초록

질산성질소와 트리클로로에틸렌(TCE)을 동시에 제거하고자 이들을 화학적 생물학적으로 환원 및 수착시키는 반응매질로서 영가철과 피트(peat)를 이용하였다. 영가철의 수중산화로 발생된 수소가 질산성질소와 TCE를 환원시켜 두 물질이 제거하는데 TCE의 수착제거가 가능한 피트를 이용하고 그에 따른 혼합미생물의 생분해 및 전자전달의 효과를 이용하였다. 질산성질소의 경우 영가철과 피트혼합매질에서 제거효율이 우수하나 제거기작이 환원에 의존하므로 TCE가 공존시 전자에 대한 경쟁으로 그 제거효율이 감소하였으며 멸균처리한 피트를 사용한 실험군과의 결과비교로 탈질균의 작용을 알 수 있었다. TCE의 경우 영가철이 함유된 매질에서 제거효율이 높으며 질산염 공존이 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 생분해하는 혐기성 미생물군의 존재는 시스템에서 발생한 수소와 메탄가스 분석으로 확인하였다.

As common pollutants in surface and groundwater, nitrate nitrogen($NO_3-N$) and trichloroethylene(TCE) can be chemically and biologically reduced by zero valent iron(ZVI) and peat soil. In batch microcosm experiments, chemical reduction of TCE and nitrate was supported by hydrogen from ZVI. For biological degradation of TCE and denitrification peat soil was introduced. ZVI reduced TCE, while peat provided TCE sorption site and microbes performing biological degradation. Nitrate reduction was also achieved by hydrogen from ZVI. In addition, indirect evidence of denitrification was observed. More reduction of TCE and nitrate was achieved by ZVI+peat treatment however nitrated reduction was hindered in the presence of TCE in the system due to the competition for hydrogen. TCE reduction mechanism was more dependent on ZVI, while nitrate was peat-dependent. Hydrogen and methane concentration showed that peat had various anaerobic denitryfing and halorespiring bacteria.
