Mackinawite (FeS), as a ubiquitous reduced iron mineral, is known as a key controller of redox reactions in anaerobic subsurface environment. The reaction of FeS with redox-sensitive toxic element such as arsenic is substantially affected by pH conditions of the given environments. In this study, the interaction of As(V) with FeS was studied under strict anaerobic conditions with various pH conditions. The pH-dependent arsenic removal tests were conducted under wide ranges of pH conditions and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was applied to investigate the reaction mechanisms under pH 5, 7, and 9. The removal efficiency of FeS for As(V) showed the higher removal of As(V) under low pH conditions and its removal efficiency decreased with increasing pH, and no As(V) reduction was observed in 1 g/L FeS solution. However, XAS analysis indicated the reduction of As(V) to As(III) occurred during reaction between FeS and As(V). The reduced form of As(III) was particularly identified as an arsenic sulfide mineral (As₂S₃) in all pH conditions (pH 5, 7, and 9). As₂S₃ precipitation was more pronounced in pH 5 where the solubility of FeS is higher than in other pH conditions. The linear combination fitting results of XAS demonstrated that As(V) removal mechanism is concerted processes of As₂S₃ precipitation and surface complexation of both arsenic species.

본 연구는 바나듐 레독스 흐름전지에서 속도 결정단계인 양극 반응($[VO]^{2+}/[VO_2]^+$)을 개선하여 바나듐 반응의 속도를 증가시켜 흐름전지 성능을 향상시키고자 하는 목적으로 진행하엿다. 이를 위해, 다공성 촉매인 CMK3를 사용하여 일반적으로 사용되는 탄소 (Vulcan(XC-72)) 및 상용 Pt/C 촉매 (Johnson-Matthey사 Pt 20wt.%)와 그 성능을 비교하였다. 반응성은 순환주사전류법으로, 구조적 특성은 TEM과 BET&BJH을 이용하여 분석하였다. 또한, 완전지 실험을 통하여 전기화학적으로 나타난 결과가 어떻게 충방전에 적용되는지 확인하였다. 결과, CMK3는 Vulcan(XC-72)보다 6배 향상된 촉매 활성과 2배 이상 향상된 반응가역성이 나타남을 확인하였고, CMK3의 다공성 구조로 인해 Vulcan(XC-72) 보다 큰 표면적을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 아울러, CMK3는 백금 촉매가 없음에도, 상용 Pt/C 촉매의 85% 이상의 반응성과 가역성을 나타내었다. 완전지 실험에서 충방전 곡선은 CMK3를 적용한 흐름전지가 오히려 상용 Pt/C 촉매를 적용한 흐름전지보다 좋은 모습을 나타내었다.

The present trend of disposing treated sewage water by allowing it to infiltrate the soil brings a new dimension to environmental problems. It is therefore necessary to identify the chemicals likely to be present in treated sewage water. A soil column experiment was conducted to determine the behavior of chemical species in soil columns applied with secondary treated sewage water. To predict the behavior of chemical species, a multicomponent solute transport model that includes the biochemical redox process and cation exchange process was developed. The model computes changes in concentration over time caused by the processes of advection, dispersion, biochemical reactions and cation exchange reactions. The solute transport model was able to predict the behavior of the different chemical species. The model reproduced the sequential reduction reaction. To design the safe depth of plow layer where $NO_3^-$ is totally reduced, a numerical study of $NO_3^-$ leach was done and it was found out that the pore velocity and concentration of $CH_2O$ at the inject water was found to affect $NO_3^-$ reduction in the mobile pore water phase. It is revealed that the multicomponent solute transport model is useful to design the land treatment system for $NO_3^-$ removal from wastewater.

M-CeO2 (M : noble metal) catalysts have been widely studied as three-way catalysts and methanol synthesis catalysts. Ceria is thought to play a number of roles in these catalysts. The Ce(IV)/Ce(III) redox pair may store/release gases under oxidizing/reducing conditions, extending the operational window. Additionally, metal-ceria interactions lead to several effects, including the dispersion of the active components and promoting the activation of molecules such as CO or NO. Pd is a promising component to current TWC formulations and behaves particularly well when compared with Pt and Rh-based catalysts for low-temperature oxidation of Co and hydrocarbon. However the effect of Pd-ceria interactions on the physicochemical properties of Pd and the redox properties of Ce is not elucidated yet. In order to know exactly about the metal-ceria interactions, the model study are expecting to give a better environment, resulting in the wide use of the surface science tools. The substrate was Si(100) wafer, on which Ta metal was sputtered as a thickness of 100nm. The CeO2 thin film of 30nm was deposited by using the magnetron sputtering. Spin coating and magnetron sputtering methods were used to make the Pd thin film layer. The prepared sample was investigated by in-situ XPS, AES, SEM and AFM analysis.

Liquid Bi pool is a candidate electrode for an electrometallurgical process in the molten LiCl-KCl eutectic to treat the spent nuclear fuels from nuclear power plants. The electrochemical behavior of Bi³⁺ ions and the electrode reaction on liquid Bi pool were investigated with the cyclic voltammetry in an environment with or without BiCl₃ in the molten LiCl-KCl eutectic. Experimental results showed that two redox reactions of Bi³⁺ on inert W electrode and the shift of cathodic peak potentials of Li⁺ and Bi³⁺ on liquid Bi pool electrode in molten LiCl-KCl eutectic. It is confirmed that the redox reaction of lithium with respect to the liquid Bi pool electrode would occur in a wide range of potentials in molten LiCl-KCl eutectic. The obtained data will be used to design the electrometallurgical process for treating actinide and lanthanide from the spent nuclear fuels and to understand the electrochemical reactions of actinide and lanthanide at liquid Bi pool electrode in the molten LiCl-KCl eutectic.

The higher valence state of iron i.e., Fe(VI) was employed for the oxidation of one of an important toxic ion, cyanide in the aqueous medium. Cyanide was oxidized into cyanate, which is 1,000 times less toxic to cyanide and often accepted for its ultimate disposal. It was to be noted that Fe(VI) is a very powerful oxidizing agent and can oxidize most of the cyanide within few minutes i.e., ca 5 mins of contact. The data was obtained by the UV-Visible measurements for the Fe(VI) decomposition. The UV-Visible data was used to evaluate the overall rate constant for second order redox reaction between ferrate(VI) and cyanide. Also the pseudo first order rate constant was calculated as keeping the cyanide concentration in excess.

정화 효율과 운영상의 문제점을 파악하였다. 반응조 유입수 및 방류수에 대하여 현장에서 pH 및 Eh(산화환원전위)를 측정하였고 Cd, Pb, As, Zn, Cu, Fe, Al 및 Mn 등을 실험실에서 분석 하였다. 반응조 방류수에 대한 수질분석 결과 우분 및 석회석이 섞인 볏짚 반응조의 Cu, Zn, Fe, Cd, Al, Mn및 Pb의 정화효율(최대)은 98%, 100%, 99%, 100%, 97%, 61% 및 100%였고 이때 반응조의 수질환경은 pH 6 그리고 Eh 값이 -300 mV부근의 환원환경이었다. 그러나 시간이 경과함에 따라 Eh 값은 상승하였고 Al을 제외한 금속성분의 정화효율도 낮아져 반응조의 혐기환경유지는 금속성분의 정화에 매우 중요하였다. 반응조 시설을 운영한 결과 배관내의 산화물 Scale 및 기질물질의 부피 변화는 광산배수의 흐름을 방해하는 요소로 나타났다.

시화호 내 5개 정점에서 채취한 주상시료들을 지화학적으로 분석하여 시화방조제 건설이후 퇴적환경 및 중금속오염에 대해 연구하였다. 시화호내 퇴적환경은 유기물의 C/N비와 C/S비에 의해 무산소환경, 산화환경, 그리고 두 환경이 공존하는 지역으로 세분되었다. 산화환원환경을 지배하는 요인은 수심과 퇴적물의 공급차인것으로 사료된다. 주상시료에서 분석된 지화학적 원소중 Mn-U-Mo간의 상관관계는 각 정점간의 산화 환원환경의 지시자로 사용이 가능하다. 주상시료들의 Al과 Ti 함량은 퇴적물특성에 의해 구분되며, 5개 중금속(Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn 및 Pb)함량은 중금속에 의한 오염정도를 지시한다. 중금속의 상대적 함량은 방조제에 가까운 시화호 중심부분에서 보다 안산-반월공단에 가까운 지역에서 높게 축적되어 있다. 특히 주상시료의 표층퇴적물은 시화호 중앙부보다 시화-반월공단쪽이 약 2-8배 정도로 중금속축적이 높다.
