폴리에틸렌 정밀여과 모세관막을 이용한 벤토나이트 콜로이드 현탁액의 투과유속 감소특성을 검토하였다. 운전시간이 경과하면서 투과유속이 감소되는 원인은 막표면 위에서 케익층의 성장과 입자들에 의한 세공막힘 때문이었으며, 운전시간이 경과하여 정상상태에 도달하면 투과유속은 케익여과 모델에 의해 지배받는다. 운전압력이 높은 경우의 투과유속 감소는 세공막힘과 케익층이 치밀해졌기 때문이다. 운전압력이 증가함에 따라 J/J₁는 감소하였으며, 0.5 kg/sub f//㎠일 때의 45%, 2.0 kg/sub f//㎠일 때 38%로 감소하였다. 운전압력 0.5 kg/sub f//㎠에서 총 막오염에 대한 성분오염의 비율은 표준세공막힘 14.6%, 완전세공막힘 23.4% 그리고 케익여과 62.0% 이었다. 순환흐름속도의 증가로 인해 투과유속은 증가하였고, 그 효과는 운전압력이 1.0 kg/sub f//㎠일 때가 운전압력 2.0 kg/sub f//㎠ 경우보다 컸다. 세공크기가 0.34 ㎛인 막의 투과유속은 세공의 크기가 0.24 ㎛인 막보다 컸으며, 용액의 농도에 따른 투과유속은 농도가 낮은 용액이 컸다. 세공크기가 0.34 ㎛인 막의 막오염 형태는 유사하지만 농도가 200 ppm인 용액의 경우 1000 ppm인 용액에 비하여 상대적으로 미약한 세공막힘 현상을 보였다.

Self-diffusion coefficients of colloidal ass9Ciation structures in the aqueous solutions of anionic ammonium dodecyl sulfate (ADS) and cationic octadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (OTAC) surfactants were measured by pulsed-gradient spin echo NMR. The results were interpreted on the basis of the ADS/OTAC/water phase diagram. Crossing the phase boundaries, significant changes in self diffusion coefficients were observed and well correlated to the phase diagram. For the micelles their apparent radii were obtained from Stokes-Einstein equation. Their values were 15 for the ADS micelles and 54 a for the OTAC micelles, respectively. For vesicles which were formed spontaneously at different relative amounts of the surfactants and total surfactant concentrations, the radius was measured as 50 to 200 nm. This result is in fair agreement with those by TEM and light scattering.

멤브레인 여과 실험에서 얻어진 데이터 처리에 간단한 수치해석을 적용하여 삼투압(osmotic pressure) 과 구배확산계수(gradient diffusion coefficient)를 도출하는 새로운 방법론을 제시하였다. 삼투압과 구배확산계수는 이론 및 실험적으로 쉽게 구할 수 없는 물리적 특성치로서 멤브레인 여과의 특성 규명에 중요하다. 모델 라텍스 콜로이드의 여과시간에 따른 투과플럭스(permeate flux) 값과 이에 대한 수치적분과 수치미분 데이터로부터 분산된 입자농도의 함수인 삼투압 관계식을 구했다. 이로부터 계산된 열역학적 계수(thermodynamic coefficient)는 입자농도가 증가할수록 감소하는 거동을 보였고, 여기에 기존에 제시되어 있는 수력학적 계수(hydrodynamic coefficient)를 도입하여 구배확산계수를 산출하였다. 아울러, 본 연구에서 계산된 입자농도에 따른 구배확산계수의 결과와 동일한 멤브레인과 라텍스 콜로이드의 여과에 대해서 기존에 통계역학적 시뮬레이션으로 예측한 결과를 비교하였다.

In this study, high-purity silver nanocolloids were synthesized by an electrolytic reaction, and the effect of temperature on the nanocolloid concentration was analyzed by performing the reaction at 70 °C and 90 °C. The antibacterial properties of the thus-synthesized silver nanocolloids were also studied. When the synthesis was performed at 90 °C, the concentration of silver nanocolloid increased to 14 mg/L after 5 min, 1756 mg/L after 30 min, and 2147 mg/L after 60 min. The concentration of silver nanocolloid synthesized by electrolytic reaction at 70 °C and 90 °C for 60 min was 1,882 mg/L and 2147 mg/L, respectively. The preferred temperature at which the electrolytic synthesis is performed is 70 °C to obtain high concentrations of 1,000 mg/L or more. The antibacterial performance of the thus-synthesized silver nanocolloids was 99.9% for E. coli and 99.5% for Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

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.

본 연구에서는 금 나노입자 콜로이드를 이용하여 safranin-O의 광촉매적 분해를 관찰하였다. 금 나노입자는 용액상에서 safranin-O의 분해 속도를 빠르게 하기 위해서 사용되었다. 금 나노입자 콜로이드는 수용액상에서 Na₂CO₃ 와 PVP 고분자(poly(vinyl pyrrolidone))를 이용하는 환원방법에 의하여 제조하였다. Safranin-O의 분해현상은 자외선(UV light)와 과산화수소(H₂O₂)의 존재 하에서 금 나노입자 콜로이드와 염화금의 농도, 반응계의 산도(pH), 반응시간과 같은 실험조건들의 조절을 통해 연구되었다. 분해반응에 사용된 금 나노입자 콜로이드의 농도가 증가함에 따라서 염료가 분해되는 속도가 증가하였다. Safranin-O의 광산화 반응은 광학적으로 측정되었고, 금 나노입자의 기본적인 물성과 촉매 특성은 UV-Vis 광학계를 이용하여 측정되었다.

본 연구에서는 컬럼실험을 통해서 여러 종류의 콜로이드가 같이 존재할 때의 거동을 관찰하였다. 본 실험에서는 일반 pH조건에서 서로 반대의 표면전하를 띠는 ferrihydrite (100 nm; 양전하)와 비정질 SiO2 (40 nm, 80 nm; 음전하) 나노입자들와 음전하를 띠는 177~250μm의 석영을 고정상으로 이용하였다. 실험결과는, 양전하를 띠는 콜로이드(ferrihydrite)가 존재한다고 하더라도 그 비율이 많지 않으면 음전하를 띠는 콜로이드(SiO2)와의 상호작용에 의해서 석영고정상 속을 쉽게 이동될 수 있음을 보여주었다. 이는 자연조건하에서는 양전하를 띠는 오염물질과 음전하를 띠는 오염물질이 동시에 콜로이드에 의해서 이동될 수 있음을 지시한다.

강변여과는 강물을 강변의 충적대수층에 통과시켜 지층의 자체정화능력을 이용하여 오염물질을 상당량 저감시킨 후 양수하는 방식이다. 국내에서는 대부분의 원수를 지표수에서 취수하여 사용하고 있는 실정이나, 오염물질의 증가로 인하여 지표수를 원수로 사용하기가 점점 어려워지고 있다. 강변여과를 이용하여 양질의 원수를 확보하기 위해서는 오염물 이동에 관한 이해가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 대수층에 용존성 유기물질(DOM)과 박테리아가 동시에 존재할 경우를 대상으로 대

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.

The effects of Ca^2+ ion on the formation of micelle colloid of nonionic surfactants, nonylphenol-(ethylene oxide)_n [NP-(EO)n; n=11,40,100) were investigated by the iodine solubilization method. The characteristics of spectra depended on the concentration of Ca^2+ ion and the number of EO unit. Above CMC(critical micelle concentration), the intensity of the CT (chargetransfer) band by the addition of Ca^2+ ion for the NP-(EO)_11 and NP-(EO)_40 increased and then decreased and for the NP-(EO)_100 continuously increased. The increase in the intensity of CT band were attributed to the compactness of micelle in the presence of Ca^2+ ion. These phenomena mad be explained by the fact that the linear ethylene oxide (EO) chain, relatively free to assume various configuration in aqueous solution, could form a pseudo-crown ether structures capable of forming complexes with Ca^2+ ion.
