방연석으로부터 유용금속이온을 용출시키기 위하여 토착박테리아를 실험실온도에서 최적의 pH 조건이 아닌 상태로 용출실험을 실시하였다. 이와 같은 조건에서도 $0.4{\times}0.2{\mu}m$에서 $0.5{\times}1.7{\mu}m$ 범위의 막대 모양 박테리아들이 방연석 표면에 부착하였다. 미생물 용출실험 19일 후에, Pb, Fe, Zn 이온 함량이 비교시료에서 보다 박테리아 시료에서 각각 약 347, 222, 1.7배 이상으로 높게 용출되었다. 수많은 육각형 주상의 결정들이 방연석의 표변에 형성된 것이 관찰되었으며, 이들 결정들은 토착 박테리아의 미생물학적 산화작용에 의하여 방연석으로부터 생성된 것으로 생각된다. XRD 분석에서, 황산연광에 해당되는 회절선이 방연석 시료에서 관찰되었다. 만약 박테리아가 최적으로 생존할 수 있는 pH 조건과 온도 조건을 조성해 준다면 더 많은 유용금속 이온이 방연석으로부터 용출 될 것으로 기대된다.

현재 우리나라 미이용자원의 대표격으로서 전기로 제강분진(EAF Dust)중의 아연(Zn)과 석유탈황폐촉매 중의 몰리브덴(Mo)과 바나듐(V)등을 들 수 있다. 자동차 폐촉매로부터 백금족금속(PGM) 회수 및 폐프린트 회로기판(PCBs)부터의 금, 은, 등도 거론할 수 있으나 유통경로가 복잡하여 정확한 회수통계 파악이 어렵다. 본고에서는 이들 금속의 우리나라에서의 연구동향을 조사 검토하였다. 물질흐름에 관해서는 석유탈황폐촉매에서 회수할 수 있는 Mo, V및 Ni에 한해서만 조사하였다. 그리고 EAF Dust중의 Zn 에 관해서는 후일 별도로 논술하려고 한다. 다만 금속시세가 폭등하고 있기 때문에 금년(2007)내로 Mo및 V의 회수가 확실시되고, 아연도 회수될 전망이다.

In Escherichia coli, the transcription of genes related to metal homeostasis is activated by the presence of target metals. The promoter regions of those genes can be fused with reporter genes to generate whole-cell bioreporters (WCBs); these organisms sense the presence of target metals through reporter gene expression. However, the limited number of available promoters for sensing domains restricts the number of WCB targets. In this study, we have demonstrated an alternative method to generate novel WCBs, based on the notion that since the sensing mechanisms of WCBs are related to metal transportation systems, their properties can be modulated by disrupting metal homeostasis. Mutant E. coli strains were generated by deleting the znt-operon genes zntA, which encodes a zinc-export protein, and zntR, which encodes a znt-operon regulatory protein, to investigate the effects on the metal-sensing properties of WCBs. Deletion of zntA increased the sensitivity but abolished the selectivity of cadmium-sensing WCBs, whereas arsenic-sensing WCBs gained sensitivity toward cadmium. When zntR was deleted, cadmium-sensing WCBs lost the ability to detect cadmium, and this was recovered by introducing exogenous zntR. In addition, the metal-binding site of ZntR was genetically engineered to modulate metal selectivity. This study provides a valuable platform for the development of novel E. coli-based WCBs.

To understand the geochemical characteristics of Gomso Bay, which features extensive Manila clam, we measured various geochemical parameters, organic matter, and trace metals (Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cr, Hg, As and Fe) of intertidal and subtidal surface sediments in 2011. The surface sediments consisted of sedimentary facies including gravel (0.21%), sand (61.1%), silt (32.1%), and clay (6.5%). The chemical oxygen demand (COD) and acid volatile sulfide (AVS) values in most areas were below sediment quality criteria (COD, $20mg/g{\cdot}dry$; AVS, $0.2mg/g{\cdot}dry$). Trace metals in the surface sediments were below pollution thresholds, except for As (morderately polluted). Sediment quality was evaluated using the trace metal pollution load index (PLI) and ecological risk index (ERI), which showed that sediments were generally not polluted and at low risk; however, values along the outer bay were higher. We expect these results will be valuable for sustainable aquaculture prodution and environmental management in Gomso Bay.

Oil fly ash is known as one source of raw materials from which vanadium and nickel metals can be recovered. The current recovery process of valuable metals from oil fly ash is mainly the hydrormetallurgy one. Nevertheless, a great amount about 50~80%, of unburned carbon remains as byproduct after hydrormetallursy process. In Taiwan, if hydrormetallursy processes have proceeded, it can be estimated that the annual production of unburned carbon is 25 thousand tons. From the viewpoint of resource recycling, this study is a preliminary study and investigates in recovery of sub micron- graphitized carbon from unburned carbon by a designed process. The designed process included the following steps: 1.selecting a portion with +400mesh size from unburned carbon; 2.treating the selected in ultrasonic waves; 3.using a 400mesh sieve to obtain the product which is under 400mesh; 4.Removal ash from the product. In regard to treatment by ultrasonic waves in the designed process, treating time of ultrasonic waves is a simple and only variance in this study. The results indicate that the production yields increase with the treating time of ultrasonic waves; the production yield in specific conditions of this study can reach about 23%, in which ash content in product is about 2.5%. According to results of SEM, TEM and XRD, the products from the designed process are flakes in shape, several microns in size and graphitized carbon in carbon crystal phase. Except to graphitized carbon, there are a little carbon blacks, which are graphite 2H in carbon crystal phase in the products. Conclusively, the designed process is possibly applicable, by which comes to the recovery of micron- graphitized carbon.

인산 제조공정에서 생산되는 부산물인 인산석고는 시설재배지 토양 pH의 조정과 칼슘을 포함한 여러가지 필수 무기영양원소를 공급하는 면에서 토양 개량제나 양분급원의 일종으로 그 효과를 발휘할 수 있을 것이다. 인산석고를 참외에 시용한 결과, 초기 생육 상황을 기준으로 판단해 볼 때 고토석회 처리구와 비교하여 우선 가시적으로 매우 현저한 생육 촉진 효과를 보였으며, 두 차례의 생육 조사 결과에서도 이러한 효과가 입증되었다. 토양 산성화, 염류장해, 유해금속 문제 등 인산석고가 유발할 수 있는 것으로 우려한 문제는 참외 재배 하우스 토양에서 나타나지 않았으며 작물생육에 관련된 부작용 또한 발생하지 않았다. 현재까지 나타난 참외에 대한 인산석고의 효과는 Ca의 원활한 공급 외 다른 원인은 아직 구명하기 어려우나, 적절한 시용 수준에서의 인산석고의 농업적 재활용은 충분히 부작용 없이 가능한 것으로 판단되었으며, Ca 공급 측면과 시설재배지 토양에서 pH를 과도하게 증가시키는 석회를 대체할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Pollutants that are persistent, bioaccurnulative, and toxic have been linked to numerous adverse effects in human and animals, PBTs include heavy metals, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), dioxins, polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) in addition to pesticides. This study focuses on toxic effects of the PBTs except pesticides on insects. Eight PBTs were selected from subgroups: three heavy metals (Pb, Hg, and Cd), two PCB mixtures (Aroclor mixtures 1 and 2), 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, two monophenols (4-octylphenol and 4-nonylphenol), and tetrabutyltin, Beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, was used as test target insect species. Three physiological markers (metamorphosis, immune reaction, and follicle patency) were assessed in each exposure to different doses of the PCBs. Heat-shock proteins as molecular markers were also analyzed in response to the PCBs. All tested PBTs were toxic to metamorphosis from larvae to pupae when they were applied with diet. Two PCB mixtures were the most toxic compounds in this assay by giving significant toxicity at 0.005 ppm, while others had from 10 to 1000 ppm. Dioxin (0.1 ppb), tetrabutyltin (0.1 ppb), Pb (10 ppb), and Hg (0,01 ppb) were potent to inhibit immune reactions analyzed by inducing phenoloxidase activity and blocked phospholipase $A_2$ enzyme, Tetrabutyltin and dioxin significantly induced follicle cell patency, but their effects were lower than that of endogenous juvenile hormone, Dioxin, Pb, Hg, and Cd could induce the expression of heat shock proteins that were detected by immunoblotting against human HSP70 monoclonal antibody. HSP78 and HSP80 were upregulated in response to the PBTs. This expression was detected from the fat body and epidermis at as fast as 4h after injection. All these results clearly suggest that PBTs give significant ecotoxicity to insects that are valuable organisms in our environment.

Cladding material, which can selectively obtain excellent properties of different metals, is a composite material that combines two or more types of dissimilar metals into one plate. The titanium-copper cladding material between titanium which has excellent corrosion resistance and copper which has high thermal and electrical conductivity, are highly valuable composite materials. It can be used as heat exchangers with high conductivity under severe corrosion conditions. In order to apply the clad plate to the heat exchanger, it must be manufactured in the form of a tube and additional welding is required. It is important to select the cladding material manufacturing process and the welding process. The process of manufacturing the cladding material includes extrusion, rolling, and explosive bonding. Among them, the explosive bonding process is suitable for additional welding because no heat-affected zone is formed. In this study TIG welding of the explosive-bonded dissimilar clad plates was successfully performed by butt welding. The microstructures and bonding interface of the welded part were observed, and the effect of the bonding layer at the welding interface and the intermetallic compounds on the mechanical properties and tensile plastic deformation behaviors were analyzed. And also the integrity of TIG-welded dissimilar part was evaluated.
