Abstract

The feasibility of lead removal by electrolytic coprecipitation was investigated. Electrolysis bath was divided into anode and cathode chamber with anion exchange resin filled membrane. Sea water was electrolyzed and pH of the electrolyte in cathode chamber was increased. Consequently it induced the formation of $Mg(OH)_2$ and $CaCO_3$. The colloidal type precipitates, hich have high surface area, adsorbed lead ions in sea water and coprecipitated. Sea water electrolyses were conducted at different current density. Concentrations of Mg, Ca and Pb in the solution were measured with titration and ASV method. Morphology and crystallography were analyzed with SEM, EDS and XRD. As pH and current density increased, most of lead ions in the sea water were successfully removed.

전기분해와 공침법을 이용한 해수 중의 납 제거 가능성에 대하여 실험하였다. 전기분해조는 음이온교환수지를 채운 격막으로 분리되었다. 전기분해가 진행됨에 따라 음극식의 pH는 상승하여 콜로이드 형태의 $Mg(OH)_2$와 $CaCO_3$이 생성되었다. 넓은 표면적을 가지는 콜로이드 입자는 납 이온을 흡착하여 침천되었다. 전류밀도를 변화시키면서 바닷물의 전기분해하였으며 바닷물에 남아있는 Mg, Ca, Pb의 양을 적정법과 ASV 방법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 전류밀도와 pH가 증가함에 따라 바닷물 중의 납은 대부분 효과적으로 제거되었다.
