Iron coated media (activated carbon, sand and starfish) were prepared at pH 4 and applied for the treatment of landfill leachate containing organic compounds and soluble metal ions such as $Zn^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Mn^{2+}$ in batch and column experiment. The amount of iron coated in media was analyzed with EPA 3050B method. The removal efficiency of metal ions and phenol was compared with iron coated media. The amount of iron coated in Fe-AC and ICS(iron coated sand) were 1,612 mg/kg and 1,609 mg/kg, respectively, while it was higher with 1,768 mg/kg in ICSF(iron coated starfish). The result of batch study represent the highest removal efficiency in the treatment of wastewater using iron coated starfish. In column study, the removal efficiency of phenol and metal ions was higher in multi-layered system of ICS, Fe-AC and ICSF compared to single layered system. Breakthrough time in the effluent was relatively enhanced for $Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ in multi-layered system while the removal efficiency of $Mn^{2+}$ were not varied much. Therefore, multi-layered system was identified as the better system for the treatment of wastewater containing of metal ions and organic compound.

Fe-impregnated activated carbon(Fe-AC) was prepared by Fe(III) loading on activated carbon(AC) in various preparation pH. In order to evaluate the stability of Fe-AC, dissolution of iron from Fe-AC in acidic conditions was measured. In addition, batch experiments were conducted to monitor the removal efficiency of copper by Fe-AC. Results of stability test for Fe-AC showed that the amount of extracted iron increased with contact time but decreased with increasing solution pH. The dissolved amount of iron gradually increased at solution pH 2 and finally 13% of the total iron loaded on activated carbon was extracted after 12 hr. However dissolution of iron was negligible over solution pH 3. Removal of Cu(II) by Fe-AC was greatly affected by solution pH and was decreased as solution pH increased as well as initial Cu(II) concentration decreased. Surface complexation modeling was performed by considering inner-sphere complexation reaction and using the diffuse layer model with MINTEQA2 program.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of barley straw application on the eluviation of components in submerged paddy soil percolated. The chemical components of soil, percolated water and humus fraction were as follows. $NH{^+}_4$-N in percolated water and soil, $NO{^-}_3$- N in soil were not detected after prime tillering stage by absorption of rice plant. Phosphate was not affected by the application but a little amount was eluviated through a whole period. Eluviation phase of $Ca^{{+}{+}}$ was similar to $Mg^{{+}{+}}$ and the changes of $K^+$, $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ were almost same patterns, whereas the amount of these eluviated elements in plot applied was higher than non-applied. In the plot applied, eluviation of $SO{^{-2}}_4$ was low during the tillering stage but high after heading stage, whereas the whole amount of eluviation was high during the tillering stage. Eluviation of iron in the plot applied was increased rapidly. Humus type was almost same as type B in the plot applied or not after harvest, and contents of humic acid was about 60 percent.

Treatment options for partially edentulous patients are fixed partial denture, removable partial denture and implant supported fixed partial denture. In case of a patient with a few remaining teeth, removable partial denture and implant supported fixed prosthesis are available. For implant fixed prothesis, enough implant fixtures are required and the patient's general condition, local factors and economic status must be considered. When the condition of the abutments and the residual ridge is favorable and the prosthesis is well designed, removable partial denture can be an option. In removable partial denture, the bilateral support is important. If the teeth remain unilateral, harmful stress is put on the abutments by the fulcrum line. In this situation, strategic implantation and implant-retained or assisted removable partial denture is beneficial to the retention and support of the denture. And this can be cost-effective, functional and esthetic choice of treatment. This article describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of Maxillary Kennedy class I partially edentulous patients. In these two cases, the patients had a small number of teeth and they were restored by the combination of a removable partial denture and dental implants.

A conventional approach for the treatment of long-span edentulous areas is the use of removable dentures. However, placing implants in these areas results in superior functional outcomes by increasing the stability, support, and resistance of the prostheses and improving the masticatory efficiency. Treatment modalities utilizing implants can be further classified into either removable or fixed-type prostheses. Several factors such as the amount of alveolar bone resorption, inter-arch relationship, patient preferences, and socioeconomic status should be considered when determining the appropriate treatment approach. Monolithic zirconia has been considered a suitable material for implant-supported fixed dental prosthesis, because of the drastic improvement in its mechanical properties. It exhibits fewer incidences of fracture and chipping of the prostheses, and has greater bulk of material than metal-ceramic crowns and zirconia-veneered ceramics. Moreover, highly translucent monolithic zirconia is also available in the market, and its application is gradually increasing for anterior tooth rehabilitation. The present report describes a patient who underwent full-mouth rehabilitation with fixed dental prostheses (eight upper and three lower implant placements). All teeth, except bilateral mandibular canines and left mandibular first and second premolars, were extracted after the diagnosis of generalized chronic moderate-to-advanced periodontitis of the remaining teeth. The patient reported satisfactory esthetic and functional outcomes during the one-year follow-up visit.

This study investigated the dechlorination mechanisms of TCE by Fe(II) associated with cement. Batch slurry experiments were peformed to investigate the behaviors of selected ions; Fe(II), Fe(III), $Ca^{2+}$, $SO_4^{2-}$ in cement/Fe(II) system. The kinetic experiments of TCE in cement/Fe(II) systems showed that injected Fe(II) was mostly sorbed on cement within 0.5 day and 90% of injected 200 mM sulfate was sorbed on cement within 0.5 day when $[TCE]_0$ = 0.25 mM and $[Fe(II)]_0$ = 200 mM. The kinetic experiments of TCE in hematite/CaO/Fe((II) systems were conducted for simulation of cement/Fe(II) system. Calcium oxide that is one of the major components in cement hydration reactions or has a reactivity in limited conditions. Hematite assumed the ferric iron oxide component of cement. The reactivities observed in hematite/CaO/Fe(II) system were comparable to those reported for cement/Fe(II) systems containing similar molar amounts of Fe(II). The behavior of Fe(II) and $SO_4^{2-}$ sorbed on solid phase at an early stage of reaction in hematite/CaO/Fe(II) system was similar to that of cement/Fe(II) system. Ferric ion was released from hematite at an early period of reaction at low pH. The experimental evidence of kinetic test using hematite/CaO/Fe(II) system implies that the reactive reductant is a mixed-valent Fe(II)-Fe(III) mineral, which may be similar to green rust. Fe(II) sorbed on cement can be converted to new mineral phase having a reactivity such as Fe(II)-Fe(III) (hydr)oxides in cement/Fe(II) systems.

In order to investigate the fate of nitrogen in the paddy soil, Suchang, Hwasoon and Susan soil which have different properties, were treated with several nitrogen fertilizers such as ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, urea and SCU (sulfur-coated urea), and incubated under water-logged condition in $30^{\circ}C$ incubator. $NH_4-N$, $NO_3-N$, $Fe^{++}$ and pH in soil and stagnant water, were determined at 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 days after incubation. The obtained results were summarized as follows: 1. The effect of rising temperature was increased in order of Hwasoon>Suchang>Susan and the effect of air drying soil was risen in order of Susan>Hwasoon>Suchang, while the rate of ammonication was in order of Susan>Suchang>Hwasoon. 2. The changes of $NH_4-N$ in stagnant water was dependent upon the nitrogen concentration of $NH_4Cl$ and $(NH_4)SO_4$ plat was high and decreased after 30 days incubation, but increased after 40 days and then decreased again. In contrast with the above, $NH_4-N$ concentration of urea and SCU plot was low but the change showed slightly through the incubation period. 3. Accumulation of $NH_4-N$ in the oxidative layer of the $NH_4Cl$ and $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ plot was higher than that of urea and SCU plot and $NH_4-N$ content was decreased with the incubation period. The change of $NH_4-N$ in the reductive layer showed the same pattern. 4. The changes of $NO_3-N$ in the stagnant water were different according to soil properties and nitrogen fertilizer. $NO_3-N$ concentration in stagnant water of urea and SCU plot was higher than in the $NH_4-Cl$ $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ plot and nearly disappeared after 30 to 40 days incubation. 5. The $NO_3-N$ concentration in the oxidative layer of soil was higher than reductive layer. The pattern of change was different in accordance with soil properties and nitrogen fertilizers. In general, nitrification in urea and SCU plot was more increased than $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ plot. In reductive layer, the concentration of $NO_3-N$ was very low until 30 days incubation and thereafter increased slightly. 6. Upon the concentration of $NH_4-N$ and $NO_3-N$ in stagnant water and soil, it was assumed that denitification of urea and SCU plot was higher than $NH_4Cl$ and $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ plot and denitrified nitrogen in incubation period was above 50%.

While sedimentological researches on Western coastal tidal flats of Korea have been much pelformed previously, mineralogical and biogeochemical studies are beginning to be studied. The objectives of this study were to investigate mineralogical characteritics of the inter-tidal flat sediments and to explore phase transformation of iron(oxyhydr)oxides and biomineralization by metal-reducing bacteria enriched from the inter-tidal flat sediments from Muan, Jeollanam-do, Korea. Inter-tidal flat sediment samples were collected in Chungkye-myun and Haeje-myun, Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do. Particle size analyses were performed using the pipette method and sedimentation method. The separates including sand, silt and clay fractions were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray diffiaction (XRD). After enriching the metal-.educing bacteria from the into,-tidal flat sediments, the bacteria were used to study phase transformation of the synthesized iron (oxyhydr)oxides and iron biomineralization using lactate or glucose as the electron donors and Fe(III)-containing iron oxides as the electron accepters. Mineralogical studies showed that the sediments of tidal flats in Chung]rye-myun and Haeje-myun consist of quartz, plagioclase, microcline, biotite, kaolinite and illite. Biogeochemical researches showed that the metal-reducing bacteria enriched from the inter-tidal flat sediments reduced reddish brown akaganeite and mineralized nanometer-sized black magnetite. The bacteria also reduced the reddish brown ferrihydrite into black amorphous phases and reduced the yellowish goethite into greenish with formation of nm-sized phases. These results indicate that microbial Fe(III) reduction may play one of important roles in iron and carbon biogeochemistry as well as iron biomineralization in subsurface environments.

This paper mainly analyzes the records titled 'Shijujil(施主秩)' from the Bokjangs of each of the Rocana and Shakyamuni statues enshrined as wooden seated Vairocana Buddha Triadcomposed of Vairocana(center), Rocana(right), and Shakyamuni(left) at the Daeungjeon Hall of Hwaeomsa Temple in Gurye. The Shijujil from the Shakyamuni statue was recovered through Bokjang investigation in September 2015 and has been kept in the museum of Hwaeomsa as an undisclosed relic. After the discovery of the Shijujil from the Rocana statue through an Bokjang investigation in July 2020, both of the Shijujils were only officially released through the special exhibition 'Grand Hwaeomsa Temple in Jirisan Mountain' in September 2021. Existing documents recording on the creation of Buddha statues in the 17th century are in the form of sheets or rolls. However, the Shijujils take the form of simple stitched booklets. The Shijujil from Rocana consists of 19 chapters and 38 pages in one book, and the Shijujil from Shakyamuni consists of 11 chapters and 22 pages in one book. The contents of the Shijujils consist of the purpose of the Buddha statue creation, the creation date, the year and place of enshrining, the names of the statues, the people in charge and their roles, the sculptors, the list of items donated, and the list of the contributors. In addition, the list of monks who were staying at Hwaeomsa Temple at that time are also recorded, so the Shijujil is like a time capsule that tells the situation of Hwaeomsa Temple about 400 years ago. According to the records of the Shijujils and the Writing on the wooden pedestal of Rocana, the Vairocana Triad began to be in March 1634(12th year of King Injo) and was completed in August of that year, and was enshrined in the Daeungjeon Hall in the fall of the following year. It is very important to confirm that the Vairocana Buddha Triad of Hwaeomsa was created in 1634. Since studies on the reconstruction of Hwaeomsa Temple in the 17th century and the roles of Byeokam Gakseong have been mainly based on 『湖南道求禮縣智異山大華嚴寺事蹟』 written by monk Haean in 1636, it has been estimated that the wooden seated Vairocana Buddha Triad was created in 1636. However, it is now known that the Virocana Buddha Triad was created in 1634. The Shijujils are also a good source of information about Byeokam Gakseong who played a pivotal roles in the reconstruction projects of Hwaeomsa Temple in the 17th century. He played leading roles in rebuilding the East Five-story Stone Pagoda(1630), in creating the wooden seated Vairocana Buddha Triad(1634), and in producing the Yeongsanhoe Gwaebul(1653, Hanging Scroll Painting depicting the Shakyamuni preaching). It is also very important that the Shijujils are records that can reveal the relationship between Byeokam Gakseong and royal family of Joseon Dynasty in the 17th century. The Shijujils from Rocana and Shakyamuni are the first documents ever discovered in which the names of royal family members, such as Uichanggun(Gwang Lee, son of King Seonjo), Ikseong Shin(son-in-law of King Seonjo), and Crown Prince Sohyeon(son of King Injo) are recorded in detail in relation to the production of Buddha statues. The Shijujils from Rocana and Shakyamuni contain specific information about the production of the wooden seated Vairocana Buddha Triad in the 17th century, such as the year of production of the Buddha statues, the role of Byeokam Gakseong, and the relationship between Byeokam Gakseong and the royal family, so it is of great value not only for art history but also for historical studies of Hwaeomsa Temple.
