원자력 발전소에서 유출되는 세슘은 인체의 유해성으로 인하여, 이를 안전하게 처리하는 기술이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수용액에 용해된 세슘을 효율적으로 제거하고자, triethylenediamine (TEDA) 첨착 공정을 활성탄소에 적용하였다. 이 실험에서는 활성탄소 표면을 다양한 TEDA(2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, 12.5%) 농도로 화학적 개질을 하였으며, 세슘 제거효율 평가에 의하여 최적의 TEDA 농도가 5.0%임을 구할 수 있었다. 또한, 5.0% TEDA로 첨착된 활성탄을 사용하여 5.0과 10.0 mg/L의 세슘을 처리하였을 때, 제거효율은 각각 71.5%와 61.1%를 나타내었다. 그리고 온도 변화에 의한 흡착동력학 실험으로부터, 화학적 흡착이 이루어짐을 알 수 있었다. 이 연구를 통하여 얻어진 새로운 복원 기술은 지표수와 지하수에 함유된 세슘을 실용적으로 제거하는데 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

The Korea Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences plans to produce ²²⁵Ac, a therapeutic radio-pharmaceutical for precision oncology, such as prostate cancer. Radon, a radioactive gas, is generated by radium, the target material for producing ²²⁵Ac. The radon concentration is expected to be about 2000 Bq·m^-3. High-concentration radon-generating facilities must meet radioactive isotope emission standards by lowering the radon concentration. However, most existing studies concerning radon removal using activated carbon filters measured radon levels at concentrations lower than 1000 Bq·m^-3. This study measured ²²²Rn removal of coconut-based activated carbon filter under a high radon concentration of about 2000 Bq·m^-3. The ²²²Rn removal efficiency of activated carbon impregnated with triethylenediamine was also measured. As a result, the ²²²Rn removal amount of the activated carbon filter showed sufficient removal efficiency in a ²²²Rn concentration environment of about 2000 Bq·m^-3. In addition, despite an expectation of low radon reduction efficiency of Triethylenediamine-impregnated activated carbon, it was difficult to confirm a significant difference in the results. Therefore, it is considered that activated carbon can be used as a radioisotope exhaust filter regardless of whether or not Triethylenediamine is impregnated. The results of this study are expected to be used as primary data when building an air purification system for radiation safety management in facilities with radon concentrations of about 2000 Bq·m^-3.

Samples of active carbon of $1150\;m^2/g$ surface area were impregnated with ammoniacal salts of copper, chromium and silver, with and without triethylenediamine. The samples of impregnated carbon were aged at $50^{\circ}C$, with and without 90% RH (relative humidity), for a little more than one year and chemically evaluated periodically. Initially copper (II) and chromium (VI) reduced very fast in the samples in humid atmosphere to the extent of 30% and 60% respectively in four months. These values were found to be unaffected by the presence of triethylenediamine (TEDA) indicating that the chemical did not retard the reduction process of chromium (VI) and copper (II). However, in the absence of humidity the reduction of the impregnants was significantly less (10-12%, w/w) in four months. It was quite evident; therefore, that the moisture was mainly responsible for the reduction of chromium (VI) and copper (II) species in impregnated carbons. The prolonged ageing of the samples with and without triethylenediamme after four months with and without humid atmosphere showed that the extent of reduction of chromium (VI) was very low, i.e. 5-10% and of copper (II) was 2-25%. Silver is not reduced due to carbon, as it remained unchanged in concentration on storage. The impregnated carbon samples (100 g) without triethylenediamine, which were aged at room temperature for 5 years in absence of humidity and unaged when evaluated against cyanogen chloride (CNCl) at a concentration of 4 mg/L and airflow rate of 30 lpm showed a high degree of protection (80- 110 minutes).

In this paper, for the first time, the electroanalytical study of Triethylenediamine, TEDA was done on a typically graphene modified carbon paste electrode (Gr/CPE) in pH=10.5 of phosphate buffer solutions (PBS). The surface morphology of the bare and modified electrodes was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The electro-oxidation of TEDA was investigated at the surface of modified electrode. The results revealed that the oxidation peak current of TEDA at the surface of Gr/CPE is 2.70 times than that shown at bare-CPE. A linear calibration plot was observed in the range of 1.0 to 202.0 ppm. In this way, the detection limit was found to be 0.18 ppm. The method was then successfully applied to determination of TEDA in aqueous samples obtained from two kinds of activated carbon from the masks of war. On the other hand, density functional theory (DFT) method at B3LYP/6-311++G** level of theory and a conductor-like Polarizable Continuum Model (CPCM) was used to calculate the $pK_a$ values of TEDA. The energies of lowest unoccupied molecular orbital ($E_{LUMO}$) and highest occupied molecular orbital ($E_{HOMO}$), gap energy (${\Delta}E$) and some thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy of TEDA and its conjugate acid ($HT^+$) were calculated. The results of calculated $pK_a$ were found to be in good agreement with the experimental values.

Thriethylenediamine(TEDA)주입 활성탄층에 의한 공기중의 methyliodide 제거 메카니즘이 조사되었다. 실험 결과, 공기 유속이 20cm/sec 이상일 때는 기공확산이 율속 단계였으며, 10cm/sec 일때는 기공확산 저항과 외부 물질 전달 저항이 모두 총괄 물질 전달 저항에 기여하였다. 공기중 수증기가 존재하지 않는 건조 조건하에서의 TEDA 함침 탄소층의 성능을 묘사하기 위한 흡착 모델이 제안되었다. 계산된 값은 실험 결과와 잘 일치하였다.

A composite iodine sorbent was obtained in the form of porous polymer matrix with activated carbon particles impregnated with triethylenediamine deposited on its surface. A comparative assessment of the radioactive methyliodide capturing efficiency by the composite sorbent and a sample of industrial charcoal sorbent was conducted. It was shown that under the selected testing conditions, the hydraulic resistance of the composite sorbent is lower, and the sorption capacity is higher than that of the industrial charcoal sorbent. A method for comparing the effectiveness of iodine sorbents, based on the calculation of the ratio of the sorption capacity index to the minimum capacity index, needed for the required purification degree was proposed.

This study is devoted to the ability of carbon fiber material samples impregnated with various amounts of barium iodide and triethylenediamine to remove radioactive methyliodide from air streams. The main sorption characteristics of impregnated UVIS® carbon fiber were determined and the use of this material for purifying of technological gas flows at nuclear power plants was evaluated. The methyliodide trapping efficiency by samples impregnated with barium iodide, TEDA, and their mixture was 83.4 ± 0.8%; 93.1 ± 0.6% and 93.5 ± 0.7% respectively, under the same conditions. The study established a significantly higher capacity (8.3 ± 0.07 mg/cm²) of samples impregnated simultaneously with both chemical compounds toward methyliodide. Under the same test conditions, the values of this parameter for the samples impregnated separately with TEDA and BaI₂ were 2.85 ± 0.05 mg/cm² and 0.86 ± 0.04 mg/cm², respectively.

화학적 무기 중 혈액작용제는 전자전달계 내 효소의 철 이온과 반응하고 세포호흡을 정지시켜 사망을 초래한다. 혈액작용제는 활성탄의 미세공보다 분자크기가 작아 화학적 흡착이 유일한 제독방법이다. 본 연구는 SG 생활안전에서 개발한 SG-1 가스 여과기를 이용하여 혈액작용제 시아노겐 클로라이드(CK) 가스의 유입에 따른 유동해석을 수행하였다. 구리, 은, 아연 및 몰리브데늄 이온이 첨착된 ASZM TEDA 활성탄을 적용하여 가스 여과기 제작 시험 규정에 따라 화학적 흡착 모사를 수행하였으며 흡착 Kinetic을 적용하기 위해 선 수행된 흡착 베드에서 CK 가스 흡착 실험 결과를 분석하였다. 화학적 흡착을 통해 발생되는 가스 여과기 내부 압력강하 및 가스 흡착 질량 등 주요 변수의 동적거동을 예측하였다. CFD에서 다공성 물질을 적용할 때 사용하는 Ergun 방정식 대신 Granular와 Packed bed를 사용하여 활성탄 적용 가능 결과를 확인하였으며 시간에 따른 흡착 및 유속에 따른 흡착의 유동 해석에 대한 동적 모사를 수행하였다.
