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.

The intake of processed foods containing high levels of sugar increases the incidence of chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. Limiting sugar intake is important for a healthy life at all ages. Therefore, this study analyzed food sources and sugar intake by the different age groups based on the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). We used 24-hour recall survey data to investigate the daily sugar intake and the major food groups and main dishes contributing to sugar intake. The mean sugar intake was 58.9-66.8 g/day. The three major food groups contributing to sugar intake were fruits (15.2-19.9 g/day), beverages (10.7-12.4 g/day), and milk and milk products (7.6-7.8 g/day). Teas and other non-alcoholic beverages (14.7-17.3 g/day), fruits (12.5-16.2 g/day), and dairy products (7.0-7.6 g/day) were the major food groups that contributed to the sugar intake. Carbonated drinks, apples, and milk were the top sources of sugar intake in each group. In conclusion, the sugar intake of Koreans is mainly from carbonated drinks, fruits, and milk. These results provided the basic data for nutrition education and nutrition program development according to the different age groups of the Korean population.

As mobile shopping has increased in the new media age, fashion consumers’ decision making and product consumption processes have changed. The volume of consumer-driven information has expanded since media and social networking sites have enabled consumers to share information they obtain. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors affecting information searching strategies and information sharing about fashion products. An online survey collected data from 466 respondents, relating to the influence of product price level and consumer SNS commitment level on information search and information sharing. Experimental design of three product price level and two consumer SNS commitment level was used. Analysis of the data identified factors in fashion information searching as ongoing searching, prepurchase web portal information search, and prepurchase marketing information search. For low-price fashion products, prepurchase product-detail influenced intention to share information. For mid-priced products, ongoing search significantly affected intention to share information. Both ongoing search and prepurchase marketing information search showed significant effects for high-price products. Consumers who are more committed to SNS engaged in significantly more searching in all aspects of information search factors. Significant interaction effect was detected for consumer SNS commitment level and product price level. When consumers with low consumer SNS commitment search for information on lower-priced fashion products, they are less likely do a prepurchase web portal information search.
