Abstract

In this study, the mechanical properties, absorption, and reduction performance of NOx in the mortar containing mineral admixture like zeolite and active hwangtoh were evaluated. Zeolite and active hwangtoh were used as binder, and zeolite and active hwangtoh were substituted for cement. The substitution ratio of two types of mineral admixtures was considered as 20 and 30% respectively. As a result of evaluating the compressive strength and flexural strength of each mortar specimen, the highest strength in the plain mixture was evaluated. As the substitution ratio of zeolite and active hwangtoh increased, the compressive and flexural strength decreased. In addition, the difference of compressive and flexural strength between active hwangtoh and zeolite mixing was evaluated to be insignificant. To evaluate the absorption rate, the mixture was designed to lower the W/B ratio of the existing mixture and set the substitution ratio of active hwangtoh and zeolite at 25%. The highest absorption ratio in the mortar with zeolite was evaluated, and the difference in absorption ratio between the remaining two mortar mixtures was small. The assessment of reduction performance of NOx considering the application of photocatalyst showed a clearly decreasing reduction behavior, even if they were the same mortar mixture. Zeolite and active hwangtoh also showed a higher NOx reduction than the Plain mixture, because of their porosity properties. In the case of active hwangtoh, the absorption ratio was lower than that of zeolite mixture, but the reduction of NOx performance was better than the result of zeolite mixture.

본 연구에서는 무기계 혼화재료인 제올라이트 및 활성 황토를 혼입한 모르타르의 역학적 특성, 흡수율, NOx 저감 성능을 평가하였다. 제올라이트 및 활성 황토는 결합재로서 시멘트의 대체재로 사용되었으며 치환율은 각 20, 30%로 설정하였다. 각 배합의 압축강도 및 휨강도를 평가한 결과, Plain 배합에서 가장 높은 강도가 평가되었다. 제올라이트 및 활성 황토의 혼입율이 증가할수록 강도가 낮아지는 경향이 나타났다. 또한 활성 황토와 제올라이트 혼입 배합간의 강도 차이는 미미한 수준으로 나타났다. 흡수율을 평가하기 위해 기존의 배합의 물-결합재 비를 낮추고 활성 황토 및 제올라이트의 치환률을 25%로 설정한 배합을 설계하였다. 제올라이트 혼입 배합에서 가장 높은 흡수율이 평가되었으며, 나머지 두 배합 간에 흡수율의 차이는 매우 적었다. 광촉매 코팅의 유무를 고려한 NOx 저감 성능을 평가한 결과, 동일 배합이라 하더라도 광촉매를 코팅함에 따라 뚜렷한 NOx 농도 저감이 나타났다. 또한 제올라이트 및 활성 황토는 다공성 성질을 갖기 때문에 Plain 배합 보다 높은 NOx 감소 성능을 나타내었다. 활성 황토 배합의 경우 흡수율은 제올라이트 배합보다 낮은 값을 나타내었지만, 제올라이트 혼입 배합보다 뛰어난 NOx 저감 성능이 나타났다.
