A Study on the precipitation characteristics of nickel hydroxide as well as carbonate and sulfide is carried out to determine the proper treatment condition of the wastewater induced from nickel-plating industry. The nickel concentrations in the effluent could be kept lower than 5ppm when the value of pH was maintained higher than 10. The precipitation of nickel salts by alkaline addition to the nickel containing model wastewater was conducted by using proper amount of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate and sodium sulfide. In case of the sulfide treatment, the residual nickel concentration in the clear water after precipitates removed showed the lowest value. The influences of the precipitation condition upon the particle size of the crystals precipitated were also investigated. In spite of the various precipitation conditions were adopted, the particle size of the precipitated crystals showed no great differences. The sedimentation rates of the precipitated particle bed were observed and the free sedimentation period was terminated within 20 minutes. Although the hindered sedimentation as well as bed compaction progressed subsequently, the bed heights were maintained almost the same level after two hours of sedimentation.

Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans appears to be a valuable method for assessing pulp canal configuration. The aim of this report is to describe endodontic treatment of a mandibular second premolar with aberrant pulp canal morphology detected by CBCT and confirmed by 3D modeling. An accessory canal was suspected during endodontic treatment of the mandibular left second premolar in a 21 year old woman with a chief complaint of pulsating pain. Axial cross-sectional CBCT scans revealed that the pulp canal divided into mesiobuccal, lingual, and buccal canals in the middle third and ended as four separate foramina. 3D modeling confirmed the anomalous configuration of the fused root with a deep lingual groove. Endodontic treatment of the tooth was completed in two appointments. The root canals were obturated using lateral compaction of gutta-percha and root canal sealer. The tooth remained asymptomatic and did not develop periapical pathology until 12 months postoperatively. CBCT and 3D modeling enable preoperative evaluation of aberrant root canal systems and facilitate endodontic treatment.

The present report describes the endodontic treatment of an Oehlers type II dens invaginatus in a maxillary lateral incisor with 5 root canals, an extremely rare condition. Apical periodontitis and related symptoms were noted. Cone-beam computed tomography was used to aid the diagnosis, reveal tooth morphology, and assist in canal location. The pulp chamber was carefully accessed, and the root canals were explored under magnification. All root canals were prepared with an R25 Reciproc Blue system and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) irrigation. After initial preparation, a self-adjusting file (SAF) with NaOCl and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid was used to complement the disinfection. Additionally, calcium hydroxide medication was applied. Vertical compaction was used to fill the canals with a calcium silicate-based endodontic sealer and gutta-percha. After 12 months, the patient exhibited healing of the periapical region, absence of symptoms, and normal dental function. In conclusion, this nonsurgical treatment protocol was successful in promoting the cure of apical periodontitis. Both complementary disinfection with an SAF and use of calcium hydroxide medication should be considered when choosing the best treatment approach for dens invaginatus with very complex anatomy.

(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a polyphenolic compound found in peen tea leaves, and has been known to be one of the most potent catechin species which inhibits cell growth most possibly through an apoptotic cell death. We investigated the apoptotic activity of (-)-EGCG on the human myeloid leukemia cell line, HL-60. Our results of MTT test indicated that (-)-EGCG had a significant antiproliferation effect in HL-60 cells with $IC_{50}$/ (50% inhibition concentration) value of 65 $\mu$M. Giemsa statining of HL-60 cells treated with (-)-EGCG (100 $\mu$M) for 6hrs showed a typical apoptosis-specific morphological change including shrinkage of the cytoplasm, membrane blobbing and compaction of the nuclear chromatin. The DNA fragmentation was observed from the agarose gel electrophoresis of cells treated with (-)-EGCG for 3hrs or longer, and was progressed to a greater degree as treatment time increases. Treatment of the cells with (-)-EGCG (100 $\mu$M) resulted in a rapid release of mitochondrial cytochrome c into the cytosol, and a subsequent cleavage of caspase-3 to an active form in a treatment-time dependent manner. (-)-EGCG (100 $\mu$M) also stimulated proteolytic cleavage of poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) to an active form in HL-60 cells. Tlken together, (-)-EGCG appears to induce the apoptosis in human myeloid leukemia cells via a caspase-dependent pathway. These results suggest the possible application of (-)-EGCG, the major active compound in green tea, as an antiproliferative agent for cancer prevention.

Powder compaction technology is widely used to prepare thermal battery components. This method, however, is limited by the size, thickness, and geometry of the battery components. This limitation leads to excessive cell capacity, overweight, and higher cost of the pellets, which decreases the specific capacities and delays the activation time of thermal batteries. $FeS_2$ thin-film cathodes were fabricated by tape-casting technology and analyzed by SEM and EDS in this paper. The residual organic binder of the $FeS_2$ thin-film cathodes decreased with the temperature of the heat treatment, which improved the specific capacity because of the lower resistance. Specific capacities of the $FeS_2$ thin-film cathodes decreased because of the higher residual binder and the restrictive reaction of active materials with molten salts as the thickness increased. $FeS_2$ thin-film cathodes showed much higher specific capacity (1,212.2 As/g) than pellet cathodes (860.7 As/g) at the optimal heat-treatment temperature ($230^{\circ}C$).

Long-term water treatment performance analysis was conducted for the constructed wetland treating agricultural tailwater. Studied wetland was established in 2001 and operated from June, 2002 to November, 2010. Wetland vegetation cover was shown over 90 % coverage after 2005. According to vegetation development, accumulation of sediment nutrient was observed; Organic Carbon, T-P and T-N. In addition, DO concentration and temperature was decreased in the constructed wetland output. An infiltration rate also significantly decreased due to compaction of wetland soil. A runoff coefficient was increased due to the low infiltration rate after 2005. A T-N, TSS and Chl.a removal rate was maintained constantly. However, the T-P removal rate was slightly decreased along to wetland operation because low DO concentration could increase elution of phosphorus from sediment. After constructing open water, the T-P removal rate was increased. This is because open water could accelerate the reaearation process. Consequently, over three years of vegetation development could be helpful for wetland performance. In addition, DO concentration is important factor to maintain the T-P treatment.

Recently pipe-framed greenhouses are widely constructed on domestic farm area. These greenhouses are extremely light-weighted structures and so are easily damaged under strong wind due to the lack of uplift resistance of foundation piles. This experiment was carried out by laboratory soil tank to investigate the displacement be haviors of cylindrical pile foundations according to the uplift loads. Tested soils were sampled from two different greenhouse areas. The treatment for each soil type are consisted of 3 different soil moisture conditions, 2 different soil depths, and 3 different soil compaction ratios. Each test was designed to be repeated 2 times and additional tests were carried out when needed. The results are summarized as follows : 1. When the soil moisture content are low and/or pile foundations are buried relatively shallow, ultimate uplift capacity of foundation soil was generated just after begining of uplift displacement. But under the high moisture conditions and/or deeply buried depth, ultimate up-lift capacity of foundation soil was generated before the begining of uplift displacement. 2. For the case of soil S$_1$, the ultimate uplift capacity of piles depending on moisture contents was found to be highest in optimum moisture condition and in the order of air dryed and saturated moisture contents. But for the case of soil S$_2$, the ultimate uplift capacity was found to be highest in optimum moisture condition and in the order of saturated and air dryed moisture contents. 3. Ultimate uplift capacities are varied depending on the pile foundation soil moisture conditions. Under the conditions of optimum soil moisture contents with 60cm soil depth, the ultimate uplift capacity of pile foundation in compaction ratio of 80%, 85%, and 90% for soil 51 are 76kg, 115kg, and 155kg, respectively, and for soil S$_2$are 36kg, 60kg, and 92kg, respectively. But considering that typical greenhouse uplift failure be occurred under saturnted soil moisture content which prevails during high wind storm accompanying heavy rain, pile foundation is required to be designed under the soil condition of saturated moisture content. 4. Approximated safe wind velosities estimated for soil sample S$_1$and S$_2$are 32.92m/s and 26.58m/s respectively under the optimum soil condition of 90% compaction ratio and optimum moisture content. But considering the uplift failure pattern under saturated moisture contents which are typical situations of high wind accompanying heavy rain, the safe wind velosities for soil sample S$_1$and S$_2$are not any higher than 20.33m/s and 22.69m/s respectively.

인구증가와 산업발달로 산업폐기물의 발생량은 매년 증가하고 있으며, 미분된 석탄을 사용하는 화력발전소에서는 석탄의 연소 후에 많은 양의 석탄회가 발생된다. 이 중 비산재(fly ash)는 시멘트 제조 원료 및 콘크리트 혼화재 등으로 재활용되고 있으나, 약 20%는 활용되지 못하고 매립되고 있다. 이러한 많은 양의 석탄회가 지속적으로 매립됨으로 인해 매립지의 포화문제와 토양 및 수질오염 등의 환경오염 문제로 석탄회의 올바른 처리와 재활용 방안의 모색이 필요하다. 최근 지하구조물 공사와 고성토부의 교대 뒷채움 공사 등 장소가 협소하여 다짐작업이 어려운 공사가 증가하고 있으며 특히, 복토 및 뒤채움 작업은 굴착과정 중 자연지반의 교란을 수반하기 때문에 복토에 따른 철저한 다짐관리가 구조물과 지반의 안정에 필수적이다. 그러나 배후지반이 협소하거나 적절한 다짐장비의 부족, 과다짐으로 인한 구조물의 손상 등의 문제로 인하여 다짐관리가 어려운 실정이다. 따라서, 최근에는 다짐작업이 필요하지 않으면서도 적정한 강도를 발휘할 수 있는 유동성 성토재료의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 유동성 성토재료는 주재료인 토사에 물과 시멘트 등의 고화재를 혼합하여 조성된 안정처리토로서 경화되기 전에는 높은 유동성을 지니고 있어 다짐작업이 필요하지 않으며, 경화 후에는 일반 토사에 비해 높은 강도와 지중매설물에 작용하는 토압 감소효과를 얻을 수 있기 때문에 다짐이 곤란한 장소에서의 되메우기나 충전 등에 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고함수비의 점성토와 산업폐기물인 석탄회를 활용한 유동화 처리토의 사용 가능성을 평가하기 위하여 재료의 유동 특성, 강도, 지지력 특성을 분석하고 지중매설물에 적용 시 토압감소 효과를 규명하고자 한다.
