Abstract

The final disposal method for asbestos building materials is to be landfilled at a designated waste landfill in accordance with the Waste Management Act. However, it is difficult to secure a domestic designated waste landfill site to landfill the entire amount of asbestos waste, which is expected to emit more than 400,000 ton/year by 2044. In this study, a detoxification treatment was performed on a ceiling tex with a density of 1.0 to 1.2g/cm3 containing 3 to 7% of chrysotile, and it was used as a reinforcing fiber for extruded panels. It was confirmed that asbestos components were detoxified through the reaction process using 30% oxalic acid and carbon dioxide, and it was recognized that these detoxifying properties were maintained even after extrusion molding. However, it was found that milling to a fiber size of less than 1mm for complete detoxification of asbestos resulted in a decrease in reinforcing performance. Therefore, in the case of using detoxified asbestos fibers in the extrusion molding process, it is considered desirable to add fibers with a length of 5mm or more to improve the reinforcing performance.

석면 건축자재 최종 처리 방법은 폐기물 관리법에 의하여 지정폐기물 매립장에 매립 처리 하여야 한다. 그러나 2044년까지 연간 40만 톤 이상 배출이 예상되는 석면 폐기물을 전량 매립 처리하기에는 국내 지정폐기물 매립장 확보가 어려운 상황이다. 본 연구는 백석면을 3~7% 함유한 밀도 1.0~1.2g/cm3의 천장재를 대상으로 무해화 처리를 실시하고 이를 압출성형 패널의 보강섬유로 활용한 것이다. 옥살산 30%와 이산화탄소를 이용한 반응 공정을 통하여 무해화 처리가 된 것을 확인하였으며, 압출성형 후에도 이러한 무해화 성질은 유지하는 것으로 확인되었다. 다만, 석면 섬유의 완전한 무해화 처리를 위하여 초기 1mm 미만으로 분쇄를 실시함에 따라 섬유에 따른 보강성능 역할이 높지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 압출성형 공정에서 무해화 석면 섬유를 활용할 경우에는 보강성능 보완이 가능한 5mm 길이 이상의 섬유를 보완하여 사용하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.
