In this study, we analyzed the volcanic rock and scoria samples taken from special sites of Jeju island in two ways at the room temperature. One is the analysis of the chemical composition using X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, the other is the analysis of minerals in the samples, oxidized iron's genus, valence state and magnetic properties using X-ray diffractometry and Mossbauer spectroscopy. We believe that the volcanic rock and scoria samples are chiefly made of silicate minerals, like SiO$_2$, and they also have olivine, pyroxene, ilmenite, hematite and magnetite. The major Fe fractions of the volcanic rock samples are 2+ charge state and those of the scoria samples are 3+ charge state.

A discrimination technique for domestic and imported Scutellaria baicalensis was developed using an energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer (ED-XRF). Mineral content ratios, of a total of 43 species, including P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Cu, and Zn, were measured among 204 samples. Macro element content ratios and trace element content ratios were determined using the standardless fundamental parameters (SLFP) analysis. Inorganic element ratios of P, S, K, Ca, Cl, Mn, and Fe were significantly different between domestic and imported samples. The result from the canonical discriminant analysis showed that the accuracy of geographical origin discrimination was 95.15%; the correlation coefficient was 0.888. It was concluded that this technique could be used as a useful method in discriminating the geographical origins between domestic and imported Scutellaria baicalensis.

The commercial $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalysts which had been exposed to the off gas from incinerator for a long time were regenerated by physical and chemical treatment. The catalytic properties and NOx conversion reactivity of those catalysts were examined by analysis equipment and NOx conversion experiment. The characterization of the catalysts were performed by XRD(x-ray diffractometer), BET, POROSIMETER, EDX(energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer), ICP(inductively coupled plasma), TGA(thermogravimetric analyzer) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). NOx conversion experiment were performed with simulated off gas of the incinerator and $NH_3$ was used as a reductant of SCR reaction. Among the regeneration treatment methods which were applied to regenerate the aged catalysts in this study, it showed that the heat treatment method had excellent regeneration effect on the catalytic performance for NOx conversion. The catalytic performance of the regenerated catalysts with heat treatment method were recovered over than 95% of that of fresh catalyst. For the regenerated catalysts with the acid solution(pH 5) and the alkali solution(pH 12), the catalytic performance were recovered over than 90% of that of fresh catalyst. From the characterization results of the regenerated catalysts, the specific surface area was recovered in the range of $85{\sim}95%$ of that of fresh catalyst. S and Ca element, which are well known as the deactivation materials for the SCR catalysts, accumulated on the aged catalyst surface were removed up to maximum 99%. Among the P, Cr, Zn and Pb elements accumulated on the aged catalyst surface, P, Cr and Zn element were removed up to 95%. But the Pb element were removed in the range of $10{\sim}30%$ of that of fresh catalyst.

In order to investigate the calcium phosphate forming ability of nanocrystalline $ZrO_2$ film, we prepared $ZrO_2/Si$ structure by using a chemical solution deposition with a zirconium naphthenate as a starting material. Precursor sol was spin-coated onto the (100)Si substrate and prefired at 500$^{\circ}C$ for 10 min in air, followed by final annealing at 800$^{\circ}C$ for 30 min in air. Crystallinity of the annealed film was examined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Surface morphology and surface roughness of the film were characterized by field emission-scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscope. After annealing, nanocrystalline $ZrO_2$ grains were obtained on the surface of the film with a homogeneous interface between the film and substrate. After immersion for 1 or 5 days in a simulated body fluid, formation of calcium phosphate was observed on $ZrO_2$ film annealed at 800$^{\circ}C$ by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer. The fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that carbonate was substituted into the calcium phosphate.

Nowadays, SELENE-2 is under development for the moon explorer rover in Japan. AXS(Active X-ray Spectrometer) sensor development among the candidated payloads will be on going by the world-wide co-operation. The thermal design, analysis and test will be specially performed by Korean institutes. CFD techniques are used for the conceptual design and analysis. Thin-shell plate meshes being applied by Monte-Carlo Ray Tracing Method are generated for the thermal radiation analysis. Lumped capacity model is employed for the thermal conduction simulation of the AXS payload itself. Various shapes of the payload configuration with thermal boundary conditions are proposed and selected on the purpose of the analysis of the initial design. The results of the analysis are supposed to be used as the baseline for the further detailed design of the AXS payload in the future.

The newly discovered minerals found during 30 years have been discovered with election microprobe analysis, and several other new minerals have been described largely on the basis of probe analysis. Widely used types of instrument are the wavelength dispersive spectrometer (WDS) and the energy dispersive Spectrometer (EDS), with emitted X-ray dispersed by a curved crystal that is arranged to satisfy the Bragg equation ($n{\lambda}=2dsin{\theta}$). Atomic Nos of Z 4 to 92 can be analyzed quantitatively if they present in amount exceeding 50~100ppm. The application of the microprobe in mineralogical and geological research is quantitative chemical analysis of grains as small as a few microns in diameter, individual grains in a rock or can be analyzed in thin section and polished section, analysis can be made comparatively short time, methods in non-destructure, to photographical and crystallographical information. This paper was written in order to document data evaluation procedure for quantitative energy dispersive election probe analysis.

The material used in this experiment is Ha-Dong kaolin whichis composed of almost crystallographically pure meta-halloysite. It was grinded and passed through 250 mesh and 325 mesh. It was treated with oxalic acids and EDTA which are different in concentration. The samples in conical beaker were kept in laboratory incubator at $25^{\circ}C$ for a certain hours. The treated samples were stirred twice a day. The sample in the conditions as A-7 was kept in an autoclave under the pressure of 3 atmospheric. The samples suspended in each solution were kept for 1.5, 3 and 6 months. The transformation of crystals was detected by X-ray spectrometer, electron microscopy, and infrared spectrometer. The sample through 325 mesh compared with one through 250 mesh was transformed much more. It took for 6 months to transfer from halloysite to kaolinite in EDTA, and 3~4 months under 3 atms in autoclave at the same condition. In oxalic acids it took more than 6 months.

Multivariate analysis such as factor analysis was applied to interpret multivariate data, which were obtained from the overlapped X-ray fluorescence spectra. X-ray fluorescence spectra of 11 reference samples were obtained by the wavelength dispersive spectrometer at a specified range of angle such as $33.50∼34.50^{\circ}$. The data matrix was made from the spectra of 8 samples. The results of abstract factor analysis gave three factors. By the target testing with 8 elements contained in the reference samples, the three factors were found to be Pb, As and Cu. The concentration of these elements in the test samples was determined by target transformation factor analysis regardless overlapping individual peaks.
