UV조사에 의한 방향족 오염물의 분해
Degradation of Aromatic Pollutants by UV Irradiation
초록
방향족 오염물을 UV산화-고도산화처리기술로 처리할 때, 여러 가지 반응조건에 따른 분해효율에 대해 고찰하였다. 벤젠 50ppm, 에틸벤젠 150ppm, 크실렌 250ppm을 각각 초기농도로하여 UV조사 하에서 시간변화에 따른 분해실험을 행한 결과, 반응 1시간 후 약 95% 이상의 분해율을 나타내었으나, 톨루엔의 경우에는 43%의 분해율을 보였다. 단일성분이 혼합성분에서 보다 분해가 좋았으며, pH변화에서는 벤젠은 pH변화에 관계없이 분해가 잘 되었으며, 에틸벤젠 92%(pH 4.0), 90%(pH 6.4), 91%(pH 10.0), 크실렌 95%(pH 4.0), 90%(pH 6.4), 92%(pH 10.0), 그러나 톨루엔은 80%(pH 4.0), 43%(pH 6.4), 70%(PH 10.0)의 분해율을 나타내었다. 방향족 오염물의 TOC 감소는 에틸벤젠을 제외하고는 유사 1차 반응속도식에 일치하였으며, 이로부터 속도상수를 결정할 수 있었다.
Aromatic pollutants(benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes) were photodegraded by using a UV oxidation and the rates of degradation were investigated under various reaction conditions. Each of the solution containing 50 ppm benzene, 150 ppm ethylbenzene and 250 ppm xylenes was found UV-photodegraded over 90% in 1 hour of reaction time, wheras the only was 43 % degradation was obtained with 350 ppm toluene solution. A single component solution was more degradable than a mixed component solution and benzene was almost photodegraded at a pH 4.0, 6.4 and 10.0 after reaction time is 1 hr, ehtylbenzene was photodegraded about 92%(pH 4.0), 90%(pH 6.4) and 91%(pH 10.0), xylenes was photodegraded about 95%(pH 4.0), 90%(pH 6.4) and 92%(pH 10.0), but toluene was photodegraded about 80%(pH 4.0), 43%(pH 6.4) and 70%(pH 10.0), respectively. Kinetics studies show that the rate of decay in TOC(total organic carbon) were pseudo first-order rate except ethylbenzene, and then we could evaluate mineralization rate constants(k) of aromatics.
