일반적으로 Fenton 반응 공정을 실제 오염토양에 적용하기에는 다소 무리가 있다. 그 이유로 대표적인 Fenton 반응공정인 고전적인 Fenton 반응은 낮은 pH에서 우수한 처리효율을 보이고 있기 때문이다. 또한, 철이온의 투입을 대신하여 철광석을 이용하는 Fenton-like 반응도 철광석 표면에서 hydroxyl radical을 생성하나 높은 pH에서는 다량의 수산화물과의 경쟁반응으로 인하여 그 활성이 상당히 감소되어진다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 중성영역의 pH에서 철이온-chelating agent의 복합체를 촉매로 사용하는 modified Fenton 반응이 제시 되어지고 있다. 이 처리방식의 경우에는 다량의 철이온의 투입이 요구되어진다. 따라서, 본 실험에서는 Fenton-like 반응과 modified Fenton 반응의 효율적인 접목으로 중성영역에서의 chelating agent의 투입으로 철광석으로부터 철이온을 용출하여 복합체를 형성함으로 혼합 Fenton 공정에서 부가적인 촉매로 사용되어짐으로 오염물 처리효율을 크게 향상시킨 기법 개발을 진행하였다. 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene은 본 실험에서 오염원으로 사용하였으며, chelating agent에 의해 용출된 철이온이 약 0.1 mM 이상일 경우 Fenton-like 반응에 비하여 상당히 좋은 제거효율을 보였다. 혼합 Fenton 공정의 최대제거효율은 magnetite-NTA 시스템으로써 약 76%의 제거효율과 magnetite-EDTA의 경우 약 56%로서 이는 Fenton-like 반응에 비하여 약 40-60% 정도의 제거효율이 향상된 결과이다.

This study was carried out to apply some basic physical and chemical treatment options including Fenton's oxidation, and to evaluate the performances and the characteristics of organic and nitrogen removal using lab-scale biological treatment system such as complete-mixing activated sludge and sequencing batch reactor(SBR) processes for the treatment of leachate from a municipal waste landfill in Gyeongnam province. The results were as follows: Chemical coagulation experiments using aluminium sulfate, ferrous sulfate and ferric chloride resulted in leachate CO $D_{Cr}$ removal of 32%, 23% and 21 % with optimum reaction dose ranges of 10,000～15,000 mg/$\ell$, 1,000 mg/$\ell$ and 500～2,000 mg/$\ell$, respectively. Fenton's oxidation required the optimum conditions including pH 3.5, 6 hours of reaction time, and hydrogen peroxide and ferrous sulfate concentrations of 2,000 ～ 3,000 mg/$\ell$ each with 1:1 weight ratio to remove more than 50% of COD in the leachate containing CO $D_{Cr}$ between 2,000 ～ 3,000 mg/$\ell$. Air-stripping achieved to remove more than 97% of N $H_3$-N in the leachate in spite of requiring high cost of chemicals and extensive stripping time, and, however, zeolite treatment removing 94% of N $H_3$-N showed high selectivity to N $H^{+}$ ion and much faster removal rate than air-stripping. The result from lab-scale experiment using a complete-mixing activated sludge process showed that biological treatability tended to increase more or less as HRT increased or F/M ratio decreased, and, however, COD removal efficiency was very poor by showing only 36% at HRT of 29 days. While COD removal was achieved more during Fenton's oxidation as compared to alum treatment for the landfill leachate, the ratio of BOD/COD after Fenton's oxidation considerably increased, and the consecutive activated sludge process significantly reduced organic strength to remove 50% of CO $D_{Cr}$ and 95% of BO $D_{5}$ . The SBR process was generally more capable of removing organics and nitrogen in the leachate than complete-mixing activated sludge process to achieve 74% removal of influent CO $D_{Cr}$ , 98% of BO $D_{5}$ and especially 99% of N $H_3$-N. However, organic removal rates of the SBR processes pre-treated with air-stripping and with zeolite were not much different with those without pre-treatment, and the SBR process treated with powdered activated carbon showed a little higher rate of CO $D_{Cr}$ removal than the process without any treatment. In conclusion, the biological treatment process using SBR proved to be the most applicable for the treatment of organic contents and nitrogen simultaneously and effectively in the landfill leachate.e.

본 연구에서는 해양퇴적물 내에 자연적으로 존재하는 철 성분과 과산화수소수를 이용한 유사-펜톤 공정에서 퇴적물의 입자크기 별 분율 내의 PCBs제거효율을 파악하고 여러 가지 계면활성제(Triton X-100, Tween 60, Tween 80)의 동시 사용에 따른 효율을 실험하였다. 퇴적물 시료를 1%와 15%의 과산화수소수와 Triton X-100, Tween 60, Tween 80을 이용하여 1시간 동안 처리 시 tPCBs제거효율은 24.1~46.7%로 나타났다. 퇴적물의 입자 크기, 오염형태에 따라 제거 효율의 차이는 있었으나, 과산화수소수와 계면활성제를 동시에 사용하여 처리한 퇴적물의 tPCBs 농도는 수저준설토사 유효활용 기준을 충족하였다. 또한 적절한 계면활성제를 유사-펜톤 반응에 첨가제로 사용시 낮은 산화제 농도 조건에서도 보다 높은 산화제 농도 조건에서의 제거효율과 유사하게 나타났다. 그러므로 유사-펜톤 반응과 계면활성제에 의한 처리에서 해양오염퇴적물의 미세입자에 함유된 PCBs를 효율적으로 정화하는 것이 가능한 것으로 확인되었다.

하수 슬러지를 펜톤 산화공정으로 처리하는 새로운 VFAs 생산 공정을 연구하였다. 과산화수소와 촉매인 $Fe^{2+}$의 적정농도를 실험하고, 최적 반응온도 및 반응시간에 대한 기초 자료를 얻고자 하였다. 기존의 과산화수소를 액상산화제로 사용한 공정보다 저농도의 $Fe^{2+}$를 촉매로 사용하는 펜톤 산화공정으로 과산화수소의 사용량을 대폭 감소시키고도 VFAs 생성량이 4배 정도 증가하는 결과를 얻었다. 과산화수소와 $Fe^{2+}$의 적정 농도는 각각 0.62 M과 0.007M 이었다. VFAs 생성반응은 초기 1분 이내에서 빠르게 진행되었으며 생성된 VFAs의 일부가 초산과 $CO_2$로 분해되는 연속반응의 특성이 나타났다. 경제성을 감안하면 반응온도는 $25^{\circ}C$, 반응시간은 10분 정도가 적절한 반응조건으로 생각된다. 초기 pH $3{\sim}6.3$에서 VFAs의 생성에 미치는 pH의 영향은 관찰되지 않았다.

본 연구는 폐수 중 함유된 고농도의 LAS를 제거하기 위해 $FeSO_4$를 이용한 응집, 펜톤산화, 펜톤 공정 전.후에 응집공정을 조합시킨 Coagu-oxidation 및 Renton's Coagulation을 이용하여, 처리 시 최적 조건을 도출하고, 효율적인 화학적 처리방법을 검토하기 위해 수행되었다. 연구로부터 얻어진 결론은 다음과 같다. 응집공정은 pH 8, 응집제의 주입량 200mg/L인 조건에서, 펜톤산화는 pH 3, $H_2$$O_2$에 대한 ${Fe^2}^{+}$의 비가 1:1인 조건에서 최적효율을 보였다. Fenton's Coagulation 처리 시 LAS의 개환율은 높아졌고, 주입된 LAS농도의 73~96%가 제거되어 4가지 처리 방법 중 가 장 좋은 처리효율을 보였다. 따라서, LAS의 생물학적 처리 시 거품 및 부산물 생성 등에 의해 저해작용을 감안한다면, LAS가 다량으로 함유한 산업 폐수에서 화학적 처리방법의 도 입이 적절할 것으로 생각되며, 이들 중 Fenton's Coagulation을 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The effect of chemically oxidized intermediates of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds on the degradation of the parent PAHs was characterized and evaluated for the context of cooxidation. Anthracene and pyrene exhibited extensive degradation (mean percent removal of 57.5%) after 28 days of incubation by introducing the Fenton oxidation intermediate of the PAH compounds, while unoxidized anthracene and pyrene exhibited 12.5% removal The chemical oxidation products can serve as a structually similar analogue substrates for a consortia of soil microorganisms and as a metabolic intermediates in the biodegradation sequence of the parent PAH compounds. These results may be interpreted in the context of cooxidation mechanism whereby high recalcitrant PAH compounds are biodegraded in the soil and suggest a potential tool for bioremediation of PAHs contaminated soils and protection of groundwater.

In typical remediation practices, separate washing systems have to be applied to clean up the soils contaminated with both oil and heavy metals. In this study, we evaluated the efficiency of successive two-stage soil washing in removal of mixed-contaminants from soil matrix. Two-stage soil washing experiments were conducted using different combinations of chemical agent: 1) persulfate oxidation, followed by organic acid washing, and 2) Fenton oxidation, followed by inorganic acid washing. Persulfate oxidation-organic acid washing efficiently removed both organic and inorganic contaminants to meet the regulatory soil quality standard. The average removal rates of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), Cu, Pb, and Zn were 88.9%, 82.2%, 77.5%, and 66.3% respectively, (S/L 1:10, reaction time 1 h, persulfate 0.5 M, persulfate:activator 3:1, citric acid 2 M). Fenton oxidation-inorganic acid washing also gave satisfactory performances to give 89%, 80.9%, 87.1%, and 67.7% removal of TPH, Cu, Pb, and Zn, respectively (S/L 1:10, reaction time 1 hr, hydrogen peroxide 0.3 M, hydrogen peroxide:activator 5:1, inorganic acid 1 M).

Many herbs have been used as therapeutics in Korean traditional medicine. In view of their clinical indications, anti-oxidant activity may contribute to their pharmacological effects. However, anti-oxidant information on these plants has not been available. In this study, seventy herbs which have been used in Korean traditional medicine were selected and screened for anti-oxidant activity using their water extracts. The anti-oxidant activity was assessed by their ability to inhibit three oxidation reactions; luminol/Fenton reagent, 2, 7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein(DCHF)/Fenton reagent and DCHF/peroxynitrite. In each assay, 70 herbs were divided into two groups; anti-oxidant group which inhibited the respective oxidation reaction and was majority(about 60 herbs), and pro-oxidant group which enhanced the oxidation reaction but was minority(more or less 10 herbs). When the herbs were listed in the order of their anti-oxidant strength, the orders obtained from each assay were found to be quite similar. The upper top rankers(more or less 10 herbs) in each assay showed strong activity compared to the others. The uppermost rankers in each assay were Rubus coreanus Miquel/Rubus schizostylus(覆盆子), Schisandra chinensis Baillon/Schizandra chinensis(五味子) and Terminalia chebula Retziusl Terminalia chebula(訶子). Of the pro-oxidant herbs, about 4-5 herbs were strongly pro-oxidant, which enhanced the control oxidation reactions to 150-300%. But the meaning of this observation is not known since few of them in one assay were also anti-oxidant in other assays. The results obtained in the present study may serve as information for understanding pharmacological effects of these herbs and developing new drugs from them.

Landfilling is the most commonly adopted method for a large quantity of waste disposal. But, the main concern related to landfills is the generation of leachate. The leachate is high strength wastewater that is usually characterized by the presence of high molecular recalcitrant organics. Several conventional methods are adopted for leachate treatment. However, these methods are only suitable for young leachate, having high biodegradability and low toxicity levels. The mature and stabilized leachate needs advanced technologies for its effective treatment. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are very suitable for such complex wastewater treatment as reported in the literature. After going through the literature survey, it can be concluded that Fenton-based approaches are effective for the treatment of various high/low strength wastewaters treatment. The applications of the Fenton-based approaches are widely adopted and well recognized due to their simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and reliability for the reduction of high chemical oxygen demand (COD) as reported in several studies. Besides, the process is relatively economical due to fewer chemical, non-sophisticated instruments, and low energy requirements. In this review, the conventional and advanced Fenton's approaches are explained with their detailed reaction mechanisms and applications for landfill leachate treatment. The effect of influencing factors like pH, the dosage of chemicals, nature of reaction matrix, and reagent ratio on the treatment efficiencies are also emphasized. Furthermore, the discussion regarding the reduction of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and color, increase in biodegradability, removal of humic acids from leachate, combined processes, and the pre/post-treatment options are highlighted. The scope of future studies is summarized to attain sustainable solutions for restrictions associated with these methods for effective leachate treatment.

In the present study, the degradation characteristics of Lindane by Advanced Oxidation Processes(UV/$H_2O_2$, Photo-Fenton process) were studied. The degradation efficiency of Lindane in aqueous solution was investigated at various initial pH values, Fenton's reagent concentrations and initial concentrations of Lindane. GC-ECD was used to analyze lindane. Lindane has not been degraded without application of AOPs over two hours. But, approximately 5% of lindane was degraded with UV or $H_2O_2$ alone. Lindane with UV/$H_2O_2$ process showed approximately 7% higher removal efficiency than $H_2O_2$ process. In the UV/$H_2O_2$ process, the pH values did not affect the removal efficiency. The optimal mole ratio of $H_2O_2/Fe^{2+}$ for lindane degradation is about 1.0 in Photo-Fenton process. Also, the experimental results showed that lindane removal efficiency increased with the decrease of initial concentration of lindane. Under the same conditions, the order lindane of removal efficiency is as following : Photo-Fenton process > UV/$H_2O_2$ process > $H_2O_2$ process. In addition, intermediate products were identified by GC-MS techniques. Than PCCH(Pentachlorocyclohexene) was identified as a reaction intermediate of the Photo-Fenton process.
