This study conducted the Life Cycle Assessment(LCA) on waste rubber recycling technology for recovering rubber product from the waste tires. Environmental impacts were assessed for the five categories of impacts: global warming, resource depletion, acidification, eutrophication, photochemical oxide production, and ozone layer depletion. When recycling 1ton of waste tire containing rubber, global warming impact was 1.77E+02 kg $CO_2-eq.$, resource depletion impact was 1.23E+00 kg Sb-eq., acidification impact was 5.92E-01 kg $SO_2-eq.$, eutrophication impact was 1.23E-01 kg $PO{_4}^{3-}-eq.$, photochemical oxide production impact was 3.42E-01 kg $C_2H_4-eq.$, and ozone layer depletion impact was 1.87E-04 kg CFC11-eq. In terms of overall environmental impacts, carbon, softener and electricity the greatest impact, so it is necessary to compare the environmental impacts of the raw materials to replace carbon and softener, and a method to reduce the filler usage in the process is needed. In addition, it is necessary to improve energy efficiency, change to low-energy sources, and apply renewable energy.

Fifty ancient Korean coins originated in Yi Dynasty have been determined for 9 elements such as Sn, Fe, As, Ag, Co, Sb, Ir, Ru and Ni by instrumental neutron activation analysis and for 3 elements such as Cu, Pb, and Zn by atomic absorption spectrometry. Bronze coins originated in early days of the dynasty contain as major constituents Cu, Pb and Sn approximately in the ratio 90 : 4 : 3, whereas, those in latter days contain in ratio 7 : 2 : 0. Brass coins which had begun in 17 century contain as major constituents Cu, Zn and Pb approximately in the ratio 7 : 1 : 1. The multivariate data have been analyzed for the relation among elemental contents through the variance-covariance matrix. The data have been further analyzed by a principal component mapping method. As the results training set of 8 class have been chosen, based on the spread of sample points in an eigen vector plot and archaeological data such as age and the office of minting. The training set and test set of samples have finally been analyzed for the assignment to certain classes or outliers through the statistical isolinear multiple component analysis (SIMCA).

본 연구에서는 단양지역에 분포한 석회암동굴계의 수질에 대한 주요 원소와 미량 원소 그리고 오염실태를 살펴보았다. 풍화물에 존재하는 미량 원소가 기반암보다 수 배 내지 수 백배 이상 부하되어 있었다. TSD와 EC 등은 화강암의 지하수 보다 높은 경향이 있었고 pH는 중성 내지 알칼리성이었다. Ca와 Mg은 기반암에서 용탈되어 지하수로 용존된 것으로 50ppm이상을 함유하고 있다. Fe과 K은 다른 주요 원소보다 현저히 낮은 경향이 있었다. 주요 음이온인 F$^{-}$ , Cl$^{-}$ , NO$_3$$^{-}$ , SO$_4$$^{-}$ 등은 환경기준치 보다도 현저히 낮은 상태이며, 따라서 오염이 안된 상태로 볼 수 있다. 미량 원소중 Al, Sr, Ba등이 높은 반면에 Co, Mo, Sb, Cs, W, Pb, U, Mn 등은 매우 극소량으로 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구지역 중 온달굴, 고수굴, 천동, 노동 등지는 오염이 거의 안된 상태로 매우 양호한 편이나 천동굴은 관광객으로 인하여 일부 원소가 오염되어 있는 실정이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using sedimentation calcium carbonate production based on microorganism activities in the strength manifestation of various soil conditions including ground. For analysis and comparison of microbial cementation soil's strength, unconfined compression test was executed by each content of soil(S), water(W), microorganism(B), microorganism and deposit (BF), microorganism, admixture and deposit(BCF) at specimen. The result, the strength of SB(soil+microorganism) and SBF(soil+microorganism+deposit) increased about 8%, 15% than SW(soil+water). Also, initial strength increased. But the strength of SBC(soil+microorganism+admixture) and SBCF(soil+microorganism+deposit+admixture) increased about 71%, 115% than SW(soil+water). The results of the SEM analysis, leading to the formation of an adhesive substance layers at the surface and resulting in firm particle configuration. The XRD examination of the sediment resulting from the reaction between the microorganism and the deposit control agent confirmed the presence of a type of calcium carbonate ($CaCo_3$) vaterite, which affects soil strength formation, as well as sodium silicate, silicides and so forth. This indicates that microorganism plays an important role in the production of carbonate ($CaCo_3$), sodium silicate and silicides. It affects to revelation of ground strength.

We evaluated the geochemical characteristics and their potential pollution of Asian Dusts in Daejeon, Korea during spring 2007. Compared with the chemical compositions of soils in source area of Asian Dust, those of aerosols in Daejeon were enriched with trace elements (ten to hundred fold), inferring that pollutants from China have affected on local environment in adjoining country such as Korea. Chemical analysis of aerosols during Asian dust showed that fine particles ($PM_{2.5}$) contained high contents of trace elements such as Cr, Cu, Pb, Zn, V, S, As, Cd, Co, Ni, Mo, Sb, Cs, Rb, Th, Sc and Y. In the case of TSP (Total Suspended Particle), Zr, Sr, Ba, Li, Th and U were contained much more than other trace elements. The contents of some elements (i.e. Li, Cs, Co, U, Cr, Ni, Rb, V, Th, Y, Sr and Sc) in aerosols collected in Asian Dust period, which are not likely enriched by air pollutants, were higher (2 - 4.2 fold) than those in Non Asian Dust period, indicating that these elements could be used as indicator elements for determining the occurrence of Asian Dust phenomena (especially, Sr, V, Cr & Li). In the case of Asian Dust coming through the big cities and/or industrial areas of China, the domestic aerosols had higher contents of trace elements (such as S, Cd, Zn, Pb, Cu, Mo and As) than those from Northeastern China via North Korea, indicating that the transportation courses of air mass are very important to determine the pollution degrees. Using the enrichment factors of trace elements in aerosols during Asian Dust and Non Asian Dust, we identified that some elements (i.e. S, Zn, Cu, Pb, As, Mo and Cd) were most problematic in terms of environmental hazard aspects, and these elements could affect adverse effects on human health as well as ecosystem and surface environment (soil and water) through long-lived precipitation.

In this study, we developed mixed matrix membranes by blending thermoplastic elastomer, i.e. polystyreneblock-polybutadiene-block-polystyrene (SBS) block copolymer with the synthesized UiO-66 particles for CO₂/N₂ gas separation. To investigate the effect of UiO-66 particles in the SBS matrix, we prepared different mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) by varying the mass ratio of SBS and UiO-66 in the blend. To fabricate well-dispersed UiO-66, the SBS/UiO-66 mixture was sonicated and stirred thoroughly. The physico-chemical properties of prepared membranes were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The gas separation performance was measured by time-lag method. The permeability of the MMMs increased significantly as the content of UiO-66 increased, but the CO₂/N₂ selectivity did not decrease significantly. The membranes containing 20% of UiO-66 particles showed the best performance with the CO₂ permeability and CO₂/N₂ selectivity of 663.8 barrer and 13.3, respectively. This result showed performance closer to upper bound than pure SBS membrane in the Robeson plot, as the added UiO-66 particles did not significantly sacrifice selectivity and more than doubled gas permeability.
