Abstract

The results of potentiostatic electrolysis of aqueous solution containing fluoride by bipolar packed bed electrolytic cell filled with granular aluminium were summarized. Removal efficiency of fluoride ion which it analyzed with ion chromatograph were 53, 73, 90% in applied voltage. Control the concentration of supporting electrolyte were 10, 30, 50, 70 mg/L and volume of packing material were 0, 25, 50, 75%, respectively, the quantity of electricity was $2.58A{\cdot}hr$ when the concentration of supporting electrolyte was 50 mg/L and the volume of packing material was 75%. As the results of electrolytsis of fluoride aqueous solution containing fluoride 10, 30, 50, 70 mg/L for 3 hours at 10 V, the removal efficiency of fluoride were 93.3, 80, 68.6%. Then the quantity of electricity were 2.58, 3.89, $5.43A{\cdot}hr$ and the fluoride removal amounts per quantity of electricity were 4.0, 3.5, $2.0mg/A{\cdot}hr$.

입자상 알루미늄 충전 복극전해조를 이용하여 불소함유 수용액을 정전위 전해한 결과를 아래에 요약하였다. 이온크로마토그래피로 전해 시료를 분석한 결과 인가전압 1, 5, 10 V에서 불소이온 제거율은 각각 53, 73, 90%이었다. 지지전해질농도를 10, 30, 50, 70 mg/L로 조절하고 알루미늄 충전율을 0, 25, 50, 75%로 충전 후 전기량을 측정한 결과 지지전해질 농도가 50 mg/L일 때와 충전율이 75%일 때에 전기량이 $2.58A{\cdot}hr$이었다. 불소농도를 30, 50, 70 mg/L로 하여 10 V에서 3시간 전해실험 한 결과 불소제거율이 각각 93.3, 80.0, 68.6%이었고 전기량은 2.59, 3.89, $5.43A{\cdot}hr$이었다. 또한 단위전기량 당 불소 제거량은 불소농도 30, 50, 70 mg/L 에서 4.0, 3.5, $2.0mg/A{\cdot}hr$이었다.
