The study examined the level of heavy metal contamination by dividing military rifle shooting ranges into the three areas, i.e firing, trajectory, and target. The target area was found to be contaminated at a level higher (Cu 845 mg/kg, Pb 30,487 mg/kg) than the Worrisome Level of Soil Contamination (hereinafter referred to as the “Worrisome Level”) The trajectory area was predicted to be free from contamination, but it did indicate contamination although it was pretty much lower (Cu 23 mg/kg, Pb 99 mg/kg) than Worrisome Level. This is attributed to the contamination spread when rearranging the soil of the target area during the maintenance of the shooting range. The firing area was also predicted to be free from heavy metal contamination, but the results analyzed indicated a contamination higher (Cu 201 mg/kg, Pb 2,286 mg/kg) than Worrisome Level. This is attributed to the fragments of the broken bullet scattering due to the pressure generated as the bullet leaves the muzzle. An examination of heavy metal contamination in the discharge area as well as gutters to prevent the intrusion of rain water from perimeter revealed a high level of contamination (Cu 298 mg/kg, Pb 6,497 mg/kg), which makes it necessary to take measures.

사용되는 metal구분 없이 반도체 공정장비들을 사용함으로써 cross-contamination을 유발시킬 수 있다. 특히, copper(Cu)는 확산이 쉽게 되어 cross-contamination에 의해 수 ppm정도가 wafer에 오염되더라도 트랜지스터의 leakage current발생 요인으로 작용할 수 있기 때문에 Si-IC성능에 치명적인 영향을 미칠 수 있는데, Si-LSI 실험실에서 할 수 있는 공정과 Si-LSI 실험실을 나와 할 수 있는 공정으로 구분하여 최대한 Si-LSI 장비를 공유함으로써 최소한의 장비로 Cu cross-contamination문제를 해결할 수 있다. 즉, 전기도금을 할 때 전극으로 사용되어지는 TiW/Al sputtering, photoresist (PR) coating, solder bump형성을 위한 via형성까지는 Si-LSI 실험실에서 하고, 독립적인 다른 실험실에서 Cu-seed sputtering, solder 전기도금, 전극 etching, reflow공정을 하면 된다. 두꺼운 PR을 얻기 위하여 PR을 수회 도포(multiple coaling) 하고, 유기산 주석과 유기산 연의 비를 정확히 액 조성함으로서 Sn:Pb의 조성비가 6 : 4인 solder bump를 얻을 수 있었다. solder를 도금하기 전에 저속 도금으로 Cu를 도금하여, PR 표면의 Cu/Ti seed층을 via와 PR표면과의 저항 차를 이용하여 PR표면의 Cu-seed를 Cu도금 중에 etching 시킬 수 있다. 이러한 현상을 이용하여 선택적으로 via만 Cu를 도금하고 Ti층을 etching한 후, solder를 도금함으로써 저 비용으로 folder bump 높이가 60 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 이상 높고, 고 균일/고 밀도의 solder bump를 형성시킬 수 있었다.

Geochemical study was carried out to find out soil contamination at the heaped soil, moved from bottom of the storage pond in Pohang industrial complex, in Moondug, Chemical analysis showed that contents of heavy metals in the soil were higher than those of the ordinary soil. Contents of Cu and Cd in the soil exceeded Korean standard of soil contamination. Especially content of Cu exceeded Korean standard of soil contamination(50ppm) at the six points and at one point content of Cu was 113.3ppm. Contents of Be were so higher than U.S RCRA standard(0.2ppm) that they can affect soil environment. The followed research about relation between pollutant and soil and proper measures are required to prevent soil contamination from affecting environment of Moondug.

The new metrology, Advanced Poly-silicon Ultra-Trace Profiling (APUTP), was developed for measuring bulk Cu and Ni in heavily boron-doped silicon wafers. A Ni recovery yield of 98.8% and a Cu recovery yield of 96.0% were achieved by optimizing the vapor phase etching and the wafer surface scanning conditions, following capture of Cu and Ni by the poly-silicon layer. A lower limit of detection (LOD) than previous techniques could be achieved using the mixture vapor etching method. This method can be used to indicate the amount of Cu and Ni resulting from bulk contamination in heavily boron-doped silicon wafers during wafer manufacturing. It was found that a higher degree of bulk Ni contamination arose during alkaline etching of heavily boron-doped silicon wafers compared with lightly boron-doped silicon wafers. In addition, it was proven that bulk Cu contamination was easily introduced in the heavily boron-doped silicon wafer by polishing the wafer with a slurry containing Cu in the presence of amine additives.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the degree of metal contamination of the Turag River water and its suitability for irrigation. Twenty water samples were analyzed for physicochemical parameters and metals viz., calcium, magnesium, potassium (K), sodium, copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), and nickel (Ni). All water samples were slightly alkaline to alkaline. Regarding electrical conductivity (EC), all samples were suitable for crop in soils with moderate permeability and leaching. Water samples were medium salinity and low alkalinity hazard classes. In terms of total dissolved solids (TDS), all samples were classified as freshwater. As per sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) and soluble sodium percentage (SSP), all samples were classified as excellent. No residual sodium carbonate (RSC) was detected in any of the samples, indicating suitability for irrigation; and all samples were considered very hard. Cr and Mn contents in all samples were above FAO guideline values and, therefore, these metals were considered toxic. Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, and Ni concentrations were below acceptable limit for irrigation and do not pose a threat to soil environment. Significant relationships were found between EC and TDS, SAR and SSP, SAR and RSC, and SSP and RSC. The combinations of ions such as K-Zn, K-Fe, K-Cu, K-Mn, K-Pb, Zn-Fe, Zn-Cu, Zn-Mn, Fe-Mn, Cu-Mn, Cu-Pb and Mn-Pb exhibited significant correlation. This study revealed that Turag River water samples are contaminated with Cr and Mn. This fact should not be ignored because water contamination by metals may pose a threat to human health through food chain.

In order to investigate the extent and degree of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn contamination affected by mining activities of the Dalsung Cu~W mine, sampling of stream sediments and waters has been undertaken up to 1.5 km downstream from the mine at 50~150 meter intervals. Analysis of the samples was carried out using ICP-AES for Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn. Physical and chemical properties of sediments (pH, organic matter contents, cation exchange capacity) and waters (pH, Eh and temperature) were also measured. The properties of the sediment samples were characterized by low pH (3.0~5.5), low organic matter contents (2~5%) and a moderate degree of cation exchange capacity (7~15 meq/100 g) with a high proportion of sand fraction. The pH values of water samples ranged from 3.0 to 5.0 and the Eh levels were in the range of 350~530 mV. Concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in the sediments averaged 3.2 mg/kg, 1,390 mg/kg, 451 mg/kg and 262 mg/kg with the range of 0.6~11.4 mg/kg, 15~3,800 mg/kg, 14~1,330 mg/kg and 63~1,060 mg/kg, respectively. Significant levels of the heavy metals were also found in the water samples with the range of $10{\sim}170{\mu}gCd/l$, $300{\sim}41,600{\mu}gCu/l$, $10{\sim}80{\mu}gPb/l$ and $700{\sim}15,400{\mu}gZn/l$. These elevated concentrations in the sediments and waters may be caused by the weathering of mine waste materials and their high solubilities under acidic and/or oxidizing conditions. Although metal concentrations in the samples decrease with the distance from the mine, heavy metal contamination of sediments and waters were also found at the 1.5 km downstream due to the mobile conditions of the heavy metals, with particular reference to Cd and Zn in stream waters.

마산만과 진해만 해저에서 각각 31개와 65개 표층퇴적물을 채취하여 중금속(Al, Fe, Mn, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn, Pb, As, Cd)을 분석하였다. 중금속 함량은 우리나라 주변의 만 및 하구 퇴적물에 비해 마산만에서 Fe, Cr, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, As 등이 높았고 진해만에서 Mn이 높았다. Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, As는 항구 및 산업시설이 위치한 마산만 해안에서 매우 뚜렷한 증가를 보였으며 공간분포를 통한 오염물질의 근원지 추정이 가능하였다. 오염에 의한 중금속 농축은 지각의 함량을 배경농도로 한 농축비에 근거할 때 진해만은 국지적으로, 반면에 마산만은 넓은 지역에 걸쳐 활발히 진행된 것으로 확인되었으며 특히 Cu, Zn, Pb 및 Cd의 농축비가 대비되었다. As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Ni, Zn 함량을 중금속 환경기준에 적용한 결과 진해만 시료의 일부와 마산만 시료의 거의 대부분이 주의기준(NOAA ERL, EC TEL, ANZECC ISQG-low, Hong Kong ISQV-low)을 초과하였으며, Cu 및 Zn 함량은 일부 마산만 시료에서 관리기준(NOAA ERM, EC PEL, ANZECC ISQG-high, Hong Kong ISQV-high)을 초과하였다. $I_{geo}$ 값에 근거한 마산만의 중금속 오염은 Fe, Mn, Cr, Ni는 우려할 만한 수준이 아닌 반면 Cu, Zn, Pb는 강한 오염단계에 직면해 있거나 진입해 있으며, Cd는 시료의 87.1%가 강한 오염단계 이상의 심화된 오염상태로 파악되었다.

Objectives This study examined the spatial distribution and the extent of soil contamination by heavy metals resulting from primitive, unconventional informal electronic waste recycling in the Agbogbloshie e-waste processing site (AEPS) in Ghana. Methods A total of 132 samples were collected at 100 m intervals, with a handheld global position system used in taking the location data of the soil sample points. Observing all procedural and quality assurance measures, the samples were analyzed for barium (Ba), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn), using X-ray fluorescence. Using environmental risk indices of contamination factor and degree of contamination ($C_{deg}$), we analyzed the individual contribution of each heavy metal contamination and the overall $C_{deg}$. We further used geostatistical techniques of spatial autocorrelation and variability to examine spatial distribution and extent of heavy metal contamination. Results Results from soil analysis showed that heavy metal concentrations were significantly higher than the Canadian Environmental Protection Agency and Dutch environmental standards. In an increasing order, Pb>Cd>Hg>Cu>Zn>Cr>Co>Ba>Ni contributed significantly to the overall $C_{deg}$. Contamination was highest in the main working areas of burning and dismantling sites, indicating the influence of recycling activities. Geostatistical analysis also revealed that heavy metal contamination spreads beyond the main working areas to residential, recreational, farming, and commercial areas. Conclusions Our results show that the studied heavy metals are ubiquitous within AEPS and the significantly high concentration of these metals reflect the contamination factor and $C_{deg}$, indicating soil contamination in AEPS with the nine heavy metals studied.
