시안 함유 도금폐수의 재활용이 가능한 전기적 산화법에 의한 수용액상의 시안 성분 분해특성을 규명하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 전해산화에 의한 유리시안 분해실험 결과, 전류효율과 분해속도를 고려할 때 전압 5V, 구리촉매량 Cu/CN 몰비 0.05가 적정조건이었으며, 이때의 전류효율은 26%, 분해속도는 5.6 mM/min 이었으며 적정수준 이상의 전압과 구리첨가는 분해속도를 소폭 상승시키나 전류효율은 증가하지 않았다. 지지전해질의 증가는 전류밀도의 증가로 분해속도를 소폭 증가시키나 전류효율은 크게 감소하였다. 초기 유리시안 농도실험 결과, 과산화수소 산화와 유사한 결과를 나타내어 시안농도 증가시 분해속도 및 전류효율이 동시에 증가하므로 고농도 시안일수록 적절한 공정으로 판단된다. 각 변수가 총괄 반응속도에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위하여 In($C_{CN}$ /$C_{CNo}$ )와 시간과의 관계로부터 계산한 총괄 반응속도 상수는 $1.6∼7.3${\times}$10^{-3}$ $min^{-1}$ 이었으며 시안농도에 대하여 1차 반응식을 만족하였다.

토양세척 기법은 금속-리간드 착물형성을 촉진하여 오염토양으로부터 중금속을 제거하는 효과적인 방법으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 폐금속광산 광미와 그 후면 농경지토양의 중금속 오염도 저감에 대한 세척기랩의 적용효과를 검토하기 위해 수행되었다. 실험에 사용된 일부시료에서 구리와 납의 오염도는 토양오염 우려기준 및 대책기준을 초과하였으며 또 다른 시료에서는 카드뮴이 대책기준에 근접하는 오염도를 보였다. 토양시료에 단계적 추출법을 적용하여 실험한 결과에 따르면 광미와 주변토양시료에 존재하는 중금속의 절반 이상이 식물이용가능성 있는 흡착된 형태로 존재함이 밝혀졌다. 또한 단계석 추출법으로 조사한 몇 가지 형태의 중금속 농도와 0.1N HCI 용출실험에서 구한 농도 사이에는 비례관계가 성립하였다. 유기산별 세척능력 비친실험에서 구연산은 위의 세 가지 중금속 모두에 대하여 초산이나 옥살산에 비해 월등한 세척효율을 나타내었다. 그리고, 구연산을 사용하여 토양으로부터 중금속을 세척할 때 세척액의 pH를 5.5이하로 하면 보다 나은 세척효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 구연산 세척법을 이용한 중금속 세척시 효율은 세척액 농도, (세척액/토양)혼합비, 그리고 세척액의 초기 pH에 의존하여 달라졌다. 구연산에 SDS를 같이 투입하여 세척하면 세 가지 중금속 중에서 카드뮴의 세척효율이 가장 크게 개선되었으며 구리 제거율은 변화되지 않았다. 이상에서 알 수 있듯이 구연산 세척기법은 광미와 중금속 오염토양으로부터의 중금속 제거에 적용 가능한 정화방법임이 확인되었다.

The removal of Cd(II) and Cu(II) from aqueous solution by an agricultural solid waste biomass prepared from Moringa oleifera bark (MOB) was investigated. The biosorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the effect of initial pH, contact time, biosorbent dosage, initial metal ion concentration and temperature on the biosorption of Cd(II) and Cu(II) were studied using the batch sorption technique. Kinetic studies indicated that the biosorption process of the metal ions followed the pseudo-second order model. The biosorption data was analyzed by the Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, and Temkin isotherm models. Based on the Langmuir isotherm, the maximum biosorption capacities for Cd(II) and Cu(II) onto MOB were 39.41 and 36.59 mg/g at 323 K, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters, Gibbs free energy (${\Delta}G^o$), enthalpy (${\Delta}H^o$), and entropy (${\Delta}S^o$) changes, were also calculated, and the values indicated that the biosorption process was endothermic, spontaneous and feasible in the temperature range of 303-323 K. It was concluded that MOB powder can be used as an effective, low cost, and environmentally friendly biosorbent for the removal of Cd(II) and Cu(II) ions from aqueous solution.

A series of laboratory-scale corrosion experiments was carried out to observe the effect of dissolved oxygen (DO) in the presence of other water quality parameters, such as hardness, Cl-, and pH using various pipe materials. In addition, a simulated loop system was installed at a water treatment plant for pilot-scale experiment. Laboratory-scale experiment showed that corrosion rates for galvanized steel pipe (GSP), carbon steel pipe (CSP), and ductile cast iron pipe (DCIP) were decreased to 72%, 75%, and 91% by reducing DO concentration from 9${\pm}$0.5 mg/L to 2${\pm}$0.5 mg/L. From the pilot scale experiment, it was further identified that the average ionization rate of zinc in GSP decreased from 0.00533 to 0.00078 mg/$cm^2$/d by controlling the concentration of DO. The reduction of average ionization rate for copper pipe (CP) and stainless steel pipe (SSP) were 71.4% for Cu and 63.5% for Fe, respectively. From this study, it was concluded that DO could be used as a major parameter in controlling the corrosion of water pipes.

We have closely examined the concentration change characteristics, emission amounts, and the material balance of hazardous air pollutants at both early and later stages of the prevention facilities. These results will be uses as the basic data when preparing for the regulatory and management plans for hazardous air pollutants. The results of the study on heavy metals illustrated that the content of heavy metals in sludge across five facilities were as follows: copper> zinc> chrome> nickel> cadmium> mercury. In terms of heavy metal content in swage sludge, the sludge in incinerating facilities other than the sludge in the D incinerating facility containing industrial water waste, was examined in order to satisfy the ocean contamination standard and fertilizer specifications. Most of the items were shown to have satisfied the emission tolerance standards in the latter part of the prevention facilities(The average elimination rate was over 90%). Therefore, it is concluded that swage sludge containing high-concentrate heavy metals needs to be incinerated rather than recycled as fertilizer.

The solidification and leaching characteristics of cyclone ash collected from an industrial incineration plant were investigated. Cement and calcium hydroxide were used as the solidifying materials. The leaching characteristics of the solidified cyclone ash were found to vary depending on both the quantitative and the qualitative aspects of the solidifying materials. Except for copper and lead, all the heavy metal ions in the leachate of the solidified material composed of 10~20 % cement or 10~20 % calcium hydroxide were found to be within their standard limit. Moreover, all the heavy metal ions were also observed to be within satisfactory limits in the leachate obtained from the solidified material composed of 30 % cement or 30 % calcium hydroxide. Therefore, to satisfy the standard compressive intensity and permissible limits of heavy metal ions leached from solidified material, it would appear that a 30 % proportion of either additive in the solidification product can meet the required standard for the leachate. The cost of solidifying cyclone ash per ton for ash-30 % cement and ash-30 % lime was calculated as 26,750 and 26,070 won, respectively. Accordingly, significant reduction in the waste toxicity and mobility as well as an improvement in the engineering properties of the solidified products were successfully achieved.

Wood-plastic composites (WPC) are gaining market share in the building industry because of durability/maintenance advantages of WPC over traditional wood products and because of the removal of chromated copper arsenate (CCA) pressure-treated wood from the market. In order to ensure continued market share growth, WPC manufacturers need greater focus on reliability, quality, and cost. The reliability methods outlined in this paper can be used to improve the quality of WPC and lower manufacturing costs by reducing raw material inputs and minimizing WPC waste. Statistical methods are described for analyzing stiffness (tangent modulus of elasticity: MOE) and flexural strength (modulus of rupture: MOR) test results on sampled WPC panels. Descriptive statistics, graphs, and reliability plots from these test data are presented and interpreted. Sources of variability in the MOE and MOR of WPC are suggested. The methods outlined may directly benefit WPC manufacturers through a better understanding of strength and stiffness measures, which can lead to process improvements and, ultimately, a superior WPC product with improved reliability, thereby creating greater customer satisfaction.

The improved properties of corrosion for 90Cu10NiFe alloy in natural seawater were explained by sodium diethyl dithio carbamate(NaDDC), namely organic compound, which is reagent for heavy metal extractions of waste water. The efficiency of NaDDC as corrosion inhibitor for 90Cu10NiFe alloy has been investigated in seawater after immersion in various concentrations of NaDDC solutions for 12~36hrs at pH 8.2 by weight loss test and electrochemical techniques including potentiodynamic polarization and SEM-EDS measurements. The results showed that the corrosion resistance of 90Cu10NiFe alloy improves with the increasing concentration of NaDDC but it did not improves with increasing time any more, so the highest inhibition efficiency was 93% at 100mg/L, 36hrs. The results obtained from weight losses and corrosion rates in polarization curve measurements were in good agreement. Therefore, it showed that NaDDC is a good inhibitor for copper corrosion of 90Cu10NiFe alloy.
