Recycling of wastepaper is very important for the environmental protection. However inferior strength and slower drainage characteristic that are brought by the hornification and the increase of fines respectively limited the increase of wastepaper recycling. The purpose of this study is to obtain some fundamental information that is helpful to develop the technologies which can improve the characteristics of recycled fibers. Softwood bleached kraft pulp was curlated with Hobart mixer at several different consistency. The curlation of fibers can cause the internal fibrillation and decreasing the crystallinity without serious damage of fiber surface. Curl index, kink index, freeness and WRV were increased, but crystallinity was decreased with the increase of curlation consistency.

This study was carried out to simulate the change of various properties of recycled water when zero-discharge system was applied to a KOCC recycling process. contaminants such as chemical oxygen demand, anionic trash, and calcium hardness were gradually increased in the process water as the recycling was repeated . Especially, the increase of anionic trash and COD were closely related to the starch derived from corrugating adhesive in KOCC. Four kinds of water were compared in the preparation of handsheet to evaluate the performance of retention program. Waters used in this work were laboratory tab water, process water from Dong-II mill and the same one treated by UASB process, and closed white water prepared by KRICT. The result revealed that one the major factors fro reducing a retention power was the anioni trash accumulated in the recycled water.

Adsorption of cationic polyacrylamide dry strength resins onto the surface of papermaking fibers and fines is critical for their effective utilization. Since dry strength resins are frequently employed when recycled fibers containing a great deal of fines are used as a raw material, their adsorption characteristic onto the recycled fiber fines is of great importance. In this study, effects of recycling on adsorption characteristics of cationic polyacrylamide onto primary and secondary fines were examined. Never dried bleached hardwood kraft pulp was beaten and dried for recycling. In each recycling step the adsorption characteristic of a cationic PAM onto primary and secondary fines was evaluated by kjeldahl nitrogen analysis method. The influence of recycling on water retention value and carboxyl content along with the sheet density and tensile strength was examined. Secondary fines of never dried pulp adsorbed twice as much of C-PAM as the primary fines, however, the adsorption capacity of the secondary fines decreased rapidly during the course of recycling and showed lower adsorption capacily than primary fines.

The objective of this study was to investigate the enzymatic deinking technology. Office recycled papers such as computer printed out(CPO) and white ledger(WL) were used in the evaluation of four different deinking conditions ; alkaline deinking , neutral deinking and enzymatic deinking at alkaline and neutral pH. Filltering pads were prepared after flotation deinking to measure brighteness gain and ink removal efficiency. Three different surfactants were also used in the evaluation of deinking efficiency including surface chemical properties by measuring foam height and stability, surface tension and cloud point of views. The results indicated that the neutral deinking method with enzyme and surfactant addition showed highest deinking efficiency of office recycled papers.

This paper examines the De-inking characteristics of mechanical methods using the newly developed De-inking machine along with experiments to enhance the manufacture of recycled kraft pulp with the addition of newspaper. This study concluded that : First, the De-Inking ratio was affected by shear stress and friction resistance operating In the stainless steel net. Second, the brightness improvement ratio was raised by 6.2% under the following conditions : 120rpm rotor speed, 2.18% concentration, using two treatment cycles. Third, it was shown that the tearing strength was improved by about 10 to 20% , and the tensile strength remained the same when recycled kraft pulp was added with 20% wasted paper. In sum, by these experiments we have proven that the performance of the newly developed De-inking machine can be improved.

This paper reviews the development condition of nanomaterials used in concrete over years. The definitions of nanomaterial, nanotechnology, and nano-concrete are reviewed. The impacts of nanomaterials on cementitious material in the point of advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. Moreover, this paper analyzes and classifies the nanomaterials into the extra quality enhancement and modification to plain cementitious composite. Indeed, the outstanding properties of the embedded nanomaterials can be introduced to concrete such as the mechanical improvement, pore structure refinement, hydrate acceleration, and smartness modifying of self-cleaning, and/or self-sensing. Before the full potential of nanotechnology can be realized in concrete applications, various techniques have to be solved including proper dispersion, compatibility of the nanomaterials in cement, processing, manufacturing, safety, handling issues, scale-up, cost, the impact on the environment and human health.

This study was performed to investigate the recycling activity of solid waste. Three study area were selected, which were Dobonggu in Seoul, Siheung City and Kimpogun. The amount of recycled out of the solid waste generated was between 0.02 kg per capita/day -0.10 kg per capita/day. The recovery rate of the waste paper was 42.7%, which was the highest, followed by glass bottles, cans and plastics. The waste paper was the most important item concerning its weight percentage and amount of sales. It comprised more than 60% in its weight and sales amount out of the total recycled item. Glass bottles placed the second. Amount of sale for the recycled item was less than 5 Won per capita/day, this is very low. The Recycling Drive Association, a private organization was mainly organized by public administrational basis and its activity was simply concentrated on the reclassification of the collected recyclables. Generally, citizen's participation and the member's satisifaction was low since there was no economic incentives. In this paper, some strategies were suggested and evaluated to increase citizen's recycling activity.
