1) electron-microprobe를 응용하여 $CaO-SiO_2-Al_2O_3$ 계에서 생성한 $C_2S$, $C_3S$ 에 존재하는 sulfate의 solid, solution을 정량적으로 구할 수 있었으며 이 결과로 $C_2S$ 에 $Al_2O_3$, $SO_3$ 등이 solid soln 등으로 침적되고 이들이 $C_3S$의 생성을 억제한다는 mechanism이 확인되었다. 2) phase equilibrium(상평형)에 의하면 $Na_2SO_4$, $K_2SO_4$는 mineralizer로서 작용하며 $C_3S$ 의 생성을 돕는다. 그러나 $K_2SO_4$ 와 $Al_2SO_3$ 가 결합상태로 존재할 경우는 1,400 $^{\circ}C$에서 광범위한 liquid를 생성하며 quenching하면 glass질과 $\beta-C_2S$ 만이 얻어지고 $C_3S$ 는 생성되지 않는다. 또 이를 1,250 $^{\circ}C$ 까지 서냉하면 $C_2S$ 와 Ca, K, Al, S, 등을 함유한 새로운 물질이 생성된다. 3) $CaO-SiO_2-Al_2O_3-Fe_2O_3$ 계에서 $C_3S$ 의 생성에 미치는 $Na_2SO_4$, $K_2SO_4$ 의 영향을 실험실적으로 검토한 결과 complex interaction이 확인되었으며 $Na_2SO_4$ 는 어떤 경우에는 mineralizing effect를 상실한다는 재미 있는 사실이 발견되었다.

The adsorption of Methylene Blue on Yeong-Il bentonite which was treated by aqueous NaOH, $Na_2SO_4 or NaHSO_4 solution respectively, varying concentrations, temperature and time, was studied. In case of treatment with NaHSO_4 solution, slight improvement of the adsorption of Methylene Blue on bentonite was observed. With Na_2SO_4$ solution, the best results obtained when bentonite was treated with 1 N of the solution for 2hr at $100^{\circ}C$, and the adsorption capacity of the product was 3 times better than that of original bentonite. At the higher concentration and the higher temperature than above, faujasite was formed. With NaOH solution, the best condition was in 1N solution for 1hr at $100^{\circ}C$ and the adsorption capacity of the product was 3.3 times better than that of original bentonite. At the higher concentration of the treating agent and at the higher temperature than above, hydroxysodalite was formed.

The specimens for the corrosion test were made by hot-pressing of SiC power with 2 wt% Nl2O3 and 10wt% Al2O3 additions at 200$0^{\circ}C$ and 205$0^{\circ}C$. The specimens were corroded in 37 mole% NaCl and 63 mole% Na2SO4 salt mixture at 100$0^{\circ}C$ up to 60 min. SiO2 layer was formed on SiC and then this oxide layer was dissolved by Na2O ion in the salt mixture. The rate of corrosion of the specimen containing 10 wt% Al2O3 was slower than that of the specimen containing 2 wt% Al2O3. This is due to the presence of continuous grain boundary phase in the specimen containing 10 wt% Al2O3. The oxidation of SiC produced gas bubbles at the SiC-SiO2 interface. The rate of corrosion follows a linear rate law up to 50 min. and then was accelerated. This acceleration is due to the disruption oxide layer by the gas evolution at SiC-SiO2 interface. Pitting corrosion has found at open pores and grain boundaries.

The experiment was carried out to investigate the properties of bark extractives form Larix epilepsies and to evacuate their suitability as a bonding agent. The yield and reactivity were measured to examine the influence of temperature and time and the effect of carbonation and sulfonation. To define the possibility of practical application as wood adhesives the viscosity and gelation time were measured at 33% concentration. The results obtained were summarized as follows : 1. As the both yield and reactivity were high, extraction for 2 hours at $80^{\circ}C$ was the optimal temperature and time. 2. The highest effect achieved at 1% $Na_2CO_3$ about carbonation and 1% $Na_2SO_3$ : $NaHSO_3$ and 0.25% $Na_2SO_3$ about sulfonation. The sulfonation of 0.25% $Na_2SO_3$ increased the yield and reactivity most highly. 3. By using hot water as extraction liquid the yield was 17.2%, while the addition of 1% and 5% NaOH to the extraction liquid increased the yield to 38.6% and 44.6%, respectively. 4. Hot water extracts showed the highest reactivity(68.8%). The addition of 1% and 5% NaOH led to decrease in reactivity(49.3% and 25.8%, respectively). 5. At 33% concentration of the extracts the viscosity appeared very variable. Significantly high values of viscosity was measured in 1% NaOH solution, while very low values appeared for 5% NaOH solution. 6. The shortest gelation time was determined at pH 7 to 10 and the highest at pH 4. The use of paraformaldehyde resulted in gelation times longer than those of 37% formaldehyde solution. 7. Except the sulfonation extracts of hot water and 1% NaOH, the other extracts were found unsuitable due to high viscosity(1% NaOH extracts, sulfonation extracts) or to curing inability(5% NaOH extracts, sulfonation extracts of 5% NaOH). 8. From the three extract solutions which appeared to be suitable for use as bonding agents the hot water extracts and the sulfonation extracts of hot water were superior in extract reactivity, while the sulfonation extracts of 1% NaOH exceeded the other two extracts in extract yield.

The nutritional medium requirement for biosurfactant production by Bacillus licheniformis K51 was optimized. The important medium components, identified by the initial screening method of Plackett-Burman, were $H_3PO_4,\;CaCl_2,H_3BO_3$, and Na-EDTA. Box-Behnken response surface methodology was applied to further optimize biosurfactant production. The optimal concentrations for higher production of biosurfactants were (g/l): glucose, $1.1;NaNO_3,\;4.4;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O,\;0.8;KCl,\;0.4;CaCl_2,\;0.27;H_3PO_4,\;1.0ml/l;\;and\;trace elements\;(mg/l):H_3BO_3,\;0.25;CuSO_4,\;0.6;MnSO_4,\;2.2;Na_{2}MoO_4,\;0.5;ZnSO_4,\;6.0;FeSO_4,\;8.0;CoCL_2,\;1.0;$ and Na-EDTA, 30.0. Using this statistical optimization method, the relative biosurfactant yield as critical micelle dilution (CMD) was increased from $10{\times}\;to\;105{\times}$, which is ten times higher than the non-optimized rich medium.

Setschenow constants of six alkali and alkaline earth metal-based electrolytes (i.e., NaCl, KCl, CaCl$_2$, K$_2$SO$_4$, Na$_2$SO$_4$, NaClO$_4$) for three polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) (i.e., naphthalene, pyrene, and perylene) were investigated to evaluate the influence of a variety of inorganic salts on the aqueous solubility of PAHs. Inorganic salts showed a wide range of K$\_$s/ values (L/mol), ranging from 0.1108 (NaClO$_4$) to 0.6680 (Na$_2$SO$_4$) for naphthalene, 0.1071 (NaClO$_4$) to 0.7355 (Na$_2$SO$_4$) for pyrene, and 0.1526 (NaClO$_4$) to 0.8136 (Na$_2$SO$_4$) for perylene. In general, the salting out effect of metal cations decreased in the order of Ca$\^$2+/>Na$\^$+/>K$\^$+/. The effect of SO$_4$$\^$2-/>Cl$\^$-/>ClO4$\^$-/ was observed for anions of inorganic salts. The K$\_$s/ values decreased in the order of perylene>pyrene>naphthalene for K$_2$SO$_4$. However, the order of decreasing salting out effect for NaCl, KCl, CaCl$_2$, and NaClO$_4$ was perylene>naphthalene>pyrene. Hydration free energy of the 1:1 and 2:1 alkali and alkaline earth metal-based inorganic salts solution was observed to have a meaningful correlation with Setschenow constants. Thermodynamic interactions between PAH molecules and salt solution can be of importance in determining the magnitude of salting out effect for PAHs at a given salt solution.

The recovery of rare earth elements (REE) including La, Nd and Ce from spent batteries is important issues to reuse scarce resources. Herein, we present a simple recovery process to obtain lanthanum oxide ($La_2O_3$) from spent Ni-MH batteries, and demonstrate the conversion mechanism from $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ to $La_2O_3$. This strategy requires the initial preparation of $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ and subsequent metathesis reaction with $Na_2CO_3$ at $70^{\circ}C$. This metathesis reaction resulted in the crystalline lanthanum carbonate hydrate ($La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$) powder with plate-like morphology. On the basis of TGA result, the $La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$ powder was calcined in air at three different temperatures, that is, $300^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, and $1000^{\circ}C$. As the calcination temperature increased, the morphology of powder was changed; prism-like ($NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$) ${\rightarrow}$ platelike ($La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$) ${\rightarrow}$ aggregated irregular shape ($La_2O_3$). Futhermore, XRD results indicated that the crystalline $La_2O_3$ could be synthesized after the metathesis reaction with $Na_2CO_3$, followed by heat-treatment at $1000^{\circ}C$, along with a change of crystallographic structures; $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ ${\rightarrow}$ $La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$ ${\rightarrow}$ $La_2O_3$.

In order to understand the relative importance of various pathways leading to the production and transformation of aerosols under different atmospheric conditions, the behavior of atmospheric aerosols have been investigated using a high volume tape sample in Seoul for a week period during August 1990. The concentrations of anion $(SO^{2-}_4, NO^-_3, CI^-)$ and cation $(Ca^{2+}, Na^+, NH^+_4)$ species of aerosol samples were analyzed to identify the ionic composition of aerosols and to estimate their relative contributions to aerosol formation. The concentrations of aerosol species were calculated by a multiple regression model. The results of our calculations indicate the existence of various chemical species such as $(NH_4)_2SO_4, Na_2SO_4, CaSO_4, NH_4NO_3, NaNO_3, Ca(NO_3)_2, NH_4Cl$, and NaCl salts. According to our calculations, the most dominant species of aerosol was $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ with the mean concentration of 23.3 $/mu g/m^3$ (66.9%). The proportion of different componts with aerosol (e.g., $NH_4NO_3$ and $NH_4Cl$) was strongly affected by temperature, relative humidity, and partial presure of gases.

Dry and wet deposition samples were continuously collected by deposit gauge. In Bulkwang area of Seoul and Kanghwa in west coastal area of Korea. In order to evaluate the level of air pollution and its chemical composition, Bulkwang area located in Seoul and Kanghwa in west coastal area were chosen for sampling site. dry deposition concentrations, pH, electric conductivity and water soluble ion concentrations of deposit gauge were analysed. The results of comparison between urban area and coastal area were summarized as follows. Mean concentrations of dry deposition in Bulkwang was 2.807 ton/km$^2$/month (range: 5.171~1.128 ton/km$^2$/month) while that in Kanghwa was 1.990 ton/km$^2$/month (range: 3.358 ~ 1.084 ton/km$^2$/month), which showed a significant difference between two areas. The rainfall during the period from June to September in 1990 recorded 1859.7 mm which was 78.8% of its mean amount in Seoul, and 1846.9 mm which was 81.6% that of Kanghwa. In Bulkwang area, correlation coefficients of deposit chemical composition were 0.95 for SO$_4^{-2}$ and Na$^+$, 0.94 for SO$_4^{-2}$ and NH$_4^+$, 0.93 for CI$^-$ and NH$_4^+$ and 0.85 for Cl$^-$ and Ca$^{2+}$, respectively. Then, the results indicate that sulfates such as $Na_2SO_4$, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, and CaSO$_4$ were the major chemical state of deposit. In Kanghwa area, it was considered that NaCl, $NH_4NO_3$, NaNO$_3$, and $Ca(NO_3)_2$ were the major chemical state of deposit.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of high concentration of sodium salts and chlorides in soil on the growth of tomato and the uptake of minerals. The growth inhibition rates of plant height and dry weight were different depending on salts, but they were not related to the electric conductivities (EC) and acidities (pH) in the soil solution. The orders of growth inhibition were Cl, SO$_4$, CO$_3$, PO$_4$＞NO$_3$ in the sodium salts series, and Na, K, Mg, NH$_4$＞Ca in the chlorides. The growth inhibition rates of the sodium salts series tended to be larger than those of the chloride series. Yield was lower 30%~10% in the sodium salt and chloride series than in the control. Chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance were lower in the sodium salts and chloride series than in the control. Mineral concentration was lower in sodium salts and chlorides than in control. The nitrate absorption was inhibited in all salts except for NaNO$_3$ and NH$_4$Cl, and specially in NaCl and Na$_2$SO$_4$ treatments of the sodium salts and in KCl treatment of chloride series. K concentration was reduced NaCl and Na$_2$SO$_4$ treatments compared with the other salts. In the sodium salt series, calcium and magnesium concentration were decreased antagonistically when sodium concentration was increased.
