The variation of microorganisms (activated slude, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Aureobasidium pullulans) caused by the biosorption of $Pb^{2+}$ was observed by TEM and microscope. By the TEM observation of S. cerevisiae, the plasmolysis and lysis of cell wall or cell membrane were occurred by the penetration of $Pb^{2+}$ into the inner cellular region. However, in the case of A. pullulans, the plasmolysis and lysis of cell wall or cell membrane were not occurred because of the prevention of $Pb^{2+}$ penetration by the extracelluar polymeric substances (EPS). A flocculation of microorganisms, in the case of A. pullulans, was observed by the $Pb^{2+}$ accumulation after 3~4 h and the color was changed from white to black after 1 day. The flocculation of activated sludge was improved by the accumulation $Pb^{2+}$ after 1 h, however, the floc was broken up and the settling efficiency decreased after 1 day.

폐광된 광산에 방치된 폐광석에 함유되어 있는 황화광물이 분해되어 다른 광물에 흡착되거나, 산화환경에 안정한 형태의 2차 광물로 침전 혹은 공침 되는가에 대한 연구는 광산복 원을 결정하는데 직접적인 지구화학적 자료로 활용될 수 있다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 청양광산에 방치된 폐광석을 대상으로 XRD, SEM/EDS연구를 이용하여 산화작용으로 인한 황화광물 주변에 침전된 2차 광물에 대한 광물학적 연구를 수행하였다. 광물학적 연구 결과, 산화환경에서 황화광물의 산화작용으로 인하여 용출된 중금속 이온과 철과 망간 이온들은 침전(Fe, Mn, Pb), 공침 (Fe, Mn, As, Pb) 및 흡착(As, Cu, Pb, Zn) 등의 화학반응을 통하여 다시 고정화됨으로서, 현장에서 자연적으로 정화되고 있는 것이 확인되었다.

The stability constants$(K_f)$ of the complexes of some transition and post-transition metal ions (Co(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ), Cd(Ⅱ), Pb(Ⅱ), Hg(Ⅱ)) with $N_2O_3$-donor macrocyclic ligand, 1,15-diaza-3,4 : 12,13-dibenzo-5,8,11-trioxacyclooctadecane ($NtnOdienH_4$), have been determined by potentiometry in aqueous solution at $25^{\circ}C$. Log $K_f$ values of the complexes were : Co(Ⅱ): 3.83, Ni(Ⅱ) : 4.56, Cu(Ⅱ) : 7.74, Zn(Ⅱ) : 4.98, Cd(Ⅱ) : 3.91, Pb(Ⅱ) : 6.65, and Hg(Ⅱ) : 14.87. The order of stabilities of transition metal complexes was the same as the natural order of stability proposed by Williams-Irving. In post-transition metal complexes, the order of stabilities was Cd(Ⅱ) < Pb(Ⅱ) < Hg(Ⅱ), and the covalent character in metal ion-donor atoms bonds appeared a dominant factor in the stability. In methanol solution, each metal ion forms 1 : 1 complex, while Ni(Ⅱ) ion forms both 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 complexes. It was confirmed by $^1H-$ and $^{13}C-$NMR spectral study that the nitrogen atoms in the ligand were major contributors for the complexation of post-transition metal ions with the ligand. It was shown, by elementry analysis, electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and spectral analysis, that solid Cu(Ⅱ)-and Zn(Ⅱ)-complexes have a distorted octahedral and a tetrahedral structure, respectively.

The adsorbent for removal of heavy metal ions is prepared reutilizing the leached sludge generated in process of making the red mud coagulant we have develope. The pellet-type adsorbent is made by heat-treating a mixture of 10g of the leached sludge, 1g of kaolin, and 2 g of sodium silicate solution at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. In experiments of batch adsorption, the adsorbent shows good performance in adsorption of $Pb^{2+}$ ion.

The crystallization behavior and structural change of amorphous $PbTiO_{3}$ precursors prepared by coprecipitation method were investigated by XRD, Raman spectra, TEM, and RDF. The precursors were prepared at $45^{\circ}C$ and pH of 9 from a mixed solution of lead nitrate and titanium tetrachloride derived using $H_2O_2$ or $NH_4NO_3$ as an ion stabilizer. The activation energy and temperature for crystallization of the coprecipitate prepared using $NH_4NO_3$ as an ion stabilizer were lower than that derived from the solution containing $H_2O_2$ stabilizer. The amorphous coprecipitate transformed to transient phase and then to crystalline $PbTiO_{3}$. Average interatomic distances of amorphous states decreased with increasing heat-treatment temperature.

In this study, Mesoporous silica were prepared from hydrothermal synthesis using gel mixture of tetraethylorthosilcate (TEOS) as silica source and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTMABr) as a template. In the optimum synthesis cause, molar ratio of template and silica changed. The surface and structure properties of Mesoporous silica were determined by XRD, SEM, and BET. N$_2$ adsorption isotherm characteristics, including the specific surface area(S$_{BET}$), total pore volume(V$_T$), and average pore diameter(D$_{BJH}$), were determined by BET. Also, the adsorption character of Pb(II) and Cd(II) ion on Mesoporous silica were measured using ICP. As a result, a SBET of 100$\sim$1,500 m$^2$/g was determined from the N$_2$ adsorption isotherm. Also, the average pore diameter of 2$\sim$4 nm. The adsorption of Pb ion and Cd ion on Mesoporous silica become different depending on the pH of solution. The adsorption amount of Mesoporus silica had higher than that of silicagel.

In the addition condensation reaction of m-phenylenediamine(MPD) and resorcinol (RES) with formaldehyde, the suspension polymerization in liquid paraffin was performed and the bead polymers were obtained with good results. The polymers were treated with dilute aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions in order to improve the adsorption capacity to the metallic ions and the adsorptivity to the several metallic ions, such as $Cd^{2+},\;Pb^{2+},\;Al^{3+},\;Mg^{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;and\;Hg^{2+}$ of the alkali-treated and untreated polymers were tested. These MPD-RES-F type resins showed better adsorption capacity to the heavy metallic ions such as $Cd^{2+}\;and\;Hg^{2+}$ than the light metallic ions such as $Pb^{2+},\;Al^{3+}\;and\;Mg^{2+}$, and the treatment of the resins with about 20 percent aqueous sodium hydroxide solution showed significant improvement of the adsorption capacity to the metallic ions in all cases.

Heavy metal adsorption by microbial cells is an alternative to conventional methods of heavy metal removal and recovery from metal-bearing wastewater The waste Sac-chuomyces cerevisiae is an inexpensive, relatively available source of biomass for heavy metal biosorption. Biosorption was investigated by free and immobilized-S. cerevisiae. The order of biosorption capacity was Pb>Cu>Cd with batch system. The biosorption parameters had been determined for Pb with free , cells according to the Freundlich and Langmuir model. It was found that the data fitted reasonably well to the Freundlich model. The selective uptake of immobilized-S. cerevisiae was observed when all the metal ions were dissolved in a mixed metals solution(Pb, Cu, Cr and Cd). The biosorption of mixed metals solution by immobilized-cell was studied in packed bed reactor. The Pb uptake was Investigated in particular, as it represents one of the most widely distributed heavy metals in water. We also tested the desorption of Pb from immobilized-cell by us- ing HCI, $H_2SO_4$ and EDTA.

An anion exchange resin which has Alizarin Red S (ARS) as functional group was prepared by batch method. The resin is stable in acidic solutions below 0.5 M hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid and adsorption capacity of Fe(Ⅱ) ion on the resin was larger than other metal ions. The preconcentration and the separation of Fe(Ⅱ) ion from the mixture solution were carried out with the pH 4.5 buffer solution and 0.1 M $HNO_{3}$ as eluents.
