Since its inception, the VFP has demonstrated that sharing thoughts and ideas through face-to-face contacts and dialogue works as a catalyst for enhancing mutual understanding among scholars and professionals with diverse background. By successfully implementing the VFP for the past 7 years, KIEP has been motivated to assume the role as a hub for international economic research in the region. As a host of the program, KIEP has many mandates. One of those tasks is to let more people know what has been accomplished through the program and how valuable it is.

  • Sources of Metasilicate in Mineral Water of Jingyu County, Northeastern China
    E3S Web of Conferences 98, 01052 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20199801052 WRI-16 Sources of metasilicate in mineral water of Jingyu County, northeastern China Changlai Xiao1, Yajie Yuan1, Xiujuan Liang1,*,Weifei Yang1, and Ying Sun1 1Key Laboratory of Groundwater Resources and Environment, Ministry of Education, Jilin University, No 2519, Jiefang Road, Changchun130021, PR China Abstract. The source of metasilicate in mineral water of Jingyu County. located in Changbai Mountains of northeastern China, was analysed through two groups of water-rock interaction experiments. One is a hydrolysis immersion experiment using basalt and the other is an immersion experiment utilizing a mixture of soil, scoria, and clastic basalt under the same conditions. Results indicate that the metasilicate in mineral water is mainly derived from the hydrolysis of silicates and silica in the basalt, scoria, and soil. In the first immersion experiment, the release of metasilicate is linear, with dissolved metasilicate increasing continuously through time at a stable release rate of about 0.01 mg/(kgday). The second experiment indicates that the contribution of soil and scoria to metasilicate in mineral water is higher than that of clastic basalt under the same conditions. 1 Introduction Many studies on hydrogeochemical characteristics of groundwater and on water-rock interactions have been conducted by different scholars [1-4]. Natural mineral water has attracted much attention due to its special components that are beneficial to our health [2-4]. Changbai Mountains is one of the three largest natural mineral water sources in the world, comparable to the Alps and the North Caucasus mountains. It is also a source of mineral water, with a large area of 16,300 km2 covered with basalt.
