  • The present study explores the applicability of response surface methodology (RSM) in conjunction with central composite design (CCD) matrix to statistically optimize ettringite crystallization process for the removal of sulphate from landfill leachate. A three factor-five coded level CCD with 20 runs, was performed to estimate the best fitted model. The RSM results indicated that the fitted quadratic regression model could be appropriate to predict sulfate removal efficiency. The pH was identified as the most dominant parameter affecting sulphate removal. 61.6% of maximum sulphate removal efficiency was obtained at pH of 11.06 for a 1.87 of $Ca/SO_4$ and 0.51 of $Al/SO_4$ molar ratios. The operating cost for ettringite crystallization at optimized conditions was calculated to be 0.52 $/$m^3$. The significance of independent variables and their interactions were tested by analysis of variance. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and SEM coupled with energy dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy results confirmed the formation of ettringite crystal and were used to describe its morphology features.

  • 에트린자이트(ettringite, $Ca_6[Al(OH)_6]_2(SO_4)_3{\cdot}26H_2O)$는 콘크리트 내에서 특이한 성질을 나타내는 황산염광물이다. 팽윤성 결정구조로 인해 경화된 콘크리트에 이차적으로 생성되면 팽창과 균열을 발생하여 콘크리트 내구성을 저하함으로써, 흔히 콘크리트의 암으로 불려진다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 상업적으로 스케일링 방지제 혹은 청관제로 활용되고 있는 일부 결정성장억제제를 선택 적용하여, 콘크리트에 유해한 황산염이차 광물인 에트린자이트의 결정성장억제 가능성을 시험하였다. 시험을 위한 에트린자이트 용액합성법을 개발하고, 세 가지 유형의 결정성장억제제들의 에트린자이트 결정성장에 대한 억제 효과를 검토하였다. 에트린자이트의 용액합성시험 결과, 수산화칼슘 포화용액에 대한 황산알루미늄 용액의 양적 균형이 이루어진 상태에서 순수한 에트린자이트가 생성되며, 용액 중 ${SO_4}^{2-}$ 이온에 대해 $Ca^{2+}$ 이온의 비율이 증가함에 따라 모노설페이트(monosulfate) 혹은 세미설페이트(semisulfate)가 생성된다. 용액합성법에 의한 에트린자이트의 결정 생성은 용액들의 반응 시작과 거의 동시에 일어나며 (induction time < 2min.), 반응 시작 1시간 정도 지나면 반응이 거의 완료되는 것으로 나타났다. 결정성장억제제들의 에트린자이트 결정성장억제 효과에 대한 실험결과, 폴리카르복시산염 (Polycarboxylate) 계의 PBCT (2-Phosphonobutane-1,2,4-Tricarboxylic Acid)와 무기인산염 (inorganic phosphate)계의 SHMP (Sodium Hexametaphosphate)는 실험조건에서 상대적으로 에트린자이트 결정성장억제의 효과는 적은 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 유기인산염 (organic phosphate)계의 HEDP (1-Hydoxyethylidene-1, 1-Diphosphonic Acid)는 0.1 vol.% 이상의 농도에서 효과적으로 에트린자이트 및 기타 황산염광물들의 결정성장을 억제하여 비정질의 겔(gel) 상의 물질을 생성하였다.

  • Two kinds of clinker liquid melts, one containing 2.0% of $K_2O$ and the other without $K_2O$, were prepared with the similar composition as those developed during the firing of portland cement clinker. One portion of melt was quenched and found to consist of glass together with traces of proto-$C_3A$, and the other portion was allowed to cool spontaneously to crystallize $C_3A$ and calciumferrite well. The product obtained by crystallization of the melt without $K_2O$showed cubic $C_3A$, while orthorhombic $C_3A$ was formed from the crystallized product containing $K_2O$. Studies on the hydration behavior of the samples made from the melts with 30% of gypsum were carried out for 24 hours by observation at regular intervals ettringite, monosulphate hydrates and gypsum which were formed or consumed during hydration. The samples without $K_2O$ in the melts were hydrated wth addition of proper amount of $K_2SO_4$ in the water for hydration. Hydration behavior of glassified $C_3A$ showed that it has low reactivity relative to crystallized $C_3A$, and also hydration reactivity of orthorhombic $C_3A$ was much lower than that of cubic $C_3A$ in 60 minutes. Potassium sulphate in the solution reduced the hydration reactivity of $C_3A$ . Evolution peaks of hydration heat examined by twin-type conduction micro-calorimeter showed that glassified $C_3A$ without $K_2O$ had secondary peak after 9 hours and $C_3A$ containing $K_2O$ after 12 hours. When crystallized $C_3A$ was hydrated, initial peaks of hydration heat were considerably high and there was no secondary peak for cubic $C_3A$ but the secondary peak of orthorhombic $C_3A$ appeared after 4 hours.
