Domestic gold mine tailings, generally, contain a lot of non-metallic silica and clay minerals. These minerals can be separated from the tailings by various physical separation methods and used as raw materials for cements and ceramic products. In these physical separation procedures, metallic complex sulfides, in which Au and metallic constituents such as Pb, As and Fe were concentrated, were obtained as a by-product. These metallic constituents should be removed or separated from the by-product to extract Au efficiently. In this work, removal and separation processes of Pb, As, and Fe from the by-product were investigated. Pb was removed to under 3% by using alkaline oxidative leaching at the leaching condition of $120^{\circ}C$, 2M NaOH, 100psi $Po_2$, 250r.p.m., 4 wt.% solid and 30 min. leaching time. The leached residue was roasted and separated magnetically to obtain a non-magnetic product contained <0.2% As, <3% Fe and high concentrated Au more than 8,000 ppm.

Volatile compounds were collected by simultaneous distillation extraction and carbon dioxide method, and analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The neutral fraction obtained from the whole steam volatile concentrate 55 kinds of components, phenolic fraction had 4 kinds of components, basic fraction had 13 kinds of components and 10 kinds of components were in acidic fraction. Alcohols, propanols, butanols, octanols, dodecanols etc. and aldehydes, pentanals, hexanal, 2-methyl-1-propanal, heptenal etc. were highly increased after boiled and roasted. And these compounds were contributed to formation of filefish flavor. The molecular ion peak of phenolic fraction was generally appeared in the range 100 to about 160. From the basic fraction, 2-methylpyrazine, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-3,5-di-methylpyrazine and 2-methylpyridine were identified. The contents of basic compounds and furans obtained from the neutral fraction were increased at the higher heating temperature. The flavor of acidic fraction was influenced by the low molecular as isovaleric and valeric acid.

The demand for rhenium has considerably increased recently owing to the large-scale consumption in industries and the price of rhenium has increased owing to the lack of supply and its availability. The dust from the roasting of molybdenite was employed to investigate the leaching behavior of rhenium and molybdenum. Leaching experiments were done by varying optimum parameters, such as reaction time, NaOH concentration and leaching temperature. The optimum leaching condition was found to be $4\;mol{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NaOH, 2 hours leaching time, $100\;g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ solid/liquid ratio, $80^{\circ}C$ temperature, and 250 rpm. At this condition, leaching percentage of rhenium and molybdenum was 86.1% and 88.6%, respectively.

In present study an attempt has been made to extract the high purity $Al_2O_3$from domestic aluminous shale. The processes of the salt roasting with ammonium sulfate, extraction with sulfuric acid and calcination were adopted. In the extraction of alumina, the effects of the sulfuric acid concentration, the reaction time and the temperature has been investigated. The reaction products were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, DTA-TG, chemical analysis and SEM. The results are summerized as follows: 1)The pretreatment conditions were 0.6M-$(NH_4)_2SO_4$and $650^{\circ}C$ in sintering temperature. 2) The optimum extraction conditions were $10%-H_2SO_4$ and 240 minutes in acid treating time. 3)Physical properties of sintering materials were confirmed as $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ by X-ray diffraction method and the purity of $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ was 99.23%.

Among dusts which were generated in AOD process producing a medium-low carbon ferromanganese, the dust collected in bag filter contained manganese about 63% and its phase was $Mn_3$$O_4$. the maximum extraction of Mn by nitric acid is about 67% because of remaining amorphous $MnO_2$. Therefore this research investigated reducibility of the activated charcoal in Mn extraction from the dust. Addition of charcoal over 10% of pulp density made possible Mn extraction of 90% at $70^{\circ}C$, 0.5N $HNO_3$. To convert $Mn_3$$O_4$ to MnO by reducing roasting, the minimum mixture ratio of activated charcoal was 5% in $750^{\circ}C$, 1 hour. Extraction of Mn from the reduced dust was over 99% with nitric acid at $25^{\circ}C$, 6N $HNO_3$, pulp density 150 g/l§.

Recycling of aluminum dross is an important issue in the secondary aluminum industries. In this study, aluminum dross generated in the domestic secondary aluminum industry was processed to use it as raw material for producing alumina refractories. Sample dross was classified according to its size. The dross smaller than 1 mm was leached with sodium hydroxide solution to extract the remained aluminum from the dross into the solution. and then aluminum hydroxide precipitate was recovered from the leach liquor. The waste residue in the leaching was washed, dried and roasted. Most remained metallic components in the residue was changed into oxide through the processes. The roasted dross was made into alumina castable refractories by mixing with aggregates and a binder. Bending strength of the tested castable specimen was over $25\;kg/\textrm{m}^2$ and compressive strength over $80\;kg/\textrm{cm}^2$, which satisfied the Korean Standard value respectively. From the results, it was suggested that this process could be applicable to recycling of aluminum dross.

The lithium-ion battery recycling process has been classified into direct recycling, hydrometallurgical process, and pyrometallurgical process. The commercial process based on the hydrometallurgical process produces black mass through pretreatment processes consisting of dismantling, crushing and grinding, heat treatment, and beneficiation, and then each metal is recovered by hydrometallurgical processes. Since all lithium-ion battery recycling processes under development conducts hydrometallurgical processes such as leaching, after the pretreatment process, to produce precursor raw materials, this article suggests a classification method according to the pretreatment method of the recycling process. The processes contain sulfation roasting, carbothermic reduction roasting, and alloy manufacturing, and the economic feasibility of the lithium-ion battery recycling process can be enhanced using unused by-products in the pretreatment process.

Quality stability of dried lavers during roasting and storage was investigated by measuring the changes of pigment contents including chlorophyll a, carotenoids and biliproteins, the content of trypsin indigestible substrates(TIS), in vitro apparent protein digestibility, and dietary fiber. In heat treatment or roasting of dried laver, carotenoids and chlorophyll a were found to be more stable than biliproteins. Chlorophyll a and carotenoids were retained more than $85\%$ during roasting for 1 hour at $120^{\circ}C$ while biliproteins were retained only $10\%$ at the same temperature. The in vitro digestility of dried layers tended to increase with raising the roasting temperature. The in vitro digestibility of $85\%$ for the roasted laver at $100^{\circ}C$ was higher than that observed in the control of $80\%$. There was a correlation between the decrease in TIS and biliproteins as the laver was roasted. The soulble dietary fiber(SDF) content was substantially increased by heat treatment. The extent of protein digestiblility appeared to be related to the increase of SDF content. In the storage of roasted lavers under both water activities 0.1 and 0.65, the loss of the pigments and TlS were markedly retarded at Aw 0.1. Chlorophyll a was retained about $20\%$ at aw 0.65 and $75\%$ at aw 0.1 after 20 week sto-rage. At worst, more than $90\%$ of the carotenoids were lost at aw 0.65 after 20 week, while biliproteins were comparatively stable at the same water activity. TIS decreased about $15\%$ and in vitro apparent protein digestibility increased up to $92\%$ at aw 0.65 during storage.

The stability of slurry and removal rate during recycling of colloidal silica slurry was evaluated in silicon wafer polishing. The particle size distribution, pH, and zeta potential were measured to investigate the stability of colloidal silica. Large particles appeared as recycling time increased while average size of slurry did not change. Large particles were identified by EDS(energy dispersive spectrometer) as foreign substances from pad or abraded silicon flakes during polishing. As the recycling time increased, pH of slurry decreased and removal rate of silicon reduced but zeta potential decreased inversely. Hence, it could be mentioned that decrease of removal rate is related to consumption of $OH^-$ ions during recycling. Attention should be given to the control of pH of slurry during polishing.

결정질 실리콘 태양전지에서 전극 형성 공정은 Voc(Open-circuit voltage), Isc(Short-circuit current), Rser(Series resistance), Rshunt(Shunt resistance), FF(Fill factor) 특성에 영향을 주기 때문에 매우 중요하다. 하지만 paste와 선 공정에서의 조건에 따라 특성이 바뀌기 때문에 소성 공정을 최적화하기는 쉽지 않다. 본 연구에서는 Gravure Off-set printing 방식을 이용하여 결정질 실리콘 기판 표면에 미세 전극 형성 공정을 하고 소성 조건 최적화를 위해 peak 온도와 ramp-up 속도를 변화시켜 각 조건별 특성을 비교하였다. Peak 온도가 커질수록, contact resistance의 감소에 따라 Rser가 줄어들었다. 본 연구를 통해 Voc는 619mV, FF는 77.9%로 측정되는 Gravure Off-set 태양전지에 최적화된 소성 공정 조건을 확보하였다.
