Utilization of iron bearing dusts has been needed agglomeration prior to use as a burden in blast furnace The cold bonded pellet process using iron bearing dusts has been developed as an alternative to the conventional heat indurated pelletizing process. Partial substitution of cements with cheaper materials would decrease the production cost of pellet. This paper discusses the strength of pellet containing blast furnace slag as a bonding material in pelletizing a cold bonded agglomerates. Depending upon the quality, half of the cement required may be replaced by slag in the pellets with a strength of around 150 kgf. Some of the physicochemical properties of the bonding materials are also investigated in the present work.

This study was carried out to design the optimum mixing ratio of aggregate, cyclic aggregate, and binder (moisture, emulsified asphalt, and emulsion type additives) and produce recycling cold asphalt paving mixture satisfying site work standard. The cyclic aggregate satisfying KS F 2572 was collected from waste asphalt by adequate processing. As the moisture content increased, the shearing strength was decreased. The maximum marshall stability was shown at the 3.0 wt% moisture content. So the optimum moisture content was 3.0 wt%. The marshall stability and flow value with the amount of emulsified asphalt was satisfied in the range of 0.5~2.5 wt%, and the porosity was satisfied in the range of 0.7~2.5 wt%. So the optimum amount of emulsified asphalt was 1.6 wt%. The optimum amount of emulsion type additive was 0.1 wt% in the light of marshall stability and degree of saturation of recycling cold asphalt mixture.

Used aluminum beverage can(UBC) is an important secondary resource. Domestic recycling rate of UBC should be increased from the standpoint of resource savings and environmental protection. Aluminum can to can recycling is divided into two steps. The first step was composed of the processes such as collection of used beverage cans, shredding, magnetic separation, de-lacquring, melting and casting. The second is remelting and casting, heat treatment, hot and cold rolling, annealing, and can making. With brief discussion about this recycling technology, this article covers aluminum can consumption, the present state of aluminum can recycling in Korea, Japan, USA, and Europe.

Flat panel display devices are mainly used as information display devices in the 21st century. The worldwide waste flat panel displays are expected at 2-3 million units but most of them are land-filled for want of a proper recycling technology More specifically, rare earth metals of La and Eu are used as fluorescent materials of Cold Cathode Flourscent Lamp(CCFL)s in the waste flat panel displays and they are critically vulnerable and irreplaceable strategic mineral resources. At present, most of the waste CCFLs are disposed of by land-filling and incineration and proper recovery of 80-plus tons per annum of the rare earth fluorescent materials will significantly contribute to steady supply of them. A dearth of Korean domestic research results on recovery and recycling of rare earth elements in the CCFLs prompts to initiate this status report on overseas research trends and noteworthy research results in related fields.

Aluminum can to can recycling was divided into two stpes. The first step was composed of the processes such as collection of used beverage cans (UBC), shredding, magnetic separation, De-laquiring, melting and casting. The second one was remelting and casting, heat treating, hot and cold rolling, annealing, and can making. In this study, the effect of alloying elements on the microstructure and texture of the secondary ingots made by Al UBC was investigated. In aluminum can to can recycling, the second phase particles appeared in the solidification stage must be controlled by heat treatment. The optimum heat treatment condition was $615^{\circ}C$ for 5hrs. the texture in hot rolled sheet was depressed with increasing Mn content, on the other hand, Si and Fe elements promoted the texture development. The textures of can-body sheet should be controlled in the hot rolling and annealing stage because can was formed from cold rolled sheet without heat treatment.

Wire drawing is aplastic deformation process that produces a wire with a desired diameter by pulling the end of the wire through a die. During the cold wire drawing process, the temperature between the wire and the die bearing is increased. This temperature increase causesenergy consumption increase, bad wire quality, and decreased die life. To reduce friction and avoid high temperature between the wire and the die in the cold wire drawing process, a dry lubricant with soap particles is used. It is not possible to reused the lubricant onceiron oxide is attached to the soap particlesat high pressure die. In this study, recycling technologies for wasted soap particles with processes of crushing, separation, and screening are developed. From the evaluation, the recycling efficiency was found to be 86.97%.

The degree of iron recovery from dust agglomerates was investigated experimentally to determine the optimum mixing ratio of coke in cold bonded pellet(CBP) which is fed into electric arc furnace(EAE) in the minimill plant. From the XRD analysis for EAF dust, magnetite(Fe$_3$O$_4$) and franklinite(ZnFe$_2$O$_4$) was identified as major components. Maximum iron recovery was obtained for the solid carbon content of approximately 18 weight percent. From plant trials of CBP composed of this optimal mixing condition, it was observed that electric power consumption and sulfur content increased with increasing the quantity of CBP.

Eighteen Suffolk wether lambs (BW = 24 kg) were chronically exposed to temperatures of cold (2$^{\circ}C$) or warm (22$^{\circ}C$). The experimental design consisted of a 2${\times}$3 factorial with a single crossover of environment treatment. The sheep were closely shorn and were housed in individual metabolic crates in controlled environment rooms. Sheep consumed pelleted diets ad libitum, which consisted of mainly barley grain and brome grass, and diets contained 7, 11 or 14% crude protein (CP). Animals were catheterized via one jugular vein with a PVC catheter and received a single injection of 60-65 Ci of $^{14}$C]urea. Plasma urea-N (PUN), urinary urea (UU), and carbon specific radioactivity were measured. Urea metabolism was not affected by environment. Percent urea recycling and urea space clearance were highest (p<0.05) on the low nitrogen diet. Urea pool was increased (p<0.10) for the 14% CP diet. Both UU and PUN concentration were positively related (p<0.01) with diet CP content. Therefore, dietary CP content significantly influenced urea metabolism, however, cold exposure did not alter those parameters.

This study provides a fundamental understanding of a cold finger melt crystallization technique by exploring the heat and mass transfer processes of cold finger separation. A series of experiments were performed using a simplified LiCl-CsCl system by varying initial CsCl concentrations (1, 3, 5, and 7.5 wt%), cold finger cooling rates (7.4, 9.8, 12.3, and 14.9 L/min), and separation times (5, 10, 15, and 30 min). Results showed a potential recycling rate of 0.36 g/min with a purity of 0.33 wt% CsCl in LiCl. A CsCl concentrated drip formation was found to decrease crystal purity especially for smaller crystal formations. Dimensionless heat and mass transfer correlations showed that separation production is primarily influenced by convective transfer controlled by cooling gas flow rate, where correlations are more accurate for slower cooling gas flow rates.

There has been an increasing demand over the years for steels with lower[s] content. For the purpose of improving the efficiency of desulphrization in the powder injection process of ladle, experimental studies were carried out by using cold model to optimize the lance configuration, gas flow rate, immersion depth of lance nozzle, position of lance nozzle relative to the ladle and the effect with slag, etc. As the results of this study, it was made clear that 2-hole nozzle lance (C, E type) placed in an asymmetric position gives the shortest mixing times.
