본 연구에서는 고염/고방사성 폐액 내 함유된 주요 고방사성핵종인 Cs 제거를 목적으로 고효율의 복합 흡착제(potassium cobalt ferrocyanide (PCFC)-loaded chabazite (CHA)) 합성 및 이의 적용성을 평가하였다. 복합 흡착제는 Cs을 비롯한 다른 입자를 수용할 수 있는 CHA를 지지체로 선정하였으며, $CoCl_2$ 및 $K_4Fe(CN)_6$ 용액의 단계적인 함침/침전을 통해 PCFC를 CHA 세공 내에 고정화함으로써 합성하였다. 복합 흡착제의 합성 시 평균 입자크기가 $10{\mu}m$ 이상의 CHA를 지지체로 사용할 경우, PCFC 입자는 안정적인 형태로 고정화되었다. 또한, 합성 시 복합 흡착제의 정제를 증가시키는 세척 방법을 최적화함으로써, 복합 흡착제의 물리적 안정성이 향상되었다. 최적의 합성법을 통해 얻은 복합 흡착제에 의한 Cs 흡착 시, 담수(무염조건) 및 해수(고염 조건)에서 모두 빠른 흡착 속도를 보였으며, 염 농도와 무관하게 비교적 높은 분배계수 값($10^4mL{\cdot}g^{-1}$ 이상)을 나타내었다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서 합성한 복합 흡착제는 CHA 및 PCFC가 각각 가지고 있는 물리적 안정성과 Cs에 높은 선택성 등을 고려하여 촤적화한 소재이며, 고염/고방사성폐액에 함유되어 있는 Cs을 고효율로 신속하게 제거할 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

A novel polyacrylamide grafted hydrous ferric oxide adsorbent composite has been synthesized by using glow discharge electrolysis plasma. To optimize the synthesis conditions, the following parameters were examined in detail: applied power, discharge time, post polymerization temperature, post polymerization time, amount of crosslinking agent and hydrous ferric oxide gel added and so on. The adsorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The removal percentage of the adsorbent in Pb(II) solution was examined and the data obtained showed that the adsorbent composite has a high capacity for lead ion. For the use in wastewater treatment, the thermodynamic and kinetic of Pb(II)-capture were also studied. Results indicated that the adsorption reaction was a spontaneous and an endothermic process, and it seems to be obeyed a pseudo-secondorder rate model. Moreover, the adsorption isotherm of Pb(II)-capture is following the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models.

Heavy metals, such as vanadium, are some of the most toxic types of water contaminants. In this study, vanadium was removed using a new composite adsorbent called BAZLSC. The impacts of pH and initial concentration of vanadium(V) on the elimination effectiveness of this metal by using BAZLSC were investigated in the first step of the study. Vanadium removal increased as pH increased to 3-3.5, and initial concentration increased to 60-70 mg/L. The removal efficiency then decreased. Central composite design and response surface methodology were employed to examine experimental data. Initial concentration of V ($mg.L^{-1}$), pH, and dosage of adsorbent (g/L) were the independent factors. Based on RSM, the removal effectiveness of vanadium was 86.36% at the optimum of initial concentration (52.69 mg/L), pH (3.49), and adsorbent dosage (1.71 g/L). Also adsorption isotherm investigations displayed that the Freundlich isotherm could explain vanadium adsorption by BAZLSC better than the Langmuir isotherm. Beside them, desorption studies showed sorption was slightly diminished after six continuous cycles.

해수로 부터 우라늄 분리를 위한 아미드옥심형 섬유복합재료 흡착제를 제조하였고, IR, 팽윤도 실험, CHN 원소분석, SEM 및 흡착능 실험을 통하여 그 특성을 알아보았다. AN-TEGMA 및 AN-TEGMA-DVB 공중합체의 팽윤율과 수율은 가교제의 함량이 증가할 수록 감소하였으며, 수율은 AN-TEGMA 공중합체의 경우 85-92%였고 AN-TEGMA-DVB 공중합체는 82-88%였다. 다공도도가교체의 함량이 증가할 수록 감소하였으며 AN-TEGMA-DVB 공중합체가 AN-TEGMA 공중합체보다 작았다. 또한 전자현미경 관찰 결과 제조한 섬유 복합재료 흡착제의 표면에 흡착제가 고루 분포되어 있는 것을 확인하였고, 흡착제의 최적 첨가량은 40wt%이었다. 섬유복합재료 흡착제의 우라늄 흡착량은 pH 8 부근에서 최대 였으며, 해수의 pH가 8.3임을 감안할 때 해수 우라늄 분리에 적합한 소재 임을 알 수 있었다.

Synthesized hydroxyapatite (Hyd) and Fe-hydroxyapatite (Fe-Hyd) composite were used for the removal of Methylene Blue (MB) from aqueous solutions in this study. The effect of adsorbent amount, pH and initial MB concentration were carried out to investigate in the aqueous solution. The kinetic study shows that the MB adsorption process with Hyd or Fe-Hyd follow pseudo-second order kinetic model. Experimental results are well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Hyd and Fe-Hyd were obtained as 2.90 mg/g and 5.64 mg/g for MB according to Langmuir Isotherm models, respectively. Fe-Hyd composite increased the adsorption capacity of Hyd by 1.95 times that Hyd. It is concluded that Fe-Hyd composite is promising and economical adsorbent for MB removal in the aqueous solution.

Clay based coating with zwitterionic functionality is used to remove cationic and anionic dyes. Adsorbent coating was prepared by the mixing of bentonite clay, acrylic polymer (AP) and polyethylene-diamine (EPI-DMA). Characterization was performed using SEM-EDX, XRF, X-ray mapping and FTIR analyses. The adsorption capacity of ZACC was found to be increased from 59.35 to 255.99 mg/g and from 45.84 to 70.09 mg/g for BG and AR1 dyes, respectively using initial concentration (50-200 ppm). Significant adsorption capacity along with mechanical and chemical stability formulates ZACC as an excellent composite coating for treatment of anionic and cationic dyes from industrial wastewater.

In this study, cherry kernel shell pyrolytic charcoal was synthesized (CKSC) and composite beads were obtained by blending this pyrolytic charcoal with chitosan and Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles (Fe-C-CKSC). Cr(VI) adsorption from aqueous solutions by Fe-C-CKSC composite beads and CKSC adsorbents was studied comparatively. The effects of Cr(VI) initial concentration, adsorbent dosage, contact time, pH and temperature parameters on Cr(VI) adsorption were investigated. Adsorption reached an equilibrium point within 120 min for CKSC and Fe-C-CKSC adsorbents. The maximum Cr(VI) removal was obtained at the initial pH value of 1.56 for CKSC and 2.00 for Fe-C-CKSC. The optimum adsorbent dosage was found to be 5 g/L for CKSC and 3 g/L for Fe-C-CKSC. Based on the Langmuir model, the maximum adsorption capacities were calculated as 14.455 mg/g and 47.576 mg/g for CKSC and Fe-C-CKSC, respectively. Thermodynamic and kinetic studies were performed. As a result of adsorption kinetics calculations, adsorption was found to be consistent with the pseudo second order kinetic model. Characterization of the synthesized adsorbents was performed by SEM, BET, FTIR and elemental analysis. This study has shown that low cost adsorbents CKSC and Fe-C-CKSC can be used in Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions.

The volume and toxicity of radioactive waste can be decreased by separating the components of high-level liquid waste according to their properties. An impregnated silica-based adsorbent was prepared in this study by combining N,N,N',N',N",N"-hexa-n-octylnitrilotriacetamide (HONTA) extractant, N',N'-di-n-hexyl-thiodiglycolamide (Crea) extractant, and macroporous silica polymer composite particles (SiO₂-P). The performance of platinum-group metals adsorption and separation on prepared (HONTA + Crea)/SiO₂-P adsorbent was then assessed together with that of co-existing metal ions by batch-adsorption and chromatographic separation studies. From the batch-adsorption experiment results, (HONTA + Crea)/SiO₂-P adsorbent showed high adsorption performance of Pd(II) owing to an affinity between Pd(II) and Crea extractant based on the Hard and Soft Acids and Bases theory. Additionally, significant adsorption performance was observed toward Zr(IV) and Mo(VI). Compared with studies using the Crea extractant, the high adsorption performance of Zr(IV) and Mo(VI) is attributed to the HONTA extractant. As revealed from the chromatographic experiment results, most of Pd(II) was recovered from the feed solution using 0.2 M thiourea in 0.1 M HNO₃. Additionally, the possibility of recovery of Zr(IV), Mo(VI), and Re(VII) was observed using the (HONTA + Crea)/SiO₂-P adsorbent.
