To investigate the separation of La(III) from sulfuric acid solutions containing Fe(III), rare earth double salt precipitation experiments were performed by adding sodium sulfate. In this work, the effect of sodium sulfate, Fe(III), and La(III) concentrations; reaction temperature; and time was investigated. The extent of precipitation of La(III) was proportional to the concentrations of Na+ and SO42- in the solution. As the reaction temperature increased to 100 ℃, the extent of precipitation of La(III) increased. The extent of precipitation of Fe(III) decreased with increasing reaction time. The concentration ratio of Fe(III) to La(III) did not have a significant effect on the precipitation of La(III). Our results indicate that it is possible to separate La(III) from a ferric sulfate solution through selective precipitation by adding sodium sulfate.

화학적으로 유해한 환경에 놓인 콘크리트 구조물은 필연적으로 그 기능이 악화되므로 혼화재를 포함한 고강도 콘크리트 또는 혼화재 그 자체가 화학물질에 오염된 환경하에서 어떤 변화를 일으키는가에 대한 연구의 필요성이 점점 증대되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 건설현장에서 가장 흔히 사용되는 보통강도 콘크리트와 실리카-흄을 포함한 포틀랜드시멘트 경화체인 고강도 콘크리트가 황산염의 침해를 받는 경우에 일어나는 강도특성과 물성변화를 조사하기 위하여 담수와 함께 황산나트륨, 황산마근네슘, 황산나트륨과 황산마그네슘의 혼합용액 등 여러종류의 황산염 용액에 실리카-흄을 사용한 고강도 콘크리트, 낮은 물-시멘트 비의 고강도 콘크리트, 보통강도의 콘크리트 등의 시험체들을 270일간 침지시켜 침지시간에 따른 압축강도 변화와 실리카-흄의 첨가량에 따른 압축강도 변화, 그리고 실리카-흄의 첨가량에 따른 선형팽창량 및 중량변화등에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. 이에 대한 실험결과를 토대로 실리카-흄을 사용한 고강도 콘크리트에 황산염이 미치는 영향을 분석하여 고강도 콘크리트의 실용성을 극대화하기 위한 방안에 대하여 고찰해보았다. 그 결과 실리카-흄을 포함한 고강도 콘크리트는 황산나트륨의 침해에 대해서는 강한 저항성을 나타내지만 황산마그네슘에 대해서는 심각한 침해를 일으키는 것으로 나타났으므로 황산마그네슘에 노출될 우려가 있는 콘크리트 구조물에 고강도를 발현하기 위하여 실리카-흄을 사용하는 것은 구조적으로 큰 문제가 발생할 것으로 사료된다.

This paper presents an investigation into the durability alkali-activated materials(AAM) mortar and paste samples manufactured using fly-ash(FA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag(GGBFS) exposed to a sulfate environment with different GGBFS replace ratios(0, 30, 50 and 100%), sodium silicate modules($Ms[SiO_2/Na_2O]$ 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0) and initial curing temperatures($23^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$). The tests involved immersions for a period of 6 months into 10% solutions of sodium sulfate and magnesium sulfate. The evolution of compressive strength, weight, length expansion and microstructural observation such as x-ray diffraction were studied. As a results, as higher GGBFS replace ratio or Ms shown higher compressive strengths on 28 days. In case of immersed in 10% sodium sulfate solution, the samples shows increase in long-term strength. However, for samples immersed in magnesium sulfate solutions, the general observation was that the compressive strength decreased after immersion. The most drastic reduction of compressive strength and expansion of weight and length occurred when GGBFS or Ms ratios were higher. Also, the XRD analysis of samples immersed in magnesium sulfate indicated that expansion of AAM caused by gypsum($CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$); the gypsum increased up to 6 months continuously.

This paper was conducted to evaluate the durability of cement mortars exposed to varying concentrations of sodium sulfate for up to 540 days. Three types of cement mortars, namely OPC, SRC and SGC, were exposed to four sodium sulfate solutions with concentrations of 4225, 8450, 16900 and 33800 ppm of ${SO_4}^{2-}$ ions at ambient temperature. The sulfate deterioration was evaluated by measuring compressive strength and linear expansion of mortar specimens. Experimental results indicated that the maximum deterioration was noted in OPC mortar specimens in highly concentrated sulfate solution. In particular, the $C_3A$ content in cements plays a critical role in resisting expansion due to sodium sulfate attack. Additionally, the beneficial effect of GGBS was clearly observed showing a superior resistance against sodium sulfate attack, because of its lower permeability. Another important observation was that the parameters for the evaluation of deterioration degree are greatly dependent on the products formed by sulfate attack.

In this study, the precipitation of rare earth-sodium sulfate with sodium sulfate was conducted in order to separate rare earth from Fe in rare earth sulfate solution. Neodymium (Nd) was easily precipitated as Nd-sulfate salt with sodium sulfate, on the other hand, excessive sodium sulfate was needed for the precipitation of Dy-sulfate salt. Also neodymium not only promoted the precipitation of dysprosium sulfate salt but also increased recovery of dysprosium sulfate salt in sulfuric acid solution. At the condition of $60^{\circ}C$ precipitation temperature, 3 h reaction time, 7 equivalents sodium sulfate, the recovery of neodymium and dysprosium sulfate salt was 99.7% and 94.3% respectively from the sulfuric acid solution containing Nd of 23.39 mg/ml and Dy of 8.67 mg/ml. Lastly, from the results of separation of Dy to Nd by the method of sulfate double salt, the effect of salting out with NaCl is important to increase the grade of Dy, and 98.7% of Dy grade could be obtained in this study.

In this paper a newly designed oxygenator module was used to perform the experiments for pressure drop and oxygen transport in order to evaluate the efficiency of the artificial lung. Also, distilled water. sodium sulfite solutions used in this experiment were evaluated for the performance of other artificial lungs. Substituted bloods have many advantages over whole blood in studying pressure drop and oxygen uptake. They are relatively inexpensive, and require fewer variables to be controlled. Furthermore, deoxygenation is not necessary when those solutions are used. In addition to these advantages. assays and interpretation of the experimental results are relatively easy. In the case of using the sodium sulfite solution having the same oxygen partial pressure as whole blood. the oxygen transfer rate of the sodium sulfite solution was basically same as that of whole blood. It was concluded in evaluating the function of artificial lungs that the sodium sulfite solution was suited for measuring oxygen transfer rate. In our module, artificial blood was flowed into the outside of hollow fiber membrane. The artificial lung created in this experiment showed that pressure drop was reduced to $1/3\~1/6$ of that compared to the inside-flow case.

This paper presents a detailed experimental study on the sulfate resistance of specimens made with portland cement exposed to sulfate attack. The mortar specimens were immersed in a 5% sodium sulfate solution for 360 days and regularly monitored for visual damage, compressive strength loss and expansion. In addition, at the end of 360 days, the products of sulfate attack and the mechanism of attack were investigated through X-ray diffraction, TG&DSC and scanning electron microscopy. The test results indicated that the sulfate deterioration data was ordinary portland cement > sulfate resistance portland cement > low heat portland cement. The microstructural studies indicated that the main reaction product of deterioration of the mortar specimens was the formation of ettringite, gypsum and thaumasite due to sulfate attack. For portland cement matrices, a low heat cement matrix containing the lowest C3A and silicate ratio (C/S) was beneficient against the sulfate attack.

전기아연도금강판은 표면이 미려하고 희생방식력이 뛰어나기 때문에 주로 자동차와 가전, 건자재 등에 많이 사용된다. 현재 냉연 표면처리 제품들은 연속도금공정에 의해 생산되고 있으며 고전류밀도에 의한 고속생산과 도늠액 제조와 조성이 비교적 단순해야 하는 여러 가지 이유로 염산욕과 황산욕을 가장 많이 사용하고 있다. 최근에 신설된 당사의 전기도금공정은 수직형으로 황산욕에서 불용성 양극을 채용하여 아연을 전기도금하고 있다. 일반적으로 황산욕은 염산욕 대비 전기 전도성이 나빠 과전압이 크게 걸리므로 불용성 양극을 사용하여 극간 거리를 최소화할 필요가 있다. 그러나 $Ir0_2$가 코팅된 불용성 양극은 가격이 비싸기 때문에 극간 거리를 너무 짧게 하면 깡대에 의해 손상을 받을 수가 있어 극간 거리를 줄이는데 한제가 있다. 따리서 용액의 전도도들 증가시켜 과전합을 줄이기 위해서는 타사에서 현재 사용하고 있는 황산나트륨, 황산칼륨, 황산암모늄 등에 대한 검토가 필요하다. 전기전도 보조제들은 용액의 전기전도도 뿐만 아니라 도금층의 외관 및 미세구조에도 많은 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 황산나트륨, 황산암모늄의 농도를 변화시켜 표면외관, 한계전류밀도, 미세구조, 우선배향성 등을 조사하여 최적의 물성을 갖는 아연 도금층을 얻기 위한 조건을 도출하고자 하였다. 전기아연도금용 소재로는 두께 0.8mm이고 크기가 $100{\times}120mm$인 중저탄소강 (0.02% C)을 사용하였으며 전처리 과정으로 탈지와 산세를 행하고 현장 도금액을 사용하여 다음과 같은 조건 하에서 아연도금을 행하였고 극간전합을 측정하였다. 도금 후 표면의 미세구조는 SEM을 사용하여 관찰하였으며 표면외관 특성을 분석하기 위해 광택도계(Tri- Microgloss-60-85)를 이용하여 입사각 $60^{\circ}$ 에서 광택도를 측정하였고, 색차계(Color Quest II Hunter Lab.)를 사용하여 백색도를 각각 측정하였다. 또한 X선 회절기를 이용하여 도금층의 우선 배향성을 분석하였다.

In order to remove sulfate(SO42-) and purify the Li2CO3, dissolution and recrystallization of crude Li2CO3 using distilled water and HCl solution was performed. When Li2CO3 was dissolved using distilled water, the amount of dissolved Li2CO3(wt.%) increased as the solution temperature decrease and showed about 1.50 wt.% at 2.5℃. In addition, when Na2CO3 was added and the Li2CO3 solution was recrystallized, the recrystallization(%) increased with increasing temperature, resulting in a 49.00 % at 95 ℃. On the other hand, when Li2CO3 was dissolved using HCl solution, there was no effect of reaction temperature. As the concentration of HCl solution increased, the amount of dissolved Li2CO3(wt.%) increased, indicating 7.10 wt.% in 2.0 M HCl solution. When the LiCl solution was recrystallized by adding Na2CO3, it exhibited a recrystallization(%) of 86.10 % at a reaction temperature of 70 ℃, and showed a sulfate ion removal(%) of 96.50 % or more. Finally, more than 99.10 % of Na and more than 99.90 % of sulfate were removed from the recrystallized Li2CO3 powder through water washing, and purified Li2CO3 with a purity of 99.10 % could be recovered.

In this study, the separation of rare earths and aluminium from the dried powder of waste cerium polishing slurry was investigated. Since cerium oxide, 40％ of rare earths, is the most stable state in rare earth, the dissolution of cerium oxide in acid solution is not easy. Therefore the dissolution process of cerium oxide by sulfation was examined in order to increase the recovery of rare earth. The rare earths could be separated from aluminum by double salt precipitation using sodium sulfate.
