상대적으로 이산화탄소 배출량이 적으며, 기존의 천연가스를 대체할 수 있고, 21세기 신 에너지원으로 기대되고 있는 메탄 하이드레이트(Methane hydrate)는 태평양과 대서양의 대륙사면 및 대륙붕, 남극대륙의 주변해역 등지에서 자연적으로 발생한 메탄 하이드레이트의 분포가 확인되었으며, 그 매장량의 1조 탄소톤 이상으로 기존 화석연료의 매장량이 5천억 탄소톤, 대기중의 메탄가스가 3억 6천만 탄소톤임을 고려할 때 2배에 이르는 막대한 양이라고 보고하였다. 따라서 메탄 하이드레이트는 화석에너지를 대체할 수 있는 차세대 청정 에너지 또는 대체 에너지원으로서의 무한한 잠재력을 가지고 있어 새로운 에너지분야로 크게 주목을 받고 있다. 또한 하이드레이트는 $172m^3$의 메탄가스와 $0.8m^3$의 물로 분해된다. 만약, 특성을 역으로 이용하여 산업적으로 고체화 수송을 할 경우 화수송보다 18-24%의 비용절감이 이루어질 것으로 예상되어진다. 그러나 메탄 하이드레이트를 인공적으로 만들경우 물과 가스의 반응율이 낮아 하이드레이트 형성시간이 상당히 길고 가스 충진율도 낮다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 하이드레이트를 빨리 만들며 가스 충진율도 증가시키기 위하여 증류수와 다공성물질이며 나노세공(Nano pore)을 가지고 있는 제올라이트를 증류수에 첨가하고, 초음파 분산하여 만든 혼합유체를 메탄가스와 반응시켜 하이드레이트 형성 실험을 수행하여 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 0.01 wt% 제올라이트 혼합유체에서 증류수보다 하이드레이트가 훨씬 빨리 생성되었으며, 메탄가스소모량은 ${\Delta}T_{subc}$=0.5K에서 약 4배 높음을 보였다.

For the recycling of rapid-chilled steel slag, the mechanical strengths and physical properties of EVA-polymer modified mortars with the various replacement ratios of rapid-chilled steel slag were investigated. Twenty five specimens of polymer modified mortars were prepared with the five different amounts of EVA-polymer modifier (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 wt%) and rapid-chilled steel slag (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 wt%). For the investigation of the characteristics of polymer modified mortars, the measurements such as water-cement ratio, unit volume weight, air content for fresh mortar and compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, hot water resistance, porosity and SEM investigation for curing specimens were conducted. As a results, with an increase in the replacement ratio of rapid-chilled steel slag, water-cement ratios decreased but unit volume weight increased remarkably. With increasing EVA-polymer modifier and the replacement ratio of rapid-chilled steel slag, percent of water absorption decreased but compressive and flexural strengths increased remarkably. By the hot water resistance test, mechanical strengths decreased but total pore volume and porosity increased remarkably. In the SEM observation, the components of specimen were shown to stick to each other in the form of co-matrix phase before hot water resistance test, but polymer modifier of co-matrix phase was decomposed or deteriorated after hot water resistance test.

For the cost down of polymer concrete, It is very important to reduce the use amount of polymer binder, which occupies most of the production cost of polymer concrete. Fly ash and atomizing reduction steel slag are spherical materials obtained from industrial by-products. Spherical atomizing reduction steel slag was manufactured using steel slag from reduction process of ladle furnace by atomizing technology. To investigate the physical properties of polymer concrete, polymer concrete specimens were prepared with the various proportions of polymer binder and replacement ratios of atomizing steel slag. Results showed that compressive and flexural strengths of the specimens were remarkably increased with the addition amount of polymer binder and the replacement ratios of atomizing steel slag. In the hot water resistance test, compressive strength, flexural strength, bulk density and average pore diameter decreased but total pore volume and pore diameter increased. We found that polymer concrete developed in this study reduced the amount of polymer binder by 18.2% compared to the conventional product because of the remarkable improvement of workability of polymer concrete using spherical fly ash and atomizing reduction steel slag instead of calcium carbonate (filler) and river sand (fine aggregate).

The heat treatment of PVC film containing PVC 65ft, DOP (Dioctyl Phthalate) 32% as plasticizer, Ca-Zn stearates and sur-face agent was performed under several conditions to study the dehydrochlorination of PVC and char production. In the case of $H_2$ $SO_4$, the dehydrochlorination was ca.100% at $250^{\circ}C$ for 3h. The char involving the smaller pores was produced with hydro-thermal treatment. The pore size became small with increasing the treatment time and temperature. In the case of treatment with $Ca(OH)_2$, the sizes of pores produced in char were about sever ~10 $\mu\textrm{m}$ at$ 225^{\circ}C$ for 12h. In the case of $_2$$SO_4$, the size of pores were about 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ in 5M $_H2$$SO_4$for 12h.

To clarify the effect of forest environmental changes (forest type difference and clearcut) on water storage capacity in soil and stream flow, watershed had been investigated in Pyungchang, Kangwon-Do during 1983∼1993. Hydrological datas such as runoff, monthly ratio of runoff to precipitation, runoff-duration, monthly runoff(by plenty, ordinary, low and scanty duration), total runoff, direct runoff by runoff components, bulk density, porosity, coarse pore, fine pore, permeability and effective water storage were obtained from Backokpo and Yimokjong watersheds. The monthly ratio of runoff to precipitation, runoff and runoff-duration were higher in Yimokiong than in Backokpo due to forest type difference. On compararing pre-treatment with trement period in two experimental watersheds, pre-treatment period was lower than treatment period. Physical properties of soil such as bulk density, porosity, permeability, and effective water storage capacity conditions were better during the pre-trement period than treatment period in the two experiment plots.

Restraining cracks on concrete structures can be the basic condition to improve the durability, so in this research, the resistibility on the drying shrinkage of concrete structures in the long period was being confirmed and as the reason of this shrinkage, the density of minute textures was being analyzed using a wooden prototype of a full scale produced with ready-mixed concrete and agents of glycol which can be used as a surfactant. As result of those tests, PFB technology can reduce the drying shrinkage by approximately $-100{\sim}200{\times}10^{-6}$ on a wooden prototype of a full scale and can also reduce the pore volume as the obstruction to the movement of gas or liquid by approximately $2.4{\sim}3.5$% so that PFB technology can be used to assure the resistibility on the drying shrinkage.

Reverse electrodialysis (RED) is one of the promising eco-friendly renewable energy technologies which can generate electricity from the concentration difference between seawater and freshwater by using ion-exchange membranes as a diaphragm. The ion-exchange membrane is a key component that determines the performance of RED, and must satisfy requirements such as low electrical resistance, high permselectivity, excellent durability, and low manufacturing cost. In this study, pore-filled anion-exchange membranes were fabricated using porous polymer substrates having various thicknesses and porosity, and the effects of ion-exchange polymer composition and membrane thickness on the power generation performance of RED were investigated. When the electrical resistance of the ion-exchange membrane is sufficiently low, it can be confirmed that the RED power generation performance is mainly influenced by the apparent permselectivity of the membrane. In addition, it was confirmed that the apparent permselectivity of the membranes can be improved through IEC, crosslinking degree, membrane thickness, surface modification, etc., and the optimum condition must be found in consideration of the trade-off relationship with electrical resistance.

In this study the migration experiment using packed column with crushed tuff was conducted as a basic research to develop migration model of radionuclides through geologic media. The main emphasis was put on evaluating the validity of migration models. For this, two models were introduced: one is the model which is based on the assumption of instantaneous equilibrium reaction and the other the model based on kinetic process such as intraparticle diffusion. The coefficient of hydrodynamic dispersion in packed column was determined using iodine as nonsorbing tracer. The hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient, D$_{L}$ was shown to be 0.11$\times$10$^{-2}$ $\textrm{cm}^2$/min under the condition of the column porosity of 0.483 and the average water velocity of 0.915$\times$10$^{-2}$ cm/min. The distribution coefficient, Kd of Cs-137 on crushed tuff was 11.3 cc/g at the concentration of 2$\times$10$^{-6}$ M and the temperature of 2$0^{\circ}C$. The breakthrough curve of Cs-137 through packed column was shown to have an asymmetric curve in which long trailing tail appears at the end part of the curve. The results obtained from the comparison of introduced models with experimental data indicated that the mass transfer model with intraparticle diffusion as rate-controlling step simulated the behaviors of Cs-137 migration more adequately, when compared with the bulk reaction model in which the assumption of instantaneous equilibrium reaction was maded. Consequently, the intraparticle diffusion was found to be an important factor in the migration of Cs-137 through packed column.n.

Nowadays, recycling of aggregates from the waste concrete is in big demand due to the protection of environment and the shortage of aggregates that are needed for ever expanding construction projects. This study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of recycling waste concrete powder produced in the crushing process of demolished concrete as a filler material for polymer mortar. In this study, polymer mortar specimens were prepared by varying the mix proportion of polymer binder (ranging 9~15 wt%), waste concrete powder (ranging 0~20 wt%) substituted for silica powder, 0.1~0.3 mm fine aggregate (ranging 21~24 wt%) and 0.7~1.2 mm fine aggregate (ranging 44~47 wt%). For the prepared polymer mortar specimens, various physical properties such as strength, water absorption, heat water resistance, acid resistance, pore distribution and SEM observation were investigated in this work. As a result, physical properties of polymer mortar were observed to have remarkably improved with an increase of polymer binder, but greatly deteriorated with an increase of substitution quantity of waste concrete powder.

Nowadays, recycling of recycled aggregates from the waste concrete is seriously demanded for the protection of environment and the shortage of aggregates owing to the large scale construction project. In this study, for the development of polymer composite recycling recycled aggregates from the waste concrete, twenty five specimens of the polymer composite were prepared with the five levels of replacement ratios of recycled aggregates (0, 25, 50, 75, 100%) and polymer-cement ratios (0,5, 10, 15, 20%), respectively. For the evaluation of the performance of polymer composite specimens, various physical properties such as compressive and flexural strengths, water absorption, hot water resistance, total pore volume and porosity were investigated. As a result, physical properties of polymer composite were remarkably improved with an increase of polymer cement ratios, but greatly decreased with the replacement ratios of recycled aggregates.
