Abstract

This study investigated the dechlorination mechanisms of TCE by Fe(II) associated with cement. Batch slurry experiments were peformed to investigate the behaviors of selected ions; Fe(II), Fe(III), $Ca^{2+}$, $SO_4^{2-}$ in cement/Fe(II) system. The kinetic experiments of TCE in cement/Fe(II) systems showed that injected Fe(II) was mostly sorbed on cement within 0.5 day and 90% of injected 200 mM sulfate was sorbed on cement within 0.5 day when $[TCE]_0$ = 0.25 mM and $[Fe(II)]_0$ = 200 mM. The kinetic experiments of TCE in hematite/CaO/Fe((II) systems were conducted for simulation of cement/Fe(II) system. Calcium oxide that is one of the major components in cement hydration reactions or has a reactivity in limited conditions. Hematite assumed the ferric iron oxide component of cement. The reactivities observed in hematite/CaO/Fe(II) system were comparable to those reported for cement/Fe(II) systems containing similar molar amounts of Fe(II). The behavior of Fe(II) and $SO_4^{2-}$ sorbed on solid phase at an early stage of reaction in hematite/CaO/Fe(II) system was similar to that of cement/Fe(II) system. Ferric ion was released from hematite at an early period of reaction at low pH. The experimental evidence of kinetic test using hematite/CaO/Fe(II) system implies that the reactive reductant is a mixed-valent Fe(II)-Fe(III) mineral, which may be similar to green rust. Fe(II) sorbed on cement can be converted to new mineral phase having a reactivity such as Fe(II)-Fe(III) (hydr)oxides in cement/Fe(II) systems.

본 연구는 시멘트/Fe(II) 시스템의 TCE 분해 기작에 관한 것이다. 회분식 슬러리 실험을 통해 시멘트/Fe(II) 시스템 내에서 선별된 이온들의 거동을 조사하였다. 시멘트/Fe(II) 시스템에서 주입된 Fe(II)은 반응시간 12시간 이내에 대부분 고체상으로 흡착되었으며 Fe(II)와 함께 주입된 sulfate 역시 12시간 이내에 90% 정도 고체상으로 이동하였다. 시멘트/Fe(II) 시스템의 Fe(II)-Fe(III) (수)산화물 형성을 모사한 적철석/CaO/Fe(II) 시스템의 TCE 분해능 실험결과 시멘트/Fe(II)에 상응하는 분해속도를 보였다. 칼슘산화물은 시멘트 수화물의 주요 구성성분의 하나로서 시멘트 내에 60% 정도 함유되어 있으며 제한된 조건에서 반응성을 갖는 것으로 알려져 있다. 적철석은 시멘트에 포함되어 있는 철산화물을 모의한 것으로 선별실험을 통해 결정하였다. 적철석/CaO/Fe(II) 시스템 내에서의 Fe(II)과 sulfate의 초기 거동은 시멘트/Fe(II) 시스템과 거의 유사하게 나타났다. 적철석/CaO/Fe(II) 시스템을 이용한 TCE 분해 kinetic 실험결과와 선별된 이온들인 Fe(II)과 $SO_4^{2-}$의 초기 거동으로 볼 때 시스템 내에서 green rust와 같은 Fe(II)-Fe(III) 혼합 광물이 형성되는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 시멘트/Fe(II) 시스템의 TCE 분해는 시멘트에 흡착된 Fe(II)이 반응성을 갖는 Fe(II)-Fe(III) (수)산화물로의 변환을 통한 기작을 갖는 것으로 판단된다.
