A Study on The Coagulation Characteristics of The Aluminium Etching Waste

알루미늄 식각폐액의 응집 특성에 관한 연구

In this study, the performance of Aluminium foil etching waste(PWF100) as a cohesive agent was estimated and the methods to commercialize it were investigated through comparison of physical properties between Aluminium foil etching waste(PWF100) and commercial cohesive agent(PAC17). The height of sediment bed was measured according ot the change of the concentration of BKN-100, BKR-110, and BKR-120 prepared by using PWF100. When the concentrations of BKN-100, BKR-110, and BKR-120 were increased, the heights of sediment bed were constant after decreased. Also, the density of sediment bed was investigated according to the change of the concentration of BKN-100. When the concentrations of BKN-100 were increased, the densities of sediment bed were decreased. In addition, based on the concentration of BKN-100, BKR-110, and BKR-120, the sediment rate was experimented. When the concentrations of BKN-100, BKR-110, and BKR-120 were increased, sediment rates were rapid and then slow. Moreover, the volumes of sediment bed were measured according to the change of the concentration of BKN-100. According to increasing the concentrations of BKN-100, the required time for getting to the minimum volume of sedment bed were reduced and then increased. Lastly, the required time for sedimentation based on the concentration of BKN-100, BKR-110, and BKR-120 was investigated. When the concentrations of BKN-100, BKR-110, and BKR-120 were increased, the required times for sedimentation were increased after decreased. From these results, it can be concluded that the PWF100 acts as a cohesive agent.

본 연구는 알루미늄 식각액(PWF100)이 응집제로서의 성능을 가지고 있는가를 평가하고 시중에서 판매되고 있는 응집제(PAC17)와의 물성을 비교하였다. PWF100을 이용하여 제조된 BKN-100, BKR-110, 그리고 BKR-120의 농도에 따른 침전층의 높이를 측정하였는데 농도가 낮은 범위에서는 첨가제의 농도가 증가할수록 침전층의 높이가 감소하지만 일정농도 이상에서는 침전층의 높이가 일정해졌다. BKN-100의 농도에 따른 침전층의 밀도를 조사하였는데 BKN-100의 농도가 증가에 따라 침전층의 밀도가 감소하는 경향이 있었다. BKN-100, BKR-110, 그리고 BKR-120 응집제의 첨가량에 따른 침강속도의 변화를 조사하였는데, 첨가량이 증가함에 따라서 침강속도가 빨라지지만 일정한 농도 이상에서는 침강속도가 둔화되었다. BKN-100, BKR-110, 그리고 BKR-120의 농도에 따른 침전층 형성시간의 변화를 측정하였는데, 저농도 영역에서는 농도가 증가함에 따라 침전층 형성시간이 감소하지만 일정농도 이상에서는 침전층 형성시간이 증가하였다. 위의 실험결과로부터 PWF100은 응집제로서의 효과가 있는 것으로 판정되었다.
