In this study, ten different bio-adsorbents were prepared by immobilization of vegetable tannins such as mimosa(Catechol Tannin) and chestnut(Pyrogallol Tannin) on the collagen matrix which was derived from during leather manufacturing processing. Removal efficiency of Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cr(III) by each bio-adsorbent in synthetic wastewater was evaluated by a laboratory-scale batch reactor at different reaction conditions. When mimosa was used as a vegetable tannin, the penetration efficiency of mimosa into the inner bundle of fiber depended on the dose of the naphthalene condensated penetrant; 3% ${\geq}$ 1.5% > 0%. For all bio-adsorbents, removal of heavy metal ions was not observed below pH 3.0 but was rapidly increased between pH 3.0 and 6.0, showing near complete removal of all heavy metal ions except Zn(II) above pH 6.0. Removal of Cr(III) was quite similar for all bio-adsorbents while removal of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) was higher by bio-adsorbents immobilized with chestnut than that by mimosa. Adsorption of Pb(II) and Cu(II) by S10 bio-adsorbent was little affected by the presence of monovalent and divalent electrolytes as well as variation of 1000 times ionic concentration with $NaNO_3$.

The cation-exchange adsorbent (CEA) was prepared by radiation-induced grafting of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto polypropylene (PP) fabric and its subsequently phosphonation. The adsorption characteristics of $Pb^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ and $Co^{2+}$ for the CEA were discussed. In the grafting of GMA onto PP fabric, the degree of grafting (%) increased with increasing reaction time, reaction temperature, and pre-irradiation dose. The maximum grafting yield was observed around 60% GMA concentration. The content of phosphoric acid ranges from 2.5 to 3.5 mmol/g with the 85% phosphoric acid. The adsorption of $Pb^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ and $Co^{2+}$ by the CEA was enhanced with increasing phosphoric acid content. The order of adsorption capacity of CEA was $Pb^{2+}$>$Co^{2+}$>$Cu^{2+}$.

Zeolite X with Si/Al molar ratio = 1.08~1.20 was produced using a hydrothermal synthesis method. Ion-exchanged zeolite X samples were then prepared by using metal nitrate solutions containing $Mg^{2+}$ or $Cu^{2+}$. For all zeolite X samples, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) were used to identify the change in crystal structure. The analysis of ammonia adsorption capability of zeolite X samples was conducted through the ammonia temperature-programmed desorption ($NH_3$-TPD) method. From XRD results, the prepared zeolite X samples maintained the Faujasite (FAU) structure regardless of cation contents in zeolite X, but the crystallinity of zeolite X containing $Mg^{2+}$ and $Cu^{2+}$ cations decreased. The distribution of cation contents in zeolite X was identified via EDS analysis. $NH_3$-TPD analysis showed that the $NH_3$ adsorption capacity of $Mg^{2+}$- and $Cu^{2+}$-zeolite X were 1.76 mmol/g and 2.35 mmol/g, respectively while the $Na^+$-zeolite X was 3.52 mmol/g ($NH_3/catalyst$). $Na^+$-zeolite X can thus be utilized as an adsorbent for the removal of ammonia in future.

본 연구에서는 NaCl 용응법에 의해 fly ash로부터 합성된 swelling mica의 다양한 이온의 교환특성과 이온교환이 결정구조에 미치는 영향을 규명함으로서 swelling mica에 의한 유해 방사능 물질 및 중금속의 효과적인 제거제로서의 활용 가능성을 조사하고자 하였다. 1가 양이온이 흡착된 FA-swelling mica의 $d_{001}$/ peak의 강도는 흡착된 이온의 직경이 클수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으나, $d_{001}$/ value는 흡착된 이온의 직경과 뚜렷한 상관관계가 없었다. 또한 FA-swelling mica의 NH4 이온의 흡착량은 133 $cmol^{+}$/kg, K 이온은 127 $cmol^{+}$/kg, Li 이온은 23 $cmol^{+}$/kg으로서 방사성 물질과 중금속 이온에 비해 낮은 경향을 나타내었다. 2가 양이온이 흡착된 FA-swelling mica의 $d_{001}$/ peak 강도와 $d_{001}$/ value는 이온의 직경에 관계없이 비슷한 값을 나타내었으며 1가 양이온의 흡착에 비해 구조적 안정성이 높았다. Sr 및 Ba 이온의 흡착반응은 느리고 지속적으로 일어났으며 Ca와 Mg 같은 2가 양이온에 비해 선택성이 훨씬 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 Sr 및 Ba 이온과 같이 직경이 큰 방사성 원소들은 swelling mica의 층간에 흡착되어 결정구조가 부분적으로 붕괴됨으로서 이온을 비가역적으로 고정하는 특성을 나타내었다. Zn, Cu, Cd 및 Pb 등의 중금속 이온이 흡착된 FA-swelling mica의 $d_{001}$/ value는 12.70~12.80$\AA$으로서 매우 일정하였으며, 이온 흡착에 의한 층간 팽창정도는 이온의 크기뿐만 아니라 수화정도에 따라 상이하였다. FA-swelling mica의 중금속 이온의 흡착은 층간 붕괴에 의해 일어나는 것으로 판단되며, 선택성과 흡착능력은 층간 붕괴속도와 비례하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 FA-swelling mica의 중금속 이온의 선택성은 Pb>Cu>Cd$\geq$Zn 순으로 나타났다.

In order to prepare high performance polymeric membrane, the crosslinked chitosan(C. Chitosan)membrane was prepared, the transport and the selective separation of the metal ions through the membrane were investigated. It was observed that the transport rates of the metal ions through the membrane increased according to the decreasing of the initial pH in downstream solution. Proton pump mechanism for this transport phenomenon was suggested. The transport selectivity is dependent on the selective adsorption resulting from the complex formation of chitosan with each metal ion. The separatin factor(${\alpha}_{Cu}{^{2+}}$) for the membrane was 9.5.

Pure and Fe-doped CuO thin-film and powder samples were prepared using a sol-gel method. Undoped CuO films exhibited monoclinic structure and p-type electrical conductivity $(\~10^{-2}\;{\Omega^{-1}\;cm^{-1}$ due to copper deficiency. On the other hand, CuO: Fe films were found to be insulating and Li doping on the films led to a restoration of p-type conductivity and a ferromagnetic hysteresis behaviour at room temperature. The observed properties far the CuO : Fe, Li films can be explained in terms of hole creation by substitution of $Li^+$ for $Cu^{2+}$ sites and mediation of long-range interactions between $Fe^{3+}$ ions by the $Li^+$-induced defect states. CuO: Fe powders exhibited a ferromagnetism at room temperature with its strength being dependent on post-annealing temperature. Mossbauer measurements on the CuO: Fe films and powders revealed that the octahedral $Cu^{2+}$ sites are mostly substituted by $Fe^{3+}$ ions.

The complex formation of branched poly(ethylene imine) (BPEI) with bivalent transition metal ions, such as Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II), have been investigated in terms of visible absorption and pH titration methods in an aqueous solution in 0.1M KCl at 30${\circ}$. The stability constants for M(II)-BPEI complexes was calculated with the modified Bjerrum method. The formation curves of M(II)-BPEI complexes showed that Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) ions formed coordination compounds with four, two, two, and two ethylene imine group, respectively. In the case of Cu(II)-BPEI complex at pH 3.4 ∼ 3.8, ${\lambda}_{max}$ was shifted to the red region with a decrease in the acidity. The overall stability constants (log $K_2$) increased as the following order, Co(II) < Cu(II) < Ni(II) < Fe(II).

In this study, the extraction of Co(Ⅱ) and Cu(Ⅱ) into chloroform solution of dithizone, distribution ratios, extractabilities and extraction rate constants of the metal complexes were compared in each case with which thiocyanate ion was or not used as the auxiliary ligand. The use of the thiocyanate ion increased threefold the distribution ratio for Co(Ⅱ) complex in a basic solution and twofold for Cu(Ⅱ) complex in a wide pH range. And the extractability was also augmented from about 90 to 99 for Co(Ⅱ) and from 95 to 99 for Cu(Ⅱ) in a given period. The extraction rate constants were $k_1\;:\;1.2{\times}10^5$, $k_2\;:\;1.34{\times}10^{17}\; mol^{-1}dm^3s^{-1}$ in case of Co(Ⅱ) and$k_1\;:\;1.1{\times}10^8$, $k_2\;:\;2.83{\times}10^{10}\; mol^{-1}dm^3s^{-1}$ in case of Cu(Ⅱ) on the extraction of dithizonate complexes into chloroform solution.

A surface of polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) was modified with changing ion doses by 1 keV $Ar^+$ ion irradiation and Cu films having thickness $5000\;{\AA}$ were deposited on the modified PTFE. The SEM study showed that the surface texture of modified PTFE was in the form of cones whose height increased depending on ion doses. Through XPS spectra, it was found that the intensity of F ls peaks decreased with ion doses by preferential sputtering of F atoms and the C-C and / or C-F chains were formed by the crosslinking in the newly unstable chains. Cu films were deposited uniformly along the filaments formed on the modified PTFE. In x-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra of deposited Cu films on modified PTFE, a preferred orientation along (111) and (200) planes was found and the peak intensity of (111) plane increased as surface roughness of modified PTFE increased. The resistivity of Cu films was changed from $2.7{\mu}{\Omega}cm$ of unmodified PTFE to $4.3{\mu}{\Omega}cm$ of modified PTFE at ion dose of $1{\times}10^{16}/\textrm{cm}^2$ and the abrupt increase of resistivity in the modified PTFE at ion dose of $1{\times}10^{17}/\textrm{cm}^2$ was due to being cut off the film which resulted from the increased surface roughness.
