It is for the purpose of investigating the tritium distribution in the leachates, the raw and treated leachates and the condensates of the methane gas, which have occurred from domestic solid waste landfills. Also it aims to measure the tritium distribution level on the colloid size of the leachates, the raw and treated leachates. It was found that the major inorganic contaminants of the leachates were Na, K, Ca, Mg, $NH{_4}^+$-N and $Cl^-$. The mean tritium level of the raw leachates of the investigated 13 landfill sites for 6 months was 17 ~ 1196 TU. It corresponded to a several scores or hundreds of magnitude higher value than that of the normal environmental sample level except for two landfill sites. Also such a high concentration of the tritium was found in the treated leachates and methane gas condensates as well. Nevertheless it is important to emphasize that the tritium level which was found in this research is about 100 times lower than the tritium limit for the drinking water quality. And most of the tritium existed in the dissolved colloid of the leachate of which the colloid size is below $0.45{\mu}m$. Also, according to the tritium analysis results of the leachates after filtration with $0.45{\mu}m$ membrane filter for some landfills, it is likely that some tritium of the leachate would be distributed in a colloid size over $0.45{\mu}m$. In general the relationship between the tritium and other contaminants in the raw leachate was low, but it was relatively high between the tritium and TOC. However, the tritium content in the leachate had no meaningful relationship with the scale, hydrological characteristics and age of the landfill.

극한환경을 구성하는 중요한 환경인자는 온도, 수소이온농도, 염도, 압력, 물, 영양물질 등이 있는데 본 총설에서는 그동안 비교적 많이 다루어지지 않았던 알칼리성환경, 건조환경, 저영양환경, 심해환경과 같은 극한환경과 아울러 특수환경인 해양환경, 지하환경 등으로 나누어 설명했다. 고염환경과 고영양환경, 혐기성환경은 다른 저자에 의해 자세히 다루어지고 고온환경, 산성환경, 극지환경 등은 지면상 이유로 제외했다.

Smelting reduction of spent lithium-ion batteries results in the production of metallic alloys in which reduced cobalt, nickel and copper coexist. In this study, we investigated the leaching of the metallic alloys containing the above three metals together with iron, manganese, and silicon. The mixture of hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent was employed, and the effect of the concentration thereof, the reaction time and temperature, and pulp density was investigated to accomplish the complete leaching of cobalt, nickel, and copper. The effect of the hydrogen peroxide concentration and pulp density on the leaching was prominent, compared to that of reaction time and temperature, especially in the range of 20 to 80℃. The complete leaching of the metals present in metallic alloys, except silicon, was accomplished using 2 M HCl and 5% H₂O₂ with a pulp density of 30 g/L for 150 min at 60℃.

바이오 가스 플랜트의 혐기소화 공정에서 발생하는 바이오 가스는 중 유해가스인 황하수소($H_2S$)는 부식성 가스로 수천 PPM농도를 함유하여, 발전기나 가스보일러로 이용하는 경우에는 $H_2S$를 제거하는 탈황공정이 반드시 필요하다. 탈황방식에는 산화철 탈황(건식 탈황)과 생물 탈황이 현재 많이 사용되고 있어나 산화철 탈황은 산화철 pellet이 유화철에 변화하면 탈황능력이 저하되어 pellet을 교환해야 하며 많은 비용이 발생한다. 생물 탈황 방식은 유황산화세균의 서식활동조건(온도, 반응시간, 산소량)확보가 반드시 필요하여 높은 운전기술을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 바이오가스 전처리 기술 중 활성탄 또는 약액을 이용한 기존의 탈황정제방식보다 흡착성능이 뛰어난 이온교환섬유를 이용하여, 황화수소($H_2S$)를 95% 이상 제거할 수 있는 고효율 섬유상 이온촉매 악취제거 시스템 개발을 수행하였다. 이온교환섬유는 방사선 조사를 이용하여 부직포에 라디칼을 인위적으로 형성시켜(그라프트 중합) 양이온 또는 양이온을 교환할 수 있도록 제조된 섬유상의 흡착제로, 이온교환 섬유의 화학적 이온교환과 물리적 흡착 및 탈착반응이 동시에 발생되고, 활성탄/실리카켈 보다 흡착능력이 2~4배 높다. 또한 이온섬유의 재생기능을 이용하여 장기적 다양한 악취($H_2S$, $NH_3$, 아민계, 메르갑탄류, 알데히드 등) 및 유해가스(VOCs, NOx, SOx) 등을 95% 이상 제거할 수 있다.

The addition of one mole of zinc chloride to 2.33 moles of sodium borohydride in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature gave a clear chloride-free supernatant solution of zinc borohydride after stirring three days and standing at room temperature.The approximate rates and stoichiometry of the reaction of zinc borohydride with 54 selected organic compounds were determined in order to test the utility of the reagent as a selective reducing agent. Aldehydes and ketones were reduced rapidly, aromatic ketones being somewhat slowly, and the double bond of cinnamaldehyde was not attacked. Acyl halides were reduced rapidly within one hour, but acid anhydrides were reduced at a moderate rate. Carboxylic acids, both aliphatic and aromatic, were slowly reduced to alcoholic stage. Esters were inert to this reagent but a cyclic ester, γ-butyrolactone, was slowly attacked. Primary amides were reduced slowly with partial evolution of hydrogen, whereas tertiary amides underwent neither reduction nor hydrogen evolution. Epoxides and nitriles were all inert, as well as nitro, azo, and azoxy compounds. Cyclohexanone oxime and phenyl isocyanate were reduced slowly but pyridine was inert. Disulfide, sulfoxide, sulfone and sulfonic acids were stable to this reagent.

A Method to determine Cr(III)ion in aqueous solution by chemiluminescence method using a stopped flow system has been studied. The method is based on the increased chemiluminescence intensity with the addition of Cr(III) to a solution of lucigenin a nd hyrogen peroxide. The effects of pH, injection volumes of reagent and sample, and concentration of lucigenin and hyrogen peroxide on the chemiluminescence intensity have been investigated. The calibration curve for Cr(III) ion was linear over the range from 1.0${\times}$$10^{-6}$ to 1.0${\times}$$10^{-3}$M and the detection limit was 5.2${\times}$$10^{-8}$M under the optimal experimental condition of 437nm, 12.8,and 1.0${\times}$$10^{-6}$ and 2.0M for emission wavelength, pH, and concentration of lucigenin and hyrogen peroxide, respectively.

This work demonstrates the preparation of proton conducting crosslinked polymer electrolyte membranes by blending polystrene-b-poly(hydroxyethyl acrylate) (PS-b-PHEA) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) at 1 : 1 wt ratio. The PHEA block of the diblock copolymer was crosslinked with PVA using sulfosuccinic acid (SA) via the esterification reaction between -OH of membrane and -COOH of SA, as confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. Ion exchange capacity (IEC) continuously increased from 0.14 to 0.91 meq/g with increasing concentrations of SA, due to the increasing portion of charged groups in the membrane. In contrast, the water uptake increased up to 20.0 wt% of SA concentration above which it decreased monotonically. The membrane also exhibited a maximum proton conductivity of 0.024 S/cm at 20.0 wt% of SA concentration. The maximum behavior of water uptake and proton conductivity is considered to be due to competitive effect between the increase of ionic sites and the crosslinking reaction according to the SA concentration.

The removal of zinc (II) from aqueous solutions has been studied by the adsorptive bubble separation processes such as solvent sublation and foam fractionation processes using capric acid as collector. The efficiency of the remoal process has been studied by changing the ionic strength and pH and the bubble separation method has been compared with the solvent extraction process using the capric acid dissolved in benzene as extractant.
