The methods of separation and recovery of rare earth elements in monazite sand have been studied by the ion exchange chromatography. Both of cation and anion exchange resin were used as ion exchange resins and the solutions of EDTA, DTPA, IMDA and Ln-EDTA were used as eluents. The H+, Zn2+, Fe3+, Al3+, Cu2+, and NH4+ forms of cation exchange resin were used as retaining ions. Ln-EDTA solution was loaded on the EDTA form of anion exchange resin and separated. The Ln-EDTA solution was also used as an eluent for a selective separation of one element from the rare earth mixture solution. The size effects of resin column, the elution mechanism for the various elution types and the separation of a large amount of rare earths were studied.

Ion exchange process was optimized to purify ultrafiltrated bean cooking water(BCW) for the production of soy-oligosaccharides. The ultrafiltrated BCW with cutoff MW(COMW) 20,000 membrane was treated with various ion exchange resins. Protein and ash were mostly removed by anion and cation exchange resins, respectively. Based upon removing capabilities for ash and protein, a cation exchange resin(SK1B) and an anion exchange resin(WA30) were selected. Protein and ash were more efficiently removed at low extract/resin ratios(ERR), but part of the oligosaccharides were concomitantly lost. When 2-step-ultrafiltrated BCW first with COMW 20,000 membrane and successively with COMW 5,000 membrane was treated with a mixed resin(SK1B : WA30 =1 : 2) at ERR 5.0, most oligosaccharides were recovered in a clear protein- and ash-free liquid.

A study on the destruction of organic cation and anion exchange resins by electro-generated Ag(II) as a mediator was carried out to develop the ambient-temperature aqueous process, known as Ag(II)-mediated electro-chemical oxidation (MEO) process, for the treatment of a large quantity of spent organic ion exchange resins as the low and Intermediated-level radioactive wastes arising from the operation, maintenance and repairs of nuclear facilities. The effects of controllable process parameters such as applied current density, temperature, and nitric acid concentration on the MEO of organic ion exchange resins were investigated. The cation exchange resin was completely decomposed to $CO_2$. The current efficiency increased with a decrease in applied current density while nitric acid concentration and temperature on the MEO of cation exchange resin did not affect the MEO. On the other hand, anion exchange resins were decomposed to CO and $CO_2$. The ultimate conversion to CO was about $10\%$ regardless of temperature. The destruction efficiencies to $CO_2$ were dependent upon temperature and the effective destruction of anion exchange resin could be obtained above $60^{\circ}C$.

Perchlorate ($ClO{_4}^-$) is the material that is used as propellants of rockets and material of explosive as a form of ammonium perchlorate salts. Ammonium perchlorate solution of high concentration is recovered from expired rocket through demilitarization process by the water-jet method. If people take perchlorate in food and water, it interferes with adsorption of iodide which is the substance needed to synthesize thyroid hormone in the thyroid gland. It has an bad influence upon disturbing pregnancy and synthesis of growth hormone. So the effective method is necessary to remove perchlorate anion in water. By considering economic aspect, we studied effective desorption (regeneration) of perchlorate anion from adsorbent with studies on removal and adsorption of perchlorate anion. Desorption experiment was conducted as batch type. Depending on various conditions (concentration, pH, cation anion form) elution, we evaluated amount, efficiency of desorption(amount of adsorption/desorption ${\times}$ 100). Also, research confirmed the efficiency of mixed resins between anion exchange resin and activated carbon and expected synergic effect from advantages of both adsorbents.

The simulated nuclear spent fuel (SIMFUEL) containing the platinum group elements which will not be dissolved in a nitric acid was completely dissolved with a acid digestion bomb. The metallic elements separated in the SIMFUEL were measured by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Because the peaks of metallic elements were spectrally interfered by uranium spectrum, uranium and metallic elements were separated by cation exchange resin for Mo, Pd, Rh and Ru and by anion exchange resin for Ba, Ce, La, Nd, Rh, Sr, Y and Zr, respectively. The recovery of Mo, Pd, Rh and Ru after separation by cation exchange chromatography found to be 99-103% and anion exchange separation showed 96.5-107% of recovery except Y with the simulated solution whose concentration was similar to the spent nuclear fuel. The relative standard deviation of this method showed 1.3-6.7% in the SIMFUEL whose concentrations of metallic elements were between several $10^2-10^3$ppm.

Preparation of ferrocyanide-anion exchange resin and adsorption test of the prepared resin on the Cs$^{+}$$ion were performed. Adsorption capability of the prepared resin on the Cs$^{+}$ion in the simulated citric acid based soil decontamination waste solution was 4 times greater than that of the commercial cation exchange resin. Adsorption equilibrium of the prepared resin on the Cs$^{+}$ion reached within 360 minutes. Adsorption capability on the Cs$^{+}$ion became to decrease above the necessary Co$^{2+}$ion concentration in the experimental range. Recycling test of the spent ion exchange resin by the successive application of hydrogen peroxide and hydrazine was also performed. It was found that desorption of Cs$^{+}$ion from the resin occurred to satisfy the electroneutrality condition without any degradation of the resin.

Ion exchange resin was used to remove silica ion at ultralow concentration. The effects of temperature, type of ion exchange resin and single/mixed-resin systems on removal efficiency were estimated. As temperature increased, the slope of concentration profile became stiff, and the equilibrium concentration was higher. In the single resin system, the removal of silica was continued up to 400 min, but the silica concentration was recovered to initial concentration after 400 min due to the effect of dissolved $CO_2$. In the mixed-resin system it took about 600 min to reach equilibrium. Because of faster cation exchange reaction than anion exchange reaction, the effect of $CO_2$ could be removed. Based on the experimental results carried out in the mixed-resin system, the selectivity coefficients of silica ion for each ion exchange resin were calculated at some specific temperatures. The temperature dependency of the selectivity coefficient was expressed by the equation of Kraus-Raridon type.

This paper aims at analyzing the process capability and at determining an optimal condition by experimental designs using the 2-way classification with repitition in order to maintain lower Nacl content and to refine both of a very small quantity of fatty acid and various magnetic ions in the glycerin to use ion exchange resin treatment process. An optimal condition of each level combination in both of passing temperature of cation exchange resin($A_1$, $A_2$, $A_3$) and of anion exchange resin($B_1$, $B_2$, $B_3$) is $A_3B_3$. The process capability index is improved from 0.63 to 1.40 and is interpreted as a desirable state. This analysis of process capability by experimental designs will contribute to improving productivity and quality of products.

Radiochemical synthesis of $N^{G}$-mono［$^{14}$ C-methyl］-L-arginine is described. The compound was synthesized from radio-active mono［$^{14}$ C］-methylamine as easily and purified by strong cation-exchange resin (NH form) liquid chromatography using a gradient of ammonium hydroxide, and crystallized as flavianate. The free amino acid was successfully prepared by strirring its flavianate and strong anion-exchange resin (OH- form), which could remove the flavianic acid from its salt in water below room temperature. Purity of the compound was tested by thin-layer chromatography, thin-layer electro-phoresis, and scintillation spectrometry.y.

During the course of studies on the production of glutathione from yeast, process development and optimization was carried out. The optimal pH for the extraction of glutathione was found to be 2.5 to 4.0 and the maximum yield for glutathione was obtained when the extraction temperature was 25 to $45^{\circ}C$. The cuprous salt of glutathione was recovered maximally at the range of 2 to 4g of cuprous oxide per 10 Kg of compressed yeast. Further purification was needed for the removal of impurities from glutathione. Cation exchange resin, anion exchange resin and Sephadex G-25 were employed for this purpose. 13 to 15 g of glutathione was obtained from 10 Kg of compressed yeast and the purity was above 99.3%.
