This study was investigated the environment of waste shells such as oyster, cockle and paphia on southern shore in korea and established the recycling method to prevent the environmental pollution, etc. The waste shells were reclaimed at public shore illegally or leaved on the surroundings of shore. The origin mechanism, XRD and TG-DTA analyses were performed to effective recycling of waste shells, and the optimal recycling method was preparation of the calcium carbonate. In this work, calcium carbonate and lime fertilizer of granular shape were prepared using the waste shell.

Coastal shellfish in the shallow aquaculture waters form carbon contained shells as they grow. The existing researches showed that carbon flux can be improved, if the shells are re-treated by the carbon stored methods. In the present study, firstly, the mechanism and the quantitative flux of carbon dioxide in the shellfish individual have been analyzed. The re-treated methods of the useful by-product in the shellfish aquaculture, shells, have been reviewed. Finally, the potential effects to reduce the greenhouse gas has been suggested, if the shells can be properly re-treated.

Inorganic shell powder waste was added to recycled polypropylene(COPP), and its effect on the mechanical properties and flammability was investigated. Compatibilizer(Polytail H) was added to improve mechanical properties of COPP/shell composites. Also three different flame retardants($Al_2O_3$, DBDPO, $Sb_2O_3$) were added to improve flammability. Experimental results indicated that addition of compatibilizer resulted in an improved mechanical properties, and especially impact strength approached that of 100 wt% COPP. Addition of flame retardant did not result in decreased mechanical properties. UL-94 flammability test indicated that COPP/shell composite did not show good flame retardancy, however, in the case of COPP/shell composites containing flame retardant showed good flammability. flammability was found $Sb_2O_3>Al_2O_3>DBDPO$ in this order. Finally, UL-94 V-0 grade was found in COPP/shell composite with $Al_2O_3$, compatibilizer, and 40 wt% shell, and COPP/shell composites with $Sb_2O_3$.

The objective of this study was to investigate the proper conditions of calcination and calcium extraction from powdered oyster shell. The physical characteristics such as particle size distribution, surface morphology, and thermal gravity were examined. The following result were obtained. As the powdered oyster shell was ignited in high temperature of $650^{\circ}C$ to $950^{\circ}C$, the calcination reactions was effectively progressed. The amount of weight loss during calcination would be matched with the generation of carbon dioxide gas. In the calcination of powdered oyster shell, the amount of weight loss increased according to the increased of calcination temperature and the decrease of mean particle size. It was founded that the proper temperature and retention time of calcination was $850^{\circ}C$ and 40 minute. In the extraction of calcium into liquid form using acid addition, the calcination oyster shell was more effective than the non-calcinated shell. The liquid calcium extraction technique using the calcinated oyster shell needed more researches considering cost evaluation.

Oysters have been continuously produced from all around the world including South Korea every year. The oyster shell by-products accompanied by the oysters have caused the social and environmental problems due to the absence of any method or technique to deal with the by-products. In order to solve those problems, diverse researches and environmental friendly methods using the oyster shells are in development by now due to the possibility as cheap materials. In this review, we discuss the worldwide status of oyster shells and investigate the physical and chemical characteristics of the oyster shells. In addition, we discuss the recent trends about the sustainable methods to utilize the oyster shells.

현재 남해안 굴양식산업은 어업인들의 중요한 소득원이 되고 있으나, 굴양식장에서 발생되는 굴패각은 처리곤란 및 악취발생으로 인해 또 다른 해양오염원으로 그 문제성이 심각하게 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 굴양식장에서 연간 약 28~30만여톤의 굴패각이 발생되고 있으며, 그 중 10~20%는 종패부착용이나 비료로 재활용되고 있고, 80~90%는 매립되거나 야적 방치된다고 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 굴패각을 재활용하고자 굴껍질의 성분분석을 실시하여 나노고분자세라믹 코팅제의 세라믹 소재로써의 적용 가능성여부를 확인하였고, 경기도 P정수장 내 여과지 콘크리트 벽면에 코팅처리하여 그 성능을 확인하였다. 그 결과 패각의 굴껍질은 90%이상이 탄산칼슘($CaCO_3$)로 이루어져 있었으며, 굴껍질을 재활용한 나노고분자세라믹 코팅제는 pH 7.5~8.5로서 일반수도를 측정한 pH 7.3~7.8과 유사한 결과를 보였다. 또한, 나노고분자세라믹 코팅제의 콘크리트 벽면에 대한 부착강도는 한국산업규격에 제시된 폴리머의 방수재료 부착강도인 8~10(kg.f/$cm^2$)이상의 값이 나타남에 따라 패각의 굴껍질을 재활용한 나노고분자세라믹 코팅제의 경기도 P정수장 내 여과지 콘크리트 벽면 코팅제로써 적용이 가능한 것으로 확인 되었다.

국내 해안에는 양식업에서 부산물로 다량 발생되는 굴, 홍합, 대합 등의 패각들이 해안에 야적되어 연안어장의 오염, 공유수면 관리상의 지장, 자연경관의 훼손 및 보건 위생상의 문제 등으로 환경오염을 초래하고 있다(정종현 등, 1998). 현재 폐 패각의 총발생량은 355,000톤 정도이며, 이 중 종묘채묘용으로 재사용되는 양을 제외하면, 토지개량제로서의 이용 등을 포함한 재활용율은 약 30%정도로 낮은 실정이다. (굴수협전국조합, 1999). 더구나 처리비용이 비싸기 때문에 발생되는 폐 패각은 대부분 방치되고 있는 실정이다. (중략)

Approximately 240,000 tons of waste shells are produced annually in the south and west coast of South Korea. Some of these waste shells (oyster, cockle) are recycled as seeding collector and fertilizer, but most are dumped illegally near the coast. One of the alternative solutions that can economically utilize a large amount of these waste shells is to apply them to the production of construction materials. In this research, the basic physical properties of waste shells such as oyster, cockle, clam, manila clam were investigated, and were used to prepare cement mortar with a 25% replacement ratio of sand. According to the results, the 28 day compressive strength of cement mortar with cockle and manila clam shells was similar to that of plain cement mortar. The compressive strength decreased by about 18% when clam was used. However, the cement mortar with oyster shell showed about a 35% reduction in 28-day compressive strength, and two times the absorption capacity of plain cement mortar. The reduction in compressive strength and the increase in absorption capacity were mostly associated with the porous nature of the oyster shell.

연안역 굴양식장에서 발생하여 폐기물로 분류되어 불법으로 버려지는 굴패각을 파쇄하여 혼합한 모르타르 혼합토의 특성을 규명하고자 압축강도 시험을 포함한 다양한 실내시험을 수행하였다. 압축강도시험을 위하여 준비한 모르타르 공시체는 시멘트, 물, 모래 및 굴패각을 다양한 배합비로 혼합하여 제작하였다. 강도시험결과에 따르면 분쇄한 굴패각의 비율이 최대 모래중량의 40%까지 혼합한 경우에도 굴패각을 섞지 않은 일반 모르타르 혼합토에 비하여 압축강도가 크게 감소하지 않았다. 본 연구에서 수행한 압축강도실험을 분석한 결과, 다양한 크기로 파쇄한 굴패각을 적절한 혼합비의 모래 및 시멘트와 배합하여 사용한다면 건설재료로서의 재활용 가능성이 충분한 것으로 판단되었다.
