피복공법의 설계에서 피복재의 선정은 중요한 설계 변수로 파랑에너지로 발생하는 해저면 유속에도 피복재가 침식되지 않게 설계되어야 한다. 피복공법 관련된 기존 연구는 파랑에너지에 따른 깊이별 유속과 유효입경을 주로 시공경험과 수치해석에 의존하여 수행되었기 때문에 현장에서 시공경험이 미흡한 기술자가 사용하기에는 어려움이 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 파랑에너지에 따른 깊이별 유속과 피복재의 입경에 따른 침식을 판단할 수 있는 간편식을 제시하고 모형수조를 이용한 실내실험을 통해 신뢰성을 확인하고자 한다. 실내실험에서 측정된 깊이별 유속은 이론식과 상당히 일치하며, 유속추정 이론식을 침식 해석에 적용하여 유효입경을 예측하면 침식 유무 판단이 가능하다.

피복공법은 해저 퇴적오염물질을 차단하고 안정화시켜 처리하는 방안이다. 국내에서는 피복공법에 대한 연구가 부족하나, 오염물질이 방출되지 않기 위한 공학적 접근법이 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 피복설계 시 중요 인자인 피복재 침식을 확인하기 위해 조파장치를 이용한 수리모형실험을 실시하였다. 1:10의 실험축척을 적용하여 0.07~2 mm 크기의 모래를 피복 재료로 사용하였고, 모형 수조 내 강사한 후 파랑을 발생시켜 피복재의 형상변화를 관측하였다. 실험결과, 피복재의 표면은 파랑의 파형과 유사하게 변형이 발생하였으며, 파랑의 파고가 증가할수록 대체적으로 침식되는 피복재의 깊이가 증가하였다.

$CoSi_2$ was formed through annealing of atomic layer deposition Co thin films. Co ALD was carried out using bis(N,N'-diisopropylacetamidinato) cobalt ($Co(iPr-AMD)_2$) as a precursor and $NH_3$ as a reactant; this reaction produced a highly conformal Co film with low resistivity ($50\;{\mu}{\Omega}cm$). To prevent oxygen contamination, $ex-situ$ sputtered Ti and $in-situ$ ALD Ru were used as capping layers, and the silicide formation prepared by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) was used for comparison. Ru ALD was carried out with (Dimethylcyclopendienyl)(Ethylcyclopentadienyl) Ruthenium ((DMPD)(EtCp)Ru) and $O_2$ as a precursor and reactant, respectively; the resulting material has good conformality of as much as 90% in structure of high aspect ratio. X-ray diffraction showed that $CoSi_2$ was in a poly-crystalline state and formed at over $800^{\circ}C$ of annealing temperature for both cases. To investigate the as-deposited and annealed sample with each capping layer, high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) was employed with electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). After annealing, in the case of the Ti capping layer, $CoSi_2$ about 40 nm thick was formed while the $SiO_x$ interlayer, which is the native oxide, became thinner due to oxygen scavenging property of Ti. Although Si diffusion toward the outside occurred in the Ru capping layer case, and the Ru layer was not as good as the sputtered Ti layer, in terms of the lack of scavenging oxygen, the Ru layer prepared by the ALD process, with high conformality, acted as a capping layer, resulting in the prevention of oxidation and the formation of $CoSi_2$.

This study aims to assess the effectiveness of limestone, zeolite, and crushed concrete as capping material to block the release of heavy metals (As, Cu, Cr, Ni, and Pb) and reduce the sediment oxygen demand. The efficiency of limestone, zeolite, and crushed concrete was evaluated in a reactor in which a 1-cm thick layer of capping materials was placed on the sediments collected from Inchon north harbor. Dissolved oxygen concentration and heavy metal concentration in seawater above the uncapped sediments and capping material were monitored for 17 days. The sediment oxygen demand was in the following increasing order: crushed concrete ($288.37mg/m^2{\cdot}d$) < zeolite ($428.96mg/m^2{\cdot}d$) < limestone ($904.53mg/m^2{\cdot}d$) < uncapped ($981.34mg/m^2{\cdot}d$). The capping materials could reduce the sediment oxygen demand by blocking the release of biochemical matters consuming dissolved oxygen in seawater. It was also shown that zeolite and crushed concrete could effectively block the release of Cu, Ni, and Pb but those were not effective for the interruption of As and Cr release from marine contaminated sediments.

The effectiveness of in situ sediment capping as a technique for heavy metal risk mitigation in Hyeongsan River estuary, South Korea was studied. Sites in the estuary were found previously to show moderate to high levels of contamination of mercury, methylmercury and other heavy metals. A 400 m × 50 m section of the river was selected for a thin layer capping demonstration, where the total area was divided into 4 sections capped with different combinations of capping materials (zeolite, AC/zeolite, AC/sand, zeolite/sand). Pore water concentrations in the different sites were studied using diffusive gradient in thin film (DGT) probes. All capping amendments showed reduction in the pore water concentration of the different heavy metals with top 5 cm showing %reduction greater than 90% for some heavy metals. The relative maxima for the different metals were found to be translated to lower depths with addition of the caps. For two-layered cap with AC, order of placement should be considered since AC can easily be displaced due to its relatively low density. Investigation of methylmercury (MeHg) in the site showed that MeHg and %MeHg in pore water corresponds well with maxima for sulfide, Fe and Mn suggesting mercury methylation as probably coupled with sulfate, Fe and Mn reduction in sediments. Our results showed that thin-layer capping of active sorbents AC and zeolite, in combination with passive sand caps, are potential remediation strategy for sediments contaminated with heavy metals.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of capping materials on blocking pollutant elution from contaminated sediment to water body. Experiments were carried out under conditions in which the elution rate was intensified artificially using compost with high concentration of organic compound and nutrient salts instead of sediments. Activated carbon (AC), modified activated carbon (MAC), P. putida immobilized activated carbon (PBAC) and effective microorganisms immobilized activated carbon (EBAC) were used as capping materials. Zeolite (ZT) and two kinds of commercially available microorganisms immobilized zeolite products (ZC, ZN) were used for comparison experiment. The elution rate of organic compound, nitrogen and phosphorus were compared with that of control experiment. The experiments were conducted for 56 days. Concentrations of chemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus were measured to use the comparison of release rate of organic compound, nitrogen and phosphorus. From the experimental results, AC based materials showed better performance to block the elution of organic compound and nitrogen than ZT based materials. Although ZT based materials were more effective than AC and PBAC to block phosphorus, MAC and EBAC showed the best performance of phosphorus elution blocking among the all candidate materials. In conclusion, EBAC is considered as the most effective capping materials, because organic compound, nitrogen and phosphorus will be degraded continuously by EM in the long term.

본 연구에서는 반응성 피복소재인 제올라이트, 몬모릴로나이트, 제강슬래그의 피복두께에 따른 오염된 해양퇴적물 내 중금속 용출 차단 효율을 평가하였다. 실험결과, As의 용출차단에는 제올라이트, 몬모릴로나이트, 제강슬래그 모두 효과적이지 못하였다. 제올라이트는 Cr 용출 차단에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났지만, 몬모릴로나이트 5 cm 피복은 Cr 용출 차단에 매우 효과적이었다. As 및 Cr과는 대조적으로 Cd, Ni, 그리고 Pb은 미피복 퇴적물에서 조차 용출되지 않았다. Cu와 Zn은 피복 조건에 따른 영향이 가장 뚜렷한 중금속이었다. Cu의 용출은 몬모릴로나이트 피복 두께 1 cm 이상 그리고 제올라이트 피복 두께 3 cm 이상에서 효과적으로 차단되었다. 해양퇴적물에서 Zn의 용출은 모든 피복 물질에서 효과적이었다. 본 연구를 통해서 제올라이트, 몬모릴로나이트, 제강슬래그를 오염된 해양퇴적물에서 Cr, Cu, Zn의 용출 차단을 위한 효과적인 피복소재로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 오염퇴적물의 원위치 피복을 위한 소재의 적용성 평가를 위해 양이온교환용량이 다른 제올라이트의 중금속 흡착특성을 평가하였다. 실험을 위해 양이온교환용량이 높은 제올라이트(HCzeo, 163.74 cmol/kg), 중간 값의 양이온교환용량의 제올라이트(MCzeo, 127.20 cmol/kg), 양이온교환용량이 낮은 제올라이트(LCzeo, 70.62 cmol/kg)를 사용하였다. 비표면적을 측정한 결과 HCzeo ($59.43m^2/g$) > MCzeo ($52.10m^2/g$) > LCzeo ($10.12m^2/g$)순으로 높은 결과를 나타내었다. 광물학적 조성 분석을 위해 XRD 측정결과 LCzeo는 quartz와 albite로 구성되었고 MCzeo와 HCzeo의 구성광물은 quartz, albite와 더불어 clinoptilolite, heulandite, mordenite도 측정되었다. HCzeo, MCzeo, LCzeo를 이용한 Cd, Cu, Ni, Zn의 동역학적 흡착실험 결과 실험 6시간대에 흡착 평형에 도달하였다. 평형흡착실험 결과 Cd과 Zn의 흡착은 제올라이트의 양이온교환용량에 따라 증가하였지만 Cu와 Ni의 흡착은 양이온교환용량에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보이지 않았다. 이에 따라 오염퇴적물의 원위치 피복적용에 있어 Cd과 Zn으로 오염된 지역은 양이온교환용량이 높은 제올라이트의 피복적용이 효과적이지만 Cu와 Ni로 오염된 지역의 경우 가격이 저렴한 양이온교환용량이 낮은 제올라이트를 적용하여도 무방할 것으로 판단된다.
