EAF dust generated from electric arc steelmaking process is classified as "hazardous" materials by tbe environmental regulation because of the existence of water leachable heavy metals such as Fe, Zn, Pb, and Cd. However, Fe and Zn among t the elements in the dust can be recovered to high valuable materials by applying a proper process. Therefore, in order to study t the possibility of recovery of iron from EAF dust, the effect oE carbon content and basicity, of synthesized EAF dust on the reduction rate of iron oxide was studied. Experimental results are as follows: TIle softening and melting temperature of the slag w was illcreased with increasing carbon addition amount [or carbon reduction eqUIvalent. At the carbon addition amount of 100% for carbon reduction equivalent and basicity of 1.7, reduction rate of $Fe_2O$ in the slag was the highest. The reaction order fur reduction of $Fe_2O$ by carbon was nearly first order.

잉크젯용 저온 Cu ink의 소성 특성을 향상 시키기 위해 소성 분위기롤 조절 하였다. 일반적으로 Cu는 산화가 잘되는 물질로 환원 분위기에서 소성이 이루어져야만 하기 때문에 acid, alcohol, aldehyde, ether와 같은 환원제를 소성시 사용하였다. 또한 1종의 환원제가 아닌 2종의 환원제롤 일정 비율로 섞음으로써 환원력를 조절하여 소성 품질을 향상 시킬 수 있었으며, 이러한 환원 분위기 조절을 통하여 300도 이하 저온에서 소성이 가능하였다. 또한 optical microscopy와 field emission scanning electron microscopy를 통해 막 품질과 미세조직의 치밀도를 확인하였고 배선 재료로써의 적용을 위해 resistance를 측정 비교하였다.

전기분해법을 이용하여 수용액 중의 질산성 질소의 환원거동에 대한 연구를 통하여 수용액중의 질산 함량을 제어하는 연구를 수행하였다. 촉매전극을 채택한 복극전해조에서 30분의 조업에 질산 100ppm 이하의 저농도 용액은 70%, 300ppm 이상의 고농도의 경우는 90%까지 질소를 용이하게 제거할 수 있었다. 초기 질소농도가 증가하면서 한계전류밀도도 크게 증가하였으며, pH가 감소할수록 환원전류가 증가하였다. 그리고 수용액의 pH는 질소 환원반응기구에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 판명되었으며, 산성에서는 질소형태로 중성 혹은 염기성에서는 암모니아 형태로 환원되는 것으로 추정된다.

As the consumption of galvanized steels in cans and automobiles and the quantity of scraps increase, the recycling problems of EAF dust become a important problem. Valuable metals such as Fe, Zn, Pb are of continued interest to metallurgists. To recover the valuable metal and to remove the toxicity of EAF dust, high temperature smelting process is or researching as a pilot scale. The Reduction kinetics of Zn in EAF dust is so important in a view of the economic consideration of the process. In this study, the kinetics behavior of Zn in EAF dust were measured as a point of application in high temperature smelting process. The rate control step in ZnO and franklinite is revealed to be chemical reaction on the reaction surface.

The electrochemical behaviors of copper-1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol(Cu-PAN) complex in acetonitrile (AN) solution have been investigated by the use of cyclic voltammetry, DC-polarography, controlled potential coulometry and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Cu-PAN complex in acetonitrile exhibit three reduction waves at -1.27 V, -1.64 V and -2.08 V vs. Ag/AgNO$_3$(AN). The numbers of electron involved in each reduction step was calculated with controlled potential coulometry, and reduction product was identified with UV-Vis spectrum. As the result, we proposed the reduction mechanism of the Cu-PAN complex in acetonitrile.

To be recycled iron and heat source in EAF, EAF dust and mill scale generated from steelmaking plant should be made to iron carbide. Behavior of reduction and carburization in EAF dust and mill scale is studied to get fundamental data. EAF dust and mill scale are carburized at $650^{\circ}C$ by 100% CO gas. The carbon content of iron carbide(about 9 wt,% C) is higher than that of cementite without free carbon. The 1.2 times of calculated carbon content is suitable for reduction of EAF dust. The reduction temperature is appropriate to $900^{\circ}C$ in EAF dust and $1000^{\circ}C$ in mill scale. The carburization rate of mill scale are faster than those of EAF dust. The composition of super iron carbide is almost $Fe_2$C.

EAF processed slag which contains about 20 ~ 35 weight percent FetO is poured to slag pot and cooled. If we recover Fe from molten slag by the reduction, we will improve steel yield rate and reduce slag quantity poured from the furnace. Usually, carbon is used as a reductant and slag foaming agent in the EAF process. In this experiment, after melt the metal in induction furnace and then add slag with carbon and Al dross powder as a reductant, we investigated the reduction of FetO from slag and change of Phophorus content. As the result, when we use Al dross as a reductant, recovery rate is two times more than carbon. Phosphorus pick up is less than 50ppm with reduction of EAF slag.

The electrochemical behaviors of copper-1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol [Cu(II)-TAN] complex in acetonitrile (AN) solution have been investigated by the use of polarography, controlled potential coulometry and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Cu(II)-TAN complex exhibit three reduction waves at -0.91 V, -1.34 V and -1.65 V vs. S.C.E. in acetonitrile solution containing 5.0 ${\times}\;10^{-3}$M tetraethylammonium perchlorate. Every reduction wave is diffusion controlled. The first reduction wave is considerably reversible and this process is attributed to the formation of anion radical. The second reduction process to the dianion is followed by a chemical reaction producing a complex of hydrazo complex. The third reduction process produce Cu(Hg) amalgam and amine compound.

The electrochemical reduction of iodine in non-aqueous media have been studied by polarography, chronopotentiometry, cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential coulometry at dropping mercury electrode and platinum, gold and amalgamated platium electrodes. In amphiprotic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and pyridine, iodine were reduced to iodide ions via one step reduction involving 1 electron and in aprotic solvents such as acetonitrile, dimethylformamide and dimethylsulfoxide via two step reduction involving all 3 electrons. The reductions of iodine give well defined polarograms at dropping mercury electrode and irreversible chronopotentiograms at platinum electrode, but less defined irreversible chronopotentiograms at gold and amalgamated platinum electrodes, those are all diffusion controlled. The diffusion coefficients of iodine in various solvents were estimated from the chronopotentiometric data and Sand equation.

Only a few studies have been conducted using reduced slag as recycled material. The reduced slag in electric furnace is produced as a by-product in making a steel and a few applications of the reduced slag as expensive additives and bonding materials or as the stabilized soils was reported. The purpose of this study is to present the feasibility of the reduced slag as recycled material, especially, in a field of civil engineering. In order to achieve the purpose experiments such as SEM and XRF analysis was conducted for the reduced slag in electric furnace. Based on the results various geotechnical experiments were conducted to know engineering properties of slag-soil mixtures. Weathered soils and clay are mixed with reduced slag for various ratios. As the ratio of reduced slag to weathered soil increases, the maximum dry unit weight of the mixture decreased with increasing optimum moisture content. The results indicates that there is no effect on a reduced slag by compaction efforts. The shear strengths of the weathered soil-slag mixtures are slightly higher or similar to those of weathered soils. The permeability of the weathered soil-slag mixtures is similar to that of silty or sandy soils. Therefore, it is possible to use the mixtures as embankment or backfill materials in the fields. The unconfined strength of the mixtures of reduced slag and clay is higher than that of clay and it tends to increase with the curing time. Therefore it can be used to improve the soft ground.
