Agricultural drainage salt generated during irrigation of crops in San Joaquin Valley, California exceeds 600,000 tons annually and cumulates in the field in a rapid rate. As a result, the waste is taking out more farmlands for salt storage and disposal, imposing serious concerns to environment and local agricultural industry. in searching for a potential solution to reduce or eliminate the waste, this research explored feasibility of producing a value-added product, sodium sulfate, from the waste and utilizing the product in textile dyeing. The result indicated that sodium sulfate could be produced the salt and could be purified by a recrystalization method in a temperature range within the highest and lowest daily temperatures in summer in the valley. Re recovered sodium sulfate samples, with purifies ranging from 67% to 99.91, were compard with commercially available sodium sulfate in directive dyeing of cotton fabrics. Direct Yellow 27 and direct Blue 1 had similar exhaustions among Na₂So₄Ⅰ, Na₂So₄Ⅱ, Na₂So₄Ⅲ and V which had similar ratios of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride in recovered salts. Na₂So₄Ⅳ had high exhaustion despite low ratios of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride. In direct Red 80, exhaustion depends more on the ratios of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride than sodium chloride. Na₂SO₄Ⅳ and Na₂SO₄V with high ratios of sodium chloride had more exhaustion than Na₂So₄and Na₂So₄Ⅲ with low ratios of sodium chloride. Generally, directive dyeing using recovered salts from farm drainage has similar or more excellent exhaustion than directive dyeing using commercial sodium sulfate.

Generally, $H_2SO_4$ and Cu metal are used as raw materials for producing copper sulfate. The study relates to a method for producing copper sulfate using electrowinning from a waste solution of copper chloride. Uses are used for copper plating for industry, plating, feed, agriculture, electronic grade PCB. Conventional methods for producing copper sulfate have a problem of a large amount of waste water and a high energy cost. A study on the production method of copper sulfate ($CuSO_4$), which is the most used among copper (Cu) compounds, has a low process operation ratio, a small amount of waste water, and a simple manufacturing process. It is easy to remove Na, Ca, Mg, and Al as impurities by using a cationic membrane. At the same time, high purity copper powder could be recovered by an electrowinninng method. Using the recovered copper powder, high purity copper sulfate could be produced.

This paper reports a study carried out to investigate sulfate attack caused by cation type(sodium, magnesium) accompanying $SO_4^{2-}$ ions in sulfate solutions. The sulfate attack of mortar specimens was evaluate using the visual appearance, compressive strength loss and expansion. In addition, at the end of 360 days, the products of sulfate attack and the mechanism of attack were investigated through x-ray diffraction.

Objectives: This study has been done to make sure the Gypsum's standardization in medical use. Gypsum has a quality for removing pathogenic heat from the stomach meridian function and headache. Methods: I studied the herbalogical Gypsum and compared its' compositions and character before and after high temperature burning. Results: Gypsum and Lishi(理石) are the sulfate which is made of $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, Feldspar is a Calcite, Hanshuishi(寒水石) and Ningshuishi(凝水石) are not a Gypsum but a Magnesium Sulfate($MgSO_4$) and Kalium Sulfate($K_2SO_4$). Conclusion: Real Gypsum is supposed to be Yiong cheng${\setminus}$(應城) Gypsum. Chemical edible Gypsum isn't appropriated to be used in medicine.

In order to solve the problem of low early-age compressive strength of high volume fly ash concrete. This paper studies the effect of 2% sodium sulfate (Na₂SO₄) as a chemical activator on the paste with 40% fly ash content and a water-binder ratio of 0.30. The results indicate that the addition of Na₂SO₄ can effectively improve the early-age compressive strength of the fly ash-cement system, and the strength improvement rate on the first day reached nearly 70%. In addition, calorimetric analysis reveals that the incorporation of Na₂SO₄ promotes the early hydration of cement and fly ash, increases the cumulative hydration heat and delays the heat peak of the aluminum phase.

The issue of acid precipitation and related environmental problems in East Asia has been emerging. To evaluate the acidity and chemical characteristics of rainwater in Korea, its chemical properties during cultivation season from April to October in 2005 were investigated at Taean. Also, to estimate the contribution of ions on acidity, ion composition characteristics and neutralization effects by cations were determined. The electrical conductivity balance between measured and estimated values showed a high correlation. Rainwater was highly distributed in the range of pH $4.5{\sim}5.0$. The acidity of rainwater was relatively low during the month of June compared with other monitored periods. $Na^+$ was the main cation, followed by $H^+>Ca^{2+}>NH_4^+>K^+>Mg^{2+}$. Among these ions, $Na^+,\;NH_4^+,\;Ca^{2+}$ and $H^+$ comprised over 94% of the total cations. Rainwater anion composition was more than 80% with $SO_4^{2-}$ and $NO_3^-$. In rainwater samples, $NH_4^+$ and $Ca^{2+}$ contributed greatly to neutralizing the rain acidity. The sulfate content decreased until September, and sea salt derivatives were higher in May and October than during other monitored periods. Also, 78% of the soluble sulfate in rainwater was nss-$SO_4^{2-}$ (non-sea salt sulfate).

Tallow fatty acid consists of mixtures of fatty acids differing in chain length and saturation. In separation of tallow fatty acid, the effects of the type and concentration of detergents and electrolytes were studied. And the changes of acid composition of particular fractions were determined by gas-chromatography. Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) and sodium lauryl benzene sulfonate (SLBS) were used as detergents and NaCl, Na2SO4 and MgSO4 were used as electrolytes. At low concentration of detergent, the tallow fatty acid was not fully wetted, and at high concentration, the emulsion was so stable that the tallow fatty acid was not well separated. The addition of proper amount of electrolyte increased the separation efficiency by the decrease of interfacial tension and by the increase of the amount of adsorbed detergent on the surface of solid fatty acid crystals. The optimum range of detergent was 0.4-0.6% (wt.) in SLS, 0.2-0.4% in SLES and 2.0-) .0% in SLBS. And the optimum range of electrolyte was 2.0-2.5% in NaCl, 3.0-4.0% In Na2SO4 and 0.5-1.0% in MgSO4 respectively.

We investigated the effect of sulfate re-addition on hydrogen production under sulfur-deprived condition. When the final concentration of sulfate to cell suspensions($0{\sim}120{\mu}M$) was increased, chlorophyll concentration, culture density, and total amount of $H_2$ produced, increased up to an optimal concentration of $30{\mu}M\;MgSO_4$. Maximum hydrogen volume was 236 mL $H_2/L$ culture at $30{\mu}M\;MgSO_4$. However, the addition of excess sulfate(above $MgSO_4\;60{\mu}M$) delayed the start of hydrogen production and the induction of hydrogenase. Accordingly, the final yield of hydrogen production was reduced. Using these results, we attempted the continuous and sustained hydrogen production by sulfate re-addition($30{\mu}M\;MgSO_4$) using a single C. reinhardtii culture for up to 4 cycles. In total, hydrogen production volume was 625 mL $H_2/L$ culture.

Addition of l00mM $MgSO_4$ to a cell culture after 54 hours resulted in a 2.4-fold increase in the sisomicin titre compared to a control to which no $MgSO_4$ was added, and a considerable amount of intracellular sisomicin was liberated outside the cells. The occurrence of product inhibition in fermentation was confirmed by a reduction in net sisomicin production with increasing amounts of added sisomicin without addition of $MgSO_4$. All added sisomicin was bound to sisomicin-free cells in the absence of $MgSO_4$, whereas approximately 40% of added sisomicin was bound with the addition of l00mM $MgSO_4$. Under conditions of no enzmye synthesis, maintained by adding chloramphenicol to exclude product repression, sisomicin was produced in the presence of 100 mM $MgSO_4$ but little sisomicin was produced in the absence of $MgSO_4$.
