We analyze geological, petrophysical and geomechanical characteristics of a $CO_2$ sequestration test site, Pohang. The target reservoir exists at a depth of 750 m, where porous and permeable sandstones/conglomerates prevail. The reservoir is underlain by thick mudstone formations. We estimate in situ stress conditions using an exploratory wellbore drilled through the target reservoir. The in situ stress condition is characterized by a strike-slip faulting favored stress regime. We discuss various aspects of reservoir fracture pressures and fault reactivation pressures based on the stress magnitudes.

The sensory properties and the change of lipid content of cooked rice were investigated to evaluate the effects of cooker (electric and pressure cooker) and variety ($Japonica and Indica\timesJaponica variety$). Overall preference of cooked rices were higher in the pressure cooker than the electric cooker. In the case of electric cooker, Japonica variety was prefered than $I\timesJ$ variety. Free lipid contents were reduced and bound lipid contents were increased after cooking. The bound lipid contents had a correlation with shiness of cooked rice(r=-0.69).

The study of pancreatin extraction was investigated by supercritical fluid process. Using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction with entrainer the purification of pancreatin was possible to remove lipids from Hog pancreas. To observe the optimum conditions different experimental variables were changed as pressure, temperature, flow rate of solvent and 0.25 mm of sample size were evaluated for effective removal of lipids. Ethanol and n-hexane were used as an entrainer with 5 mL/min. Increasing pressure at constant temperature the efficiency of the lipid removal in Hog pancreas was improved and the protein was concentrated without denaturalization, compared that of the control Hog pancreas. The most efficient conditions of lipid elimination were 17 MPa of pressure and 35$^{\circ}C$ of temperature and 0.25 mm of sample size.

Bottom-up multi-stage pressure grouting is widely applied to domestic slopes and tunnels. It involves injecting earth from the ground to the surface after drilling. Various reports of construction performance have demonstrated its wide applicability. However, little research has studied top-down multi-step pressure grouting in Korea, which involves injection from the surface. This paper compares the grouting effect of both the established bottom-up method and the top-down method in soil box and field tests. The soil box test showed that the bulb volume of the top-down method is ~24% less than that of the bottom-up method. The field test confirmed that the top-down method has a wider grouting range and a higher injection density per area than the bottom-up method.

Azurite ($Cu_3(CO_3)_2(OH)_2$) was compressed up to 21.52 GPa for its behaviors at ambient temperature. High pressure experiment was performed using the symmetrical diamond anvil cell employed in the angle dispersive X-ray diffraction method. Pressure was determined by ruby fluorescence calibration method. No phase transitions were observed within the present pressure limit and bulk modulus was determined to be 54.4 GPa when ${K_0}^{\prime}$ is fixed to be 4. Applying the normalized pressure-strain analysis, reliability of the azurite compression pattern was checked.

Powder samples of natural lawsonite (Ca-lawsonite, $CaAl_2Si_2O_7(OH)_2{\cdot}H_2O$) was studied structurally up to 8 GPa at room temperature using monochromatic synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction and a diamond anvil cell (DAC) with a methanol : ethanol : water (16 : 3 : 1 by volume) mixture solution as a penetrating pressure transmitting medium (PTM). Upon pressure increase, lawsonite does not show any apparent pressure induced expansion (PIE) or phase transition. Pressure-volume data were fitted to a second-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state using a fixed pressure derivative of 4 leading to a bulk modulus ($B_0$) of 146(6) GPa. This compression is further characterized to be isotropic with calculated linear compressibilities of ${\beta}^a=0.0022GPa^{-1}$, ${\beta}^b=0.0024GPa^{-1}$, and ${\beta}^c=0.0020GPa^{-1}$.

X-ray powder diffraction study was conducted on the bulk modulus and phase transition behavior of synthetic zeolite X under high temperature and high pressure. Water and HCO₃^- solution were used as a PTM. Sample was heated and pressurized up to 250 ℃ and 5.18 GPa. The change of unit cell volume and phase transition were observed by X-ray diffraction. The lattice constants and unit cell volume of zeolite X, gmelinite, natrolite, and smectite were calculated using the GSAS2 program to which Le Bail's whole powder pattern decomposition (WPPD) method was applied. The bulk modulus of each zeolite X and smectite were calculated using the EosFit program to which the Birch-Murnaghan equation was applied. The bulk modulus of zeolite X is 89(3) GPa in water run, and zeolite X is 92(3) GPa in HCO₃^- solution run. In both run, pressure induced hydration (PIH) occurred due to the inflow of PTM into the zeolite X framework at initial pressure. Zeolite X transited to gmelinite, natrolite, and smectite in water run. Zeolite X, however, transited to smectite in HCO₃^- solution run. Interzeolite transformation occurred in water run, and did not occur in HCO₃^- solution run, which is assumed that conflict between the environment to form zeolite and the pH of the HCO₃^- solution.
