The pH & alkalinity adjustment method by lime and carbon dioxide($CO_2$) for corrosion control in water distribution system was investigated to determine the optimum operational condition in lime adding process in water treatment plant(WTP). The mixing time at dissolution tank and sedimentation time at saturator for maintaining optimal turbidity condition of lime supernatant were 60~75 minutes and 75~95 minutes, respectively. There was no difference according to $CO_2$ adding methods such as $CO_2$ saturated water or $CO_2$ gas. But, $CO_2$ saturated water could be convenience at WTP in terms of pH control and quantitative dosing. To minimize generation of calcium carbonate products, the short time interval between adding of lime and $CO_2$ is most important. The lime should be added below 32 mg/l for preventing pH rising and generation of calcium carbonate products at the heating condition.

This study details grain-size distributions (GSDs) of carbonate and biogenic opal fractions of the sediments retrieved from the South Korea Plateau in the East Sea and draws paleocanographic implications from them. The opal-fraction GSDs show fine modes of 10.3 ㎛ and coarse modes of 102.5 ㎛ on average. The fine-mode grains of opal fractions mainly consist of small diatoms and radiolarians including their broken frustules, while the coarse-mode grains are mostly comprised of large warm-water diatoms and radiolarians. Significant positive correlation between opal contents and abundances of the coarse-mode GSDs in the total GSDs suggests that the abundances of the coarse-mode GSDs were controlled by the increased surface productivity of warm-water diatoms during interglacial stages. The carbonate-fraction GSDs show fine modes of 2.4 ㎛ and coarse modes of 99.1 ㎛ on average. The fine-mode grains mainly consist of coccolithophores, while the coarse-mode grains are mostly comprised of intact or broken planktonic foraminifera. The abundances of coarse-mode and fine-mode GSDs were not correlated with carbonate contents, suggesting a complex control exerted by both the degree of carbonate dissolution and the productivity of coccolithophores on the carbonate-fraction GSDs.

In this study, copper (II) oxide powder for electroplating was prepared by recovering CuCl₂ from NaClO₃ type etching wastes via recovered non-sintering two step chemical reaction. In case of alkali copper carbonate [mCuCo₃·nCu(OH)₂], first reaction product, CuCo₃ is produced more than Cu(OH)₂ when the reaction molar ratio of sodium carbonate is low, since m is larger than n. As the reaction molar ratio of sodium carbonate increased, m is larger than n and Cu(OH)₂ was produced more than CuCO₃. In the case of m has same values as n, the optimum reaction mole ratio was 1.44 at the reaction temperature of 80℃ based on the theoretical copper content of 57.5 wt. %. The optimum amount of sodium hydroxide was 120 g at 80℃ for production of copper (II) oxide prepared by using basic copper carbonate product of first reaction. At this time, the yield of copper (II) oxide was 96.6 wt.%. Also, the chloride ion concentration was 9.7 mg/L. The properties of produced copper (II) oxide such as mean particle size, dissolution time for sulfuric acid, and repose angle were 19.5 mm, 64 second, and 34.8°, respectively. As a result of the hole filling test, it was found that the copper oxide (II) prepared with 120 g of sodium hydroxide, the optimum amount of basic hydroxide for copper carbonate, has a hole filling of 11.0 mm, which satisfies the general hole filling management range of 15 mm or less.

The concept of a new method, the CARBEX (CARBonate EXtraction) process, was proposed for reprocessing of spent uranium oxide fuel. The proposed process is based on use of water solutions of $Na_2CO_3$ or $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ and solvent extraction (SE) by the quaternary ammonium compounds for selective recovery and purification of U from the fission products (FPs). Applying of SE allows to reach high degree of purification of U from FPs. Carrying out the processes in poorly aggressive alkaline carbonate media leads to increasing safety of SNF's reprocessing and better selectivity of separation of lanthanides and actinides. Moreover carbonate reprocessing media allows to carry out a recycling and regeneration of reagents. We have been done laboratory scale experiments on the extraction components of simulated voloxidated spent fuel in the solutions of NaOH or $Na_2CO_3-H_2O_2$ and recovery of U from carbonate solutions by SE method using carbonate of methyltrioctylammonium in toluene. It was shown that the purification factors of U from impurities of simulated FPs reached values $10^3-10^5$. The received results support our opinion that CARBEX after the further development can become more safe, simple and profitable method of spent fuel reprocessing.

To delineate Late Pleistocene paleoceanographic change of the West Pacific, we analyzed the oxygen and carbon isotopic ratios of two planktonic foraminifera species (G. sacculifer and N. dutertrei) from a piston core (KODOS-313) taken from the West equatorial Pacific, and they are compared with the published results of the East Pacific (ODP site 847 and RC 11-210), in terms of relative amounts and mass accumulation rates of $CaCO_3$ and eolian component, back to marine isotopic stage (MIS) 6. Differences in oxygen and carbon isotope values between two foraminifear species ($0.75%_{\circ}$ in ${\delta}^{18}O$, $0.05%_{\circ}$ in ${\delta}^{13}C$) are less than those of the East Pacific ($1.30%_{\circ}$ in ${\delta}^{18}O$, $0.14%_{\circ}$ in ${\delta}^{13}C$), which indicates smaller vertical contrasts in both temperature and nutrient between mixing-zone and thermocline in the West Pacific. Strong deviation in${\delta}^{18}O$ of G. sacculifer from SPECMAP suggests the carbonate fraction of KODOS-313 was subjected to partial dissolution by bottom water under lysocline. Lower accumulation rates of $CaCO_3$ and eolian component during glacial times are likely due to low sedimentation rate (ave. 0.75 cm/1000 yr) combined with carbonate dissolution in KODOS-313 site. However, the high $CaCO_3$ contents during the glacial periods clearly follow the general pattern of equatorial Pacific ocean.

본 연구는 폐 금속광산으로부터 발생한 중금속이 주변 환경으로 오염 확산되는 특성과 이를 중금속으로 오염된 토양의 효과적인 복원 방안을 모색하기 위하여 토양내 중금속의 거동 특성을 바탕으로 한 반응 특성을 조사하였다. 토양내 중금속의 이동성과 생물에 의한 흡수에 영향을 미치는 화학적 존재 형태를 중금속이 다량 함유되어 있는 충남 청양의 구봉 폐 금광의 광미와 인위적으로 중금속을 오염시킨 농경지 토양에서 중금속의 토양과의 화학적 결합 형태를 연속 축출법에 의해 분리하였으며, 그 순서에 따라 토양 내에서 다음과 같이 용해도와 이동성이 감소한다: Soluble fraction> exchangeable>carbonate>Fe-Mn oxide>organic>residual fraction. 광미중에 결합 부위에 가장 높은 친화력을 보인 Pb는 대부분 Fe-Mn Oxide와 Carbonate fraction에 존재하였고 이 두 Fraction에 각각 48.3%와 26.8% 나타났다. Cu와 Cd는 각각 organic과 carbonate fraction이 71.8% 42.9%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 이들 fraction은 비교적 이동성이 강한 fraction으로 중금 속의 오염 조사시 반드시 평가되어야 하며, 복원방안 결정시 반드시 고려되어야 할 것이다. 중금속을 인위적으로 흡착시킨 토양에 있어서 중금속은 대부분 Exchangeable, carbonate 그리고 Fe-Mn oxide fraction 흡착되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 예산통에 있어서 흡착된 Pb는 이들 fraction에 91%가 존재하였고, Cu는 Fe-Mn Fraction에 30.4% 그리고 Cd는 exchangeable fraction에 67.9% 가 존재하였다. 월곡통에 있어서는 흡착된 Cd는 Exchangeable fraction에 93.2%가 존재하였고, Pb와 Cu는 대부분 exchangeable, carbonate와 Fe-Mn Oxide에 흡착되어 있었다. 따라서 토양내 이들 중금속이 가해질 경우 대부분 독성이 강한 오염원으로서 잠재적인 이동성과 생물학적 흡수가능성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

울산시 사연댐 상류에 위치하여 주기적으로 침수되는 퇴적암의 풍화특징을 연구하였다. 현장조사, 전자현미분석기, Χ-선 회절분석기 및 Χ-선 형광분석기를 이용하여 암석의 풍화조직 및 광물의 조성변화 조사를 통해 주기적으로 침수되는 암석의 기계적 및 화학적 풍화양상을 연구하였다. 수장암석의 풍화작용은 퇴적층리와 수직방향으로 발달한 파쇄대 및 균열과 박리현상과 같은 기계적 풍화작용이 현저하다. 이러한 물리적인 풍화현상은 물과 암석과의 접촉면적을 넓혀 화학적 풍화작용을 가속화시킨 결과 풍화대와 약풍화대에서 석영을 제외한 거의 모든 광물이 용해작용 또는 변질작용을 받았으며, 특히, 탄산염광물의 용해작용이 현저하여 약풍화대에서 조차 방해석이 완전히 용해되어 빈 공간으로 남아있다. 그러나 점토광물과 같은 이차광물의 형성은 미약한 특징을 보인다. 이 지역의 암석은 일정기간 동안 물에 잠긴 상태로 유지되고, 동결과 해빙이 반복됨으로써 물리적 풍화작용이 상대적으로 빠르게 진행되어 물의 침투가 용이한 투수성 구조를 형성하였고, 그 결과 탄산염광물의 용해작용이 급속하게 일어났다. 자유로운 물의 순환으로 인하여 용해된 원소들이 점토광물과 같은 풍화광물로 침전되지 않고 용탈됨으로써 암석조직이 이완되어 풍화작용이 가속되었다. 퇴적암중 풍화에 극히 약한 탄산염광물의 높은 함량이 강한 화학적 풍화작용의 주 요인으로 보인다.

Calcium carbonate ($CaCO_3$) content was measured from 3 box core (BC060301, BC060303, BC070301) sediments, in addition to pilot core (PC313) sediments, from deep waters within the Western Pacific Ocean. At the two collection sites (BC060301, PC313) located close to the equator, downcore variation exhibited low $CaCO_3$ content during the interglacial period and high $CaCO_3$ content during the glacial period. Variation of coarse fraction (>$63\;{\mu}m$) content also followed changes in $CaCO_3$ content, indicating that dissolution effect of bottom water decreased during the glacial period. Such variation pattern is typical of the Pacific Ocean. However, downcore variation at the two collection sites (BC060303, BC070301) in the Philippine Sea contrasted the trend of the previous two cores (i.e., high $CaCO_3$ content during the interglacial period and low during the glacial period). This pattern is typical of the Atlantic Ocean. Such results may be attributed to the increasing dilution effect, initiated possibly by the increased transportation of terrigenous materials from nearby continent and archipelago during the glacial period when sea level was low. Alternatively, it is possible that the non-carbonate biogenic particles may have been responsible for dilution. Because of these uncertainties, the record of $CaCO_3$ variation in the deep Western Pacific Ocean is not regionally consistent.

치과용 임플란트 재료로 주로 사용되는 지르코니아 및 티타늄 합금은 생체불활성 특징으로 인하여 골유착 및 골형성 능력이 떨어진다. 이러한 문제를 쉽고 간단하게 해결하기 위한 방법으로는 생체활성 물질을 표면에 코팅하여 생체 활성을 높이는 방법이 있다. 본 연구에서는 우수한 골결합 능력을 가진 실리케이트계 세라믹인 아커마나이트(Ca₂MgSi₂O₇)를 고상반응법으로 합성하고, SBF 용액 내 침적실험을 통하여 합성 아커마나이트 분말의 생체활성을 분석하였다. 고상반응 출발원료로는 탄산칼슘(CaCO₃), 탄산마그네슘(MgCO₃), 이산화규소(SiO₂) 분말을 사용하였다. 분말을 혼합 및 건조한 후, 가압 성형하여 디스크 형태로 만든 후, 고상반응 온도를 변화시키며 아커마나이트 상의 합성을 유도하였다. 합성된 아커마나이트 펠릿의 용해 및 생체활성 분석을 위하여 SBF 용액 내 침적 시키고, 침적시간에 따라 아커마나이트의 표면 용해 및 하이드록시아파타이트 석출을 분석하였다. 합성반응 온도가 높아질수록 아커마나이트 상이 뚜렷하게 나타난 반면에, SBF 용액 내 용해는 천천히 진행되었다. 합성된 아커마나이트 분말의 생체활성도는 대체적으로 우수하였으나, 그 중에서도 1100℃에서 고상반응 하여 합성한 분말에서 적절한 용해 및 하이드록시아파타이트 입자의 석출이 잘 일어나는 것으로 분석되었다.
