A new technique for recycling process water was developed in order to reduce the calcium hardness of the closed OCC recycling system. Calcium ions present in the white water were precipitated as calcium carbonate by a reaction with sodium carbonate and the CaCO$_3$precipitates were easily removed from the system by a dissolved air flotation(DAF) method. After the DAF stage, CO$_2$-gas was purged into the water because the pH of Na$_2$CO$_3$-treated white water was reduced to neutral by CO$_2$gas. Since CaCO$_3$precipitate tends to stick onto the fine fiber surface and then is selectively removed from the water, a proper amount of suspended solid in the process water acts as an important factor in deciding the removal efficiency. By the application of Na$_2$CO$_3$addition - DAF - CO$_2$purging to the short circulated white water the calcium hardness was significantly reduced by 92% and more. The removal of calcium ions with fine fibers led to drainage improvement, reduction of fresh water consumption, and enhanced efficiency of wet-end chemicals.

A KALIMER-600 concept which is a type of sodium-cooled fast reactor, has been developed at KAERI. It uses sodium as a primary coolant and is a pool-type reactor to enhance safety. Also, a supercritical carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) Brayton cycle is considered as an alternative to an energy conversion system to eliminate the sodium water reaction and to improve efficiency. In this study, a simplified model for analyzing the thermodynamic performance of the KALIMER-600 coupled with a supercritical $CO_2$ Brayton cycle was developed. To develop the analysis model, a commercial modular modeling system (MMS) was adopted as a base engine, which was developed by nHance Technology in USA. It has a convenient graphical user interface and many component modules to model the plant. A new user library for thermodynamic properties of sodium and supercritical $CO_2$ was developed and attached to the MMS. In addition, some component modules in the MMS were modified to be appropriate for analysis of the KALIMER-600 coupled with the supercritical $CO_2$ cycle. Then, a simplified performance analysis code was developed by modeling the KALIMER-600 plant with the modified MMS. After evaluating the developed code with each component data and a steady state of the plant, a simple power reduction and recovery event was evaluated. The results showed an achievable capability for a performance analysis code. The developed code will be used to develop the operational strategy and some control logics for the operation of the KALIMER-600 with a supercritical $CO_2$ Brayton cycle after further studies of analyzing various operational events.

Hi Air Korea and Hanwha ocean are currently developing an Onboard Carbon dioxide Capture System (OCCS) to absorb CO₂ emitted from ship's engine using a sodium hydroxide(NaOH) solution, and converting the resulting salt into a solid form through a chemical reaction with calcium oxide (CaO). The system process involves the following steps; 1)The reaction of CO₂ gas absorption in water, 2)The reaction between carbonic acid (H₂CO₃) and NaOH solution to produce carbonate or bicarbonate, and 3)The reaction between carbonate or bicarbonate and CaO to form calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). And ultimately, the solid material, CaCO₃, is separated and discharged using a separator. The OCCS has been installed on an ship and the test results have confirmed significant reduction effects of CO₂ in the ship's exhaust gas. A portion of the exhaust gas emitted from the engine was transferred to the OCCS using a blower. The flow rate of the transferred gas ranged from 800 to 1384 m³/hr, and the CO₂ concentration in the exhaust gas was 5.1 vol% for VLSFO, 3.7 vol% for LNG and a 12 wt% NaOH solution was used. The results showed a CO₂ capture efficiency of approximately 42.5 to 64.1 vol% and the CO₂ capture rate approximately 48.4 to 52.2kg/hr. Additionally, to assess the impact of the discharged CaCO₃on the marine ecosystem, we conducted "marine ecotoxicity test" and performed Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis to evaluate the dispersion and dilution of the discharged effluent.

Nano-Sized TiO$_2$ particles with diameter between 2 and 5 nm are synthesized in Water/Triton X-100/n-Hexane microemulsion. Particles show the amorphous structure and partially hydroxide form. The optical absorbance of particles appears at 250nm and band edge at 340nm. Gold metal is deposited on the surface of TiO$_2$ particles by reduction reaction of Au(III) ion with sodium hypophosphite. The size of gold-deposited particles is 20nm, and the optical absorbance appears at 270nm and at 550nm. So particles show the red color. The dense precipitation is formed by aggregation in the TiO$_2$ nano-sized particles of about 5nm size. But the bulky precipitation is formed by agglomeration phenomena in the gold-deposited particles of 20nm size. And also gold-deposited particles is easily dispersed by being re-dispersed in PEG/Water solution. This study has compared those things measuring the SPF characteristics of the cosmetics made of the synthesized particles. If the particle size is controlled appropriately, then the SPF value will be higher, or more colorless cosmetics will be made.

상토에 함유된 Na이온이 과채류의 육묘에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 온도조건에 따른 상토의 수분변화, Na이온 및 EC의 경시적 변화, 광합성율, 증산율, 잎의 수분상태, 묘소질, 생육 및 수량성에 대한 실험을 실시하였다. 육묘온도가 $15^{\circ}C$에서는 상토의 수분감소는 적어 3일이 경과하더라도 관수개시점에 도달하지 않았다. 관수 1시간 후 부터 상토로부터 Na 이온이 유리되어 22시간이 지날 때 까지 Na의 농도가 계속 증가하였으며 Na 함량의 증가에 따라 EC의 상승이 있었다. 또한 관수회수가 증가함에 따라 Na의 세탈에 따른 Na 농도가 감소되었고 Na 농도감소에 비해 EC의 감소폭은 적은 편이었다. 양이온 비율중 Na 함량이 60% 이상일 경우 저온에서는 광합성율, 증산율의 감소가 큰 편이었고 포화수분부족도 또한 저온에서 큰 폭으로 높아졌다. Na 함량이 높은 상토에서 육묘된 오이묘는 초장, 세근수 등이 대조상토에 비해 낮은 편이었고 본포 정식후에도 생육이 불량하여 48%정도의 수량감소를 초래하였다.

본 연구에서는 플라이애시와 고로슬래그시멘트를 혼합한 결합재에 알칼리 활성화제와 해수 및 증류수를 사용하여 제작한 경화된 시편에 대해 물리적 및 미세구조 특성을 분석하였다. 플라이애시와 고로슬래그시멘트의 결합재 혼합 중량비는 6:4, 7:3 및 8:2로 하였으며, 수산화나트륨과 규산나트륨을 결합재의 각각 5wt%로 하여 활성화제로 사용하였다. 재령 3, 7 및 28일에 대해 압축강도 및 흡수율을 측정하였으며, 재령 28일에 XRD, TGA 및 MIP 시험을 실시하였다. 배합수의 종류와 관계없이, 알칼리 활성화된 결합재는 고로슬래그시멘트 혼합비가 증가할수록 ettringite 및 C-S-H의 생성량이 많아졌으며, 또한 50 nm 보다 큰 공극들이 줄어듦에 따라 압축강도가 높아지는 결과를 보여주었다. 본 연구의 모든 배합에 대해서 공통적으로 확인된 반응생성물로는 C-S-H, $Ca(OH)_2$ 및 calcite인 것으로 나타났다. 해수를 사용한 시편들과 증류수를 사용한 시편들 내에 생성된 주요 반응생성물의 차이는 hydrocalumite인 것으로 나타났다. 각각의 결합재 혼합 중량비에 대해서 증류수 및 해수 사용에 따른 시편들의 압축강도에서는 배합수로 해수가 사용되더라도 증류수가 사용된 시편과 대체적으로 유사한 강도발현을 나타내었으며, 또한 재령에 따른 강도증진율이 증류수가 사용된 시편보다 뛰어난 경우도 확인되었다. 배합수로서의 해수 사용은 해수에 함유되어 있는 염화 이온(Cl-)이 결합되면서 생성된 hydrocalumite가 공극을 매우면서 시편 내의 총공극용적을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.

For environmental remediation of a contaminated groundwater plume, the use of zero-valent metal represents one of the latest innovative technologies. In this study, the effects of denitrification by zero-valent iron adsorbed in mesoporous silicas have been studied for groundwater contaminant degradation. The mesoporous silica was functionalized with 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) ligands and the zero-valent iron precipitated in the mesopore of granular silica was made by $FeCl_2$ and $NaBH_4$. Hydrogen was exchanged with $Fe^{2+}$ ions in the granular silicas. And then the ions were reduced by sodium borohydride in the mesoporous silicas. The surface area of the silica determined via the BET method ranged from 858 to $1275m^2/g$. The reductive reaction of nitrate-nitrogen indicated that the degradation of nitrate-nitrogen appeared to be pseudo first-order with the observed reaction rate constant kobs ($0.1619h^{-1}$) and to be directly proportional to the specific surface area. Therefore, the mesoporous silica with nano zero-valent iron proposed as a novel treatment strategy for contaminated groundwater was successfully implemented herein for the removal of nitrate-nitrogen.

영가 철을 이용한 질산성 질소 환원에 대한 연구는 지금까지 활발히 진행되어 왔지만, 이 반응에서 생성된 암모늄 부산물에 대한 적절한 처리과정은 아직 보고되지 않았다. 하지만, 암모늄은 먹는 물 수질기준에 의해 지하수 오염물로 분류되고 있어 (허용치 0.5 mg-N/L), 질산성 질소로 오염된 지하수 정화에 영가 철을 단독으로 사용하는 것에는 한계가 있다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 질산성 질소를 환원함과 동시에 이 과정에서 발생하는 암모늄을 제거할 수 있는 반응물질을 개발하는데 있다. 본 연구에 사용한 Fe-loaded zeolite는, 제올라이트와 Fe(II) 용액을 교반시켜 제올라이트 구조 안으로 Fe(II)를 흡착유도하고, 이를 sodium borohydride로 환원하는 과정을 통해 제작되었다. Fe-loaded zeolite 제작에 사용된 Fe(II) 용액의 농도를 실험을 통해 산정하고, 이를 통해 Fe-loaded zeolite를 제작한 후, Fe-loaded zeolite의 질산성 질소 제거 성능을 확인하기 위해 두 가지 pH조건에서 회분식 실험을 수행하였다. 80시간의 반응을 통해 Fe-loaded zeolite는 초기 pH가 3.3인 경우 약 $60\%$의 질산성 질소를, pH가 6인 경우는 약 $40\%$의 질산성 질소를 제거하였고, 암모늄 부산물은 전혀 검출되지 않았다. 영가 철의 경우, 각 초기 pH조건에서 Fe-loaded zeolite보다 뛰어난 질산성 질소 제거성능을 보였지만, 반응 후 상당량의 암모늄 부산물을 생성하였다. 질산성 질소와 암모늄을 포함한 질소(-N)제거 효능의 관점에서 Fe-loaded zeolite의 경우 pH 3.3과 6의 경우에서 각각 $60\%$와 $40\%$의 제거효율을 보인 반면, 영가 철의 제거효율은 무시할만한 수준으로 나타났다.

1. Production of the artificial zeolite from coal ash Coal fly ash is mainly composed of several oxides including $SiO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$ derived from inorganic compounds remained after burning. As minor components, $Fe_2O_3$ and oxides of Mg, Ca, P, Ti (trace) are also contained in the ash. These components are presented as glass form resulting from fusion in the process of the combustion of coal. In other word, coal ash may refer to a kind of aluminosilicate glass that is known to easily change to zeolite-like materials by hydrothermal reaction. Lots of hot seawater is disposing near thermal power plants after cooling turbine generator periodically. Using seawater in the hydrothermal reaction caused to produce low price artificial zeolite by reduction of sodium hydroxide consumption, heating energy and water cost. As coal ash were reacted hydrothermally, peaks of quartz and mullite in the ash were weakened and disappeared, and new Na-Pl peaks were appeared strengthily. Si-O-Si bonding of the bituminous coal ash was changed to Si-O-Al (and $Fe^{3+}$) bonding by the reaction. Therefore the produced Na-Pl type zeolite had high CEC of 276.7 $cmol^+{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ and well developed molecular sieve structure with low concentration of heavy metals. 2. Utilization of the artificial zeolite in agro-environment The artificial zeolite(1g) could remove 123.5 mg of zinc, 164.7 mg copper, 184.4 mg cadmium and 350.6 mg lead in the synthetic wastewater. The removability is higher 2.8 times in zinc, 3.3 times in copper, 4.7 times in cadmium and 4.8 times in lead than natural zeolite and charcoal powder. When the heavy metals were treated at the ratio of 150 $kg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ to the rice plant, various growth inhibition were observed; brownish discoloration and death of leaf sheath, growth inhibition in culm length, number of panicles and grains, grain ripening and rice yield. But these growth inhibition was greatly alleviated by the application of artificial zeolite, therefore, rice yield increased $1.1{\sim}3.2$ times according to the metal kind. In addition, the concentration of heavy metals in the brown rice also lowered by $27{\sim}75%$. Artificial Granular Zeolites (AGZ) was developed for the purification of wastewater. Canon exchange capacity was 126.8 $cmol^+{\cdot}kg^{-1}$. AGZ had Na-Pl peaks mainly with some minor $C_3S$ peaks in X-ray diffractogram. In addition, AGZs had various pore structure that may be adhere the suspended solid and offer microbiological niche to decompose organic pollutants. AGZ could remove ammonium, orthophosphate and heavy metals simultaneously. Mixing ratio of artificial zeolite in AGZs was related positively with removal efficiency of $NH_4\;^+$ and negatively with that of $PO_4\;^{3-}$. Root growth of rice seedling was inhibited severely in the mine wastewater because of strong acidity and high concentration of heavy metals. As AGZ(1 kg) stayed in the wastewater(100L) for 4days, water quality turned into safely for agricultural usage and rice seedlings grew normally.
