콘크리트는 장기간 사용환경에 노출되면서 다양한 표면열화과정을 거친다. 실리케이트 기반 함침제는 콘크리트 표면에 적용되어 불용성 수화물을 형성하는데, 이 과정에서 다양한 공학적 장점을 기대할 수 있다. 본 연구는 분산형 실리케이트를 사용하여 표면의 내구성능을 강화하고 이후 광촉매를 분무함으로서 표면 함침된 콘크리트의 자기정화능력을 평가하는 것이다. 이를 위해 실리케이트 함침 콘크리트에 대하여 압축강도 뿐 아니라, 흡수성, 건조 수축, 염소이온저항성, 황산저항성, 동결융해 저항성 등과 같은 내구성 실험이 수행되었다. 또한 아세트 알데이드 및 메틸렌블루 반응 평가를 통하여 독성카스의 제거와 자기정화성능을 평가하였다. 실리케이트 함침 후 광촉매 도포를 함으로서 광촉매의 부착성을 확보할 수 있었으며, 콘크리트의 내구성 개선과 광촉매 고유의 정화성능을 유지할 수 있었다.

Background: Purple potato contain sufficient phenolic compound and flavonoid which has high antioxidant capacity. Due to poor water solubility of phenolic compounds and quick oxidation of anthocyanin, we could not get maximum health benefits from purple potato. Therefore, we developed surfactant based aqueous nano suspension to enhance the solubility of phenolic compounds and protect the oxidation of anthocyanin from purple potato. Methods and Results: Two types of surfactant were used in this experiment based on hydrophilic-lycophilic balance viz. Brij and Span. In our study, lycophilic surfactant showed highest efficiency in TP extraction compared to water and lipophilic surfactant below 10 mM concentration. On the other hand, lipophilic surfactant showed highest efficiency in extracting flavonoid content. Conclusion: It is concluded that hydrophilic surfactant was significantly increased phenolic compounds five times, and lipophilic surfactant increased flavonoid two times, and anthocyanin three times compared to control. Therefore, total antioxidant capacity was increases two times compared to control.

광산배수가 지표에 노출되거나 주변 수계로 유입됨에 따라 나노크기의 철 교질물질이 형성되며, 이러한 철 교질물질은 심미적 오염을 발생시킬 뿐만 아니라 수생태계에도 악영향을 미친다. 이를 제어하기 위해 철 나노물질의 거동특성을 파악하는 것이 매우 중요한데, 아직까지 이에 대한 연구가 미흡하다. 본 연구는 영가철과 자철석을 이용하여 배경용액의 pH와 조성, 그리고 자연유기물에 따른 철 나노물질의 거동특성을 고찰하기 위해 수행되었다. 이를 위해 동적광산란분석기를 이용하여 철 나노물질의 입자크기와 표면 제타전위를 측정하였으며, DLVO (Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey, and Overbeek) 이론에 적용하여 응집 및 분산 등의 거동특성을 비교하였다. 철 나노물질은 영전하점 pH 근처에서는 입자간의 전기적 인력으로 인한 응집이 발생되며, 그보다 pH가 낮거나 높으면 전기적 반발력에 의해 분산이 잘되는 것을 확인하였다. 배경용액 내 양이온이 음이온보다 거동특성에 더 큰 영향을 끼치는 것을 확인하였으며, 특히 1가 양이온보다 2가 양이온이 입자표면간의 전기적인 인력 및 반발력에 더 큰 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다. 수용상의 자연유기물은 철 나노물질을 코팅함으로써 표면을 음전하로 띠게 하여 분산이 잘 되게 하는 것을 확인하였다. 동일한 환경조건에서 자철석보다 영가철이 응집이 더 잘 되는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 영가철의 낮은 안정성과 빠른 반응성으로 인해 철 산화물로 변질되기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

This study was performed to determine the optimum coagulant dosing amount for effective treatment of raw water. The removal rate of turbidity and the variations of water qualities according to various dosage of coagulants such as Alum, PAC and PACS were investigated. The optimum coagulant dosing amount to make the lowest turbidity of water were 35㎎/ℓ of Alum, 30㎎/ℓ of PAC and l0㎎/ℓ of PACS in case of 5 NTU of raw water turbidity, and 30㎎/ℓ of Alum, 25㎎/ℓ of PAC and l0㎎/ℓ of PACS in case of 10 NTU of that, respectively. The removal rates of turbidity at 4 min. and 8 min. of settling time were 10 and 72% of Alum, 44 and 62% of PAC and 25 and 55% of PACS in case of 5 NTU, and 52 and 70% of Alum, 90 and 95% of PAC and 10 and 28% of PACS in case of 10 NTU, respectively. Judging from the settling capability of floc., the reaction time of floc. formation and removal efficiency of turbidity, PAC was evaluated as more effective coagulant than Alum and PACS. Also PAC was regarded as the most effective coagulant when the water supply was changed sharply and the fluctuation of the surface loading occured with wide and sharp in seettling basin. pH and alkalinity of the water were decreased with increasing coagulants dosage. But pH and alkalinity were not decreased below 5.8 which is the standard for drinking water quality, and l0㎎/ℓ which is the limit concentration of floc. breakage, respectively. Residual Al of the treated water was decreased with increasing coagulants dosage in case of 5 and 10NTU of raw water turbidity. KMnO_4 consumption of the water was decreased with increasing coagulants dosage. The reduction rate of KMnO_4 consumption at the optimum coagulants dosage were 39% of Alum, 18% of PAC and 11% of PACS in case of 5 NTU of raw water turbidity, and 42% of Alum, 27% of PAC and 36% of PACS in case of 10 NTU of that, respectively. Any relationship was not found between the removal rate of turbidity and KMnO_4 consumption. TOC of the water was a bit decreased with increasing coagulants dosage up to 30㎎/ℓ but not changed above 30㎎/ℓ of coagulants dosage. The degree of TOC reduction was increased in the order of Alum, PAC and PACS treatment. Zeta potential of the colloidal floc. at the optimum coagulants dosage was in the range of -20∼-15mV in case of 5 NTU of raw water turbidity and 0∼0.5mV in case of 10 NTU of that, respectively. Although the kinds and dosages of coagulants were different, zeta potential range were fixed under the conditions of the best coagulation efficiency.
