오존 노출이 버즘나무의 광합성 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 2년생 버즘나무 유묘에 하루에 8시간씩 100 ppb의 오존을 처리하였다. 오존 처리를 진행하는 동안, 3주마다 버즘나무의 엽내 엽록소 함량과 광합성 특성을 측정하였다. 오존에 의한 잎의 가시적 피해는 나타나지 않았으며, 또한 엽내 엽록소 함량은 대조구와 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 광합성량, 기공전도도, 수분이용효율은 오존 처리 6주 후에 대조구보다 감소하였다. 한편 탄소고정효율과 광화학 효율은 오존 처리 3주와 6주 후에서 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 위의 결과를 토대로 볼 때, 탄소고정효율은 오존 스트레스에 가장 민감한 파라미터로 나타났으며, 이것은 오존 민감성을 평가하기 위한 매우 적당한 지표로 생각되었다.

In this study, street canyons with a higher downwind building (so called, step-up street canyons) are considered for understanding characteristics of flow and reactive pollutants' dispersion as a basic step to understand the characteristics in wider urban areas. This study used a CFD_NIMR_SNU coupled to a chemistry module just including simple $NO_X-O_3$ photochemical reactions. First, flow characteristics are analyzed in step-up street canyons with four aspect ratios (0.33, 0.47, 0.6, 0.73) defined as ratios of upwind building heights to downwind building height. The CFD_NIMR_SNU reproduced very well the main features (that is, vortices in the street canyons) which appeared in the wind-tunnel experiment. Wind speed within the street canyons became weak as the aspect ratio increased, because volume of flow incoming over the upwind building decreased. For each step-up street canyon, chemistry transport model was integrated up to 3600 s with the time step of 0.5 s. The distribution patterns of $NO_X$ and $O_3$ were largely dependent on the mean flow patterns, however, $NO_X$ and $O_3$ concentrations were partly affected by photochemical reactions. $O_3$ concentration near the upwind lower region of the street canyons was much lower than background concentration, because there was much reduction in $O_3$ concentration due to NO titration there. Total amount of $NO_X$ in the street canyons increased with the aspect ratio, resulting from the decrease of mean wind intensity.

In this work, pure hierarchical ZnO structure was prepared using a simple hydrothermal method, and Ag nanoparticles doped hierarchical ZnO structure was synthesized uniformly through photochemical route. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has been synthesized by typical Hummer's method and reduced by hydrazine. Prepared Ag/ZnO nanostructures are uniformly dispersed on the surface of rGO sheets using ultrasonication process. The synthesized samples were characterized by SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD and PL spectra. The average size of prepared ZnO microspheres was around $2{\sim}3{\mu}m$ and showed highly uniform. The average size of doped-Ag nanoparticles was 50 nm and decorated into ZnO/rGO network. The $C_2H_2$ gas sensing properties of as-prepared products were investigated using resistivity-type gas sensor. Ag/ZnO-rGO based sensors exhibited good performances for $C_2H_2$ gas in comparison with the Ag/ZnO. The $C_2H_2$ sensor based on Ag/ZnO-rGO had linear response property from 3~1000 ppm of $C_2H_2$ concentration at working temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. The response values with 100 ppm $C_2H_2$ at $200^{\circ}C$ were 22% and 78% for Ag/ZnO and Ag/ZnO-rGO, respectively. In additions, the sensor still shows high sensitivity and quick response/recovery to $C_2H_2$ under high relative humidity conditions. Moreover, the device shows excellent selectivity towards to $C_2H_2$ gas at optimal working temperature of $200^{\circ}C$.

$H_4Nb_6/O_{17}$/CdS nanocomposites which intercalated CdS particles, less than 0.8nm thickness, in the interlayer of $H_4Nb_6/O_{17}$ were prepared by the successive ion exchange reactions of $H_4Nb_6/O_{17}$ with $Cd^{2+}$ and $C_3H_7NH_3_+$, followed by the reaction with $H_2S$ gas. $H_4Nb_6/O_{17}$/CdS photocatalytically reduced $NO_3$￣ to $NO_2$￣ and $NH_3$in the presence of sacrificial hole acceptor such as methanol under visible light irradiation (wavelength>400nm), although unsupported CdS showed no noticeable photocatalytic activity for $NO_3$￣ reduction. The catalytic activity of $H_4Nb_6/O_{17}$/CdS greatly enhanced with co-doping of Pt particles in the interlayer.

The trends of the criteria air pollutants' concentrations over Seoul are reviewed, relative contributions of major sources are discussd, and directions for future air quality management are suggested. It was shown that the yearly average concentrations of the criteria air pollutants except nitrogen dioxide and ozone have decreased significantly over the last three decades. Though the concentration of nitrogen dioxide has not decreased, the concentration of $NO_x$ has decreased significantly. The major reason for the reduction of the criteria air pollutants has been strict government regulations such as establishment of strict emission standards and switch to cleaner fuels. However, it is not clear the major reason (s) for the reduction of the $PM_{10}$ concentration. It is suggested that to further reduce the concentrations of secondary air pollutants such as ozone and $PM_{2.5}$, understanding the major chemical pathways for them is essential. In addition, influence from outside Seoul should be quantified and effectively controlled.

감전동 측정소에서 측정한 일반대기의 휘발성유기화합물 중 방향족화합물이 전체의 51.3%로 가장 높은 농도를 나타내었고 다음이 paraffin류(44.2%), olefin류(2.7%), alkyne류(1.8%)의 순이었으며 대연동 측정소는 paraffin류가 전체의 56.7%를 나타내어 가장 높았으며 다음이 aromatic류(35.9%), olefin류(6.1%), alkyne류(1.3%)순으로 조사되었다. POCP를 고려한 오존생성 기여도는 toluene이 30.6%로 가장 높았으며 그 다음으로 propane, m/p-xylene, ethylbenzene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene이 각각 10.2%, 9.4%, 7.4%, 5.2%로 높았다 상위 5가지 물질의 기여도가 전체의 62.8%로 다른 물질들의 기여도 보다 비교적 높은 것으로 나타났다. 한편 상위 32종의 VOCs가 전체 VOCs중 97.6%로 조사되어 나머지 14개 VOCs물질의 오존생성 기여율은 미미한 것으로 조사되었다. 고농도 오존이 발생한 시점과 $NO_2$/NO의 비의 시간 변화율이 바뀌는 시점은 대체적으로 아주 유사한 현상을 보였다. 이것은 고농도 오존과 광화학적 현상이 밀접한 관계를 보인다는 것을 간접적으로 시사한다. NO의 $NO_2$로의 전환이 오존의 고농도 현상에 중요한 역할을 하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.

Volatile organic compound (VOC) has been well-known to Korea since the end of 1990's however, it has not been well documented until now. In this study, present ambient VOC levels, VOC emission sources, and VOC control technologies were reviewed and discussed. In addition, VOC management strategies to cut down ozone concentrations were suggested based on the present VOC database. For anthropogenic VOC reduction, VOC emitted from painting processes and automobiles should be controlled in the first place in large cities such as Seoul, Daegu, and Incheon. For natural VOC management, low emission trees need to be planted in those cities. It is also very significant to keep updating present and future VOC emission inventories for efficient VOC control strategies. As a conclusion, more systematic VOC control road-map based on BACT (best available control technology) needs to be made up. and more economical and efficient VOC control techniques have to be developed under strong national support in order to lower toxic VOC and photochemical oxidant levels.

The ultraviolet photochemistry of N,N'-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine copper(II), Cu(sal)2en, was investigated with low pressure mercury lamp. Redution of Cu(Ⅱ) and formation of Cl- were shown on 254 nm irradiation both for aerated and deaerated chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent such as CH2Cl2, chloroform, and 1,2-dichloroethane. Relatively long lived $({\tau}=100{\mu}sec)$ intermediate was detected by flash photolysis. Overall photo-process can be described as the formation of Cl- and new copper complex, product(1) by chlorohydrocarbon mediation, photoinduced reduction by abstraction of halogen from solvent, followed by redox induced substitution of axial ligand with chlorine. Product(1) is possibly Cu(III) chlorosalicylaldeimido complex and cyclic -CH2CH2- moiety is absent in the structure. 247nm band of Cu(sal)2en should contain ligand to metal charge transfer character.

Among the recent research ideas to reduce hydrocarbon emissions emitted from SI engines till light-off of catalyst since cold start are those exploiting non-thermal plasma technique and photo-catalyst that draws recent attention by virtue of its successful application to practical use to clean up the atmosphere using the feature of its relative independence on temperature. Based on the previous research results obtained with model exhaust gases using an experimental emissions reduction system that utilizes the non-thermal plasma and photo-catalyst technique, further investigation was conducted on a production N/A 1.5 liter DOHC engine during cold start to warm-up. For the effects of non-thermal plasma-photocatalyst combined reactor, 10% concentration reduction was achieved with the fuel component paraffins, and the large increase in non-fuel paraffinic components and acetylene concentrations were similar to those of base condition. However the absolute value was locally a bit higher than those of base condition since the products was made from the dissociation and decomposition of highly branched paraffins by plasma-photocatalyst reactor. Olefinic components were highly decomposed by about 75%, due to these excellent decompositions of olefins which have relatively high MIR values, and the SR value was 1.87 that is 30% reduction from that of base condition, then, the photochemical reactivity was lowered.
