Evaluation of the removal efficiencies of Fe(II) by reactive sand media coated with manganese (MCS), iron (ICS) and both of iron and manganese (IMCS) was investigated as functions of solution pH ranging from 2 to 9, reaction time and concentration of Fe(II) in a batch reactor using each reactive medium and additional oxidants such as $KMnO_4$ and NaOCl. When only Fe(II) was present in solution without any reactive medium, removal of Fe(II) was quite low below pH 5 due to a slow oxidation of Fe(II) and/or negligible precipitation but greatly increased above pH 5 due to a rapid oxidation of Fe(II) and subsequent precipitation of oxidized Fe species. ICS showed negligible efficiency on the removal of Fe(II) through adsorption. However, an efficient removal of Fe(II) was observed at low solution pH in the presence of IMCS or MCS through rapid oxidation and subsequent precipitation. Removal efficiency of Fe(II) by IMCS in the presence or absence of NaOCl was quite similar. Removal rate of Fe(II) by IMCS and additional oxidants gradually increased as the solution pH increased. From the kinetic experiments, removal pattern of Fe(II) was better described by pseudo-second-order equation than pseudo-first-order equation. A rapid removal of Fe(II) using IMCS in the presence of $KMnO_4$ was observed in the first 10 min. The initial removal rate of Fe(II) using $KMnO_4$ was 14,286 mg/kg hr. In case of using NaOCl, the removal of Fe(II) occurred rapidly in the first 6 hrs and then reached the near-equilibrium state. Removal of Fe(II) on IMCS was well expressed by Langmuir isotherm and the maximum removal capacity of Fe(II) was calculated as 1,088 mg/kg.

The methods to separate and remove copper in the mixed solution ((399 ppm Cu, 208 ppm Fe, 15.3 g/L Ni, 2.1 g/L Co) with nickel, cobalt and iron were investigated. With hydroxide precipitation method, copper and iron ions were completely precipitated and removed from the solution at pH 7 while some nickel and cobalt also were precipitated. 99.75% copper could be precipitated and removed as copper sulfide from the solution with adding $Na_2S$ (1.25 w/v concentration) of 2 times equivalent of Cu at pH 1. Copper was selectively absorbed on TP 207 ion exchange resin at equilibrium pH 2.0 and could be eluted from copper-loaded resin using 5% $H_2SO_4$.

$H_2S$ is a detrimental impurity that must be removed for upgrading biogas to biomethane. This study investigates an economic method to mitigate $H_2S$ content, combining scrubbing and aeration. The desulfurization experiments were performed in a laboratory apparatus using EDTA-Fe or landfill leachate as the catalyst and metered mixture of 50-52% (v/v) $CH_4$, 32-33% (v/v) $CO_2$ and 500-1,000 ppmv $H_2S$ balanced by $N_2$ using the C city landfill gas. Dissolved iron concentration in the liquid medium significantly affected the oxidation efficiency of sulfide. Iron components in landfill leachate, which would be available in a biogas/landfill gas utilization facility, was compatible with an external iron chelate. More than 70% of $H_2S$ was removed in a contact time of 9 seconds at iron levels at or over 28 mM. The scrubbing-aeration process would be a feasible and easy-to-operate technology for biogas purification.

The acid gas removal (AGR) system was designed and installed to remove $H_2S$ in coal syngas in the pilot-scale coal gasification system for producing chemicals like Dimethyl Ether(DME). The syngas from the coal gasification at the rate of $100{\sim120$ $Nm^3$/hr included pollutants such as fly ash. $H_2S$, COS, $NH_3$, etc. The designed temperature and pressure of the AGR system are below 50oC and 8 kg/$cm^2$. Fe-chelate was used as an absorbent. $H_2S$ was stably removed below 0.5 ppm in the AGR system when the concentration of $H_2S$ was $150{\sim}450$ ppm. The pH of Fe-chelate solution was also stably maintained between $8{\sim}9$. FeMgO absorbent was also tested to remove $H_2S$ in the lab-scale AGR system and $H_2S$ was also removed below 0.5 ppm in the initial operation.

Soft-lithography 기술 중의 하나인 Micro-Contact Printing (${\mu}$-CP) 기술은 패턴이 형성된 mold 위에 고분자 물질을 코팅하고 기판과 접촉시켜, 패턴 된 부분만 기판으로 전사시켜 패턴을 형성하는 방법이다. ${\mu}$-CP 기술은 Imprint 방식과 비교하여 잔여물을 제거하기 위한 ashing 공정이 필요 없으며, 상대적으로 패턴이 전사되기 위한 공정 온도와 압력이 낮은 장점이 있다. 한편, 기존의 Photolithography 기술로 유기기판에 패턴을 형성하는 것은 제한이 있으며, 자외선에 의해 유기기판의 특성이 변화될 수 있다. 또한 패턴 형성 후 고분자 패턴을 제거하는 용매가 기판이 손상 받게 된다. 본 실험에서는 poly (1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyl methacrylate) polymer (PFDMA) films을 패턴 된 poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) mold 위에 코팅하고 ${\mu}$-CP 기술을 통해 poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP)등과 같은 유기기판 위에 고분자 패턴 형성을 하였다. 이때 전사 가능한 온도는 상온이며, 압력은 코팅된 PFDMA films이 기판과 접촉될 수 있는 정도만 필요하다. PFDMA가 상온에서 전사 가능한 이유는 유리전이온도가 상온보다 낮기 때문이다. 또한 접촉각을 측정하여 접착력을 계산하면 PFDMA와 기판과의 접착력이 상대적으로 높기 때문이다. PFDMA는 플루오르계 용매에 제거되기 때문에 유기기판의 손상을 최소화 할 수 있다. ${\mu}$-CP 기술을 이용한 PFDMA의 패턴 형성 방법은 물질의 특성으로 flexible 및 organic device 제작에 응용 될 수 있다.

In a batch mode treatment process, which electrolyzes the wastewater after derivation of N-P crystal formation and recovery, the characteristics of pollutant removal induced with the changes of loading rate and hydraulic retention time were studied. $MgCl_2$ was used as Mg source for the formation of struvite and the molar ratio of $MgCl_2$ to $PO_4^{3-}$ in influent was 1.3. When analyzing the average treatment efficiencies and removal characteristics obtained from four separate operations (Run I, II, III, IV), removal efficiencies of PO43- was not function of its loading rate. Under a condition of sufficient aeration and Mg source provided, over 88% of $PO_4^{3-}$ was eliminated by the formation of MAP without any pH adjustment, in spite of loading rate variation. An optimum-loading rate of NH4-N to achieve high removal efficiency was approximately $100g/m^3/d$. Below that loading rate, the removal of NH4-N was proportional to the loading rate into the system, and hence stable and high removal efficiency, over 90%, was achieved. However, when the loading rate increased over that rate, removal efficiency began to drop and fluctuate. Removal efficiency of TOCs was dependant upon the hydraulic retention time ($r^2$=0.97), not upon the loading rate. Stable and high color removal (94%) was obtained with 2 days of HRT in electrolysis reactor.

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.

Biofiltration is an attractive technique for elimination of VOCs and odorous compounds from low-concentration, high-volume waste gas streams because of its simplicity and cost-effectiveness. The objective of this study was to estimate the removal characteristics of Odorous Compounds including $H_2$S, $NH_3$End BTEX in MSW landfill gases. This Study was conducted at Nanjido landfill site. A compost from the Nanjido composting facility was used as a filling material for biofiltration. Extracted landfill gases were injected into biofilter reactors after mixing with air. Experiments were performed in an incubator being set to $20^{\circ}C$ $H_2$S concentrations were monitored at the depths of 25, 50, 75 and 100cm from the bottom Of the biofilter reactors. 98% of $H_2$S was removed at the filling depth of only 25cm. NH$_3$removal rate was about 85%. Toluene removal rate was the highest among BTEX. Significant pH drop of a filling material was not observed during the biofilter operation of 1 month. Without mixing the landfill gas stream with all, the removal rate of $H_2$S decreased down to 30%.

Due to the high reduction and sorption capacity as well as the large specific surface area, nanosized mackinawite (FeS) is useful in reductively transforming chlorinated organic pollutants and sequestering toxic metals and metalloids. Due to the dynamic nature in its colloid stability, however, nanosized FeS may be washed out with the groundwater flow or result in aquifer clogging via particle aggregation. Thus, these nanoparticles should be modified such as to be built into permeable reactive barriers. This study employed coating methods in efforts to facilitate the installation of permeable reactive barriers of nanosized mackinawite. In applying the methods, nanosized mackinawite was coated on non-treated silica sand (NTS) and chemically treated silica sand (CTS). For both silica sands, the maximum coating of mackinawite occurred around pH 5.4, the condition of which was governed by (1) the solubility of mackinawite and (2) the surface charge of both silica and mackinawite. Under this pH condition, the maximum coating by NTS and CTS were found to be 0.101 mmol FeS/g and 0.043 mmol FeS/g respectively, with such elevated coatings by NTS likely linked with impurities (e.g., iron oxides) on its surface. Arsenite sorption experiments were performed under anoxic conditions using uncoated silica sands and those coated with mackinawite at the optimal pH to compare their reactivity. At pH 7, the relative sorption efficiency between uncoated NTS and coated NTS changed with the initial concentration of arsenite. At the lower initial concentration, uncoated NTS showed the higher sorption efficiency, whereas at the higher concentration, coated NTS exhibited the higher sorption efficiency. This could be attributed to different sorption mechanisms as a function of arsenite concentration: the surface complexation of arsenite with the iron oxide impurity on silica sand at the low concentration and the precipitation as arsenic sulfides by reaction with mackinawite coating at the high concentration. Compared to coated NTS, coated CTS showed the lower arsenite removal at pH 7 due to its relatively lower mackinawite coating. Taken together, our results indicate that NTS is a more effective material than CTS for the coating of nanosized mackinawite.
