The purpose of this study is to measure the environmental effects of different alternative building materials. The following building materials were tested: clay bricks, cement wall, and red-clay plaster. Four mock-up models were constructed using clay bricks, cement wall, red-clay plaster and the last model as the control model. The effects of the above four building materials on temperature, humidity, the emissions of formaldehyde, and V.O.C were measured. This experiment was conducted during September. The conclusions are as follows. Clay bricks were able to control temperature, humidity and filter formaldehyde by itself. The environment within the cement wall was not affected by the humidity changes outside. Red-clay plaster walls had little impact on the environment because it is very thin.!

일본에서 적색 라꾸용 원료로 사용중인 황토는 장기간 사용으로 매장량이 감소되어 대체 원료를 개발하고자 노력중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 일본 라꾸요장에서 사용되는 일본 시가현 고우가시 시가라끼 황토를 분석하여 이와 동일한 색상의 화장토를 개발 하고자 하였다. 일본 시가라끼 황토에 함유된 Goethite와 Wustite의 양을 Raman에 의한 "상대 정량분석법"으로 분석한 결과 일본 시가라끼 황토 내에 함유된 산화철 9.4 %에는 Goethite가 5 %, Wustite가 4.4 %로 구성되어 있으며 이를 $900^{\circ}C$에 넣어 10분간 소성 시 적색을 나타내는 것은 Goethite가 Hematite로 전이되면서 Hematite에 Alumina와 Silica가 고용되기 때문이다. 일본 시가라끼 황토에 함유된 산화철의 양을 기초로 일본 적색 화장토와 같은 색상을 나타내는 것은 하동 White Kaolin 100 g에 Goethite를 5 g, Wustite를 9 g을 첨가한 것이었으며 UV측정결과 $L^*a^*b^*$값은 각각 56.83, 27.22, 23.28이었다.

Creep of soils has a significant impact on mechanical properties. The one-dimensional consolidation creep test, thermal analysis test, scanning electron microscope (SEM) test, and mercury compression test were performed on Guilin red clay to study the changes in bound water and microstructure during the creep process of Guilin red clay. According to the results of the tests, only free and weakly bound water is discharged during the creep of Guilin red clay. When the consolidation pressure p is in the 12.5-400.0 kPa range, it is primarily the discharge of free water; when the consolidation pressure p is in the 800.0-1600.0 kPa range, the weakly bound water is converted to free water and discharged. After consolidation creep, the microstructure of soil changes from granular overhead contact structure to flat sheet-like stacking structure, with a decrease in the number of large and medium pores, an increase in the number of small and micro pores, and a decrease in the fractal dimension of pores. The creep process of red clay is the discharge of weakly bound water as well as the compression of large pores into small pores and the transition of soil particles from loose to dense.

The use of antibiotics in aquaculture raises environmental and food safety concerns because chronic exposure of an aquatic ecosystem to antibiotics can result in the spread of antibiotic resistance, bioaccumulation of antibiotics in the organisms, and transfer of antibiotics to humans. In an attempt to overcome these problems, high-concentration red clay was applied as an alternative antibiotic against the following common fish pathogens: Aeromonas salmonicida, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Streptococcus equinus. The growth of A. salmonicida and V. alginolyticus was retarded by red clay, whereas that of S. equinus was promoted. Phase contrast and scanning electron microscopy analyses confirmed the attachment of red clay on cell surfaces, resulting in rapid gravitational removal and cell surface damage in both A. salmonicida and V. alginolyticus, but not in S. equinus. Different cell wall properties of grampositive species may explain the unharmed cell surface of S. equinus. Significant levels of oxidative stress were generated in only the former two species, whereas significant changes in membrane permeability were found only in S. equinus, probably because of its physiological adaptation. The bacterial communities in water samples from Oncorhynchus mykiss aquacultures supplemented with red clay showed similar structure and diversity as those from oxytetracycline-treated water. Taken together, the antibiotic effects of high concentrations of red clay in aquaculture can be attributed to gravitational removal, cell surface damage, and oxidative stress production, and suggest that red clay may be used as an alternative for antibiotics in aquaculture.

This study is designed to apply natural clay replaceable redmud as ceramic material by mixing redmud with the materials used in existing brickmaking in laboratory environment. Therefore, through this study, the redmud is recycled as a raw material for clay bricks and presented as a basic material for the use of redmud in clay bricks.

본 연구는 6개월령의 한우 36두를 이용하여 양질 조사료의 보충(Rice straw;RT, Rice straw +cubed roughage;RCT)과 황토의 첨가수준(0%, 1%, 2% 황토)이 생산성, 육질 및 경제적 효과에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 실시하였다. 실험기간 동안 볏짚에 양질 조사료의 보충(cubed roughage, RCT)은 볏짚단독 처리(RT)에 비하여 일당증체, 사료효율 및 출하체중에서 각각 10%, 6.8%, 8.2%로서 유의적으로 증가되었으나(P$<$0.05), 황토의 첨가는 한우의 성장성적에 뚜렷한 효과는 없는 것으로 나타났고, 2%의 첨가수준은 오히려 감소되는 경향을 보였다. 육질 및 경제성 분석에서는 RCT구는 뚜렷한 개선효과를 보였지만, RT구에서는 황토 1%에서만 첨가 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. RCT구에서는 1%, 2% 모두가 0%에 비하여 보다 개선된 결과를 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과들은 한우 비육에 있어서 황토의 첨가는 성장성적에는 뚜렷한 효과가 나타나지 않았지만 육질과 경제적 효과에서는 1%의 첨가는 개선효과가 있는 것으로 사료되며, 고급육 생산을 위한 황토의 첨가시에는 양질의 조사료 보충이 경제적 효과성을 더욱 향상시킬 것으로 사료된다.

Acid rain of soils has a significant impact on mechanical properties. An X-ray diffraction test, scanning electron microscope (SEM) test, laser particle size analysis test, and triaxial unconsolidated undrained (UU) test were carried out in red clay soils with different compaction degrees under the effect of different concentrations of acid. The experiments demonstrated that: the dissolution effect of acid rain on colluvium weakened with the increase in the compacting degree under the condition of certain pH values, i.e., the damage to the structure of red clay soil was relatively light, where the number of newly increased pores in the soil decreased and the agglomeration of soil particles increased; for the same compacting degree, the structural gap decreased, and the agglomeration increased with the increase in the pH value (acidity decreases) of the acid rain; the dissolution rate of Si, Al, Fe, and other elemental minerals and cement in red clay soil was found to be higher under the effect of acid rain, in turn destroying the original structure of the soil body and producing a large number of pores. This is macroscopically expressed as the decrease of the soil cohesion and internal friction angle, thereby reducing the shear strength of the soil body.

In this study, we evaluated the early strength of red clay soil with the polymer aqueous solution at rammed earth construction. In order to satisfy the demolding strength of the formwork be due to the rammed of red clay soil, the polymer aqueous solution was added to evaluate the compressive strength at the early age according to the consolidation level. As a result, a high compressive strength was exhibited with the formulation to which the polymer aqueous solution was added.

In this study, the performance evaluation was performed by adding a polymer aqueous solution as a new additive of the red clay binder for use in the rammed earth construction method. The evaluation items were compressive strength and microstructure analysis. As a result of the experiment, the performance of the red clay binder was improved by efficiently bonding the silica particles by the polymerized polymer.

Periodically, harmful algal blooms (HABs) have occurred, with impacts on various areas including public health, tourism, and aquatic ecosystems, especially aquacultured and caged fisheries. To prevent or manage invasions of HABs into fish farms on an emergency basis, many methods have been proposed. Frequently over the past 30 years in coastal countries, treatments of clay and clay mixed with polyaluminum chloride (PAC) and chitosan have been tested for HAB-removal effectiveness in both the laboratory and the field. In Korea, yellow loess clay (hwangto) has been dispersed using electrolytic clay dispensers, both to decrease the amount of yellow loess clay's usage in containers and enhance HAB-removal efficiency. However, this emergency method has limitations, among which is the requirement for more effective controlling agents for field applications. Thus, in this paper, we review technologies for clay-based red tides prevention and control and their limitations, and, further, introduce next-generation algicidal technologies for the emergency protection of fish farms.
