In order to utilize incineration fly ash of industrial wastes as resources, we present the recovery and separation of metals included in the fly ash by leaching with aqueous solution A great quantity of Cu, Pb, and Zn as well as a small amount oftoxic heavy metals are contained in the leach liquor of the fly ash, and the concentration of the ingredients of the fly ash depends on the industrial wastes which are fed into incinerators. In this paper, sequential Ieachiog operations are conducted using $H_2O$, $H_2SO_4$, $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ and NaOH as Icachants. Water soluble copper salt was leached by $H_2O$, Zn and Pb were separated by the NaOH leach liquor, and water insoluble copper was selectively leached as chelate ion with the $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ leach liquor of the third Ieaehant. Results show that the reduction percent of the fly ash in the leaching steps using $H_2O$, $H_2SO_4$, and $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ is 77%, and the other leaching procedures lose the weight of fly ash by above 60%.

Purification of silica mineral was compared with various leaching methods such as shaking, stirring, ultrasonic with 2.5% HF/HCl solution. Among them, ultrasonic method showed a best leaching effect. From the leaching experiment, Na, K, Fe, Al exist as the major impurity elements. The removal rate of Al, Fe showed little difference with various leaching methods but Ca, Mn, Na were very different. Four kinds of silica mineral (>99% purity) after physical purification treatment were used for ultrasonic leaching experiment. Among them IN-Si had a highest impurity removal rate. Ca, Cr, K, Zn were removed above 80% using ultrasonic leaching method and Fe was also removed above 60%. But Al showed 10~60% removal rate with different samples.

It can be known that from leachate generated in the initial stage of landfill there are a lot of undecomposed orgainc materials, its sulfur component reduces to sulfide ion by sulfur reducing microorgarnisms as an anaerobic digestion proceeds, the sulfide ion makes the leachate discolor to black by forming metal sulfide sol, on condition that much more equivalent of sulfide ion than that of metal ion is present, and the metal sulfide sol can be generated to the precipitates by forming black-colored particulates. Therefore, we can confirm the important possibility for the economic and efficient treatment of leachate that it can be passivated, provided that much more equivalent of sulfide ion is present in the reaction of sulfide ion and metal ion.

The chemical compositions and antioxidant activity of green tea extracts in medilite-extraction water were compared to that of distilled water(DW). Antioxidant activity was fetermined by the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in rat liver homogenates and microsomes and the scavenging activity of free radicals by DPPH ($\alpha$, $\alpha$'-diphenyl-$\beta$-picrylhydrazyl). The order of total polyphenolic compounds and extracted yield by extracts was medilite 325 mesh-extraction water, medilite 600 mesh-extraction water and distilled water(DW). The ranges of scavenging activity of green tea extracts in DPPH method were 60.95% - 64.51%. The inhibition ratios of TBARS formation in the rat liver homogenates and microsomal fractions were significantly lower with green tea extracts by DW-extraction than with both medilite 325 mesh and 600 mesh-extraction water. The concentration of iron ion of water containing medilite 325 mesh and green tea extracts and of water containing medilite 600 mesh and green tea extracts were significantly higher compared to DW. Therefore, this result suggested that enhanced concentration of iron ion in green tea extracts by medilite-extraction water containing high iron ion content was associated with enhanced peroxidation of the rat liver microsomal fractions. These results showed that total polyphenolic compounds, the % of yield and mineral compounds of green tea extracts were increased using medilite 325 mesh and 600 mesh-extraction water.

침출수를 처리하는 방법은 여러가지가 있으나 주로 생물학적 처리방법과 물리화학적 처리 방법으로 구분할수 있다. 특히 침출수는 매립물의 종류에 따라 침출수 수질이 상당히 차이가 나는데 도시쓰레기 매립에 의한 일반폐기물 침출수는 그 처리 및 관리가 용이하나 특정 폐기물 침출수는 염의 농도가 높고 중금속을 다량 함유하고 있어 1차 처리후에도 방류가 곤란하다. 이 경우는 특정 폐기물 매립지인 H매립장의 침출수에 대하여 Pilot Test를 통한 적정 Process 경제성을 검토한 것이다.

As a basic study on recovery of valuable metals such as vanadium and nickel from metal oxide obtained from waste orimulsion ash, we conducted selectively leaching of vanadium and nickel using $Na_2CO_3$ leaching and ammoniacal leaching, respectively. The 97% of vanadium was selectively leached at an optimum experimental condition, 50g/L $Na_2CO_3$, pulp density 50g/L, and 35% $H_2O_2$ 50ml/L, $25^{\circ}C$... for 1 hr, whereas no nickel was leached. In ammoniacal leaching study, 95% of nickel was selectively leached at the optimal experimental condition, $NH_4OH\;2M,\;(NH_4){_2}SO_4$ 1.5M, pulp density 50g/L, 25, for 4 hr along with 3% of vanadium.

Purification of silica mineral has been investigated by acid leaching of pulverized silica. A series of studies has been carried out on the effect of leaching silica powder as a function of the leaching time at the constant temperature of $80^{\circ}C$ in oxalic acid, aqua regia, and two mixed acids of HF/HCl, $HF/HNO_3$. The impurities of silica and leachantes were measured by neutron activation analysis (NAA), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), atomic absorption spectrometry, x-ray fluorescence (XRF) method and wet analysis (WA). Certain metals, such as sodium, calcium, iron, aluminium and titanium, have been found in concentrations of hundreds or even thousands of mg/kg. Comparison of purification processes of silica and analytical methods of impurities in the silica was conducted in this study.

The present study concerns the leachability of alkali ions from hardened cement paste in terms of an increase in the pH together with the rate of alkali leaching. To evaluate the influence of mix design on the leaching capacity and rate of alkali, different water-cement ratios (W/C) and binders were used to manufacture paste specimens. The cement paste was made in the form of rectangular bucket where deionised water was subsequently supplied as solvent media. Then the specimen was wrapped in polythene film to avoid contact to atmospheric conditions, which may affect the water chemistry in the bucket. The pH of media was monitored until no further change in the pH value was observed, of which value then used to calculate the leaching capacity and rate. The influence of binder on the pH of solvent is more dominant than that of water to cement ratio: OPC paste produced the highest level of alkali leaching, whilst 30% PFA and 60% GGBS pastes imposed lower level of alkali leaching. After the monitoring of the pH, the inner bucket was ground with an increment of 1.0 mm to measure the leaching influence using the suspension consisting of paste powder and deionised water. It was found that the impact zone for OPC was about 7-8 mm, whilst 30% PFA and 60% GGBS had deeper impact depth of the alkali leaching.

Effect of ball milling treatment on the hydrochloric acid leaching performance of black dross was investigated to recover alumina. Ball milling time and speed showed limited effect on the leaching behavior of the alumina in the mechanically dross. Under the optimum mechanical activation condition (for 1h at 700 rpm), the leaching of alumina in hydrochloric acid solution was significantly affected by leaching time and reaction temperature. MgO was completely dissolved in most of the leaching conditions, while a small amount of Ca, Fe, Si and Ti oxides was dissolved. Although 80% of alumina was dissolved, the dissolved minor components such as Ca, Fe, Mg, Si and Ti oxides should be separated to recover pure alumina solution.

A study on the recovery of gallium from zinc residues is carried out by alkali leaching using NaOH. The results show that in case of alkali leaching of zinc residues, Zn, K and Si are mainly leached out and Fe and other base metals are scarcely leached out, which results in that gallium is easily recovered by solvent extraction. The leaching efficiency of gallium increases with increasing alkali concentration and solid density. Especially, alkali consumption is considerably reduced by washing the zinc residues with water before leaching in order to eleminate the soluble zinc compounds. The gallium from zinc residues is found to be leached out with a recovery of 80% or higher for 2hrs leaching with 1~1.25 M/L NaOH solution and solid density 333 g/L at $25^{\circ}C$.
