Abstract

The objective of this study is to remove arsenate from artificially contaminated wastewater using CaAl-ettringite and CaAl-monosulfate which were synthesized in laboratory. The study was carried on the basis of solidification/stabilization of waste using cement. Monosulfate and ettringite are constituents of cement paste. The CaAl-ettringite has a chemical formula of $Ca_6Al_2O_6(SO_4)_3{\cdot}32H_2O$ and has a needle like morphology. Whereas CaAl-monosulfate $Ca_4Al_2O_6(SO_4){\cdot}12H_2O$ has layered double hydroxide structure (LDH) in which the mainlayer consists of Ca and Al and S as interlayer. Ettringite and monosulfate were synthesized by reaction of tricalcium aluminate and gypsum and hydrating this mixture at elevated temperature. The synthesized mineral were characterized by PXRD and FESEM to ensure purity. It was found that concentrations of As(V) in contaminated water were reduced from initial concentration of 1.335 mmol/L to 0.054 mmol/L and 0.300 mmol/L by CaAl-monosulfate and CaAl-ettringite respectively. The post experimental results of PXRD and FESEM analysis indicate that arsenate removal was by ion exchange.

시멘트를 이용한 고형화/안정화의 여러 기작 중 시멘트 페이스트의 구성물인 monosulfate와 ettringite에 초점을 맞춰 이들을 각 각 합성하고 인공비소폐수에서의 비소 제거 실험을 실시했다. 소성과 중탕 과정을 거쳐 $Ca^{2+}$와 $Al^{3+}$이 mainlayer를 이루고 있으며, $SO_4^{2-}$가 interlayer에 삽입되어 있는 CaAl-monosulfate와 $Ca^{2+}$와 $Al^{3+}$가 column형태의 구조로, $SO_4^{2-}$가 channel형태로 구성되어 있는 CaAl-ettringite를 합성했다. 순수하게 합성된 시료로 1.335 mmol/L As(V) 농도의 수용액을 각각 0.054 mmol/L As(V)와 0.300 mmol/L As(V)까지 감소시켰다. PXRD와 FESEM을 이용하여 반응 전 후의 시료 결정 구조와 상 분석을 행함으로써 이온교환에 의해 인공비소폐수의 비소가 제거 된 것을 알 수 있었다.
