In this study, we have investigated the geochemical behavior and fate of heavy metals in acid rock drainage (ARD). The ARD was collected from the area of the former Dongrae pyrophyllite mine. The Dongrae Creek waters were strongly acidic (pH : 2.3~4.2) and contained high concentrations of $SO_4$, Al, Fe, Mn, Pb, Cu, Zn, and Cd, due to the influence of ARD generated from weathering of pyrite-rich pyrophyllite ores. However, the water quality gradually improved as the water flows downstream. In view of the change of mole fractions of dissolved Fe, Al and Mn, the generated ARD was initially both Fe- and AA-ich but progressively evolved to more Al-rich toward the confluence with the uncontaminated Suyoung River. As the AR3 (pH 2.3) mixed with the uncontaminated waters (pH 6.5), the pH increased up to 4.2, which caused precipitation of $SO_4$-rich Fe hydroxysulfate as a red-colored, massive ferricrete precipitate throughout the Dongrae Creek. Accompanying the precipitation of ferricrete, the Dongrae Creek water progressively changed to more Al-rich toward downstream sites. At the mouth of the Dongrae Creek, it (pH 3.4) mixed with the Suyoung River (pH 6.9), where pH increased to 5.7, causing precipitation of Al hydroxysulfate (white precipitates). Neutralization of the ARD-contaminated waters in the laboratory caused the successive formation of Fe precipitates at pH<3.5 and Al precipitates at higher pH (4~6). Manganese compounds were precipitated at pH>6. The removal of trace metals was dependent on the precipitation of these compounds, which acted as sorbents. The pHs for 50% sorption ($pH_{50}$) in Fe-rich and Al-rich waters were respectively 3.2 and 4.5 for Pb, 4.5 and 5.8 for Cu, 5.2 and 7.4 for Cd, and 5.8 and 7.0 for Zn. This indicates that the trace metals were sorbed preferentially with increasing pH in the general order of Pb, Cu, Cd, and Zn and that the sorption of trace metals in Al-rich water occurred at higher pH than those in Fe-rich water. The results of this study demonstrated that the partitioning of trace metals in ARD is not only a function of pH, but also depends on the chemical composition of the water.

To investigate the concentrations and transport patterns of particulate metals in river suspended matters, eighteen samples were collected from a fixed station located in the upper part of the Keum River through one year, and analysed for major elements (AI, Fe, P, Mn) and trace elements (Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb, U). The contents of metals in suspended particulate matters (SPM) varied greatly with season and SPM load; maximum value in winter with low SPM level and minimum value in flood period and in spring Yangtze SPMs. The different trace metal level between rivers of Korea and China may be caused by the different geology of drainage basin(U) and by the different extent of anthropogenic input (Mn, Pb). Most of all particulate metals (>70%) except Mn, P and Cd were transported in the flood period with high water discharge and high suspended load. The magnitude of each transport phase (dissolved, non-detrital and detrital metals) was compared. The portions of labile metals (dissolved plus non-detrital metals) in the aquatic environment were in the range of 50%(Co) to 92%(Mn) of total metal transport and in the rank of Mn>Cd, U>Cu>Zn>Ni>Pb>Co.

Following the previous study on the nutritional quantity of Al, Fe, and their interrelationships with other trace metals, this study was conducted to determine the effect of supplementation of Cu and Mn to fish meal-diets on the growth of Japanese eel. The feeding experiment to determine Cu requirement was conducted using white fish meal-diets supplemented with 0, 5, 10, or 20 $\mu$g/g cupric sulfate, and that to determine Mn requirement was conducted by suppling the diet with 0, 10, 20, or 40 $\mu$g/g manganese sulfate. The results revealed that the fish on diet annexed with 5 $\mu$g/g of Cu were observed to have the best growth among these groups. In case of Mn, 20 $\mu$g/g of supplementary level promoted growth rate and 40 $\mu$g/g of diet resulted in the highest feed efficiency. On the other hand, the highest level of Cu (20 $\mu$g/g), and Mn (40 $\mu$g/g) supplementary diets did not expressed adverse effect on growth. These results indicated that the suitable Cu and Mn supplementary concentrations are 20 $\mu$g/g and 30 $\mu$g/g of formulated the white fish meal-diet respectively. The white fish meal had 1.6 $\mu$g/g of Cu and 6.1 $\mu$g/g of Mn.

The densification behavior of Al-20Si-5.5Fe-1.2Mg-0.5Mn powders was investigated through micro-structure analysis of sintered specimens. The specimens sintered in vacuum or in high purity (99.999%) nitrogen showed porous near-surface microstructures. The densification of near-surface part was enhanced by means of ultra-high purity (99.9999%) nitrogen atmosphere. The relationship between slow densification and oxide surfaces of Al alloy powders was discussed. And the effects of Mg addition, nitrogen gas, and humidity on densification were discussed. In addition, the rapid growth of primary Si crystals above the critical temperature was reported.

The present work was aimed to examine the variation of microstructure and mechanical properties by annealing($100{\sim}620^{\circ}C$, $2{\sim}8hr$) in A3003 Al alloy welded pipes. The A3003 Al alloy pipes with 34 mm in external diameter and 1.3 mm in thickness were manufactured by high frequency induction welding with the V shaped convergence angle $6.7^{\circ}$ and power input 50 kW. The tensile and yield strength decreased with increasing the annealing temperature remarkably, but elongation increased remarkably. Vickers hardness in welds decreased with increasing the annealing temperature remarkably. The primary intermetallic compound of $Al_{12}(Fe,\;Mn)_2Si$ was precipitated in welds as the same base metal. In a certain experimental condition, the welds line in A3003 alloys disappeared at $450^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr because of the same mechanical property and structure between welds and base metal.

Spinel, mullite, forsterite and cordierite composition powders were synthesized from Mg(NO3)2.6H2O, Al(NO3)3.9H2O and SiCl4-ethanol solution by spray pyrolysis method and the sinterability of these powders were investigated. The bulk density of spinel and mullite specimens sintered at 1,$700^{\circ}C$ for 1hr was 3.56g/㎤(99.5% relative density) and 3.16g/㎤(99.7% relative density), respectively. (Green compacts were made from powders prepared at 1,00$0^{\circ}C$). The bulk density of forsterite and cordierite specimens sintered at 1,480 and 1,40$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs were 3.217 and 2.155g/㎤, respectively. (Green compacts were made from powders prepared at 1,00$0^{\circ}C$). The constituent compositions of spinel and mullite specimens sintered at 1,$700^{\circ}C$ for 1hr were 27.5wt% MgO and 70.5wt% Al2O3, respectively. Vickers microhardness and fracture toughness of spinel sintered at the above condition were 13.7GPa and 2.6MN.m3/2, respectively, and room temperature bending strength, 425MPa, was nearly maintained even at the elevated temperature. In the case ofmullite specimens, those values were 13.5GPa, 2.2MN/m3/2 and 430MPa, respectively.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has been widely applied in polymers and packaging industries to produce synthetic fibers, films, drink bottles or food containers. Therefore, it has become one of the major plastic wastes. In this article, glycolysis known as one of the main methods in PET chemical recycling was investigated using a glycol to break down the polymer into a monomer. Glycolysis of PET and ethylene glycol was performed in a micro-tubing reactor under various conditions. The effect of glycolysis conditions on the product distribution was investigated at experimental conditions of the EG/PET ratio of 1~4, the reaction time of 15~90 min and the reaction temperature of $250{\sim}325^{\circ}C$ with Mn and Cu catalysts. The highest yield of bis (2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate monomer (BHET) was obtained as 89.46 wt% under the condition of the reaction temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ and the time of 30 min using 10 wt% $Cu/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst, with the PET and ethylene glycol ratio of 1 : 2.
