  • Size -segregated measurements of aerosol composition using 8-stage DRUM impactor are used to determine the transport of natural and anthropogenic aerosols at Gosan site from 29 March to 30 May in 2002. Separation of ambient aerosols by DRUM impactor offers many Advantages over other standard filtration techniques. Some of the most important advantages are the ability to segregate into details by particle tire, to better preserve chemical integrity since the air stream doesn't pars through the deposit, to collect samples as a function of time, and to have a wide variety of impaction surfaces available to match analytical needs. Although the transport of Yellow sand is a well-known phenomenon in springtime, the result of measurement shows that not only soil dust but also anthropogenic aerosols, including sulfur, enriched trace metals such as Pb, Ni, Zn. Cu, Cr, As, Se, Br, are transported to Gosan in springtime. This study combines the size- and time-resolved aerosol composition measurements with isentropic, backward air-mass trajectories in order to identify some potential source regions of anthropogenic aerosols. As a result, during the NYS period, the average concentration of PM$_{10}$ was 46$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥, Si, Al. S, Fe, Cl, K, Ca were higher than 1,000 ng/㎥ and Ti was about 100 ng/㎥. The concentrations of Zn, Mn, Cu. Pb, Br, Rb, V, Cr, Ni. At, Se ranged between 1 and 70 ng/㎥. More than 50% typical soil elements, tuck as Al, Si, Fe, Cd. Ti, Cr, Cu, Br. were distributed in a coarse particle range(5.0-12${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). In other hand, anthropogenic pollutants, luck as S, N, Vi, were mainly distributed in a fine particle range (0.09-0.56${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). During the YS period, PM$_{10}$ increased about 8 times than NYS period, and main soil elements, such as Al, Si, S, K, V, Mn, Fe also doubled in coarse particle range (1.15-12${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). But Zn, As, Pb, Cu and Se, which distributed in the time aerosols (0.09-0.56${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$), were on the same level with or decreased than NYS period. Finally. except the YS Period, coarse particles (2.5-12${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) are inferred to be influenced by soil, coal combustion, waste incineration, ferrous and nonferrous sources through similar pathways with Yellow Sand. But fine particles have different sources, such as coal combustion, gasoline vehicle, biomass burning, oil or coal combustion, nonferrous and ferrous metal sources, which are transported from China, Korea peninsula and local sources.ces.

  • We conducted several different leaching experiments for assessing the potential environmental risk when utilizing recycled concrete for stabilizing bridge pier. The methods include continuous batch leaching test (DIN 38414-S4), availability test (NEN 7341), pH-stat test (CEN/TC 292/WG6) and tank diffusion test (NEN 7345). The concentration ranges vary depending on the testing method. Nearly all the trace elements were low, some elements recording under detection limit. The maximum concentrations for trace elements leached throughout the whole tests are (as mg/L); Cd (0.029), Cu (0.437), Pb (0.14), Ni, Zn (0.95), Hg (0.005). Although the testing methods we used in this study are much more rigorous than other commonly adapted method including TCLP and domestic testing method for solid waste, the trace elemental concentrations are under the criteria for hazardous material set by the TCLP and domestic method. The result seems to suggest that applying the recycled concrete on stream water will be accepatable practice as for as trace elements are concerned. However, the influence of inorganics such as Ca, Mg, Ni and $SO_4^{2-}$ on aquatic ecology should be further examined.

  • 시간과 공간의 구애를 받지 않는 양질의 음성, 화상, 문자정보의 교환을 위한 노력으로 디지털 휴대폰과 휴대용 컴퓨터가 등장하면서 음성과 문자정보의 교환분야에 커다란 진보를 이룩하였다. 그러나 현재는 휴대폰이 음성정보에 문자정보교환이 추가된 상황이기 때문에, 아직도 관련 정보교환기술 및 기기개발이 진행되고 있다. 앞으로 휴대폰과 휴대용 컴퓨터의 기능을 통합하고 화상정보까지 결합된 휴대용 정보기기를 위해서는 전자회로의 집적화 및 통신속도 증대가 필수적이다. 또한 이들 휴대용 정보기기를 구동시키기 위한 전력도 증가될 것으로 예측되기 때문에, 현재 전원으로 사용되는 2차전지보다 에너지 밀도가 더욱 증패된 전지가 요구될 것으로 예상된다. 그리고 내연기관의 배기에 의해 발생되는 환정오염문제를 해결하기 위한 방법중의 일환으로 전기자동차 개발이 진행되고 있으며, 이들 전기자동차에 2차전지를 장착하기 위해서 경제성이 있고, 고속충전이 가능하고, 안전성이 높은 고에너지 밀도의 2차 전지 개발이 요구되고 있다. 현재 2차전지는 음극재료나 양극재료에 따라 낚축전지, 니켈/카드륨(Ni/Cd) 전지, 니켈/수소(Ni/MH) 전지, 라륨 2 차전지등이 있으며, 전극재료의 고유특성에 의해 전위와 애너지 밀도가 결정된다. 특히 리튬 2차전지는 리튬의 낮은 산화환원전위와 분자량으로 인해 에너지 밀도가 높기 때문에 앞에서 언급한 휴대용 전자기기의 구동전원으로 많이 사용되고 있다. 리튬 2차전지는 음극 재료가 금속리튬인 경우는 리튬금속으로, 탄소재료인 경우는 리튬이온이라 하며, 한편으로 전해질이 고체 고분자이거나 혹은 역체 유기용매와 리튬염을 고분자와 혼성시킨 겔(gel)인 경우는 고분자로, 전해짙이 리튬염이 전리되어 있는 유동성 액체일 경우는 고분자를 생략하여 구분하고 있다. 즉 리튬금속 2 차전지(LB), 리튬이온 2 차전지(LIB), 리튬금속 고분자 2차전지(LPB), 리튬 이온 고분자 2차전지(LIPB)로 크게 구분된다. 금속리듐을 음극으로 사용하고 전해질로는 리튬염이 전리되어 있는 액체유기용매 를 사용한 리튬금속 2차전지는, 금속리튬전극이 충방전 과정을 반복하면서, 전리된 리튬이 균일하게 산화환원되지 못하고 표변에서 양극방향으로 성장하는 수지상 (dendrite) 현상으로 인해 안전성 확보에 문게가 있었다. 리튬과 알루미늄 합금형태로 음극에 사용한 동전형 전지는 상용화 되었지만, 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위해 리튬이온이 금속으로 석활되는 환원반응전위보다 높은 전위에서 전극재료가 충전되면서 리튬이온이 저장되고, 방전되면서 배출되는 탄소를 음극재료로, 그리고 리튬이온이 충방 전시 가역적으로 삼입 탈리되는 층상의 리튬금속산화물을 양극으로 구성하고, 엑체 전해질과 다공성 고분자 분리막을 사용한 것이 LIB이다. LIB에서 리튬이온의 이동이 가능한 액체전해질의 가능을 고분자 전해질이 대신함으로서 보다 높은 안정성을 확보 한 전지가 LIPB 이다. 또한 고분자 전해질을 사용한 경우 금속리튬상에서의 수지상 성장이 저하되는 현상이 관찰됨으로서, 이론용량이 3,860mAh/g 에 달하는 리튬금속 혹은 합금을 고분자 전지에서 음극으로 사용하고자 하는 2 차전지가 LPB 이다. 리튬 2차전지는 비록 1989년 액체전해질을 사용한 금속리튬 2차전지의 실패전력을 안고있지만 궁극적으로는 이론적으로 최대의 에너지밀도를 가지고 있는 LPB를 지 향할 것으로 예상되지만 가까운 장래에 실현되기는 어려울 것이다. 따라서 향후의 라튬 2차전지의 전개방향은 현재의 LIB를 고분자 전해질을 채용하는 LIPB로 진행시커면서 저가의 전극재료개발을 지속적으로 추진할 것으로 예상된다. 현재 리튬 2차전지는 소형전지에 국한되고 있지만 전기자동차나 전력저장용으로 이를 대형화시커기 위해서는 열적특성이 우수하고 저가인 전극재료개발이 선행되야하기 때문에, 저가의 탄소재료와 코발트산화물을 대신할 수 있는 철, 망칸 또는 니켈산 화물의 개발이 필요하다.

  • We measured the concentrations of organic matter and metallic elements (Al, Fe, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Pb and Hg) in the surface sediments of Masan Harbor (in the southern sea, Korea) to evaluate the geochemical characters of sediment and the pollutions by organic matter and metallic elements. The mean grain size of the surface sediments in the study area ranged from $5.6{\phi}$ to $7.8{\phi}$, indicating silt sediment. The water content of the surface sediments exceeded 60% except at some stations. The contents of ignition loss (IL), total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN) ranged from 7.2-14.3%, 1.2-3.2%, and 0.10-0.28%, respectively. Based on the C/N ratios, the organic matter in the surface sediments of Masan Harbor may originate from terrigenous sources including fluvial inputs (mainly sewage in urban areas). The chemical oxygen demand (COD) and acid volatile sulfide (AVS) ranged from $11.3-29.9\;mgO_2/g\;dry$ and 0.20-4.47 mgS/g dry, respectively, and low concentrations were observed near a shipping route. In addition, the concentrations of metallic elements showed large spatial variations in Masan Harbor and the distributions of metallic elements were also comparable to those of organic matter. This implies that the distributions of organic matter and metallic elements in the surface sediments of Masan Harbor are mainly controlled by biogenic matter and artificial action (mainly dredging). In addition, we calculated the enrichment facto. (EF) and geoaccumulation index (Igeo) in order to evaluate pollution by metallic elements. The enrichment of metallic elements relative to Al was three to eighteen times higher at the study sites, compared to levels in the Earth's crust except for Fe, Ni and Mn. In addition, the Igeo class indicated that the surface sediments in the study area were moderately to strongly polluted in terms of metallic elements.

  • Fractional composition and mobility of some heavy metals in sediments from Okdong stream are investigated. The fractional scheme for heavy metals in the sediment was established for five chemically defined heavy metal forms as adsorbed fraction, carbonate fraction, reducible fraction, organic fraction, and residual fraction. The most abundant fraction heavy metals in the sediments is reducible and secondly abundant is organic fraction. Adsorbed fraction is minor part of the total heavy metals. Mobilization of heavy metals in the sediments from Okdong stream occur $19.8{\sim}56.7%$ of total cadmium concentrate. The most abundant fraction of the sediment metal is organic fraction in Cu, Pb metals investigated. Labile fraction of sediment metals are $0.5{\sim}48.5%$ of total Zn, $2.6{\sim}48.1%$ of total Pb, and $0.2{\sim}36.9%$ of total Cu, respectively. Most of labile fraction consists of reducible fraction for Cd, Zn, adsorbed fraction for Pb, reducible fraction for Cu, adsorbed fraction for Ni. The Mobilization of Zn and Cu is most likely to occur when oxygen depletes and that of Pb and Ni occurs when physical impact, oxygen depletion and pH reduction.

  • The aim of this study was to investigate the accumulation of metallic elements and the control effect of marine pollution caused by ocean dumping in the sediments at a waste disposal area in the Yellow Sea. In July 2009, concentrations of organic matter and metallic elements (Al, Fe, As, Cd, Cr, Co, Hg, Ni, Mn, Pb, and Zn) were measured in surface sediments at the site. The ignition loss (IL) in the surface sediments showed a mean value of 15.4%, about 1.5 times higher than the mean value of the sediments in the coastal areas of Korea. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) at some disposal sites exceeded 20 mg $O_2/g{\cdot}dry$, which signifies the initial concentration of marine sediment pollutants in Japan. The disposal sites contain higher concentrations of Cr, Cu and Zn than the sediments of bays and estuaries that might be contaminated. The magnitude of both metal enrichment factors (EF) and adverse biological effects suggest that pollution with Cr and Ni occurred due to the dumping of waste in the study area. In addition, the geoaccumulation index (Igeo) showed that the surface sediments were moderately contaminated. By the mid-2000s, when the amount of waste dumped at this site was the highest, the concentration of metallic elements was higher than ever recorded. On the other hand, in 2008-09, the need for environmental management was relatively low compare with the peak. As a result, the quality of marine sediment has been enhanced, considering the effect of waste reduction and natural dilution in the disposal area.

  • The variation of shapes and related properties of ZnO nanostructures grown on the metal pattern and Si substrate have been investigated. Ni, Cr metal patterns were formed on Si (111) substrates by e-beam evaporation, and ZnO nanostructures were fabricated on it by using thermal evaporation of Zn powder in air. Growth temperature was controlled from 500 $^{\circ}$C to 700 $^{\circ}$C. When the growth temperature was relatively low, no considerable effect was found. However, UV emission intensity decreased, and Green-emission intensity, which is regarded as originated from the defect state in the ZnO nanostructure, increased as growth temperature increase. Also, the variation of nanostructure shape at high temperature (700 $^{\circ}$C) is understood in terms of the enhanced incorporation of metal vapor during the nanostructure formation.

  • Enviromental geochemisty and heary metal contamination at the Kongjueil mine creek were underaken on the basis of physicohemical properties and mineralogy for various kinds of water (surface, mine and ground water),soil, precipitate and sediment collected of April and December in 1998. Hydrgeochemical composition of the water samples are characterized by relatively significant enricant of Ca+Na, alkiali ions $NO_3$ and Cl inground and surfore water, wheras the mine waters are relatively eneripheral water of the mining creek have the characteristics of the (Ca+Mg)-$(HCO_3+SO_4)$type. The pH of the mine water is high acidity (3.24)and high EC (613$\mu$S/cm)compared with those of surface and ground water. The range of $\delta$D and $\delta^{18}O$ values (relative to SMOW) in the waters are shpwn in -50.2 to -61.6% and -7.0 to -8.6$\textperthousand$(d value=5.8 to 8.7). Using computer program, saturation index of albite, calcite, dolomite in mine water are nearly saturated. The gibbiste, kaolinite and smectite are superaturated in the surface and ground water, respectively. Calculated water-mineral reaction and stabilities suggest that weathing of silicate minerals may be stable kaolinite owing to the continuous water-rock reaction. Geochemical modeling showed that mostly toxic heavy metals may exist larfely in the from of metal-sulfate $(MSO_4\;^2)$and free metal $(M^{2+})$ in nmine water. These metals in the ground and surface water could be formed of $CO_3$ and OH complex ions. The average enrichment indices of water samples are 2.72 of the groundwater, 2.26 of the surface water and 14.15 of the acid mine water, normalizing by surface water composition at the non-mining creek, repectively. Characteristics of some major, minor and rate earth elements (Al/Na, K/Na, V/Ni, Cr/V, Ni/Co, La/Ce, Th/Yb, $La_N/Yb_N$, Co/Th, La/Sc and Sc/Th) in soil and sediment are revealed a narrow range and homogeneous compositions may be explained by acidic to intermediate igneous rocks. And these suggested that sediment source of host granitic gneiss colud be due to rocks of high grade metamorphism originated by sedimentary rocks. Maximum concentrations of environmentally toxic elements in sediment and soil are Fe=53.80 wt.% As=660, Cd=4, Cr=175, Cu=158, Mn=1010, Pb=2933, Sb=4 and Zn=3740 ppm, and extremely high concentrations are found are found in the subsurface soil near the ore dump and precipitates. Normalizing by composition of host granitic gneiss, the average enerichment indices are 3.72 of the sediments, 3.48 of the soils, 10.40 of the precipitates of acid mine drainage and 6.25 of the soils near the main adit. The level of enerichment was very severe in mining drainage sediments, while it was not so great in the soils. mineral composition of soil and sediment near the mining area were partly variable being composed of quartz, mica, feldspar, chlorite, vermiculite, bethierin and clay minerals. reddish variable being composed of quartz, mica, feldspar, chlorite, vermiculite, bethierin and clay minerals. Reddish brown precipitation mineral in the acid mine drainage identifies by schwertmanite. From the separated mineralgy, soil and sediment are composed of some pyrite, arsenopyite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena, malachite, goethite and various kinds of hydroxied minerals.

  • Atmospheric dry deposition fluxes and size segregated concentrations of particulate metal elements were measured at four sites in Kunpo, a small city in the Seoul metropolitan area in Korea. At each site, aerosol samples were collected by dry deposition plates, a cascade impactor, and a coarse panicle rotary impactor during four sampling periods. At all sites, the average fluxes of metals measured during daytime were higher than nighttime fluxes due to higher wind speeds and higher ambient concentrations during daytime. The average fluxes of crustal elements (Al, Ca) were 1∼2 orders of magnitude higher than anthropogenic elements (As, Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn). The daytime fluxes of Al and Ca were between 90 and 12000 $\mu\textrm{g}$ m$\^$-2/ day$\^$-1/, and the nighttime fluxes of Al and Ca were between 20 and 2200 $\mu\textrm{g}$ m$\^$-2/ day$\^$-1/. The daytime fluxes of Pb, a typical anthropogenic element, were between 20 and 160$\mu\textrm{g}$ m$\^$-2/ day$\^$-1/, and the nighttime fluxes of Pb were between ND and 100$\mu\textrm{g}$ m$\^$-2/ day$\^$-1/. Also the ambient metal concentrations during daytime were higher than nighttime. Based on a dust emission estimation study in Kunpo, it was found that dust emissions during daytime are higher than nighttime. The concentrations of crustal elements were higher than anthropogenic elements. The distributions of heavy metals were mainly in small particles (D$\_$p/ 9㎛). The fraction of crustal elements in the large particles (D$\_$p/> 9㎛) were higher than anthropogenic elements.
