Abstract

This study investigated the effects of various inorganic anions($Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $HCO_3{^-}$) on the Methyl tert Butyl Ether(MTBE) degradation by photocatalysis using statistical method. Generally, this process in general demands the generation of hydroxyl radicals(OH radical) in solution in the presence of UV light. The generation of radicals were affected by inorganic anions in solution that inhibited the photodegradation by their trapping hydroxyl radicals. The effects of inorganic anions were mathematically described as the independent variables such as $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, and $HCO_3{^-}$, and these were designed by mixture analysis that was one of the response surface methodology(RSM). Regression analysis on ANOVA showed significant p-value(p<0.0001) and high coefficients for determination value($R^2$=99.28%, ${R^2}_{adj}$=98.91%). Contour and response surface plots showed that the effects of inorganic anions for MTBE photodegradation based on $UV/H_2O_2$ process. In the result, $Cl^-$ and $HCO_3{^-}$ inhibited the photodegradation of the MTBE by their trapping hydroxyl radicals, and the interaction by these two factors was observed.

이 연구는 Methyl tert Btyl Ether(MTBE)의 광촉매반응을 통한 제거시에 다양한 음이온($Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$, $HCO_3{^-}$)들의 영향을 통계적 방법을 사용하여 조사하였다. 이 공정은 일반적으로 UV의 존재 하에 수용액상에 생성되는 Hydroxyl radicals(OH라디칼)의 생성에 기초하며, 이러한 라디칼들의 생성은 수용액 상의 무기 음이온들이 OH라디칼과의 반응에 의해 광분해를 방해한다. 이런 무기음이온들의 영향은 반응표면법(RSM)의 한 종류인 혼합물분석(Mixture analysis)를 통해 $Cl^-$, $NO_3{^-}$와 $HCO_3{^-}$의 독립변수들을 수학적으로 표현하였다. 분산분석(Analysis of variance; ANOVA)의 회귀분석항은 유의한 p값(p<0.0001)과 높은 결정계수($R^2$=99.28%, ${R^2}_{adj}$=98.91%)를 나타냈다. 그리고 등고선도(Contour plot)와 반응표면도(Response surface plot)는 $UV/H_2O_2$ 공정에 기초한 MTBE 광분해에 대한 무기 이온들의 영향을 나타내었다. 이 연구의 결과는 MTBE의 광분해에 대해 $Cl^-$와 $HCO_3{^-}$ 이온이 OH라디칼의 생성을 방해하는 것으로 나타났고 이 두 인자에 의한 상호작용이 관찰되었다.
