초록

수계 내 질소의 증가는 부영양화나 녹조 및 적조현상을 유발하여 수계의 파괴 및 물의 자정능력을 저하시켜 전세계적으로 중요한 환경문제가 되었다. 수계 내 질소의 가장 일반적인 형태는 암모늄(NH4+)이온의 형태로 폐수로부터 유입되는 가장 많은 부분을 차지하고 있으며 부영양화의 주요 원인이 되고 있어 암모늄 제거에 있어 적절한 처리 및 방안이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 생장력이 좋은 바이오매스 중 하나인 수단그라스를 적용하여 바이오차를 생산하였으며, 200℃-400℃ 탄화 온도 조건 변화에 따른 과정에서 생성된 수단그라스 바이오차를 활용하여 암모늄 이온, 10~100ppm 농도 변화에 따른 흡착능력 분석하였으며, 이 결과를 통해 흡착제로써 활용 가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 탄화반응으로 인해 수단그라스의 화학구조가 분해되면서 바이오차의 탄소 및 고정 탄소함량이 증가하였다. 바이오차의 pH는 탄화 온도가 높을수록 pH와 전기전도도가 높아지면서 전기전도도로 인해 양이온에 대해 높은 흡착 가능성을 보였다. 흡착실험 결과를 바탕으로 NH4-N의 농도가 높아지면서 최대 54.5%, 최저 17.4%의 제거효율을 보였으며, 탄화 온도가 높을수록 바이오차의 기공 및 비표면적 증가로 인해 오염물질의 흡착이 용이해져 NH4-N의 제거효율이 높아졌다. FT-IR 분석 결과, 탄화반응의 고온으로 인해 전체적인 표면 작용기의 감소가 나타났다.

Increased nitrogen in the water system has become an important environmental problem around the world, as it causes eutrophication, algae bloom, and red tide, destroys the water system, and undermines water's self-purification. The most common form of nitrogen in the water system is ammonium ion (NH4+), and the largest portion of ammonium ions comes from wastewater. NH4+ is a major contributor to eutrophication, which calls for appropriate treatment and measures for ammonium removal. This study produced biochar by applying Sorghum × drummondii, a type of biomass with a great growth profile, analyzed the adsorption capacity of Sorghum × drummondii biochar produced from the changing carbonization temperature condition of 200 to 400℃ in the ammonium ion range of 10 to 100 ppm, and used the results to evaluate its potential as an adsorbent. Carbonization decomposed the chemical structure of Sorghum × drummondii and increased the content of carbon and fixed carbon in the biochar. The biochar's pH and electrical conductivity showed high adsorption potential for cations due to electrical conductivity as its pH and electrical conductivity increased along with higher carbonization temperature. Based on the results of an adsorption experiment, the biochar showed 54.5% and 17.4% in the maximum and minimum NH4-N removal efficiency as the concentration of NH4-N increased, and higher carbonization temperature facilitated the adsorption of pollutants due to the biochar's increased pores and specific surface area and subsequently improved NH4-N removal efficiency. FT-IR analysis showed that the overall surface functional groups decreased due to high temperature from carbonization.
