폐 석탄광산에서 가장 큰 환경문제는 산성광산배수가 유출되어 주변 하천수의 pH를 낮추고 철/알루미늄 수산화물을 하천바닥에 침전시키며 주변 토양을 오염시키는 것이다. 삼봉광산에서 물시료와 침전물 시료는 갱구 입구에서 채취하였다. 채취한 갱내수의 pH 값의 범위는 겨울에 7.24-7.94이며, 여름에 3.87-5.73이다. 전기전도도는 갱내수가 유입되는 하천에서 $432-897{\mu}S/cm$이다. 갱내수의 Mg, Al, Ca, Mn의 최고 농도값은 각각 15.50, 4.56, 85.30, 12.76 mg/L이다. 적갈색의 침전물은 겨울에는 Munsell color 10R-5YR 정도로 주구성광물은 2-line 페리하이드라이트이며, 여름에는 2.5YR-5Y의 범위로 주구성광물은 슈워트마나이트이다. 주사전자현미경 관찰 결과 침전물은 막대형 혹은 원통형이거나, $0.1-0.5{\mu}m$의 구균형이나 구형을 나타내고 있다.

Fine suspended solids from mine drainage draw attentions due to their potential adverse influences on the water quality, such as increasing turbidity and degrading aesthetic landscape. Currently, sand filter beds are adapted in some mine drainage treating systems. However, more efficient system is in demand, as the existing sand beds reveal some problems, such as frequent maintenance intervals. Various filtering mediums including fly ash, mine tailing aggregates and the sand were tested for improving the current system, using column experimental set-up. Mine drainage samples were collected from the current treating systems in the abandoned H coal mine. The experiment was run for 7 days. Suspended solids recorded as 100.9 mg/L and the value exceeds the current standard, 30 mg/L. Sand was proved to still be the optimum medium for the fine suspended solids, compared to fly ash and fly ash + sand. Mine tailing aggregates were placed at the exit of the columns, substituting gravels. The tailing aggregates is made by mine tailings and clay. Sand bed filters can also be improved by mixing granular activated carbon, which was found to be economical and efficient in the batch experiment, conducted at the same time.

강원도에 위치한 D석탄광산에서 발생된 폐광석을 쌓아둔 적치장 사면의 지반공학적$\cdot$환경공학적 측면에서 안정성을 해석하고, 적합한 대 책을 수립하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 적치장에서 하천으로 유입되는 침출수에 대한 수질검사를 통해 폐광석 적치장이 산성 광산배수(AMD)를 발생시키고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 폐광석 적치장의 사면안정 해석을 위하여 SLOPILE 프로그램을 이용하여 건기시, 평상시, 우기시 에 대하여 원호활동 해석을 실시하였다. 또한, 사면의 규모가 대규모인 점을 고려하여 사면 선단부분을 무한사면으로 가정한 평면파괴 해석도 실시하였다 원호활동해석에서 우기시 사면의 안전율이 0.78로 사면의 선단부에서 파괴가 발생하고, 평면파괴해석의 결과 우기시 활동깊이 4m 이하부터 사면의 안전율이 1이하로 파괴의 가능성을 잠재하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 비점오염 형태의 ADM 발생 저감과 사면 안정성 확보라는 측면에서 복합 대응이 가능한 뒷채움재로 폐콘크리트를 활용한 붕괴방치벽체(옹벽) 설치가 제안되었다.

In this study, to stabilize the heavy metal in the contaminated soils, the column leaching test based on rainfall and pH value was performed by using coal mine drainage sludge(CMDS): which was generated during electrical purification of abandoned coal mine wastewater. Four types of testing column were used in this study. That were the CMDS and the heavy metal contaminated soils well mixed in 0 wt%, 1 wt%, 3 wt% and 3 wt% layered column. According to the investigation, when the influent pH was $5.5{\sim}6.2$, there were no heavy metal elution at all conditions, and when the influent pH was $3{\sim}3.3$, the order of Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr elution concentration was 3 wt% M(mixed)<3 wt% S(separation)<1 wt% M<0 wt% and the average elution concentration was quite low, the value was 0.005 mg/L. Therefore, CMDS can used as new stabilizer of the heavy metal in the contaminated soils.

Soil aggregation begins with flocculation of clay particles triggered by interfacial reactions of polyvalent cation such as Ca²⁺ and Fe³⁺, and they are also known as important elements to control the mobility of arsenic in soil environment. The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of CMDS (coal mine drainage sludge) for soil loss reduction and stabilization of arsenic-contaminated soil in a 37% sloped farmland under rainfall simulation. The amount of soil loss decreased by 43% when CMDS was applied, and this result was not significantly different from the case of limestone application, which yielded 46% decrease of soil loss. However, the relative amount of dispersed clay particles in the sediment CMDS-applied soil was 10% lower than that of limestone-applied soil, suggesting CMDS is more effective than limestone in inducing soil aggregation. The concentrations of bioavailable arsenic in CMDS amended soil decreased by 46%~78%, which was lower than the amount in limestone amended soil. Therefore, CMDS can be used as an effective amendment material to reduce soil loss and stabilize arsenic in sloped farmland areas.

이 연구는 산성광산배수(AMD, Acid Mine Drainage)를 대상으로 트리폴리인산나트륨의 적용을 평가한다. 경북에 위치한 문경 석탄탄광으로부터 발생한 AMD와 트리폴리인산나트륨의 회분식 반응실험에서 얻어진 결과에 근거하면, AMD를 처리하기 위한 트리폴리인산나트륨의 최적주입량은 $4.7{\times}10^{-3}mole$이었다. $Ca^{2+}$의 경우 농도가 $16.4mg/{\ell}$에서 처리 후 $5.6mg/{\ell}$로 감소하여 제거율은 65.9%이고, $Fe^{3+}$의 경우 농도가 $3.7mg/{\ell}$에서 처리 후 $0.02mg/{\ell}$로 감소하여 제거율은 99.5%이다. 그러나 $SO{_4}^{2-}$의 경우 농도가 $526.8mg/{\ell}$에서 $566.5mg/{\ell}$ 범위로 증가나 감소경향이 나타나지 않았다. 트리폴리인산나트륨을 사용한 결과, AMD 내 $Na^+$의 농도는 $549.8mg/{\ell}{\sim}599.3mg/{\ell}$이고 정인산염은 $6.82mg/{\ell}{\sim}7.60mg/{\ell}$였다. 트리폴리인산나트륨과 AMD의 반응에서 발생한 침전물을 SEM, XRF, XRD로 분석한 결과 침전물의 형태는 인회석${\gg}{\beta}$-인산삼칼슘>산화철$(Fe(OH)_3)$인 것으로 판단된다. 결과적으로 트리폴리인산염의 사용은 AMD에서 $Fe^{3+}$, $Ca^{2+}$ 제거와 pH 완충에 있어서 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

Fine suspended solids from coal mine drainage were treated in the treating plant, using two different pilot-scale inclined clarifiers: radial and lamella types. Suspended solids in the mine drainage were monitored along with other geochemical factors, and metal contents. Fe and Mn are the main chemical components in the drainage, which exist predominantly as total metal forms, whereas dissolved portion is negligible. The raw mine drainage is subject to physical and chemical treatment using $CaCO_3$ and NaOH, therefore the suspended solids are thought to be composed of Fe and Mn precipitates, possibly $Fe(OH)_3$, along with carbonate precipitates. The elemental composition of precipitates are confirmed by SEM-EDS analysis. As nearly all the dissolved ions were precipitated in the primary process by $CaCO_3$, no further aeration or prolonged oxygenation are of necessity in this plant. Adoption of inclined clarifier proved to be effective in treating fine suspended solids in the current plant. Successful application of the inclined clarifier will also be beneficial to improve the current treating process by excluding the current application of chemical agent in the first stage. The final effluents from the pilot plant meet the national standards and the low dissolved Fe and Mn contents are expected not to cause secondary precipitation after discharge.

In this research, equilibrium of adsorption and kinetics of As(V) removal were investigated. The coal mine drainage sludge(CMDS) was used as adsorbent. To find out the physical and chemical properties of CMDS, XRD (X-ray diffraction), XRF (X-ray fluorescence spectrometer) analysis were carried out. The CMDS was consist of 70% of goethite and 30% of calcite. From the results, an adsorption mechanism of As(V) with CMDS was dominated by iron oxides. Langmuir adsorption isotherm model was fitted well more than Freundlich isotherm adsorption model. Adsorption capacities of CMDS 1 was not different with CMDS 2 on aspect of amounts of arsenic adsorbed. The maximum adsorption amount of two CMDS were respectively 40.816, 39.682 mg/g. However, the kinetic of two CMDS was different. The kinetic was followed pseudo second order model than pseudo first order model. Concentrations of arsenic in all segments of the polymer in CMDS 2 does not have a constant value, but the rate was greater than the value of CMDS 1. Therefore, CMDS 2, which is containing polymer, is more effective for adsorbent to remove As(V).

Possibility of the usage of sludge generated in coal mine drainage treatments as a briquette additive was investigated by the combination of industrial, elemental, and combustion experiments. A series of briquettes having 2% and 6% of sludge were used for the experiments. Compared to the control sample, our results show that all experimental values for the briquettes are very similar. In particular, it is worthy to note that there is no obvious difference in calorific values for the briquettes containing 2% or 6% of sludge. The calorific values are 4,250~4,360 kcal/kg, 4,240~4,250 kcal/kg, 4,180~4,210 kcal/kg, and 4,270~4,360 kcal/kg for the control sample, briquette containing 6% of Hambaek sludge, briquette containing 6% of Hamtae sludge, and briquette containing 2% of Hambaek sludge, respectively. Results of ash fusion temperature show that the temperature is greater than $1,550^{\circ}C$ for the control sample. However, the temperature for the briquettes with 6% of Hambaek sludge and 2% of Hambaek or Hamtae sludge is $1,510^{\circ}C$. For a briquette containing 6% of Hamtae sludge, the temperature of ash fusion is $1,530^{\circ}C$. After combustion, environmental impacts of the briquettes with sludge were tested. Little environmental influence was observed for the combusted briquettes with sludge.
