Pig slurry has been considered as environmental waste to be treated in an appropriate manner. Recently, there has been the movement toward reusing the pig slurry as an alternative fertilizer sources for agricultural lands. For instance, SCB(Slurry Composting & Biofiltration) liquid fertilizer has been developed and widely used in Korea. However, the impacts of swine slurry liquid fertilizers on both agricultural environment and crop yield have not been investigated yet. Therefore, the current study was conducted to accumulate the basic data which can be subsequently used to determine appropriate application amount of swine slurry liquid fertilizers (SCB liquid fertilizer and storage liquid fertilizer) as well as the application method for each liquid fertilizer. For this, growth of rice was cultivated under the treatment of SCB liquid fertilizer, storage liquid fertilizer, and chemical fertilizer. Also, control treatment (no fertilizer) was included for comparison and all treatments were conducted in five replication. Rice growth was good with the treatment in the order of chemical fertilizer>storage liquid fertilizer>SCB liquid fertilizer>control and likewise, the yield amount of rice straw was in the same order of rice growth. The rice yield amount appeared to be no difference among the treatment except control which showed the least yield amount. Also there was no difference in nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in rice among the treatment except control which showed the least concentration.

The effects of solid and dispersant concentration was investigated by wet-sieving method for knowing the amount of coarse particle in fine powders. In the work alumina powders, sodium hexametaphosphate and sodium polyacrylate were used for preparing slurry. It was confirmed that the coarse particle mass increased by increasing alumina concentration and decreasing dispersant concentration. With systematic measurements we know that the alumina powder and dispersant of one weight percent(1.0wt%) were proper quantity for coarse particle mass measuring, respectively. Sodium polyacrylate as dispersant showed higher coarse particle mass than sodium hexametaphosphate. The sieve mass was decreased according to increase of experiment number. Based on experiments it was considered that wet-sieving method is good tool for measuring a coarse particle mass in fine powders.

This study investigates the effect of fermentable carbohydrate on the concentration of odorous compounds in pig slurry. Four types of pig diet were studied: control, peanut hull (crude fiber 29.87, NDF 44.02%), golden fiber (crude fiber 48.77, NDF 65.88%), and almond hull (crude fiber 44.30, NDF 64.44%). Pigs (average BW 37.0 kg) were fed diets that met the Korean Feeding Standard (2012) and their excreta samples were collected from the slurry pits. Levels of volatile organic compounds (phenols and indoles) and volatile fatty acids were analyzed by gas chromatography. Phenol level was the lowest (p<0.05) in golden fiber (33.26 ppm) group and the highest in control (97.29 ppm). The concentration of indoles in the peanut hull (1.27 ppm), almond hull (1.20 ppm), and golden fiber (1.02 ppm) groups was lower (p < 0.05) than that of control (1.79 ppm). Levels of short chain fatty acid (SCFA) were lower (p < 0.05) in golden fiber (1,319 ppm) and almond hull (1,433 ppm) groups than in control (1,893 ppm). Concentration of branched chain fatty acid (BCFA) in the golden fiber group (74 ppm) was lower (p < 0.05) than that of control (98 ppm). Taken together, the concentration levels of phenols, indoles, and VFAs decreased on addition of peanut hull, golden fiber or almond hull to the diet, suggesting that fermentable carbohydrate may contribute to reducing odorous compounds in pig slurry.

Batch slurry experiments were conducted to develop cement/slag/Fe(II) system that could treat hazardous liquid wastes containing halogenated organic solvents. Portland cement in combination with Fe(II) was reported to reductively dechlorinate chlorinated organics in a modified solidification/stabilization process. TCE (trichloroethylene) was used a model halogenated organic solvent. The objectives of this study were to assess the feasibility of using cement and steel converter slag amended with Fe(II) as a low cost abiotic reductive dechlorination and to investigate the kinetics of TCE dechlorination over a wide range of TCE concentration. From the result of screening experiments, cement/slag/Fe(II) system was identified as a potentially effective system to treat halogenated organic solvent. Kinetic studies were carried out to further investigate degradation reaction of TCE NAPL (Non Aqueous Phase Liquids) in cement/slag/Fe(II) systems by using batch slurry reactors. Degradation rate of TCE solution in this system can be explained by pseudo-first-order rate law because the prediction with the rate law is in good agreement with the observed data.

This experiment was performed to develop the new desulfurization process which can eliminate the possibility of generation of the secondary pollutants by regenerating the limestone from the sulfite/sulfate slurry generated from the wet lime/limestone flue gas desulfurization process by treating it with the ammonium hydroxide and carbon dioxide and using it again. In the experiments, regent grade calcium carbonate was dissolved to obtain the 200ml of sample slurry of the concentration of 2.0~0.4 weight percent. After three times of regeneration and desulfurization process, the coefficients of regeneration and desulfurization efficiencies are calculated/measured. The obtained results are that the coefficients of generation of the first. second, and third regenerated calcium carbonate were 90.88, 92.13, and 91.50%, respectively; and the desulfurization efficiencies of those are 93.4, 94.2 and 93.0%, respectively.

Metallurgical grade silicon was recovered from slurry waste for ingot sawing process by acid leaching and thermal treatment. SiC abrasive was removed by gravity concentration and centrifugation. Metal impurities were removed by the acid leaching using HF/HCl. The remaining SiC was separated by the thermal treatment at $1600^{\circ}C$ in an inert atmosphere by the difference in melting points. The purity of the obtained silicon was found to be around 99.7%.

Recently, a thermal energy storage system has been developed actively fur the purpose of saving energy and reducing the peak electrical demand. Especially, ice slurry is a promising working fluid for low temperature energy storage systems. A flow of ice crystals has a large cooling capacity as a result of the involvement of latent heat. However, there are still problems related to the recrystallization of ice crystals for realizing long term storage and long distance transportation. To find improvements fur this, a method for the creation of ice crystals resistant to recrystallization has been proposed and researched by the use of an antifreeze protein (AFP) solution etc. In the present study, it has been investigated the growth of ice crystal in several kinds of water solution added non-ionic surfactant. The results shows that size of ice crystal was smaller with increasing in added surfactant. And ice crystal was not increased with added surfactant.

As a result of high integration of semiconductor device, the global planarization of multi-layer structures is necessary. So the chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) is widely applied to manufacturing the dielectric layer and metal line in the semiconductor device. CMP process is under influence of polisher, pad, slurry, and process itself, etc. In comparison with the general CMP which uses the slurry including abrasives, fixed abrasive pad takes advantage of planarity, resulting from decreasing pattern selectivity and defects such as dishing & erosion due to the reduction of abrasive concentration especially. This paper introduces the manufacturing technique of fixed abrasive pad using hydrophilic polymers with swelling characteristic in water and explains the self-conditioning phenomenon. And the tungsten CMP using fixed abrasive pad achieved the good conclusion in terms of the removal rate, non-uniformity, surface roughness, material selectivity, micro-scratch free contemporary with the pad life-time.
