  • 휘발유의 첨가제인 Methyl Tertiary-Butyl Ether (MTBE)는 1970년대 이후 옥탄 향상제로 쓰이기 시작했다. 이후 자동차 연료 연소를 도와 도시 대기에 일산화탄소(CO)와 오존(O$_3$)을 줄인다는 이유로 1990년대에 그 사용이 급속도로 증가했다. 그러나 이 물질은 지하저장탱크 등으로부터 누출(leakage)로 인해 지하수를 오염시킴으로서 문제의 물질로 대두되기 시작했다. 이런 MTBE에 대해 국외에서는 그 유해성 즉, 발암가능성 및 돌연변이 유도성 연구가 많이 진행되었으며, 어느 정도 인간에 대한 유해성이 밝혀졌다. 이 물질로 오염된 실제 현장에서의 실험, 실내 실험 등에 의해서 분해 및 오염 저감 가능성, 특히 생분해(biodegradation)에 대해 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있고 여러 가지 오염 저감 기술도 연구되고 있다. 그리고 오염원으로서 대기의 영향에 대한 연구, 미국 National Ground Water Association (NGWA), the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)의 최근 활동 등 다각도에서 이 물질이 지하수나 음용수에 미치는 영향이 연구되고 있다. 실제 국내에서도 이 MTBE에 의한 지하수 오염 가능성을 배제할 수 없고, 우리 생활 가까이에 다가와 있는 문제일 수 있다. 이런 문제임에도 불구하고, 국내에서는 이 오염물질에 대한 규제와 연구가 미흡한 형편이다. 그 자체로는 청정제로 사용되지만 이제는 오염물질로서 우리가 사용하는 지하수에서 검출될 수 있는 MTBE에 대한 전반적인 이해가 필요하고 그 위해성에 대한 국내 지하수 환경 연구자들의 더 많은 노력이 요구된다. 일치하지 않았다.발전의 평가체계의 구성요소와 어업에 대한 지속적 평가체계[sustainable development reference system(SDRS)]를 수립하는데 있어서 필요한 관련 절차에 관해 특별한 의미를 부여해 줄 것으로 생각한다. 마지막으로 본 논문에서 는 SDRS가 지역어업 협력체계 구축에 있어 서 어떠한 역할을 할 것인가를 강조함으로써 결론을 내리고 있다.을 시사한다.1}$의 농도로 첨가하여 5$^{\circ}C$, 15$^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ 및 35$^{\circ}C$에서 배양한 후 미생물의 생균수를 측정한 결과 배양온도가 5$^{\circ}C$일 때는 어떤 종류의 미생물도 전혀 분리되지 않았으며, 15$^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$ 및 35$^{\circ}C$에서 배양한 경우는 모두 1gl$^{-1}$의 먹이 농도에서 가장 현저한 균체수의 증가를 보였다.여 Cash Power을 교수에게 주고 심사선정에 있어서도 실명제로 하여 심사선정하는 교수에게도 인센티브를 주거나 페널티를 물도록 하며, 대여 받은 교수는 성공실패에 관계없이 계약된 기간이 지나면 연구비를 갚는 제도이다. 성공시에는 연구자와 회사가 인센티브를 제일 많이 받게 된다. 이리하여 이 제도는 잘 수행되면 학교, 연구자, 회사, 심사선정자 모두에게 혜택을 주는 Win Win 연구비 관리제도이다. 또한 심사, 선정, 평가도 책임 있고 공정하게 유지될 수 있다. 대여 연구비 관리제도의 절차를 요약한 것이 Figure 1과 같다. 이런 점들을 볼 때 대여형 연구비관리 제도는 비즈니스형 연구비

  • Catalytic wet oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in water has been conducted using $TiO_2-supported$ cobalt oxides at $36^{\circ}C$ with a weight hourly space velocity of $7,500\;h^{-1}.\;5\%\;CoO_x/TiO_2$, prepared by using an incipient wetness technique, might be the most promising catalyst for the wet oxidation although it exhibited a transient behavior in time on-stream activity. Not only could the bare support be inactive for the wet decomposition reaction, but no TCE removal also occurred by the process of adsorption on $TiO_2$ surface. The catalytic activity was independent of all particle sizes used, thereby representing no mass transfer limitation in intraparticle diffusion. XPS spectra of both fresh and used Co surfaces gave different surface spectral features for each $CoO_x,\;Co\;2P_{3/2}$ binding energy for Co species in the fresh catalyst appeared at 781.3 eV, which is very similar to the chemical states of $CoTiO_x$ such as $CO_2TiO_4\;and\;CoTiO_3$. The used catalyst exhibited a 780.3-eV main peak with a satellite structure at 795.8 eV. Based on XPS spectra of reference Co compound, the TCE-exposed Co surfaces could be assigned to be in the form of mainly $Co_3O_4$. XRD patterns for $5\%\;CoO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst indicated that the phase structure of Co species in the catalyst even before reaction is quite comparable to the diffraction lines of external $Co_3O_4$ standard. A model structure of $CoO_x$ present predominantly on titania surfaces would be $Co_3O_4$, encapsulated in thin-film $CoTiO_x$ species consisting of $Co_2TiO_4$ and $CoTiO_3$, which may be active for the decomposition of TCE in a flow of water.

  • 동물뼈의 속성작용 정도에 따른 화학적 평가 기준을 적용하기 위하여 고고유적지에서 출토된 3종의 동물뼈와 현대 동물뼈 1종을 대상으로 FTIR-ATR과 XRD 분석을 실시하였다. FTIR-ATR 분석을 통해 결정화지수(CI)와 탄산염과 인산염의 비(C/P), 탄산염과 탄산염의 비(C/C)를 비교한 결과 동물뼈의 보존 상태에 따라 CI와 C/P 값이 차이를 보였다. XRD 분석을 통해 결정화 정도를 비교한 결과 $30^{\circ}-35^{\circ}$ 범위에서 동물뼈의 보존 상태를 구분할 수 있었다. FTIR-ATR과 XRD 분석 결과, 몽골 대형포유류뼈의 보존 상태가 가장 양호하였고 나주 소뼈, 함안 소뼈의 순서로 보존 상태가 좋지 않았다. 이는 뼈 단면의 조직학 분석 결과와도 일치한다. 이를 통해 화학적 평가 기준은 우리나라에서 출토되는 동물뼈의 보존 상태를 파악하는데 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

  • Typical Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS)-based solar cells have a buffer layer between CIGS absorber layer and transparent ZnO front electrode, which plays an important role in improving the cell performance. Among various buffer materials, chemical bath deposition (CBD)-ZnS is being steadily studied to alternative to conventional CdS and the efficiency of CBD-ZnS/CIGS solar cell shows the comparable values with that of CdS/CIGS solar cell. The intriguing thing is that reversible changes occur after exposure to illumination due to the metastable defect states in completed ZnS/CIGS solar cell, which induces an improvement of solar cell performance. Thus, it implies that the understanding of metastable defects in CBD-ZnS/CIGS solar cell is important issue. In this study, we fabricate the ITO/i-ZnO/CBD-ZnS/CIGS/Mo/SLG solar cells by controlling the NH4OH mole concentration (from 2 M to 3.5 M) of CBD-ZnS buffer layer and observe their conversion efficiency with and without light soaking for 1 hr. From the results, NH4OH mole concentration and light exposure can significantly affect the CBD-ZnS/CIGS solar cell performance. In order to investigate that which layer can contain metastable defect states to influence on solar cell performance, impedance spectroscopy and capacitance profiling technique with exposure to illumination have been applied to CBD-ZnS/CIGS solar cell. These techniques give a very useful information on the density of states within the bandgap of CIGS, free carriers density, and light-induced metastable effects. Here, we present the rearranged charge distribution after exposure to illumination and suggest the origin of the metastable defect states in CBD-ZnS/CIGS solar cell.

  • The protection of the marine environment is one of the main international legal problems in recent years. In parallel with the industrial development, a great quantity of chemical materials were used and in consequence, mass transportation of oil and other dangerous materials was required on the one hand, and discharge of industrial wasters drew also the attention on the other hand. Furthermore, oil tankers accidents, mass use of nuclear materials, sea-bed exploration and exploitation stimulated further deep human concern on the marine environment. The expansion of international concern to new and more dangerous sources of marine pollution regarded more strict and legal control on the Oil Tanker(DWT 95, 000tons, Cb=0.805) model. Calculation results are compared to the international, especially regional level. In particular, this study is concerned with the preservation of the Northeast Asian Seas surrounded by Japan, the Russian Far East, South Korea, North Korea, China and Taiwan. These adjacent countries must intensify cooperation regarding the prevention, reduction and control of the contamination of the sea. And this cooperation between the States concerned should, as much as possible, be aimed at maximizing the effectiveness of measures to prevent or abate transboundary environmental pollution. To achieve this purpose, States concerned should be imposed upon duties such as duty to assess the environmental impact, duty to inform, duty to consult and duty to assist on the basis of general principle of international law, international customary law and other various resolutions of international bodies. Depending on the nature and extent of actual or potential transboundary pollution with the use of a natural resource or the environment in general the establishment of some form of institutionalized cooperation between the States concerned may become useful or indispensable. The functions of this Organization are, inter alia, to keep the implementation of the Convention and the protocals under continuous observation, to make recommendations on regional or sub-regional rules and standards to be elaborated and on measures to be taken by the Contracting Parties, to be notified of any grave and imminent danger from pollution or threat of pollution by the Contracting Parties and to promote in close cooperation with appropriate governmental bodies additional measures to protect the marine environment of the Northeast Asian Seas, and so on. Above mentioned countries, first of all, are located within the Northeast Asian Seas geographically and, therefore, take responsibilities of preserving the clean sea against marine interferences regardless of any difference of the social, political and economic systems. They must be followed under the UNCLOS and other marine conventions. Under the present circumstances, Northeast Asian Seas will become dead seas in case that there is no instant and prompt action against pollution. Hence we have an absolute obligation to promote the development of the mandatory international environmental law, which in turn can faciliate more effective implementation of the regional cooperation by the neighbouring states within this area.

  • With angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), the surface electronic band structures of Pt3Co (111) and Pt3Ni (111) single crystals are investigated, which allow to study the bonding interaction between chemically absorbed atomic oxygen and its surfaces. The d-band electrons of subsurface TM are separated from the direct chemical bonding with atomic oxygen. That is, the TM does not contribute to direct chemical bonding with oxygen. From the density functional theory (DFT) calculations, it is identified that the main origin of improved oxygen absorption property, i.e. softening of Pt-O bonding, is due to the suppression of Pt surface-states which is generated from change of interlayer potential, i.e. charge polarization, between Pt-top and TM-subsurface. Our results point out the critical roles of subsurface TM in modifying surface electronic structures, which in turn can be utilized to tune surface chemical properties.

  • With disseminationof Distributed Control Systems(DCS), the huge amounts of process operation data could have been available and led to figure out process behaviors better on the statistical basis. Until now, the statistical modeling technology has been susally applied to process monitoring and fault diagnosis. however, it has been also thought that these process information, extracted from statistical analysis, might serve a great opportunity for process operation improvements and process improvements. This paper proposed a general methodolgy for process operation improvements including data analysis, backing up the result of analysis based on the methodology, and the mapping physical physical phenomena to the Principal Components(PC) which is the most distinguished feature in the methodology form traditional statistical analyses. The application of the proposed methodology to the Balst Furnace(BF) process has been presented for details. The BF process is one of the complicated processes, due to the highly nonlinear and correlated behaviors, and so the analysis for the process based on the mathematical modeling has been very difficult. So the statisitical analysis has come forward as a alternative way for the useful analysis. Using the proposed methodology, we could interpret the complicated process, the BF, better than any other mathematical methods and find the direction for process operation improvement. The direction of process operationimprovement, in the BF case, is to increase the fludization and the permeability, while decreasing the effect of tapping operation. These guide directions, with those physical meanings, could save fuel cost and process operator's pressure for proper actions, the better set point changes, in addition to the assistance with the better knowledge of the process. Open to set point change, the BF has a variety of steady state modes. In usual almost chemical processes are under the same situation with the BF in the point of multimode steady states. The proposed methodology focused on the application to the multimode steady state process such as the BF, consequently can be applied to any chemical processes set point changing whether operator intervened or not.

  • Objectives: The major objectives of this study are to review the U.S. Standard which affected Korean worker's Right-to-Know Standard and to propose the way of improving the reliability of MSDS and labels. Methods: To review the U.S. Standard historically, we used the Federal Register, other criteria documentation and peer-reviewed literatures. Then we analysed major issues in the historical debatement on the worker's Right-to-Know Standard. Results: Korean MSDS Standard benchmarked the U.S. Hazard Communication Standard which finally established by President Reagan in 1983. Reagan's Hazard Communication Standard was aimed to preempt States Right-to-Know Acts for chemical industry and not to improve the awareness of workers on chemical hazards. Too much protection on trade secrets and low reliability of hazard information were key problems of the U.S. Standard. Conclusions: We recommend some ways to improve Korean MSDS and Label Standard. First, A new analysis frame is needed to understand the U.S Standard. Second, hazard identification is the key element of reliable information and chemical name and CAS number should be on the label of the container. Third, trade secrets should be limited to low hazardous substances and be permitted by government before the chemical product is on the market.

  • Both MgO and $Sc_2O_3$ are shown to provide low interface state densities (in the $10^{11}{\;}eV^{-1}{\;}cm{\;}^{-2}$ range)on n-and p-GaN, making them useful for gate dielectrics for metal-oxide semiconductor(MOS) devices and also as surface passivation layers to mitigate current collapse in GaN/AlGaN high electron mobility transistors(HEMTs).Clear evidence of inversion has been demonstrated in gate-controlled MOS p-GaN diodes using both types of oxide. Charge pumping measurements on diodes undergoing a high temperature implant activation anneal show a total surface state density of $~3{\;}{\times}{\;}10^{12}{\;}cm^{-2}$. On HEMT structures, both oxides provide effective passivation of surface states and these devices show improved output power. The MgO/GaN structures are also found to be quite radiation-resistant, making them attractive for satellite and terrestrial communication systems requiring a high tolerance to high energy(40MeV) protons.

  • 대기 중 이산화탄소의 재활용 기술과 재생에너지에 의한 물 분해 기술의 접목이 최근 가능해지면서 메탄올은 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 경제성이 유리하도록 메탄올 경제를 실현하기 위해서는 고활성 메탄올 합성 촉매를 제조하여야 하며, 이를 위해서는 논리적인 접근법이 필요하다. 공침법을 통해 제조하는 Cu/ZnO 기반의 촉매는 침전, 숙성, 여과, 세척, 건조, 소성, 환원 등의 복잡한 단계로 제조되며, 100년의 역사를 가지고 있음에도 불구하고 최근에야 침전 화학과 촉매 나노구조에 대한 기초적인 이해가 이루어지고 있다. 이에 본 고에서는 단계별로 합성 변수가 침전, 소성, 환원상태 물질의 물성에 미치는 영향에 대한 최근 결과들을 리뷰하고, 화학적 기억 효과라고 부르는 이들 물성들과 최종 촉매의 활성 사이의 관련성을 논의하였다. 제조 변수별 설명은 메탄올 합성을 위한 Cu/ZnO 기반 고활성 촉매를 제조하는 방법에 초점이 맞추어져 있다. 논의된 합성 전략은 공침법을 기반으로 하는 타 금속 또는 금속 산화물 담지 촉매의 제조에 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
