초록

본 연구는 AgX (Ag-함침 X zeolite)에 의해 고방사성해수폐액 (HSW)의 발생초기에 함유되어 있는 고방사성 요오드($^{131}I$)의 흡착, 제거를 목표로 수행하였다. AgX에 의한 I의 흡착 (AgX-I 흡착)은 AgX 내 Ag-함침농도가 증가할수록 증가하며, 함침농도 30wt% 정도가 적당하였다. AgX (Ag-함침 약 30~35wt%)로부터 Ag의 침출농도는 해수폐액에 함유되어 있는 chloride 이온에 의한 AgCl 침전 등으로 증류수보다 덜 침출 (<1 mg/L) 되었다. AgX-I 흡착은 초기 I 농도 0.01~10 mg/L의 경우 m/V(흡착제량/용액부피의 비)=2.5 g/L에서 99% 이상 흡착제거 되어 I의 효율적 제거가 가능함을 알 수 있다. AgX-I 흡착제거는 해수폐액 보다는 증류수에서 수행하는 것이 효과적이고, 온도의 영향은 미미한 것 같으며, 흡착평형등온선은 Languir 보다는 Freundlich 등온선으로 표현하는 것이 양호하였다. 한편 AgX-I 흡착속도는 유사 2차 속도식을 만족하고 있으며, 속도상수 ($k_2$)는 $C_i$ 증가에 따라 감소하고 있지만, m/V 비 및 온도 증가에 따라서는 증가하고 있다. 이때 흡착 활성화에너지는 약 6.3 kJ/mol 로 AgX-I 흡착은 약한 결합형태의 물리적흡착이 지배적일 것으로 보인다. 그리고 열역학적 매개변수를 평가(음수 값의 Gibbs 자유에너지 및 양수 값의 엔탈피)에 의해 AgX-I 흡착이 자발반응(정반응)의 흡열반응이며, 고온에서 반응이 양호함을 나타내었다.

This study aimed to the adsorption-removal of high- radioactive iodide (I) contained in the initially generated high-radioactive seawater waste (HSW), with the use of AgX (Ag-impregnated X zeolite). Adsorption of I by AgX (hereafter denoted as AgX-I adsorption) was increased by increasing the Ag-impregnated concentration in AgX, and its concentration was suitable at about 30 wt%. Because of AgCl precipitation by chloride ions contained in seawater waste, the leaching yields of Ag from AgX (Ag-impregnated concentration : about 30~35 wt%) was less than those in distilled water (< 1 mg/L). AgX-I adsorption was above 99% in the initial iodide concentration ($C_i$) of 0.01~10 mg/L at m/V (ratio of weight of adsorbent to solution volume)=2.5 g/L. This shows that efficient removal of I is possible. AgX-I adsorption was found to be more effective in distilled water than in seawater waste, and the influence of solution temperature was insignificant. Ag-I adsorption was better described by a Freundlich isotherm rather than a Langmuir isotherm. AgX-I adsorption kinetics can be expressed by a pseudo-second order rate equation. The adsorption rate constants ($k_2$) decreased by increasing $C_i$, and conversely increased by increasing the ratio of m/V and the solution temperature. This time, the activation energy of AgX-I adsorption was about 6.3 kJ/mol. This suggests that AgX-I adsorption is dominated by physical adsorption with weaker bonds. The evaluation of thermodynamic parameters (a negative Gibbs free energy and a positive Enthalpy) indicates that AgX-I adsorption is a spontaneous reaction (forward reaction), and an endothermic reaction indicating that higher temperatures are favored.
