Oysters are the most abundantly harvested type of shellfish in Korea. As export of this marine product increases, oysters have greatly contributed to an increase in fishing income. As the oyster aquaculture industry has rapidly grown since the late 1990s, issues of oyster-shell processing that occur in production processes have re-emerged as important topics in the oyster industry. The amount of oyster shells harvested in 2019 is estimated to be approximately 300,000 tons. With reductions in demand for pyrolytic fertilizer and feed, which are currently the greatest sources of demand, unprocessed shell quantities have doubled compared to 2018, causing them to be an issue once more. Such oyster-shell processing also incurs great costs, and a total of forty-six billion three hundred fifty million Korean won (46,350,000,000 KRW) has been provided from 2009 to 2020 for the use of oyster shells as a resource. According to current Korean laws, oyster shells are considered to be industrial waste if more than 300 kilograms are sent out in a day. Collection and processing must be conducted by a waste-consignment company. Consequently, there are many limitations to the use of oyster shells in Korea as a resource. However, in Japan, only oyster-shell waste is regulated by waste-processing As a result, local governments may apply exceptions when utilized as organic matter. Consequently, in Japan, oyster shells are being used as resources in more diverse fields than in Korea. This study observes the conditions and problems of oyster-shell processing in Korea and attempts to find new domestic oyster-shell resource solutions in light of Japan's recycling practices.

In order to investigate change of shear strength of coastal muddy sediment by mixing pretreated oyster shells with different pyrolysis temperatures and particle sizes, a vane shear test was carried out. The shear strength of the sediment with oyster shells pyrolyzed at 800℃ was twice higher than that of the control, with a maximum shear strength of ca. 0.2 kPa. The Ca2+ concentration in the pore water was the highest at sediment with oyster shells pyrolyzed at 800℃ with a concentration of ca. 790 mg/L. From the above results, it is concluded that the application of the oyster shells pyrolyzed at 800℃ can affect the increase in shear strength of coastal sediments through the aggregation of clay particles and pozzolanic reactions with sediments.

굴패각을 혼합한 해성점토를 매립재료로 활용하기 위한 기초자료를 얻기 위해 삼축실험을 실시하여 혼합토의 전단 변형특성을 검토했다. 일련의 실험을 통해, 굴패각의 혼합율이 증가하면 이종혼합토의 강도가 증가한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고, 이러한 강도개선 효과는 순수점토와 같이 구속압에 기인한 마찰력뿐만 아니라, 굴패각의 골격 구조 및 형성과정에 의해서도 영향을 받고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 혼합토의 할선탄성계수 및 다일러턴시 특성으로부터 굴패각 혼합에 의해 나타나는 영향을 파악하였고 보정계수의 개념을 도입해 전단과정의 굴패각 골격구조의 변화를 고찰했다.

Much oyster shell is breeding by character and conduct of oyster-industry for a long time among them. An experimental study was carried out to investigate the recycling possibility of waste oyster shells, which induce environmental pollutions by piling up out at the open or the temporary reclamation. The purpose of this study is to develope eco-friendly binder using waste oyster shells, and to reinforce soils fur soft soil improvement. In this paper, a series of laboratory tests including compressive pot tests were performed to evaluate characteristics of soils treated by developed waste oyster shells with different water content of soils. Based on test results, eco-friendly Supporter manufactured from waste oyster shells were estimated as good resource materials for soft soil improvements. We got the conclusion by a series of experiment, It is verified that change of pH of soil is improved by mixing with oyster shells. The homogenization method for deducing apparent of oyster shells, which can consider micro-structure of mixed soil, is introduced. The improvement treatment leaded to enlarge fluctuation of soil moisture content. The effect of calcium concentration was good though improvement treatment of physical property. In addition, the crop yield in amelioration plots increased. It means that the increase of crop yield was caused by improvement of soil physical properties rather than improvement of calcium concentration.

산업폐기물 중 하나인 굴패각(Oyster Shell, OS)에 대한 건설재료로써의 활용성을 검토하기 위해 굴패각을 혼합한 콘크리트의 장기역학적 특성과 내구성을 실험적으로 평가하였다. 실험결과에 따르면 굴패각을 10% 대체한 콘크리트의 장기강도는 굴패각을 대체하지 않은 콘크리트와 유사한 결과를 보였으나, 굴패각을 20% 대체한 콘크리트의 장기강도는 감소하는 것을 보였다. 즉, 일정 한도 이상의 굴패각 대체는 콘크리트의 장기재령 강도에 열화요인으로 작용할 수 있는 것으로 나타났고, 굴패각의 대체에 따른 탄성계수 저하는 대체율에 거의 비례적으로 저하하였으며 굴패각의 대체율 20%에서 약 10∼15% 저하하였다. 굴패각의 대체율이 증가할수록 건조수축 발생량은 증가하였으며 기존의 건조수축과 크리프 모델식은 굴패각의 증가에 따른 영향을 잘 반영하지 못하였고 이에 대한 예측식의 보정이 필요하다. 잔골재의 일부를 굴패각으로 대체하여도 콘크리트의 동결융해 저항성, 탄산화 저항성, 및 화학침식 저항성에는 나쁜 영향을 미치지 않으며, 투수 저항성은 오히려 크게 개선되었다.

This study evaluated the dewatering efficiency of inorganic dehydrating agents that contain oyster shells. A filter press dehydrator was used for this study. The experiments were performed by the single injection of calcium-based chemicals, the single injection of oyster shells, and the mixed injection of oyster shells and calcium-based chemicals. The moisture content of the dewatered cake generated after dehydration confirmed that the best dewatering efficiency was found at the mixing ratios of CaCO₃ to sludge, oyster shell to sludge, and inorganic dehydrating agent to sludge of 3:1, 10:1, and 1.5:2.5:1, respectively. The moisture contents exhibited less than 58% when the injection mixing ratio of inorganic dehydrating agent to sludge was 1.5:2.5:1. From EPS, SEM, and EDX analysis, it was found that the calcium adsorbed on the sludge surface could reduce extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) and enhanced the dewaterbility. Based on the above results, it is considered possible to apply inorganic dehydrating agents containing recycled oyster shells in sludge dewatering in order to reduce sludge.

The object of this study is to find out the characteristics of waste oyster shells and determine the proper dosage of powdered waster oyster shells as the conditioning agent for water treatment sludge dewatering process. The large amount of waste oyster shells which discharges from the oyster farming, occurs serious environmental hazards. However, oysters shell contain large amount(about 38% by weight) of alkaline minerals, such as calcium and magnesium and so on, this natural material is thought to have the petential ability as a good conditioning agent. The results of this study are as follows. The optimum condition for improvement of the water treatment sludge dewaterability is when 6 g of waste oyster shell powder added to 200$m\ell$ of water treatment sludge. At optimum condition, the solid contents can reach to 31.78% and the specific resistance of conditioned sludge is 0.16$\times$10$^{8}$ sec$^2$/g. However, exceeding the of powdered waste oyster shell is needed to get the effective result. Consequently, the waste oyster shell can be a recyclable material to improve the dewaterability of water treatment sludges.

본 연구는 남해안 연안에 방치되고 있는 굴패각을 세골재 크기의 5.0mm이하로 분쇄하여 실제 현장에서 사용가능한 세골재 대체재로 활용하여 굴패각을 사용한 콘크리트의 성질 및 제반 강도들에 대해 연구한 것이다. 이를 위해 기본 실험과 주요 변화 요인들에 대해 1,028개의 공시체 및 시험체를 제작 실험한 결과 굴패각을 사용한 콘크리트 제반 강도는 일반콘크리트 강도와 최대 10%정도 차이를 보였으며 세골재 대체재로서 우수한 굴패각 입도크기는 5.0mm이하를 균등하게 취한 경우로 약 30%까지는 대체 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 본 논문에서는 굴패각을 사용한 제반 콘크리트 강도상호 관계식들을 제시하였고 이의 탄성계수는 굴패각 대체율이 증가할수록 감소하였는데 대체율 10%까지는 거의 유사한 값을 보였다.

Arsenic (As) is known to be very toxic and carcinogenic to human beings. Arsenic contaminated soil was collected from a timber mill site at Busan Metropolitan City, Korea, where chromated copper arsenate (CCA) had been used to protect wood from rotting caused by insects and microbial agents. The soil was stabilized using both natural oyster shells (NOS) and calcinated oyster shells (POS). The calcination of natural oyster shells was accomplished at a high temperature in order to activate quicklime from calcite. Two different oyster shell particle sizes (-#10 mesh and -#20 mesh) and curing periods of up to 28 days were investigated. The stabilization effectiveness was evaluated based on the Korean Standard Test (KST) method (1N HCl extraction). The stabilization results showed that the POS treatment was more effective than the NOS treatment at immobilizing the As in the contaminated soils. A significant As reduction (96%) was attained upon a POS treatment at 20 wt% and passed the Korean warning standard of 20 mg/kg ('Na' area). However, an As reduction of only 47% (169 mg/kg) was achieved upon a NOS treatment at 20 wt%. The -#20 mesh oyster shells seem to perform better than the -#10 materials. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) results showed that As immobilization was strongly associated with Ca and O in the presence of Al and Si.
