To identify the rapacity of waste leachate absorption in Populus euramericana and Betula platyphylla var, japonica, four different treatments were applied to seedlings: leachate solution (100% leachate), 50% dilution (50% leachate: 50% water, v/v) and 25% dilution, (25% leachate: 75% water, v/v) were applied to these two species. After the experiment, concentrations of heavy metals in tree parts were analyzed by an Inductively Coupled Plasma emission spectrometer (ICP). treatment with waste leachate significantly stimulated both Populus euramericana and Betula platyphylla var. japonica biomass production relative to the water control. In addition, these species showed good absorption capacity of As, Co, Hg and Ni elements. The results of this study suggested that these two species can absorb the toxic materials through their roots and transport them to stems or leaves.

A method to determine the trace level of arsenic in scalp hair by the hydride generation(HG)-inductively coupled plasma(ICP) spectrometry is described. The optimum conditions for the generation of arsine($AsH_3$), and the interference effects from the concomitant ions were studied. Severe interference effect from Ni(II) is circumvented by the coprecipitation of arsenic with $La(OH)_3$. The detection limit of arsenic is 0.3ppm and the arsenic contents in scalp hair ranged 10~20ppb.

Ni(II) containing coenzyme F430 catalyzes the reduction of $CO_2$ in methanogen. Macrocyclic Ni(II) complexes with N,O shiff bases have been received a great attention since metal ions play an important role in the catalysis of reduction. The reducing power of metal complexes are supposed to be dependent on oxidoreduction state of metal ion and structural properties of macrocyclic ring moiety that can enhance electrochemical properties in catalytic process. Six different ${\alpha}$-oximinoketone compounds, precursor of macrocyclic ligands used in $CO_2$ reduction coenzyme F430 model complexes, were synthesized with yields over 90% and characterized by NMR. The molecular geometries of ${\alpha}$-oximinoketone analogues were fully optimized at Beck's-three-parameter hybrid (B3LYP) method in density functional theory (DFT) method with $6-31+G^*$ basis set using the ab initio program. In order to understand molecular planarity and substitutional effects that may enhance reducing power of metal ion are studied by computing the structure-dependent $^{13}C$-NMR chemical shift and comparing with experimental results.

A plate heat exchanger (PHE) normally uses vacuum brazing technology for connecting plates and fins. However, the reliability of high temperature brazing, especially with nickel-based filler metals containing boron the formation of brittle intermetallic compounds (IMCs) in brazed joints is of major concern. since they considerably degrade the mechanical properties. This research was examined the vacuum brazing of commercially SUS304 stainless steel with BNi-2 (Ni-Cr-B-Si) filler metal, and discussed to determine the influence of brazing temperatures on the microstructure and mechanical strength of brazed joints. In the metallographic analysis it is observed that considerable large area of Cr-B intermetallic compound phases at the brazing layer and the brazing tensile strength is related to removal of this brittle phase greatly. The mechanical properties of brazing layer could be stabilized through increasing the brazing temperature over $100^{\circ}C$ more than melting temperature of filler metals, and diffusing enough the brittle intermetallic compound formed in the brazing layer to the base metal.

In order to evaluate the distribution and behaviour of atmospheric particulate metals in high-altitude area, we collected 22 aerosol samples using a high volume air sampler at Soback Mt. Meteorological Observation Station from Jan. to Nov. 1993 and analysed for metals (Al, Fe, Mg, Na, Ca, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb) with ICP/AES and ICP/MS. Although sampling site is located in high-altitude and far from local sources of atmospheric pollutants, enrichments of metals are 2 times higher than those of western coastal reural area. This fact may imply that of metallic pollutants in the coastal rural site were came from further western side (e.g. China), atmospheric metals in this study area contain the signal of metropolitan cities located in the main wind direction (NNW). Sea salts are negligible in the aerosol particle population because reference elements of sea salts (Na, Mg) are all originated from soil particles. The contents of soil particles in aerosols are highest in spring and lowest in winter. Atmospheric enriched elements (Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb) are diluted with soil particles, especially during the yellow sand period. The results of factor analysis suggest possibility of interpreting their chemical significance in terms of sources (soil, pollutants) and gas-particle conversion processes (formation of ammonium sulfates, ammonium nitrates and/or their mixtures).

Temperature distribution of battery module consists of 11 batteries of 90Ah rate is analyzed using commercial software NISA II. Equivalent thermal resistance network is used to reduce the number of element in calculating heat transfer through a medium composed of several different thermal conductivity layers. Orthotropic model is used to put different thermal conductivity values according to Cartesian coordinate. Aluminum cooling fins are inserted in the middle of batteries to reduce battery module temperature. The cooling fin at the end of the module does not necessary in reducing maximum temperature. Combined effect of front and side cooling fin is analyzed to reduce the temperature difference among batteries. The maximum temperature difference among batteries is reduced within $3^{\circ}C$ when 4 aluminum cooling tin of 1mm thickness is inserted in battery module.

A nickel(Ⅱ) complex, Ni(IAA-NBz) (IAA-NBz') with ligand, N-benzylisonitrosoacetyl acetone imine (H-IAA-NBz) has been synthesized. This complex is very stable at room temperature and has cis-form and trans-form isomers. The ratio of nickel (Ⅱ) ion and ligand combined is 1 : 2. The elemental analysis, ir, nmr. electronic spectra and mass spectra have been studied. It is suggested from these studies that the isonitroso group of one ligand, H-IAA-NBz coordinates to nickel(Ⅱ)ion through the nitrogen atom to form five-membered ring, while that of the other ligand, H-IAA-NBz coordinates to nickel (Ⅱ) ion through the oxygen atom to form six-membered ring in square-planar complex.

The adsorption behaviors of some oxime compounds well known as metal chelating agents on the Amberlite XAD resins were compared by measuring their distribution coefficients (log Kd) in various media, respectively. Among the oxime compounds, salicylaldoxime (SAO) and $\alpha-benzoinoxime(${\alpha}$-BzO)$ which showed large log Kd values were chosen. The characteristics of XAD-4 resins impregnated with SAO and ${\alpha}$-BzO have been studied to apply them for the adsorption and recovery of minute quantities of metal ions in aqueous solution. The optimum conditions for adsorption of SAO and ${\alpha}$-BzO on the resin were 30% methanol media having pH range of 1~8(for SAO) and 1~9 (for ${\alpha}$-BzO), respectively. The distribution coefficients of two oxime compounds were decreased as temperature increased. From the adsorption enthalpy data of SAO and ${\alpha}$-BzO, ranging from 4.96 to 6.66 Kcal/mol, it is suggested that their adsorption mechanism on XAD-4 resin is likely due to molecular adsorption equivalent to dipole-dipole interaction. The impregnated resins were considerably stable in the aqueous solutions of pH 5.0~10.0 and in 0.1~5M hydrochloric acid solutions. The former is the medium for adsorption of metal ions, while the latter is for recovery of the adsorbed metal ions. The adsorption mole ratio of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) ions on SAO-XAD-4 and ${\alpha}$-BzO-XAD-4 resins were about 1 : 2 at the optimum conditions, respectively. The adsorbed metal ions were recovered completely by eluting with 3M HCl-50% methanol solution

Ligands, Br-PEMP, Cl-PEMP and $CH_3O-PEMP$ having Br, Cl and $CH_3O$ substituents at 5-position of the $N_2O$ tridentate ligand, 2-[(2-pyridine-2-ethylamio)-methyl]-phenol (H-PEMP) containing pyridine and phenol were synthesized. Another ligand, Naph-PEMP having pyridine and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthalene was also synthesized. The ligands were characterized using elemental analysis, UV-visible, IR, $^1H\;NMR\;and\;^{13}C$ NMR spectroscopy and mass analysis. The potentiometric titration study in aqueous solution revealed that the proton dissociation of the ligands occurred in three steps and the order of overall proton dissociation constants (log${\beta}$) was $CH_3O-PEMP$ > Naph-PEMP > H-PEMP > Cl-PEMP > Br-PEMP. The order of stability constants (logML and log$ML_2$) of their transition metal complexes was Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II). The order in their stability constants values of each transition metal complex agreed well with that in overall proton dissociation constant value of the ligands.
