Although slag has an enough potential as the secondary resources due to its high content of iron, quite a large amount of slags are simply landfilled when market prices of iron and steel are not so beneficial. The purpose of this study is to investigate the basic characteristics regarding the recovery of iron content from slag by magnetic separation method for the enhancement of its recycling rate. Three kinds of slags such as blast furnace slag, water-cooled converter slag, and air-cooled converter slag were tested taking the strength of magnetic field, revolving speed of drum, and feeding rate of slag as the influential factors on the magnetic separation. For blast furnace slag, the recovery of iron was observed to increase as drum speed and feeding rate were lowered. For water-cooled converter slag, iron recovery was raised as feeding rate was increased and drum speed was lowered. Also, finer slag particles were observed to be more favorable for the higher recovery of iron content. Regarding air-cooled converter slags, higher iron recovery was accomplished when both feeding rate and drum speed were increased or decreased. In addition, when the magnetic field strength was increased the iron recovery was raised, however, the iron grade of separated product was observed to diminish because of the co-separation of impurities.

This study aims at evaluating environmental impacts on recycling process of used small household appliances. The recycling process mainly consists of manual dismantling, crushing and various sorting processes to effectively recover valuable resources and to minimize environmental impact. In this study, life-cycle assessment (LCA) methodology is applied to analyze major environmental parameters such as GWP, ADP, POCP, EP, etc. One of the major impact categories on the weight basis in the recycling process is global warming (GWP) 57.1%, next to ADP 35.4% and POCP 4.8%, respectively. As a result of environmental impact on recovery of valuable resources/ton, the GWP of plastics for ABS is highest (33.7%) compared to ferrous metals (9.4%). The effects of environmental and economical benefit are also analyzed to compare with the amount of virgin materials to be recycled by recycled materials. In addition, recycled materials are also more economical in comparison to virgin materials due to the environmental avoiding effect by recycling. In conclusion, the key environmental issues related to the recycling of e-wastes are analyzed and therefore, the effective recycling process will contribute to mitigate global warming potential in the near future.

This study was conducted to find a way to reduce the production of cakes generated in the domestic aggregate production process. Cakes from 8 wet aggregate producers were collected and particle size was analyzed. Samples were collected step by step from an aggregate producer A, particle size analysis was performed, and the material balance was calculated before and after an sand recovery unit by modeling the production process. As a result of the particle size analysis of eight cakes, one sample contained 50% sand, and the rest contained about 5% to 25% sand. The results showing that the cake contained a variety of sand in cakes may indicate that the recovery efficiency of the sand recovery units in the field varied. Sieve analysis of the samples showed that the generation of sand particles increased 2.8 times during the third crushing compared to the second crushing, and more cake particles were generated. As a result of simulating the sand recovery unit model, the lower the cut point of the cyclone and dewatering screen, the higher the sand production and the less cake production appeared. In order to reduce the production of cake in the field, it was determined that an optimal operation of the sand recovery unit was necessary in the aggregate production process.

Tile pl~ysimchemical properties of residual or unburned carbon obtaincd from fly ash were mestigated. The carbon-enrichcd samples were extracted from fly ash by flotalion mcthod. Tnz carbon content and chemical compos~lion of t b recovered carbon sample were analyzed. The ash in the carbon sample was also examined. The unburned carbon characterization included measurement oE sire distibution, sudace area, crystal shuchlre md density.

This papcr covcrs ihe recovery process of aluminum coagulant by acidic exlraclion which can develop the dewaterability'of residual sludge solids and ihc reduclion ot sludge valumc and mass. Simultmeously, variables affecting acidic extaction of aluminum arc discussed It is represented that the characteristics of recovcrcd coagulant is assessed mth rcspcct to aluminum content. coagulalion effeaiveness, and trace contaminants. The treatment methods of residual sludge solid following acidic extraction arc also d~scussed. Fillally, we suggest some cases in which the results from laboratory can he applied to the fullscale operation and future domestic mosoect of it.

In the process of manufacturing acrylonitrile, azeotrope of water-acetonitrile is formed as by-product. To1uene-ethylacetate mixture was selected as solvent to determine the liquid-liquid equilibria for to1uene(l)-water(2)-acetomtrile(3)-ethyjacetate(4) system. The experimental he-line data were correlated with the UNIFAC model. The distribution and selectivity for quaternary system was also studied.
