다양한 산업활동에 의하여 발생하는 6가 크롬 (Cr(Ⅵ))은 대표적인 토양 및 지하수 오염물질이다. Cr(Ⅵ)은 3가크롬(Cr(III))로의 환원에 의한 침전반응으로 이동성이 저하된다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 고형화/안정화 공정에 환원.분해 반응을 추가한 2가철 기반 분해성 고형화/안정화(Degradative Solidification/Stabilization)공정에 의한 Cr(Ⅵ) 처리 특성을 고찰하였다. 회분식 실험결과 cemen/Fe(II) system내에 Cr(Ⅵ)은 환원반응 뿐만 아니라 cement에 의한 침전에 의해서도 제거됨이 밝혀졌다. Cr(Ⅵ)의 제거속도는 Fe(II)의 반응당량에 비례하는 것으로 보여진 반면, cement/solution ratio에 따른 Cr(Ⅵ) 제거동역학의 차이는 그다지 크지 않았다

산화물 형태 사용후핵연료의 효율적 처분 혹은 재활용을 위한 연구 가운데, 고온의 LiCl 용융염 중에서 전해환원하여 금속으로 환원시킨 후, 환원된 금속을 고온의 LiCl-KCl 용융염에서 전해정련하는 연구가 국내외적으로 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 전해환원을 위해 일정 농도 $Li_2O$가 LiCl 용융염에 첨가되며 $Li_2O$ 농도가 높으면 반응 재질의 부식성이 크게 증가하므로 일반적으로 우라늄 산화물은 1wt% 이하의 $Li_2O$ 농도에서 전해환원 된다. 우라늄 산화물의 전해환원 전위는 $Li_2O$의 전해환원 전위 보다 표준 상태를 기준으로 공정온도인 650 $^{\circ}C$ 에서 약 70 mV 정도 낮기 때문에 전해환원 과정에서 $Li_2O$ 의 환원으로 Li 금속이 생성될 가능성이 있으며 우라늄 산화물은 대부분 직접 전해환원 되지만 일부 Li에 의해 화학적으로 환원되기도 한다. 전해환원 공정에서 환원되지 않은 희토류 산화물은 전해정련 공정에서 $UCl_3$와 반응하여 $UO_2$를 생성시켜 공정 효율을 떨어뜨린다. 따라서 전해환원 공정에서 가능하연 최대한 희토류 산화물을 금속으로 환원시키는 조건을 찾아내는 것이 바람직하고 이를 위해서 우선 전해환원 공정에서 희토류 산화물의 화학적 거동의 이해가 요구된다. 본 연구에서 열역학적 검토를 통하여 희토류 산화물의 환원 조건을 조사한 결과 희토류 산화물은 매운 낮은 $Li_2O$ 농도에서 Li에 의해 환원되고, 1wt% 이하의 $Li_2O$ 농도에서는 Sc와 Lu의 산화물이 $Li_2O$와 복합산화물을 형성하고 이들 복합산화물은 Li에 의해 환원되지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 희토류 원소 별로 희토류 원소 산화물의 Li에 의한 환원 조건으로서 평형상태에서의 $Li_2O$ 농도 즉 환원 임계 $Li_2O$ 농도를 실험적으로 측정하였으며 1wt% $Li_2O$ 농도 이하에서 열역학적 해석과 동일하게 Sc와 Lu만이 복합산화물을 형성하여 Li에 의해 직접환원 되지 않는 것으로 관찰되었다.

Reductive reactivity of zero-valent iron nanoparticles was investigated for removal of nitrate-nitrogen which is considered one of the major water pollutants. To elucidate the difference in reactivity between preparation methods, iron nanoparticles were synthesized respectively from microemulsion and aqueous solution of ferric ions. Iron nanoparticles prepared from microemulsion were deposited on aluminum by electrophoretic method, and their reaction kinetics was compared to that of the same nanoparticles suspended in aqueous batch reaction. With an approximation of pseudo-first-order reaction, rate constants for suspended nanoparticles prepared from microemulsion and dilute aqueous solution were $3.49{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$ and $1.40{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$, respectively. Iron nanoparticles supported on aluminum showed ca. 30% less reaction rate in comparison with the identical nanoparticles in suspended state. However, supported nanoparticles showed the superior effectiveness in terms of nitrate-nitrogen removal per zero-valent iron input especially when excess amounts of nitrates were present. Iron nanoparticles deposited on aluminum maintained reductive reactivity for more than 3 hours, and produced nitrogen gas as a final reduction product of nitrate-nitrogen.

Pd/Cu/Alumina 촉매와 포름산을 이용한 질산성질소의 환원반응에 수체에 공존하는 여러 이온들이 영향을 줄 수 있다. 조사대상 이온 중 염소이온이 가장 부정적인 영향을 주었으며, $PO_4^{3-}$가 가장 적은 영향을 미쳤다. 한편 촉매를 재사용한 경우 질산염 환원반응은 새 촉매를 사용하였을 때 비해 약 80%의 성능을 나타내었다.

Zevo-valent iron (ZVI) has been widely used in permeable reactive barriers for reducing organic contaminants, such as trichloroethylene (TCE). The rapid reaction time, however, leads to decrease in reactivity and availability of ZVI. Shewanella algae BrY, a strain of dissimilatory iron reducing bacteria, can reduce the oxidized Fe (III) to Fe (II) and reduced Fe (II) can be reused to reduce the contaminant. The effect of Shewanella algae BrY on the reduction of the oxidized ZVI column and further TCE removal in the contaminated groundwater were studied at different flow rates and TCE input concentrations in this study. High input concentration of TCE and flow rate increase the amount of input contaminant and make to lower the effect of reduction by Shewanella algae BrY. Specially, the fast flow rate inhibits the direct contact and implantation on the surface of iron. The reduction of oxidized iron reactive barrier by Shewanella algae BrY can decrease the decreation of duration of PRBs by the precipitation of oxidized iron produced by dechlorination of TCE.

This research investigates the importance of the microbial metabolic pathways such as denitrification, iron reduction, and methanogenesis, in the degradation of organic matters of the sediments. There are statistically significant differences( P < 0.05) in the rates of denitrification, iron reduction, and methanogenesis according to the location: Site A has no plant, Site B is dominated by Scirpus, and Site C is dominated by Phragmites. Among them, Site C showed different methanogenesis rate depending on the sediments depth. The organic matter content increased from Site A to Site C. Site A had the smallest organic matter content whereas it showed the largest denitrification rate and iron reduction rate. Site C had the largest methanogenesis rate. Denitrification is the dominant pathways based on the assumption that anaerobic degradation of organic matter is mainly carried out through denitrification, iron reduction, and methanogenesis.

The removal of chromate from aqueous solution using finely ground pyrite and biotite was investigated by batch experiments and the kinetics and the mechanism of chromate reduction were discussed. The chromate reduction by pyrite was about hundred times faster than that by biotite and was also faster at pH 3 than at pH 4. When pyrite was used, more than 90% of initial chromate was reduced within four hours at pH 4 and within 40 min. at pH 3. However, more than 400 hours was taken for the reduction of 90% of initial chromate by biotite. The results indicate that the rate of chromate reduction was strongly depending on the amount of Fe(II) in the minerals and on the dissolution rate of Fe(II) from the minerals. The reduction of chromate at pH 4 resulted in the precipitation of (Cr, Fe)(OH))$_3$$_{ (s)}$, which is believed to have limited the concentrations of dissolved Cr(III) and Fe(III) to less than expected values. When biotite was used, amounts of decreased Fe(II) and reduced Cr(Ⅵ) did not show stoichiometric relationship, which implying there was not only chromate reduction by ferrous ions in the acidic solution but also heterogeneous reduction of ferric ions by the structural ferrous iron in biotite. However, the results from a series of the experiments using Pyrite showed that concentrations of the decreased Fe(II) and the reduced Cr(Ⅵ) were close to the stoichiometric ratio of 3:1. It was because the oxidation of pyrite rapidly created ferrous ions even in oxygenated solutions and the chromate reduction by the ferrous ions was significantly faster than ferrous ion oxygenation.

The present paper was carried out to investigate the inhibition of carcinogenic N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) formation by Maillard reactiion products and nondialyzable melanoidins, obtiane dfrom the glucoseamino acids(Lys, Gly, Arg, His) model systems under different pH conditions(pH 1.2, 4.2 and 6.0). Maillard raction products and nondialyzable melanoidins, produced from the 4 model systems, had a inhibitory action of N-nitrosodimethylamine formation. The inhibitiondegree by the nondialyzable mealanoidins. at pH 1.2 was similar to that at pH 4.2 and that by ascorbic acid at pH 1.2 . Inhibitory action of N-nitrosodimehylamine formation by the reduced Maillard reaction products and nondialyzable melanoidins were lower than that of original samples. Accordingly, it is assumed that the inhibition of N-nitrosodimehtylamine formation of Maillard reaction products is due to their reducing powers.
