Most of the sewage treatment plants in Korea are being operated by using the conventional activated sludge process. Recently, as the water criteria have been strict with regard to such main culprits of eutrophication, the existing sewage treatment plants are obliged to upgrade their treatment technology to meet the criteria. Under such circumstances, this study was aimed at analyzing the conditions of an existing sewage treatment plants in Korea, and thereupon, test its treatment performance for the actual sewage water by operating a pilot plant. When the pilot plant was operated with the NPR process at the capacity of $30m^3/day$, the average contents of BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, SS, T-N and T-P in the effluents were 7.0 mg/L, 9.7 mg/L, 5.1 mg/L, 8.0 mg/L and 0.23 mg/L, respectively, which were very stable in general. Accordingly, if the NPR process used for this pilot plant to upgrade the treatment technology for the sewage treatment plat could be adopted, the effluent water quality criteria effective beginning from 2008 would be met.

With drinking water standards becoming more rigorous and increasing demands for additional water quantities, while water resources are becoming more polluted, mathematical models became an important tool to improve water treatment processes performance in the water supply system. Water treatment processes models reflect the knowledge of the processes and they are useful tools for water treatment process optimization, design, operator training for decision making and fundamental research. Unfortunately, in the current practice of drinking-water production and distribution, water treatment processes modeling is not successfully applied. This article presents a review of some existing water treatment processes simulators and the experience of their application and indicating the main weak points of each process. Also, new approaches in the modeling of water treatment are presented and recommendations are given for the work in the future.

To increase dyeability of cotton fabric to the chestnut shell dyeing, we had several dyeing experiments with the experimental fabrics which was pre-treated by soybean, NaOH, KOH. Three kinds of experimental cotton fabrics were used and chestnut shell dyebath was made for the experiment. Munsell's color HV/C and color differences ΔE of dyeing fabrics were compared between pre-treatment and none pre-treatment dyeing fabrics. The main results were as follows ; Color differences of dyeing fabrics pre-treated with soybean, NaOH, KOH were higher than those of none pre-treated dyeing fabrics. In case of pre-treatment with soybean, the concentration of the soybean bath affected the color differences but not affected in case of pre-treatment with NaOH & KOH. Munsell's color of pre-treatment fabrics with soybean, NaOH, KOH were same with the none pre-treatment fabrics. Colorfastness of the pre-treated fabrics were same degree, but only in case of soybean pre-treated fabrics were low in fastness of washing(change) & perspiration(acidic change).

Radiation treatment with gamma-rays and electron-beams was used to remove polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), one of the main components of dyeing wastewater. PVA was effectively decomposed by radiation treatment, thus the removal was near 100 % at an initial PVA concentration of 44 mg/L. However, total organic carbon(TOC) removal was less than 5 % due to lower transformation of PVA to $CO_2$. This directly indicates the radiation treatment alone is not appropriate for the complete decomposition of PVA. In this sense, the improvement of biodegradability($BOD_5/COD$) of PVA by radiation treatment was studied. Both gamma-ray and electron-beam treatments significantly increased the biodegradability of PVA by transforming non-biodegradable PVA to biodegradable by-products. This suggests radiation treatment, especially electron-beam treatment that showed better improvement of biodegradability, can be used as a pre-treatment of biological degradation process of PVA.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical studies on the effect of herbal medicine in JIA and to seek better approach of herbal medicine to treat JIA. Methods This study researched randomized controlled trials through various databases in the world about herbal medicine treatments in JIA. Results 11 out of 414 studies were selected and analyzed. All studies were conducted in China. Most of the studies were using herbal medicines, as an adjunctive treatment to the main regimen, and the total effective rate was higher in the treatment group than in the control group. One study was comparing the herbal oriental medicine treatment to the western medicine treatment, and it showed that treatment group was more effective than control group. 5 out of 11 studies reported treatment cases from a single herbal medicine; most of them used Total glucosides of Paeonia (TGP). Clematidis Radix et Rhizoma (威靈仙) were also commonly used, as well as medicinal herbs belong to Eliminating wind-dampness medicine (祛風濕藥) and Activating blood resolving stasis medicine (活血祛瘀藥). Conclusions Based on this study, herbal medicines for JIA treatment will be effective even if used alone or in conjunction with other medicines. To apply clinically, further studies are needed.

현재 전국에는 255개의 음식물류 폐기물 자원화시설이 공공시설(95개소) 및 민간시설(160개소)에 의하여 운영되고 있으며, 이들 시설들은 97년도부터 지속적으로 설치되고 있다. 정부에서는 설치 및 운영에 관한 지침과 설치검사기준 등을 정하여 시행하고 있으나, 시설 설치 절차에 따른 세부적인 검토사항, 설계, 공정기준 등이 명확하지 않아 운영관리 체계 미흡, 처리효율 저하, 시설 하자 등이 문제점이 발생되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 이들 문제점을 최소화하기 위한 시설 운영방안을 제시하기 위해 음식물 공공자원화시설 95개소를 대상으로 설문 및 현장방문조사를 실시하였다. 조사결과 전처리시설에서는 2계열 및 호퍼덮개 미설치, 음식물 과적 및 이송 물량 과다, 주처리시설은 운전미숙으로 인한 2차 환경오염발생, 과다 음식물투입으로 시설효율 저하, 시설운영상 부적합한 운전관리 기준 등이 문제점으로 조사되었다. 악취 및 음폐수(음식물류폐기물 처리과정 중 발생 폐수) 처리시설에서는 운영미숙, 주기적인 점검 부족, 처리시설 용량 부적절 등이 문제점으로 조사되었다. 이와 같이 조사되어진 문제점을 근거로 하여 효율적인 운영방안을 제시하였으며, 향후 음식물류 폐기물 자원화시설을 설치 및 운영하는데 있어 처리효율 제고, 시행착오 및 하자를 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

26 multi-regional water treatment plants (WTPs) were investigated, to determine the characteristics of manganese (Mn) concentration and removal in Korea. Mn concentrations of raw water in most WTPs were higher than the drinking water standard (i.e., 0.05 mg/L); thus, proper removal of Mn at the WTPs is needed. Mn concentration was generally higher in lakes than rivers due to seasonal lake turnovers. The Mn concentrations of treated water at 26 WTPs in 2012 were less than 0.05 mg/L, due to strict law enforcement and water treatment processes optimization. However, before 2010, those concentrations were more than 0.05 mg/L, which could have led to an accumulation of Mn oxides in the distribution system. This could be one of the main reasons for black water occurrence. Therefore, regular monitoring of Mn concentration in the distribution system, flushing, and proper Mn removal at WTPs are needed, to supply clean and palatable tap water.

Objectives: The main purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of treatment with Hominis Placental pharmacopuncture (HPP) for 32 patients with hemifacial spasm. Methods: We treated facial spasm patients with acupuncture and HPP at Sabaek (ST2), Seung-eup (ST1), Gwallyeo (SI18), Chanjuk (BL2), Sajukgong (TE23), Hagwan (ST7), Hyeopgeo (ST6), Jichang (ST4), Wan-gol (SI4) and Yepung (TE17), and we investigated the effect by using Scott's scale. The data were analyzed by using the SPSS/10.0 for windows program with descriptive statistics, the paired t-test, and the Shapiro-Wilk normality test. Results: After treatment, the grade of the spasm's intensity based on Scott's description were decreased significantly. About 72% of the patients felt that the combination treatment had produced excellent results. Conclusion: These data suggested that HPP can be useful for treating facial spasm patients.

The tissue distribution of $TiO_2$, nanopaprticles was investigated in mice after oral administration, and skin treatment. Male mice were treated with the dose of 5 g/kg of $TiO_2$ for three consecutive days and sacrificed at 24 hours after the last administration. As results, the orally administered $TiO_2$ nanoparticels were shown to be distributed in the testis, lung, and brain at 24 hours after the last treatment. Kidney does not seem to be the main target of $TiO_2$ nanoparticle distribution. It means that $TiO_2$ nanoparticles (17 nm) are easily absorbed through entero-gastric system and may cause toxicity in brain, lung, and reproductive organs. The distribution of skin treatment showed the same pattern like oral administration.
