Abstract

Column tests were carried out to examine the effect of surfactant solution conditions on surfactant-enhanced remediation of contaminated soil. The selected conditions of the surfactant solution were concentration and pH. 1,2,4-trichlo-robenzene (TCB) was chosen as the model hydrophobic organic substances. Sodium diphenyl oxide disulfonate (DOSL) and octylphenoxypoly ethoxyethanol (OPEE) surfactants were selected for this study. Two Iowa soils, Fruitfield sand and Webster clay loam, were leached with surfactant solution. The test results revealed that an optimum condition was achieved for 4 %(v/v) of concentration and 10 of pH, respectively. The maximum recoveries of added TCB (93-98%) were obtained when optimal conditions of each surfactant solution parameter were simultaneously met. The optimum conditions of these parameters may be useful for surfactant-assisted remediation in soil contaminated by TCB.

오염된 토양의 복원에서 계면 활성제 용액의 조건에 따른 영향을 조사하기 위하여 주상실험이 실행되었다. 계면 활성제 용액의 조건에는 농도와 pH가 선택되었으며 모델 소수성 유기화합물은 삼염화벤젠, 그리고 DOSL라 OPEE 계면활성제가 본 연구에 사용 되었다. 또한 미국의 아이오와 토양이 본 연구에 이용 되었다. 실험 결과, 계면활성제 용액의 최적 조건은 농도 4%(v/v), pH 10 이며, 이러한 최적 조건이 적용될 때 93-98%의 삼염화벤젠이 오염된 토양으로부터 회수되었다. 규명된 최적 조건은 게면 활성제를 이용하여 삼염화벤젠으로 오염된 토양 복원에 유용하게 사용 될 수 있다.
