천연 zeolite를 이용하여 악취성분의 하나인 $NH^3$ gas를 제거하기 위해서 $NH_3$ gas를 zeolite column에 통과시켜 그 제거율을 조사하였다. Zeolite column에서 $NH_3$ gas의 유속이 느릴수록 column 통과농도가 낮게 나타났다. 천연 zeolite에 흡수된 수분함량은 전체적으로 $NH_3$ gas의 흡착에 영향을 주며, 동일량의 천연 zeolite를 column에 나누어 설치하는 방법에 따라서는 통과농도에 거의 영향이 없으나, 첨가량이 많으면 통과농도가 감소하였다. 천연 zeolite에 포화된 치환성양이온은 $NH_3$ gas의 제거율에 영향을 주며, 그 결과는 K->Natural->Na->Ca-zeolite순으로 나타났다. 따라서, $NH_3$ gas의 제거율을 높이기 위해서는 column통과유속, 천연 zeolite의 함수량 및 포화 양이온도 고려되어야 한다.

결정성 aluminosilicate 광물의 일종인 천연 zeolite는 광물학적 특성과 화학적 표면활성으로 인하여 다방면의 공업화학적 이용가치가 매우 높고 광물중 특히 가장 높은 양이온교환능을 가지고 있어 기체분자에 대한 선택적 흡착력이 큰 molecular sieve로써 흡착분리제로는 물론, 건조제, 흡습제, 이온교환체, 촉매, 증량제 그리고 폐수처리제, 경수의 연화제등으로 이용도가 날로 증가하고 있다. 국내산 천연 zeolite를 IN HCL용액과 NaCl용액으로 화학처리하여 다공성을 증가시켜 column충전제로 사용한 결과, 혼합기체 Ar, $N_2$ CO및 $CH_4$의 분리특성에 관해서 HCL용액으로 처리한 mordenite 시료는 활성화온도가 $300^{\circ}C$일 경우, CO와 $CH_4$의 분리는 곤란하나 $350^{\circ}C$에서는 분리가 용이하였고 NaCl용액으로 처리한 시료는 미처리한 것과 거의 유사하였다. Ar과 $N_2$와의 분리에는 산 또는 알칼리로 화학처리한 시료에도 별로 효과가 없었으나 HCL용액과 NaCl용액을 연속적으로 처리한 천연 zeolite는 합성 zeolite의 특성에 견줄만한 정도로 기체분리효과와 HETP값을 보여주었다. 한편 시료의 화학처리에 의한 Ar과 CO의 흡착열의 변화는 극성기체인 CO의 경우, 별로 변화가 없지만 무극성기체인 Ar은 영향을 받기가 용이하였다. 또한 carrier gas He의 유속이 대략 20~30ml min범위일때 최소의 HETP값을 가지며 column의 효능이 좋았다.

Removal of nutrients from domestic sewage or industrial wastewater is needed to protect surface waters from eutrophication. This research was carried out to remove the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from the wastewater using the iron oxide obtained from the steel industry and the natural zeolite, respectively. This research was conducted in both batch and continuous systems. The removal efficiency of the nutrients was evaluated in the batch system using the varying concentrations of zeolite and iron oxide added. The removal efficiency of N was 60% at the 8g of zeolite added. In the same condition, the removal efficiencies of N were 76% and 82% at 12g and 16g of zeolite added, respectively. Removal efficiency of P was 80% as 8g of iron oxide was added. The removal efficiency of P was correspondingly increased as the concentration of iron oxide was increased. Continuous column system was also used to evaluate the removal efficiency of N and P by the addition of zeolite and ferric oxide, respectively. Removal efficiencies of N were compared in the mixed packing, two stage, and four stage columns, respectively. The removal efficiencies (80%) of N in the separate packed columns (two and four stages) were higher than the mixed packing column (400%) after 90 hr. Whereas, the removal efficiencies of P were similar to each other in the three columns.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate removal efficiency of $NH_4-N$ using the soil column. Soil, oyster shell and natural zeolite were used as a supporting media of soil column. Removal efficiencies of $NH_4-N$ were $35.9\%,\;41\%\;and\;93.4\%$ for the soil column packed with soil, natural $zeolite(20\%)$ and oyster $shell(20\%)$ at HRT of 72 hours, respectively. The addition of $20\%$ oyster shell to the soil accelerated nitrification in soil column. The influent ammonia nitrogen was mostly converted to nitrate nitrogen in the soil column and little ammonia nitrogen was found in the effluent. When the influent $NH_4-N$ concentration was 200 mg/l, the NIL-N removal was decreased at HRT of 48 hours, while nitrification was significantly increased after mechanical aeration. It was suggested that nitrification from higher $NH_4-N$ concentration was more affected by aeration in soil column process. The number of nitrifiers was approximately in a level of about $10^6\;MPN/g{\cdot}soil$ in the soil column mixed with oyster shell ($20\%$).

Membrane distillation (MD) is the thermally driven water separation process based on the vapor pressure difference across the membrane. In order to increase the water recovery of the conventional RO process, the additional MD-PRO pocess was suggested. In this study, the syntheric RO brine was used as a feed solution of the MD process. Due to the high salinity of the RO brine, the MD membrane could be fouled by the scalants. In order to mitigate the scaling on the MD membrane surface, the pre-treatment process using the column filled by natural zeolite was applied. The roughing filter was installed between the pre-treatment process and MD system in order to prevent possible particulate fouling by the debries of the natural zeolite. Moreover, in order to enhance the CEC of the natural zeolite, the NaCl soaking was conducted. The flux and electronic conductivity were monitored under given experimental conditions. And the membrane morphology and the chemical compositions were analyzed by using the SEM-EDX.

This research was conducted to elucidate the removal mechanism of heavy metals and sulfate ion from acid mine drainage(AMD) by porous zeolite-slag ceramics (ZS ceramics) packed in a column reactor system. The average removal efficiencies of heavy metals and sulfate ion from AMD by the 1:3(Z:S) porous ZS ceramics in the column reactor under the HRT condition of 24 hours were Al 97.5%, As 98.8%, Cd 86.1%, Cu 96.2%, Fe 99.7%, Mn 64.1%, Pb 97.2%, Zn 66.7%, and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ 76.0% during 121 days of operation time. The XRD analysis showed that the ferric iron from AMD could be removed by adsorption and/or ion-exchange on the porous ZS ceramics. In addition it was known that Al, As, Cu, Mn, and Zn could adsorb or coprecipitate on the surface of Fe precipitates such as schwertmannite, ferrihydrite, or goethite. The EDS analysis revealed that Al, Fe, and Mn, which were of relatively high concentration in the AMD, would be adsorbed and/or ion-exchanged on the porous ZS ceramics and also exhibited that Al, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Zn could be precipitated as the form of metal hydroxide or sulfate and adsorbed or coprecipitated on the surface of Fe precipitates. The microscopic results on the porous ZS ceramics and precipitated sludge in a column reactor system suggested that the heavy metals and sulfate ion from AMD would be eliminated by the multiple mechanisms of coprecipitation, adsorption, ion-exchange as well as precipitation.

This work assesses the potential of natural Analcime Zeolite as an adsorbent for preconcentration of lead (II) traces. Lead is quantitatively retained on 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol by column method with Analcime in the pH range of 5-6.5 and 2 mL $min^{?1}$ flow rate. Lead was removed from the column with 10.0 mL of 4 M hydrochloric acid and was determined by anodic stripping differential pulse voltammetry. 0.5ppb detection limit was obtained and linear dynamic range was 3 to $1.2{\times}10^5$ ppb in final solution with correlation coefficient of 0.999 and relative standard deviation of ${\pm}$ 1.2% (for eight replicate determination of 2.5 ${\mu}g\;mL^{?1}$ of lead). Various parameters such as the effect of pH, flow rate, instrumental conditions and interferences of some ions on the determination of lead have been studied in detail for optimization of conditions. The method was successfully applied for determination of lead in various samples.

This study was conducted to know the removal characteristics of ammonia nitrogen by commercially available cation exchange resins. Eight acidic cation exchange resins were investigated in batch reactors. Among them, the most effective resin for ammonia removal in solution was PK228, which was a strong acidic resin of $Na^{+}$ type. PK228 was compared with activated carbon and natural zeolite. The effects of cation exchange capacity, ammonia concentration, resin amount, temperature and pH on ammonia removal by PK228 were investigated in batch reactor, and the effect of effluent velocity in continuous column reactor. Strong acidic resins of porous type were more effective than week acidic resins or gel type resins for ammonia removal in solution. PK228 was more effective than activated carbon and natural zeolite for ammonia removal in batch reactor. With increasing initial ammonia concentration, the amount of ammonia removed by PK228 increased, but the proportion of removed ammonia to initial ammonia concentration decreased. The effect or temperature on ammonia removal by PK228 was very slight. The ammonia removal to acidic solution was more effective than that at basic solution. With decreasing effluent velocity of solution through column, breakthrough point extended, and ammonia removal capacity increased.d.

The purpose of th this study was to determine an adsorption capaty of cesium by domestic zeolite, clinoptilolite, which has adsorption selectivity and resistence to radiolytic degradation, and to find the operation of column packed natural or Na cinoptiloite. The exchange capacity of cesium was 0, 875 m eq-per gram of clinopilolite. Na clinoptilolite was mire effective for cesium removal than naturl clioptilolite. Then, the results show that the domestic cilnoptilolite activated with sodium hydroxide colud be applicable for removal of cesium from liquid radwastes.
