In this study we developed the analytical methods for the determination of three neurotoxin; anatoxin-a, saxitoxin and neosaxitoxin using HPLC/FLD system and this analytical methods were applied to real sample; algae culture and algae extracts. For the HPLC/FLD analysis of anatoxin-a samples were concentrated on WCX(Weak Cation Exchanger) SPE and then anatoxin-a in concentrate was derivatized with NBD-F solution. Supernatant was injected on HPLC system. For the HPLC/FLD analysis of saxitoxin and neosaxitoxin samples were separated on the column and then derivatizied by post column reactor for fluorescen detection. For post column reaction of saxitoxin we feed two kinds of reaction solution; Oxidizing Reagent of which composition was periodic acid(7mM) in 50mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 9 and acidifying reagent of which Composition was 0.5M acetic acid. The LOD value for anatoxin-a, saxitoxin and neosaxitoxin in HPLC/FLD method was 24.3 ng. $35{\mu}g/L$, $27{\mu}g/L$ respectively. We determined the anatoxin-a content of lyophilized anabaena flos-aquae and $20{\mu}g/g$ d.w. of anatoxin-a was detected. We analyzed saxitoxin and neosaxitoxin in algae culture media and extracts of lypopyllized algal cell cultured and that of Deachung reservior. Saxitoxin and neosaxitoxin in real sample were below the limit of detection. Although there are various water treatment processes for removing neurotoxins were suggested no process give simultaneous and complete removal of neurotoxins. It was cocluded that nanofiltration which reject material by size can be a process for removal of neurotoxins.

Effects of available food on growth of commercially cultured Pacific oysters, Crassostrea gigas in Goseong Bay on the south coast were studied using a numerical model. levels of total protein, carbohydrate and lipid in particulate organic matter in the water column as well as chlorophyll a concentration were determined for estimating total available food for oyster growth. Environmental parameters including water temperature, salinity and total suspended solid were also monitored for the model. Oyster growth was also monitored by means of measuring shell length and tissue wet weight increase on a monthly basis. Simulation results from the numerical model indicated that chlorophyll a is not a good representative of available food for the oysters in Goseong Bay. In contrast, available food in the water column measured by filtration of the organic particles and analyzed in terms of total lipids, carbohydrates and protein was well matched with simulated oyster growth in the Bay which is similar to observed growth. The model also suggested that oysters have relatively low retention efficiency of $50\%$ or less. This result indicates that oysters in the bay utilize only a part of food particle available in the water column, as reported in other studies.

자화수의 물리화학적인 특성을 알아보기 위하여, 전해질의 용해 성질과 결정형성 양상을 관찰하고 석고의 수화반응을 조사하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 본 결과, 자화수는 일반 증류수에 비하여 NaCl 및 KCI 각각 영향을 주어, 이들 염류들의 용해속도와 결정화에 변화를 나타내었다. 또한 자화수는 일반 증류수에 비하여 석고의 수화반응을 촉진시키는 결과가 관찰되었다. 즉, 자화수의 물분자 배열이 NaCl 및 KCI과 상호 반응하여 NaCl인 경우에는 초기 용해속도를 감소키기고 결정화를 억제시키는 효과를 보였다. 그리고 석고의 경화에서는 자화수가 석고의 결정화를 증가시켰으며, 보다 치밀한 구조의 석고 결정화를 만들었다. 이러한 결과들은 모두, 일반 증류스에 비하여 자화수가 독특한 물분자 cluster 배열을 하고 있기 때문에, 각각의 염류 또한 석고와의 수화반응에 차이를 보인다고 생각된다.

The characteristics of filter/adsorber granular activated carbon (F/A GAC) were investigated by measuring various parameters, which include surface area, pore volume, abrasion number, floater, and water-soluble ash. The correlation between parameters was also evaluated. Moreover, rapid small-scale column test (RSSCT) was conducted for adsorption characteristics. Thirteen F/A GAC were tested, and the average values of abrasion number and water-soluble ash were 88.9 and 0.15%, respectively. F/A GAC with the larger external surface area and greater mesopore volume had the lower abrasion number, which indicated that it was worn out relatively easily. Water-soluble ash of coconut-based GAC (about 2.6%) was greater than that of coal-based GAC (less than 1%), and the pH of solution was increased with GAC, which had the higher water-soluble ash. On the other hand, floater of thirteen F/A GAC was divided as two groups, which one group had relatively higher floater (2.7~3.5%) and the other group had lower floater (approximately 0.5%). The results of RSSCT indicated that coconut-based GAC (i.e. relatively higher water-soluble ash) had less adsorption capacity. Moreover, adsorption capacity of coal-based GAC with larger surface area and greater mesopore volume was superior to others.

A Computational Fluid Dynamics model is presented in this study for the simulation of the complex fluid flows with free surfaces inside the Tuned Liquid Column Dampers in horizontal motion. The characteristics of the fluid model of the TLCD in horizontal motion include the free surface of the multiphase flow and the horizontal moving frame. In this study, the time depend unsteady Standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulent model based on Navier-Stokes equations is chosen. The volume of fluid (VOF) method and sliding mesh technique are adopted to track the free surface of water inside the vertical columns of TLCD and treat the moving boundary of the walls of TLCD in horizontal motion. Several model solution parameters comprising different time steps, mesh sizes, convergence criteria and discretization schemes are examined to establish model parametric independency results. The simulation results are compared with the experimental data in the dimensionless amplitude of the water column in four different configured groups of TLCDs with four different orifice areas. The predicted natural frequencies and the head loss coefficient of TLCDs from CFD model are also compared with the experimental data. The predicted numerical results agree well with the available experimental data.

The feasibility of the employment of waste oyster shell as an adsorbent for fluoride ion has been tested by considering the effect ionic condition on the adsorption of fluoride ion on oyster shell. The adsorption capacity of oyster shell for fluoride ion was found not to be significantly influenced by the ionic strength of aqueous environment. The existence of complexing agent such as nitrilotriacetic acid in wastewater decreased the adsorbed amount of fluoride ion by forming a stable complex of $CaT^-$ and the adsorption reaction of fluoride ion on oyster shell was examined to be endothermic. The coexisting heavy metal ionic adsorbate in wastewater hindered the adsorption of fluoride ion, however, its adsorbed amount was increased as the particulate size of adsorbent was decreased. Finally, a serial adsorption column test has been conducted for a practical application of adsorption process and the breakthrough of the column adsorption was observed in 22 hours under the experimental condition.

This study investigated the applicability of manganese coated media such as manganese coated sand (MCS), manganese coated sericite (MCSe) and manganese coated starfish material calcined at $550^{\circ}C$ (MCSf) to remove Mn(II) in synthetic wastewater. Manganese coated media prepared at different pH was applied in the treatment of soluble Mn(II) in batch and column experiments at various Mn(II) concentrations. The amount of Mn coated on three different media was approximately 800~1100 mg/kg. From the stability test, negligible dissolution of Mn was observed above pH 3.0. In batch test, more than 40% of Mn(II) was removed by all sand media at various manganese concentrations. In order to see the effect of additional oxidant for the removal of Mn(II), 4 mg/L of hypochlorite was added in Mn(II) solution during column experiment. Breakthrough of Mn(II) was greatly retarded in the presence of hypochlorite in all column reactors packed with different media. Among the manganese coated media, MCSf prepared at pH 4 indicated the highest removal capacity. The removal efficiency of Mn(II) was also increased in the multi-layer system (0.5 g of MCS, MCSe, and MCSf each).

Sand filter is a key unit process for particle removal in water purification treatments. Its long-standing use is due to on-site customized retrofit. Proper selection of filter media is one of the retrofit approaches to improve filter performance. This study described a series of controlled laboratory column tests and examined the effects of media property on filtration and backwash. When sand media of 0.51 mm in effective size was replaced by sand of 0.60 mm, the filter run increased up to 5 times in the given bed depth. The change of media property required an increase of backwash rate by 0.05 m/min to satisfy the requirement of bed expansion, more than 20%. When the anthracite was changed with lower effective size and uniformity coefficient, correlation with sand in the filter bed could be satisfied within the permissible error between media and bulk characteristics. Besides, this selection resulted in a well-stratified configuration of media layers after bed expansion. The column study showed that the correlation of property between the dual media had a significant effect on the filter productivity and backwash interval.
