The identification of the stoneworts, euglenoids and diatoms which were collected from paddy rice fields was conducted in 1991. In the division Charophyta. Chara braunii Gmelin was identified. Two species in the genus Euglena, 1 species in the genus Phacus and 3 species in the genus Trachelomonas were identified in the division Eugrenophyta. The total number of species identified as the diatoms was 21 species in 6 families including 5 species in the Coscinodiscaceae, 3 species in the Fragilariaceae, 1 species in the Achanthaceae, 9 species in the Naviculaceae, 1 species in the Cymbellaceae and 2 species in the Nitzschiaceae. Generally, a concentrated population of Eulgena on paddy water caused green water blooms, but the color of the water blooms at the cyst formation stage was changed to red. In soil flakes with brown tint, the diatoms belonging to the order Pennales were numerous in microscopic view.

The purpose of this study is to improve coagulation efficiency by pre-treatment of high pH water using sulfuric acid. The common reason of pH increasing at down stream of Nakdong river is water blooming. The pH go above 9.0 during water blooming periods. The higher pH water demands more coagulant and pre-chlorine dosage than lower pH water for better coagulation condition. The DOC, THMFP, UV-254 after coagulation with the same coagulant dosage by pre-treatment from pH 9.2 down to 8.1 with sulfuric acid are 1.84mg/L, $51{\mu}g/L$ and $0.032cm^{-1}$, by pretreatment of chlorine are 2.09mg/L, $78{\mu}g/L$ and $0.030cm^{-1}$, by pre-treatment of sulfuric acid and chlorine are 2.14mg/L, $72{\mu}g/L$ and $0.031cm^{-1}$ respectively. Pretreatment with sulfuric acid can improve water quality and reduce coagulant demand.

원자력 발전소의 설계 수명이 늘어나고 기존의 가동 원전 또한 장기 운전을 목표로함에 따라, 원자로 압력용기, 가압기, 증기발생기, 배관 등의 주요 구조재료의 장기 열화에 따른 재료 건전성을 유지하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 특히, 응력부식균열 현상은 장기 열화에 의해 일어날수 있는 구조재료에서의 심각한 취화 문제들중의 하나로써, 이 현상을 예방하거나 지연시키기 위해서는 현상의 근본원인과 작동기구를 규명하는 것은 원전의 안전성 유지를 위해 매우 중요하다. 이를 위해서 구조재료 표면의 원전 운전 조건에서의 산화막 특성과 그 형성 거동을 분석하는 것은 매우 중요하게 되는데, 원전 운전 조건은 고온고압의 수화학 환경으로 일반 환경에서 사용가능한 다양한 분석 방법들을 적용하기에 많은 제약을 받게 된다. 그러나, 라만 분광법은 가동 원전의 운전 조건인 고온/고압수 환경 하에서도 실시간으로 산화막 분석이 가능한 기법으로, 본 논문에서는 지금까지의 라만 분광법을 이용하여 고온고압수 환경에서의 주요 구조용 금속 및 합금 표면에 생성된 산화막에 대한 분석 연구 결과에 대하여 소개하고, 앞으로 이를 이용한 구조재료의 열화 현상을 분석 및 열화기구 규명을 위한 연구개발 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

Diffusivity of ions of radioactive species is an important factor for designing radwaste repositories. Clay minerals are used as a backfill material. In this study, diffusion of Co-60 ions through the bentonite having various densities has been studied, using a diffusion cell. The measured diffusivities of Co-60 ions decreased as the density of bentonite increased. The diffusivity of Co-60 ion decreased from $8.79{\times}10^{11}m^2/s$ to $6.82{\times}10-13m^2/s$ as the clay dry bulk density increased from 0.41 to 2.03g/cm3. The diffusivity of Co ion was larger than that of Sr ion at low density, but the diffusivity of Co ion decreased rapidly as the density of clay increased and became smaller than that of Cs ion at high density. This phenomenon is thought to be caused by the rapid decrease of the fraction of mobile cation since the chemical combination of Co ions with oxygen or oxide on clay surface and the entrance of Co ions into the crystal structure of clay increase as the clay density increases. This change should be considered especially in designing the clay back fill for low and intermediate radwaste disposal facilities.

In this study, initial crack index was evaluated by FEM analysis to find the crack propagation from hydration heat in precast concrete. As results, as the usage of hardening accelerator increased, initial compressive strength increased and setting time was shortened. Additionally, as amounts of hardening accelerators increased, the central temperature of concrete increased and the time to reach the highest temperature was shortened. It was demonstrated that the hardening accelerators accelerated the hydration reaction of cement, and caused the increase of hydration heat within the short period of time. Furthermore, the crack index for evaluating the heat level was performed by FEM. As results, there was no problem about the cracks, despite of the growth of initial high hydration heat. This is because of the increased tensile strength that is large enough to sustain the thermally induced-stress.

Converter steel slag(BOF slag) is a vast amount of solid waste generated in the steelmaking process which has very low utilization rate in Korea. Due to the presence of free CaO which can derive bad volume stability in BOF slag, it usually land filled. For recycling BOF and identify its applicability as fine aggregate, this study investigates the fundamental characteristics of mortar with cement replaced ferronickel slag(FNS), which has the potential to be used as a binder. The results suggest that the mineral phases of BOF slag mainly include larnite(CaSiO₄), mayenite(Ca₁₂Al₁₄O₃₃) and wuestite(FeO) while olivine crystallines are shown in FNS. The results of flow and setting time reveals that the flowability and process of hardening increased when the amount of FNS and BOF slag incorporated was increased. The length change shows that the amount of change in the length of the mortar was almost constant regardless of mix proportion while compressive strength was reduced. Micro structure test results revealed that FNS or/and BOF slag mix took a long time to react in the cement matrix to form a complete hydration products. To achieve the efficient utilization of B OF slag as construction materials, proper replacement rate is necessary.

It is well known that cracks in concrete decrease permeability and durability of concrete because cracks enhance the penetration of water or corrosive chemicals like as chlorides, carbon dioxides, sulfates and some others. But some of cracks in hardened cements may be sealed in case of contacting water. This phenomenon is called "self healing" and it has a close relation to hydration products newly formed on surfaces of cracks. Many studies on self healing in concretes commonly showed that CSH gel has been observed on crack surfaces. And some studies have reported that calcium hydroxides and ettringite were observed as well as CSH gel on crack surfaces. This study was carried out to investigate hydration products formed by self healing process and also examine the influence of waterproof admixture for concretes on self healing of cement. As a result of XRD, DSC, SEM and EDX analysis of crack surfaces, it was found that self healing of cement was related to CSH gel, calcium hydroxides and ettringite. And waterproof admixture increased fibrous (needle-like) hydration products which were in network form. It is estimated that such fibrous products are effective for self healing process of cement system.

최근 해안환경하에 있는 콘크리트구조물의 철근부식은 구조물의 내구성 저하 및 유지관리라는 차원에서 커다란 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이와 같은 현상은 해양구조물의 건설이 날로 증가하고 있고, 또 콘크리트 제조시 잔골재의 일부를 염분이 함유된 해사를 사용함으로써 더욱 심각해지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 표면으로부터 침투해 들어오는 침입염분의 거동을 모델화하였으며, 콘크리트 세공속의 수용액상에 있은 염화물이온의 확산을 포함하는 물리 화학적 진행, 시멘트 수화물에 고정되는 염분의 흡착과 탈착 및 고정염과의 화학반응 등의 현상을 유한요소법에 의해 해석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 콘크리트 내부의 철근 발청시기의 예측, 해안환경하에 있는 콘크리트 구조물의 침투 염분에 의한 콘크리트 덮개의 결정, 콘크리트 구조물의 염화물이온의 허용치 설정을 비롯하여 내구년수를 예측하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The heat-storage characteristics accompanied by exothermic reaction at the regeneration of $Ca(OH)_2$ in tile heat-storage mode of a chemical heat pump system using a $Ca(OH)_2/CaO$ reversible thermochemical reaction was examined in a lab-scale unit. In this heat-storage mode, the particle bed of CaO could be regenerated by heating the $Ca(OH)_2$ packed bed to the higher temperature at which the equilibrium pressure in the reactor is greater than the water vapor pressure in the condenser. The results are i) the dehydration, thermal decomposition, rate of $Ca(OH)_2$ was higher at the lower part of particle bed than at the upper part, ii) in the reactor, the dehydration was proceeded along radial and axial direction, from inner part to the outer part, which explains heat transfers from the center to wall and from the tenter to lower or upper part of reactor.

The strength of concrete is developed by cement hydration reaction influenced by the circumferential temperatures. In this study, therefore, the experiments are conducted and evaluated about the characteristics as changes of early concrete placing temperature and curing temperature to understand the effects of the temperature which influences concrete properties. The results of the experiments changing the early concrete placing temperature in 5$^{\circ}C$ and 10$^{\circ}C$ are followed. In case of conducting standard concrete curing, early compressive strength development rate of the concrete which had low placing temperature was low, but it was shown that early compressive strength development rate was not affected by low placing temperature in age 28 days of concrete. In case of conducting outdoor curing in winter, early compressive strength development rate of the concrete which had high placing temperature was high in all test specimens. As a results, early compressive strength development of concrete was influenced by temperature of early concrete, but after aging 28 days of concrete, it was influenced by curing temperature rather than temperature of early concrete.
