Background: Sancho (Zanthoxylum schinifolium Siebold and Zucc) oil is used as a traditional medicinal material to treat severs stomach inflammation and as a diuretic. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of addition of antioxidants and blended oil the storage stability and safety of the biomaterial. Methods and Results: The effects of temperature and light on sancho oil were investigated, and the ability of antioxidants in preventing rancidity of the oil was discovered. Under fluorescent light and in darkness, the acidity of the oil was much lower than that under direct sunlight. The addition of antioxidants decreased the acid value of sancho oil; the antioxidant that showed the best results in this regard was 0.5% propolis. The acid value of canola oil, which had the lowest acid value compared with that of other oils, and blended oil, containing 5% canola oil in sancho oil, decreased by 5.5% and 15%, respectively. About one acid value decrease was observed for every 1% increase in blending with canola oil. As the concentration of canola oil increased, the viscosity and the elightness (L valu) of sancho oil increased slightly, while the blueness (b value) decreased. Conclusions: The results of this study may contribute to ensuring food safety during preservation and the industrialization of the presevation of sancho oil.

Background : D. lablab is tropical vine grown as a garden annual belonging to Leguminosae, which is used in oriental medicine for coldness like a cooling disease, diarrhea and abdominal pain etc. when it is hot weather in summer and plenty of rainy seasons. In previous study, D. lablab showed an inhibitory activity for trypsin. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) was produced by trypsin via a second protease-activated receptor. Therefore, it is considered that there are substances having antioxidant activity in D. lablab. Methods and Results : The seed of dried D. lablab was extracted hot water, and then partitioned with Et2O, EtOAc, n-butanol and aqueous. The aqueous layer was separated from silica gel and Diaion HP-20 liquid chromatography and HPLC-prep, resulting in confirmed two compounds. The two compounds was identified to C14H14N2O4 and stachyose from ESI-MS and 1H- and 13C-NMR. The two compounds was performed the intracellular ROS measurement and the expression of catalase and Cu/Zn SOD. The intracelluar ROS measurement was detected using DCF-DA in LPS-treated RAW264.7 cell. The results were shown that two compounds inhibited intracellular ROS levels to dose-dependent. And the expression of genes was detected quantitative real-time PCR in LPS-trated RAW264.7 cell. Although the two compounds were not significantly different towards the Cu/Zn SOD expression level, the expression level of catalase genes were indicated an increase rate of about 347% in C14H14N2O4 and about 242% in stachyose at 50 ㎍/㎖ compared with LPS-not treated cells. Conclusion : From the above results, both compounds significantly shown antioxidant activity in dose-dependent by examining the amount of intracellular ROS and the expression levels of SOD and catalase enzymes. As screening ROS inhibition of C14H14N2O4 and stachyose in vitro, they may be a good candidate for regulating the progression of human oxidant stress diseases and warrants further studies.

The volatile odor compounds emitted form a stuffing agent production process were quantified by ATD and GC-MS, and then odor causing compounds were identified by the method of EOI using each TLV. As the results, 72 odor compounds were detected and total concentration was turned up 87.6 ppmv level. In these compounds, aldehyde group is higher 45.49 ppmv than others group, the next is turn up the order of aliphatics, alcohols, esters, ketones. The EOA of aldehyde group show up 101,720 and 97.2%, respectively, the odor causing compounds were identified each of odor 2-Octenal 28.31%, Hexanal 24.06%, Valeraldehyde 16.07%, Butyraldehyde 9.69%, Heptanal 4.97%, Propionaldehyde 4.64%, Acetaldehyde 3.31%. The TLVs of 7 major odor compounds are lower value level of 0.001∼0.0001 ppmv, odor causing even in trace level. We need to be concerned with reduction of aldehyde compounds in the odor problem by a stuffing agent production process or ironing process of the textile containing a stuffing agent.

To develope a microbial weed control agent, HCN-producing bacteria were isolated, and their characteristics were investigated. A selected strain of WA15 was identified as Pseudomonas koreensis by morphological, cultural, biochemical and 16S rRNA gene analyses. The conditions for HCN production was investigated by a One-Variable-at-a-Time (OVT) method. The optimal HCN production conditions were tryptone 1%, glycine 0.06%, NaCl 1% , and an initial pH and temperature of 5.0 and 30℃, respectively. The major component for HCN production was glycine. Under optimal conditions, HCN production was about 3 times higher than that of the basal medium. The WA15 strain had physiological activities, such as indoleacetic acid that was associated with the elongation of plant roots and siderophore and ammonification inhibiting fungal growth, and produced hydrolytic enzymes, such as cellulase, pectinase and lipase. The strain was able to inhibit the growth of phytopathogenic fungi, such as Rhizoctonia solani, Botrytis cinerea and Fusarium oxysporum, by the synergistic action of volatile HCN and diffusible antimicrobial compounds. A microscopic observation of R. solani that was teated with the WA15 strain showed morphological abnormalities of fungal mycelia, which could explain the role of the antimicrobial metabolites that were produced by the WA15 strain. The volatile HCN produced by the WA15 strain was also found to have insecticidal activity against termites. Our results indicate that Pseudomonas koreensis WA15 can be applied as a microbial agent for weed control and also as a termite repellent. Furthermore, it could be applied as a microbial termiticidal agent to replace synthetic insecticides.

대기 오염은 피부의 산화적 손상, 염증 및 노화를 일으킬 수 있다. 레스베라트롤은 폴리페놀 화합물의 일종으로 항산화, 항염증, 멜라닌 생성 억제 작용 등 다양한 생물학적 활성이 있는 한편 열과 빛에 약한 단점이 있다. 레스베라트릴 트라이아세테이트(RTA)는 레스베라트롤에 비해 안정하고, 피부 안전성과 미백 효능이 보고된 화장품 신소재이다. 본 연구의 목적은 직경 10 μ m 미만 대기 미립자 물질(PM10)에 노출된 인간 표피 각질형성세포(HEK)의 염증 반응에 대한 레스베라트롤과 RTA의 영향을 조사하기 위한 것이다. 배양된 HEK세 포를 레스베라트롤과 RTA의 유무 조건에서 PM10에 노출시키고, 세포 생존율, 반응성 산소종(ROS)의 생성 및 염증성 사이토카인의 발현을 분석하였다. PM10을 처리하였을 때 세포 생존율이 감소하였고 종양괴사인자- α(TNF-α), 인터루킨-1β(IL-1β), 인터루킨-6(IL-6) 및 인터루킨-8(IL-8)의 발현이 증가하였다. 레 스베라트롤과 RTA는 PM10으로 유도된 세포의 사멸과 ROS 생성을 경감시켰다. PM10에 의해 증가되는 여러 염증성 사이토카인의 발현은 레스베라트롤과 RTA에 의해 경감되거나(IL-6), 증진되거나(IL-1β), 변화하지 않았다(TNF-α 및 IL-8). PM10에 의해 유도된 IL-6단백질의 발현이 레스베라트롤과 RTA에 의해 감소되 었다. 본 연구의 결과는 레스베라트롤과 RTA가 대기 미립자 물질에 노출된 피부의 세포 손상과 염증 반응을 조절하는 작용이 있음을 시사한다.

CBCT는 치료부위의 정확도 향상에 유용하지만, 반복적인 사용으로 피폭선량이 높아지는 단점이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 차폐체를 사용한 모의실험과 선량감소 효과를 데이터화하여 CBCT 시행 시 선량 저감화를 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 MCNPX를 통해 CBCT를 모사하여 광자선을 분석한 후, UF-revised 인체 모의 피폭체를 대상으로 흉복부 촬영 시 장기의 흡수선량을 계산하였다. 이 때, 차폐체(납, 안티몬, 황산바륨, 텅스텐, 비스무 스) 유무와 차폐 재질에 따른 장기선량을 평가하였다. 차폐를 하지 않고 CBCT 촬영을 하였을 경우 유방과 척추에서 선량이 높게 계산되었으며, 식도와 폐에서 선량이 낮게 계산되었다. 차폐체 재질에 따른 선량은 황산바륨, 안티몬, 비스무스, 납, 텅스텐 순으로 선량이 높게 계산되었다. 차폐체 유무에 따른 선량 감소율을 평가해 보면 흉선(73.6%), 유방(59.9%)에서 가장 차폐율이 높고, 폐(2.1%), 척추(12.6%)에서 가장 낮은 차폐율을 보였다.

To establish initial response scenarios for nuclear accidents around the Kori nuclear power plants, the potential for radionuclide diffusion was estimated using numerical experiments and statistical techniques. This study used the numerical model WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) and FLEXPART (Flexible Particle dispersion model) to calculate the three-dimensional wind field and radionuclide dispersion, respectively. The wind patterns observed at Gijang, near the plants, and at meteorological sites in Busan, were reproduced and applied to estimates of seasonally averaged wind fields. The distribution of emitted radionuclides are strongly associated with characteristics of topography and synoptic wind patterns over nuclear power plants. Since the terrain around the power plants is complex, estimates of radionuclide distribution often produce unexpected results when wind data from different sites are used in statistical calculations. It is highly probable that in the summer and autumn, radionuclides move south-west, towards the downtown metropolitan area. This study has clear limitations in that it uses the seasonal wind field rather than the daily wind field.

To investigate the distribution characteristics of grain size and organic matter of surface sediments from the Nakdong-Goryeong Mid-watershed, surface sediments were collected and analyzed. The samples were collected from six sited at four different times between May 2013 and May 2014. The were analyzed for grain size, water content, ignition loss, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon and total nitrogen. The surface sediments were mainly composed of medium sand (mean 44.7%) and coarse sand (mean 32.8%) and became coarser in May 2014. Fine sediments at the site NG-2 were poorly sorted and positively skewed, and occur in a tributary environment that is relatively low-energy compared with the other sites. The water content at the studied sites (15.3 ~ 34.9%) averaged 20.25%, and ignition loss (0.4 ~ 5.8%) and total nitrogen (274 ~ 2493 mg/kg) averaged 1.33% and, 696 mg/kg, respectively. These values indicated that the sediments were not seriously contaminated when compared with the sediment pollution evaluation standard of the National Institute of Environmental Research. The chemical oxygen demand (mean 0.17%) was at the non-polluted level compared with United States Environmental Protection Agency sediment quality standards. The total organic carbon (mean 0.18%) at all sites except site NG-2 (lowest effect level) was the no effect level of the Ontario sediment quality guidelines. The COD/IL (0.02 ~ 0.20) and C/N (0.73 ~ 6.76) were less than 1 and 10, respectively. Organic matter in the study area produced naturally from aquatic organisms. Results of principal component analysis showed that fine sediments (very fine sand and silt) were significantly affected by organic matters (ignition loss, chemical oxygen demand, total organic carbon and total nitrogen). In addition, the highest organic matters content in the study area occurred at the site with the finest sediments (NG-2).

National statistics of solid waste indicate that, although the amount of combustible wastes from household sectors is decreasing, the amount of waste that is buried in landfills increases each year. And the increasing rate of combustible wastes from industrial sectors is higher than the decreasing rate of combustible wastes from household sectors. Combustible waste, once screened, can be used as a potential energy resource contributing to resource circulation. Therefore, the objective of this study was to predict the amount of waste materials to be recovered and recycled by landfill mining and reclamation (LFMR), based on material flow analysis for four existing landfills. In this study, the landfills analyzed by material flow analysis were classified into types 1 to 4 by considering the status of the landfill and incineration situation. In order to perform material flow analysis, volume increase rate and bulk density were applied to the methodology employed in previous studies. In addition, material flow analysis software ‘STAN 2.0’ was used for the analysis. As a result of analyzing the average value of four landfills, the landfilled waste was classified as 93.9 m3 (73.7%) of combustible waste, 9.2 m3 (7.3%) of incombustible waste, and 24.3 m3 (19.1%) of soil matter. So, 73.7% can be incinerated or recovered by energy, 7.3% can be recycled as materials and reclaimed, and 19.1% can be recycled as landfill cover materials based on weight. The results of the material flow analysis carried out in this study are expected to be used to predict the amount of waste materials landfilled to be recovered by the material flow analysis during landfill mining processes.

환경오염물질 배출 사업장에서는 환경오염 물질 배출에 대한 규제에 대응하고 나아가 자체적인 환경오염 물질 배출 개선을 위한 환경 모니터링 시스템 운영이 필수적이다. 현재 환경관리공단에서는 일정 규모 이상의 사업장을 대상으로 TMS(Tele Metering System)를 설치하여 전국적으로 환경오염 배출 물질을 실시간 감시 중에 있으며, 환경오염 배출 기준치 초과 시에는 예･경보를 발생시키도록 대처하고 있다. 그러나 기존 대부분의 환경 모니터링 시스템들은 환경 배출 물질 초과 발생 시 원인 분석 기능이 없고 특정 측정 장소(굴뚝 상단의 배출구나 특정 수질 측정소 등)에서의 환경오염 물질 농도 데이터만 활용하고 있다. 특히 이력이 제대로 관리되지 않기 때문에 유사 문제 혹은 동일한 문제 발생 시에도 즉각적인 조치가 이루어지지 못한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존 환경 모니터링 시스템의 한계점을 적극 보완하여 개선된 시스템을 기획하며, IoT 센싱 기술을 기반으로 하여 실시간으로 사업장 내 이상 상황을 인지하고 원인을 분석하여 해당 조치를 작업자에게 즉각적으로 지원하는 원스톱 환경 모니터링 및 감시 진단 시스템을 개발하고자 한다.

지구온난화 문제와 유기성 폐기물의 처리문제는 해결이 시급한 환경문제이며, 바이오가스는 이러한 문제를 동시에 해결할 수 있는 장점으로 크게 주목받고 있다. 그러나 바이오가스 중에 함유된 황화수소나 암모니아는 발전설비의 부식 및 대기오염을 유발하기 때문에 전처리가 필수적이다. 기체상 오염물질의 처리를 위한 다양한 기술 중 수세정(scrubber)은 기액간의 접촉을 유도하여 액상으로 오염물질을 흡수 및 제거하는 기술로 널리 활용되고 있는 기술이다. 또한 황화수소나 암모니아는 물에 대한 용해성이 높기 때문에 수세정 공정을 활용하기 유리하다. 그러나 고농도의 황화수소나 암모니아를 효율적으로 처리하기 위해 가성소다 등의 약품을 세정액에 용해시켜 활용하는 것은 세정 후 약액의 2차 처리문제를 야기한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 수세정공정에 전기화학적으로 생성된 free chlorine을 유입시켜 흡수된 황화수소 및 암모니아를 산화함으로써 물질전달률을 높일 수 있도록 하고자 하였다. 이를 위해서는 황화수소와 암모니아의 물질전달률의 평가가 필수적이며, 본 연구에서는 10mM의 NaCl이 용해된 수용액에 1,000 ppm의 황화수소와 암모니아가 4 L/min의 유량으로 단독으로 유입될 때와 동시에 유입될 때의 물질전달계수를 비교하였다. 수용액의 pH가 8일 때 황화수소 단독 물질전달계수(KLa-H2S)는 0.1214 min-1이고, 암모니아 단독 물질전달계수(KLa-NH3)는 9.9×10-5 min-1으로 산정되었다. 그러나 황화수소와 암모니아 각 1,000 ppm이 동시에 유입되었을 때 KLa-H2S는 0.2247 min-1, KLa-NH3는 1.6×10-4 min-1으로 물질전달속도가 상승하였다. 따라서 수세정 공정에서 황화수소와 암모니아의 동시유입이 제거율의 향상에 도움이 되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, free chlorine에 의해 액상 황화수소와 암모니아가 제거된다면 추가적인 물질전달계수의 향상이 가능하다.

반도체 산업에서 발생되는 고농도 폐액은 반도체 세정액으로 초고순도의 산용액을 사용하기 때문에 폐액이라고 하여도 일반 공업용 산용액에 비해 농도가 매우 높은 편에 속한다. 특히 반도체업계를 포함한 IT산업의 급속한 발달로 인하여 불산페액 발생량이 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 규모에 따른 발생량을 추정해보면 국내 반도체 업계에서 연간 15,000ton의 불산폐액이 발생되고 LCD업계와 태양광산업에서 발생되는 불산폐액을 합산하면 국내 발생량은 약 50,000ton 정도로 예상된다. 또한 성장성과 경쟁력으로 볼 때 투자/매출 증가에 따른 폐액 발생 증가분을 예측해보면 향후 5년 내 현재 발생량의 약 2배에 이르게 될 전망이다. 발생된 불산 폐액은 일반적인 생물학적 처리가 불가능하며 현재 물리화학적 처리를 통해서 처리하고 있으나 재활용이 어렵고 2차폐기물이 발생하여 실용성이 떨어진다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 반도체 업체에서 발생하는 불산폐액을 분리막을 이용한 투과증발 공정을 통해 수분을 분리하고 불산의 농도를 3배(약 20%, w/w)이상으로 농축을 가능케 하여 폐수 처리에 대한 부담을 줄였으며, 불산폐액에 포함된 이물질을 제거하기 위해 전처리로써 Activation Carbon과 제올라이트를 이용한 흡착법, Struvite 결정화 공법, 암모니아 stripping, 이온교환법을 이용하여 불산폐수 내 포함된 이물질의 제거를 꾀하였다.

질소산화물 등의 배출규제 강화로 인한 사용처의 확대로 SCR(선택적 촉매 환원) 촉매 수요가 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따라 폐촉매 발생량도 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 폐촉매는 지정폐기물로 분류되어 처리시에 비용이 발생하여, 물리적으로 재생하여 재사용 하거나 유가금속을 회수하는 방법으로 재활용하고 있다. 그러나 재생의 횟수가 제한적이고, 유가금속 회수는 비용이 고가이며 촉매의 85~90%를 차지하는 TiO2가 폐기된다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 SCR 촉매를 경제적이며 지속적으로 사용하기 위해 피독된 SCR 촉매 내 피독물질만 화학적으로 수세 및 정제하고 유가금속/TiO2의 함량을 높이는 최적의 세정 용매를 도출하는 촉매 재활성을 위한 기초연구를 수행하였다. 비교대상 촉매인 Poisoned 촉매를 5가지 세정용매로 화학적 처리결과, acetic acid 용매가 V2O5 1.19 wt%의 높은 함량과 57.6%의 높은 피독물질 제거효율을 나타내며 다른 산 처리 용매에 비해 촉매 재생성이 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 세정 용매의 농도와 세정 시간에 따른 V2O5 함량과 피독물질 제거효율에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 각각 변수를 두어 실험을 진행하였다. 본 연구를 통해 0.1 N acetic acid로 처리한 촉매가 가장 높은 NOX전환율을 나타냈으며, 유가금속/TiO2 함량 또한 높게 나타나 본 연구 목표에 가장 적합한 세정용매로 판단되었다.

The extraction condition of all samples were extracted in every 4 hours and repeated three times with a reflux cooling system. The HPLC was reported as eleutheroside E standard equivalents using the following linear equation based on the calibration curve : equation : Y = 7.72e + 0.04X – 7.83e + 004, R2 = 0.999918. Among 15 conditions, eleutheroside E was obtained with the highest amount (10.36 ± 3.81 ㎎/g of extract) at 100% EtOH extracted and room temperature condition. In this study, the eleutheroside E content was increased with increasing of EtOH concentration. And it can be detected by heating at 100% water extraction condition. Conclusion : These results demonstrated that the experimental condition at room temperature in 100% EtOH could be used in further studies to obtain the highest content of eleutheroside E in Eleutherococcus senticosus (Rupr. & Maxim.) Maxim.

신재생 에너지의 활용 및 폐기물 순환을 통한 재활용에 주목하는 전세계적인 요구에 힘입어 바이오매스 및 생활환경 폐기물을 연료로 발전하는 SRF 발전에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히 화석연료의 고갈과 각종 폐기물의 증가로 SRF 발전에 대한 수요는 점차 증가할 것이라 예상된다. 다만, 정제된 화석연료의 사용 대신 각종 폐기물을 연로로 활용하기 때문에 이로 인해 발생하는 연소 생성물에 의해서 다양한 문제들이 발생되고 있다. 특히 보일러 시스템 내에서의 보일러 관에 각종 연소 생성물이 부착되는 파울링 현상은 연속 운전 시간 및 에너지 효율 측면에서 극복해야할 대표적 난제이다. 본 연구에서 우리는 현장에서 채취한 각종 소각재 및 파울링 현상으로 인해 발생하는 보일러 관 표면의 클링커에 대한 구성 물질 분석결과들을 통한 회귀분석과 동시에 시뮬레이션을 통해 각 구성 물질의 함량 변화에 따른 소각재 및 클링커의 녹는점 변화에 대해 분석하였다. 이를 통해 파울링 현상에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 구별하고 이에 따른 해결법을 제시하고자 한다.
