This study is conducted in order to find more improved solidifying effects than the former converter slag solidification technology. The converter slag is used as a solidifying agent, and the quick lime and the gypsum are used as solidifying aids. Several tests are performed for the purpose of investigating the solidifying effects and the applicability of the solidified sludge as a daily or intermediate landfill cover. The unconfined uniaxial compressive strength, pH and leaching of heavy metal are investigated. In the case of using both quick lime and gypsum as solidifying aids, the compressive strength of specimen has significantly increased that of specimen which used quick lime only. The compressive strength of each specimen cured for 7 days which is mixed with quick lime and gypsum as mixing ratios 7:1, 5:1 and 3:1 are $0.59kg/cm^2$, $1.18kg/cm^2$, and $1.25kg/cm^2$, respectively. The results of all the leaching tests of specimen cured for 7 days show that the concentrations of leachate heavy metals(Cu, Pb, Cd and $Cr^{6+}$) are lower than the Korea toxic waste criteria. The microstructure analysis by SEM shows that needlelike crystals appear as the solidification proceed. The analysis of these crystals by EDS confirms that these main components are Ca. Si etc. Also, XRD analysis shows that the main solidification products are CSH and Ettringite; in addition, $Ca(OH)_2$ CAH are observed. When the added gypsum is used as a solidifying aid, more improved solidifying effects are obtained and the solidified sludge may be appropriately used as a daily or intermediate landfill cover.

Uranium mill tailing ponds (UMTPs) are risk source of debris flow and a critical source of environmental U and Rn pollution. The technology of microbial induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) has been extensively studied on reinforcement of UMTs, while little attention has been paid to the effects of MICP on U & Rn release, especially when incorporation of metakaolin and bacillus subtilis (MBS). In this study, the reinforcement and U & Rn immobilization role of MBS -MICP solidification in different grouting cycle for uranium mill tailings (UMTs) was comprehensively investigated. The results showed that under the action of about 166.7 g/L metakaolin and ~50% bacillus subtilis, the solidification cycle of MICP was shortened by 50%, the solidified bodies became brittle, and the axial stress increased by up to 7.9%, and U immobilization rates and Rn exhalation rates decrease by 12.6% and 0.8%, respectively. Therefore, the incorporation of MBS can enhance the triaxial compressive strength and improve the immobilization capacity of U and Rn of the UMTs bodies solidified during MICP, due to the reduction of pore volume and surface area, the formation of more crystals general gypsum and gismondine, as well as the enhancing of coprecipitation and encapsulation capacity.

사용후핵연료 파이로프로세싱에서 발생하는 LiCl-KCl 공융염폐기물의 부피를 최소화하고 최종적으로 잔류하는 폐기물을 비교적 낮은 온도에서 안정한 형태로 고화하고자 희토류 핵종 염화물을 함유한 LiCl-KCl 공융염을 이용하여 인산화/증류 및 세라믹 고화의 일련공정을 수행하였다. LiCl-KCl 공융염 내 희토류 염화물은 혼합인산화제($Li_3PO_4-K_3PO_4$)를 이용한 인산화 및 공융염 감압증류공정을 통하여 99% 이상을 인산화물 형태로 전환/분리할 수 있었고, 분리한 희토류 인산화물은 고화매질로서 LIP(Lead Iron Phosphate)를 이용하여 $1,050^{\circ}C$에서 균질하고 치밀한 형태의 고화체로 제조할 수 있었으며, 최종적으로 발생하는 방사성 폐기물 부피를 10% 이하로 감용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

각 시멘트 구성 광물별로 중금속의 고정/안정화 메커니즘과 수화거동을 검토하였다. $C_3$S수화 시 Pb는 불용성화합물인 Ca[Pb(OH)$_3$.$H_2O$]$_2$를, Cr은 CaCr $O_4$$H_2O$를 생성하였으며, 초기 7일까지는 전체적으로 중금속이 첨가되어진 경우 수화가 늦어지는 경향을 보이고 있었다. $C_3$A와 $C_4$ $A_3$ $S^{S}$수화 시 Pb, Cr 이온이 ettringite 또는 monosulfate에 의한 수화물에 치환에 의한 고정/안정화되고 있다. 수화물에서 Pb, Cr, Zn등 유해중금속의 용출은 극미하였으며 이는 수화물에 중금속이 고정/안정화되었음을 알 수 있다. 슬래그 혼합 시멘트를 이용한 산업 폐기물 STS, BF, COREX 슬러지 함유 중금속의 고정화/안정화를 검토하였다 시멘트와 폐슬러지를 3 : 7의 비율로 혼합 고화 처리한 결과 유해 중금속의 용출은 극미하였으며, 효과적으로 고정/안정화됨을 확인할 수 있었다.다.

지중매몰된 방사성핵종들이 지하수계를 통해 이동을 하는 Source를 수학적으로 표시하는 Source Term 모형이 필요하다. 물질전달식 또는 측정식에 근거한 여러 Source Term 모형을 비교 분석하였다. 일반적으로 용출 또는 용해에는 (1) 화학반응, (2) 확산 등에 의한 물질이동의 두 가지 작용이 관여한다. 화학반응은 고화체가 지하수에 노출된 후 초기의 짧은 기간 동안에만 용해율을 조절한다. 외부로의 물질전달율이 지하 처분장에서 방사성폐기물 고화체로부터의 장기간에 걸친 핵종유출율을 조절하는 역할을 한다. 물질전단 이론을 적용 할 때는, 필요로 하는 물질이동 현상을 기술할 수 있는 식을 선택해야 한다. 적절히 사용했을 경우, 물질전달 이론에 입각한 Source Term 모형은 핵종유출율의 신뢰할 만한 예측을 위한 귀중한 도구이다.

Fixation of lead contaminants in the solidification/stabilization using Portland cement has been investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and compressive strength. The presence of lead was observed to produce lead carbonate sulfate hydroxide ($Pb_4SO_4(CO_3)_2(OH)_2$), lead carbonate hydroxide hydrate ($3PbCO_3{\cdot}2Pb(OH)_2{\cdot}H_2O$) and two other unidentified lead salts in cavity areas and was observed to significantly retard the hydration of cement. By 28 days, howevere, the XRD peaks of most of the lead precipitates have essentially disappeared with only residual traces of lead carbonate sulfate hydroxide and lead carbonate hydroxide hydrate evident. After 28 days of curing, hydration appears well advanced with a strong portlandite peak present though C-S-H gel peaks are not particularly evident. Lead species produced with the dissolution of lead precipitates are fixed into the cement matrix to be calcium lead silicate hydrate (C-Pb-S-H) during cement-based solidification.

This work deals with the electrical conductivity of dielectric on output parameters such as metal removal rate and surface roughness value of a carbon steel(SM25C) and sintered carbides cut by wire-electrical discharge machining(W-EDM). Dielectric has several functions like insulation, ionization, cooling, the removal of waste metal particles. The presence of minute particles(gap debris) in spark gap contaminates and lowers the breakdown strength of dielectric. And it is considered that too much debris in spark gap is generally believed to be the cause of arcing. Experimental results show that increases of cobalt amount in carbides affects the metal removal rate and worsens the surface quality as a greater quantity of solidified metal deposits on the eroded surface. Lower electrical conductivity of the dielectric results in a lower metal removal rate because the gap between wire electrode and workpiece reduced. Especially, the surface characteristics of rough-cut workpiece and wire electrode were analyzed too. Debris were analyzed also through scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and surface roughness tester. Micro cracks and some of electrode material are found on the workpiece surface by energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS).

The generation of fly ash tends to increase yearly so that this is currently considered a big environmental concern, which requires appropriate treatment approaches. In this research the consolidation of incineration fly ash by the hot-press solvothermal reaction was investigated to provide an alternative process for the treatment and utilization of this waste material. Results showed that at reaction conditions of 52 K treatment, 20 ㎫ pressure and 60 minutes treatment time, the resulting consolidate exhibited a compressive ness strengths of 37-40 ㎫, a tensile strength of 6.5-7.0 ㎫ and a Rockwell hardness of 20-23 RH15W. These properties are comparable to the compressive ness strength of Portland cement which ranges from 30-40 ㎫ as well as with the tensile strengths of mortar, ganite, artificial lightweight aggregate and solidified high connote whose values are 2-2.5 ㎫, 5-9 ㎫, 5-10 ㎫ and 3-5 ㎫ respectively- Furthermore, by mixing fly ash with glass at 50% ratio and then subjecting to similar treatment conditions, a consolidate with even higher tensile strength of 12.5-13.3 ㎫ and hardness of 77-80 RH15W may be achieved.

A series of studies on nitric-acid pulping of municipal recycled waste papers were carried out to substitute the bleached chemical pulp imported for producing printing paper as well as to use its solidified spent-liquor as fertilizer. The first experiment was carried out to find the optimum treatment conditions such as pulp consistency, nitric acid charge and temperature in $HNO_3$-alkali pulping process. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Some selective delignification of OCC pulp was conducted by $HNO_3$-alkali process. The higher the temperature and concentration of nitric acid, the lower the pulp yield and kappa number of treated pulp. while its brightness was increased. 2. The higher consistency required the stronger mixing in case of more than 5% pulp. 3. In the laboratory, the suitable $HNO_3$-treating condition seemed to be less than 6% consistency, lower than 500% $HNO_3$charge on pulp and lower than $100^{\circ}C$ in cooking temperature. 4. The spent liquor with 1.77% N-content seemed to be slow-release nitrogen fertilizer suitable for agriculture.
