MTBE is a gasoline additive which is widely used in the world. Its use on the air pollution reduction has been proved very effective, but has generated serious problems of groundwater contamination. Its use will be banned gradually by US EPA and other states governments in US. In Korea, it has been used since 1987 and its consumption reaches about 700, 000 tons/year. Any problems related to the groundwater contamination has not been reported in Korea, yet due to the lack of investigation. In this presentation, I raise the MTBE problems with examples of MTBE contaminations in the US.

Air sparging system is a kind of in-situ bioremediation method in the contaminated ground water. When Air sparging, the both of water circulation and oxygen transfer happend in the same time. The hydraulic differential head is zero at the middle height of well, is negative below the height and is possitive above the height. Hydroraulic head gradient is proportioned to air superficial velocity in the well. But over 24m/min of the superficial velocity, the hydraulic head gradient increase little.

As residential buildings becomes high rise buildings, the new cladding system was needed for structure system, and unpredictable problems were found in it. The aim of this study is to analysis the present state and find improvement of indoor environment in high rise residential building, which used curtain wall system. Then, suggest to create comfortable indoor environment for high rise residential buildings in the process of design.

The history of the church is becoming 100 years in Korea and it is great growth in both quality and quantity with relatively a short history. But, recently church architecture is without respect to environmental plan because of considering only a quantitative growth. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to analyze the church of floor plans and environment elements of which is built recently or will be built and presents to the fundamental data for church architecture in Korea.

우리나라의 기후 특성상 여름철에는 온실내 기온과 지온이 과다하게 상승하여 정상적인 작물 생육을 기대하기 어렵다. 이러한 고온현상을 극복하기 위해 우리나라 시설원예 농가에서는 소극적이면서 비용이 적게 드는 흑색 차광망이나 자연환기를 주로 이용하고 있으며 냉방 효과가 적어 문제가 되고 있다. 근래 온실 냉방에 대한 중요성을 인식하고 증발냉각시스템을 도입하는 시설원예농가가 증가하고 있으나 기술적인 측면에서 아직 많은 문제점들이 남아있는 실정이다. (중략)

A male Spheropistha melanosoma Yaginuma, 1957 from Korea in the family Theridiidae Sundevall, 1833 is described with measurements and morphological photos of the diagnostic characteristics. This species was collected with a sweep net around arable lands in a mountainous mixed forest during the investigation of spider fauna on Ulleungdo Island in 2019.

The Goseong abandoned mine accident was a typical case of long-term sequela resulting from environmental disruption during the rapid economic development of Korea. While the final conclusion of epidemiologic investigation was that residents surrounding the abandoned mine were simply exposed to cadmium from the abandoned mine without any patient contracting 'itai-itai' disease, not only did residents around the abandoned mine suffer enormous psychological and economic damage, but people in neighbouring communities did as well when the entire area was stigmatized as an contaminated area. Environmental civic groups and the government worked together to solve the problem by forming a joint committee which held the right of decision in any matter to be determined. By inviting all the stakeholders to participate in the joint committee, a transparent investigation was guaranteed and the results of investigation and recommendations to solve the problem were accepted by all involved. Even though the environmental health division in Ministry of Environment has developed considerably and built up a capacity to deal with environmental accidents, the process which was adopted to solving the Goseong abandoned mine accident can be useful to settle environmental health issues with severe conflicts among stakeholders.

Turkey is a transcontinental country located partly in Asia and partly in Europe, and hosted by diverse civilizations including Hittite, Urartu, Lydia, Phrygia, Pontius, Byzantine, Seljuk's and Ottomans. At various times, these built many historic monuments representing the most significant characteristics of their civilizations. Today, these monuments contribute enormously to the esthetic beauty of environment and important to many cities of Turkey in attracting tourism. The survival of these monuments depends on the investigation of structural behavior and implementation of needed repairing and/or strengthening applications. Hence, many countries have made deeper investigations and regulations to assess their monuments' structural behavior. This paper presents the dynamic behavior investigation of a monumental masonry mosque, the "İskenderpaşa Mosque" in Trabzon (Turkey), by performing an experimental examination with non-destructive testing. The dynamic behavior investigation was carried out by determining the dynamic characteristic called as natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratios. The experimental dynamic characteristics were extracted by Operational Modal Analysis (OMA). In addition, Finite Element (FE) model of masonry mosque was constructed in ANSYS software and the numerical dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies and mode shapes were also obtained and compared to experimental ones. The paper aims at presenting the non-destructive testing procedure of a masonry mosque as well as the comparison of experimental and numerical dynamic characteristics obtained from the mosque.
