Recently, considerable researches have been focused to find out inexpensive sorbents. for removal of heavy metals in aquatic environments. In particular, various natural materials including geologic media have been attractive. In order to evaluate the applicability of the scoria taken from the Jeju island, Korea, to remove Zn(II) from aqueous solutions, the kinetic sorption experiments were performed in this study. The batch-type kinetic sorption tests were carried out under different conditions, such as different initial Zn(II) concentration, particle size of the scoria, and sorbate/sorbent ratio. The results indicated that the removal of Zn(II) by scoria increased with decreases in initial Zn(II) concentration, particle size of the scoria, and sorbate/sorbent ratio. However, the sorption capacity of the scoria decreased with increasing amount of the scoria. The sorption behavior of Zn(II) onto scoria seemed to be mainly controlled by cation exchange.

Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations with new interatomic potential function including the covalent bond were performed on the phase transition of $\alpha$-quartz-type GeO2 under high pressure. The optimized crystal structure and the pressure dependence of the lattice constant showed higher reproducibility than the previous models and were in very good agreement with the experimental data. A phase transition of $\alpha$-quartz and $\alpha$-quartz-type GeO2 by simulation was found approximately 24 GPa and 6-7 GPa, respectively. This phase transition involved an abrupt volume shrinkage and showed 4-6 coordination mixed structure with the increasing in the coordination number of cation.

At present studies, we are going to suggest the new type of Perovskite derived catalysts which modify the defects of transition metals impregnated. Perovskite type catalyst is a typical mixed metal oxides, and there are "defect"s (from like that oxygen, cation, crystallic structure) were made by difference from composition, preparing method and so forth. And because this, its electro-magnetic character could be much changed. By using this phenomena, it could utilize the modification of adsorption/desorption characters as well as the catalytic activities in NOx reduction. Because perovskite type catalyst can exchange the metal of the each lattice site freely and it is possible to represent the peculiar.

ABO2 형태를 가진 delafossite 구조 산화물은 p-type 투명전도체 소재로 유명하다. Delafossite 구조가 p-type 투명전도체에 적합한 결정적인 이유는 밴드갭이 넓고 공유결합에 유리하기 때문이다. 투명전도체는 가시광선의 흡수가 없도록 band gap을 넓히는 것이 우선인데 이러한 band gap이 넓은 구조가 delafossite이다. 또한 delafossite 구조는 구조적으로 각각의 산화물 이온들이 유사 사면체 배위(pseudo-tetrahedral coordination)을 갖는다. 이러한 사면체 배위결합구조에서 산소이온은 비결합면이 없기 때문에 더욱더 공유결합성을 향상시킬 것으로 생각된다. 여기서 A는 +1가 cation, B은 +3가 cation으로 구성되어 있다. A자리에는 1가 원소인 팔라듐, 플래티늄, 은, 구리 등을 가질 수 있고. B자리에 3가 원소이면서도 크기가 알루미늄보다는 크고 란타늄보다는 작은 금속이 들어갈 수 있다. Delafossite 구조는 상온에서 2종류의 polytype (상온에서 Rhombohedaral 구조와 hexagonal 구조)이 존재하며 이들은 각각 3R(Rm) 및2H (P63/mmc)의 결정 구조를 가지고 있다. CuCrO2는 일반적으로 3R결정구조를 가지는 것으로 알려져 있다. delafossite 구조는 전기적 이방성을 띄고 있는데 c-축 방향으로의 전기적 특성이 a-축 방향으로의 전기적 특성보다 약 1000배 높은 물성을 띈다고 한다. 이는 c-축 방향의 원자 위치 때문인데 CuCrO2의 경우 Cu-O-Cr-O-Cu로서 3d-2p-3d-2p-3d 궤도를 가지기 때문인 것으로 알려져 있다.[ref] 반면 c-축으로 에피성장된 박막의 경우 +3가 이온이 위치한 layer에서 hole hopping에 의해 캐리어가 전도된다고 알려져 있기도 하다. 본 연구에서는 PLD를 이용하여 c-plane 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 delafossite구조인 CuCrO2박막의 특성을 알아보았다. p-type 특성을 위하여 CuCrO2에 Ni를 첨가하였으며 그에 따른 구조적 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 성장온도와 도핑농도를 변화시켜 특성을 연구하였다. 결정구조적 특성과 전기적 특성을 분석하려 한다.

The over-expression of Arabidopsis CAX1 and CAX2 causes transgenic tomato plants to reveal severe $Ca^{2+}$ deficiency-like symptoms such as tip-burn and/or blossom end rot, despite there being sufficient $Ca^{2+}$ in each plant part. To correct the symptoms and to moderately enhance the calcium level, a worldwide vegetable tomato was genetically engineered using a modified Arabidopsis cation/$H^+$ antiporter sCAX2A, a mutant form of Arabidopsis CAX2. Compared with the wild-type, the sCAX2A-expressing tomato plants demonstrated elevated $Ca^{2+}$ levels in the fruits with almost no changes in the levels of $Mn^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, and $Fe^{2+}$. Moreover, expression of sCAX2A in tomato plants did not show any significant alterations in their morphological phenotypes. Unlike 35S::sCAX1 construct, sCAX2A antiporter gene driven by 35S promoter can be a valuable tool for enriching $Ca^{2+}$ contents in the tomato fruit without additional accumulation of the undesirable cations.

A cement industrial by-product was used as a Ca source for the carbonation process. It was confirmed that the most of cement industrial by-products was composed of CaO and KCl through ICP and XRD analyses. The optimal extractant type and concentration was 1.5 M of hydrochloric acid, and the solid/liquid ratio was 0.1 g/mL. It was assumed that the cation extraction efficiency was dependent of the pair ions and their binding formation and also the solubility from extraction efficiency results by varing extractants. After extraction process, it was also confirmed that the cation could be selectively separated from the solution with respect to the kind of additives and the injection order. When NaOH was injected into the solution to control pH values ranging from 9.5 and 13, impurities and $Ca(OH)_2$ were precipitated, whereas the separated K ion was precipitated in the form of KCl under the injected $C_2H_5OH$.

In this review, we summarized some of membrane processes using the ion exchange membrane typically used in energy applications. Ion exchange membranes are classified according to their functions, formations (e.g. heterogeneous, homogeneous), and polymer type. Furthermore, various methods to prepare cation exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes were discussed in detail and also illustrated through a thorough review of the literature works. There are numerous reports highlighting recent research trends in the ion exchange membrane fabrication, however, in this review we will focus more on discussing the development made in ion exchange membranes and their potential usages in future technologies.

Irradiation of an acetonitrile solution containing dimethylbis(4-vinylphenylmethyl)silane 1a in the presence of 9,10-dicyanoanthracene leads to formation of the intramolecular photocycloadduct, 2-sila-cyclobuta[2.3]cyclophane(2a). In contrast, prolonged irradiation gave insoluble polymeric material. The photocycloreversion of 2a occurs efficiently (quantum yields exceeds unity) by use of redox-type photosensitization in the presence of magnesium perchlorate. The transient absorption spectra generated by pulse radiolysis and gamma-radiolysis show that the radical cation species generated from 1a is different from that arising from 2a.

Group 6 $M(CO)_4$(2, 2'-bipyridine)[M=Cr, Mo, W] was synthesized by substituting CO ligand of $M(CO)_6$ with strong electron donating ligand, 2, 2'-blpyridine, in the presence of phase transfer catalyst. The effective of catalyst and solvent on the product yield were discussed according to concentration and kinds of catalyst, kinds of center cation and anion, type of alkyl and aryl groups attached to the center cation, and different chain length.
