Abstract

Carbon nanomaterials such as fullerene, carbon nanotube and graphene are representative nanomaterials and widely used in various fields. Carbon nanomaterials can be exposed to environments during their production, usage and disposal, spreading to different systems and posing a great threat to various ecological receptors. Researches are conducted in order to determine the possibility of groundwater exposure to carbon nanomaterials due to their release and passage through soils. If soils can play a significant role in limiting the transport of carbon nanomaterials, the possibility of groundwater exposure to carbon nanomaterials can be reduced greatly. This review paper presented the research works performed for the mobility of carbon nanomaterials in soil media. Also, the paper provided the factors affecting the transport of carbon nanomaterials in soil media along with the DLVO theory/colloid filtration theory/transport model, which are used to describe the transport of carbon nanomaterials in soil media. Recently, production of carbon nanomaterials and their commercial and environmental applications increase rapidly in Korea. Therefore, researches regarding the fate and transport of domestic carbon nanomaterials in soil environments should be performed in various environmental conditions.

탄소나노물질은 대표적인 나노물질로써, 풀러렌, 탄소나노튜브, 그래핀 등을 포함한다. 탄소나노물질은 다양한 분야에서 널리 이용되고 있는데, 생산, 사용, 처리 등의 단계에서 환경에 노출될 수 있고, 일단 노출이 되면 다양한 계로 확산되어 여러 생태학적 수용체에 큰 위협이 될 수 있다. 탄소나노물질이 토양환경에 노출되었을 때, 물의 흐름을 따라 토양을 통과하여 지하수에 노출될 가능성 여부를 판단하기 위하여 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 토양이 탄소나노물질의 이동을 제한하는 역할을 잘하는 것으로 판단될 경우에는, 탄소나노물질의 지하수 노출 가능성이 상당히 낮아질 것이다. 본 논문에서는 최근까지 토양 매질체에서 탄소나노물질의 이동과 관련하여 수행된 연구들을 정리하였다. 또한, 이러한 연구들을 통해 알려진 탄소나노물질의 이동에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 제시하였다. 그리고, 탄소나노물질의 이동을 모사하는데 이용되는 DLVO이론, 콜로이드 여과이론 그리고 이동모델을 제시하였다. 최근, 국내에서도 탄소나노물질의 생산과 상업적, 환경적 이용이 급속히 증가하고 있다. 따라서, 국내에서 생산되고 유통되는 탄소나노물질의 토양환경에서 이동에 관한 연구들이 향후에도 다양한 토양 환경조건에서 수행되어야 할 것으로 보인다.
