Abstract
본 연구에서는 산업용수의 처리 및 운용 과정에서 중요한 문제점으로 지목되고 있는 탄산칼슘에 의한 스케일 형성을 제어하기 위해 고전압 임펄스 (High Voltage Impulse, HVI) 기술의 활용 가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 전원부, 고전압발생부, 축전기, 스위치 및 임펄스발생기로 구성된 HVI를 제작하여 17kV의 고전압 펄스를 생성시켰다. 반응조에 <TEX>$Ca^{2+}$</TEX>을 포함하고 있는 인공 시료를 투입한 후 HVI를 인가하였다. HVI 접촉시간 5분 후에는 <TEX>$Ca^{2+}$</TEX> 초기값의 3.0% 가량만 감소하였으나, 접촉시간 60분 후에는 약 13.7% 가량 감소하였다. HVI 인가로 인해 용액의 온도와 pH는 증가하였고 전기전도도는 탄산칼슘 석출로 인해 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 칼슘 이온의 감소가 충분하지는 않았지만 전계의 세기 및 접촉시간에 따른 제거율에 간한 구체적인 정보가 얻어진다면, HVI 기술을 적용하여 <TEX>$Ca^{2+}$</TEX> 이온을 탄산칼슘으로 미리 석출시켜 제거하는 연수화 (softening) 공정이나 탈염 기술로 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of application of the high voltage impulse (HVI) technique to the control of scale formation by calcium carbonate, which is pointed out as an important issue in industrial water treatment. The HVI system consisted of the power supply, high voltage generator, capacitors, switch and impulse generator was designed and made in laboratory scale, which can make 17kV impulse. HVI was introduced to the reactor that was filled with synthetic water containing <TEX>$Ca^{2+}$</TEX>ion. The concentration of calcium ion decreased only 3.0% after 5 minutes of contact time. However, it decreased up to 13.7% after 60 minutes of HVI contact time. Temperature and pH increased but conductivity decreased due to precipitation of the calcium carbonate. Although the decrease in concentration of calcium ion was not sufficient, it was verified that the HVI technique could be applicable for the softening and desalting processes.
