Abstract

Waste foundry sands were tested to determine their leaching characteristics when used as reactive media in permeable reactive barriers (PRBs). Water leach tests and column leach tests were performed on twelve foundry sands and three reference materials such as Peerless iron, a local fill material, and torpedo sand. The latter three materials were tested to compare concentrations of heavy metals and anions found in other materials commonly placed below the groundwater table with those from the foundry sands. Results of water leach tests md total elemental analyses showed that all of the laundry sands are Category 2 materials per Section NR 538 of the Wisconsin Administrator Code. However, tests on Peerless iron, torpedo sand, and a typical fill material indicate that these materials, which are commonly placed below the groundwater table, also are Category 2 materials. Thus, using foundry sand as a PR3 medium should pose no greater risk than that imposed using conventional construction materials.

폐주물사가 반응벽체의 매체로 쓰였을 때의 중금속, 음이온과 PAMs의 용출 특성을 12개의 폐주물사와 3개의 기준 물질(Peerless iron, local fill soil, and torpedo sand)을 선택하여 batch와 column 실험을 통하여 밝혔다. 3개의 기준 물질은 이들로부터 얻어진 용출특성을 폐주물사와 비교하기 위해 사용되었다. Water leach test와 total elemental analyses로부터 얻어진 결과에 따라 모든 폐주물사는 그룹 2에 속하였다. 하지만, 일반적으로 지하수면 아래에 건설재료로 이용되는 3개의 기준물질도 역시 그룹 2로 분류되었다. 따라서, 폐주물사의 반응벽체에의 사용은 일반적인 건설재료를 지하수면 아래에 사용하였을 시와 비교했을 때에 비해 비슷한 농도의 중금속과 음이온이 용출됨을 알 수 있다.
