Abstract

Portland cement used as binding material in combination of ferrous iron for reductive dechlorination of chlorinated organics is already widely studied topic by several researchers. However there is no clear evidence about the component solely responsible in cement for trichloroethylene (TCE) dechlorination. Many researchers suspect that the ettringite, monosulfate phases associated with hydration of cement are responsible active agents for TCE dechlorination. This study deals with synthesizing different pure crystalline minerals like ettringite and monosulfate phases of cement hydration and check individual phase's TCE dechlorinating capacity in combination with ferrous iron. The results indicated that the synthesized minerals showed no reduction capacity for TCE. The findings in the present study is significant as it shows that ettringite and monosulfate phases which were suspected minerals by previous researchers for TCE dechlorination are not reactive. Hence it is suspected that some other mineral or mineral form in cement phase could be responsible for TCE degradation.

고화제로 사용되는 포틀랜드 시멘트와 2가철을 이용하여 염소계 유기화합물을 탈염소화 시키는 기술은 많은 연구로부터 알려져 왔다. 하지만 TCE (trichloroethylene)의 탈염소화에 관계하는 명확한 유효물질 및 기작 규명은 요원한 상태이다. 많은 연구에서 ettringite와 monosulfate와 같은 시멘트 수화물질이 TCE의 탈염소화 반응에 관여할 가능성을 보고한 바 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 TCE의 탈염소화 반응에 유효물질로 예상 되어왔던 ettringite와 monosulfate를 별도로 합성하여, TCE 제거 실험을 수행함으로서 기존 시멘트/2가철을 사용한 TCE 분해제거에 관계하는 명확한 유효물질 및 기작을 규명 하고자 하였다. 실험결과, $Fe^{3+}$ 및 $Al^{3+}$로 구성된 ettringite, monosulfate 합성에 성공하였고, 이후 2가철을 첨가하여 TCE 분해실험에서 합성물의 분해능을 확인하였지만 뚜렷한 제거가 나타나지 않았다. 이는 기존문헌의 예상과는 상반된 결과를 나타냈으며, 실험결과를 통해 시멘트/2가철을 사용한 TCE 제거 실험의 분해기작을 예상할 수 있었다. 예상 되는 분해기작으로는 ettringite 및 monosulfate 외의 시멘트 수화물에 의한 것과 C3A외의 시멘트 클링커 화합물 그리고 시멘트 내 trace metal에 의한 영향일 것으로 추측하였다.
