The biological treatment by a mixed culture GE2 immobilized on activated carbon was investigated with a phenolic resin industrial wastewater containing 41,000 mg/l of phenol and 2,800 mg/l of formaldehyde. At a dilution of 20 times with aerated tap water, influent and effluent $COD_{Mn}$ were 4,587 mg/l and 46 mg/l, that is, $COD_{Mn}$ removal efficiency was 99.0%. At this time, phenol and formaldehyde con-centration of the effluent were 1.24 and 6.80 mg/l, indicating removal efficiencies of 99.9 and 94.1%, respectively.

Chemical and morphological changes of phenol formaldehyde-based photoresist after $O_2$ radiofrequency(RF) plasma treatment depending on exposure time and source power were investigated. It was found that etch rate of photoresist sharply increased after discharge turn on and reached a limit with increase in plasma exposure time. Contact angle measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) analysis showed that the surface chemical structure become nearly constant after 15 sec of the treatment. Atomic force microprobe(AFM) measurements were shown that surface roughness was increased with plasma exposure time.

Coccal form of microorganism (staphylococcus) isolated from infected root canal was inoculated on the thioglycolate agar and paper discs (5mm in diameter) immersed with 0.1ml of 10% Formaldehyde, Thymol, Eugenol Phenol (90%) and 5% Silver nitrate were placed on the media. The thioglycolate plate was incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. Inhibition zone was measured as follow: The greatest value was 3.9mm at Formaldehyde, next followed Thymol 3.6mm, Eugenol 3.5mm and Phenol 3.4mm. The least value, 3.0mm was found at Silver nitrate.

Microporous carbons with narrow pore size distribution have been successfully synthesized by using hydrolyzed and calcined silica as templates and phenol formaldehyde (pf) resin as carbon precursor. Phenol formaldehyde-silica micro composites were prepared by solution route. Subsesequently, silica templates were removed by HF leaching. Resulting carbons were steam activated. The porous carbons were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm, SEM, FTIR analysis, iodine adsorption, thermogravimetry analysis, etc. Adsorption isotherms show that the porous carbon prepared from calcined silica as templates are microporous with 88% pores of size <2 nm porosity and are of type I isotherm, while porous carbon prepared by using hydrolyzed silica are microporous with 89% microporosity, shows hysteresis loop at high relative pressure indicating the presence of some mesoporosity in samples. The microporosity in porous carbon materials has a bearing on the nature of silica templates used for pore formation.

For the biological treatment of phenolic resin wastewater containing phenol and formaldehyde, a phenol-degrading yeast was isolated from the papermill sludge, and then identified as Candida tropicalis PW-51 according to morphological, physiological and biochemical properties. The strain was able to degrade high phenol concentrations up to 2,000mg/l within 58 hours in batch cultures. Phenol-degrading efficiency by the strain was maximum at the culture conditions of a final concentration of 9 $\times$ 10$^{6}$ cells/ml, 30$\circ$C and pH 7.0. The mean degradation rate of phenol was highest at 45.5mg/l/h in 1,000mg/l phenol from 500mg/l to 2,000mg/l phenol. Because the enzyme activity of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase increased in the course of degradation of phenol, it seems that this strain degrades phenol via the ortho-cleavage of benzene ring. The isolate C. tropicalis PW-51 could be effectively used for the biological treatment of phenolic resin wastewater.

The boron-nitrogen-containing phenol-formaldehyde resin (BNPFR)/$SiO_2$ nanocomposites (BNPFR/$SiO_2$) were synthesized in-situ, and structure of BNPFR/$SiO_2$ nanocomposites was characterized by FTIR, XRD and TEM. The loss modulus peak temperature $T_p$ of BNPFR/$SiO_2$ nanocomposites cured with different nano-$SiO_2$ content are determined by torsional braid analysis (TBA). The thermal degradation kinetics was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results show that nano-$SiO_2$ particulate with about 50 nm diameter has a more uniformly distribution in the samples. The loss modulus peak temperature $T_p$ of BNPFR/$SiO_2$ nanocomposite is $214^{\circ}C$ when nano-$SiO_2$ content is 6 wt%. The start thermal degradation temperature $T_{di}$ is higher about $30^{\circ}C$ than pure BNPFR. The residual rate (%) of nanocomposites at $800^{\circ}C$ is above 40 % when nano-$SiO_2$ content is 9 %. The thermal degradation process is multistage decomposition and following first order.

알데히드류는 실내 가정의 건축물 단열재, 실내가구의 칠, 접착제, 하드보드, 악취 제거제, 제지 등 생활 용품에서 공업용품에 이르기까지 광범위하게 사용되며, 그 사용량도 증가되고 있다. 특히, formaldehyde는 urea-와 Phenol-formaldehyde 수지를 합성하는 주요 화합물질이다. 알데히드류 중 포름알데히드는 1ppm 또는 그 이하의 농도로 노출될 경우, 눈, 코, 목의 자극을 유발하고, 농도에 따라서 피부 알레르기, 두통, 메스꺼움, 흥부 압박감, 기관지염, 폐염 및 폐부종을 야기하며, 동물 실험결과, 미국 환경보호처에서는 인체 발암 가능성 물질로 분류하고 있다(US EPA, 1999).

현재 건축단열재, 흡음재, 바닥재로 사용되는 panel 성형, 제작하기 위해 다종의 유기고분자 matrix가 사용되고 있으며 polyurethane, vinyl acetate, urea-formaldehyde resin 또는 melamine-formaldehyde, phenol-form aldehyde resin 등을 사용하고 있으나 이러한 고분자 matrix를 사용한 건축용 panel의 경우 화재시 유독 gas와 더불어 급격한 화재전파의 매개체로 사용될 수 있어 난연제 첨가로 이러한 현상을 억제하고 있다.(중략)
