The mechanical properties and microstructure of ceramics of the system Al2O3-ZrO2-Y2O3 sintered at 1$650^{\circ}C$ for 2h after powder preparation by the precipitation method from Al2(SO4)3.18H2O, ZrOCl2.8H2O and YCl3.6H2O were investigated. The Al2O3-ZrO2-Y2O3 ceramics sintered at 1$650^{\circ}C$ for 2h after mixing alpha-Al2O3 and ZrO2-Y2O3 powders, both were separately precipitated and calcined, were found to have the relative density higher than 97.5% so that the strengthening and toughening mechanisms could be explained mainly as the stress-induced phase transformation. On the other hand, the sintered bodies prepared by co-precipitating the three starting materials were measured to have the relative density lower than 85% so that the degradation of strength were observed above 15 vol% ZrO2 contents due to the high porosity by which the effect of stress-induced phase transformation was assumed to be depressed.

Oxidative dimerization of methane to C2-hydrocarbons was performed over lead aluminate spinel catalysts. These spinel catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation, aerogel, and sol-gel methods. The active phase of lead aluminate oxides was found to be PbAl2O4 spinel. The activities of the catalysts were strongly dependent on the preparation method as well as the composition of PbAl2O4 phase. The proper oxygen mobility of PbAl2O4 spinel oxides appeared to be important to get high catalytic activity and selectivity for C2-hydrocarbon formation.

This study was carried out in order to define the effective collectors and the opitimum conditions for the removal of iron ion in waste water by flotation method. The results obtained in this study are summarized as follows. Fe(II) and Fe(III) were removed effectively at pH7 and 6 respectively by using sodium lauryl sulfate, an anionic collector. The anionic collector, aeropromotor 845, removed both Fe(II) and Fe(III) effectively in pH ranges of from 5 to 9. The cationic collector, trimetyl dodecyl ammonium chloride, removed both Fe(II) and Fe(III) effectively in pH ranges from 10 to 11 and from 4 to 10, respectively. Therefore, Fe(II) and Fe(III) could be effectively removed by forming the iron hydroxide precipitates by simple pH adjustment of the solutions above precipitation point of ferrous and ferric ion by flotation method. Then, the effective pH regulator and collector were NaOH and $Na_2CO_3$,aeropromotor 845 and trimetyl dodecyl ammonium chloride, respectively.

After kaolin clay was artificially contaminated with Co$^{2+}$ ion, the remediation characteristics were analyzed by the electrokinetic method. Ethanoic buffer was injected in the soil column and $CH_3$COOH was continuously inputted to the cathode reservoir to restrain the pH increase. Since the pH of the cathode side of the soil column was 4.0 initially and increased to only 6.5 after remediation for 43.6 hours, precipitate, Co(OH)$_2$, was not formed in the column. The effluent rate increased with the passage of time and Co$^{2+}$ removal in the column at the initial time were mainly controlled by ion migration. 13.1% of the total amount of Co$^{2+}$ in the soil column was removed in 10 hours, 46.8% of the total Co$^{2+}$ in 20.8 hours, 71.7% of the total Co$^{2+}$ in 30.1 hours, and 94.6% of the total Co$^{2+}$ in 43.6 hours. Meanwhile, residual concentrations in the column calculated by the developed model were similar to those by experiment. experiment.

Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃ and Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C composite with single phase monoclinic structure for the cathode materials are successfully synthesized by direct co-precipitation method using N₂H₄·H₂O as the reducing agent and alginic acid as the carbon source, and their electrochemical properties were compared. The particles with approximately 1~2 ㎛ size and the uniform spherical-like morphology of the narrow particle size distribution were obtained. In addition, the residual carbon can also improve the electrical conductivity. The Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃/C composite has improved initial specific discharge capacity and excellent cycle characteristics to maintain capacity stably than Li₃V₂(PO₄)₃. The results indicate that the reducing agent and carbon composite can affect the good crystallinity and electrochemical performance of the cathode materials.

Rainwater was collected in Seoul area from January 1991 to December 1993 (over 3years) and by the analysis of the chemical components contained in rainwater, investigated the components that effect on rainwater pH Through the above studies the following conclusions were obtained. 1) Method for Averaging pH Volume weighted method is considered to be acceptable providing that precipitation is measured at the same time when the samples are taken, without precipitation data a simple averaging method should be the next choice. 2) Annual average rainwater pH was 4.98 in 1991, 4.80 in 1992, 4.67 in 1993, measurement range was 3.6-8.1. 3) In the relationship between rainwater pH and rainfall amounts rainwater pH for light rain(<15mm rainfall) was existent in the wide range(pH 4-7), but for heavy rain was corresponded to the annual average values. 4) Annual frequency of pH was Birrndat the frequency($\gamma $) between the density of the [$H^{+}$] and pH in the rainwater(over 3years ), $NO_{3}^{-}$ was excellent and the obtained results was 0.62 in 1992. Also In the correlation coefficient($\gamma $) according to the pH range $SO_{4}^{2-}, NO_{3}^{-}$, were 0.85 ,0.68 at 3.6 $Cl^-$ was 0.99(1993). At 4.1$NO_{3}^{-}(\gamma=0.48)$ in 1992, SO_4^{2-}($\gamma$=0.54), $NO_{3}^{-}(\gamma$=0.72), $Cl^- (\gamma$=0.49) in 1993. 6) pH values gradually increased with increase in $Ca^{2+}/SO_{4}^{2-}$.

The effects of Al2O3 and Cr2O3 addition on the mechanical properties and microstructures of Y-TZP ceramics obtained by co-precipitation method of ZrO2＋3m/o Y2O3, following pressureless sintering at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 2h were investigated. The addition of Al2O3 and Cr2O3 improved the Y-TZP sinterability and the Al2O3 addition showed the better effect on Y-TZP sintering than that of the Cr2O3 addition. The density and microstructure had the better effect on the bending strength of specimen more than stressinduced phase transformation (SIPT) of ZrO2 from tetragonal to monoclinic phase. The hardness of the specimens was found to be depend on the relative density and the fracture toughness of Y-TZP was found to rely on the amount of SIPT. The grian size of Cr2O3-doped Y-TZP was observed to be relatively smaller and had a narrower distribution than that of Al2O3-doped Y-TZP. If decomposition reaction of Cr2O3 can be controlled at high temperatures, it is anticipated that the mechanical properties of Y-TZP can be much improved by the Cr2O3 addition.

The effects of$ Fe_2O_3$ aggregation on the sintering of Ba-ferrite (BaFe$_{12}O_{19}$) were studied. $BaCO_3-Fe_2O_3$ mixtures were prepared by partial precipitation mixing and ball-mill mixing method using two different $Fe_2O_3 $powders. Techniques employed were TG, XRD and SEM. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the over all reaction basically consists of the two consecutive reaction; $BaCO_3 + 6Fe_2O_3\;{\longrightarrow}\;BaFe_2O_3 + 5Fe_2O_3 + CO_2{\uparrow}\;BaFe_2O_4 + 5Fe_2O_3 \;{\longrightarrow}\;BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ It is also shown that the aggregation state of $Fe_2O_3$ raw materials, as well as the mixing method, has a remarkable effect on solid state reaction between $BaCO_3\;and\;Fe_2O_3$.

Spent lithium-ion batteries are treated by reduction-smelting at high temperatures to recover valuable metals. Solvent extraction and precipitation of the HCl leaching solution of reduction-smelted metallic alloys resulted in a filtrate containing Ni(II) and a small amount of Si(IV). Adsorption and precipitation experiments were conducted to recover pure Ni(II) compounds from the filtrate. Si(IV) was selectively loaded onto polyacrylamide, but this method did not efficiently filter the solution due to an increase in viscosity. The addition of Na₂CO₃ as a precipitant to the filtrate led to the simultaneous precipitation of Ni(II) and Si(IV). However, it was possible to recover nickel oxalate with a purity higher than 99.99% by selectively precipitating Ni(II) with the addition of Na₂C₂O₄ as a precipitant.

In this research, the Ir supported $TiO_2$ (P25) catalyst was prepared by precipitation method for oxygen evolution reaction. The $Ir/TiO_2$ catalyst was synthesised by reduction reaction using reducing agent. Physiochemical characterizations of synthesized $Ir/TiO_2$ catalyst was studied by means of SEM, EDS mapping, TEM and XRD. The Electrochemical characterizations were tested by using the technique of CV and LSV by RDE and Potentiostat. Physicochemical properties were characterized with XRD where Iridium metal morphology and Ir(111) and Ir(222) peaks were founded. $Ir0.2Ru0.8O_2$ exhibited higher OER activity than $Ir0.5Ru0.5O_2$ followed by $Ir/TiO_2$ and $IrO_2$.
