Abstract

The coal bottom ash and reject ash discharged from a coal-fired power plant are difficult to recycle so most of them are mainly landfill-disposed. In this study, the artificial aggregate were produced using reject ash, bottom ash and dredged soil emitted from the coal-fired power plant in Korea and the effect of experimental factors on the bloating behavior and the properties of the aggregates were analyzed. In particular, a lot of unburned carbon in the reject ash was removed by calcination and the activated carbon was added to batch powders then the dependence of those process upon bloating properties of artificial aggregate were investigated. For this purpose, the specific gravity and water absorption values of artificial aggregates were investigated in conjunction with microstructural observations. This study could contribute to increase the recycling rate of the reject ash.

화력발전소에서 배출되는 석탄 바닥재 및 잔사회는 재활용이 힘든 폐자원이어서 주로 매립 처분되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 화력발전소에서 배출된 석탄 잔사회, 바닥재 그리고 준설토를 혼합하여 인공골재를 제조하고, 실험인자가 골재의 발포거동 및 물성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 특히 미연탄소가 많이 포함되어 있는 잔사회에 대하여 하소 처리를 한 뒤, 인위적으로 활성탄소를 첨가함으로서 하소유무 및 활성탄소 첨가량이 인공골재의 발포특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 이를 위해 인공골재의 부피비중 및 흡수율 값을 시편의 미세구조 관찰 결과와 연계하여 고찰함으로서, 잔사회의 재활용율 제고에 일조하고자 하였다.
