To investigate differences in lead contents of paddy soils and rice plants affected by municipal and industrial waste water pollution in Mangyeong River area, soil and plants samples were collected in 1982 and 1990 according to the distances from the main inlet source and depths of soil. Soil samples were extracted with ${4H-HNO}_3$ and plant sampler were digested with mixture of ${HNO}_3$ and ${HCIO}_4$ for analyzing by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The Pb contents in soils ranged from 13.2 to 56.4 mg $kg^{-1}$. Average Pb level in 1990 was some higher than that in 1982. Variation of Pb content with the distances from the source of waste water showed decreasing tendency wish distances, and it was clearer in 1990 than in 1982. A significant correlation was observed between Pb contents in surface and in subsurface soil, between Pb content in soils and soil properties as clay, OM, and $Ca^{++}$ in 1982, and between Pb content in soils and contents of Cu and Zn in soils. The average Pb content in leaf sheath was 3.42 times of that in brown rice. Pb content in brown rice ranged from 3.1 to 10.4mg $kg^{-1}$.

지금까지 반도체 표면에 대한 연구는 주로 (1000, (111) 표면 등 낮은 밀러 지표를 가진 표면에 대해 이루어져 왔다. 이에 반해 밀러 지표가 높은 Si 면은 불안정하고, 가열하면 다른 표면, 즉 지표가 낮은 면으로 재배열하는 경향이 있는 것으로 알려져 있는데 아직 이들 높은 밀러 지표를 가진 표면에 대한 연구는 미미한 상태이다. 그러나, Si(113)면은 밀러 지표가 높으면서도 안정하기 때문에 Si(113)의 구조를 정확하게 알 수 있다면 밀러 지표가 낮은 Si 표면이 안정한 이유를 이해할 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 TOF-CAICISS 장치(Time of Flight - CoAxial Impact Collision Ion Scattering Spectroscopy) 장비와 RHEED(Reflection High Energy Electron Diffrction)를 이용하여 Si(113) 표면의 구조와 Si(113) 표면의 온도에 따른 구조 변화를 관찰하였다. TOF-CAICISS 실험결과를 보면 (3$\times$2)에서 (3$\times$1)으로 상변환하면서 Si(113) 표면에 오각형을 이루는 dimer 원자들과 adatom 원자들간의 높이차가 작아짐을 알 수 있다. RHEED 실험결과와 전산 모사 결과로부터 상온에서 Si(113)(3$\times$2) 구조를 가지다가 45$0^{\circ}C$~50$0^{\circ}C$에서 Si(113) (3$\times$1) 구조로 상변환한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 그러나, 아직 상전이 메카니즘은 명확하게 밝혀지지 않았다. 실험결과를 전산 모사와 비교함으로써 Si(113) 표면에 [33]방향으로 이온빔을 입사시켰을 경우 dabrowski 모델과 Ranke AI 모델이 적합하지 않다는 것을 알 수 있다./TEX>, shower head의 온도는 $65^{\circ}C$로 설정하였다. 증착된 Cu 박막은 SEM, XRD, AFM를 통해 제작된 박막의 특성을 비교.분석하였다. 초기 plasma 처리를 한 경우에는 그림 1에서와 같이 현저히 증가한 초기 구리 입자들이 관측되었으며, 이는 도상 표면에 활성화된 catalytic site의 증가에 기인한다고 보여진다. 이러한 특성은 Cu films의 성장률을 향상시키고, 또한 voids를 줄여 전기적 성질 및 surface morphology를 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 결과 필름의 잔류 응력과 biaxial elastic modulus는 필름의 두께가 감소함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 같은 두께의 필름인 경우, 식각 깊이에 따른 biaxial elastic modulus 의 변화를 통해 최적의 식각 깊이를 알 수 있었다.도의 값을 나타내었으며 X-선 회절 data로부터 분석한 박막의 변형은 증온도에 따라 7.2%에서 0.04%로 감소하였고 이 이경향은 유전손실은 감소경향과 일치하였다.는 현저하게 향상되었다. 그 원인은 SB power의 인가에 의해 활성화된 precursor 분자들이 큰 에너지를 가지고 기판에 유입되어 치밀한 박막이 형성되었기 때문으로 사료된다.을수 있었다.보았다.다.다양한 기능을 가진 신소재 제조에 있다. 또한 경제적인 측면에서도 고부가 가치의 제품 개발에 따른 새로운 수요 창출과 수익률 향상, 기존의 기능성 안료를 나노(nano)화하여 나노 입자를 제조, 기존의 기능성 안료에 대한 비용 절감 효과등을 유도 할 수 있다. 역시 기술적인 측면에서도 특수소재 개발에 있어 최적의 나노 입자 제어기술 개발 및 나노입자를 기능성 소재로 사용하여 새로운 제품의 제조와 고압 기상 분사기술의 최적화에 의한 기능성 나노 입자 제조 기술을 확립하고 2차 오염 발생원인 유기계 항균제를 무기계 항균제로 대체할 수 있다.

This study was carried out to determine the heavy metal contents in sluges of Keumho river and her branches. The heavy metal contents of sludge are the highest in Sincheon, Kongdancheon and Dalseocheon among the branches. The large part of heavy metal exists in $0{\sim}5cm$ from sludge surface. The sequential extraction with various reagents showed that the residual and organically bound fraction were the most abundant pool. Decomposition of organic matter caused sludge to release heavy metals. On the extraction of sludge with various solution having different pH, it was found that the lower the pH, the more heavy metal was extracted. However, considerable amount of heavy metal was not extracted even with pH 3 solution.

In this study, It was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of recycled crushed concrete as aggregate used cement mortar replace sand and to investigate engineering properties of recycled aggregate for hazardous waste solidification. The compressive strength of cement mortar replaced 5-15% (wt.) recycled aggregate was over $163kgf/cm^2$ which is the standard of first grade concrete block class C. And cement mortar was examined to evaluate the stability by leaching test. Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr, and As as the heavy metals were proved very stable but mercury (Hg) was leached high concentration because it was simply tied to the cement surface. We investigated the crystal structures of cement mortar and they had shown the peaks of $Ca(OH)_2$, ettringite, and CSH (calcium silicate hydrate). As the result, the longer curing time, the higher CSH peak that means to increase compressive strength and the cement mortar was more stable. Therefore it was shown that it may be possible to apply hazardous waste solidification using recycled aggregate, fly ash and sewage sludge ash.

In order to investigate behavior of lateral flow by plasticity of soils and construction control due to it, in the case of unsymmetrical surcharge load on the soft soils, we examine the existing theoretical background, and compared and analysed the experimental results by model test. After model test fabricated by model test apparatus, which made full remolding samples of soft soils, we observed the state of behavior for deformation with increasing load step to constant time interval. The critical surcharge and ultimate capacity showed tendency to approach to the proposed value of Jaky and Meyerhof, and the lateral flow pressure of which the maximum value was acted on the depth calculated by z/H=0.26+1.71cu and one third value of the maximum lateral flow pressure acted on the ground surface, approach the trapezoid distribution And maximum lateral flow pressure will be calculated by proposed equation of Hong or simple equation which($\alpha=0.4$) the flow pressure coefficient . of proposed equation by Tschebotarioff exchanged to($\alpha=K_0$) . Basides, the failure surcharge by [(q/$y_m$)-q] and [$S_y-(y_m/S_y)$] showed the smaller than ultimate bearing capacity, especially failure criteria line of control diagram of [$S_y(y_m/S_y)$] will be calculated by following equation. $S_y.=3.15exp[-0.58(y_m/S_y)$

Corrosion tests were carried out in $360^{\circ}C$ water and $360^{\circ}C$ 70ppm LiOH solution to investigate the corrosion behavior of new zirconium alloys (Zr-0.4Nb-0.8Sn-xFeCrMn, Zr-0.2Nb-1.1Sn-xFeCrMn, Zr-1.0Nb-xFeCu). Microstructures of tested alloys were analyzed by optical microscope and TEM. The cross-sectional surface and crystalline structure of the oxide layer were analyzed by SEM and XRD. From the results of corrosion test, all the alloys showed higher corrosion rates in $360^{\circ}C$ 70ppm LiOH aqueous solution thats in $360^{\circ}C$ water. Especially, high Nb-containing alloy exhibited the acceleration of corrosion rate in LiOH solution. The low Nb- and Sn-added alloys showed better corrosion resistance than the Sn- free high Nb alloy. from the effect of final annealing on the corrosion, it was observed that the partially recrystallized alloys showed better corrosion resistance than fully recrystallized alloys. This would be related to the size and distribution of the second phase particles.

This study was initiated to propose the method for human risk assessment suitable to metal mine area. Using a variety of exposure parameters extracted from the investigation of abandoned metal mines, the proposed method was applied to assess the risk of As and heavy metal contamination for inhabitants (male and female adults and child) within an abandoned mine area. Based on the results of risk assessment, in addition, target remediation concentrations of each media (soil, groundwater, and surface water) were estimated. The results indicate that total carcinogenic risk (TCR) and hazard index (HI) representing carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks, respectively, were calculated to exceed the tolerable levels (1.00E-6 and 1) with regard to two exposure pathways (groundwater and crop intakes) and As. Thus, the human risk of study area was evaluated to be significant. Based on the target risk (TR) for carcinogens, the remediation concentrations of soil were computed to be 6.83~6.85 mg/kg and 18.41~18.46 mg/kg for As and Pb, respectively. In terms of target hazard index (THI) for non-carcinogens, the remediation concentrations of soil were calculated to be 17.38 mg/kg for Cu and 9.13 mg/kg for As.

Surface soils on Barton Peninsula, King George Island, West Antarctica were investigated to acquire the mineralogical and geochemical data of soil in Antarctica. Multiline of techniques for example, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM)-electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), and wet chemistry analysis were performed to measure the composition of clay minerals, Fe-oxidation states, cation exchange capacity, and total cation concentration. Various minerals in sediments such as smectite, illite, chlorite, kaolinite, quartz and plagioclase were identified by XRD. Fe-oxidation states of bulk soils showed 20-40% of Fe(II) which would be ascribed to the reduction of Fe in clays as well as Fe-bearing minerals. Moreover, redox states of Fe in smectite structure was a ~57% of Fe(III) consistent to the values for the bulk soils. The cation exchange capacity of bulk soils ranged from 100 to 300 meq/kg and differences were not significantly measured for the sampling locations. Total cations (Mg, K, Na, Al, Fe) of bulk soils varies, contrast to the heavy metals (Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Mn). These results suggested that composition of bed rocks influenced the distribution of elements in soil environments and soils containing clay compositions may went through the bio/geochemical alteration.

This study investigated the geochernical characteristics of Mn scale formed in groundwater wells at the Damyang area. The composition of Mn scale consists mainly of MnO and $SiO_2$. The content of Mn ranges from56.61wt.% to 68.69wt.%, and $SiO_2$ content ranges from 1.56wt.% to 10.45wt.%. The contents of Mo and Ba in Mn scale increased with increased depth; whereas, the content of Zn and Pb decreased with increased depth. Birnessite, quartz and feldspars were identified in Mn scales using x-ray powder diffraction studies. The IR absorption bands for Mn scales show major absorption band due to OH stretching, adsorbed molecular water, and birnessite stretching, respectively. In the SEM and EDS analysis, the Mn scale consists of botryoidal, spherical, spherulite, and empty straw structure. Those structure may be precipitated simply due to oversaturation with concentrated Mn content or may be formed through biogenic precipitation by Lepthothrix discophora. Under microanalysis using EDS on those structure surface of Mn scales, the Mn atomic percent range from 28 to 44, and such elements revealed the presence of Si, K, Na, Ca, Cl, Cu, Zn, and Ba.
