본 연구에서는 기존 매립이나 지반보강재로 사용되던 소각재 용융슬래그를 고부가가치 수처리 여재로 활용하기 위하여 형광성 박테리아를 통한 Microtox 생물검정법으로 독성을 평가하였다. 소각재 용융슬래그의 독성평가 대조군으로는 기존의 수처리 여재인 입상활성탄(석탄계/야자계/목탄계), PP PE펠렛(Poly-Propylene Poly-Ethylene pallet), 표준여과사를 비교하였으며, 시료의 용출시험은 US EPA에서 제안한 TCLP 방법을 사용하였다. Microtox Acute Toxicity 평가 결과, 독성순위는 석탄계 입상 활성탄, 소각재 용융슬래그, 목탄계 입상활성탄, 야자계 입상활성탄, 표준여과사, PP PE 순으로 나타났으며, 실험에 사용된 모든 수처리 여재들은 급성독성을 고려하지 않는 무독성으로 나타났다. 따라서 소각재 용융슬래그가 수처리를 목적으로 수체에 편입시켜도 기존의 수처리 여재들과 비교할 때 수환경에 미치는 영향은 미미할 것으로 판단된다.

With the advance of industrialization and urbanization, a lot of waste has been discharged and treated by incineration. But fly and bottom ashes are generated in this process. In addition, the treatment method to recycle sewage sludge and melting slag is required to manage these wastes. The objective of this research was to prepare of multi-functional brick which were made from MSWI (Municipal solid wastes incinerator) fly ash, sewage sludge and slag. The bricks were made by mixing raw materials and then drying for 24 hours. Next, they were dried for 24 hours at $160^{\circ}C$ and fired for 2 hours. Calcination temperature was changed to discuss the effect of temperature from $1,080^{\circ}C$ to $1,130^{\circ}C$. Compressive strength of a brick was creased with the increase of temperature. To increase mixing ratio of fly ash and slag reduce the compressive strength the optimal condition was the mixing ratio of fly ash : melting slag : sewage sludge : clay as 10 : 20 : 5 : 65 and $1,150^{\circ}C$ of calcination temperature. Compressive strength was obtained as about 41 MPa at this condition.

This study is a fundamental research to test the applicability of powdered MSWI(Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator) ash melted slag as a seed Crystal for crystallization reaction. Powdered ash melted slag was melted at $1100^{\circ}C$ and ground to lesser than 0.35mm. According to the result of the tests, calcium, enough for crystallization reaction, was eluted from powdered ash melted slag. Moreover, sample(Phosphorus concentration is under 10 mg/L), more than 90% of Phosphorus can be removed. So we rectify the Phosphorus concentration to 100 mg/L. Alkalinity, being well known that it interferes crystallization reaction, effect was studied for synthetic solution(100 mg/L initial Phosphorus concentration, 50 mg/L calcium, pH 8, 1% powdered ash melted slag dosage). For this result, we know that Phosphorus removal is hindered by alkalinity. In addition, the effect of reaction temperature was performed at the same method. The reaction velocity was increased through raising the reaction temperature.

This study was performed to prove that vitrified slag can be utilized as sound absorbing materials by investigating on heavy metal elution and the properties of sound absorbing rate according to the thickness. The heavy metal elution experiment indicated that heavy metal was not eluted since it was fixed stable in the slag. Vitrified slag generally exhibited a maximum sound absorbing rate around at 600Hz-1kHz and 3kHz in the low and high frequency range, respectively. On the other hand, the absorbing rate increased beyond the range of 7kHz again. The sound absorbing rate varied a little according to the thickness of the material. However, Vitrified slag is likely to the effective as a sound absorbing wall material since it has a sound absorbing rate clover 80% in the low and high frequency region when used as a wall. The results obtained in this study showed that vitrified slag has the recyclable material properties and therefore, highly applicable to sound absorbing materials.

Na-A zeolite were synthesized from melting slag of the incinerated ash by the alkaline activation processes. The experiments were performed in stainless steel vessels, with continuous stirring during the reaction periods. The silica-rich solution, a starting material, which was the waste of crystal growth factory, contains 5.7 wt% SiO₂ and 3.2 wt% Na₂O. And NaAlO₂ was made by the reaction of aluminium dross and NaOH solution and its molar ratios were Na₂O/Al₂O₃= 1.2 and H₂O/Na₂O=9. During the residence time of 7∼8 h at 80℃, the mixing of the silica-rich solution, NaAlO₂ and melting slag yields the production of homogeneous Na-A zeolite. The optimal reactant composition in molar ratio of Na₂O:Al₂O₃:SiO₂ was 1.3∼l.4 : 0.8∼0.9 : 2 and mixing ratio of solution and slag was 1/7∼10 (g/cc). Synthesized Na-A zeolite has cubic form uniformly and its size ranges about 1 ㎛. Ca/sup 2+/ ion exchange capacity of the Na-A was about 180∼210 meq/100g, corresponding approximately 80% to the commercial detergent builder.

Recently photochemical smog has become a serious urban air pollution. And VOC is the major pollutant for it. With the advance of industrialization and urbanization, MSWI fly ash and sewage sludge and melting slag were generated. It is necessary to de-toxificate ashes, because they contain many toxic constituents and probably lead to contaminate the environment. The objective of this research was to prepare multi-functional brick which is able to remove VOCs in ambient air. The bricks were made of MSWI fly ash, sewage sludge and slag. The benzene adsorption experiment by brick was acted to evaluate its adsorptivity. And also photocatalyst material was coated to enhance its adsorptivity and the endurance on the brick. According to the result, the benzene showed 74~96%. The removal efficiency was increased and the breakpoint time was lengthened by coating a brick.

In order to utilize cinder melting slag as a filter media to control the quality of early rainwater, its environmental stability was verified by heavy metal elution experiment and improved by pre-treatment. Possibilities of improving its function as an absorbent was considered. Absorption characteristics of melting slag before and after the pre-treatment were analyzed by heavy metal equilibrium and stationary-phase column experiments, which in turn were analyzed by comparison experiment with activated carbon. As a result of heavy metal elution experiment, every metal item existed in a much lower amount than the criteria or was not detected, implying that there is no problem recycling it. Absorption equilibrium experiment showed that the time for pre-treatment melting slag to reach the equilibrium was reduced, while the absorbed amount was greatly increased. Stationary-phase column experiment assures us that the elimination rate was not changed much by influx rate, pH and the change in packing volume rate, indicating that this melting slag can be used not only as a filter media to control the quality of early rainwater but also in many areas of water-processing.
