Removal of Pb(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Cr(Ⅲ) and Zn(Ⅱ) ions from aqueous solutions using the adsorption process on domestic loess minerals has been investigated. Variations of contact time, pH, adsorption isotherms and selectivity of coexisting ions and leachate were experimental parameters. YDI, YPT and KRT samples diluted in 1% aquous solution which was adjusted pH 10.8, 8.0 and 6.50, respectively. The result of XRD measurement, Quartz was mainly observed in all samples. In the case of KRT sample, Kaolinite, Feldspar, Chlorite consisting of clay minerals shows almost same pattern with YPT samples. Different properties showed from the YDI sample containing Iillite, remarkably.For all the metals, maximum adsorption was observed at 30min ∼ 60min. Adsorption of metal ions on loess minerals were reached an equilibrium by shaking the solution for about 30min. Removal efficiency of Pb(Ⅱ) ion for KRT, YPT and YDI were 84.7%, 92% and 100%, respectively. The Cu(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) adsorptivity on KRT showed the low in various pH solution However, those on YPT and YDI were high than 90% except for the pH 2 solution. The orders of adsorptivities for domestic loess minerals showed as following : YPT>KRT>YDI. The adsorption isotherms of Cu(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) ions on clay minerals were fitted to a Freundlich's. Freundlich constants(1/n) of KRT and YPT domestic loess minerals were 0.63, 0.97 and 0.36, 0.25, respectively.

Removal of Cu(Ⅱ), Cr(Ⅱ) and Pb(Ⅲ) ions from aqueous solutions using the adsorption process on the loesses has been investigated. Variations of contact time, pH, adsorption isotherms and selectivity of coexisting ions were experimental parameters. pH of KJ and YIK samples diluted to 1% solution, was rearly the same with each value of pH 5.58 and 5.49, and both samples showed weak acidic properties. From chemical analysis, both samples contain remarkably different amounts of SiO2, Al2O3 and Fe2O3. From XRD measurement, quartz was mainly observed in both samples. Kaolinite was also observed, also in both samples, but Feldspar was only observed in KJ sample. Adsorption of metal ions on the loesses were reached at equilibrium by shaking for about 30min. The adsorption of Cr(Ⅲ) ion was higher than that of Cu(Ⅱ) and Pb(Ⅱ) ions. The order of amount adsorbed among the investigated ions was Cr(Ⅲ)>Pb(Ⅱ)>Cu(Ⅱ). In acidic solution, the adsorptivity of loesses was increased as pH increased. The adsorption of Cr(Ⅲ) ion on the loesses were fitted to the Freundlich isotherms. Freundlich constants(l/n) of KJ and YIK loesses were 0.54 and 0.55, respectively.

This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between theoretical parameters affecting the coagulation process and the real coagulation phenomenon applied to the dye wastewater. Emphasis was placed on the effective removal of the suspend particulates. Parameters studied in this study are pH, coagulant concentration and surface potential. Optimal dosages of coagulants by the measurement of the zeta potential at lower then 25℃ are 5×10-3 M of FeCl3 and 1.4×10-6 M of Fe2(SO4)3. The results were well agreeded with the separate jar-test results. Emphasis was also placed on the relationship between water quality and the content of SS. It was found that the wastewater quality is greatly dependent on the amount of SS. At the condition with the best removal of SS, COD and DOC were reduced to 65 % and 85 %, respectively The turbidity at the above condition was reduced from 300 NTU to 0∼1 NTU. Efforts were made to clarify the behavior of the suspend solid as affecting the water quality. 12,000∼13,000 particles/l0mL in 1∼50㎛ size range particulates in the raw wastewater were reduced to 300 particle/l0mL in the same range after treatment. This research has proposed the methodology to find out the optimal condition of coagulation for small scale wastewater treatment plant or chemical coagulation process.

쇠뜨기에 다른식물의 생장을 저해하는 물질이 생성되는지를 알아보기 위하여, 수용추출액으로 몇가지 식물의 캘러스 생장, 종자발아, 유묘생장 및 항균활성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 수용 추출액의 첨가농도가 높은 배지에서 벼와 배추의 캘러스 유기 및 발달을 억제하였으며, 80℃ 추출액이 25℃ 추출액보다 유의하게 캘러스 유기 및 생장을 억제하였다. 20%추출액 첨가배지에서 공시식물의 캘러스 생장은 추출온도에 관계없이 도라지, 참깨, 배추, 벼 순으로 억제되었다. 냉동건조한 수용추출액 고형물은 저농도에서는 영향이 적었으나, 처리농도에 비례하여 벼, 참깨, 배추의 종자발아를 억제하였고, 특히 배추는 2,000μg/mι농도에서 대조구의 28.3%로 급격한 발아억제를 보였다. 유식물 생장은 500μg/mι의 저농도에서는 대조구보다 초장이 약간 촉진되는 경향을 보였으나, 처리농도가 증가함에 따라 심하게 억제되었으며, 특히 근장이 유의하게 억제되었다. 추출액 고형물의 항균활성은 500μg에서 E. carotovora에서만 약간의 억제대를 형성하였으며, X. oryzae pv. oryzae와 E. coli에 대해서 는 항균활성을 보이지 않았다.

Pb^2+ removal capacity and initial Pb^2+ removal rate were compared between non-biomaterials (granular activated carbon, powdered activated carbon, ion exchange resin, zeolite) and biomaterials (activated sludge, Aureobasidium pullulans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The Pb^2+ removal capacity of biomaterials were greater than that of non-biomaterials, generally. The Pb^2+ removal capacities of non-biomaterials and biomaterials were shown on the order of ion exchange resin > zeolite > granular activated carbon > powdered activated carbon and A. pullulans > S. cerevisiae > activated sludge, respectively. In the initial Pb^2+ removal rate, the non-biomaterials showed powdered activated carbon > granular activated carbon > zeolite > ion exchange resin and the biomaterials showed A. pullulans > activated sludge > S. cerevisiae. Comparing the Pb^2+ removal capacity and initial Pb^2+ removal rate of activated sludge with those of other non-biomaterials and biomaterials, activated sludge may have an availability on the removal of heavy metal ions by the economical and pratical aspects.

Aqueous phase adsorption of phenols by granular activated carbon was studied in a batch adsorption vessel. Adsorption isotherms of phenol(Ph), p-chlorophenol(PCP) and p-nitrophenol (PNP) from aqueous solution on granular activated carbon have been obtained. The experimental data were analyzed by the surface and pore diffusion models. Both models could be applied to predict the adsorption phenomena. However, the pore diffusion model was slightly better than the surface diffusion model in representing the experimental data for the initial concentration changes. Therefore, the pore diffusion model was used to predict the change of operating variables such as the agitation speed and particle size of adsorbent which have influence on the film resistance and intraparticle diffusion.

This work was designed to determine the effect of steaming-Pretreatment on Physicochemical and functional properties of roasted Polygonatum odoratum roots. Steaming treatments led to some reduction in the contents of water solubles, such as total solid, reducing sugar and free-amino nitrogen of the unroasted samples. Moreover, roasting processing caused decrease in reducing sugar and free-amino acid, with increase in total soluble solid and browning color of the samples, which showed the dependence of steaming treatment as well as roasting temperature. Electron-donating ability and nitrite-scavenging ratio of the samples were also highly developed along with roasting processing at 17 within 35min. Considering the physicochemical and some functional parameters of water extracts of roasted samples, roasting at above 14 for over 55min or at 17 for around 35min was recommendable for the higher quality of Polygonatum odoritum tea, which conditions were similarly adapted for both steamed and unsteamed samples.

The rates of photodegradation, reactivities, and mechanisms of photooxidation for the aqueous solution containing with halogen derivatives of aliphatic hydrocarbons have been discussed with respect to the kinds of photocatalysts, concentration of photocatalytic suspensions, strength of radiant power , time of illumination, changes of pH of substrate solution, wavelength of radiation, and pressure of oxygen gas saturated in the solution. These aqueous solutions suspended with 0.5 gL^-1 TiO_2 powder have been photodecomposed in the range of 100 and 93.8% per 1 hour if it is illuminated with wavelength (λ≥ 300nm) produced from Xe-lamp(450W). The photocatalytic abilities have been increased in the order of Fe_2O_3 < CdS < CeO_2 < Y_O2_3 < TiO_2, and rates of photodegradation for the solution have maximum values in the condition of pH 6∼8 and 3 psi-O_2 gL^-1. These rates for the photooxidation per 1 hour were dependent on the size of molecular weight and chemical bonding for organic halogen compounds and the rates of photodegradation were increased in the order of C_2H_5Br < CH_2Br_2 < C_5H_11Cl C_2H_4Cl_2 < trans-C_2H_2Cl_2 < cis-C_2H_2Cl_2 The t_1/2 and t_99% for these solutions were 5∼21 and 40∼90 minutes, respectively, and these values were coincided with initial reaction kinetics(r_0). It was found that reaction of photodegradation has the pseudo first-order kinetics controlled by the amount of h^+_VB diffused from a surface of photocatalysts.
