본 연구에서는 냉연도금공장의 각 단위공정에서 발생되는 폐수를 미생물을 이용하여 안정하게 처리하기 위하여 각 폐수의 특성파악과 처리조건을 도출하고자 하였다. 발생되는 폐수 중 알칼리성폐수가 전체폐수의 64%를 차지하였으며, 산중금속함유폐수는 30%를 차지했다. 탈류폐액의 COD는 53890 mg/L로 전체 폐수발생량의 0.03%에 불과함에도 불구하고 COD의 53%를 유발하고 있었으며, COD의 94%는 SCN에 의해 기인하였다. 혼합폐수를 미생물로 처리할 때 혼합폐수 중 SCN농도가 200 mg/L 이하일 때 제거가 용이하였다. 반면 COD 유발물질은 400 mg/L 이하가 되더라도 처리효율이 미흡하였다. 이는 탈류폐액 중에는 난분해성 유기물질이 다량 함유되어 있기 때문이라 판단된다. 혼합폐수를 처리할 때 초기에 pH가 7.33이었지만 8 h 후에는 7.99로 상승하였다. 이는 탈류폐액에 함유된 SCN이 박테리아에 의해 분해될 때 발생되는 암모니아에 의해 기인한 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, the electrolytic treatment by one-stage electrolysis was investigated for electroplating wastewater containing $Cr^{6+}$ and $CN^{-}$. From the results, we concluded as follows : Optimum initial pH of wastewater was pH : 3. Amount of optimum addition of electroltyte(NaCl) was 0.1 wt%. Optimum potential for electrolysis was 5 volt. Concentration and removal efficiency for $Cr^{6+}$ and $CN^{-}$ were under 1 mg/L and above 99% at optimum conditions. And the feasibility of electrolytic treatment for electroplating wastewater containing $Cr^{6+}$ and $CN^{-}$ was certified.

Suitability of aluminium-based water treatment sludge (WTS), a waste product from water treatment facilities, was assessed for removal of heavy metals from an electroplating wastewater which had high concentrations of copper and chromium along with other heavy metals. Batch tests with simulated wastewater in single- and multi-metal solutions indicated the influence of initial pH and WTS dose on removal of six metals namely Cu(II), Co(II), Cr(VI), Hg(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II). In general, removal of cationic metals such as Pb(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) increased with increase in pH while that of anionic Cr(VI) showed a reduction with increased pH values. Tests with multi-metal solution showed that the influence of competition was more pronounced at lower WTS dosages. Column test with diluted (100 times) real electroplating wastewater showed complete removal of copper up to 100 bed volumes while chromium removal ranged between 78-92%. Other metals which were present in lower concentrations were also effectively removed. Mass balance for copper and chromium showed that the WTS media had Cu(II) and Cr(VI) sorption capacities of about 1.7 and 3.5 mg/g of dried sludge, respectively. The study thus indicates that WTS has the potential to be used as a filtration/adsorption medium for removal of metals from metal-bearing wastewaters.

A modified procedure for electroplating wastewater treatment using formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide can destroy free cyanide. The representative diagram which is quite sensitive on reaction temperature is showed for this kinds of treatment. Principally free cyanide and some kinds of cyanide complex should be treated first, and then toxic heavy metals can be removed because cyanide component will be inhibited to remove other pollutants, if it is not destroyed perfectly. Formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide are added in controlled amounts to cyanide treatment tank. Reasonable amounts of these chemicals are (HCHO/CN)=0.9 and ($H_2O_2/CN$)=1.1 in molar ratios, it is also variable on reaction temperature. Of course, actual treatment processes depending on plating material and chemical are good applicable, also to systematize operation manual for treating electroplating wastewater process, further works are desirable.

This study concernes the decomposition of cyanide ion in electroplating plant wastewater and COD variation of photodeveloping wastewater under various conditions. Determinations of CN- concentration were carried out by AgNO$_3$ titration method. The sample solutions were pretreated by passing ozone and decompositions were checked as a function of time for ozone treatment. Analysis of film developing wastewater was carried out by KMnO$_4$ method. Electroplating plant wastewater was also examined at various pH; decomposition rate of cyanide ion was found to increase at higher pH. Time required for the decomposition could be shortened by removing the heavy metal ions under alkaline condition. The effect of temperature on decomposition was studied at 40$^{\circ}$ and 60$^{\circ}C$. The result was better at 40$^{\circ}C$ although time for decomposition was almost same at both temperatures. Analysis of film developing wastewater revealed that COD decrease was faster during the first 1 to 2 hours. However, further decrease could not be effected. The existence of unknown special organics resistant to the decomposition was believed to be the reason.

우리나라 경제의 근간을 이루고 있는 철강산업, 자동차산업이나 전자산업에서 전기도금은 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있다. 전기도금 폐액은 전처리, 도금 및 후처리과정에서 발생하는 폐액이고 다양한 금속염을 포함한 유해한 폐수이다. 현재 일반적인 폐수는 환경법상 배수 규제치 이하로 중화처리한 후 각종 금속이 혼합된 슬러지는 매립하거나 위탁처리하고 있는데, 처리에 따른 막대한 비용이 들뿐만 아니라 매립지 부족과 유가금속 자원 낭비를 초래하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 폐수에서 유가금속을 회수하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 전기도금 폐액에서 금속을 선택적으로 회수하는 새로운 방법은 철산화세균을 이용하는 방법, 황화제를 이용한 황화물(MS) 회수법 및 유기용매를 이용한 용매추출법 등에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이들의 폐수처리방법을 이용하여 Fe, Cu, Zn, Ni 등의 금속이온이 혼합된 폐수에서 유가금속을 95%이상 회수하는 성과를 거두었다. 이는 전기도금공정에서 배출되는 폐수를 폐기할 것이 아니라 도시광산의 중요한 금속자원으로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Emulsions were formed through putting small quantity of nickel electroplating solution into supercritical carbon dioxide, and then electroplating in the $sc-CO_2$ emulsions was conducted. It is an environmental-friendly technology that can solve the treatment of a large quantity of toxic plating wastewater, which is a big problem in the existing wet plating, and also can reduce secondary waste generation fundamentally. Supercritical carbon dioxide emulsions enhanced by ultrasonic horn were formed by non-ionic surfactant and nickel solution. Plating condition within emulsions was set up as 120bar and $55^{\circ}C$ through measurement of electrical conductivity following the pressure change. Experiments were conducted respectively against supercritical carbon dioxide emulsions electroplating and general chemical electroplating, and then their results were compared and analyzed. As the experiment result utilizing emulsions, plating surface was formed very evenly even with a small quantity of electroplating solution, and fine particles were plated compactly without any pinhole or crack due to hydrogenation, which occurs in general electroplating. Used electroplating solution can be reused through recovery process. Therefore, this technology will be able to be applied as new clean technology in electro-plating.

2014년을 기준으로 도금폐수에 함유한 중금속중 니켈은 5 mg/L에서 3 mg/L로 방류수 기준이 강화되었다. 그러나 현재 적용되고 있는 도금폐수 중의 니켈 처리방법으로는 방류수 기준치 이하로 처리하기 어려워 대부분의 처리 업체에서 다른 폐수와 혼합하여 단순한 희석에 의해 농도를 낮추고 있는 실정이다. 이는 환경에 지대한 영향을 미칠 수 있으며 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 희생전극을 사용한 전기분해 방법을 적용하여 실질적이며 효율적인 니켈의 처리방법을 제시하였다. 실험은 인공폐수 및 실폐수로 수행하였으며 인공폐수 실험에서는 전기분해과정에서 니켈 제거 효율에 영향을 줄 수 있는 전류밀도와 pH를 변화시키며 최적의 효율을 나타내는 조건을 도출하였다. 실험결과 니켈 제거 효율은 94%를 상회하며 잔류니켈농도는 방류수 기준치 이하로 낮추고 철 슬러지 처리로 인한 경제성까지 고려한 조건으로 전류밀도 $1{\sim}2mA/cm^2$와 pH 9가 도출되었다. 이 처리 조건을 실폐수에 적용시켰을 때 니켈 제거 효율은 60~70%로 인공폐수 실험결과보다 제거효율이 낮게 조사되었다. 이는 실폐수에는 다른 중금속 및 음이온이 다량 함유되어 있어 처리 효율에 영향을 미친 것으로 판단된다. 실폐수의 경우 pH 9에서 전류밀도 $6{\sim}7mA/cm^2$ 조건으로 5분 동안 전기분해 처리를 하였을 때 니켈 제거효율 88% 이상, 처리수의 잔류 니켈 농도 3.0 mg/L 이하로 방류수 기준을 만족시킬 수 있었다.

A spectrofluorimetric method has been developed for the determination of free $CN^-$ in real samples with fluorescent safranine-O. When safranine-O interacts electrostatistically with $CN^-$, the fluorescent intensity of safranine-O is decreased. Several experimental conditions such as pH of the sample solution and the amount of safranine-O were optimized. $Ag^+$ interfered higher than any other ions. Interference of $Ag^+$ could be disregarded because $Ag^+$ was scarcely contained or mostly complexed with $CN^-$ in selected real samples. With this proposed method, the linear range of $CN^-$ was from 5.0 to 110 ng/mL and the detection limit of $CN^-$ was 2.9 ng/mL. For validating this technique, real samples (Cu, Ag, Au electroplating wastewater, and untreated wastewater in university and in sewage treatment plant) were used. Recovery yields of 91.5%~106.0% were obtained. Based on experimental results, it is proposed that this technique can be applied to the practical determination of free $CN^-$.
