Field experiment was conducted to find out the effect of lime materials application on yield, and chemical composition of Burley 21 in 1986. Lime materials and application rate were CaSO$_4$ : Ca 35kg/l0a. CaCO$_3$ : Ca 35kg/l0a and Liming: pH6.5. Contents of Ca and Mg in fresh or cured leaves were increased, but AI, Fe and Mn were decreased by applying lime materials. Yield were increased by applying lime materials. Among lime materials treatment, yield of limed and CaCO$_3$ plot were higher than that of CaSO$_4$ plot. Value per kg of cured leaves was not affected by applying lime materials. Cured leaves of CaSO$_4$ plot contained higher NH$_3$-nitrogen and alkalinity number of water insoluble ash than those of unlimed plot. Cured leaves of CaCO$_3$, plot contained higher alkalinity number of water soluble ash, insoluble ash and volatile neutral constituent, but lower protein-nitrogen and petroleum ether extracts than those of unlimed plot. Cured leaves of limed plot contained higher alkalinity number of water soluble and insoluble ash, NO$_3$-nitrogen and volatile neutral constituents, but lower protein -nitrogen, nicotine and petroleum ether extracts than those unlimed plot. Yield was increased, however leaf Quality in respect to chemical and organoleptic characteristics were not affected considerably by applying lime materials. Therefore, it suggests that controlling the soil pH about 6.5 by liming might be necessary for tobacco cultivation.

In this study, we investigated the effects of sulfuric acid on the synthesis of calcium borate in the artificial boron-containing brine (bittern) saturated with calcium hydroxide. For the study, we attempted to synthesize calcium borate under various conditions such as reaction temperature, reaction time, and cooling temperature after heating, and then to examine the recovery and purity of the calcium borate according to the presence or absence of sulfuric acid at each condition. The XRD analysis confirmed that, regardless of the presence of sulfuric acid, the calcium borate ($Ca_2B_2O_5{\cdot}H_2O$) was synthesized, while, in the presence of sulfuric acid, the calcium sulfate ($CaSO_4{\cdot}0.5H_2O$) was produced as a by-product. In all the experiments performed by varying the reaction temperature and time, the recovery and purity of the calcium borate without sulfuric acid were observed higher than those with it. The results indicated that the addition of sulfuric acid increased the solubility of the calcium hydroxide, but the calcium sulfate produced as a by-product could decrease the recovery and purity of the calcium borate by preventing the synthesis. In this study, the artificial boron-containing brine (bittern) (500 mg-B/L) was saturated with calcium hydroxide in the absence of sulfuric acid, and then the solution was heated at $80-105^{\circ}C$ for less than 10 minutes to synthesize the calcium borate. The recovery and purity of calcium borate were measured as high as 80 % and 96 %, respectively.

It has been recently reported that the presence of sulphate causes abnormal volume changes in lime-stabilized soils. Volume changes in lime-stabilized soils can take place due to sulphate compounds such as ettringite. Sulphate compounds caused a variety of serious geotechnical hazards such as swelling pressure and damages to light structures and pavements. This paper discusses the influence of sulphate on the soil specimens treated with quicklime and chemical additives. The physical and mechanical characteristics were studied by means of laboratory tests. The results showed that the presence of sulphate treated soil reduced the shear strength of the lime treated soils and increased the swelling properties. SEM and XRD results indicated that the presence of sulphate producted needle-like crystals such as ettringite. Moreover, the role of needle-like crystals in specimen was probably related to the swelling properties.

Industrial use of waste oyster shells is limited because of requiring excessive energy for converting natural oyster shells in the form of calcium carbonate ($CaCO_3$) into calcium oxide (CaO) for this purpose. This study aimed to develop energy-saving process for producing solidifying agent using waste oyster shells for backfill materials. It was suggested that oyster shells were converted to calcium sulfates which were mixed with sodium hydroxide solution and red clay, forming solid specimen. The optimal concentrations of sulfuric acid for sulfation of oyster shell and sodium hydroxide to generate calcium hydroxide ($Ca(OH)_2$), were determined. Unconfined compressive strength of solid specimen increased with increasing the content of solidifying agent while it increased also with increasing ratio of natural oyster shells to coal ash. The result clearly demonstrates that solidifying agent consisting of sulfuric acid-treated oyster shell, coal ash, and sodium hydroxide solution, can be effectively utilized for preparing backfill materials using natural oyster shell and coal ash. Sulfuric acid-treated oyster shell-based solidifying agent has not been previously developed and will contribute to broaden industrial application of waste oyster shells.

In this article, we would like to investigate a durability characterization of cement mortar with inert filler, which is ground calcium carbonate(GCC). The kinds of techniques to evaluate cement mortar are chloride ion ingress, carbonation and sulfate attack. For the experimental result of the resistance of chloride ion ingress, carbonation and sulfate attack, as the addition of GCC makes decreasing the permeability by micro-filler effect, the specimens of $5{\sim}15%$ ratio of replacement are superior to the GCC0 mortar specimen with respect to durability of cement matrix in this scope.

This study aimed to evaluate the sulfate removal capacity of the enzyme-induced carbonate precipitation (EICP) technique through the chemical precipitation of sulfate with calcium ions. The optimal EICP recipe was obtained to retain the excess calcium cations in the solution for the generation of a sufficient amount of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) mineral. The effect of gypsum precipitation on the EICP-treated sand specimen was investigated by measuring the shear wave velocity and by visual inspection via scanning electron microscopy. The EICP solution using soybean crude urease, as an alternative to laboratory-grade purified urease, exhibited a lower sulfate removal efficiency at a similar CaCO₃ production rate compared with the optimal EICP recipe because of soybean impurities.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine if bony union can be obtained when a bone graft substitute is transplanted in order to treat a benign bone tumor and if there is a difference between calcium sulfate and hydroxyapatite in the healing procedure when the degree of the bony union after the bone graft are compared. Materials and Methods: This study selected 20 cases, in which a curettage on the benign bone tumors was conducted and a bone graft substitute was transplanted. The area of the focus, the new bone formation, the recurrence of the focus in the plain radiographs and histological findings were observed. Results: Twenty cases (13 males, 7 females) were evaluated. Their mean age at surgery was 15.8 years (2~45), and the mean follow-up period was 3 years. The mean area of focus was 30.7 $cm^3$ in the radiographs, and 19 cases showed successful results in the ultimate visit, while 1 case has a recurrence of the focus. Conclusion: Calcium sulfate has osteoconduction and superior bioavailability, and is absorbed in vivo in proportion to the new bone formation. On the other hand, hydroxyapatite has good osteoconduction. It can result in better bone formation when it is combined with an autologous bone graft, autologous bone marrow, and an allogenic bone graft, but is absorbed in vivo more slowly than the former.

We present extraction process and reaction mechanism of boric acid from one of calcium borate ores, colemanite by reaction with sulfuric acid. Colemanite has been fully decomposed under pH 5 with sufficiency amount of sulfuric acid, more than the amount stoichiometrically required. Calcium sulfate was separated out, leaving boron in the liquid phase after sulfuric acid addition. The extraction process of boric acid was affected by dissolution temperature and time, amount of sulfuric acid and ammonium sulfate, pH and a degree of concentration before recrystallization. The $SiO_2$ of the impurities which colemanite contains was insoluble so that it was separated out with calcium sulfate from liquid phase. The species of $CaO,\;Al_2O_3,\;Fe_2O_3,\;MgO$ were remained in a liquid phase after reaction with sulfuric acid. These impurities were separated out by addition of ammonia to the liquid phase, funhermore, boric acid was produced by process of pH adjustments and acidification, concentration, and recrystallization.
