The activated carbon produced from rubber wood sawdust by chemical activation using phosphoric acid have been utilized as an adsorbent for the removal of Cu(II) from aqueous solution in the concentration range 5-40 mg/l. Adsorption experiments were carried out in a batch process and various experimental parameters such as effect of contact time, initial copper ion concentration, carbon dosage, and pH on percentage removal have been studied. Adsorption results obtained for activated carbon from rubber wood sawdust were compared with the results of commercial activated carbon (CAC). The adsorption on activated carbon samples increased with contact time and attained maximum value at 3 h for CAC and 4 h for PAC. The adsorption results show that the copper uptake increased with increasing pH, the optimum efficiency being attained at pH 6. The precipitation of copper hydroxide occurred when pH of the adsorbate solution was greater than 6. The equilibrium data were fitted using Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm equation. The kinetics of sorption of the copper ion has been analyzed by two kinetic models, namely, the pseudo first order and pseudo second order kinetic model. The adsorption constants and rate constants for the models have been determined. The process follows pseudo second order kinetics and the results indicated that the Langmuir model gave a better fit to the experimental data than the Freundlich model. It was concluded that activated carbon produced using phosphoric acid has higher adsorption capacity when compared to CAC.

Copper is an elemental ion in living organisms. CopP from Helicobacter Pylori (HpCopP) is a copper(I)-binding protein and was suggested as regulator of copper metabolism in vivo. Previously, the metal binding property of HpCopP for Ag(I), Cu(I), and Cu(II) as well as the tertiary structure of HpCopP was shown. In this study, the dynamic profiles of HpCopP depending on metal binding were studied using ${^1H}-^{15}N$ steady-state NOE analysis. The heteroNOE experiment was performed for apo-CopP or metal-bound CopP. The obtained NOE values were analyzed and compared to figure out the effect of metals on the structural flexibility of HpCopP. As a result, Ag(I) and Cu(I) ions improved the rigidity of the structure while Cu(II) ion increased the flexibility of the structure, suggesting the oxidation of the CXXC motif decreases the structural stability of HpCopP.

본 연구는 탄소나노튜브(MWCNT)와 활성탄을 이용한 니켈과 구리의 흡착특성을 평가하였다. 산성조건에서 활성탄의 제거성능이 낮은 반면, MWCNT만 니켈과 구리를 흡착 제거하는데 효율적이었다. MWCNT와 중금속의 흡착반응은 유사 일차반응식을 따랐다. 초기 pH가 중성일 때, 니켈은 MWCNT에 의해 신속히 제거되었고, 활성탄은 4시간에 각각 99.02%와 80.30%를 나타냈다. 또한, 구리이온은 초기 pH가 중성일 때 4시간내에 효율적으로 제거되었다. 흡착제 주입량을 증가함에 따라 pH가 증가하였고, 중금속 제거율도 증가하였다. 또한, 산화 전처리 공정은 MWCNT의 중금속 제거율을 증가시켰다.

In this work, uniform thickness and good adhesion of electrodeposited copper layer were achieved on AZ91 Mg alloy in alkaline noncyanide copper solution containing pyrophosphate ion by employing appropriate zincate pretreatment. Without zincate pretreatment, the electrodeposited copper layer on AZ91 Mg alloy was porous and showed poor adhesion which was explained by small number of nucleation sites of copper due to rapid dissolution of the magnesium substrate in the pyrophosphate solution. The zincate pretreatment was found as one of the most important steps that can form a conducting layer to cover AZ91 surface which decreased the dissolution rate of AZ91 Mg alloy about 40 times in the copper pyrophosphate solution. Electrodeposited copper layer on AZ91 Mg alloy after an appropriate zincate pretreatment showed good adhesion and uniform thickness with bright surface appearance, independent of the deposition time but the surface roughness of the electrodeposited copper layer increased with increasing Cu deposition time.

To evaluate the feasibility of electrodialysis for copper removal from industrial wastewater, the effect of operating parameters on the removal of copper was experimentally estimated. The limiting current density (LCD) linearly increased with the copper concentration and the flow rate. The time when the copper concentration of diluate reaches to 3 mg/L was linearly proportional to initial concentration of diluate, and the concentration of concentrate did not affect the removal rate. Increase in the flow rate gave a positive effect on the removal rate and became insignificant at flow rates greater than 2.4 L/min. The removal rate increased with the applied voltage. From the operation of the electrodialysis module used in this research, the flow rate of 2.4 L/min and the voltage corresponding to the 80~90% of LCD were found be the optimum operating condition for the copper removal from highly concentrated copper solutions.

구리(Ⅱ)를 이온교환한 제올라이트 Y에서 프로필렌의 흡착을 부피법, 온도상승에 따른 탈착법 및 전자스핀공명스펙트럼을 사용하여 검토하였다. 프로필렌의 흡착량은 구리이온의 교환도가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 흡착된 상태는 최소한 4가지로서 $6.4^{\circ}C$/min으로 온도를 상승시켰을 때 탈착온도가 $108^{\circ}C({\alpha})$ , $243^{\circ}C({\beta})$, $284^{\circ}C({\gamma})$ 및 $420^{\circ}C({\delta})$ 였다. 이중 ${\alpha}$피이크는 제올라이트 격자내에 흡착된 것이었고, ${\beta}$ 및 ${\gamma}$는 구리 이온과 구리 이온에 의해 생성될 수 있는 Br$\"{o}$nsted 산점에 의해 흡착된 것이라고 생각되며 ${\delta}$피이크는 Br$\"{o}$nsted 산점에 의한 프로필렌의 중합체의 분해물이라고 생각된다.

고준위폐기물의 심지층 처분을 위해 완충재인 벤토나이트가 반드시 필요하고, 지하 환경에서 이 물질의 장기적 특성 변화를 아는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 실험에서 폐기물 금속용기의 구리코팅 성분이 부식되면서 구리이온 농도가 증가한다고 가정하였을 때, 완충재인 벤토나이트 점토(몬모릴로나이트)의 층간 양이온들의 이온교환 및 용출 특성 등을 실험을 통해 살펴보았다. 용존 구리와 벤토나이트와의 반응실험에서 팽창성 점토의 Na가 선택적으로 먼저 Cu에 의해 치환되었고 Ca는 상대적으로 시간을 두고 이온교환되었다. 그리고 구리로 치환된 몬모릴로나이트는 X-선회절 분석결과 원시료에 비해 층간간격이 다소 줄어든 특징적인 비대칭 회절형태로 관찰되었다. 이러한 실험결과는 지하처분조건에서 고유 벤토나이트 성질의 점진적인 변화를 간접적으로 지시하는 것으로, 향후 다양한 추가실험을 통해 처분장 완충재의 화학적 광물학적 특성 변화를 연구할 계획이다.

The design of appropriate chemically modified electrodes should allow development of new voltammetric measurement schemes with enhanced selectivity and sensitivity. Microorganism like algae has high ability to trap toxic and heavy metal ions and different affinities for metal ions. A copper(II) ion-selective carbon paste electrode was constructed by incorporating alga Anabaena into a conventional carbon paste mixture, and then the film of 10% Nafion was coated to avoid the swelling of the electrode surface. Copper ion could be deposited at the 25% algamodified electrode for 15 min without the applied potential while stirring the solution by only immersing the electrode in a buffer (pH 4.0) cot1taining copper(II). Temperature was controlled at $35^{\circ}C$. After preconcentration was carried out the electrode was transferred to a 0.1 M potassium chloride solution and was reduced at -0.6 volt at $25^{\circ}C$. The differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry was employed. A well-defined oxidation peak could be obtained at -0.1 volt (vs SCE). In five deposition / measurement / regeneration cycles, the responses were reproducible and relative standard deviations were 3.3% for $8.0{\times}10^{-4}M$ copper(II). Calibration curve for copper was linear over the range from $2.0{\times}10^{-4}M$ to $1.0{\times}10^{-3}M$. The detection limit was $7.5{\times}10^{-5}M$. Studies of the effect of diverse ions showed that the coexisting metal ions had little or no effect for the determination of copper. But anions such as cyanide. oxalate and EDTA seriously interfered.

The polymeric membrane electrodes based on N,N'-bis-pyridin-2-ylmethylene-naphthalene-1,8-diamine as an ion carrier were prepared and tested for the copper-ion selective electrode. The membrane has a linear dynamic range between $10^{-6}$ and $10^{-2}$ M with a Nernstian slope of 29.6 mV per decade, and its detection limit was $10^{-5.62}$M. The potentiometric response is independent of the pH range of 3-5. The proposed electrode showed good selectivity and response for $Cu^{2+}$ over a wide variety of other metal ions in pH 4.0 buffer solutions.

A method is developed for the simultaneous determination of dissolved iron, copper, and zinc in rainwater. The method involves 25-fold evaporative concentration, ion chromatographic separation and subsequent spectrophotometric detection after post-column reaction with 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol. Analytical sensitivities, being defined by the slopes of calibration curves, are 0.93, 0.54, and 0.11 Abs/ $\mu$g/ml for iron, copper, zinc, respectively. Detection limits render around a few tenth of one ng/ml. Precisions evaluated by replicate analysis of real sample are better than 10% RSD. Due to the lack of certified standards for rainwater, the accuracy of the method could not be assessed directly. However, the results of this method agree well with those by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Analytical results for a suite of Seoul rainwaters are presented herein.
