나노물질 제조·사용시설에서 발생한 폐기물의 유해성 연구

In this study, we investigated the distribution of domestic nanomaterials. Zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and silver (Ag) nanoparticles, as well as carbon (C) nanotubes, were selected, and their circulation and quantity in use was investigated. We also analyzed leaching and of heavy metals in nanowaste. Chemical composition was determined using Xray diffraction and fluorescence (XRD and XRF) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Using XRF and XRD analysis, sludge from a facility using zinc oxide was found to have silicon dioxide (SiO2) and TiO2 as its main components. Sludge from a facility using TiO2 was found to have TiO2 as its main component. Samples of Ag nanoparticle and C nanotubes manufacturer measured elemental components of Ag and C, respectively. TEM analysis showed Si O2 in the form of dust sample from a facility manufacturing ZnO. Carbon nanotube samples of manufacturers were in the form of fibers. Leaching test results showed low concentrations compared to the regulation criteria of the Wastes Control Act. Content result of Zn was detected at -111.7 ~ 24,843.4 mg/kg in ZnO samples. Content result of Ti was detected at 1.51 ~ 35.28 mg/kg in TiO2 samples. Oil mop samples of Ag nanoparticle were detected in Ag (29,643.07 mg/kg) and Cu (15,600.8 mg/kg).
