In this study, as a fundamental study for the remediation of the radionuclides-contaminated soil, the adsorption of cobalt, strontium, and cesium on natural soil and kaolin were experimently investigated and adsorption characteristics were evaluated by using several adsorption kinetic and isotherm models. The pseudo-first-order kinetic model (PFOM), pseudo-second-order kinetic model (PSOM), one-site mass transfer model (OSMTM), and two compartment first-order kinetic model (TCFOKM) were used to evaluate the kinetic data and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was the best with good correlation. The adsorption equilibria of cobalt, strontium, and cesium on natural soil were fitted successfully by Redlich-Peterson and Sips models. For kaolin, the adsorption equilibria of cobalt, strontium, and cesium were fitted well by Redlich-Peterson, Freundlich, and Sips models, respectively. The amount of adsorbed radionuclides on natural soil and kaolin was in the order of cesium > strontium > cobalt. It is considered that these results could be useful to predicting the adsorption behaviors of radionuclides such as cobalt, strontium, and cesium in soil environments.

코발트는 합금산업에서 발생되는 산업 폐기물과 산성광산배수로 자연에 유입될 수 있으며 또한 고준위 방사성 폐기물을 구성하는 방사성 핵종(⁶⁰Co)기도 하다. 스멕타이트는 이들을 흡착 격리하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있는 광물이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 특성이 잘 알려진 스멕타이트 중 The Clay Mineral Society (CMS)의 source clay인 Cheto-type montmorillonite (Cheto-MM)를 사용하여 가열에 의한 탈수 전후 광물의 층간수 존재 여부에 따른 흡착 자리가 코발트 흡착에 미치는 영향을 평가하고, 흡착 속도 및 등온흡착식 모델을 적용하여 Cheto-MM의 코발트에 대한 흡착 기작을 연구하였다. 본 연구 결과 탈수 및 이에 따른 층간 수축에 의해 흡착 특성이 달라지는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 코발트는 Cheto-MM의 층 모서리 자리에서의 흡착이 약 38%, 층간 내부에서의 흡착이 약 62%를 차지하는 것으로 확인되었고 Cheto-MM의 코발트 흡착은 층간 내부에 의한 영향이 큰 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 흡착에 있어 흡착 속도 모델을 적용한 결과, Cheto-MM의 코발트 흡착 속도는 pseudo-second-order 모델로 설명되며 농도에 따른 흡착은 Langmuir 등온흡착 모델로 가장 잘 설명되었다. 본 연구는 몬모릴로나이트의 흡착 자리에 따른 코발트의 흡착 양상에 대한 기본지식을 제공하고, 추후 고준위 방사성 폐기물 처분장에서의 스멕타이트의 흡착 거동을 예측하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This study proposes the use of a cobalt-based Prussian blue analogue (Co-PBA; potassium cobalt hexacyanoferrate), as an adsorbent for the cost-effective recovery of aqueous ammonium ions. The characterization of Co-PBA involved various techniques, including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis, and zeta potential. The prepared Co-PBA reached an adsorption equilibrium for ammonium ions within approximately 480 min, which involved both surface adsorption and subsequent diffusion into the interior. The isotherm experiment revealed a maximum adsorption capacity of 37.29 mg/g, with the Langmuir model indicating a predominance of chemical monolayer adsorption. Furthermore, the material consistently demonstrated adsorption efficiency across a range of pH conditions. Notably, adsorption was observed even when competing cations were present. Co-PBA emerges as a readily synthesized adsorbent, underscoring its efficacy in ammonium removal and selectivity toward ammonium.

In order to predict the dynamic behaviors of uranium and cobalt in a fixed bed at various influent pH values of liquid waste, the adsorption system was regarded as multi-component adsorption between each ionic species in a solution. Langmuir isotherm parameters of each species were extracted by incorporating equilibrium data with the solution chemistry of uranium and cobalt using IAST. Prediction results were in good agreement with the experimental data, except for a high concentration and pH. Although there was some limitations in predicting the cobalt adsorption, this method may be useful in analyzing a complex adsorption system where various kinds of ionic species exist in a solution.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) of cobalt gallate were synthesized and deposited on gold electrodes using self-assembly monolayers (SAMs) and hydrothermal processing. These MOF films exhibit strong adsorption capabilities for gaseous particulates, and the use of SAMs allows the synthesis and deposition processes to be completed in a single step. When cobalt gallate is mixed with SAMs, a coordination bond is formed between the cobalt ion and the carboxylate or hydroxyl groups of the SAMs, particularly under hydrothermal conditions. Additionally, the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) gas sensor accurately measures the number of particulates adsorbed on the MOF films in real-time. Thus, the QCM gas sensor is a valuable tool for quantitatively measuring gases, such as SO₂, NO₂, and CO₂. Furthermore, the QCM MOF film gas sensor was more effective for gas adsorption than the MOF particles alone and allowed the accurate modeling of gas adsorption. Moreover, the QCM MOF films accurately detect the adsorption-desorption mechanisms of SO₂ and NO₂, which exist as gaseous particulate matter, at specific gas concentrations.

Chitosan was modified by gamma radiation-induced grafting with maleic acid and then used for the removal of cobalt ions from aqueous solutions. Chitosan-g-maleic acid was characterized by Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The effect of the dose (1-5 kGy) and monomer concentration (0.3-1.3%, m/v) on the grafting ratio was examined. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms were also investigated. The results showed that the optimal dose for grafting was 2 kGy. When monomer concentration was within the range of 0.3-1.3% (m/v), the grafting ratio increased almost linearly. For the adsorption of cobalt ions by chitosan-g-maleic acid beads, the pseudo second-order kinetic model ($R^2=0.99$) and Temkin isotherm model ($R^2=0.96$) were able to fit the experimental data reasonably well. The equilibrium adsorption capacity of cobalt ions increased from 2.00 mg/g to 2.78 mg/g after chitosan modification.

본 연구는 졸-겔법을 이용하여 알칼리 조건인 pH 10에서 제조한 ZrO2의 하소온도에 따른 분말특성과 코발트 흡착량에 미치는 하소온도의 영향에 대하여 검토하였다. 졸-겔법을 이용하여 ZrO2 분말을 제조하고, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 140$0^{\circ}C$로 하소한 후, X-선 회절법, SEM, BET 방법, Fourier transform 적외선(FT-IR), 열중량 및 열시차분석법(TG-DTA)등을 이용하여 특성을 분석하였다. 알칼리조건인 pH 10에서 제조한 ZrO2는 하소온도가 $600^{\circ}C$일때 고온수에서 코발트 흡착량이 가장 우수하였으며, 이때 $600^{\circ}C$로 하소한 ZrO2의 비표면적은 24.03m2/g이였으며 25$0^{\circ}C$의 고온수에서 코발트 흡착량은 0.16m-eq/g이였다.

폐기물 용액의 pH 변화에 따른 고정층에서 우라늄 및 코발트 이온의 흡착거동을 다성분 흡착시스템으로 가정하여 이론적으로 예측하였다. 즉 pH 변화에 따라 존재 분율이 달라지는 각 이온 성분들이 상호 경쟁적으로 흡착한다는 가정 하에서, 평형실험에서 얻어진 결과와 우라늄 및 코발트 이온의 용액특성 (Solution chemistry)을 상호 결합하여 각 이온 성분들의 Langmuir 평형상수 값을 Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory를 도입하여 구하였으며, 이상의 결과를 이용하여 고정층 파과곡선을 이론적으로 계산한 결과 pH 변화에 따른 흡착거동을 비교적 잘 예측할 수 있었다 따라서 본 연구에서 시도한 방법은 이온 농도와 pH가 높은 경우를 제외하고 pH 변화에 따라 용액 내에 이온의 형태가 다양하게 존재하는 흡착 시스템을 이론적으로 예측하는 데 비교적 유용하게 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The improper management of radioactive waste or accidents caused by natural disasters can result in the release of radioactive materials into the surrounding environment, potentially leading to soil and groundwater contamination by radionuclides. In this study, adsorption-desorption behaviors of the radionuclides (cobalt and strontium) in natural soil, montmorillonite, Mn-PILC, Fe-PILC, and fishbone were investigated. Several models were used to predict adsorption isotherms of radionuclides on various absorbents. Adsorption isotherms of cobalt and strontium in several adsorbents were examined at pH 5.5. The amount of sorbed cobalt and strontium were represented fishbone > natural soil > Mn-PILC > Fe-PILC > montmorillonite and natural soil > Mn-PILC > fishbone > Fe-PILC > montmorillonite, respectively. Adsorption datas were fitted with several models such as Freundlich, Langmuir, Sips, Redlich-Peterson, Khan, and Generalized model. The results of curve fitting showed R²> 0.98 in all of adsorption models, except Sr²⁺ adsorption onto montmorillonite. For modified clays (Mn-PILC, Fe-PILC), it is suggested that, unlike natural soils and fish bones, there are not only single adsorption mechanisms but also adsorption mechanisms based on chemical adsorption and surface charge. In the case of fish bones, due to the relatively higher adsorption capacity than modified clays and its characteristic of significant desorption, it is expected more suitable for the removal of radionuclides in aquatic environments than for the immobilization of radionuclides in soil.
