We demonstrated that reductive degradation of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (Royal Demolition Explosive, RDX) can be enhanced by bio-reduced iron-bearing soil minerals (IBSMs) using Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 (CN32). The degradation kinetic rate constant of TNT by bio-reduced magnetite was the highest (0.0039 $h^{-1}$), followed by green rust (0.0022 $h^{-1}$), goethite (0.0017 $h^{-1}$), lepidocrocite (0.0016 $h^{-1}$), and hematite (0.0006 $h^{-1}$). The highest rate constant was obtained by bio-reduced lepidocrocite (0.1811 $h^{-1}$) during RDX degradation, followed by magnetite (0.1700 $h^{-1}$), green rust (0.0757 $h^{-1}$), hematite (0.0495 $h^{-1}$), and goethite (0.0394 $h^{-1}$). Significant increase of Fe(II) was observed during the reductive degradation of TNT and RDX by bio-reduced IBSMs. X-ray diffraction and electron microscope analyses were conducted for identification of degradation mechanism of TNT and RDX in this study. 4-amino-dinitrotoluene were detected as products during TNT degradation, while Hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine, Hexahydro-1,3-dinitroso-5-nitro-1,3,5triazine, and Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine were observed during RDX degradation.

외부 환경에 노출된 철제문화재는 환경오염요인에 직접적으로 영향을 받아 부식에 취약하다. 특히 철제유물에 있어서 활성부식을 일으키는 염화이온($Cl^-$)은 반드시 제거되어야 하지만 옥외 철제문화재는 유물의 특성상 탈염의 대상에서 제외되고 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 조선시대 철비를 대상으로 보존처리 및 탈염실험을 실시하였으며, 탈염은 흡습지를 이용한 탈염방법과 기존의 침적탈염방법을 함께 실시하여 그 효율성을 비교하였다. 탈염의 평가는 실체 금속 현미경, SEM-EDS, pH측정과 이온크로마토그래피(IC), XRD분석을 통하여 알아보았다. 실체 금속현미경으로 조사된 결과 부식은 층을 이루고 있으며 금속조직은 백주철로 확인된다. 또한 탈염 전 부식물에 대한 SEM-EDS분석결과 Fe와 O가 주로 검출되었으며 특히 Cl이 2.48wt%까지 측정되었다. 탈염용액에 대한 pH와 음이온을 분석한 결과에서는 흡습지를 이용한 탈염방법도 침적탈염방법과 유사한 탈염효과를 볼 수 있었다. 마지막으로 탈염 전 후 부식물에 대한 XRD분석 결과 탈염전에는 goethite, magnetite, lepidocrocite와 akaganeite가 검출되었으나 탈염 후에는 akaganeite가 검출되지 않아 흡습지를 이용한 탈염의 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 그러므로 본 연구를 통하여 흡습지를 이용한 탈염방법에서도 기존의 침적탈염방법과 유사한 탈염효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

경주 황남동의 통일신라시대 생활유적에서 출토된 철솥을 유리공방에서 사용된 도가니로 추정하고 있어, 이에 대한 과학적인 분석을 통해 철솥의 용도를 밝혀보기로 하였다. 우선 보존처리를 실시해 철솥의 원형을 찾아주고, 철솥 표면에 발생한 부식물 5점에 대해 SEM-EDS 분석 및 XRD 분석을 수행하였다. 철솥의 외형에 있어 도가니로 추정하는 데 가장 큰 역할을 했던 주구부분의 편이 보존처리 과정에서 발견되어 구연부는 완전한 상태로 복원되었다. 금속시편의 조직을 관찰한 결과 열처리없이 서서히 냉각시킨 주조철제로 밝혀졌다. 부식물의 성분원소는 Fe과 O를 주성분으로 한 P, Si, Ca, S 등으로서, 주요 구성 화화물은 quartz, vivianite, goethite, akaganeite, lepidocrocite, hematite 등이었다. 이와 같은 구성 성분들은 유리의 제조원료로서 이들이 철솥 외부표면의 부식물층에서 용융상태가 아닌 원료로 확인되었다는 것은 철솥이 출토된 유적이 유리제조와 관련된 공방지였다는 것을 알려주는 증거가 될 수는 있으나, 철솥이 유리 용융 도가니로 사용되었다는 증거가 될 수는 없다. 또한 철솥 출토 당시 우물지 안에 퇴적되어 있던 유기물 부식토와 사질점토 등을 고려해 보면 이들이 철솥의 부식물 형성인자로 작용한 것으로 볼 수도 있다. 따라서 철솥은 전형적인 주조철제로 도가니로 사용되지는 않은 것으로 결론지을 수 있다.

Feasibility of laboratory-synthesized zerovalent iron was investigated to remove arsenic from leachates of tailings taken from an Au-Ag abandoned mine. The tailings were seriously contaminated with arsenic, and its potential adverse effect on the ecosystems around the mine seems to be significantly high. Long-term column experiments were conducted for about 3.5 months to evaluate the effectiveness of the synthesized zerovalent iron for removal of arsenic. Over than 95% removal efficiency of As was observed in the zerovalent iron mediated tests. In addition, the XRD data suggest that the corrosion products of ZVI were identified magnetite, maghemite, goethite, and lepidocrocite, all of which support Fe(II) oxidation as an intermediate step in the zerovalent iron corrosion process. The results indicate that arsenic can be removed from the tailing-leachate by the mechanism of coprecipitation and/or adsorption onto those iron oxides formed from ZVI corrosion.

A $Fe(OH)_2$ suspension was prepared by mixing iron sulfate and a weak alkali ammonia solution. Following this, iron oxides were synthesized by passing pure oxygen through the suspension (oxidation). The effects of different reaction temperatures ($30^{\circ}C$, $50^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$) and equivalent ratios ($0.1{\sim}10.0$) on the formation of iron oxides were investigated. An equilibrium phase diagram was established by quantitative phase analysis of the iron oxides using the Rietveld method. The equilibrium phase diagram showed a large difference from the equilibrium phase diagram of Kiyama when the equivalent ratio was above 1, and single $Fe_3O_4$ phase only formed above an equivalent ratio 2 at all reaction temperatures. Kiyama synthesized iron oxide using iron sulfate and a strong alkali NaOH solution.

Pipes and components of the secondary system in the pressurized water reactor (PWR) are mainly comprised of manufactured carbon steel. Thus, the generated carbon steel corrosion products are transported into the steam generator and deposited, thereby deteriorating the integrity of the steam generator. Environmental condition in the secondary system of the PWRs differs across different locations. So, the corrosion rate and types of corrosion products depend on specific locations in the secondary system. In this study, the quantity and chemical compositions of corrosion products generated in various locations that vary in different temperatures and chemistry conditions were investigated. As a result of evaluating the PWR "Unit A" that is in current operation, the amount of corrosion products generated in the section of high temperature feedwater system was identified as the largest source in the secondary system. Major components of corrosion products were iron oxides such as magnetite, hematite, and lepidocrocite.

Steel is generally not corrosion resistant to water with formation of non protective rusts on its surface. Rusts are composed of iron oxides such as $Fe_3O_4$, $\alpha-$, $\beta-$, $\gamma-$and ${\delta}-FeOOH$. However, steel, particularly weathering steel containing small amounts of Cu, Ni and Cr etc., shows good corrosion resistance against rural, industrial or marine environment. Its corrosion rate is exceedingly small as compared with that of carbon steel. According to the exposure test results undertaken in outdoor environments, the atmospheric corrosion rate for weathering steel is only 1 mm for a century. Atmospheric corrosion for steels proceeds under alternate dry and wet conditions. Dry condition is encountered on steel surface on fine or cloudy days, and wet condition is on rainy or snowy days. The reason why weathering steel shows superior atmospheric corrosion resistance is due to formation of corrosion protective rusts on its surface under very thin water layer. The protective rusts are usually composed of two layer rusts; the upper layer is ${\gamma}-FeOOH$ termed as lepidocrocite, and inner layer is nano-particle ${\alpha}-FeOOH$ termed as goethite. This paper is aimed at elucidating the atmospheric corrosion mechanism for steel in comparison with corrosion in bulky water environment by use of empirical data.The summary is as follows: 1. No corrosion protective rusts are formed on steel in bulky water. 2. Atmospheric corrosion for steel is the corrosion under wetting and drying conditions. Corrosion and passivation occur alternately on steel surface. Steel, particularly weathering steel with small amounts of alloying elements such as Cu, Ni and Cr etc. enhances forming corrosion protective rusts by passivation.

Chlorophenols (CPs) are widely used industrial chemicals that have been identified as being toxic to both humans and the environment. Zero valent iron (ZVI) and iron based bimetallic systems have the potential to efficiently dechlorinate CPs. This paper reviews the research conducted in this area over the past decade, with emphasis on the processes and mechanisms for the removal of CPs, as well as the characterization and role of the iron oxides formed on the ZVI surface. The removal of dissolved CPs in iron-water systems occurs via dechlorination, sorption and co-precipitation. Although ZVI has been commonly used for the dechlorination of CPs, its long term reactivity is limited due to surface passivation over time. However, iron based bimetallic systems are an effective alternative for overcoming this limitation. Bimetallic systems prepared by physically mixing ZVI and the catalyst or through reductive deposition of a catalyst onto ZVI have been shown to display superior performance over unmodified ZVI. Nonetheless, the efficiency and rate of hydrodechlorination of CPs by bimetals depend on the type of metal combinations used, properties of the metals and characteristics of the target CP. The presence and formation of various iron oxides can affect the reactivities of ZVI and bimetals. Oxides, such as green rust and magnetite, facilitate the dechlorination of CPs by ZVI and bimetals, while oxide films, such as hematite, maghemite, lepidocrocite and goethite, passivate the iron surface and hinder the dechlorination reaction. Key environmental parameters, such as solution pH, presence of dissolved oxygen and dissolved co-contaminants, exert significant impacts on the rate and extent of CP dechlorination by ZVI and bimetals.
