Title
Characteristics of Activation, Zeolite and/or TiO₂ Coating on the Surface of the Carbonized Aggregate Manufactured by Sewage Sludge
유영석 Yeong Seok Yoo , 김이태 I Tae Kim
Abstract
Using sewage sludge in which the proportion of inorganic substance is low, the light weight aggregate having high mechanical strength could be manufactured by carbonization at high temperature and/or adding another inorganic substances in the feed. At the same time, the porous carbonized aggregate with light weightness and high strength had absorption/adsorption ability by well developed micro/meso pores. Additionally, trying to enhance the its surface capabilities, TiO2 as a photocatalyst and zeolite as adsorbent of inorganic substance was coated on the surface separately and simultaneously. The porous carbonated aggregate was composed of mesopores of 30 ~ 100Å in size with a pore volume of 0.047cm3/g. Moreover, activation of the porous carbonized aggregate showed 2 times larger specific surface area(70m2/g) than carbonization(35m2/g). Zeolite coating on the surface led to 3 times increase in iodine adsorption capacity. Zeolite/TiO2 coating showed larger adsorption ability to remove methylene blue and only zeolite coating showed relative larger heavy metals adsorption rate other than.
