본 연구는 전기투석과 용매추출을 융합한 희유금속 회수 공정에서 분리막과 음이온교환막의 개질을 통해 유기상 과 수상에 대한 분리막의 낮은 젖음성 및 AEM을 통한 수소이온 투과로 인한 금속이온의 회수 효율 감소를 개선하였다. 구체 적으로, 분리막 표면 중 한면은 polydopamine (PDA) 통한 친수성 개질, 다른 면은 SiO2 또는 graphene oxide를 통한 친유성 개질을 함으로써 분리막의 젖음성을 개선하였다. 또한, 음이온교환막의 표면을 polyethyleneimine, PDA, poly(vinylidene fluoride) 등을 이용, 개질해 수분 흡수(Water uptake) 감소 및 기공구조 변화를 통해 수소이온 수송을 억제해 수소이온 투과를 억 제할 수 있다. 개질된 막 표면 형상과 화학적 특성 및 조성은 주사전자현미경과 푸리에변환 적외선 분광법을 통해 확인되었 고, 이를 구리 이온 회수 시스템에 적용해 향상된 추출 및 탈거 효율과 수소이온 수송 억제능을 확인하였다.

역세척이 가능한 평막형 분리막 모듈을 분리막 생물반응기(MBR)에 침지시켜 운전 시간에 따른 흡입 압력을 측 정하였다. MLSS 8,000 mg/L 활성 슬러지 수용액에 공칭 세공크기가 0.2 μm, 유효막면적이 128 cm2인 분리막 모듈을 침지 시킨 후 투과 유속, quorum qeunching (QQ) 비드를 변화하며 흡입 압력을 확인하였다. Vacant bead (VB), BH4와 DKY-1의 실험군에서 FR과 SFCO 운전방식에 따른 효과를 비교, 분석하였다. 투과 유속 40 L/m2⋅h 이고 DKY-1 QQ 비드를 주입할 경우 흡입 압력 감소는 가장 효과적이었다. 또한 역세척에 의한 흡입 압력 감소 효과는 DKY-1 QQ 비드의 경우보다 2배 이 상 높게 나타났다.

Climate change due to global warming causes a rise in atmospheric air temperature to rise and extreme shift in precipitation patterns. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is widely known as one of the major cause of global warming and accounts for about 72% of total greenhouse gas emissions. Agriculture is more vulnerable to climate change than other industries. Many studies have been conducted to investigate how agroecosystems, both natural and controlled, will respond to the rising level of CO2. Studies on the responses of crops and agricultural environments to climate change are crucial in predicting changes in agro-ecosystems. Research facilities for various types of CO2 treatment have been developed. The representative research facilities are SAR (Soil-Plant-Atmosphere-Research), OTC (Open Top Chamber), FACE (Free Air CO2 Enrichment System), and TGC & CTGC (Temperature Gradient Chamber & CO2-Temperature Gradient Chamber). Therefore, this study reviewed research data and their application in agriculture.

This study was conducted to evaluate quality and anthocyanin content of ‘Tarocco’ orange fruit in order to support early harvest. Harvest times were set at 280 days after anthesis (DAA), 300 DAA, and 320 DAA (conventional harvest). The fruits were classified as those having an intense reddish color or a yellowish orange color in the rind. The fruits were stored during 45 days at 8oC, for low temperature storage, or 18oC, for room temperature storage in winter. The changes in the fruit quality were measured at 15-days interval. The reddish rind fruit had slightly higher sugar content than the orange fruits with yellowish rind, but had similar acidity. A sugar content of 13.0 oBrix or more was recorded for fruits harvested 280 DAA with 45 days of low-temperature storage. A similar finding was recorded after 15 days of low temperature storage for the fruits harvested 300 DAA with 30 days for the conventional harvest. The anthocyanin content was higher for fruits with later harvest time (37.8 mg·L-1) and longer storage period in both low and winter room temperatures (25.2-53 mg·L-1 and 10.3-51.9 mg·L-1, respectively). For all harvest periods, the peel and juice color intensity increased after 15 days of low temperature storage and remained constant regardless of the storage temperature. The result indicated that the fruit quality and anthocyanin content of fruits harvested 300 DAA was better than fruits harvested 320 DAA (conventional harvest), stored 15 days at 8oC or 30 days at 18oC after harvesting 300 DAA.

This article examines the variations found in the use of ‘eung’ and ‘eo’ in TV dramas and their scripts. Five series of TV drama televised during the 2010s were used as the data for this study, and 3,202 tokens of {eung} and {eo} were collected from the data. Statistical analyses were conducted using Goldvarb X and LVS (Language Variation Suite). Nine variants of {eung} and six variants of {eo} were observed in the data. Regression analyses showed that ‘discourse function’ of {eung} and {eo} was the primary constraint influencing the variation examined. Age was analyzed as another statistically significant factor: Older people used {eung} variants more often than younger people. This result may be taken to indicate either age grading or linguistic change in progress; further research based on careful methodology is in order for its accurate interpretation.

To provide information needed for managing fish resources and protecting the ecosystem of Cheonsu Bay, bimonthly variations in species composition and abundance of fish eggs and larvae were investigated. The samples were collected by using bongo net at three different stations from February 2020 to December 2021. Fish eggs were divided into Engrualis japonicus and unidentified eggs, of which Engragulis japonicus accounted for 85.6% of the total eggs collected. A total of 21 species representing 17 families and 6 orders were collected. The three dominant species were Gobiidae spp, Thryssa hamiltonii and E. japonicus and these three species accounted for 74.1% in the total number of individuals. The number of species was highest in August, 2020 and lowest in February, 2020 and 2021; the number of individuals was highest in August, 2020 and lowest in February, 2020. Temporal changes in the abundances of pelagic eggs and larval fishes corresponded with temperature.
