Mass and elemental dry deposition fluxes and ambient particle size distributions were measured using dry deposition plates and a cascade impactor, from March to November 1998 in Seoul, Korea. During the spring sampling period several yellow sand events characterized by long range transport from China and Mongolia impacted the area. During these events the mass fluxes were statistically the same as during springtime non-yellow-sand events. However, most elemental fluxes were higher. In general, the flux ratios of both crustal (Al, Ca, Mn) and anthropogenic elements (Ni, Pb) to total mass measured during the daytime yellow-sand events were substantially higher than those measured in spring daytime during non-yellow-sand time periods. During all seasons the average measured daytime fluxes were about two times higher than at nighttime. The flux of primarily anthropogenic metals (Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn) and Mn was on average one to two orders of magnitude lower than the flux of the crustal metals Al and Ca. As is typically found two modes, fine (0.1∼l.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$) and coarse (1.0∼10.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$) were present in the measured size distributions (<10 $\mu\textrm{m}$). The particles in the coarse mode constitute a major portion of the measured mass size distribution during the yellow-sand events possibly due to the long-range transport of those particles from China.

This study was to execute the experiment for analyzing the quality characteristics of mortar by type of recycled sand by using the recycled sand produced by the manufacturing system by wet gravity separation in order to develop the removal device of impurities for the production of high-quality recycled sand. As a result, this study has sown that the mortar using the high-quality recycled sand through the manufacturing system by wet gravity separation in the fluidity property, strength property, and shrinkage property largely, compared with the mortar using low-quality recycled sand that not passed the device of sand flux. There was a tendency similar to the plane mortar. In conclusion, it was considered as various quality performances of the recycled sand were improved through the production stage of prototype.

In this study, recently it has to be solved urgently the unbalance of demand and supply about the fine aggregate because the sea sand is restricted by exhaustion of river sand and intensification of environmental law. In this background, manufacturing technology which can produce recycled sand from construction and demolition waste concrete mass is developed. However, the existed washing method has the problem which not only impurities but also many other things make poor quality. Therefore, it tries to conform in time necessity, the objective of this study is to develop the Sand Flux system which can product the high-quality recycled sand from wast concrete and high value-added technology of the high-quality recycled sand as basic materials for mortar and concrete. At the same time it will be able to improve the quality of recycled sand products as an experiment of the physical nature and a quality present condition the products of recycled sand from construction waste.

A computer simulation model of various smelting process for melting waste sand was developed by using energy and material balance concept. This model can predict the coal, flux and oxygen consumption and the volume and temperature of off-gas. The major critical variables for smelting process can be explained by using the analysis of energy and material balance. The major conclusions were as follows; 1. The most important variables for smelting process were high post-combustion ratio, high heat transfer efficiency and refractory protection technology. 2. For saving energy in this smelting process, selection of raw materials i.e coal, flux are very important, espacially using of low volatile coal is very profitable. 3. The treatment cost of waste sand is high and environmental restriction is severe, in this reason we must be concerned in the treatment of waste sand by smelting process.

An experiment was performed to study the heat pipe phenomenon of porous media heated above at one-dimensional steady state for the range of heat flux, 300 W/ $m^{2}$ ~ 2000w/ $m^{2}$. Glass beads, sand, and copper particles were used as porous media and distilled water was used as a working fluid. Result of experiment shows that the length of the two-phase zone increases with the decreasing particle size for the same heat flux. At relatively lower heat flux the length of the two-phase zone increases with the increasing heat flux, which contradicts the result of earlier work. However, its length remains nearly constant when the heat flux increases above a certain value. The length of the two-phase zone is proportional to the product of the heat flux by the hydrostatic capillary height under the limited value on heat flux, that is, $l_{t}$ = A(q. $l_{cap}$)+B, q.leg.1/A(C+B/ $l_{cap}$) where A is 1.7*10$^{-4}$ $m^{2}$/w, B is 1.9*10$^{-2}$ m, and C is 0.43 for copper particles and 0.31 for glass beads and sand.d.d.d.

Turbulent wind flow over hilly terrains has been extensively investigated in the scientific literature and main findings have been included in technical standards. In particular, turbulent wind flow over nominally two-dimensional hills is often adopted as a benchmark to investigate wind turbine siting, estimate wind loading, and dispersion of particles transported by the wind, such as atmospheric pollutants, wind-driven rain, windblown snow. Windblown sand transport affects human-built structures and natural ecosystems in sandy desert and coastal regions, such as transport infrastructures and coastal sand dunes. Windblown sand transport taking place around any kind of obstacle is rarely in equilibrium conditions. As a result, the modelling of windblown sand transport over complex orographies is fundamental, even if seldomly investigated. In this study, the authors present a wind-sand tunnel test campaign carried out on a nominally two-dimensional sinusoidal hill. A first test is carried out on a flat sand fetch without any obstacle to assess sand transport in open field conditions. Then, a second test is carried out on the hill model to assess the sand flux overcoming the hill and the morphodynamic evolution of the sand sedimenting over its upwind slope. Finally, obtained results are condensed into a dimensionless parameter describing its sedimentation capability and compared with values resulting from other nominally two-dimensional obstacles from the literature.
