking water, and 1.0% were living in areas where sewerage was not connected. The frequency of handwashing with soap after contact with excreta was 23.5%. The PAF due to inadequate WASH as a cluster of risk factors was 0.353 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.275-0.417), among which over 90% were attributable to hand hygiene factors that were significantly worse than those in American and European high-income countries. Conclusion: The level of hand hygiene in Korea has yet to be improved to the extent that it shows a significant difference compared to other high-income countries. Therefore, improving the current situation in Korea requires a continuous hand washing campaign and a program aimed at all people. In addition, continuous policy intervention for improvement of sewage treatment facilities in rural areas is required, and water quality control monitoring should be continuously carried out.

기포크기는 컬럼부선에서 기포체류시간, 기포표면적플럭스(Sb) 및 운송율(Cr)에 영향을 미치는 중요 변수로 인식되고 있다. 본 논문은 부선컬럼에서 기포크기의 측정방법, 가동변수들의 관계 그리고 가스분산특성을 논한다. 기포크기는 고속카메라와 이미지 분석 시스템을 이용하여 가동변수들(가스속도, 세척수속도, 기포제농도)의 조건에 따라 부선컬럼에서 직접적으로 측정되었다. 각 측정과 산정된 기포크기 값들을 비교한 관계식이 ±15~20의 오차범위 내에서 도출되었고 평균 기포크기(Sauter mean diameter)는 0.718mm로 확인되었다. 본 시스템으로부터 기포크기 및 분포를 조절할 수 있는 경험식이 가동조건들(Jg: 0.65~1.3cm/s, JW: 0.13~0.52cm/s, frother concentration: 60~200ppm) 하에서 개발되었다. 기포제농도의 증가는 표면장면과 기포크기를 감소시킨다. 임계병합농도는 표면장력이 가장 낮은 49.24mN/m일 때인 기포제농도 200ppm이라고 판단된다. 공기속도의 감소, 기포제농도 및 세척수속도의 증가에 따라 기포크기가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 가스홀드업은 가스속도와 비례관계에 있으며 고정된 가스속도 조건에서 기포제농도 및 세척수속도와 비례관계였다.

The document discusses the regeneration of Partisil/Partisphere ion-exchange columns in chromatography. It mentions that column efficiency can diminish with use due to the accumulation of sample and/or mobile phase impurities at the head of the column. This can lead to a change in back pressure, lower column efficiency, and sometimes a change in selectivity. The document outlines a procedure that may restore column performance. The document also provides everyday practices to enhance the lifetime of a column. These include using only high-purity HPLC solvents and buffers, using freshly prepared mobile phases and buffers, filtering mobile phases to remove particulates, using appropriate sample clean-up procedures, using a guard column or pre-column filter, and working within the pressure and flow rate limitations of the column. For the regeneration of Partisil/Partisphere SAX, SCX, WAX, and WCX columns, the document suggests passing 20 column volumes of various mobile phases through the column. These include a buffer wash, distilled water, an acid wash, a chelating wash, a methanol wash, and a buffer for separation. The document emphasizes that not all of these wash steps are required for every column clean-up and that some chromatographers require only a combination of certain steps.

인위적으로 phenthoate 농약성분을 부착시킨 쌀의 취반(炊飯), 즉 수세 및 가열조리시 농약잔류분의 제거율을 실험한 결과는 다음과 같다. 가정에서의 세척방법에 준하여 3회 반복 수세한 쌀에서 phenthoate는 49%가 잔존하였으므로 수세에 의해 51%가 제거되었다. 수세과정에서는 첫 번째 세척액(뜨물)에서 37.3% (여과액 7.8, 잔사 29.5%), 두 번째 세척액에서 14.3% (여과액 6.2%, 잔사 8.1), 세 번째 세척액에서 8.9% (여과액 5.8. 잔사 3.1%)가 제거되었다. 세척액 중 phenthoate 잔류분은 뜨물 여과액보다 뜨물 잔사에서 더 많이 발견되었다. 전기밥솥에서 가열조리한 쌀밥에서 phenthoate 잔존율은 41%이었으므로 수세 및 가열조리에 의해 오염된 phenthoate의 595가 제거되었다. Phenthoate 성분은 열에 안정해 취반시에도 분리되지 않는 것으로 생각된다. 결론적으로 쌀 중에 잔류하는 phenthoate 성분은 취반과정시 주로 수세과정에 의하여 제거되므로 가열조리전 수세과정을 반드시 3회 이상 거치는 것이 바람직하다. 본 연구결과는 쌀 중 phenthoate의 잔류 허용기준 설정시 감소계수(0.4)로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Recently, there is a trend to utilize natural dyes in many dyeing fields. In this work, the effects of benzyl alcohol in human hair dyeing with cochineal, a natural dye, was investigated. We investigated the K/S value and color value of dyed hair, water retention of dyed hair, protein release-ability of dyed hair, and wash fastness of dyed hair according to dyeing time and temperature. The shade of dyed hair was reddish. By adding benzyl alcohol in cochineal dyeing, the dyeing rate was increased and the dyeing equilibrium was established at early stage. The water retention of dyed hair was increased and the protein release-ability of dyed hair was decreased, meaning that the hair was less damaged during dyeing, The dyed hair showed a good wash fastness.

Vibrio septicemia,, resulting in high mortality, has been caused by Vibrio vulnificus. Ingestion of marine products or contact with sea water contaminated with Vibrio vulnificus can cause septicemia. Vibrio vulnificus has been detected world wide and west sea area of Korea, Kum river estuary in particular, showed high detection rate. Higher detection rate of Vibrio vulnificus were reported in the bottom deposit with low depth of water, low salinity, and high COD. Man with the liver disease can easily come down with Vibrio septicemia and the main source is the sliced raw fish dish. The preventive measure for this disease is to wash raw fish material thoroughly with tap water and handle in sanitary conditions. Washing with sea water is strictly prohibited . It may be necessary to forbid the small-scale businessmen from selling the sliced ray fish dish in the vicinity of seashore. Man with the liver disease of diabetes should not swim or consume the raw fish dish in the contaminated area during summer.

Nowadays, Korean consumers prefer drum-type washing machines to pulsator-type washers. Washing is a complex process involving the interaction of numerous physical and chemical influences. The main factors in the washing operations are the washing chemistry of the detergent along with the mechanical input, the wash temperature, and the time provided by the washing machine. Heavy-duty detergents that are used in drum-type washing machines contain different components from those used in vertical-axis washing machines. The bath ratio and the mechanical actions to which laundry is subjected are different between the drum-type and the vertical-axis washing machines. In this study we examined the effects of wash temperature, wash time, detergent concentration, and revolution speed on the removal of soils from artificially soiled cloths in a drum-type washing machine with heavy-duty commercial detergent. We used multiple regression analyses to find the relative importance of the factors and the optimum washing conditions. The results of these experiments showed that the washing temperature was the most important factor in the effective removal of most soils. This was followed by the washing time, the detergent concentration, and finally the revolution speed. In this study it was found that superfluous amounts of detergent did not sufficiently increase the soil removal rate. Koreans who are used to washing with cold water should increase the wash time to launder more efficiently.

This is an experimental study to raise higher efficiency of filteration than conve ntional filteration by increasing of filteration capacity for per unit area and by extending of filteration lasting time with biflow filter system which was improved from the conventional rapid sand filteration method in the process of water purification treatment. In order to raise more efficient function of filteration and giving consideration to the filter layer at upper and lower parts of the filter, the fine sand & an thracite were used as a filter medium. Although there is some difficulty than previous fine sand in procurement, it could confirm that such filter medium (fine sand & anthracite) was more effective in the field of load, lasting time and back wash, etc. In consideration of practical effect of filteration. The raw water which was used for this experimental study was not coagulated. As a result of this experiment, the filteration volume could increase more than 2 times than that of conventional method. Besides, much more advantages could be obtained for instance, the requirement of installation area was not much and installation cost could economize. On the other hand, the following results were found. The quality of filtered water became worse as time goes by and the turbidity of filtered water was more influenced by raw water turbidity than by rate of filteration. Lasting time of filteration on change of filteration rate in the filter layer reached 2 times in comparison with previous filter basin, and until loss gead reached to 1.0 meter and 1.5 meter, the following relate formulas between lasting time and rate of filteration were formed. ($T_{1.5}=181.96V^{-0.46},\;T_{1.0}=121.31V^{-0.46}$) Even though the lasting time can be shorten in case of the increase of the filteration rate, but the lasting time was prolonged more than 2 times than of previous method. With taking aim at contribution to the development of water treatment technique, we are planning to study continuously for the future study basing on the results in this papers.
