Abstract

The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ship's Ballast Water and Sediments was adopted at 2004 and then various BWMS (ballast water management system) have been developed. In this study, WET (whole effluent toxicity) test with algae (diatom) Skeletonema costatum as primary producer, invertebrate (rotifera) Brachionus plicatilis as 1st consumer and fish (olive flounder) Paralichthys olivaceus as predator, chemical analysis and ERA (environmental risk assessment) were conducted to assess the unacceptable effect on marine ecosystem by emitting the discharge water treated with AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS using electrolysis as main treatment equipment for removing the marine organisms in the ship's ballast water. The most sensitive test organism on discharge water treated with AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS was S. costatum that gave the NOEC value of 25.00%, LOEC value of 50.00% and 72hr-$EC_{50}$ value of 69.97% from WET test result for 20 psu salinity treated discharge water. NOEC and LOEC value of B. plicatilis and P. olivaceus exposed at 20 psu salinity treated discharge water were 50.00% and 100.00%, respectively. In the chemical analysis results, total number of substances produced by AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS was 18 which were bromate, 7 volatile halogenated organic compounds, 7 halogenated acetic acids, 3 halogenated acetonitriles and chloropicrin. Eighteen substances did not consider as persistence and bioaccumulative chemicals. Uncertainty of toxic property of 18 substances was high. PECs of 18 substances calculated by MAMPEC model were ranged from $4.58{\times}10^{-4}$ to $4.87{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$, PNECs of them were ranged from $1.6{\times}10^{-2}$ to $3.2{\times}10^2{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$. And, the PEC/PNEC ratio of 18 substances did not exceed 1. Therefore, ERA for produced substances indicate that the discharge water treated with AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS does not pose unacceptable effect on marine life. And $EC_{50}$ value of S. costatum on discharge water treated by BWMS using the electrolysis had positive correlation with initial TRO concentration, concentration and kind & level of HAAs.

외래종의 유입을 막기 위해 '선박평형수와 침전물의 제어와 관리를 위한 국제협약'이 2004년에 체결되었고 이에 따라 다양한 선박평형수 관리장치가 개발되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전기분해를 이용하여 선박평형수 내 해양생물 제거를 위한 장치로 개발된 AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS가 해양생태계에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 1차 생산자로서 규조류 Skeletonema costatum, 1차 소비자로서 윤충류 Brachionus plicatilis 및 포식자로서 어류(넙치) Paralichtys olivaceus를 이용하여 AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS의 배출수독성시험과 생성된 화학물질에 대한 환경위해성 평가를 수행하였다. 배출수독성시험결과 가장 민감한 생물은 S. costatum이었고 염분 20 psu 배출수에 노출되었을 때 NOEC 25.00%, LOEC 50.00% 및 72hr-$EC_{50}$이 69.97%였다. B. plicatilis와 P. olivaceus는 염분 20 psu 배출수에 노출되었을 때 NOEC 및 LOEC가 각각 50.00 및 100.00%였다. AquaStarTM BWMS에서 생성된 물질은 총 18개로, bromate, 7개의 volatile halogenated organic compounds, 7개의 halogenated acetic acids, 3개의 halogenated acetonitriles 및 chloropicrin이었다. 생성된 물질들의 지속성과 생물축적성을 보이는 화학물질은 없었으나, 물질의 생태독성을 평가하기에는 불확실성이 높았다. 그러나 MAMPEC 모델을 이용하여 생성된 18개 물질의 PEC는 $4.58{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}4.87{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$였고, PNEC는 $0.016{\sim}320.00{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$였으며, 18개 화확물질의 PEC/PNEC 비율은 1을 초과하지 않았다. 따라서 환경위해성평가결과는 AquaStar$^{TM}$ BWMS에 의하여 처리된 해수가 해양생태계에 수용 불가한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 전기분해를 이용하는 BWMS의 배출수에 대한 S. costatum의 $EC_{50}$은 초기 TRO농도, HAAs의 농도 및 종류수와 양의 상관관계가 있었다.
