내륙 및 임해공업단지와 관련하여 수질오염을 거론할 때 특정 공정과 연관된 오염원을 주로 지목한다. 그러나 대부분의 공업제품 생산공정에서는 금속과 기계장치의 기름과 윤활유 세척에 TCE(trichloroethylene)와 PCE(perchloroethylene)가 함유된 세척제를 많이 사용하고 있다. 우리나라 임해공업단지 배수로와 연안해역에서는 우려할만한 TCE와 PCE가 검출되고 있다. (중략)

We conducted simple experiments to consider the influence of nonlinear groundwater flow on Trichloroethylene (TCE) as Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquid (DNAPL) migration in a rough walled single fracture. A glass replica of a granite sample containing a rough single fracture was made and experiments were conducted over a range of Re. Observations are compared to the results of TCE migration tests that were conducted in two parallel glass plates over the same range of Re. Results show nonlinear groundwater flow in a single fracture affect TCE migration path and residual saturation of TCE.

The objective of this study was to clarify the possibility of adsorption trichloroethylene (TCE) of pretreated granular activated carbon (GAC). The chemical solution used for the acidic treatment was phosphoric acid. In addition, the effect of ultrasound on GAC assessed in this experiments. It was observed that the adsorption of TCE were different based on pH value of pretreated GAC. However, natural water such as groundwater has various factors like ionic strength and hardness etc. Therefore, more laboratory work is needed to study about pretreated GAC.

New visible photocatalyst(Nanovis$^{(R)}$) has been synthesized to overcome the barrier of limitation of UV light utilization of current $TiO_2$ photocatalyst. It was found that red shift of absorption spectrum to 550nm was achieved. Its physical properties were characterized by XRD, BET and TEM. It is also observed that Nanovis$^{(R)}$ has a photocatalytic activity for photodegradation of Trichloroethylene under visible light irradiation. V,VII group doped into substitutional sites of $TiO_2$ has proven to be indispensable for band-gap narrowing and photocatalytic activity. These test results lead us to conclude that Nanovis$^{(R)}$ can be used for IAQ improvemen and for photocatalytic water splitting to hydrogen.

The present paper examined the kinetics of photocatalytic degradation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) including gaseous trichloroethylene (TCE) and acetone. In this study, we examined the effects of the initial concentration of VOCs and the light intensity of ultra-violet (UV). A batch photo-reactor was specifically designed for this work. The photocatalytic degradation rate increased with the initial concentration of VOCs but remained almost constant beyond a certain concentration. It matched well with the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) kinetic model. When the effect of light intensity was concerned, it was found that photocatalytic degradation occurs in two regimes with respect to light intensity.

1. 서론 : 본 연구는 시간이 경과함에 따라 free volume감소로 나타나는 PTMSP[Poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne)] memebrane의 pysical aging을 늦추거나 방지할 목적으로 PTMSP polymer를 합성하여 여기에 hydroxy-terminated PDMS를 graft시켜 PTMSP/PDMS graft copolymer를 제조하였다. 용매증발법에 의해 PTMSP memebrane 및 PTMSP/PDMS graft copolymer memebrane을 제막한 후 PTMSP막의 물리적 노화를 관찰하기 위한 시점에서 조업시간에 따른 이들 막의 transport property을 살펴 보았다. 또한 이들 polymer을 사용하여 0.5 wt%의 희박 dope solution을 제조한 후 여기에 상전환법에 의해 제조된 비대칭 PEI(polyetherimide)지지막을 dip-doping시켜 PTMSP-PEI, PTMSP/PDMS-PEI 복합막을 제조하여 상기의 두 막과 투과증발 특성을 상호 비교하여 보았다. 그리고 객관적 비교 자료를 얻을 목적으로 PDMS막과 PDMS-PEI 복합막을 각각 제막하여 동일조건에서 실험을 수행하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 수중에 미량 용해된 chloroform, trichloroethylene, perchlororthylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane 등의 유기염소계화합물 제거 실험을 통해 PTMSP, PTMSP/PDMS 등의 dense membrane과 asymmetric composite membrane 사이의 상관관계 및 이들 막들의 투과특성을 서로 비교, 분석하는데 목적을 두었다.

In this study plastic optical fibers(POFs) were considered as light-transmitting media and substrates for the potential use in photocatalytic environmental purification system. After the characteristics of POFs in terms of light transmittance and absorption were determined at the beginning, the detailed investigation was further performed through the photocatalytic degradation of trichloroethylene(TCE), iso-propanol and etc. with TiO$_2$-coated optical fiber reactor systems(POFR). It is concluded that the use of POfs is preferred to quartz optical fibers(QOFs) since the advantages such as ease of handling, lower cost, relatively reasonable light attenuation at the wavelength of near 400nm can be obtained. Various geometrical reactor shapes have been constructed and applied for the last one and half years. For the use of POF in water phase treatment, however, more detailed scientific and engineering aspects should be envisaged. This case requires a suitable mixture to obtain more stable and innocuous immobilization of photocatalyst on POF.

Catalytic wet oxidation of ppm levels of trichloroethylene (TCE) in water has been conducted using $TiO_2$-supported cobalt oxides at a given temperature and weight hourly space velocity. 5% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ might be the most promising catalyst for the wet oxidation at $36^{\circ}C$ although it exhibited a transient behavior in time on-stream activity. Not only could the bare support be inactive for the wet decomposition reaction, but no TCE removal also occurred by the process of adsorption on $TiO_2$ surface. The catalytic activity was independent of all particle sizes used, thereby representing no mass transfer limitation in intraparticle diffusion. Characterization of the $CoO_x$ catalyst by acquiring XPS spectra of both fresh and used Co surfaces gave different surface spectral features of each $CoO_x$. Co $2p_{3/2}$ binding energy of Co species exposed predominantly onto the outermost surface of the fresh catalyst appeared at 781.3 eV, which is very similar to the chemical states of $CoTiO_x$ such as $Co_2TiO_4$ and $CoTiO_3$. The spent catalyst possessed a 780.3 eV main peak with a satellite structure at 795.8 eV. Based on XPS spectra of reference Co compound, the TCE-exposed Co surfaces could be assigned to be in the form of mainly $Co_3O_4$. XRD measurements indicated that the phase structure of Co species in 5% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst even before reaction is quite comparable to the diffraction lines of external $Co_3O_4$ standard. A model structure of $CoO_x$ present on titania surfaces would be $Co_3O_4$, encapsulated in thin-film $CoTiO_x$ species consisting of $Co_2TiO_4$ and $CoTiO_3$, which may be active for the decomposition of TCE in a flow of water.

Heterogeneously-catalyzed oxidation of aqueous phase trichloroethylene (TCE) over supported metal oxides has been conducted to establish an approach to eliminate ppm levels of organic compounds in water. A continuous flow reactor system was designed to effect predominant reaction parameters in determining catalytic activity of the catalysts for wet TCE decomposition as a model reaction. 5 wt.% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst exhibited a transient period in activity vs. on-stream time behavior, suggesting that the surface structure of the $CoO_x$ might be altered with on-stream hours; regardless, it is probable to be the most promising catalyst. Not only could the bare support be inactive for the wet decomposition reaction at $36^{\circ}C$, but no TCE removal also occurred by the process of adsorption on $TiO_2$ surface. The catalytic activity was independent of all particle sizes used, thereby representing no mass transfer limitation in intraparticle diffusion. Very low TCE conversion appeared for $TiO_2$-supported $NiO_x$ and $CrO_x$ catalysts. Wet oxidation performance of supported Cu and Fe catalysts, obtained through an incipient wetness and ion exchange technique, was dependent primarily on the kinds of the metal oxides, in addition to the acidic solid supports and the preparation routes. 5 wt.% $FeO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst gave no activity in the oxidation reaction at $36^{\circ}C$, while 1.2 wt.% Fe-MFI was active for the wet decomposition depending on time on-stream. The noticeable difference in activity of the both catalysts suggests that the Fe oxidation states involved to catalytic redox cycle during the course of reaction play a significant role in catalyzing the wet decomposition as well as in maintaining the time on-stream activity. Based on the results of different $CoO_x$ loadings and reaction temperatures for the decomposition reaction at $36^{\circ}C$ with $CoO_x/TiO_2$, the catalyst possessed an optimal $CoO_x$ amount at which higher reaction temperatures facilitated the catalytic TCE conversion. Small amounts of the active ingredient could be dissolved by acidic leaching but such a process gave no appreciable activity loss of the $CoO_x$ catalyst.
