Possibility of the usage of sludge generated in coal mine drainage treatments as a briquette additive was investigated by the combination of industrial, elemental, and combustion experiments. A series of briquettes having 2% and 6% of sludge were used for the experiments. Compared to the control sample, our results show that all experimental values for the briquettes are very similar. In particular, it is worthy to note that there is no obvious difference in calorific values for the briquettes containing 2% or 6% of sludge. The calorific values are 4,250~4,360 kcal/kg, 4,240~4,250 kcal/kg, 4,180~4,210 kcal/kg, and 4,270~4,360 kcal/kg for the control sample, briquette containing 6% of Hambaek sludge, briquette containing 6% of Hamtae sludge, and briquette containing 2% of Hambaek sludge, respectively. Results of ash fusion temperature show that the temperature is greater than $1,550^{\circ}C$ for the control sample. However, the temperature for the briquettes with 6% of Hambaek sludge and 2% of Hambaek or Hamtae sludge is $1,510^{\circ}C$. For a briquette containing 6% of Hamtae sludge, the temperature of ash fusion is $1,530^{\circ}C$. After combustion, environmental impacts of the briquettes with sludge were tested. Little environmental influence was observed for the combusted briquettes with sludge.

This study assessed the feasibility of coal mine drainage sludge (CMDS) as a stabilizing agent for mercury contaminated soil through pot experiments and batch tests. In the pot experiments with 43 days of lettuce growth, the bioavailability of mercury in the amended soil and mercury content of the lettuce were decreased by 46% and 50%, respectively. These results were similar to those of the soil amended with the sulfide compound (FeS) generally used for mercury stabilization. Thus, CMDS could be an attractive mercury stabilizer in terms of industrial by-product recycling. Batch tests were conducted to examine mercury fractionation including reactions between the soil and acetic acid. The result showed that some elemental fraction changed to strongly bounded fraction rather than residual (HgS) fraction. This made it possible to conclude that mercury adsorption on oxides in CMDS was the major mechanism of stabilization.

A coal mine drainage sludge(designated as CMDS) is mainly generated during physicochemical treatment or electrical purification of the drainage abandoned mine that include dissolved heavy metal. To understand the possibility of an application of the dehydrated CMDS as the landfill cover medium of hygienic a reclaimed ground, an laboratory experiment was performed to investigate the physicochemical and geoengineering characteristics of the dehydrated CMDS. To improve the geoengineering characteristics of the dehydrated CMDS, the liquid limit, plasticity limit test, compaction method test, strength test, and hydraulic conductivity test ware performed with the lithification material mixed sludge. When the mixed ratio of the sludge and the lithification material was more than 1:06, the compaction method was A method, the moisture content less than 33.5%, the strength of mixed sludge was $8.2kg\;cm^{-2}$, the hydraulic conductivity was $2.7\times10^{-6}cm\;sec^{-1}$, the sludge was up to the landfill standard of US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA).

In this study, to stabilize the heavy metal in the contaminated soils, the column leaching test based on rainfall and pH value was performed by using coal mine drainage sludge(CMDS): which was generated during electrical purification of abandoned coal mine wastewater. Four types of testing column were used in this study. That were the CMDS and the heavy metal contaminated soils well mixed in 0 wt%, 1 wt%, 3 wt% and 3 wt% layered column. According to the investigation, when the influent pH was $5.5{\sim}6.2$, there were no heavy metal elution at all conditions, and when the influent pH was $3{\sim}3.3$, the order of Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr elution concentration was 3 wt% M(mixed)<3 wt% S(separation)<1 wt% M<0 wt% and the average elution concentration was quite low, the value was 0.005 mg/L. Therefore, CMDS can used as new stabilizer of the heavy metal in the contaminated soils.

본 고에서는 우리나라 폐 석탄광 광산배수의 자연정화처리시설현황과 향후 광산배수 수질개선을 위한 기술수요를 전망하였다. 우리나라 폐 석탄광에서는 현재 약 8만톤의 갱내수가 유출되고 있으며 약 50톤/일 이상 갱내수에 대해서 자연정화시설을 설치하여 갱내수 수질개선사업을 추진하고 있다. 13개 광산에 설치된 자연정화시설의 현장수질분석 및 설계내용을 검토한 결과 SAPS 공정이 Fe의 재용출 현상이 없고 성능면에서 편차가 적어 광산배수의 중화 및 금속 정화에 핵심 공정으로 파악되었다. SAPS 의 정화성능 및 수명에 미치는 물리적 영향은 슬러지 누적에 의한 투수 계수 감소와 체류시간 등이었다. 향후 자연정화시설의 성능을 지속시킬 수 있는 기술개발과 오염부하가 큰 갱내수 처리기술과 채굴적 현장 수질개선 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

In this research, equilibrium of adsorption and kinetics of As(V) removal were investigated. The coal mine drainage sludge(CMDS) was used as adsorbent. To find out the physical and chemical properties of CMDS, XRD (X-ray diffraction), XRF (X-ray fluorescence spectrometer) analysis were carried out. The CMDS was consist of 70% of goethite and 30% of calcite. From the results, an adsorption mechanism of As(V) with CMDS was dominated by iron oxides. Langmuir adsorption isotherm model was fitted well more than Freundlich isotherm adsorption model. Adsorption capacities of CMDS 1 was not different with CMDS 2 on aspect of amounts of arsenic adsorbed. The maximum adsorption amount of two CMDS were respectively 40.816, 39.682 mg/g. However, the kinetic of two CMDS was different. The kinetic was followed pseudo second order model than pseudo first order model. Concentrations of arsenic in all segments of the polymer in CMDS 2 does not have a constant value, but the rate was greater than the value of CMDS 1. Therefore, CMDS 2, which is containing polymer, is more effective for adsorbent to remove As(V).

본 연구에서는 석탄광산 배수(CMD)를 전기정화법으로 처리 시 발생되는 슬러지를 흡착제로 금속광산 산성배수(AMD)중 중금속 처리 시 pH와 온도변화에 따른 중금속 흡착 거동을 연구하고자 하였다. 실험결과 CMDS의 pH$_{zero\;point\; charge}$:(pH$_{zpc}$)는 5로 나타났다. pH영향의 경우 구리, 아연, 카드뮴, 철은 pH 증가에 따라 제거율은 증가하였고, 구리의 경우 흡착량은 pH와 상관없이 0.64 mg g$^{-1}$ sludge로 나타났다. pH 5 이상일 때 기타 중금속 흡착량은 pH3일 때의 1.1 배로 나타났고 크롬의 경우 pH 7 이상에서 다소 증가하였는데 이는 크롬이 $Cr(OH)_{6}^{3-}$형태로 미량 용출되었기 때문이다. 온도의 영향에서 pH3일때 온도증가에 따라 중금속 흡착량은 증가하였고, 선택도Cd>Fe>Zn>Cu순으로 나타났다. pH 5이상에서 최대 흡착량(q$_{max}$)은 Cu와 Zn의 경우 각각 2.747mg g$^{-1}$와 2.525mg g$^{-1}$로 더 이상의 흡착이 일어나지 않아 온도의 영향을 받지 않은 것으로 판단된다.

Soil aggregation begins with flocculation of clay particles triggered by interfacial reactions of polyvalent cation such as Ca²⁺ and Fe³⁺, and they are also known as important elements to control the mobility of arsenic in soil environment. The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of CMDS (coal mine drainage sludge) for soil loss reduction and stabilization of arsenic-contaminated soil in a 37% sloped farmland under rainfall simulation. The amount of soil loss decreased by 43% when CMDS was applied, and this result was not significantly different from the case of limestone application, which yielded 46% decrease of soil loss. However, the relative amount of dispersed clay particles in the sediment CMDS-applied soil was 10% lower than that of limestone-applied soil, suggesting CMDS is more effective than limestone in inducing soil aggregation. The concentrations of bioavailable arsenic in CMDS amended soil decreased by 46%~78%, which was lower than the amount in limestone amended soil. Therefore, CMDS can be used as an effective amendment material to reduce soil loss and stabilize arsenic in sloped farmland areas.

광산배수슬러지는 산성광산배수를 물리 화학적 혹은 전기적으로 정화할 때 주로 생성된다. 여러 분야에서 광산배수슬러지의 재활용 가능성을 연구하는 것은 중요한 일이다. 본 연구에서는 매립지 폐기물인 광산배수슬러지를 차수재와 복토재로의 재활용 적용성을 평가하였다. 두 part로 구성된 본 논문의 Part 1에서는, 광산배수슬러지, 차수재 형성을 위해 혼합 한 벤토나이트와 시멘트의 물리 화학적 성질을 pH 측정 및 XRD, XRF, FESEM로 분석하였다. 회분식 시험을 통하여 광산배수슬러지를 벤토나이트, 시멘트와 혼합하고 다짐도, 투수시험 및 일축시험을 통하여 최적혼합배율을 광산배수슬러지 1 : 벤토나이트 0.5 : 시멘트 0.3으로 결정하였다. 광산배수슬러지의 초기 투수계수는 $7.10{\times}10^{-7}cm/s$이었다. 광산배수슬러지는 유해물 용출시험을 통하여 환경에 안전하다는 것이 확인되었다. 본 논문의 Part 2에서는 라이시미터 (Lysimeter)를 사용하여 계절변화와 강우조건에 따른 하절기 건조/습윤 및 동절기 동결/융해의 과정을 통해 광산배수슬러지를 이용한 차수재 사용시 환경 적용성 가능성 및 안정성을 고찰하고자 하였다.

이 연구는 폐석탄광 주변 토양을 대상으로 토양 내 비소 안정화를 위한 광산슬러지 펠렛의 적용성을 확인하고 효과적인 안정화 효율평가 방법을 제시하고자 하였다. 함태, 동원, 동해, 옥동탄광 주변 경작지에서 토양을 채취하여 비소 농도를 확인한 결과 함태탄광을 제외한 나머지 폐석탄광 주변 토양에서 토양오염우려기준을 초과하는 비소농도를 보였다. 광산슬러지 펠렛은 미강과 광산슬러지를 혼합하여 제조하다. 분말형태의 광산슬러지에 비해 광산슬러지 펠렛은 운반과 안정화 시공과정에서 분진의 발생이 발생하지 않아 적용성이 높고 광산슬러지가 갖는 비소 안정화 효율을 유지하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 칼럼실험을 통해 폐석탄광 주변 토양 내 비소 안정화에 광산슬러지 펠렛의 활용 가능성을 평가한 결과 기존의 토양 안정화제로 주로 사용한 석회석과 제강슬래그 보다 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났으며, 토양 내 비소 안정화 효율 평가방법으로는 $0.43M\;HNO_3$또는 $1M\;NaH_2PO_4$용액을 이용한 용출법이 적합한 것으로 나타났다.
