A successful oil well drilling depends largely on a good mud Program. During drilling, mud provides sufficient hydrostatic pressure, removes drill cuttings and cools drill bits. Mud additives are always required to provide sufficient hydrostatic pressure to ensure borehole stability. Barium Sulphate ($BaSO_4$) also known as barite is the prevalent weighting material but there is needed to develop local materials to augment the use of Barite. The present search is concerned on the early Carboniferous succession exposed in Um Bogma Formation, west central Sinai, Egypt as a new weighting agent in drilling fluids. The increases in the cost of drilling fluids and a shortage of using barite have introduced the locale dolomite as alternative weighting materials. The rheological properties of mud drilling samples weighted by local dolomite samples are being examined and investigated to know its potential to be used as a weighting material in drilling mud. Two mud samples were prepared which comprised of fresh water, caustic soda, bentonite and the weighting material. The weighting materials are added to achieve the required density. The first sample: Water-based mud with commercial barite of density between 10.00 lb/gm and 18.00 lb/gm. The second sample: Water-based mud with dolomite of density between 10.00 lb/gm and 18.00 lb/gm. These samples were analyzed and the density, rheological properties, aging of barite and dolomite and solid contents were investigated. At 10.00 lb/gm, the yield point of dolomite was $20.00lb/100ft^2$ and barite $22.00lb/100ft^2$ while the 10 second gel strength of dolomite was $30.00lb/100ft^2$ and $22.00lb/100ft^2$ for barite. Similarly, little difference was observed in plastic and apparent viscosities. At 10.00 lb/gm, the plastic and apparent viscosities of dolomite were 8.00 cp and 20.00 cp while barite was 8.00 cp and 24.00 cp. The result show that dolomite mud sample gave a little higher yield point and gel strength than barite mud sample. Therefore, dolomite has the potential to be used as weighting material in drilling mud in place of barite thereby enhancing the local content initiative of the government. When dolomite is sourced locally and used it will reduce overall mud and drilling costs.

Two calorimetric experiments were performed to investigate the effects of two diets with same concentrate: roughage ratio (70:30) but varying in composition on energy metabolism and methane production in faunated (F) and defaunated (DF) Muzaffarnagari sheep. For experiment I, ten animals were divided equally into two groups of which one was kept normally F as such while other was DF using 10% sodium lauryl sulphate. All the animals were offered diet I which comprised of oat hay and concentrate mixture I (CM I) containing maize grain (93%) as a major ingredient in 70:30 ratio. Similarly, the experiment II was conducted for which four F and four DF sheep (same as used for experiment I) were switched to diet II that consisted of maize hay and CM II (maize grain 59% + molasses 36%). Through diet II, DM intake in DF sheep was significantly (p<0.05) lower. Intake of GE through both the diets was similar in F and DF sheep. Digestibility of DM, OM, CP and GE and also metabolisability (ME/GE) was similar in F and DF sheep on both the diets. Total urinary energy loss did not differ in F and DF on both the diets, but methane energy loss as a percent of GE in DF was significantly (p<0.05) lower on diet I (3.75 vs 2.48), while it did not differ on diet II (3.20 vs 3.60). Heat production was significantly (p<0.01) reduced in DF on both the diets. Although, efficiency of utilisation of ME for maintenance calculated as per ARC (1984) did not differ in F and DF on both the diets, efficiency for maintenance and growth was higher (0.60 vs 0.672) on diet I in DF. It was inferred that methane production in DF sheep reduces on good quality hay-based diet supplemented with slowly fermentable carbohydrate (maize grain) but supplementation of molasses (rapidly fermentable CHO) nullify this effect when sheep were fed diets with concentrate: roughage ratio of 70:30.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of supplements with different crude protein (CP) contents on grazing cattle intake, digestibility, ruminal fermentation pattern, and nitrogen (N) metabolism characteristics during the rainy season. Five ruminal and abomasal cannulated Holstein${\times}$Zebu steers (296 kg body weight, BW) were used in a $5{\times}5$ Latin square design. The animals grazed five signal grass paddocks (0.34 ha). The five treatments evaluated were: Control (no supplement) and 1.0 g of supplement/kg BW with 0, 330, 660, and 1,000 g of CP/kg as-fed. The supplement was composed of starch, soybean meal, urea, and ammonium sulphate. There was a positive linear effect ($p{\leq}0.033$) of the CP content in the supplements on the organic matter (OM), CP, and digested OM intakes. The provision of supplements did not increase ($p{\geq}0.158$), on average, total and ruminal digestibilities of OM and CP. However, the increase in CP content in the supplements caused a positive linear effect ($p{\leq}0.018$) on ruminal digestibilities of OM and CP. Additionally, a quadratic effect of the CP contents of the supplements were observed (p = 0.041) for the ruminal digestibility of neutral detergent fiber corrected for ash and protein, with the highest estimate obtained with the CP content of 670 g/kg. The supply of supplements increased (p<0.001) the ruminal ammonia N concentration, which also changed linearly and positively (p<0.001) according to increase in CP content in the supplements. The apparent N balance and relative N balance (g/g N intake) were not, on average, changed ($p{\geq}0.164$) by the supplements supply. However, both showed a tendency of a linear increase ($p{\leq}0.099$) with increasing supplement CP content. The supplements increased (p = 0.007) microbial N production in the rumen, which also changed linearly and positively (p = 0.016) with increasing supplement CP content. In conclusion, protein supplementation in grazing cattle during the rainy season, while stimulating voluntary forage intake, results in higher efficiency of N utilization when compared to energy supplementation. This is a possible response to increased microbial protein synthesis in the rumen and improved N status in the animal body.

Nanofiltration (NF) is a recently introduced term in membrane separation. In 1988, Eriksson was one of the first authors using the word 'nanofiltration' explicitly. Some years before, FilmTech started to use this term for their NF50 membrane which was supposed to be a very loose reverse osmosis membrane or a very tight ultrafiltration membrane. Since then, this term has been introduced to indicate a specific boundary of membrane technology in between ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. The application fields of the NF membranes are very broad as follows: Demeneralizing water, Cleaning up contaminated groundwater, Ultrapure water production, Treatment of effleunts containing heavy metals, Offshore oil platforms, Yeast production, Pulp and paper mills, Textile production, Electroless copper plating, Cheese whey production, Cyclodextrin production, Lactose production. The earliest NF membrane was made by Cadotte et al, using piperazine and trimesoyl chloride as monomers for the formation of polyamide active layer of the composite type membrane. They coated very thin interfacially potymerized polyamide on the surface of the microporous polysulfone supports. The NF membrane exhibited low rejections for monovalent anions (chloride) and high rejections for bivalent anions (sulphate). This membrane was called NS300. Some of the earliest NF membranes, like the NF40 membrane of FilmTech, the NTR7250 of Nitto-Denko and the UTC20 and UTC60 of Toray, are formed by a comparable synthesis route as the NS300 membrane. Commercially available NF membranes nowadays are as follows: ASP35 (Advanced Membrane Technology), MPF21; MPF32 (Kiryat Weizmann), UTC20; UTC60; UTC70; UTC90 (Toray), CTA-LP; TFCS (Fluid Systems), NF45; NF70 (FilmTec), BQ01; MX07; HG01; HG19; SX01; SX10 (Osmonics), 8040-LSY-PVDI (Hydranautics), NF CA30; NF PES 10 (Hoechst), WFN0505 (Stork Friesland). The typical ones among the commercially available NF membranes are polyamide composite membrane consisting of interfacially polymerized polyamide active layer and microporous support. While showing high water fluxes and high rejections of multivalent ions and small organic molecules, these membranes have relatively low chemical stability. These membranes have low chlorine tolerance and are unstable in acid or base solution. This chemical instability is appearing to be a big obstacle for their applications. To improve the chemical stability, we have tried, in this study, to prepare chemically stable NF membranes from PVA. The ionomers and interfacially polymerized polyamide were used for the modification of'the PVA membranes. For the detail study of the active layer, homogeneous NF membranes made only from active layer materials were prepared and for the high performance, composite type NF membranes were prepared by coating the active layer materials on microporous polysulfone supports.

본 연구는 해저 환경 내에서의 철제유물 부식인자 중 황화물에 의한 부식상태 및 출수 후 대기 중 고습 상태에서의 손상 현상에 대한 것이다. 이를 위하여 충청남도 태안 마도해역 뻘층에서 출수된 철제유물 4점에서 생성된 부식생성물을 대상으로 황화물의 존재 여부를 확인하고자 SEM-EDS 및 XRD 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 해저퇴적토 내에서 형성된 부식생성물은 주요 성분이 황(S)이며 화합물로서 황화철(FeS)이 형성되었고, 해저면에 노출된 상태에서 형성된 부식생성물은 일부 결과를 제외하면 표면을 덮고 있는 응결물(concretion)의 영향으로 뚜렷한 부식 양상이 나타나지 않았다. 출수 후 고습 상태에서 철제유물의 손상 현상을 확인하기 위해 부식생성물을 고습 제습환경에 노출시키는 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과, 고습 환경에서 황화철 부식생성물의 산화는 황산철($FeSO_4$)과 함께 황산($H_2SO_4$)을 생성하여 철제유물을 2차적으로 부식시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 해저 환경에서 출수된 철제유물의 황화철 부식생성물은 반드시 제거하고 유물의 보존 환경도 제습된 상태가 유지되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

콘크리트의 수축으로부터 발생하는 구속응력은 균열을 유발하고, 그에 따라 황산염 및 염화이온의 침투로 인한 철근의 부식으로 인해 콘크리트 구조물의 내구성을 저하시킨다. 특히, W/B가 감소할수록 균열 발생 가능성이 크며, 따라서 고강도 콘크리트(HSC), 초고강도 콘크리트(UHSC)의 수축 및 균열 거동의 정확한 이해와 평가가 필요하다. 하지만, 기존의 비구속 수축 실험은 콘크리트의 강도발현, 응력의 이완, 균열강도 및 구속도 등을 고려할 수 없으며, 균열 발생에 영향을 미치는 수축량의 평가에 한계가 있었다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 비구속 수축실험과 구속 수축실험(ring-test)을 통하여 W/B(30, 25, 16%) 및 혼화재에 따른 HSC, UHSC의 수축, 균열 거동을 평가하였다. 실험 결과, 자기수축 및 총 건조수축은 W/B가 클수록, 플라이애쉬(FA) 및 고로슬래그미분말(BFS)의 치환율이 증가할수록 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, W/B의 증가 및 콘크리트 두께의 증가, FA의 혼입은 균열 발생을 효과적으로 억제하는 것으로 나타났다.

In order to understand the precipitation acidity and chemical composition of ion species in Iksan area as well as to know the difference of chemical characteristics in precipitation samples from the viewpoint of precipitation sampling method, precipitation samples were collected by wet-only automatic precipitation sampler and bulk manual precipitation sampler in Iksan, from March 2003 to August 2003. The mean pH of precipitation was 5.0. There was a little significant difference in the mean value of pH between automatic and manual sampler. However, pH values of some precipitation samples were lower in automatic sampler than in manual sampler, especially in case of precipitation samples with small rainfall for March 2003. The mean concentrations of each ions in precipitation were generally a little higher in precipitation samples collected by the manual sampler than in those collected by the automatic sampler because of accumulation of dry deposition on the surface of glass funnel installed at the manual sampler during the sampling period or no rainfall. Dominant species determining the acidity of precipitation, were N $H_4$$^{[-10]}$ and nss-C $a^{2+}$ for cations and nss-S $O_4$$^{2-}$ and N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ for anions. The mean concentration of N $H_4$$^{+}$ and nss-C $a^{2+}$ were 31 $\mu$eq/L and 9 $\mu$eq/L for the automatic sampler and 40 ueq/L and 16 ueq/L for the manual sampler, respectively. In addition, nss-S $O_4$$^{2-}$ and N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ were 27 $\mu$eq/L and 13 $\mu$eq/L for the automatic sampler and 32 $\mu$eq/L and 17 $\mu$eq/L for the manual sampler, respectively. Although the concentrations of the acidifying ions of nss-S $O_4$$^{2-}$ and N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ were about 3 times higher than those for foreign pristine sites, precipitation acidity were estimated to be natural due to the neutralization reaction of the alkaline species of N $H_4$$^{+}$ and nss-C $a^{2+}$ with its higher concentrations. Considering the ratios of nss-S $O_4$$^{2-}$/N $O_4$$^{[-10]}$ nss-S $O_4$$^{2-}$, it was found that ammonium sulphate was dominant in Iksan precipitation. The major non-sea salt ions were maximum concentrations for March, but decreased with increasing of precipitation amount.on amount.

본 연구는 제주도 백록담 담수호에서 해안변 용천수에 이르는 고도별로 대표적인 55개 용천수에 대한 지역적 수질특성과 그 진화과정을 연구하였다. 조사지역 55개 용천수의 수질분석 결과 관음사물은 수소이온농도에서, 유수암천, 장수물, 덕지샘물, 신촌큰물, 영천사, 운량천, 하원통물, 동해물, 색달생수, 안덕계곡, 화순곤물, 돗물, 화강물, 정금물은 주변 육상오염원들에 의해서, 삼양제3수원, 신촌큰물, 명법사, 서느렁물, 토산물, 정금물, 곽지물, 애월하물, 고내물, 녹고물은 해수침입에 의해 오염이 진행중인 용천수들로 분류되었다. 용천수내의 전기전도도, pH, 질산성질소, 중탄산이온은 강수량이 많았을 때 그 농도가 증가하였으며, 나트륨, 염소이온, 황산이온은 강수량이 많았을 때 그 농도가 감소하였고, 칼륨과 마그네슘, 칼슘은 영향이 미미하였다. Piper의 삼각다이어그램을 통한 조사지역 용천수의 수질특성을 보면 고산지역은 Sodium or Potassium type과 bicarbonate type의 군을 이루었고, 중산간지 역은 Sodium or Potassium type과 No dominant type의 군을 형성하였으며, 저지대지역은 No dominant type과 Sulfate or Nitrate type의 군을, 해안지역은 Sodium or Potassium type과 Chloride type 및 No dominant type의 복잡한 용천수군을 형성하고 있었다. 즉 제주도 용천수는 해발고도가 높은 고산 및 중산간지역에서는 bicarbonate type이 우세한 수질조성에서 저지대 및 해안지역으로 유동되면서 non-bicarbonate type 형태의 수질로 변질되어가고 있었다.
