Abstract

Little research has been conducted to explore the heavy metal removal potential of biochar. The adsorption characteristics of heavy metals by sesame waste biochar (pyrolysis at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour) as heavy metal absorbent were investigated. The sesame waste biochar was characterized by SEM-EDS and FT-IR, and heavy metal removal was studied using Freundlich and Langmuir equations. The removal rates of heavy metals were higher in the order of Pb>Cu>Cd>Zn, showing that the adsorption efficiency of Pb was higher than those of any other heavy metals. Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms were used to model the equilibrium adsorption data obtained for adsorption of heavy metals on biochar produced from sesame waste. Pb, Cu, Cd and Zn equilibrium adsorption data were fitted well to the two models, but Pb gave a better fit to Langmuir model. Heavy metals were observed on the biochar surface after adsorption by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Main functional groups were aromatic C=O ring (at $1160cm^{-1}$, $1384cm^{-1}$ and $1621cm^{-1}$) by FT-IR analysis. Thus, biochar produced from sesame waste could be useful adsorbent for treating heavy metal wastewaters.

참깨 부산물의 중금속 흡착제로서 가능성을 검토하기 위해 $600^{\circ}C$에서 1시간동안 열분해 한 참깨 부산물 biochar를 이용하여 중금속 오염폐수 중의 중금속 흡착특성을 조사하였다. Biochar의 중금속 제거효율은 Pb>Cu>Cd>Zn 순으로 Pb의 흡착효율이 가장 높게 나타났다. 참깨 부산물 biochar를 이용한 흡착실험 결과를 Freundlich와 Langmuir 등온흡 착식에 적용하여 각각의 중금속 인자를 산출한 결과 Langmuir와 Freundlich 등온흡착식 모두에서 Pb의 흡착능력이 Cu, Cd 및 Zn에 비해서 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Pb의 경우는 Langmuir 등온흡착식이 Freundlich 등온흡착식에 비해 더 적합하였으나 Cu, Cd 및 Zn의 경우 저농도에서 약간 차이는 있었으나 두 등온흡착식 모두 적합하였다. 전자현미경 (SEM)을 이용하여 중금속 흡착 전 후의 biochar 표면을 관찰한 결과 중금속 흡착 후에 각각의 중금속이 흡착되어 있는 것을 관찰 할 수 있었다. FT-IR 분석결과 중금속은 주로 방향족 C=O ring stretching ($1160cm^{-1}$ $1384cm^{-1}$ 및 $1621cm^{-1}$)에서 흡착되는 것으로 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과를 미루어 볼 때 참깨 부산물로 제조한 biochar는 중금속 흡착제로서의 활용 가능성이 높을 것으로 판단된다.
