The separation of rare earths minerals is very difficult because of their similar chemical properties. The rare earth minerals are used as the mixed rare earth minerals or the misch metal without separation to each element. However, the high purity rare earths are recently produced commercially to each element so they there are used as the materials for high tech. Based on the characterization results for the raw minerals, we have developed a combined process containing gravity seperation, magnetic seperation and flotation. The result obtained from this study is monazite concentration of TREO grade 69.11% and Recovery 56.02%.

The crustal structure of the southern part of the Korean peninsula has been investigated based on the results of processing and anlaysis of gravity data. The processing techniques involve i) seperation of regional and residual anomalies by polynomial fittings, ii) power spectral analyses to determine the mean depth to the crustal base, iii) a filtering operation called "high-cut filtering and resampling," and iv) downward continuation to determine the undulation of the crustal base. The Bouguer anomalies show a lineation in the NE-SW direction which is the same as that of most mountains and tectonic lines of this area. The mean crustal depth is found to be 34km. The depth of the crustal base is varying in the estimated range of 26km to 36km with a thinner crust below the east coast than that of the west coast. The relief of the crustal base is appeared to be correlated with the regional surface topography. The linear regression relations computed between elevations and gravity anomalies indicate that the crust of this area seems to be not in perfect isostatic equilibrium but a little undercompensated state.

The pectoralis major myocutaneous flap represents a major contribution to head and neck cancer reconstruction. Its advantages are improved viability, one-stage reconstruction, and carotid protection. The oropharyngeal defect especially tonsillar area reveals valley shaped one with loss of a wide mucosal area. Using pectoralis major myocutaneous flap to this defect is sometimes difficult due to its natural figure of bulkiness. This article reviews our experience with patients undergoing 14 pectoralis major myocutaneous flap in carcinoma of the tonsillar area. Complications and their incidences were I total loss, 3 marginal loss, 2 minor seperation of suture, I wound infection and 2 hematoma. Most of the complications did not require a second procedure for reconstruction. Bulkiness of the flap and gravity force to the upper suture line were thought to be causes of the complications. Modification of the flap design with bilobular figure was useful to reduce its bulkiness at the folding area. More stable suture around hard palate was needed to overcome seperation of the suture.

In this study, the separation efficiency of wind power selector (the direction of the air flow of the air to perform gravity separation method) of municipal solid waste which was landfilled was investigated to reduce amount of waste that is designed to increase the recycling rate of wastes for the ANSYS CFX Program's numerical methods with wind through the separator. When a suction device designed to suction 1000mL of a plastic bag, the separation efficiency was 100% and when the wind speed was 0.9 m /sec or more and when the wind speed was 1.6 m / sec or more, the efficiency of plastic bottles in a mixture of 500mL and 1500mL plastic bottle waste was 100% and the aluminum screening efficiency of 250mL aluminum can was 100 % when the wind speed was 2.3 m / sec. In the last, 5mm thick compressed aluminum can efficiency was 90 % when the wind speed was 2.4 m / sec.

During steelmaking on EAF, 1 ~ 2% of dust is generated. EAF Dust contains 20 ~ 30% of Zn and Fe. Dust contained in Off-gas is passed through combustion tower and cooling tower, and then captured in bag filter. About 15 wt.% of dust is dropped at the bottom of Combustion tower by its specific gravity, which was also carried out to recycle company with more higher charge than Bag filter dust. This study is focused on the combustion tower dust, and seperation as a function of operation period and particle size. As a result, Zn and Fe content of dust is more affected by size factor than operation period.
