This pot experiment was undertaken to find out the optimum fertilization ratios of total anions to total cations, ${\Sigma}A/{\Sigma}C$, and the optimum application rates of total macro-nutrients in various soil conditions. Soil samples were collected from uncultivated mountains and hills where grassland development was under consideration. 1. The optimum application ratios of ${\Sigma}A/{\Sigma}C$ and the optimum application rates of total macro-nutrients for the high yields of mixed grass-clover sward in various grassland soils were computed by the Hom$\acute{e}$s systematic variation techniqu.e. 2. With respect to the optimum application ratios of ${\Sigma}A/{\Sigma}C$ in fertilization in a mixed grass-clover sward, the grass yield and botanical composition were distinctly proportional to ${\Sigma}A$ wheras the regume yield and botanical composition were proportional to ${\Sigma}C$. 3. The optimum fertilization rates of total macro-nutrients for the high legume yields were depended upon ${\Sigma}A/{\Sigma}C$ ratios. These optimum rates were in proportional to ${\Sigma}C$ ratios and were inversely proportional to ${\Sigma}A$ ratios. 4. The efficiencies of ${\Sigma}A$ and ${\Sigma}C$ in relation to the grass and grass plus legume yields were highest with the low ratios of each other and the low fertilization rates of total macronutrients. The ${\Sigma}A$ effieiency in the legume yield tended to be similar to that of ${\Sigma}A$ related to the grass yield noted above except Daegu soil. The ${\Sigma}C$ efficiency, however, was proportional to the ${\Sigma}C$ ratio, although that was varied with the fertilization rates of total macro-nutrients and with the kinds of soils. 5. The yield of mixed forages, yield component, and botanical composition in a mixed sward were greatly influenced by the ${\Sigma}A/{\Sigma}C$ ratios, the fertilization rates of total macronutrients, and the interactions of ratio and rate noted above. In addition, these effects were generally different and opposite according to grass and legume.

In this study, the solid-liquid separation characteristics of swine wastewater were investigated for the coagulation and dissolved air flotation (DAF). Coagulation characteristics were studied using jar-tester with the different coagulants and dosage amounts. DAF characteristics were also investigated in terms of the different flotation conditions with the raw swine wastewater, pH adjustment only, and adding coagulants. When the raw swine wastewater was coagulated with the only inorganic coagulants, the proper inorganic coagulants were founded as $FeCl_3$ > PAC > Alum orderly, and the optimal coagulant dosages were founded as $1,000mg/{\ell}$, $1,500mg/{\ell}$, $1,500mg/{\ell}$, respectively. As the raw swine wastewater was treated with the polymer coagulants, the only cationic polymer coagulant showed an effective coagulation and the optimal dosage of cationic coagulant was founded as $200mg/{\ell}$. When the different dosages of cationic polymer was added to each $500mg/{\ell}$ of the inorganic coagulants, the proper inorganic coagulants were founded as $FeCl_3$ > Alum > PAC orderly, and optimal cationic polymer dosages was founded as $25mg/{\ell}$, $25mg/{\ell}$, and $100mg/{\ell}$, respectively. Resulting from the raw swine wastewater experiments using DAF without coagulation, the proper operation conditions of DAF were set to 400% of recycling ratio, 4 atm in air dissolving tank, and under pH 3. But the raw swine wastewater was difficult to successfully operate DAF without pre-coagulation. While the DAF separation after pre-coagulation using inorganic coagulants was not accomplished due to the low intensity of the floc, DAF after pre-coagulation using both the inorganic and cationic polymer coagulants was accomplished very well. Optimal dosage of cationic polymer coagulant in case of $500mg/{\ell}$ Alum dosage was founded as $500mg/{\ell}$.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of the stream current detector (SCD) and charge analyzing system (CAS), which are well known as the automatic coagulant dosage determination instruments. When the SCD system was used, the current charge value set at pH 9.3 could not be used as the coagulant dosage when the pH of the raw water decreased to 5.7, and the current charge value corresponding to pH 5.7 was required to be reset. In case of CAS system, polydadmac is stable as a cationic titrant when the pH of the raw water ranged 9.3 to 6.0. And it was effective to use polydadmac as a cationic titrant for high turbidity water. The current charge of polydadmac was almost constant between pH 5 and 11, however, the difference in charge of alum is six times in this pH range. Therefore, when the pH of the raw water was changed, it seems that the coagulant used in the actual water treatment plant was as a good cationic titrant.

The swine wastewater from slurry feedlot has been a social problem in Korea since the proper treatment is very difficult. Therefore, a practical study on the Solid-Liquid separation of swine wastewater from slurry feedlot was carried out as a pan of pretreatment for the successful biological treatment. The appropriate type of coagulant and optimum dosage were proposed for the most efficient Solid-Liquid separation and the best Solid-Liquid separation methods for different size of feedlot were determined through the tests with field-scaled Solid-Liquid separation equipment. The appropriate coagulant for the conditioning of dewatering property was E-851, which is a cationic polyelectrolyte made of polyacrylamide, and the optimum dosage was 0.24~0.6% of unit solids weight. Mesh Screen, Drum Screen, Cyclone Drum Filter, Screw Press, High-speed Screw Decanter, Low-speed Screw Decanter, and Dissolved Air Flotation Process had been investigated in this study. According to the results, the Screw Press was the best dewatering equipment for the small & medium size for feedlot and low-speed Screw Decanter was the best for the large size feedlot & public owned treatment facilities for the primary Solid-Liquid separation, and the most suitable secondary treatment process was DAF. On the other hand, reductions for the requirement of bulking agent and organic loading by Solid-Liquid separation process were 94.8% and 84.7%, respectively Therefore, the Solid-Liquid separation process must be required for the successful treatment of swine wastewater from slurry feedlot.

Ethylenediamine-triacetatocobalt (III) complexes with an ammine, an ethylene-diamine, and a trimethylenediamine as the unidentate ligand were prepared, and were isolated as only one isomer for each case by the Dowex 50W-X8, cation exchange resin in $H^+$ form. The geometrical isomer of these complexes have been assigned cis-equatorial form in the three possible geometrical isomers from the elemental analysis, pH titration, IR, NMR, and electronic absorption spectrum. It was found that $[CoN_3O_3]$ system of the meridional form with multidentate ligand have the first absorption band of the largely splitting pattern, and that the diamines (ethylenediamine, trimethylenediamine) have coordinated to the central cobalt (III) ion as a unidentate ligand.

The pseudophase separation model is used to describe the effects of pH and n-propanol on the mixed micellar formation of protonated and unprotonated dimethyldodecylamine oxides. Dimethyl-dodecylamine oxide surfactant molecules may exist in aqueous solution in either nonionic (unprotonated) or cationic (protonated) form, and they can be modeled thermodynamically as a binary mixture of cationic and nonionic surfactants. The composition of the binary mixture is varied by adjusting the solution pH. And activities, micellar compositions, and monomeric compositions of two surfactant species can be calculated directly from the experimental titration data by applying pseudophase separation model to the micellar system of DDAO in water/n-propanol. The critical micellar concentrations and the p$K_a$ values of the binary mixture systems are dependent on the micellar composition of the protonated cationic surfactant (X); especially they show the minimum phenomena when they are plotted against the micellar composition of the protonated cationic surfactant (X). The critical micellar concentration of the binary mixed DDAO system is generally decreased when n-propanol is added to the binary mixture system, and the degree of decrease is dependent on the concentration of n-propanol.

The magnetized water is known to have a unique pattern of hydrogen bond between water molecules, thereby producing different physicochemical properties from the ordinary water. We have examined the effect of magnetized water on the change of critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of some surfactants. The CMC changes of SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) and CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) dissolved in the magnetized water have been determined by the conductivity measurement at $25\;{^{\circ}C}$ and that of SDS, CTAB and Pluronic F-68 have also been examined by the surface tension method at $25\;{^{\circ}C}$. The CMC variation of SDS was examined by ITC (Isothermal Titration Calorimeter) at $25\;{^{\circ}C}$. The CMC of SDS, CTAB, and Pluronic F-68 are more decreased in the magnetized water, SDS is about $2.7{\sim}6.5$25 %, CTAB is about $2.3{\sim}3.0$%, and Pluronic F-68 is about 24.2 %, than in the control water.

Because ammonia in water body can cause water pollution as a result of generating ammonium ion, it is of importance in the management of water quality. This work performed to analyze the ammonium ion by measuring the color band length on the basis of modifying the indophenol method. When 1-naphthol was employed as a coloring agent, the maximum absorbance was shown near 720nm, where the proper injection was in the range of 0.5-1.5ml. About 80% of absorbance was observed after the color development was made within the 20 minutes. In the manufacturing of coloring agent, the proper concentration of NaOH was 1.5-2.5M, and the effect of pH on the color development is negligible. In addition, the color development was effectively in the region of room temperature.

Organobentonite modified with hexadecyltrimethylammonium (HDTMA) was used to quantify adsorption of heavy metals. Adsorption of cadmium and lead increased with increasing pH and soil/solution ratio. Based on these experiments, an optimal soil/solution ratio and an optimal pH was selected. Adsorption experiments with cadmium and lead were conducted to quantify adsorption selectivity on bentonite and organobentonite. Adsorption of heavy metals on organobentonite was slightly reduced relative to bentonite. Because of competition between cadmium and lead, adsorption of each metal was reduced due to the presence of the other. Adsorption selectivity of cadmium was higher than lead. This study used the principle of hard soft-acid-base (HSAB) to interpret adsorption.

In this study farm soil was tested under artificial acid rain(pH = 5.34), which is average pH of Pusan metropolitan area. and to find out the soil's acid neuralization capacity, soil acidity, CEC(cation exchange capacity)and akaline meatals, such as K, Ca and Na were tested. Because oyster shells(OS) had portion of alkaline metals, OS could play a role in acid soil amendment. And soil addition of sewage treatment sludge(STS) could be a alternative for disposal method. The purpose of this study is to evlauate acid soil amendment using STS and OS. In case of soil and STS, mixing ratio was10:0, 9:1, 8:2, 7:3. And STS mixed OS was also added in acid soil as same ratio as STS. Throught the experiment, soil acidity was stationary state with slight decrease, and CEC was also stationary state but with slight increase. Allkaline metals showed differences in concentration, but all of them were tend to decrease. In conclusion, STS mixed OS could play a part in amendment of acid soil.
