In order to evaluate the applicability of steel mill slag as a AMD (Acid Mine Drainage) neutralizer and to compare capacity of slag with that of limestone lab scale experiments were conducted. The fixed treatment experiments of AMD with slag and limestone separately for 24 hours under the stagnant condition showed that slag has higher capacity of pH increase and removal of Fe. Al and other trace elements. During the 10 days continuous step experiment the pH has been maintained and any decrease in the removal capacity of Fe and Al has not bun observed. In the trace element removal experiment slag showed higher capacity for removal of Ni, Co. Cu and Zn than limestone. The removal of trace element was more effective in AMD than in distilled water that the pH was adjusted to the same level of AMD (synthetic acid solution). It means that Fe and Al in AMD adsorbed trace elements during or after precipitation as oxide forms. In the size effect experiment, the slag of the smaller size with larger specific surface area exhibited higher capacity of pH increase and removal efficiencies of Fe. Al and other trace elements.

The experimental results of the characteristics of aluminum based and ferric based coagulants for the Nakdong River water showed that the main hydrolysis species contained in alum and $FeCl_3$ are monomeric species of 98% and 93.3%, respectively. The PACl of r=1.2 produced by the addition of base contained 31.2% of polymeric Al species and the PACl of r=2.2 contained 85.0% of polymeric Al species, as showing more polymeric Al species with increasing r value. Coagulation tests using Al(III) and Fe(III) salts coagulants for the Nakdong River water showed that the coagulation effectiveness of turbidity and organic matter was high in the order of $FeCl_3$ > PACl (r=2.2) > PACl (r=1.2) > alum. $FeCl_3$ has showed better flocculation efficiency than Al(III) salts coagulants. In addition, in case of Al(III) coagulants, the Al(III) coagulants of higher basicity, which contained more polymeric Al species, resulted in better coagulation efficiency for both turbidity and organic matter removed. The optimum pH range for all of the coagulants investigated was around pH 7.0 under the experimental pH range of 4.0~9.5. Especially, the highest basicity PACl (r=2.2) and $FeCl_3$ were considered as more appropriate coagulants for the removal of turbidity in the case of raw water exhibiting higher pH.

The olivine structured $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ material was prepared by solid state method, and was analyzed by x-ray diffractometer (XRD), superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The crystal structure of $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ was determined to be orthorhombic (space group: Pnma) by Rietveld refinement method. The value of N$\acute{e}$el temperature ($T_N$) for $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ was determined 50 K. The temperature dependence of the magnetization curves showed magnetic phase transition from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic at $T_N$ by SQUID measurement. M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of $LiFe_{0.9}Mn_{0.1}PO_4$ showed 2 absorption lines at temperatures above $T_N$ and showed asymmetric 8 absorption lines at temperatures below $T_N$. These spectra occurred due to the magnetic dipole and electric quardrupole interaction caused by strong crystalline field at asymmetric $FeO_6$ octahedral sites.

In order to investigate the effects of phosphorus and iron levels in the diets containing fish meal as only protein source on the growth, feed conversion, body composition and blood characteristics of juvenile Korean rockfish, either graded monobasic potassium phosphate (MPP) of 1% (MPP-1), 2% (MPP-2), 3% (MPP-3) and 4% (MPP-4), or Fe-citrate (FC) of 0.022% (FC-1), 0.044% (FC-2), 0.066% (FC-3) and 0.088% (FC-4) was added to fish meal-based diet (MMP-0 or FC-0), respectively. Duplicate groups of 40 fish weighing 7g were fed the diets for 21 weeks. Weight gain, feed efficiency and nutrient retention of fish fed diets with different MPP levels were not significantly different (P>0.05). Lipid content of whole body decreased with an increase in dietary MMP (P<0.05). No significant differences were found in the Ht, Hb, total protein, or total glucose in serum among diets containing different MMP levels (P>0.05). Weight gain of fish fed the FC-0, FC-1 adn FC-3 diets was significantly higher than that of FC-4 diet (P>0.05), whereas feed efficiency, nutrient retention, hematological values (Ht, Hb, total protein, and total glucose), and whole body composition were not affected by dietary FC levels (P>0.05). The present results revealed that phosphate or iron supplementation to the diet containing 65% fish meal for juvenile Koran rockfish was not necessary.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the decolorization and reduced sludge of real textile wastewater by coagulation process. The aim of the study was to verify the relation between decolorization and coagulants of real textile wastewater treatment processes. Coagulation processes were performed using $FeCl_3$, $FeSO_4$, and $Al_2(SO_4)_3$. Real textile wastewater has a mean concentration for BOD, COD, pH, color to be 800 mg/L, 600 mg/L, 9.7, and 102, respectively. From the experimental results, it was shown that the $FeCl_3$ exhibited higher decolorization at the operating conditions 335~2000 mg/L of coagulants and 500 mg/L NaOH dosage. The efficiency of color removal depended on the wastewater pH and concentration of coagulants.

The magneto-optical Kerr effect due to the (Fe,Co)/(Pd,Pt,Cu,Ag) multilayer film is calculated considering of multiple reflection effect, and the calculated Kerr spectrum is compared to the reported experimental value. In case of Co/Pd, the reliance of composition and the variable tendency of magneto-optical Kerr rotation angle for Co thickness fully coresponds to experimantal and theoretical value. The theoretical Kerr spectrum of Fe/Cu and Fe/Ag multilayer films show the peaks near the Cu and Ag optical ansorption band in accordance with the experiment. But in case of Co/Pt, the increase tendency of Kerr rofation with decreasing wavelength reported by experiments could not be explained by the optical multiple interference. This difference of theoretical and experimental Kerr spectrum of Co/Pt film might be related with the change of electronic structure of Co and/or Pt from their bulk state.

자연계에서는 오염물질이 단일물질로 존재하기보다는 혼합물로 존재하는 것이 대부분이다. 본 연구에서는 지하수 오염물질 chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon(CAH)들 중 trichloroethylene(TCE), vinyl chloride(VC)에 대해서 Fe$^{\circ}$와 함께 미생물, 활성탄을 이용하여 단일물질 및 혼합물질상태에서 그 분해특성을 살펴보았다. 실험은 120$m\ell$ serum bottle을 이용하여 단일물질 및 혼합물질상태에서 그 분해특성을 살펴보았다. 실험은 120$m\ell$ serum bottle을 이용하였고 headspace 50${\mu}\ell$를 GC에 주입하여 각 오염물질 농도를 분석하였으며, Fe$^{\circ}$, Fe$^{\circ}$+ cell, Fe$^{\circ}$+ 활성탄 3가지 조건에서 TCE (25${\mu}\ell$)가 단일화합물 또는 VC(10$\mu\textrm{m}$)와 혼합화학물로 존재시 분해특성을 조사하였다. 단일화합물로 존재시 2시간후 TCE농도 측정 결과 Fe$^{\circ}$만을 이용하였을 때보다 활성탄, Cell을 함께 이용하였을 경우 그 분해율이 각각 1.6배, 1.8배 높게 나타났다. 그러나, VC와 혼화합물로 존재시 TCE 분해율은 단일 화합물로 존재시와 비교 Fe$^{\circ}$, Fe$^{\circ}$+ 활성탄, Fe$^{\circ}$+ cell 조건에서 각각 63%, 28%, 5%로 나타났다. VC는 Fe$^{\circ}$만으로는 분해가 되지 않았지만 cell에 의해 완전분해 되었으며, 함께 존재시 TC는 Fe$^{\circ}$만으로는 분해가 되지 않았지만 cell에 의해 완전분해 되었으며, 함께 존재시 TCE분해에 저해작용을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

The inside wall of a coal gasifier is lined with refractory, and the corrosion of the refractory is an important factor affecting the refractory lifetime and the replacement period. This paper examines the changes in microstructure of a chromia refractory due to chemical reactions with slag having varying amounts of $Fe_2O_3$. Slag samples were prepared by adding $Fe_2O_3$ to KIDECO slag, and static corrosion experiments were carried out at $1550^{\circ}C$. The layer of $(Fe,Cr)_3O_4$ formation and the depth of Fe depletion in the infiltrating slag were determined. In addition, FactSage equilibrium calculations were carried out in order to determine the conditions of formation, and to compare with the experimental observations. In the sample exposed to KIDECO slag, which has about 10 wt% $Fe_2O_3$, the formation of $(Fe,Cr)_3O_4$ was not observed. As the $Fe_2O_3$ concentration in slag increased, $(Fe,Cr)_3O_4$ formation and Fe depletion depth increased. Increasing $Fe_2O_3$ concentration also made the slag/refractory interface indistinguishable. Equilibrium calculations predicted that higher $Fe_2O_3$ concentrations favor chromite formation at gasification temperatures. The chromite formation was most favorable when the amount of $Cr_2O_3$ was limited, as in the case of dissolved $Cr_2O_3$ in slag. When the concentration of $Fe_2O_3$ in slag was less than 20%, the formation of chromite was least favorable in the system with equal amounts of slag and refractory.

In order to recover the metallic copper powder from the mine-waste rock, heap bioleaching, Fe removal and electrowinning experiments were carried out. The results of heap leaching with the mine-waste rock sample containing 0.034% Cu showed that, the leaching rate of Cu were 61% and 62% in the bacteria leaching and sulfuric acid leaching solution, respectively. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) and calcium hydroxide ($Ca(OH)_2$) were applied to effectively remov Fe from the heap leaching solution, and then $H_2O_2$ was selected for the most effective removing Fe agent. In order to prepare the electrolytic solution, $H_2O_2$ were again treated in the heap leaching, and Fe removal rates were 99% and 60%, whereas Cu removal rates were 5% and 7% in the bacteria and sulfuric acid leaching solutions, respectively. After electrowinning was examined in these leaching solution, the recovery rates of Cu were obtained 98% in bacteria and obtained 76% in the sulfuric leaching solution. The dendritic form of metallic copper powder was recovered in both leaching solutions.

In this study we investigated and tried to understand problems monitored in an experiment on reactivity of metals in chemistry I. Three problems were discussed. First, the reason that aluminium plate does not react with other metal ions such as zinc, iron and copper was studied and the way to overcome this problem was suggested. Second, the reason that the bubbles were generated when FeS$O_4$(aq) and Zn(s) react was discussed. Third, the precipitates which appeared in the reaction of FeS$O_4$(aq) and Zn(s) were identified. Through reference study and experimental investigation, we could reach the following results. First, aluminium could not react with other metal ions due to the surface oxide layer that is formed very fast and prevents aluminium from reacting with metal ions in solution. This problem could be overcome by allowing a competing reaction of acid and aluminium during the reaction of aluminium and metal ions. Second, the observed bubbles were identified to be hydrogen gas, produced by the reaction between metals and hydronium ion in the solution. Third, black precipitates that were produced on the surface of zinc plate and exhibited magnetic property were characterized to be $Fe_3O_4$(s), and brown precipitates that were produced in the solution phase were to be $Fe_2O_3$(s) by the analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectra.
