Objective of this research was to assess the influence of reaction time on the heavy metal-organic ligand complexation by employing kinetic models. Aqueous solutions of humic (HA) or fulvic acid (FA) were reacted with metal solutions with 1:1 ratio to form complexes. Efficiency of organic ligand on metal removal was determined by separating the precipitates from solution using $0.45\;{\mu}m$ filter paper. Complexation between Cu or Pb and HA or FA followed the first- or multiple first order kinetics, largely depending on metal concentration and kind of organic ligand. Amounts of precipitates were increased proportionally with reaction time but reached to quasiequilibrium where rate of precipitate formation was not varied with time. Copper-ligand complexation was, irrespective of ligand, fitted to the single first order kinetics at Cu concentrations lower than $300{\mu}M$, but this was fitted to the multiple first order kinetics at Cu concentrations higher than $300{\mu}M$. As increasing Cu concentrations, the precipitates formed more readily, judging from the increased rate constants (${\kappa}$). In the multiple first order kinetics, ${\kappa}$ was decreased as reaction steps proceeded. Most of Cu-ligand precipitates were formed within 15 min. FA precipitated Cu more rapidly than HA did. ${\kappa}$ for Pb-HA complexation was decreased but that for Pb-FA reaction was increased, as increasing Pb concentration. Most of Pb-organic ligand complexation occurred within 30 min. Afterwards, ${\kappa}$ values were relatively small and not affected much by time. Pb was precipitated by humic acid more readily than Cu when metal concnetrations were $200{\sim}300{\mu}M$. However, when metal concentrations were in the ranges of $400{\sim}500{\mu}M$, a reversed tendency was observed.

While sludge settles down in a column, sludge settling characteristic is influenced by effect parameters, interparticle force, wall effect etc. As the height of a column changes, the settling velocity of sludge-water interface changes, too. At lower sludge concentration, particular effect was not observed by the difference of column height, however it was observed that settleability of sludge was greatly influenced by column height when sludge settling was poor or sludge concentration was high. It is therefore required to consider the effect of column height when the power model for sludge interface settling is established. In the tests, there was hardly any $SVI_{ts}$(SVI after "t" minutes) difference in each column after 10min at $1.5kg/m^3$ of sludge concentration. When sludge concentration was at $2.5kg/m^3$, $SVI_{ts}$ tended to be constant after 20min. At $3.5kg/m^3$, $SVI_{ts}$ increased to 30minuets. The purpose of this work is to establish the correction factor that is able to compensate the errors derived from each different height of column.

미세 물질을 포함하고 있는 광산 폐기물의 디워터링 과정(dewatering process)은 작은 입자들의 침전속도가 낮기 때문에 시간이 오래 걸리고 어려운 과정이다. 따라서 광산 폐기물이 안정적으로 침전되었는지 확인하기 위해서 디워터링 과정을 연속적으로 모니터링하는 기술이 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 kaolinite, illite, bentonite 3 종류의 점토를 3 가지 농도(0.1g/L, 1g/L, 5g/L)로 나눠서 초음파 음향 감지를 이용해 후방산란 신호를 측정했다. 그리고 측정된 신호를 활용하여 합성곱 신경망(CNN) 모델을 개발하여 점토의 분류 모델을 만드는 연구를 수행했다. 본 연구에서 보여준 CNN 의 높은 정확도는 광산 폐기물의 디워터링 과정에서 미세 광물과 미세 농도 분류 모니터링에 적합한 저렴하고 측정하기 쉬운 음향 감지의 사용 가능성을 입증했다.

A physically-based soil-water erosion model with simple hydrology and Rose & Hairsine's erosion concept is described, and was implemented in the form of computer program. The model derived from the concept of stream power(Bagnold, 1977) considers settling velocity characteristics of the soil and distinguishes between the processes of entrainment and re-entrainment. It deals separately with rill flow and sheet flow, handles vegetation in terms of soil contact cover, and has the ability to simulate soil movement on nonuniform slopes. The model predicted sediment concentrations reasonably with the results of Mclsaac et al. (1990). It showed a capability to quantitatively predict the movement of soil on uniform and nonuniform slopes. Among the model parameters, soil depositability $({\phi})$ was the most sensitive from the sensitivity analysis.

An experimental investigation is carried out to study 2-phase vertically upward hydraulic transport of solid particles by water and non-Newtonian fluids in a slim hole concentric annulus with rotation of the inner cylinder. Rheology of particulate suspensions in viscoelastic fluids is of importance in many applications such as particle removal from surfaces, transport of proppants in fractured reservoir and cleaning of drilling holes, etc. In this study a clear acrylic pipe was used in order to observe the movement of solid particles. Annular fluid velocities varied from 0.2 m/s to 3.0 m/s. Pressure drops and average flow rate and particle rising velocity are measured. For both water and 0.2% CMC solutions, the higher the concentration of the solid particles is, the larger the pressure gradients become.

Barium titanyl oxalate(BTO) was precipatated by utilizing the thermal decomposition of dimethyl oxalate in acidic aqueous solution having $BaCl_2$ and $TiCl_4$. Particle morphology of BTO was influeneced by the various experimental factors. i.e.. the faster rate to nucleation with higher temperature and the higher ratio of [DMO]/[$Ba^{2+}+Ti^{4+}$] was found to correspond to the faster rate of transformation of particle size distribution from unimodal to broad unimodal through bimodal. The BT powder obtained by calcination at $900^{\circ}C$ in air consists of larger particles than BT generated by general coprecipitation method and shows tetragonal symmetry. The stirring during reaction was also found to have much effect upon characteristics of BTO and BT.

In this study, precipitation process was developed for the recovery of the lactic acid from calcium lactate fermentation broth. Calcium lactate yield was improved by decreasing the solubility of calcium lactate through the addition of ethanol (25%, v/v) as a co-precipitant. The optimal lime type, lime concentration, stirrer speed, precipitation time, temperature, and solvent amount for $Ca(LA)_2$ precipitation were CaO, 0.0175 g/mL, 220 rpm, 24 h, $5^{\circ}C$, ethanol 25% (v/v), respectively. Lactic acid was easily and efficiently recovered from precipitated $Ca(LA)_2$ by adding sulfuric acid ($Ca(LA)_2/H_2SO_4$ molar ratio=1:1). In the model solution of organic acids and fermentation broth, the overall yields of recovered lactic acid were 62% and 55%, respectively, under the aforementioned optimal conditions.

Quartz is the most abundant mineral in the Earth's continental crust. Therefore, understanding of quartz dissolution and precipitation is very important to know about weathering processes and interactions between rocks and water in hydrothermal and metamorphic environments. This paper presents a basic review on the research about quartz dissolution mechanism under various physico-chemical conditions. We rearranged the relationship between each physico-chemical factor and dissolution mechanism from the results of previous researchers in this paper. From this result, we understood that quartz dissolution and precipitation are affected by each factor such as temperature, pH, and applied stress conditions at contact point. In particular, we recognized that the high pH and temperature conditions have different anion concentrations on mineral's surface. As a result, high pH and temperature conditions have a better effect than applied stress condition to the quartz dissolution mechanism.

본 논문에서는 불순물 잠복현상 규명에 필요한 금속산화물 용해 현상과 이온성 불순물의 금속산화물 흡착 현상 조사를 위해 산소 농도 변화 시 금속 산화물 형성 속도 및 구조/입자 크기 변화에 대해 조사하였다. 금속산화물 형성 속도 조사 결과 철산화물의 경우 산소농도가 높으면 산화물 생성속도가 30% 감소하였다. 금속산화물 구조/입자 크기 변화 조사 결과 철산화물의 경우 산소 농도가 2 L/min일 때 입자는 약간 커지는 경향을 보였다. 입자의 크기가 증가함에 따라 입자간 뭉침현상이 나타나므로 불순물의 침입이 가능하여 공침현상이 발생할 가능성이 증가할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 산소의 농도에 따라 불순물이 침전물 속으로 숨어들 수도 있고 다시 빠져나올 수 있는 잠복현상의 가능성이 예측된다.

This study was conducted to examine the possibility of improvement effect in Takju mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ on the second stage mash. Alcohol was highly generated in comparison with the control on fermentation time in case of the ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ on the second stage mash. Reducing sugar was also highly produced after 2 days on the second stage, and amount of reducing sugar was indicated to be decreased between $4\~6$ days. Total acidity was shown not to be practically changed after 2 days in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ on the second stage in comparison with the control. Fusel oil produced from mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was less generated in comparison with the control. Yeast growth on the mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was revealed to be highly in comparison with the control through fermentation periods. Precipitation velocity of suspension in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was shown to be 1.5 times lower than that of the control. Precipitation amount in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was not nearly changed on the storage time. The astringency and bitterness were slightly decreased, while on the other turbidity and refreshing were increased in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$. In general overall preferences was indicated to be fully satisfied in mash added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ in comparison with the control. Nasty smell of Takju added with ${\alpha}G-Hesperidine$ was recognized after 6 days during storage.
