Environment
Overview
We are creating new visions for wastewater treatment, resource recovery, air pollution control, soil/groundwater remediation using the capacity of oxidation/reduction, disinfection and detoxification of radiolysis
Research goal and summary
To improve human health and quality of life, our research focuses on developing innovative radiation technologies to treat various environmental pollutants such as pathogenic microorganisms, refractory hazardous organics, wastes, air pollutants, green house gases. particle matters. Moreover, this research connects with finding the key solutions of resource scarcity.
- Environmental remediation and hazardous material treatment by radiolysis
- Development of energy sustainable wastewater treatment system using an electron-beam
- Development of air pollutants and green house gases treatment using radiation technology
- Development of radiation technology for resource recovery from organic wastes
Main research results
- Development of organic fertilizer using organic wastes
- Development of PCBs treatment technology in transformer
- Acquisition of ‘New Excellent Technology’ regarding hygienization of wastewater using electron-beam irradiation
- Development of remediation technology of soil and groundwater contaminated with leachate from animal carcass disposal site
- Development of green house gases (SF6, NF3) treatment technology
- Study on decomposition mechanism of refractory organic matters by radiolysis
- Development of resource recovery from organic wastes
