Abstract

무기성 폐기물인 준설토를 원료로 인공골재를 제조함에 있어, 직화소성법을 이용하여 소성온도(1100 및 <TEX>$1200^{\circ}C$</TEX>)와 시간(10~60 min)을 변수로 하여 인공골재의 부피비중, 흡수율 그리고 미세구조를 제어하였다. 또한 직화소성과 기존에 발표된 승온소성의 방법 차이에 따른 인공골재의 물성을 비교 분석하였다. 직화소성 시, 소성온도가 <TEX>$1100^{\circ}C$</TEX>에서 <TEX>$1200^{\circ}C$</TEX>로 증가하면, 껍질의 두께가 증가함과 동시에 블랙 코어 부분의 기공크기가 증가하면서 골재의 부피비중이 1.0 이하를 나타내었다. 또한 같은 소성온도에서 소성시간이 증가할수록 블랙코어의 단면적이 감소하고, 껍질의 두께가 증가하면서 흡수율이 감소하였다. 부피비중 1.0 이하의 인공골재는 직화소성이나 승온소성으로 제조된 경우 모두 블랙 코어부분의 미세구조가 서로 비슷한 경향을 나타내었다. 반면, 껍질(shell)의 미세구조는 승온소성된 경우에 더 치밀한 구조를 나타냈으며, 따라서 직화소성된 골재의 흡수율이 상대적으로 높았다. 이로서 직화소성법은 세라믹 담체 또는 흡착제등에 적용될 인공골재 제조에 적합한 방법임을 알 수 있었다. The bulk density, water absorption and microstructure of the artificial aggregates were controlled as a function of sintering temperature (1100 and <TEX>$1200^{\circ}C$</TEX>) and time (10~60 min) in the fabrication process of the artificial aggregates by the direct sintering process using dredged soil, the inorganic wastes. Also, the physical properties of the artificial aggregates fabricated according to the different sintering methods such as the direct sintering method used in this study and the increasing temperature sintering method used in the previous report, were compared and analysed. The bulk density of aggregates sintered at <TEX>$1200^{\circ}C$</TEX> by the direct sintering method showed below 1.0, and the thickness of a shell and the pore size of the black core were increased with sintering temperature. Also, in the same sintering temperature, the area of black core was decreased, the thickness of shell was increased and the water absorption was decreased with sintering time. The black core of artificial aggregates of bulk density below 1.0 had the similar microstructure, regardless of sintering methods. In contrast, the shell of aggregates fabricated by the increasing temperature sintering method showed more dense microstructure than that by direct sintering method, hence the water absorption of aggregate sintered using direct sintering was relatively high. Thus, the direct sintering method is suitable for fabrication of artificial aggregates in ceramic carriers or absorbents applications.
