To understand the characteristics of vanadium leaching from soils formed by the weathering of basalts, paleo soil at Gosan, Jeju Island, Korea, and several present-day soils from neighboring areas were collected. Leaching experiments were carried out by two approaches: 1) batch experiments under various geochemical conditions (redox potential (Eh) and pH) and 2) continuous leaching experiments under conditions similar to those of natural environments. From the batch experiments, leached vanadium concentrations were highest under alkaline (NaOH) conditions, with a maximum value of $2,870{\mu}g/L$, and were meaningful (maximum value, $114{\mu}g/L$) under oxidizing ($H_2O_2$) conditions, whereas concentrations under other conditions (acidic-HCl, $neutral-NaHCO_3$, and $reducing-Na_2S_2O_3$) were negligible. This indicated that the geochemical conditions, in which soil-water reactions occurred to form groundwater with high vanadium concentrations, were under alkaline-oxidizing conditions. From the continuous leaching experiments, the pH and leached vanadium concentrations of the solution were in the ranges of 5.45~5.58 and $6{\sim}9{\mu}g/L$, respectively, under $CO_2$ supersaturation conditions for the first 15 days, whereas values under $O_2$ aeration conditions after the next 15 days increased to 8.48~8.62 and $9.7{\sim}12.2{\mu}g/L$, respectively. Vanadium concentrations from the latter continuous leaching experiments were similar to the average concentration of groundwater in Jeju Island ($11.2{\mu}g/L$). Furthermore leached vanadium concentrations in continuous leaching experiments were highly correlated with pH and Al, Cr, Fe, Mn and Zn concentrations. The results of this study showed that 1) alkaline-oxidizing conditions of water-rock (soil) interactions were essential to form vanadium-rich groundwater and 2) volcanic soils can be a potential source of vanadium in Jeju Island groundwater.

본 연구는 acid bake-water leaching system (AWS)를 이용하여 Au 정광으로부터 경제적이고 친환경적인 유용금속 용출을 위하여 황산염 용매제의 적용성을 파악하는 것이다. AWS 실험은 전기로를 이용하여 다양한 baking 온도($100^{\circ}C{\sim}500^{\circ}C$)와 황산염 용매제($H_2SO_4$, $K_2SO_4$, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, $MgSO_4$, $CaSO_4$) 조건에서 수행하였다. Baking 온도가 $400^{\circ}C$까지 증가할수록 유용금속의 용출률은 증가하였다. 용출시간에 따른 AWS 실험결과, 최대 용출률 조건은 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ 용매제이었다. 본 연구를 통하여 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ 용매제가 AWS를 이용한 유용금속 용출에 있어 효과적인 용매제로 사용가능함을 입증하였다.

본 연구목적은 비-가시성 금 정광(Au = 1,840.00 g/t)으로부터 금을 단체분리 시키기 위하여 마이크로웨이브-질산침출 실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 질산농도 효과, 마이크로웨이브 침출시간 효과 그리고 시료 첨가량 효과에 대하여 마이크로웨이브-질산침출 실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구의 실험조건에서는 금이 전혀 침출되지 않은 것으로 조사되었다. 불용성-잔류물의 무게는 질산 농도, 마이크로웨이브 침출시간 그리고 시료 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하는 경향으로 나타났다. 불용성-잔류물에 대하여 XRD 분석한 결과 석고와 anglesite가 나타나는데 이는 정광에 포함된 방해석과 방연석이 질산용액과 반응하여 생성된 것으로 사료된다. 불용성-잔류물에 대하여 납-시금법을 수행한 결과 정광보다 금함량이 최소 1.3배(Au = 2,464.70 g/t)에서 최대 28.8배(52,952.80 g/t)로 높게 나타났다. 그러나 납-시금법에서 회수된 금 함량은 gold nugget effect가 매우 심하게 나타났다. 향후, 마이크로웨이브-질산침출 실험에서 정광의 시료채취 방법을 개선하고, 더 작은 기공 크기의 여과지를 사용하여 침출용액을 여과하고 납-시금법에서 여과지를 태워서 시료로 투입하는 방법을 수행한다면 gold nugget effect를 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

전해생성염소를 산화제로 사용하여 폐인쇄회로기판으로부터 구리의 침출에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 구리침출반응과 관련된 실험인자들의 영향을 정량적으로 파악하기 위하여 실험계획법을 적용하였다. 실험결과의 분산분석으로부터 전류밀도, 침출온도, 염산농도 그리고 침출온도와 염산농도의 교호작용 등이 구리침출에 유효한 인자로 나타났다. 이들 중 구리침출에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 인자는 침출실험 결과해석의 95.7%출 차지하는 전류밀도로 분석되었다. 실험결과의 중회귀분석을 이용하여 침출실험 결과의 99%를 설명할 수 있는 침출 모델식을 얻었다. 또한 모델식을 통한 구리 등침출선의 예측으로부터 침출온도가 높아질수록 구리침출량의 증가에 대한 염산농도의 영향이 커지는 것을 알 수 있었다.

To quantify nutrient loading from emergent macrophytes through leaching in the littoral zones of Paldang Reservoir, we conducted incubation experiments using leaf litter of the emergent macrophyte, Zizaniz latifolia. To separate the leaching process from microbial decay, we used $HgCl_2$ to suppress microbial activity during the experiment. We measured electric conductivity, absorbance at 280nm, total nitrogen and dissolved inorganic nitrogen, total phosphorus and soluble reactive phosphorus, Na, K, Mg and Ca amounts in leaf litter and in water. In addition, we examined the effects of water temperature and ion concentrations of ambient water on the leaching process. A total of 6% of the initial ash-free dry mass of leaf litter was lost due to leaching during incubation (four days). Electric conductivity and A280 continued to increase and saturate during the incubation. To compare reaching rates of different nutrients, we fitted leaching dynamics with a hyperbolic saturation function [Y=AㆍX/(B+X)]. From these fittings, we found that ratios of leaching amounts to nutrient concentration in the litter were in the order of K > Na > Mg > P > Ca > N. Leaching from leaf litter of Z. latifolia was dependent on water temperature while it was not related with ion concentrations in the ambient water. Our results suggest that the leaching process of nutrients, especially phosphorus, from aquatic macrophytes provides considerable contribution to the eutrophication of the Paldang Reservoir ecosystem.

Thiobacillus ferrooxidans를 이용한 보다 효율적이고 현장에 직접 응용할 수 있는 우라늄 침출공정을 개발하기 위하여 배양조건의 확립과 교반 반응기 및 이중기포탑 반융기에서의 우라늄 침출에 대한 연구 를 수행하였다. 배지의 초기 $Fe^{2+}$ 농도는 원광석 40g/L에 대하여 16.2g/L를 이용하는 것이 적합하였으며, 원광석의 업자는 작을수록 우라늄 침출율이 증가하였다. 또한 원광석의 첨가량이 많을수록 우라늄의 침출속도는 증가하였으나 침출율은 약간씩 감소하였다. 교반 반 응기 빛 이중기포탑 반응기에서의 우라늄 침출에 대한 실험을 최적조건에서 수행한 결과 교반 반응기에 서는 진탕배양기에서와 통일하게 12일 배양시 39.3%의 침출율로 5.5mgjL의 우라늄을 얻었다. 반면 이중기포탑 반응기에서는 교반 반응기에 비하여 세 균수가 2.4배 증가하였으며, 우라늄의 침출율과 침출된 우라늄 농도도 각각 91.4%와 12.8mgjL으로 교반 반응기 보다 2.3배 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 이중기포탑 반응기에서는 충분한 양의 산소와 이산 화탄소의 공급과 원광석의 혼합이 잘됨으로써 세균 의 활성이 크게 증가하여 우라늄 침출이 향상된 것으로 추정된다.

The possibility of heavy metal pollution by contaminated roadside soils was studied under controlled conditions. The soil samples from roadside and those from a retention pond consisting of settling particles were characterized by the XRD analyses and the sequential extraction experiments. Characterization by sequential extraction, for roadside soil indicates elevate total concentrations of heavy metals. The leaching behavior of the samples under different pH and time conditions were also studied. Differences between both types of samples result mainly from the buffering effect of carbonates, present in roadside soils and lacking from settling particles. Acid leaching of the settling particles is equivalent to the sum of FI+FII+FIII, while the amounts leached from roadside soil are lower probably from kinetic reasons. The buffering effects of carbonates were found to greatly delay the onset of the leaching reactions and the extent of dissolution in most metals except for Ca and Mn. The study of leaching kinetics at pH of 6.5 and 5 showed that Cd and Zn reached the maximum possible concentration within 3 days, while Pb did not show any sign of dissolution at both ph values. The absolute amounts of dissolved Cd and Zn increased by 7 to 9 times by decreasing the pH from 6.5 to 5, indicating slightly acidified rain may result in significant metal dissolution. As deduced from both sequential extraction and leaching experiments, the relative mobility of heavy metals is found to be : Mn=Cd>Zn>>Pb>Fe, in spite of large differences in heavy metal contents and localizations.

This study is conducted to evaluate the leaching of contaminants from mine tailing by natural water and finally to estimate the leaching and transportation of heavy metal contaminants by rainfall. In order to identify contaminated heavy metal of soil, 17 soil, 2 tailing and 2 waste dump and 2 control samples were taken at mine area and analyzed total metal contents. The leaching experiments were conducted using distilled water. Cu, Pb, Zn was extracted from the reddish mine tailing in a short period time, especially the extraction rate of Cu (45.0%) was highest. The contaminants were leached from the yellowish mine tailing within an hour and the leaching rate of Cd (42.0%) and Zn (17.2%) were relatively high. The reddish soil from the waste dump showed leaching of Cu (5.1%), Pb (4.0%) and Zn (3.3%), however the leaching rate was low except Mi (14.2%). From the yellowish soil sampled from the dumping site, the leaching of Cu (8.2%) and Ni (9.7%) was high while the leaching of Zn (0.2%) were relatively low.

The leachability of boron in zinc borate (ZB)-modified oriented strandboard (OSB) from southern wood species was investigated in this study. The leaching experiments were conducted by exposing edge-sealed OSB samples under running water at $31^{\circ}C$ for 8, 24, 72, and 216 h. The results from leached samples were compared with those from the unleached controls. Boron leaching of the modified OSB occurred upon the initial water exposure, and the leaching rate decreased as the leaching time increased. Initial boric acid equivalent (BAE) level, wood species, and sample thickness swelling significantly influenced the leachability. There was no consistent effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on zinc borate leaching. The glue-line washing within OSB due to thickness swelling of the test samples under water and decomposition of the borate to form water-soluble boric acid were thought to be two possible causes for the observed leaching. The relationship between assayed BAE and leaching time followed a decaying exponential function for zinc borate treated OSB. From the boron/zinc ratio after each leaching period, boron element in ZB was more or less leachable. The material constant of the regression models allowed comparing the leachability of the modified OSB for various wood species. An unified leaching method for treated wood composite materials is needed.
