본 연구에서는 화력발전소에서 발생하는 폐기물인 리젝트 애시를 자원화하기 위하여 시멘트 혼합재로 사용하는 방안을 검토하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 포졸란 활성도 비교를 통하여 효율적인 리젝트애시의 분말도를 선정하였으며, 현재 널리 사용되고 있는 콘크리트용 혼합재인 플라이애시와 비교하였다. 고분말 리젝트애시와 플라이애시를 슬래그시멘트와 혼합하여 시멘트복합체를 제조하였으며, 제조한 시멘트복합체 및 고분말 리젝트애시의 성능 평가를 위하여 페이스트(응결, 유동성, 기기분석), 모르타르(압축강도) 실험을 실시하였다. 기기분석 결과 고분말 리젝트애시의 수화반응기구는 플라이애시와 유사하지만 미세조직이 치밀해지는 특성을 나타내었다. 물성 측정결과에서는 고분말 리젝트애시가 플라이애시와 비교하여 응결지연이 감소하고, 초기강도 및 장기강도에서 우수한 성능을 나타내었다. 따라서 리젝트애시의 분말도를 $6,000cm^2$/g 수준으로 상향시킨다면 시멘트 복합체에 활용하는 것이 가능하며, 시멘트 물성 향상에도 기여할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

In this study, volcanic ash was used as raw material to prepare waste forms with different silicon/aluminum (Si/Al) molar ratios to immobilize sodium-salt waste (SSW) containing simulated ¹³⁷Cs. Effects of Si/Al molar ratios (3:1 and 2:1) and sodium salts on sintering behavior of waste forms and immobilization mechanism of Cs⁺ were investigated. Results indicated that the main mineral phase of sintered waste-form matrixes was albite, and the formation of major phases was found to depend on Si/Al molar ratios. Si/Al molar ratio of 2 was favorable for the formation of pollucite, and the formation and crystallization of mineral phases were also decided based on physicochemical characteristics of sodium salts. Furthermore, product consistency test results indicated that the immobilization of Cs⁺ was related to Si/Al molar ratio, types of sodium salts, and glassy phase. Waste forms with Si/Al molar ratio of 2 exhibited better ability to immobilize Cs⁺, whereas the influence of sodium salts and glassy phases on the immobilization of SSW showed more complicated relationship. In waste forms with Si/Al molar ratio of 2, Cs⁺ leaching concentrations of samples containing Na₂B₄O₇·10H₂O and NaOH were low. Na₂B₄O₇·10H₂O easily transformed into liquid phase during sintering to consequently achieve low temperature liquid-phase sintering, which is beneficial to avoid the volatilization of Cs⁺ at high temperature. Results clearly reveal that waste forms with Si/Al molar ratio of 2 and containing Na₂B₄O₇·10H₂O show excellent immobilization of Cs⁺.

광물탄산화 기술은 천연광물 및 산업부산물에 포함된 칼슘이나 마그네슘을 이산화탄소와 반응시켜 탄산염을 생성하는 기술로 이산화탄소를 열역학적으로 안정한 형태로 저장할 수 있는 기술이다. 본 연구는 철강슬래그를 이용한 이산화탄소 저감 및 추출 후 슬래그 재활용을 통해 환경적 부담 및 공정 비용 절감을 절감할 수 있는 광물탄산화 상용화 기술 개발을 목표로 설정하였다. 추출 용매(염화암모늄)를 사용하여 괴재 및 전로슬래그로부터 칼슘을 추출하고 추출된 칼슘을 이산화탄소와 반응시켜 순도 98% 이상의 탄산칼슘을 합성하였다. 또한 칼슘 추출 후 슬래그를 건축자재(패널)로 활용하는 기술을 개발하였다. 슬래그의 칼슘 추출효율에 따라 상이한 결과를 보였지만 광물탄산화 전체 공정에 있어 중량 비(약 80-90%)를 차지하는 칼슘 추출 후 슬래그(잔여슬래그)의 활용을 통해 광물탄산화 공정으로부터 배출되는 산업부산물의 양을 최소화하고자 하였다. 잔여슬래그는 시멘트 패널 제작에 활용되는 규사미분 대체 물질로서 이용하였고 기존 시멘트 패널과 물성평가(압축강도 및 휨강도)를 상호 비교하였다. 용액 내 칼슘 농도는 유도결합 플라즈마 분광분석기(Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer, ICP-OES)를 사용하여 분석하였다. 합성한 탄산칼슘은 X선 회절 분석법(X-ray diffraction, XRD)을 이용하여 결정학적 특성 및 정량 분석하였고 주사 전자 현미경(Field emission scanning electron microscope, FE-SEM)을 사용하여 표면 형상을 확인하였다. 시멘트 패널평가는 KS L ISO 679에 준하여 패널 제작 및 패널의 압축강도와 휨강도를 측정하였다.

Recently. as the alternatives to preserve environment such as effective usage of wastes or unusable resources are drawing attentions, researches and measures for the two tasks, which are reuse of waste wood and development of eco-friendly materials, are being examined and established in various fields. However, they are still insufficient. Therefore, in this study, for the efficient application of waste woods and eco-friendly effects, mortar was produced using sawdust af the waste wood and mineral material cement for combination, in order to produce inorganic boards using waste woods, which were made when sawing. The present study purposed to analyze the physical and dynamic characteristics of woody cement boards, which were made by modifying water-cement ratio for each wood inclusion rate based on a hardening-accelerator inclusion rate set in previous studies and, based on the findings. to provide basic data about the physical properties of inorganic boards made of waste wood, in order to Produce woody cement boards using waste wood, which has problems in being used in the manufacturing of woody cement boards.

The increasing scourge of cancer epidemiology is a global concern. With WHO emphasizing that 40% of all cancer cases are preventable, exposure to known and suspected carcinogens must be discouraged. The battle with communicable diseases and other third world challenges has greatly de-emphasized anti-cancer campaigns in sub-Saharan Africa. The abundant deposit of mineral resources in sub-Saharan Africa has attracted high mining activity with its negative environmental aftermath. Poor regulatory mechanisms have led to environmental contamination by products of mining including heavy metals. In addition to poor urban planning, the springing up of settlements in industrial areas has led to generation and exposure to more hazardous wastes consequent on poor disposal systems. Studies establishing close association between exposure to heavy metals and cancer epidemiology in sub-Saharan Africa are increasing. The current review assesses the level of environmental pollution by heavy metals in sub-Saharan Africa, and brings to the fore available evidence implicating such in the increasing cancer epidemiology in the sub-continent.

The shell waste biomineralization process has known a tremendous metamorphosis and also the nanostructure with the identification of matrix proteins in oyster shells. However, proteins are represented in minor shell components and they are the major macromolecules that control biocrystal synthesis. Aragonite and calcite were derived from molluscan shells and evaluated the source of carbonate minerals and it helps for the formation of limestone. The oyster shell wastes are large and massive. The paleoecological study of oyster beds has discovered a near-shore and thin Upper Rudeis formation with storm influence during the accumulation of oysters with highly altered by disarticulation, bioerosion, and encrustation. It is possible even in the Paleozoic mollusks provided sufficient carbonate entirely to the source of microcrystalline of limestone. The present review is to discuss paleoecologically a number of oyster shell beds accumulated and sediment to form the different types of limestone during the Middle Miocene time.

Coffee is one of the most popular and consumed beverages in the world, which leads to a high contents of solid residue known as spent coffee grounds (SCG). As is known, coffee beans contain several classes of health related chemicals, including phenolic compounds, melanoidins, diterpenes, xanthines and carotenoids. The waste water coming out of coffee industries has high concentration of organic pollutants and is very harmful for surrounding water bodies, human health and aquatic life if discharged directly into the surface waters. Hence it is essential to treat and manage the coffee waste. Oyster shells are a waste product from mariculture that creates a major disposal problem in coastal regions of southeast Korea. In the study, the oyster shell waste was used to treat the coffee waste and its effluents. Oyster shells are calcined at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, and allowed to test the calcined CaO powder ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria in different aging coffee wastes. Calcined oyster shell powder showed anti-bacterial effect that inhibited cell growth of Escherichia coli and other bacterial forms. The antimicrobial activity of calcium oxide from oyster shell waste for biological treatment and utilization as a fertilizers with economic ecofriendly in nature.

In order to assess the effects of organic fertilizer on soil microbial community structure and diversity in the greenhouse fields, fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) was analyzed by the MIDI (Microbial ID, Inc., Newark, DE, U.S.A.) system and enumerations were performed. In relation to bacterial division of each sample, low GC Gram-positive bacteria were predominant among bacteria cultured on aerobic bacteria media. On the other hand, alpha subdivision was predominant on proteobacteria of control and OM (organic matter) 1 treated plot, and Flavobacterium spp. existed in OM2 plot on crystal violet media of all samples. Shannon-weaver Index (H) of OM1 plot varied most by 1.9 and 5.0 among bacteria cultured on aerobic bacteria media and crystal violet media, respectively. Our results revealed that addition of the organic wastes to soil led to a highly diverse microbial community, but the excessive amounts of organic and mineral fertilizer applied in the greenhouse fields produced excess nutrients in soil and led to simplification on bacterial populations.

포틀랜드 시멘트의 조성범위가 되도록 한 패각-주조분진-전로슬래그계 조합물의 클링커 소성성과 시멘트 광물 생성거동에 대하여 광물상과 미구조 관찰을 중심으로 연구하였다. 이 조합물은 원료의 특성상 융액 생성이 용이하여 시멘트 클링커는 일반 천연 원료를 사용한 경우에 비하여 10$0^{\circ}C$ 정도 낮은 온도에서 생성된다. 조합물 내의 유리산화칼슘은 135$0^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 완전히 소멸되며 alite나 belite와 같은 시멘트 주광물의 합성은 140$0^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도에서 과다한 유리상의 생성이 없이 완료된다.
