This study has been carried out to examine the feasibility of soil washing process for reducing arsenic contamination level of soil around $Dalch\hat{e}n$ Mine. The results of physicochemical tests of the target soil showed that pH was weak alkalic ($pH{\simeq}7.8$), soil texture was coarse sand, and organic contents (5.7%) and CEC (Cation exchange capacity; 21.5 meq/100 g) were similar with those of soils generally found in Korea. Contamination levels of arsenic were found to over 201 mg/kg which exceed the Korea standard levels of countermeasure and concern. To investigate chemical partitioning of heavy metals, sequential extraction procedures were adopted and it was found that arsenic was predominantly associated with the residual fraction among five fractional forms as much as over 85%, which is demonstrating that only less than 15% of all might be vulnerable to a selected washing agents. Among 6 kinds of washing agents applied on the screening for arsenic-contaminated soil, HCl and $H_3PO_4$ solution were selected as promising washing agents. In comparison with HCl and $H_3PO_4$ solutions for arsenic washing by kinetic experiment in the change of pH, soil-solution ratio, temperature, and washing solution concentration, $H_3PO_4$ solution was determined to best one of agents tested, which showed faster washing rate than HCl to accomplish regulatory goal.

In the soil washing process, the contaminants are usually removed by abrasion from soil particles using mechanical energy and water However, organic contaminants with low water solubility like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are remained on soil particles. Previous studies have shown that surfactant possessing amphipathic activity enhances the solubility of organic materials. For this reason solutions with surfactants have been used to improve removal of organic contaminants on soil washing process. But, in this manner, many problems were found like complete loss of surfactants and additional contamination by surfactant. The remediation method using microemulsion has been introduced to overcome these disadvantages. In this case, surfactants are recycled by phase separation of microemulsion after remediation. In microemulsion process, the surfactant will be recycled by phase separation of the microemulsion into a surfactant-rich aqueous phase and an oil phase after extraction. That is why remediation concept applying microemulsion as washing media has been Introduced. Suitable microemulsion have to be used in order to have the chance of refilling the soil after decontamination and to avoid any risk due to toxicity. The purpose of this research is to evaluate effect of microemulsion to remediation of contaminated soil. We performed test with various organic contaminants like Pyrene and BTEX, also compared efficiency of remediation in microemulsion process with soil washing

This paper presents the effect of acid treatment on the removal of metals and the brightness of pulp. The bleached kraft pulps, metal-absorbed pulps and recycled pulps((ONP, OCC, MOW, and SC) were treated with the acidic solutions. Among metals in the bleached kraft pulps, Cu, Ca and Mg were removed easily by the acid washing, whereas Fe, Al and Si were not removed. The acid washing also removed distinctly metals from the metal-absorbed pulps. The metals absorbed in pulps reduced the brightness (%, ISO). Especially, Fe was the most detrimental metal. However, the brightness which was decreased by metals was restored to the status quo by the acid washing. The level of metals in recycled pulps was gradually reduced after the first flotation and acid treatment. Hence, the degree of metal removal by the acid washing was mainly dependent upon the kinds of waste pulps and metal ions.

Changes in laundering habits and the efficacy claims made for oxygen bleach added to detergents necessitate a deeper investigation into the testing of the washing efficacy of detergents and washing process. The effect of the addition of a sodium percarbonate and bleach activator TAED to an enzyme containing detergent on the soil removal and antimicrobial properties were investigated with the measuring of residual H$_2$O$_2$. The addition of sodium percarbonates to enzyme containing detergent lowered the soil removal of EMPA 116 cloth. But sodium percarbonates had greater effects on that of colored stained cloths such as EMPA 115 and artificially soiled with wine and red pepper while they were presoaked at 20$^{\circ}C$ or higher for So minutes or longer. Most of hydrogen peroxide was remained after washing. Over 99.9% of Staphylococcus aureus on the cotton cloth was removed in every washing solutions, but the cloth washed with enzyme containing detergent or detergent with oxygen bleach didn't show the antimicrobial property.

Soil washing with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is highly effective in the remediation of soils contaminated with heavy metals. The EDTA recycling process is a requisite for reducing the operating cost. The applicability of Na₂S addition on the precipitation of heavy metals from the spent soil washing solution and thereby recycling of EDTA was investigated. Addition of Na₂S into the single metal-EDTA and the mixed metal-EDTA solutions ([Na₂S]/[metal-EDTA] ratio = 30, reaction time = 30 min and pH = 7~9) was highly effective in the separation of Cu and Pb from metal-EDTA complexes, but not for Ni. The Zn removal efficiency varied with pH and slightly increased upto 40% as the reaction time increased from 0 to 240 min which was longer than those for Cu and Pb. Ca(OH)₂ was subsequently added to induce further precipitation of Zn and Ni and to reduce the Na₂S dose. At the [Na₂S]/[metal-EDTA] ratio of 10, the removal efficiencies of all heavy metals excluding Ni were above 98% with the dose of Ca(OH)₂ at 0.002, 0.006 and 0.008 g into 100 mL of Cu-, Pb- and Zn-EDTA solutions, respectively. However, Ca(OH)₂ addition was not effective for Ni-EDTA solution. A further research is needed to improve metal removal efficiency and subsequent EDTA recycling for the real application in field-contaminated soils.

본 연구에서는 폐광산지역에서 발생되는 폐기물인 광미를 대상으로 토양세척공정을 이용하여 다양한 세척용매와 농도, 그리고 추출시간에 따른 중금속의 추출특성을 파악하였다. 세척용매로는 물, HCl(0.1, 0.3, 1.0 N), EDTA(0.01, 0.05, 0.1 M), SDS(0.1, 0.5, 1.0%)를 이용하였다. 그 결과, 물과 SDS 용매에서 Zn과 Cd이 Pb과 Cu보다 높은 추출효율을 보였지만, 전체적으로는 1%이하로 중금속의 추출에 효과적이지 못하였다. 그러나, SDS에서 Pb과 Cu의 추출효율은 추출시간이 길어질수록 증가하였다. HCl과 EDTA를 이용한 중금속의 추출은 물과 SDS보다 빠른 추출경향을 보였고, 대부분의 중금속이 6시간 이내에 추출되었으며 용매의 농도와 무관하였다. 6시간 이후에는 느린 추출경향을 보였지만 세척용매의 농도에 따라 좌우되었다. 또한, 용매의 농도가 증가할수록 추출경향은 빨라졌고, 추출 효율도 증가하였다. 추출효율은 1.0 N HCl에서 Cd>Pb>Zn>Cu로, 0.1M EDTA에서 Pb>Cd>Zn>Cu 순으로 높았다. 농도증가에 따른 추출효과는 HCl에서 Pb이, EDTA에서 Pb과 Cd이 가장 컸으며, 중금속제거를 위한 6시간이상의 추출은 비효과적이었다.

비이온계 계면활성제에 여러 종류의 수산화물을 혼합하여 오염토양에 대한 세척영향을 관찰 .분석한 후, 적합한 계면활성제 및 첨가제의 종류와 최적 농도를 찾고자 하였다. 또한 중요한 운전변수인 온도에 따른 세척효율을 분석하여 혼합 계면활성제의 HLB 값과 운점의 상관관계를 규명하였다. 실험결과, 염기의 강도가 증가할수록 세척효율은 NaOH＞KOH＞ Mg(OH)$_2$>Al(OH)$_3$순서로 증가하였다. Al(OH)$_3$는 계면활성제를 응집시켜 세척효율은 매우 낮았다. 단독의 비이온계 계면활성제 POE$_{5}$에 NaOH를 첨가하는 경우 적정 농도인 0.01 M과 0.1 M에서 각각 62.5%와 67.3%로 급격하게 세척효율이 향상하다가 1 M의 농도에서 약 4.2%로 급격히 감소하였다. 혼합 계면활성제에 NaOH를 0.01 M 첨가했을 때, 첨가하지 않을 때보다 세척효율이 증가하였다. NaOH가 첨가되지 않을 때의 혼합 계면활성제에서는 POE$_{5}$/POE$_{14}$의 농도비가 1.8%/1.2%일 때 세척효율이 가장 높았지만, 0.01 M의 NaOH을 첨가했을 때는 1.2%/1.8%에서 85.4%의 높은 세척효율을 나타내었다. 혼합 계면 활성제［POE$_{5}$/POE$_{14}$]용액에 대해 NaOH 첨가량에 따른 용액의 표면장력과 CMC 값의 변화를 조사한 결과, NaOH를 첨가하는 경우 혼합 계면활성제의 표면장력을 감소시켰다. 한편, 비이온계 계면활성제의 HLB값이 증가할수록 운점은 증가하였고, 운점 이상의 온도에서 세척효율이 급격히 감소함을 알 수 있었다.수 있었다.

This study was carried out to compare the effect of caustic soda with the effect of caustic potash on cotton fabric. Instead of caustic potash, sodium carbonate similar in chemical composition to caustic potash was used. The damage of cotton cellulose by repeated washing in various alkaline solutions at 8$0^{\circ}C$, 60 rpm was examined. The damage of cotton cellulose by the variation of copper number, carboxyl content, degree of polymerization and retained tensile strength was estimated. The results obtained at this study are as follows; 1. The damage of cotton by caustic soda was severer than caustic potash. The retained tensile strength at 50 washing cycle in caustic soda was 59% and in sodium carbonate was 80%. 2. By adding soap to caustic soda, the damage of cotton fabric decreased because contact area between fabric and air diminished by foam. 3. Detergency of EMPA 101 in caustic soda was lower than sodium carbonate. Consequently, using caustic soda that damage fabric severely and have lower detergency for caustic potash is unreasonable.

The purpose of this study is to find troubles in producing and using the reclaimed soaps to get the solutions of their troubles. Five kinds of reclaimed soaps were taken from religious or civic organizations and nine kinds of soaps were made by adding sodium hydroxide of different concentrations to the used vegetable oil in our laboratory. Washing efficiency, pH test, BOD, and skin irritability of the reclaimed of manufactured soaps were examined. The washing efficiency of the manufactured soaps were ±80%. The percent of free-alkali tended to increase as the amount of NaOH increased. The skinirritability was proportional to the amount of NaOH added. To make the reclaimed soap, the best percent of NaHO to used oil is 17% or 18% and this ratio(17%∼18%) should be kept. Manufactured soaps by this ratio have good apperance condition and washing efficiency. And also they have low skin irritability and free-alkali. This study has the limitations that the skin irritability test can have individual and the collected soaps couldn't represent all kinds of recaimed soap.

In order to study the affect of surfactants on the soil removal, the dispersion and polar force components of surface tension for surfactant solutions (such as LAS, AS, AOS, AES, AE) were calculated using extended Fowkes equation. The contact angles on paraffin and surface tension of surfactant solutions were measured. Cmcs of LAS, AS, AES and AE were below the concentration of 0.05%, but the cmc of AOS was between 0.05% and 0.1%. The surface tension of AE was lowest but the dispersion force component was greastest. Total surface tension of every mixed anionic surfactant was lower than that of single surfactants, and the dispersion force components were almost decreased. The addition of sodium carbonate to the sufactant solutions decreased the surface tension, and the surface tensions of surfactant solutions were lowered after washing.
