The potential use of modified clays in the adsorption of vapor phase benzene and toluene was investigated. The modified clays OC-CPC, IOC, and Al-PILC were prepared for comparative purposes and were characterized using infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and X-ray diffraction. It was confirmed the intercalation of the aluminium pillar in IOC and Al-PILC, as well as the introduction of cetylpyridinium. The adsorption studies showed a great affinity of benzene and toluene for OC-CPC due to the hydrophobic character that resulted and also to the increase in the interlaminar distance. IOC showed a lower affinity for the benzene and toluene, followed by Al-PILC. Natual clay had no affinity for benzene and toluene due to its hydrophilic nature. Clay materials having a laminar structure can be chemically modified, changing their physiochemical characteristics, such as interlaminar distance, surface area, pore size, and chemical affinity. In this study, it was focused on obtaining modified clays to be used for the adsorption of volatile organic chemicals.

Immobilization isotherms for methyl tort-buty1 ether (MTBE) in sodium dodecy1 sulfate(SDS) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) were investigated for application to micellar enhanced remediation. Headspace solid-phase microextraction was used to analyze immobilization isotherms. Maximum partitioning coefficients of MTBE were 48 L/mol and 9 L/mol for SDS and CPC, respectively, The values decreased gradually as the MTBE mole fraction in the micelles increased.

Solubilization isotherms for methyl tort-butyl ether (MTBE) in sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS), dowfax 8390, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) were investigated for application to micellar enhanced remediation. Dowfax 8390 showed maximum extent of solubilization among surfactants tested in this study. It seems that sulfate group in anionic surfactants playes a important role in solublization of MTBE. Chemical shiftes in NMR of surfactant and MTBE supports this point.

Micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration was investigated to remediate groundwater contaminated with chromate using a cationic surfactant, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC). Removal of chromate was expressed as a function of molar ratio of CPC to chromate. With 10 molar ratio of CPC, removal efficiency of chromate was reached to over 99%. The rejection of CPC was 90% at 1 molar ratio, gradually increased as the molar ratio increased.

Spectrophotometric determination of rare earth elements with MTB and the composition ratio were investigated in the presence of surfactants of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), Triton X-100, dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTMAB) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB) at pH 6.5. The colour development between MTB and rare earths in the presence of cationic surfactants was very stable and more sensitive than that in the absence of surfactants. The largest absorbance increase was provided by CPC, which was therefore chosen for determination of rare earth elements. REE-MTB-CPC complex has absorption maxima at 650 nm and obeys the Beer's law in the range of 0∼100 ng/ml. Molar absorptivity is $6.6{\sim}9.4{\times}10^4\;mol^{-1}l\;cm^{-1}$.

A strain (designated SK3l) which produces an excellent adsorption substance was isolated from soil samples and identified as Bacillus specied. The major adsorption substance (biosorbent SK3l) produced by Bacillus sp. SK31 was purified by ethanol precipitation and cetylpyridinium (CPC) precipitation. The adsorption charactics of zinc and lead ions on bioadsorbent SK3l were investigated. The equilibrium isotherms showed that bioadsorbent SK3l took up zinc and lead from aqueous solutions to the extent of about 52 mg/g and 112 mg/g. respectively. The culture conditions at the flask level of Bacillus sp. SK3l were investigated for the production of polysaccharide bioadsorbent, SK3l. The optimum pH and temperature for sorbent production were 7.5 and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. The important carbon and nitrogen sources for sorbent formation were glucose and ammonium nitrate, respectively. In the optimized medium, sorbent production was improved three folds in comparison with the basal medium. In the jar fermenter, the highest sorbent production was obtained at 60 h cu1tivation time and the amount of biosorbent SK3l at that time was 9.2 g/$m\ell$.

In this study, chromate and cetylperidinium chloride (CPC) removal from artificial wastewater was monitored by using micellar enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) and activated carbon fibre (ACF) adsorption hybrid processes. For the efficient chromate removal, molar concentration of the CPC should be five times that of chromate and it should be at least one critical micelle concentration (CMC). The MEUF was found to be effective in the chromate removal while ACF in the CPC adsorption to produce chromate and CPC free effluents. The chromate and CPC removal was 99.8% from MEUF-ACF process. Effluent chromate concentration was exponentially correlated with molar ratio of CPC to chromate and pH.

The effect of the presence of dissolved organic matters(DOM) on the binding of phenanthrene to cetylpyridinium chloride(CPC) coated sand was investigated. The distribution coefficient of phenanthrene increased with increase of sufactant coverage, and decreased with the presence of dissolved organic matters except for the 1.600mg/g coverage case. Both Aldrich humic acid and extracted dissolved organic matter showed the similar tendency. For the quantification of the overall distribution coefficient, this study presented mass distribution model and estimated the sorption equilibrium coefficients of hydrophobic organic compounds(HOCs) in multi system. The suggested model combined a series of sorption equilibrium relationships including the adsorption of DOMs on sorbents, the binding between HOCs and DOMs, and the sorption of HOCs on sorbents with or without DOMs.

Solubilization isotherms of 1-chlorobenzene (MCB) and 1, 2-dichlorobenzene (DCB) were investigated in ionic surfactant solutions such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), and dedecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DMAC). The solubilization extent of DCB was much higher than that of MCB because of the main driving force of solubilization Is hydrophobic interactions between chlorobenzenes and hydrophobic interior of ionic micelles and DCB is more hydrophobic than MCB. CPC showed highest solubilization capacity because of longest hydrophobic tails. Simultaneous solubilization of MCB and DCB decreased slightly the extent solubilization of both MCB and DCB because the solubilization locus in the micelles is same.

Au fine particle dispersed TiO2 film was prepared on silica glass substrate by sol-gel dip and firing process. The films were fabricated from the system of titanium tetraisoproxie-EtOh-HCl_H2O-hydrogen tetrachloroaurate(III) tetrahydrate. The conditions for the formation of the clear solution and dissolving high concentration of Au compound were examined. And a photoreduction process was adopted to control the size of gold metal particles. Phase evolution of matrix TiO2 and variation of Au particle with UV irradiation were investigated by XRDA, SEM, TEM and UV-visible spectrophotometer. And the effect of CPCl(Cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate) as a dispersion agent was evaluated.
