Lab-scale biofilter was studied for the simultaneous removal of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in gas mixtures. Compost and polyurethane foam were used as packing materials (50 : 50) and activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant was innoculated initially. When tested under varying inlet concentrations and empty bed residence time(EBRT), up to 80 ppmv of ammonia and 40 ppmv of hydrogen sulfide could be removed completely at an EBRT of 30 sec. The pH was found to be the key factor governing the biofilter performance.

석탄유도가스에 포함된 황화수소를 제거시킬 흡착제를 개발하기 위하여 알칼리 토금속, 천이원소 및 아연의 이온반경보다 이온반경이 작은 금속산화물을 산화아연에 첨가시켜 다공성 흡착제를 제조하였다. 600$\circ$C에서 이들 첨가시료를 2.09vol.% 황화수소와 질소가스 혼합기체로 반응시켜 초기속도를 측정하고, 같은 온도에서 사용된 흡착제를 공기로 재생시켰다. 사용된 금속산화물 첨가 흡착제중에서 CaO, TiO$_2$, $Fe_2O_3$, CuO, $Ga_2O_3$ 및 Si$_2$O가 ZnO 흡착제의 초기속도를 증가시켜 첨가제로 사용할 수 있음을 보였다.

대하 양식장과 같이 물의 유동이 작고, 폐쇄성이 강한 지역, 더구나 유기물 혹은 질소, 인등의 영양염류 농도가 높은 부영양화 지역에서는 저질 중의 유기물 분해에 따른 산소소비는 저질환경을 산화상태로부터 환원상태로 이동시켜 황산염 환원에 의한 황화수소가 발생한다. 따라서 황화수소의 발생은 용존산소의 저하를 나타냄과 동시에 그 자체가 강한 독성을 가지고 있으며, 질소화합물 중의 암모니아 및 아질산과 같은 형태도 양식장의 생산억제 요인으로 작용한다(Gavis and Grant, 1986; Thompson et al., 1989). 그러나, 지금까지의 이들 오염물질, 특히 황화수소에 대한 연구는 미비하며, 대부분의 연구도 성체를 중심으로 이루어지고 있다.

폐광된 금속광산의 폐광석 적치장, 선광시설, 광미장 등에는 폐광석과 황화광물의 분말이 그대로 방치되어 있어, 풍화작용에 기인된 황화광물의 산화과정에서 용해된 유해 중금속의 이동과 확산이 심각한 중금속 오염문제를 발생시키고 있다 그러므로, 황화광물의 산화작용에 의해 형성된 2차 광물에 대한 광물학적 연구는 유해 중금속의 물리$\cdot$화학적인 거동, 오염물질의 확산 등을 규제하고 있는 지구화학적 메카니즘 규명에 매우 중요한 자료가 되며, 폐광석 및 광미에 대한 복원 결정을 내리는데 있어 결정적인 판단 자료가 될 수 있다 (강민주, 2003).

Hydrogen sulfide and ammonia are one of the common malodorous compounds that can be found in emissions from many sewages treatment plants and industrial plants. Therefore, removing these harmful gases from emissions is of significance in both life and industry because they can cause health problems to human and detrimental effects on the catalysts. In this work, pyrolytic carbon blacks from waste tires were used to develop adsorbent with good adsorption capacity for removal of hydrogen and ammonia. Pellet-type adsorbents were prepared by a mixture of carbon black, metal oxide and sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid, and their adsorption capacities were estimated by using breakthrough curve of a continuous fixed bed adsorption column at ambient condition. The adsorbent manufactured with a mixture of carbon black, iron oxide(III) and sodium hydroxide showed the maximum working capacity of hydrogen sulfide. For ammonia, maximum working capacity was obtained by the adsorbent manufactured with a mixture of carbon black, copper oxide(II) and hydrochloric acid.

We isolated 50 strains from sludge of wastewater treatment aeration tank using selective medium for Thio-bacillus sp. by membrane filtration method. They were identified as Thiobacillus neapolitanus (7), T. tepidarius (4), T. dientrificans (5), T. versutus (23), T. intermedius (2) and T. perometabolis (9). We selected Thiobacillus versutus strain KT51, which had the highest removal efficiency (100％) of hydrogen sulfide and the highest removal efficiency (85％) of dimethyl sulfide for 30 min in screen test. Also Thiobacillus versutus strain KT81 had the highest removal efficiency (26％) of dimethyl disulfide for 30 min in screen test. In applification of lab-scale reactor (closed-biological treatment) using Thiobacillus versutus strain KT51, results were 99.8％ (＜0.02 ppm) removal efficiency of hydrogen sulfide for 15 min.

Artificial aggregates made by coal fly ash that is classified as an industrial by-product was tested to oxidize hydrogen sulfide under various testing conditions. For the determination of optimum condition for converting coal fly ash to aggregates, specimens were prepared by varying ratio of fly ash, cement, water content, and foaming agent. These specimens were tested to determine specific gravity, water absorption, and compressive strength. Specimens, which were used for the removal of hydrogen sulfide, were selected based on the measured specific gravity, water absorption, and compressive strength. Tests for hydrogen sulfide removal were performed via batch and column tests. Under the testing conditions used in this study, removal rates of hydrogen sulfide were linearly proportional to amounts of coal fly ash, and further increased when water was added.

The optimum conditions for the removal of hydrogen sulfide by Fe-EDTA complex in the bubble column reactor were investigated. As the concentrations of the complex increased, the conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide increased, while Fe concentration and pH were stably decreased and the amount of elemental sulfur produced was also increased. Hydrogen sulfide was removed efficiently when the concentration of Fe-EDTA complex was maintained more than 0.05M. pH acts as an important factor for the stability of complex in the oxidation of hydrogen sulfide and optimum pH range was 8.5~9.5. As the molar ratio of EDTA : Fe was increased, the conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide became stable. However, the rate was decreased due to the precipitation of FeS when the concentration of EDTA was decreased. As the concentration of EDTA increased, the conversion rate of hydrogen sulfide increased due to the high stability of Fe-EDTA complex.

Sulfur emission control in coal gasification plants implies the removal of $H_2S$ from the fuel gas in the gas clean-up system. In this study, the effects of particle size of sorbents, temperature of sulfidation and sorbent characteristics on the $H_2S$ removal efficiency of manganese ore were investigated. Experimental results showed that the removal efficiency of $H_2S$ was optimum when the temperature was about $700^{\circ}C$. And that the smaller particle size, the higher the $H_2S$ removal efficiency, but that was not effective very much. As the temperature increases, the reactivity of sorbents has lowered because agglomeration of sorbents increased the intraparticle transport resistance. This phenomenon was confirmed by SEM photographs. The equilibrium ratio ($P_{H_2O}/P_{H_2S}$) obtained by experiments is represented as a ${\log}(P_{H_2O}/P_{H_2S})=5653/T-3.7909$. It was showed that the natural manganese ore could be used as a sorbent because its capacity for $H_2S$ removal is equivalent to the eariler developed sorbents.

Two organic materials, peat and rock wool were used for removal of $H_2S$ by a biofilter inoculated with night soil sludge. By gradually increasing the inlet load of $H_2S$, the complete removal capacity, which was defined as the inlet load of $H_2S$ that was complete removed, and the maximum removal capacity of $H_2S$, which was the value when the removal capacity leveled off for organic materials, were estimated. Both values for Rock wool are larger than peat, based on a unit dry weight of material. By using kinetic analysis, the maximum removal rate of $H_2S$, $V_m$, and the saturation constant, $K_s$, were determined for all packing materials and the values of $V_m$ for rock wool was found to be larger. By using the kinetic parameters, the removal rates for $H_2S$ were compared both packing materials, and rock wool showed better performance for the removal of $H_2S$ in the inlet concentration range of 0~200ppm.
