Electrophoretic Particle Movement in Suspension Considering the Gravitational Settling and Sedimentation of Clayey Soil

국문 초록 (Abstract)

다공질매체를 통한 미세 입자의 이동은 고함수비 오염준설토의 탈수 및 오염물질의 제거와 같은 지반의 안정화 처리 및 토양의 정화에 있어서 중요한 메커니즘이 되고 있다. 일반적으로 음전하를 갖는 미세 입자들은 동전기영동의 영향으로 양극(+)방향으로 이동하게 된다. 그러나 중금속과 같은 양전하를 띈 오염물질로 흡착된 미세 입자의 경우 중금속의 종류 및 오염도에 따라 동전기영동에 의한 움직임은 제약을 받을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 자연상태의 미세토립자의 침강거동 및 직류전류의 영향 하에서 발생되는 동전기영동에 의한 침강 거동에 대하여 조사하였다.

Contaminated sediments more than 30 million/$m^3$ is generated from dredging work for harbours and coastal maintenance in Korea. Approximately 300 million/$m^3$ of sediments is dredged to deepen harbours and shipping lanes in US and of which $3{\sim}12million/m^3$ is highly contaminated. Although much is known about technologies for the remediation of heavy metal contaminated soil, much less is known about the treatment of contaminated sediment. In general, negatively charged fine particles will migrate towards positively charged system of electrodes under the influence of electrophoresis. However, the electrically induced migration of colloidal particles contaminated with heavy metals may be hindered by the positively charged heavy metal contaminants adsorbed onto the soil surfaces depending on the contamination level. This paper demonstrates settling behaviour of clayey soil by comparison with electrophoretic particle movement under the effects of heavy metal contamination, applied electric field strength, and its polarity changed by the electrode configuration.
