As a candidate for cheap oxygen carrier, $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carriers have been developing. However, research on reaction characteristics and side reaction of $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carrier is very limited. There are many possible reactions for main components of syngas from coal. In this study, we prepared three $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carriers ($CaSO_4$-$Fe_2O_3$/bentonite, $CaSO_4$-$K_2CO_3$/bentonite, $CaSO_4$-CaO/bentonite) and performed reduction tests by hydrogen. Cyclic reduction-oxidation tests up to $5^{th}$ cycle are also conducted using hydrogen as fuel. Reduction reactivity of those $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carriers were compared with that of NiO based oxygen carrier (OCN703-1100). Real weight change fractions of $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carriers were higher than theoretical oxyen transfer capacity and reactivity of these particles decreased with the number of cycle increased. To check possible side reaction of $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carriers, $CaSO_4$ decomposition tests were carried out and $SO_2$ was detected even at $700^{\circ}C$. Consequently, we could conclude that $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carriers decompose and release $SO_2$ and this reaction lead reactivity decay of $CaSO_4$ based oxygen carries.

The Li$_2SO_4$ system containing various mol${\%}$ of CaSO$_4$ were synthesized. The structure and the electrical conduction of these system were studied at the temperature from 20 to 700$^{\circ}C$. In the region of CaSO$_4$ mol ratio higher than 0.05, it could be confirmed that Li$_2SO_4-CaSO_4$ system does not form solid solution. Due to the substituted Ca$^{2+}$, the transition temperature (monoclinic to cubic) is shifted to the low temperature. The ionic conduction of monoclinic Li$_2SO_4-CaSO_4$ increased with increasing lithium vacancy which was produced by substituted Ca$^{2+}$, but that fcc Li$_2SO_4-CaSO_4$ was not influenced by the substituted Ca$^{2+}$ ion.

When calcium sulfoaluminate-based expansive cement was hydrated, ettringite and monosulfate were mainly formed. The crack of hardened cement was prevented by compensating drying shrinkage due to formation of the above hydrates. In order to study the hydration properties of calcium sulfoaluminate-based expanding cement, 3CaOㆍ3Al$_2$O$_3$ㆍCaSO$_4$(C$_4$A$_3$S) was prepared by chemical synthesis, and then the hydration of $C_4$A$_3$S-Ca(OH)$_2$-CaSO$_4$.$2H_2O$-C$_3$A system_was characterized. Good $C_4$A$_3$S phase was prepared at $1300^{\circ}C$ by chemical synthesis, and the main hydration product of $C_4$A$_3$S-Ca(OH)$_2$-CaSO$_4$.2$H_2O$ system was ettringite. In the case of hydration $C_4$A$_3$S-Ca(OH)$_2$-CaSO$_4$ㆍ 2$H_2O$-C$_3$A system, ettringite was formed in the early period and it was transformed into monosulfate while consumed gypsum.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of heating times of soy protein isolate(SPI) and mixing ratio of coagulants mixture on water holding capacity(WHC) and oil absorption capacity (OAC) of SPI, texture properties and yield of tofu. The effect of heating at $100^{\circ}C$ on the amounts of coagulants required for coagulation showed that the amounts of $CaCl_{2},\;MgCl_{2}$ and GDL decreased as the heating time extended to $6{\sim}9$ minutes while $CaSO_{2}$ was changed little. The tofu yield showed maximum for the tofu prepared by 6 minutes boiling and coagulation with $CaSO_{4}$. The WHC of SPI was significantly reduced by heating at $100^{\circ}C$ while OAC was rather increased until 9 minutes of heating. The textural properties of SPI tofu coagulated with mixed coagulants$(CaSO_{4}-GDL,\;CaSO_{4}-CaCl_{2},\;CaCl_2-GDL)$ showed that softer tofu was obtained as the ratio of $CaSO_{2}$ increased and harder tofu as the ratio of $CaCl_{2}$ and GDL increased. The maximum and minimum tofu yields were prepared from 100% of $CaSO_{2}$ and 100% of GDL, respectively. Organoleptic properties showed that more uniform and tender tofu were obtained with higher portion of $CaSO_{2}$ in the mixed coagulants and higher intensity of sourness and bitterness were scored as the GDL and $CaCl_{2}$ added more.

To investigate the textural and physical characteristics of WSF(whole soybean flour) tofu affected by coagulant and its concentration, $CaCl_2$, $CaSO_4$, $GDL(glucono-{\delta}\;lactone)$, $MgCl_2$, and some mixed coagulants were used in this study. Yields of WSF tofu coagulated with $CaSO_4$ and GDL were ranged 4.3-4.5(g/g WSF), but common tofu was 2.2-3.0(g/g soybean). As the water addition ratio increased, L and a value were increased while heating time increased, b value increased. L value of WSF tofu was lower and b value was higher than conventional tofu and 4 commercial tofus. Kinds of coagulant and its concentration significantly affected to textural properties of WSF tofu. As the concentration of coagulant increase, the hardness increased in most all coagulants. WSF tofu coagulated with $CaSO_4$ and GDL recorded low hardness and adhesiveness, and high springiness among the used coagulants at the same concentration. As the hardness increased, the gumminess and chewiness increased in most all coagulants. As coagulation temperature and molding pressure increase, hardness also increased. WSF tofu coagulated with 0.3% $CaSO_4+GDL$ was the most similar in the textural properties with conventional tofu and 4 commercial tofus. WSF tofu coagulated with 0.3% of $CaSO_4+GDL$ at $85^{\circ}C$, 10 times water addition, 5min. heating and $25.0g/cm^2$ molding pressure recorded the highest score in the sensory evaluation.

The thermal effect on the compositional change of the $SO_2$ absorption process product was investigated compared with the composition of raw material when dolomite is employed in place of lime in the scrubbing process based on thermodynamic estimation. It was considered that the equilibrium reactions which directly related with the formation of $CaSO_4$ and $MgSO_4$, the absorption process products, are those between $Ca^{2+}$ and $Ca(OH)_2$, $Mg^{2+}$ and $Mg(OH)_2$, and the secondary dissociation reaction of $H_2SO_4$. It was thought to be necessary to examine the enthalpy change for the formation reactions of $CaSO_4$ and $MgSO_4$ along with the thermal feature of the relative reactions to figure out the influence of temperature on the compositional change of absorption process products. The stable regions for $Ca(OH)_2$ and $Mg(OH)_2$ in Pourbaix diagram were found to be increased as temperature rises and the equilibrium reaction between $Ca^{2+}$ and $Ca(OH)_2$ was investigated to be more strongly influence by temperature change compared with the equilibrium reaction between $Mg^{2+}$ and $Mg(OH)_2$. The amounts of $CaSO_4$ and $MgSO_4$ were anticipated to be decreased with temperature considering the thermal characteristics for the equilibrium reactions regarding calcium, magnesium, and $H_2SO_4$. It was understood that the formation ratio between $CaSO_4$ and $MgSO_4$ is greater than the composition ratio between calcium and magnesium contained in dolomite at specific temperature and the decrease of the formation ratio of $CaSO_4$ and $MgSO_4$ with temperature was estimated to be diminished as the content of calcium in dolomite is increased. In addition, the extent of the change in the compositional ratio between absorption process products was examined to be reduced compared with the composition of raw material as the calcium content in dolomite is raised.

The hydration of flyash-$Ca(OH)_2-CaSO_4$.$2H_2O$ system was stuedied with varing mixing ratio of flyahs $Ca(OH)_2$ and caSO4.2H2O The samples were steam-cured for 1-7 days at 9$0^{\circ}C$. The optimum mixing composition was flyash : Ca (OH)2=65:35 with 15% $CaSO_4$.42H_2O$ added which produced the hardened material having the best compressive strength (300kg/$cm^2$) Also the low specific gravity(1, 2) of the hardened paste suggests the possibility that it can be used as a light-weight building material. The added $CaSO_4$.42H_2O$ constituted calcium-sulfo-aluminate hydrates which activates the formation of C-S-H hy-drates. Both hydrates developed the strength of hardened paste. The amount of calcium-sulfo-aluminate hydrates was increased when the $CaSO_4$.42H_2O$ was added over 15% however the increased amount did not help the development of strength because of the individually grown calcium-sulfo-aluminate hydrates.

In this study, to develop highly sensitive radiation sensors, $CaSO_4$ : Tm phosphors and its disc-type TLD elements embedded PTFE(polytetrafluoroethylene) are fabricated. The highest sensitivity of $CaSO_4$ : Tm phosphors is obtained when phosphors have been doped with 0.5mol % Tm and sintered in atmosphere at $600^{\circ}C$ for two hours. Fabricated disc-type elements are made from a homogeneous mixture of phosphors and PTFE powder. They are first cold-pressed and then polymerized at $370^{\circ}C$ in air for one hour. The dose dependence of the prepared $CaSO_4$ : Tm TLD radiation sensors is linear within the range of $100{\mu}Gy{\sim}10Gy$ for X-rays and ${\gamma}-rays$. The response of $CaSO_4$ : Tm to 30keV X-rays is ten times higher than that of 1.25MeV $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-rays$. The fading rate of the main peak is about 2% per a month. The spectral peaks of TL emission spectrum are at about 350nm and 475nm. The $CaSO_4$ : Tm TLD radiation sensors prepared in this work may be used as radiation dosimeter for personal and environmental monitoring because of their high sensitivity and little fading.

Geochemical characteristics of groundwater in the different kinds of various lithology such as Haman formation, Panyaweol formation, Jusan andesitic formation and Palgongsan granite is distinguished by mineralogical and chemical compositions. The Concentration of the majority of solutes in groundwaters of Haman and Panyaweol formation is higher than in that of andesite and granite. Higher concentration of $HCO_3^{-}{\;}and{\;}SO_4^{2-}$ anions in the groundwater is peculiar. High concentrations of $Ca^{2+},{\;}Mg^{2+},{\;}HCO_3^{-}$ in the groundwaters of the sedimentary rocks result mainly from reaction of $CO^{2-}$ charged water with calcite and weathered feldspars. With the Piper diagram, the groundwaters of Haman formations are mainly plotted in $CaSO_4-CaCl_2$ type, whereas those of Panyaweol formations are plotted in the bothside of $Ca(HCO_3)_2{\;}and{\;}CaSO_4-CaCl_2$ type. Thses two different types of $Ca(HCO_3)_2{\;}and{\;}CaSO_4-CaCl_2$ groundwater were originated from dissolution of calcite($Ca(HCO_3)_2)$ and the oxidation of pyrite($CaSO_4-CaCl_2$), respectively. And it also is influenced by anthropogenic contamination. Three factors were extracted from the factor analysis for chemical data. Factor 1, controlled by $SO_4^{2-},{\;}Na^{+},{\;}Ca^{2+}$ and Fe, explains the dissolution of calcite, plagioclase and oxidation of pyrite. Factor 2, controlled by $HCO_3^{-}{\;}and{\;}Mg^{2+}$, mainly explains the dissolution of Mg-carbonates and dolomitization. Factor 3, controlled by $Cl^{-},{\;}K^{+}{\;}and{\;}NO_3^{-}$, is subject to the influence of artificial pollution including industrial waste water disposal. In this study area, some industrial complex which is close to Keumho river show the higher score of factor 3.
