In this study, we are going to compare the chemical composition of the precipitation that falls in the Dangjin and Anmyon-do areas by analyzing the water soluble components (anion and cation). We also examined the effects of seasonal change and regional difference in those data sets. The [$NO_3\;^- \;+\;SO_4\;^{2-}$] at 49.2${\mu}$eq/l is 67% of the total anion of 73.1${\mu}$eq/l, while that of [$NH_4\;^+\;+\;Ca^{2+}$] at 37.7${\mu}$eq/l is 62% of the cation in Dangjin area. Also, the [$NO_3\;^-\;+\;SO_4\;^{2-}$] concentration of 151.8 (${\mu}$eq/l) is 62% for the total anion of 143.5 (${\mu}$eq/l), and the [$NH_4\;^+\;+\;Ca^{2+}$] concentration of 119.7 (${\mu}$eq/l) is 47% for the cation of 254.3 (${\mu}$eq/l) in Anmyon-do area. The ion composition ratio is shown for the order by 22% of $SO_4\;^{2-}$, 20.8% of $NH_4\;^+$ and 15.4% of $Cl^-$ that is the sum of 58.7% for the total ion composition in Dangjin area, and is the order by 33.8% of $NH_4\;^+$, 16.3% of $SO_4\;^{2-}$ and 11.1% of $Cl^-$ in Anmyon-do area. Furthermore, We predicted that even areas which were previously clean will get acid rain if there is large scale construction there or nearby.

The lack of water resources is becoming worse due to water pollution with accelerated industrialzation and regional unbalanced distribution of water resources. In recent, the production water quality is decreasing because of the increased organic matters and soluble solids in the water sources for power plants. The purpose of this paper discribes the ststus and prospect of membrane application in electric power industry. So this study lies in developing a process which can produce high purity water by appluing RO(Reserve Osmosis) ahead of the IX(Ion Exchange) tower and evaluating the product water quality and the cost effectiveness. The capital and operating cost for the treatment of brackish water, sea water by RO were presented as a reference for the review on securing water source for the new plant site.

This study was carried out to investigate the formation of precipitates between lead ion and the essential anions of plants, the effects of lead concentration on seed germination and plant growth in water and soil culture, and the germinating and growing recovery of inhibited seed germination and plant growth by lead. Four kinds of the seeds (Glycine max M., Triticum vulgare V., Setaria viridis (L) P. De Beauvois, and Digitoria sanguinalis (L) Scopoli var) were germinated and growth in water and soil culture included the different concentrations of lead for five days. The seeds and plants inhibited germination and growth by lead were transferred to lead free Hoagland solution and the growing recovery was observed. The precipitates of lead ion were observed in the solution of both acidity and alkalinity included each anion of $H_2PO_4^-, HPO_4^{2-}, PO_4^{3-}, SO_4^{2-} and MoO_4^{2-}$ in a room temperature, whereas the precipitates between lead ion and other anions were observed largely in the solution of alkalinity, so that it seemed that lead could be remained in the state of non-soluble in plant and soil. The inhibition of germination and growth in the water culture was observed in 100ppm of lead, whereas the inhibition in the case of the soil culture was observed in 10000ppm of lead. The difference of the effected concentration between water and soil culture in germination and the growth was 100 times. When the seed and plant inhibited the growth in 5000ppm or 10000ppm of lead for five days were transferred to lead free Hoagland solution, the recovery of germination and growth was observed in three days. This growing recovery was different according to the kinds of plant and concentrations of lead. It seemed that plant growth could be inhibited by the inhibition of the metabolism concerned with the precipitates between lead iion and other anions.

The chemical forms of calcium compounds in perilla leaves and their changes after harvest were investigated. The four types of calcium compounds extracted were as follows: water soluble calcium(F-I: mainly water soluble organic acid salts and calcium ion), IN-sodium chloride soluble calcium(F-II: calcium-pectate and calcium-carbonate), 2%-acetic acid soluble calcium(F-III: calcium-phosphate), and 5%-hydrochloric acid soluble calcium(F-IV: calcium-oxalate). The calcium content of perilla leaves was not found to vary with their age. Relatively high levels of F-l (28.4~39.5) and F-II (34.4~47.4) were found in young and mature leaves while the F-IV constituted 15.6~21.6% of the total calcium. The F-IV calcium contents of perilla. spinach and jaso were 16.8, 42.4 and 22.3%, respectively. In contrast to calcium. magnesium existed as water soluble magnesium at the highest content of 90.6% in spinach while 62.9% and 16.8% of the total magnesium existed as water soluble magnesium in perilla and jaso, repectively. The change in vitamin C and F-IV calcium content were examined for 7 days after harvest. Vitamin C content decreased slowly at the beginning but rapidly from the 4th day after harvest. On the other hand, the F-IV calcium content increased slowly at the beginning and rapidly from the 4th day of observation. This result suggests that the increase in F-IV calcium is related to the decrease in vitamin C content. This phenomena was more distinctly observed at 2$0^{\circ}C$ than 5$^{\circ}C$.

Proliferation of algae on the surface of concrete or mortar in aquatic habitat has a negative impact on maintenance of concrete-based structures. Growth of algae may decrease stability of structure by bio-deterioration. In this study, we developed a functional mortar for restraining bio-deterioration by using $Cu^{2+}$ ion. The mortar contains soluble glass beads made of $Cu^{2+}$ ion, which can dissolve into water slowly. Mortars prepared with different ratio of glass beads (0, 2, 5, 10, and 15%) were placed in a culture medium with algae and incubated over a month period. Water chemistry, chlorophyll-a, and extracellular enzyme activities were measured. The incubation was conducted in both freshwater and seawater conditions, to assess applicability to both aquatic conditions. Overall, mortar with Cu glass exhibited lower chlorophyll-a content, suggesting that the functional mortar reduced algal growth. DOC concentration increased because debris of dead algae increased. Cu glass also decreased phosphatase activity, which is involved in the regeneration of inorganic P from organic moieties. Since, P is often a limiting nutrient for algal production, algal growth may be inhibited. Activities of ${\beta}$-glucosidase and N-acetylglucosaminidase were not significantly affected because carbon and nitrogen mineralization may not be influenced by the Cu glass beads. Our study suggests that functional mortar with Cu glass beads may reduce the growth of algae on the surface, while it has little environmental impact.

Continuous Water-Soluble Organic Carbons (WSOC) by the Particle Into Liquid Sampler - Total Organic Carbon (PILS-TOC) analyzer were measured at the Seoul intensive monitoring site from June 17 through July 5 in 2014. In addition, the 24 hour integrated PM2.5 collected by Teflon and Quartz filters were analyzed for water soluble ions by Ion chromatography (IC), WSOC by TOC from water extracts, organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC) by carbon analyzer using the thermal optical transmittance (TOT) method, and mass fragment ions (m/z) related to alkanes and PAHs (Poly Aromatic Hydrocarbons) by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer-Thermal Desorption (GC/MS-TD). Based on the statistical analysis, four different Carbonaceous Thermal Distributions (CTDs) from OCEC thermal-gram were identified. This study discusses the primary and secondary sources of WSOC based on the Classified CTD, organic mass fragments, and diurnal patterns of WSOC. The results provide knowledge regarding the origins of WSOC and their behaviors.

The fire protective coating can reduce certain damages in case of fire, also conserve energy by thermal insulation and prevent corrosion and errosion in normal daily life by means of blocking thermal transfer, that were generally made of organic, inorganic and metallic materials as adiabatic coating. In case of inorganic material such as soluble silicate, it produces less toxic substances which are exposed to Ore, and have a plenty of raw material. Also inorganic thermal insulator is good in heat resistance. To develope such a excellent inorganic thermal insulator, the study of fire protective coating using the alkali silicate is necessary The principle of intumescence for alkali silicate is from rapid evolution of water in the coating material, the quantity of water in it is of course influenced on the degree of intumescence. The phenomenon of intumescence in ternary silicate is increased as the radius of ion is bigger, and this is caused by evolution of so many kinds of water. The individual degree of intumescence is ordered like this ; $K^+$ > $Na^+$ > $Li^+$ . The best protection effect is similarity found to intumescence of ternary silicate. The result of X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that $KHSi_2O_5$ is an important ingredient in K-silicate.

The purpose of the study was characteristics of secondary pollutants of $PM_{10}$ collected in pocheon between August 2002 and June 2003. The ambient concentrations of $PM_{10}$ mass, 9 water-soluble anions and cations, and 13 bulk composition trace elements were determined from filter samples collected by $PM_{10}$ high volume air sampler(UV-15H, Graseby-Anderson Co., USA). During this period average $PM_{10}$ mass concentration was $83.8{\mu}g/m^3(49.8{\mu}g/m^3\~111.6{\mu}g/m^3)$ in Pocheon. Mechanism for transformation of secondary pollutants by soluble ion components is divided into two categories; $NaNO_3$ type by the reaction of sea salt and $HNO_3$ in the atmosphere, and nitrate salt or phosphate salt type such as $(NH_4)_2SO_4,\;NH_4NaSO_4,\;and\;(NH_4)_2SO_4(2NH_4O_3)$.
