초록

본 연구에서는 오염된 자갈을 정화하기 위해서 새로운 방식의 건식세척장치를 제작하여 석유계총탄화수소(TPH) 및 산화철의 저감 성능을 알아보았다. 기존 연구에서는 회분식 처리 방식이 적용되었으나, 본 연구에서는 정화 성능 및 처리 효율 향상을 위하여 연속식 처리 방식을 적용하였다. 또한 오염자갈의 전처리를 위하여 건조기 및 선별기를 적용하였다. 본 실험에서는 총 12개의 노즐을 통해 약 $5-6kg/cm^2$의 압력으로 20-30분 동안 연마재를 자갈에 분사하여 석유계총탄화수소(TPH)와 산화철의 저감 성능을 확인하였다. 실험결과 석유계총탄화수소(TPH)와 산화철 모두 약 80-90%의 높은 처리효율을 나타냈다. 본 연구에서는 향후 추가 연구를 통해 정화효율을 높일 수 있는 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

This study proposes a newly developed dry washing method for removing pollutants such as total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) and oxidized iron from the surface of ballast gravel. A batch-type dry washing method showed a good performance in a previous study. In this study, a continuous-type dry washing system, instead of a batch-type system, was prepared to improve the efficiency of the system. A drier and a separator were also applied to this system as pre-treatment process, and the performance of this system was evaluated. In this experiment, blasting media was blasted on the polluted gravels through 12 nozzles by a pressure of $5-6kg/cm^2$ for 20-30 mins to remove TPH and oxidized iron. It was found to be possible to remove 80-90% of TPH and oxidized iron by using this system. Several ways to improve the performance were suggested in this study.
