초록

최근 주요 수질오염 물질로 대두되고 있는 질산성 질소의 제거를 목적으로 영가 철 나노입자에 의한 질산성 질소의 환원반응성을 평가하였다. 영가 철 나노입자의 제조방법에 따른 반응성 차이를 규명하기 위해 유기용매 상에 계면활성제를 첨가하여 나노미터 크기 수준의 수용액 분산상에서 입자를 합성하는 마이크로에멀젼 방법과, 수용액 상의 철 이온을 환원시켜 입자를 합성하는 두 가지 방법으로 영가 철 나노입자를 합성하였다. 또한 전기영동법으로 알루미늄에 침적시킨 영가 철 나노입자에 의한 질산성 질소 제거속도를 측정하고, 고정화되지 않은 나노 철 입자에 의한 반응속도와 비교하였다. 환원반응을 질산성 질소에 대한 1차 반응으로 가정하여 수용액 방법 및 마이크로에멀전 방법으로 제조된 영가 철 나노입자의 반응성을 평가한 결과, 반응속도상수는 각각 $1.40{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$ 와 $3.49{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$ 로서 비표면적에 비례하여 증가하였다. 알루미늄에 침적된 나노입자는 현탁된 나노입자의 반응과 비교하여 약 30% 감소된 반응속도를 보였으나, 과량의 질산성 질소가 존재하는 경우 나노 철의 단위 질량당 질산성 질소의 제거효율 면에서 더 우수한 특성을 보였다. 나노철 입자의 현탁액은 반응시간 30분 이내에 반응속도가 감소하는 경향을 보였으나, 알루미늄에 침적된 나노철 입자는 3시간 이상 활성을 유지하였으며, 최종 생성물로 기체 질소를 발생시키는 것을 확인하였다.

Reductive reactivity of zero-valent iron nanoparticles was investigated for removal of nitrate-nitrogen which is considered one of the major water pollutants. To elucidate the difference in reactivity between preparation methods, iron nanoparticles were synthesized respectively from microemulsion and aqueous solution of ferric ions. Iron nanoparticles prepared from microemulsion were deposited on aluminum by electrophoretic method, and their reaction kinetics was compared to that of the same nanoparticles suspended in aqueous batch reaction. With an approximation of pseudo-first-order reaction, rate constants for suspended nanoparticles prepared from microemulsion and dilute aqueous solution were $3.49{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$ and $1.40{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$, respectively. Iron nanoparticles supported on aluminum showed ca. 30% less reaction rate in comparison with the identical nanoparticles in suspended state. However, supported nanoparticles showed the superior effectiveness in terms of nitrate-nitrogen removal per zero-valent iron input especially when excess amounts of nitrates were present. Iron nanoparticles deposited on aluminum maintained reductive reactivity for more than 3 hours, and produced nitrogen gas as a final reduction product of nitrate-nitrogen.
