To investigate the chemical properties of rainwater in the southern part of gyeonggi Province, the rainwater was collected in Suwon and Ansung for six months from May to October in 1998, and analyzed its chemical composition. The ion balance and electric conductivity balance showed confidence to chemical analyses of rainwater. The most frequent pH range of rainwater was pH $5.0{\sim}5.6$ both in Suwon and Ansung area with distribution ratio of 37.9% and 35.3%, respectively. Among the 1mm fraction for initial 5mm of rainfall, ion concentration of initial rainwater (less than 1mm of rainfall) was higher than those of the later terms. The major ions in rainwater were $NH_4^-,\;Ca^{2+}$and $Na^+$ for cations, and $SO_4^{2-}$ and $NO_3^-$ for anions. Monthly variation of pH of rainwater showed low level of 4.2 to 4.5 in Suwon and 4.6 to 4.7 in Ansung in August and September, respectively. The $nss-SO_4^{2-}/NO_3^-$ ratio of rainwater in Suwon and Ansung area were 2.2 and 2.9 which means nonsea salt $SO_4^{2-}$ contrbuted to acidity of rainwater more in Ansung than Suwon area.

A solvent extraction technique, using bis (2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid, (HDEHP), as the extractant, was employed to examine some characteristical difference between lighter and heavier parts of 4f series. Some difference in temperature dependencies of the distribution ratios between the two groups were observed for the aqueous systems of H$_2$SO$_4$ and HCI. This experimental results were tentatively assigned as the difference in the ability of formation of inner coordination complex with HDEHP derived from the lanthanon contraction.

건축 구조재료로 사용되는 소나무의 화재조건을 알아보기 위하여 콘칼로리미터(ISO 5660-1)를 이용하여 연소성질을 분석하였다. 자연 건조된 소나무에 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, $NH_4H_2PO_4$, $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$ 등의 암모늄염을 이용하여 난연성을 부가하였다. 소나무의 함수율은 10.2%였으며 초기 열방출 곡선은 $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$인 경우 완만하게 증가하였으며 가장 좋은 난연성을 보였다. $HRR_{peak}$ 값은 무처리된 경우 $217\;kW/m^2$, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, $NH_4H_2PO_4$, $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$인 경우에는 각각 $190\;kW/m^2$, $188\;kW/m^2$, $166\;kW/m^2$로 나타났다. 즉 $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$로 처리된 경우 23.5%의 감소현상이 관찰되었다. $HRR_{peak}$ 도달 시간은 무처리된 시험편(290s) 및 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, $NH_4H_2PO_4$, $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$으로 처리된 시험편은 각각 298s, 263s, 313s로 나타났다. 연기 발생속도는 사용한 암모늄염 중 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$로 처리된 시험편이 가장 작게 관찰되어 저발연성 감연제 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다.

Acid rainwater samples were collected during 4 years from 1992 in Pusan area nearby seaside. Ionic composition of early and succeeding rainwater were investigated to identify emission sources. pH and Electronic Conductivity of samples were measured immediately after sampling. Major ion concentrations of rain samples were Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, NH4+, SO42-, NO3-, Cl- which were analyzed by ion Chromatography. 55% of early rainwater and 90% of succeeding rainwater were identified below pH 5.6. Because, Na+, K+, Ca2+ were washed mostly in early rainwater, as a result, pH values were increased by increasing rainfall amounts. It was studied that pH value was varied from ambient ion component, rainfall, and rain intensity. From the principal component analysis result, the dominant components of acid rainwater were Na+, K2+, Mg2+, Ca2+, the elements were contributed soil and marine source, the second components nuts -SO42-, SO4a-, NO3-, nuts -Ca2+ originated from man - made source.

The fretting wear corrosion characteristics between the SM20C and the SM20C, the YBsC3 and the STC4H was experimented by using radical type friction experimental device under the corrosion environment of atmosphere, neutral solution, acid solution and chemical factors of the sea water. The affection of underground water that affect fretting wear corrosion of the SM20C which is moving specimen was more sensitive at the STC4H and more insensible at the YBsC3. The affection of underground water that affect fretting wear corrosion of the STC4H was less, but in the $0.5\%\;H_2SO_4$ and $0.5\%\;HNO_3$ solutions the fretting wear corrosion of the STC4H was more large. The fretting wear corrosion of the SM20C which is moving specimen in the underground water was less than in the $3.5\%\;NaCl$, $0.5\%\;H_2SO_4$ and $0.5\%\;HNO_3$ solutions. As time passed, the fretting wear corrosion is increased in the $HNO_3$ solution and dull in the $0.5\%\;H_2SO_4$ solution.

Nanofiltration was performed with polyaluminium chloride solutions at different pH conditions to understand effects of inorganic compounds on aluminum hydrolysis products, i.e., three distinctive groups of aluminum species: polymeric Al at low pH; $Al(OH)_3$ at neutral pH; and ${Al(OH)_4}^-$ at high pH. The PACl solution was prepared to be approximately 4.0mM and adjusted to the designated pH. The influence of inorganic compounds on Al species fouling was investigated with 4.9mM $CaCl_2$ and 3.5mM $MgSO_4$ because $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Cl^-$, ${SO_4}^{2-}$ are the most common inorganics in the drinking water. NF membrane fouling was measured by flux decline rate. The impact of $CaCl_2$ was not significant on the individual Al hydrolysis products fouling. However, the flux decline rate was drastically changed in the presence of $MgSO_4$. The concentration of particulate matters was considerably increased possibly due to interaction between Al species and ${SO_4}^{2-}$ where $MgSO_4$ was introduced. The particulates were accumulated on the membrane and enhanced the hydraulic resistance of the cake layer. In addition, conductivity removal of the membrane was decreased when Al-hydroxide was dominant due to reduction of membrane surface charge. The rejection of $Ca^{2+}$and $Mg^{2+}$ were considerably different, which implys that composition of inorganics paly a role on conductivity removal.

The purpose of this research is to absorb and remove sulfur dioxide existing in the air by using ion exchange non-woven fabric. So we found out very appropriate condition of anionic exchange fabric scrubber by measuring amount of SO$_2$ adsorption under the atmosphere that concentration, velocity, and humidity was 100∼200 ppm, 0.6∼1.0 m/sec, and 30∼90 RH%, respectively. Ion exchange capacity of ion exchanger showed the maximum value, 3.75 meq/g at pH 4, and adsorption equilibrium time was the maximum value, 30 h when gas velocity was 0.6 m/sec, moreover, at 80$\^{C}$, adsorption equilibrium time tended to decrease more than 10 h. When concentration was 200 ppm, while reaction speed between SO$_2$ and ligand of fibrous ion exchanger was getting faster, adsorption break point had a tendency to get faster as well. In addition, when relative humidity in the scrubber was 90%, adsorption efficiency was 7.6%/h that seemed to be 30% higher than 4.6%/h coming from the condition that relative humidity had been 30%, and it was totally absorbed under 5 wt% NaOH solution in 5 minutes.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different sources of Ca and P on urine and ileal digesta pH, and ammonia ($NH_{3}$), methane ($CH_{4}$), and odor emission. In experiment 1, eight pigs (commercial three-way cross; initial BW 67$\pm$3 kg) were arranged in a repeated 4$\times$4 Latin Square design. All pigs were equipped with a T-cannula in the distal ileum. Four corn-soybean meal based diets were formulated. Diet 1 was the control in which dicalcium phosphate (DCP) and limestone ($CaCO_{3}$) were used as the sources of inorganic P and Ca. In Diets 2 and 3, ${H_{3}}{PO_{4}}$, monocalcium phosphate (MCP), and $CaSO_{4}$replaced DCP and $CaCO_{3}$ as the inorganic sources of P and Ca. Diet 4 was similar to Diet 1 except that it was fortified with HCl to provide an acid load similar to that of diet 2. Urine and ileal digesta pH were determined in pigs fed each of these diets. In Exp. 1, urine pH decreased (p<0.05) in animals consuming diets containing ${H_{3}}{PO_{4}}$-$CaSO_{4}$ (5.85$\pm$0.38) and MCP-$CaSO_{4}$(5.73$\pm$0.30) compared with the DCP-$CaCO_{3}$ diet (6.89$\pm$0.24). In the pigs consuming ${H_{3}}{PO_{4}}$-$CaSO_{4}$, ileal digesta pH decreased compared with the control (5.52$\pm$0.28 vs. 6.66$\pm$0.17; p<0.05). Based on the results of Exp. 1, a total of four trials were performed in environmental chambers for determining how $NH_{3}$, $NH_{4}$, and odor were affected by the different dietary Ca and P sources (Exp. 2). In Exp. 2, pigs fed the ${H_{3}}{PO_{4}}$-$CaSO_{4}$ diet had decreased (30%) $NH_{3}$ emissions compared with the control (p<0.05). Also, a combination of MCP-$CaCO_{3}$-$CaCl_{12}$ decreased $NH_{3}$ emission by 15% (p<0.05). Emission of $CH_{4}$ was decreased only with the ${H_{3}}{PO_{4}}$-$CaSO_{4}$ diet with 14% (p<0.05). Odorant emission of phenolics and volatile fatty acids increased roughly three-fold with the DCP-$CaSO_{4}$ diet but was not affected by other test diets. In conclusion, acidogenic Ca and P sources in swine diets can decrease the urinary pH and reduce $NH_{3}$ and $CH_{4}$ emission from swine facilities.

Calculations of chemical equilibrium for multicomponent aqueous systems of the HyBRID dissolution of magnetite were performed by using the HSC Chemistry. They were done by using a Pitzer-based aqueous solution model with the recipe of raw materials in experiments conducted at KAERI. The change in the amounts of species and ions and the pH values of the solution at equilibrium was observed as functions of temperature and raw amount of CuSO₄. Precipitation of Cu₂O occurred at a large amount of CuSO₄ added to the solution, while no precipitation of Cu(OH)₂ was found at any amounts of CuSO₄. The E-pH diagrams for Cu were constructed at various Cu concentrations to provide the effect of the Cu concentration on the pH values at boundaries where the coexistence of Cu⁺ ion and Cu₂O solid occurred. To prevent Cu⁺ ions from being precipitated to Cu₂O, the raw amount of CuSO₄ should be adjusted so that the pH value of the solution from the equilibrium calculation is less than that from the E-pH diagram. We provided guidelines for the raw amount of CuSO₄ and the pH value of the solution, which prevent the formation of Cu₂O precipitates in the HyBRID dissolution experiments for magnetite.

This study was carried out to investigate yearly change in the precipitation component and the source strength to acid precipitation at Iksan area from 1997 to 2003. The average ratio of acid precipitation was 70.0% in 1997, 56.3% in 1998 and 36.4% in 2003. On the other hand, it ranged from 6.9 to 19.2% when precipitation was less from 1999 to 2002. The average annual wet depositions of major ionic component in precipitation were calculated by multiplying equivalent concentration by precipitation. The order of major anion component in precipitation was ${SO_4}^{2-}>Cl^->{NO_3}^-$. On the other hand, the concentration of cation component were ${Ca_2}^+>Na^+>{NH_4}^+>{Mg_2}^+>K^+$ in order. The negative correlation was shown between pH and ionic component in precipitation except for ${Ca_2}^+\;and\;Na^+$. The correlation coefficient between pH and ${SO_4}^{2-}$ was highly significant as -0.508, which suggests that ${SO_4}^{2-}$ played important role in increasing the acidity of precipitation. Also the anions such as ${SO_4}^{2-}\;and\;{NO_3}^-$ were highly significant with cations such as ${Ca_2}^+,\;{Mg_2}^+,\;K^+,\;{NH_4}^+\;and\;Na^+$. As a result though pH was enable to use the acidity index of precipitation in somewhere, evaluating only pH in precipitation was insufficient as the index to establish corresponding strategy for acid rain.
