This paper evaluated the quality properties of Finex Water Granulated Slag fine aggregate as part of a study to recycle the Finex Water Granulated Slag generated in korea, and examined the availability as fine aggregate for concrete by comparing properties (properties of fresh concrete, mechanical properties of hardened concrete) of concrete using Finex Water Granulated Slag fine aggregate with properties of concrete using river sand as fine aggregate. From the results of this study, it was found that quality properties of concrete using finex water granulated slag as fine aggregate and concrete using river sand as fine aggregate are equivalent level.

Ecological architecture enables people to recycle and reuse architectural resources within the category of ecosystem and also to minimize the effect on environment in a whole process, including architectural planning, usage and exhaustion to use sustainable energies. Rammed earth wall construction method utilized in EcoCenter located in Crystalwaters ecological village in Austrailia is a good example, which maximizes its advantages and also covers its limits to use soil and wood as structural resources. In a case of wood, they used non-treated timber to minimize environmental load and utilized used materials in openings. In the roofs, aluminum coated steel which is plated with zinc collects rain effectively even though it is not regenerable. Nontoxic finishes and insulation in floor and ceiling with used papers are able to minimize its environmental load. Solar energy system applied in EcoCenter enables them to market extra energy with electricity companies as well as support needs of its own buildings to utilize photovoltaic panel system with PV panels. Passive solar system is planned effectively in heating and cooling to apply regenerative walls in a use of rammed earth wall construction and natural ventilation systems through openings.

In this study, the thermal degradation process has been investigated at various reaction temperature$(350{\sim}400^{\circ}C)$ and times$(30{\sim}120\;min)$ in order to recycle waste plastic films as solid state wax. Waste plastic films were easily melted by adding a small amount of waxes. The effects of wax addition and nitrogen flow rate on their thermal degradation properties were investigated. FT-IR, GPC and viscometer were used to analyze properties of the solid wax including the structure, molicular weight distribution and melt viscosity. The average molecular weight of solid wax was decreased with increasing the reaction time, temperature and amount of wax added, Also, the viscosity of solid wax decreased with increasing the stirring speed at a constant reaction temperature and time, and its viscosity got close to zero above $390^{\circ}C$.

This paper presents the development of standardized modules and an integrated program which will be used for social environmental education. The study objectives are to develop modules which are based on various environmental topics, to relate the regional environmental topics to the educational modules and program, and to include the demand of students in the modules and program. Literature and questionary surveys, as well as, module development method were utilized as research tools. The titles of developed modules are “The Green Planet Earth, “Unexpected Resources: Save Resources and Recycle”, “Water as the Mother of All Lives”, “The Blue Sky with Clean Air”, and “Soil as the Home of All Living and Non-living Things”. It is hoped that the developed modules and program are utilized as course materials and curriculum for social environmental education in various educational institutes. The study results will be materialized as multimedia in near future.

Nightsoil and brewery sludges usually contain a high concentration of organic matters. A composting study using reactors was carried out for the recycle of brewery wastewater sludge and nightsoil treatment sludge, which have been landfilled. A good composting process was obtained with a sludge mixing ratio of 1:1 and injual pH had no effect on temperature increase related to microbial activity. The injtial C/N ratio at approximarely 15 decreased to 13 without the increase in pH.. It was found that agitation of one time a week provided the most effective composting process.

Recycle methodology was researched on the HIPS(High Impact Poly Styrene) materials which are used in modern industry widely, For the various mixing ratio between virgin pellets of HIPS and recycled ones, tensile strength and shrinkage ratio were analyzed with injection molding experiments and numerical simulations. In addition, the deviations of dimensional accuracy were observed in accordance with various molding conditions. Molding conditions such as mold and melt temperature were changed by 3 steps. Mixing ratio between virgin pellets of HIPS and recycled ones were under controlled with 15%, 30% and 45%.

Recycling technology of aluminum foil scraps into aluminum flake powder by ball milling in dry or wet conditions was studied. Aluminum foil were laminated each other, elongated through microforging by the falling balls, fragmented into small foils and then changed into flake powder during ball milling. It is also possible to recycle foil scraps with thickness less than $60\mu\textrm{m}$ into aluminum paste by wet ball milling. As initial foil thickness decreases, foil is easily milled to flake powder by wet milling in mineral spirits. the appearance and the opaque character of glass painted with aluminum paste obtained by wet milling of foils are similar to those of aluminum paste made by ball milling of gas atomized powder.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of shock absorption of recycled bumper applied to the standard of shock absorption for newly-developed bumper. For the experiment, two different passenger cars which have different types of bumper were selected. In this work, two kinds of reused bumpers were tested in accordance with an automotive safety regulation to verify exterior bumpers' impact energy absorption performance. The performance results of reused bumper test show that the shock absorption performance indicated the almost same performance and similar characteristics of 2.5 miles bumper test compared to the absorption performance of new bumper of test vehicles.

Drainage water in lowland paddy fields is quantitatively influenced recycle and/or repeated irrigation by irrigation facilities, i.e. pumps, check gates, small reservoirs and so on. In those drainage channels, nutrients accumulation and increasing organic matters are considered to be occurred, and water quality would be degraded not only environmental aspect but irrigation purpose. In general, Total Nitrogen (T-N) is interested water quality index in irrigation water, because high nitrogen concentration sometimes caused decreasing rice production by excess growth and fallen or degrading quality of taste, then, farmers would like to clear water less than 1mg/L of T-N concentration. In drainage channel, it is known that the nitrogen concentration change is influenced by physical, chemical and biological properties, i.e, stream or river bed condition, water temperature, other water quality index, and plant cover condition. In this study, discharge data (velocity and level) in a drainage channel was monitored by an Acoustic Doppler system and water quality was sampled at same time in 2011. So those data was analyzed by multi regression model to realize hydrological and environmental factors to influence with nitrogen concentration. The results showed the difference tendency between irrigation and non-irrigation period, and those influenced factors would be considered in water quality model developing in future.

Two-stage membrane bioreactor using submerged hollow fiber membrane was applied in laboratory scale to treat nitrogen and phosphorus of domestic wastewater. Alum as the flocculant and adsorbent was added into the anaerobic basin of two-stage membrane bioreactor and mixed liquid of aerabic basin was recycled to the anaerobic basin for the purpose of nitrogen removal. Experiment was carried out to find removal efficient of phosphorous and nitrogen components in the mixed liquid, and the stability of the permeate flux and pressure of two-stage membrane bioreactor. In case of alum was added as the flocculant and adsorbent into the anaerobic basin, soluble phosphorus removal efficient was relatively higher and total permeate resistance(Rtot) was more increased out nitrogen removal efficient was lower as the result of lack of alkalinity and insufficient nitrification process than the case of alum was not added.
