Waste paper cup was sulfonated to be used as ion exchanger. Removal characteristic of copper and lead ion by prepared ion exchanger was investigated. The sulfonation was conformed by the high intensity band of $SO_3H$ group around 1100~$1160cm^{-1}$. The synthesized ion exchanger had greater removal ability for copper and lead ion than the original waste paper cup. Ion exchange system reached the final equilibrium plateau within 30min. The maximum removal capacities $q_{max}$ were calculated as 9.79mg/g fur copper and 15.95mg/g for lead, respectively. The affinity of lead based on a weight was higher than that of copper. The ion exchange phenomena appeared to follow a typical Freundlich isotherm.

Several effects on Pb$^{2+}$ removal by crab shell from aqueous solution were investigated. As the increase of initial Pb$^{2+}$ concentration and decrease of initial crab shell concentration, the time required to reach an equilibrium state and the residual Pb$^{2+}$ concentration increased. In our experimental ranges, the optimum initial Pb$^{2+}$ concentration and crab shell concentration were below 103 mg/$\ell$ and over 0.5 mg/$\ell$, respectively. Also, in order to investigate the mechanism of Pb$^{2+}$ removal by crab shell in aqueous solution, the crab shell was compared with chitosan and chitin on aspects of Pb$^{2+}$ removal capacity and Pb$^{2+}$ removal rate. The Pb$^{2+}$ removal by crab shell was greater than that by chitin and chitosan. The role of chitin was not so great in Pb$^{2+}$ removal by crab shell. The Pb$^{2+}$ removal by chitosan was not exactly correlated to the molecular weight of chitosan. weight of chitosan.

The study was conducted to investigate the removal of heavy metals by using Hydroxyapatite(HAp) made from waste oyster shells and wastewater with high concentration of phosphorus. The maximum calcium concentration for the production of HAp in this study was released up to 361 mg/L at pH of 3 by elution experiments. When the pH was at adjusted 6, the maximum calcium released concentration was 41 mg/L. During the elution experiment, most of the calcium was released within 60 minutes. This reaction occurred at both pH levels of 3 and 6. The result of the XRD analysis for the HAp product used in this study shows the main constituent was HAp, as well as OCP. The pH was 8.6. As the temperature increased, the main constituent did not vary, however its structure was crystallized. When the pH was maintained at 3, the removal efficiency decreased as the heavy metal concentration increased. The order of removal efficiency was as follows: $Fe^{2+}$(92%), $Pb^{2+}$(92%) > $Cu^{2+}$(20%) > $Cd^{2+}$(0%). Most of these products were dissolved and did not produce sludge in the course of heavy metals removal. As the heavy metal concentration increased at pH of 6, the removal efficiency increased. The removal efficiencies in all heavy metals were over 80%. From the analysis of the sludge after reaction with heavy metals, the HAp was detected and the OCP peak was not observed. Moreover, lead ion was observed at the peaks of lead-Apatite and lead oxidant. In the case of cadmium, copper and iron ions, hydroxide forms of each ion were also detected.

The feasibility of using volcanic ash for lead ion removal from wastewater was evaluated. The adsorption experiments were carried out in batch tests using volcanic ash that was treated with either NaOH or HCl prior to the use. Volcanic ash dose, temperature and initial Pb(II) concentration were chosen as 3 operational variables for a $2^3$ factorial design. Ash dose and concentration were found to be significant factors affecting Pb(II) adsorption. The removal of Pb(II) was enhanced with increasing volcanic ash dose and with decreasing the initial Pb(II) concentration. Pb(II) adsorption on the volcanic ash surface was spontaneous reaction and favored at high temperatures. Calculation of Gibb's free energy indicated that the adsorption was endothermic reaction. The equilibrium parameters were determined by fitting the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and Langmuir model better fitted to the data than Freundlich model. BTV(base-treated volcanic ash) showed the maximum adsorption capacity($Q_{max}$) of 47.39mg/g. A pseudo second-order kinetic model was fitted to the data and the calculated $q_e$ values from the kinetic model were found close to the values obtained from the equilibrium experiments. The results of this study provided useful information about the adsorption characteristics of volcanic ash for Pb(II) removal from aqueous solution.

The sorption of metal ions with low-cost adsorbents plays an important role in sustainable development. In the present study, the efficacy of sugarcane bagasse, rain tree fruits (samaneasaman), banana stem and their mixtures, used as bio-sorbents, in the removal of Cu(II) and Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution is evaluated. Batch studies are conducted, and residual ions were measured using Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP)-atomic spectrometer. Effect of pH, initial metal ion concentration, reaction time and adsorbent dosage are studied. The Pb(II) removal efficiency was observed to be 97.88%, 98.60% and 91.74% for rain tree fruits, banana stem and a mixture of adsorbents respectively. The highest Cu(II) ion removal was observed for sugarcane bagasse sorbent with an efficiency of 82.10% with a pH of 4.5 and a reaction time of 90 min. Finally, desorption studies were carried out to study the leaching potential of adsorbent, and it was found that the adsorbent is stable in water than the other leaching agents such as HCl, ammonium acetate, Sodium EDTA. Hence, these adsorbents can be effectively used for the removal of these heavy metals.

For the purpose of electrolytic treatment of wastewater containing various heavy metals, the BPBE Cell of batch and continuous type was considered and experimented. Some results from this study were summarized as follows: 1. When the artificial wastewater containing 500 mg/l of the concentration of various heavy metallic ion was electrolyzed in BPBE Cell of batch type, the removal efficicency was over 95% in cadmiun (II), lead (II), chromium (Ⅵ) and over 85% in copper (II), chromium (III). 2, As granular activated carbon packed in BPBE Cell, coconut shell was superior to lignite and the removal efficiency was the highest when the activated carbon was 4/6 mesh, the voltage was 20V. 3. When the heavy metallic ion in wastewater was electrolyzed in BPBE Cell of continuous type, about 1,000mg of heavy metal per 1kg of coconut sell could be removed. 4. The treatment method of heavy metallic ion in wastewater by BPBE Cell cost less than in the former chemical treatment method and the coconut shell packed in BPBE Cell could be regenerated by chemical method.

In this study, variation of electrochemical parameters and characteristics of lead immobilization due to phosphoric acid injection in soil were studied during electrokinetic remediation of lead contaminated soil. TCLP result showed about 100% of soil was satisfied TCLP regulation criteria. And injected ion from cathode reservoir by ionmigration was proportionate to concentration of phosphoric acid and elapsed time. Therefore, when removal is infeasible or not cost-effective, in situ immobilization method would be more effective.

톱밥을 이용한 중금속 제거에 관한 연구가 수행되어졌다. 납, 구리, 카드뮴 이온들 중에서 납의 흡착능이 pH 4에서 0.22 mmol/g-dry mass로서 가장 높았다. 톱밥의 표면상태와 납이온의 존재 여부는 FT-IR, SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy) 그리고, EDX(Energy Dispersive X-ray)에 의해서 확인되어졌다. 초기 납 농도가 100ppm일때 0.5g의 톱밥으로 약 90%의 납 이온을 제거할 수 있었다. Langmuir model 식을 이용하여 납 이온에 대한 등온흡착선을 묘사하였으며 실험결과는 모델식에서 얻어진 결과와 잘 부합되었다. 또한 대부분의 흡착은 60분 내에 이루어졌으며 납 이온 용액의 pH는 5.8에서 4.5로 시간에 따라 감소하였다.

본 연구에서는 리그노셀룰로스 가수분해물과 유사한 조성을 갖는 합성 용액을 이용하여 무독화 실험을 진행하였다. 생물학적 무독화 방법으로는 peroxidase와 laccase와 같은 효소를 이용하였고, 이온교환과 흡착과 같은 물리화학적 방법으로는 이온교환수지와 활성탄을 이용하였다. 효소 중 peroxidase는 페놀계 화합물의 제거에 탁월한 효율을 보였으며, 5-HMF와 furfural은 활성탄에 의해 거의 모두 제거되었고, 아세트산은 음이온교환수지를 사용하는 것이 가장 효율적이었다. 활성탄과 이온교환수지는 다소간의 당손실을 일으켰다. 무독화 방법은 당화액에 포함되어 있는 저해물질의 조성을 고려하여 결정되어야 한다.

다당류의 일종인 알긴산을 이용한 중금속 제거에 관한 연구가 수행되어졌다. 알긴산은 pH 4에서 480mg/g의 납 이온을 흡착하였으며 이것은 다른 생물흡착제에 비해서 약 2배 정도의 높은 흡착능이다. 납 이온에 대한 등온흡착선을 묘사하기 위하여 Langmuir model 식을 이용하였으며 실험결괴는 모델식에서 얻어진 결과와 잘 부합되었다. 온도가 증가함에 따라서 흡착능은 증가하였으며 이는 알긴산과 납 이온의 흡착은 흡열반응임을 보여준다. 납 이온의 흡착에 대한 알칼리 금속(칼슘, 마그네슘 이온)의 영향은 거의 없었으며 대부분의 흡착은 30분 내에 이루어졌다. 구리, 수은, 스트론튬, 세슘 과 같은 다른 금속 이온에 대한 흡착능도 조사되었다.
