본 연구에서는 제올라이트 X를 이용한 Cs 이온 흡착시 흡착시간 및 초기농도, 온도 및 pH 변화와 같은 영향인자를 평가하였다. 이 결과로부터 Cs 이온의 흡착속도, 등온흡착량 및 열역학적 특성을 해석하였다. 제올라이트 X에 의한 Cs 이온의 흡착은 pH 5~10에서 효과적이었으며, 평형흡착시간은 약 60분이었다. 흡착속도와 등온흡착량은 유사 2차 속도 모델식과 Langmuir 식에 잘 적용되었다. Langmuir 식으로 구한 Cs 이온의 최대 흡착량은 293~333 K에서 각각 303.03~333.33 mg/g이었다. 제올라이트 X에 의한 Cs 이온의 흡착은 흡열반응이고 자발적인 반응이었다. 실험값을 다중회귀분석으로 최적화하여 2차 다항식을 얻었다. 이 최적화된 식으로부터 구한 종속변수의 값과 실험에서 구한 값은 잘 일치하였다.

본 연구에서는 제올라이트를 PVA에 고정화시켜 새로운 흡착제인 PVA-Zeolite 비드를 제조하고, XRD 및 SEM 분석을 통해 제조한 PVA-Zeolite 비드는 내부에 제올라이트가 잘 고정화된 다공성 구조를 가지고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 제조한 흡착제에 의한 Cs 이온과 Sr 이온에 대한 흡착특성을 살펴보기 위하여 pH의 영향, 흡착속도, 흡착등온을 검토하였다. Sr 및 Cs 이온에 대한 평형흡착시간은 약 540 min으로 나타났으며, 흡착속도는 유사 1차 속도식 보다는 유사 2차 속도식에 더 잘 부합하였다. 흡착평형 실험결과는 Langmuir 등온식에 잘 적용되었으며, Langmuir 등온식으로부터 구한 Sr 이온과 Cs 이온의 최대 흡착량은 각각 52.08 mg/g와 58.14 mg/g이었다. PVA-Zeolite 비드에 의한 Sr 이온과 Cs 이온의 흡착공정은 외부물질전달단계는 매우 빠르게 이루어지며, 내부입자확산에 의한 흡착반응은 느리게 진행되어 내부입자확산 단계가 흡착속도 결정단계인 것으로 판단된다.

A zeolitic material (Z-Y2) was synthesized from Coal Fly Ash (CFA) using a fusion/hydrothermal method under low-alkali condition (NaOH/CFA = 0.6). The adsorption performance of the prepared zeolite was evaluated by monitoring its removal efficiencies for Sr and Cs ions, which are well-known as significant radionuclides in liquid radioactive waste. The XRD (X-ray diffraction) patterns of the synthesized Z-Y2 indicated that a Na-A type zeolite was formed from raw coal fly ash. The SEM (scanning electron microscope) images also showed that a cubic crystal structure of size $1{\sim}3{\mu}m$ was formed on its surface. In the adsorption kinetic analysis, the adsorption of Sr and Cs ions on Z-Y2 fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model well, instead of the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The second-order kinetic rate constant ($k_2$) was determined to be $0.0614g/mmol{\cdot}min$ for Sr and $1.8172g/mmol{\cdot}min$ for Cs. The adsorption equilibria of Sr and Cs ions on Z-Y2 were fitted successfully by Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacity ($q_m$) of Sr and Cs was calculated as 1.6846 mmol/g and 1.2055 mmol/g, respectively. The maximum desorption capacity ($q_{dm}$) of the Na ions estimated via the Langmuir desorption model was 2.4196 mmol/g for Sr and 2.1870 mmol/g for Cs. The molar ratio of the desorption/adsorption capacity ($q_{dm}/q_m$) was determined to be 1.44 for Na/Sr and 1.81 for Na/Cs, indicating that the amounts of desorbed Na ions and adsorbed Sr and Cs ions did not yield an equimolar ratio when using Z-Y2.

The adsorption characteristics of Sr and Cs ions were investigated by using PS-zeolite beads prepared by immobilizing zeolite with polysulfone (PS). The adsorption kinetics of Sr and Cs ions by PS-zeolite beads was described well by the pseudo-second-order model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Sr and Cs ions calculated from Langmuir isotherm model were 65.0 mg/g and 76.4 mg/g, respectively. In the binary system of Sr ion and Cs ion, the adsorption capacities of each ion decreased with increasing mole ratio of mixed counterpart ion, and Cs ion showed the higher hinderance than Sr ion. We found that thermodynamic properties of Sr and Cs ions on absorption reaction were spontaneous and endothermic at 293 to 323 K.

Zeolite was synthesized from power station waste, coal fly ash, as an alternative low-cost adsorbent and investigated for the removal of Sr(II) and Cs(I) ions from single- and binary metal aqueous solutions. In order to investigate the adsorption characteristics, the effects of various operating parameters such as initial concentration of metal ions, contact time, and pH of the solutions were studied in a batch adsorption technique. The Langmuir model better fitted the adsorption isotherm data than the Freundlich model. The pseudo second-order model was found more applicable to describe the kinetics of system. The adsorption capacities of Sr(II) and Cs(I) ions obtained from the Langmuir model were 1.7848 mmol/g and 0.7640 mmol/g, respectively. Although the adsorption capacities of individual Sr(II) and Cs(I) ions was less in the binary-system, the sum of the total adsorption capacity (2.3572 mmol/g) of both ions in the binary-system was higher than the adsorption capacity of individual ion in the single-system. Comparing the homogeneous film diffusion model with the homogeneous particle diffusion model, the adsorption was mainly controlled by the particle diffusion process.

화력발전소에서 발생되는 석탄비산재로부터 합성한 제올라이트 X를 이용한 Cs 흡착의 회분식 실험 및 반응표면분석법(Response Surface Methodology, RSM)을 적용하여 결과를 분석하였다. Cs 흡착 실험에 적용된 회귀 방정식은 반응변수의 함수로 나타낼 수 있었다. 결정계수($r^2$)가 0.9630으로서 이 모델은 높은 상관성을 가졌다. pH > Cs 농도 > 온도와 같은 실험적 요인의 순서로 Cs의 제거효율에 영향을 준다는 것을 통계적인 결과로부터 확인하였다. 흡착속도는 유사 2차 모델에 의해 보다 정확하게 표현되었다. Langmuir 등온선 모델로부터 계산된 최대 흡착용량은 293 K에서 $151.52mg\;g^{-1}$이었다. 또한, Vant Hoff 식에 의해 계산된 열역학 파라미터에 의거하여 흡착반응이 흡열반응이며, 자발적인 과정임을 확인할 수 있었다.

The adsorption characteristics of Sr ions and Cs ions in single and binary solution by zeolite A were investigated in batch experiment. The adsorption rate of Sr ions and Cs ions by zeolite A obeyed pseudo-second-order kinetic model in single and binary solution. The initial adsorption rates (h) and adsorption capacities of both ions obtained from pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and the values were decreased with increasing concentration of the competitive ions (0~1.5 mM). Also, adsorption isotherm data in binary solution were well fitted to the extended Langmuir model, the maximum adsorption capacities of Sr and Cs calculated from the model were 1.78 mmol/g and 1.64 mmol/g, respectively. The adsorption of Sr and Cs ions by zeolite A was carried out in the presence of other cations such as $Na^+$, $K^+$, $Mg^{2+}$ and $Ca^{2+}$. The results showed that the zeolite A can maintain a relatively high adsorption capacity for Sr and Cs ions and exhibits a high selectivity in the presence of competitive cations. The effect of competition had an order of $Ca^{2+}$ > $K^+$ > $Mg^{2+}$ > $Na^+$ for Sr ions and $K^+$ > $Ca^{2+}$ > $Na^+$ > $Mg^{2+}$ for Cs ions at the same cation concentration.

The removal of Sr ion and Cs ion was investigated to evaluate adsorption properties by using SAN-Zeolite beads immobilized with styrene acrylonitrile (SAN). The adsorption capacities increased with the decrease of SAN/zeolite ratio (SAR) from 2.5 to 0.83. The relationship of adsorption capacity ($q_e$) and SAR was described by experimental equation such as $q_e=20.88+137.81e^{-1.96SAR}$ ($r^2=0.9980$). The adsorption kinetics of Sr ion and Cs ion with SAN-Zeolite beads were fitted well by the pseudo-second-order model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Sr ion and Cs ion calculated from Langmuir isotherm model were 66.97 mg/g and 81.97 mg/g, respectively.

본 연구는 고방사성해수폐액에 함유되어 있는 주요 고방사성 핵종인 Cs을 제거하기 위하여 IE911 (crystalline silicotitanate)에 의한 흡착 제거를 수행하였다. Cs의 효율적 흡착제거 및 2차 고체폐기물의 발생량을 최소화하기 위하여 IE911-Cs 흡착은 m/V (흡착제 질량/용액 부피) 비=2.5 g/L, 흡착시간은 1 시간 정도가 효과적이었다. 이때 Cs은 약 99%, Sr은 5% 이하가 각각 흡착되었다. 또한 IE911-Cs 흡착은 Langmuir 등온식 및 유사 (pseudo) 2차 속도 식으로 표현할 수 있으며, 흡착속도상수(k₂)는 Cs의 초기농도 및 입자크기 증가에 따라 감소하는데 반하여, m/V 비, 온도 및 교반속도 증가에 따라서는 증가하고 있다. IE911-Cs 흡착의 활성화에너지는 약 79.9 kJ/mol 로, IE911-Cs 흡착이 보다 강력한 결합 형태를 이룬 화학적 흡착임을 보여주고 있다. 그리고 음수 값의 Gibbs 자유에너지 및 엔탈피는 IE911-Cs의 흡착반응이 정반응의 발열반응이고, 저온에서 반응이 상대적으로 활발함을 의미하며, 음수 값의 엔트로피는 흡착된 Cs이 IE911에 균일하게 정렬되어 있음을 나타낸다.

A porous silica-based adsorbent was prepared by impregnating the pores of a silica support with the extractant 1,3-[(2,4-diethylheptylethoxy)oxy]-2,4-crown-6-calix[4]arene (Calix[4]arene-R14) and an additive agent 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (C₂mim ⁺ NTf^-₂) as the materials to remove cesium(I) (Cs⁺) ions from seawater. The as-prepared adsorbent showed excellent adsorption performance toward Cs⁺ ions, with adsorption equilibrium reached within 2 h and an adsorption amount of 0.196 mmol/g observed. The solution pH, temperature, and the presence of coexisting metal ions were found to have almost no effect on Cs⁺ adsorption. The adsorption mechanism was considered to proceed via ion exchange between Cs⁺ and C₂mim⁺. In addition, the particle-induced X-ray emission analysis results further clarified that the adsorbed Cs⁺ ion species on the adsorbent was in the form of both CsCl and CsBr.
