분류층 석탄가스 반응온도에서 slag의 배출 조건을 원활하게 유지하기 위하여 CaCO3를 flux로 사용한 용융특성을 파악하였다. 첨가에 의한 용융온도는 flux 주입량에 따라 감소하다가 증가하였다. 최저 용융온도의 범위는 ash중 CaO 농도기준 30-40%의 범위에서 나타났으며, Base/Acid ratio에 따라 최소 용융온도는 ash중 무기물간의 eutetic effect가 작용함을 알 수 있었다. 고온에서의 slag 조성은 ash의 조성과 비교시 알카리 산화물의 휘발화와 SO2의 감소를 보여주고 있으며, salg중 환원성 가스가 증가함에 따라 금속 산화물의 환원에 의해 SiO2 조성은 증가하였다. CaCO3를 혼합한 시료를 질소분위기하에서 조제하여 점도를 측정한 결과, low silica ash의 경우 낮은 점도치를 보여주나, 250 poise 이하의 범위에서 고화되는 현상이 발생하였다. high silica ash에서는 CaCO3 투입에 의해 slag 점도는 감소하였는데, slag 분석 결과 CaO가 산소 제공물질(oxide doner)로 작용하여 silicate의 응집현상을 억제하는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, the applicability of $CaCO_3$ as a seed material for crystallization reaction was tested. $CaCO_3$ was ground to lesser than 425 mesh and was made to media mixed with binder. Batch experiment was to investigate the ${PO_4}^{3-}-P$ removal efficiency of different parameters such as $CaCO_3$ dosage and binder ratio, size, type and mass of media. In addition, the effect of phosphorus removal from wastewater was tested using a lab-scaled crystallization reactor. At the results of the batch test, phosphorus removals were improved with increasing $CaCO_3$ dosage and media mass but were decreased with increasing media size. Moreover, phosphorus removals were influenced by specific surface area but media type. The average T-P and ${PO_4}^{3-}-P$ removal efficiency in a lab-scaled crystallization reactor with $CaCO_3$ media for wastewater were shown to be 60.2% and 60.3% for 18 days of operation time.

The objectives of this study were conducted to determine the effects of two chemical amendments on volatile fatty acids (VFA) and nitrogen contents in poultry litter after broiler chicks were raised in poultry houses for 6 weeks. Two different additives were applied as a top dressing to the litter at a rate of $AlCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ (200 g)+$CaCO_3$ (50 g) or Alum (200 g)+$CaCO_3$ (50 g)/kg of rice bran; untreated litter served as controls. Application of $AlCl_3+CaCO_3$ and Alum+$CaCO_3$ reduced total VFA contents by 67% and 51% at 6 weeks, respectively, compard to the control groups. The decrease in litter pH with two chemical treatments results in decreased proportion of VFA and increased nitrogen contents of the litter. These results indicate that treating $AlCl_3+CaCO_3$ and Alum+$CaCO_3$ to poultry litter offers the potential for reducing an environmental impact.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of $Ca(OH)_2$ and $CO_2$ additions on the corrosion of metal coupons(ductile iron, galvanized steel, copper and stainless steel). Corrosion rate and released metal ion concentration of ductile iron and galvanized steel decreased by adjusting alkalinity, calcium hardness and pH with $Ca(OH)_2$ & $CO_2$ additions on copper and stainless steel were less than those on ductile iron and galvanized steel. When ductile iron coupon was exposed to water treated with Ca(OH)$_2$&$CO_2$, additions, the main components of corrosion product formed on its surface were $CaCO_3$ and $Fe_2 O_3 or Fe_2 O_4$ which often reduce the corrosion rate by prohibiting oxygen transport to the metal surface.

Inorganic/organic composite particles were also synthesized by changing an initiator an it's concentration, concentration of an adsorbed surfactant, reaction temperature, and agitation speed in the presence of $CaCO_3$ adsorbed SDBS. The polymerization conditions were optimized according to the conversion of the core-shell composite particles. In the inorganic/organic core-shell composite particle polymerization, $CaCO_3$ absorbed surfactant SDBS of 0.5 wt % was prepared first and then core $CaCO_3$ was encapsulated by sequential emulsion polymerization using MMA, concentration of APS $3.16{\times}10^{-3}mol/L$ to minimize the formation of new PMMA particle during MMA shell polymerization. The structure characterization of the inorganic/organic core-shell particles was verified by measuring the decomposition degree of $CaCO_3$ using HCl solution. It was found that $CaCO_3$ was encapsulated by shell PMMA due to having excellent dispersion in the epoxy resin, smooth surface distinctly from spindle shape, and broad particle distribution after the capsulation.

This study was done to evaluate the effect of Ca source using fish (Tilapia mossambica) scales on the bone metabolism. Male Sprague-Dawley rats, 4 weeks of age, were fed low-calcium diet (0.15% Ca) for 2 weeks. The rats on the low-calcium diet were further assigned to one of following three groups for an additional 4 weeks: 1) Ca-depletion group (LoCa) given 0.15% Ca diet ($CaCO_3$), 2) Ca-repletion group (AdCa) given 0.5% Ca diet ($CaCO_3$), 3) Ca-repletion diet (AdFa) received 0.5% Ca diet (Ca source from Tilapia mossambica scales). Serum parathyroid (PTH) and calcitonin showed no differences among experimental groups. Whereas LoCa group elevated the turnover markers, serum ALP and osteocalcin, and urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD), AdCa and AdFa groups reduced their values. Elevation in the femoral weight, ash and Ca contents was observed in AdCa and AdFa groups. Bone mineral density was increased in AdCa and AdFa groups by 25-26% compared with LoCa group. These data demonstrate that Ca repletion with either Ca source from Tilapia mossambica scales or $CaCO_3$ is similarly effective in the improvement of bone turnover markers and BMD, suggesting the usefulness of Tilapia mossambica scales in the prevention of bone loss compared with $CaCO_3$.

Two dolomite samples mined from the different mines were calcined using a batch-type microwave kiln ($950/60min^{\circ}C$) to produce $CaO{\cdot}MgO$. The hydration of the $CaO{\cdot}MgO$ samples shows different reactivity. MgO was separated by reacting with a strong acid cation exchange resin using the reactivity of the hydration properties of light dolomite ($CaO{\cdot}MgO$). Calcium ($Ca-(R-SO_3)_2$) was separated from the prepared $CaO{\cdot}MgO$ by the cation exchange resin ($CaO{\cdot}MgO:R-SO_3H=1:12mass%$). High purity MgO (higher than 94 mass %) with unburned $CaCO_3$ (1~2 mass %) was obtained by the separation process. The separated MgO was heated at $950^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes to afford high purity MgO with MgO content higher than 96%. And High-grade $CaCO_3$ was prepared from the reaction with calcium adsorbed resin ($Ca-(R-SO_3)_2$) and NaOH, $CO_2$ gas.

With vigorous development of petroleum and chemical industry, emission of carbon dioxide has attracted tremendous attention globally due to global warming problem and abnormal climate change. To address these problems, in this study, a PEGBEM-g-POEM graft copolymer with high $CO_2$ affinity was synthesized and $CaCO_3$ was incorporated to form mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for enhancement of $CO_2$ permeance. By varying the addition weight of $CaCO_3$ in MMMs, high separation performance of $CO_2$ over $N_2$ was obtained. At 50 wt% loading of $CaCO_3$, the greatest separation performance was obtained with an enhanced $CO_2$ permeance from 22.5 to 28.16 GPU and slightly increased $CO_2/N_2$ selectivity from 44.7 to 45.42. It resulted from the increased $CO_2$ solubility of MMMs due to specific interaction between $CaCO_3$ and $CO_2$ molecules. Upon excess loading of $CaCO_3$, MMMs exhibited loss of $CO_2$ separation performance due to the formation of interfacial defects. Based on this result, it is considered that the proper addition of $CaCO_3$ is crucial for improvement of $CO_2$ separation performance.

The $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CoO_3$ prepared by a citrate process was shown to have higher oxygen reduction current density and specific activity than $LaCoO_3$, $La_{0.6}Ca_{0.4}CoO_3$. In the cyclic voltammogram, an oxygen desorption peak of a $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CoO_3$+carbon electrode was larger than that of a only carbon electrode. $La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2}CoO_3$ sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours was shown high oxygen reduction current density because of the particle size distribution and sintering effect.

Composites of ceramic powders and an elastomer-based matrix were prepared by mixing $CaCO_3$ powders with polyethylene and polypropylene elastomers, and their mechanical and sound insulation properties were measured. $CaCO_3$ powders with 0.7 ${\mu}m$ and 35 ${\mu}m$ particle size were added to elastomers up to 80 wt%. Scanning electron microscopy photographs showed uniform distribution of the $CaCO_3$ powders in the matrix. While density and surface hardness increased, melt index, tensile strength and elongation of the composites decreased as the amount of added $CaCO_3$ powders increased. As more $CaCO_3$ powders were added sound transmission loss of the composites increased owing to the increase of density. Addition of 0.7 ${\mu}m$ sized $CaCO_3$ powders resulted in a slightly higher transmission loss than the addition of 35 ${\mu}m$ sized powders because of the increased interface area between the elastomer matrix and the $CaCO_3$ powders. Composites with a polyethylene matrix showed higher transmission loss than those with a polypropylene matrix because the tensile strength and hardness of the polyethylene-based composites were low and their elongation was high.
