본 연구는 플라즈마 발생 장치를 수경재배 시스템과 결합하여 상추를 재배하고 수확 후 플라즈마 활성수와 과산화수소 0, 3, 6% 농도에 침지 처리를 하여 생육량 및 바이오 활성 물질 함량을 비교하였다. 고농도의 과산화수소로 인하여 근권부 생체중이 저해되는 결과를 나타냈으며, 엽장과 근권부 생체중을 제외하고는 유의적 차이가 발생하지 않았다. 상추 지상부의 chlorogenic acid와 4-hydroxy3-benzoic acid, 4-hydroxy benzoic acid 그리고 지상부 총 페놀 함량은 과산화수소 6%에 서 유의적으로 가장 높았다. 하지만 근권부에서 측정된 이차 대사산물인 quercetin 및 근권부 총 페놀 함량은 과산화수소 처리구보다 플라즈마 활성수에서 유의하게 높았다. 과산화수소 처리 기간 동안 상추의 뿌리는 직접적인 피해를 받으며 괴사하였으나, 잎에서는 과산화수소 6% 처리에서 바이오 활성 물질이 증가하는 결과를 나타내었다. 플라즈마 활성수 처리 상추는 생리 장해가 발생하지 않았으며, 과산화수소 6% 처리와 유사한 양의 이차대사산물 증대 효과를 나타내었다. 또한, 뿌리의 바이오 활성 물질 함량이 가장 높았던 결과 등을 고려 할 때 근채류 및 엽채류의 수경재배에 플라즈마 기술을 적용할 시 작물의 바이오 활성 물질 함량을 증대시키는 데 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the chemical quenching system for residual ozone and to determine the operating condition for the quenching system. Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and sodium thiosulfate (Na₂S₂O₃) were investigated as quenching reagents for ozone removal, and the tendency of each chemical was notably different. In the case of H₂O₂, the degradation rate of ozone was increased as the concentration of H₂O₂ increase, and temperature and pH value have a significant effect on the degradation rate of ozone. On the other hand, the degradation rate of ozone was not affected by the concentration of Na₂S₂O₃, temperature and pH value, due to the high reactivity between the S₂O₃²- and ozone. This study evaluates the decomposition mechanism of ozone by H₂O₂ and Na₂S₂O₃ with consideration for the water quality and reaction time. Furthermore, the removal test for the quenching reagents, which can be remained after reaction with ozone, was conducted by GAC process.

This studies were carried out in summer season to increase high temperature tolerance using hydrogen peroxide treatments on cucumber in greenhouse. The water stress of cucumber in greenhouse by the hydrogen peroxide treatments showed as control〉250 mM〉500 mM treatments in order. The photosynthesis rate of cucumber at 30℃ did not show difference with each hydrogen peroxide treatment in temperature controlled greenhouse. However, the photosynthesis rate of cucumber in the control and hydrogen peroxide treatments at 40℃ was significantly different. The photosynthesis rate of cucumber in combined treatment with 1,000 mg·L-1 CO2 supply and hydrogen peroxide was also higher than control, however, there was no different of photosynthesis in 250 mM and 500 mM treatment. The value of Fv/Fm and Fm/Fo of chlorophyll fluorescent in 500 mM hydrogen peroxide treatment at 40℃ was highest. Also the activity of POD, the antioxidant enzyme, was higher with high hydrogen peroxide concentration than the other treatments. The high temperature limits for growth were 43℃ in the control, 44℃ in the 250 mM and 46℃ in the 500 mM according to analyze chlorophyll fluorescent Fo. The high temperature tolerance in cucumber increased approximately 3℃ by the hydrogen peroxide treatments under this experiment conditions.

Carbonization products C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5 were prepared by the carbonization of date pit in limited air, at 500, 600, 700, 800 and 1000℃, respectively. C1-V-600, C3-V-600, C1-V-1000 and C3-V-1000 were prepared by thermal treatment of C1 and C3 under vacuum at 600 and 1000℃. The textural properties were determined from nitrogen adsorption at 77 K and from carbon dioxide adsorption at 298 K. The surface pH, the FTIR spectra and the acid and base neutralization capacities of some carbons were investigated. The amounts of surface oxygen were determined by out-gassing the carbon-oxygen groups on the surface as CO2 and CO. The adsorption of water vapor at 308 K on C1, C2, C3 and C4 was measured and the decomposition of H2O2 at 308 K was also investigated on C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5. The surface area and the total pore volume decreased with the rise of the carbonization temperature from 500 to 1000℃. The adsorption of water vapor is independent on the textural properties, while it is related to the amount of acidic carbon-oxygen groups on the surface. The catalytic activity of H2O2 decomposition does not depend on the textural properties, but directly related to the amount of basic carbon-oxygen complexes out-gassed as CO, at high temperatures.
