The sapwood portion of fast-growing teak is mostly ignored due to its inferior quality. One of the possibilities for utilizing sapwood waste is to convert it into activated carbon that has good adsorption capabilities. The raw materials used in this research were sapwood of 14-year-old fast-growing teak sapwood (FTS) waste, which was taken from three trees from community forests in Wonosari, Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta Special Region. FTS waste was taken from the bottom of the tree up to a height of 1.3 m. The activation process is conducted with an activation temperature of 750℃, 850℃, and 950℃. The heating duration consists of three variations: 30 min, 60 min, and 90 min. The quality evaluation parameters of activated carbon include yield, moisture content, volatile matter content, ash content, fixed carbon content, adsorption capacity of benzene, adsorption capacity of methylene blue, and adsorption capacity of iodine. The results showed that the activated carbon produced had the following quality parameters: yield of 75.61%; moisture content of 1.27%; volatile matter content of 9.98%; ash content of 5.43%; fixed carbon content of 84.58%; benzene absorption capacity of 8.58%; methylene blue absorption capacity of 87.73 mg/g; and iodine adsorption capacity of 948.19 mg/g. It can be concluded that activated carbon from FTS waste has good iodine adsorption, which fulfilled the SNI 06-3730-1995 quality standard. Due to the iodine adsorption ability of FTS waste activated carbon, the conversion of FTS waste to activated carbon is categorized as a potential method to increase the value of this material.

야자계 활성탄을 사용하여 수용액으로부터 brilliant blue FCF 염료의 흡착에 대해 조사하였다. 회분식 실험은 흡착제의 양, 초기농도와 접촉시간과 온도를 흡착변수로 사용하여 수행하였다. 흡착평형자료는 Langmuir와 Freundlich 식을 사용하여 해석하였으며, Freundlich 식이 더 좋은 일치도를 나타냈다. 평가된 Freundlich 상수(1/n=0.129~0.212)로부터 활성탄에 의한 brilliant blue FCF의 흡착조작이 적절한 처리방법이 될 수 있음을 알았다. 흡착속도실험자료를 유사일차반응속도식과 유사이차반응속도식에 적용해 본 결과, 흡착동력학은 유사이차반응속도식에 잘 맞는 것으로 나타났다. 음수값의 Gibbs 자유에너지(-4.81~-10.33 kJ/mol)와 양수값의 엔탈피(+78.59 kJ/mol)는 흡착이 자발적이고 흡열공정으로 진행된다는 것을 나타낸다.

Electrochemical characteristics of nitrite ion were investigated at a poly(methylene blue)-modified glassy carbon electrode by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The poly(methylene blue)-modified glassy carbon electrode exhibited enhanced anodic signals for nitrite. The effects of key parameters on the detection of nitrite were evaluated at the modified electrode, such as pH, accumulation time, and scan rate. Under optimum condition, the chemically modified electrode can detect nitrite in the concentration range $2.0{\times}10^{-6}$ to $5.0{\times}10^{-4}$ M with the detection limit of $2.0{\times}10^{-6}$ M and a correlation coefficient of 0.999. The detection of nitrite using the chemically modified electrode was not affected by common ions such as $Na^+$, $K^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Cl^-$, $HPO_4^{2-}$ and $H_2PO_4^- $. The modified electrode showed good stability and reproducibility. The practical application of the present method was successfully applied to the determination of nitrite ion in cabbage samples.

본 연구에서는 활성탄을 사용하여 coomassi brilliant blue G (CBBG)염료를 흡착하는데 필요한 흡착평형과 흡착동역학 및 열역학 파라미터들에 대하여 조사하였다. 등온흡착평형관계로 부터 Langmuir 식과 Freundlich 식의 분리계수를 평가하여 활성탄에 의한 CBBG의 흡착조작이 유효한 처리방법이 될 수 있음을 알았고, Dubinin-Radushkevich 식으로부터 흡착공정이 물리흡착공정임을 알았다. 흡착공정에 대한 동력학적 해석을 통해 흡착반응은 유사이차반응속도식이 유사일차반응속 도식에 비해 일치도가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 입자내확산이 흡착공정의 지배단계임을 알았다. 유사이차반응속도식을 적용한 열역학적 해석을 통해 평가된 엔탈피 변화값(406.12 kJ/mol)으로부터 흡착공정이 흡열반응으로 진행됨을 알았다. 또한 엔트로피 변화값(1.66 kJ/mol K)은 흡착공정의 무질서도가 증가한다는 것을 나타내었다. 온도가 올라갈수록 자유에너지 값이 감소하는 경향을 보인 것은 활성탄에 대한 CBBG의 흡착반응은 온도가 올라갈수록 자발성이 높아지는 것으로 판단되었다.

Four activated carbons were produced by two-stage process as followings; semi-carbonization of indigenous biomass waste, i.e. cotton stalks, followed by chemical activation with KOH under various activation temperatures and chemical ratios of KOH to semi-carbonized cotton stalks (CCS). The surface area, total pore volume and average pore diameter were evaluated by $N_2$-adsorption at 77 K. The surface morphology and oxygen functional groups were determined by SEM and FTIR, respectively. Batch equilibrium and kinetic studies were carried out by using a basic dye, methylene blue as a probe molecule to evaluate the adsorption capacity and mechanism over the produced carbons. The obtained activated carbon (CCS-1K800) exhibited highly microporous structure with high surface area of 950 $m^2/g$, total pore volume of 0.423 $cm^3/g$ and average pore diameter of 17.8 ${\AA}$. The isotherm data fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm with monolayer adsorption capacity of 222 mg/g for CCS-1K800. The kinetic data obtained at different concentrations were analyzed using a pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion equations. The pseudo-second-order model fitted better for kinetic removal of MB dye. The results indicate that such laboratory carbons could be employed as low cost alternative to commercial carbons in wastewater treatment.

촉매오존화에 의한 메틸렌 블루(MB) 제거특성과 그에 미치는 운전변수의 영향을 관찰하기 위해 회분식 실험을 수행하였다. 촉매오존화에서 오존 분해반응의 촉매로 작용하는 활성탄의 투입량이 증가함에 따라 MB 및 TOC 제거속도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 반응기로 공급되는 가스상 오존의 농도가 증가함에 따라 물질전달이 크게 일어나므로 MB 제거속도를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 촉매오존화에서 오존의 분해에 의해 생성된 $OH{\cdot}$에 의해 MB의 분해가 일어나므로 오존화에 비해 MB의 제거속도가 빠를 뿐 아니라 훨씬 높은 TOC 제거율을 기대할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 촉매오존화에서 오염물질 처리는 pH의 변화에 큰 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타나 현장 적용시에 있을 수 있는 유입수의 변동에 대한 적용성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 촉매오존화가 섬유산업에서 발생하는 난분해성 폐수를 처리하기 위한 효과적인 대안이 될 수 있음을 보여준다.

A single step fabrication process of carbon nanotube/Prussian Blue (CNT/PB) paste electrodes based on screen printing technology has been studied as an amperometric sensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide and free chlorine. Compared to the classical carbon paste (CP) electrode, the CNT paste electrode greatly enhanced the response in the presence of hydrogen peroxide due to the electrocatalytic activity of the CNT. Based on the CNT/binder paste, PB was also incorporated into a network of CNT paste and characterized. The best electroanalytical properties of PB-mixed sensors to hydrogen peroxide were obtained with PB ratio of 10 wt % composition, which showed fast response time ($t_{90}{\leq}5$ s; 0.2 - 0.3 mM), low detection limit of 1.0 ${\mu}M$, good linear response in the range from $5.0{\times}10^{-5}$ - $1.0{\times}10^{-3}$ mol $L^{-1}$ ($r^2$ = 0.9998), and high sensitivity of -8.21 ${\mu}AmM^{-1}$. In order to confirm the enhanced electrochemical properties of CNT/PB electrode, the sensor was further applied for the determination of chlorine in water, which exhibited a linear response behavior in the range of 50 - 2000 ppb for chlorine with a slope of 1.10 ${\mu}Appm^{-1}$ ($r^2$ = 9971).

Bacillus subtilis B22, a chemotrophic and aerobic bacterial strain was isolated from homemade kimchi, identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. B22 was primarily screened by biochemical, carbon source utilization tests. B22 was used to produce pectinase and ${\beta}$-glucosidase by submerged fermentation under different light sources. B22 was incubated in pectin media and basal media (pH 7.0) under blue, green, red and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs), fluorescent white light, and in darkness at $37^{\circ}C$, orbital shaker 150 rpm for 24 hours. Fermentation under blue LEDs maximized pectinase production ($71.59{\pm}1.6U/mL$ at 24 h) and ${\beta}$-glucosidase production ($56.31{\pm}1.6U/mL$ at 24 h). Further, the production of enzyme increased to pectinase ($156{\pm}1.28U/mL$) and ${\beta}$-glucosidase ($172{\pm}1.28U/mL$) with 3% glucose as a carbon source. Activity and stability of the partially purified enzymes were higher at pH 6.0 to 8.0 and $25-55^{\circ}C$. The effect on the metal ions $Na^+$ and $K^+$ and (moderateactivity) $Mn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ increased activity, while $Hg^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Fe^{2+}$, and $Fe^{2+}$ inhibited activity. EDTA, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and 5,5-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoicacid) reduced activity, while tetrafluoroethylene and 1,10-phenanthroline inhibited activity. The amylase was highly tolerant of the surfactants TritonX-100, Tween-20, Tween-80 and compatible with organic solvents methanol, ethanol, isoamylalcohol, isopropanol, t-butylalcohol and the oxidizing agents hydrogen peroxide, sodium perborate and sodium hypochlorite, although potassium iodide and ammonium persulfate reduced activity. These properties suggest utility of pectinase and ${\beta}$-glucosidase produced by B. subtilis B22 under blue LED-mediated fermentation for industrial applications.
