Ultrasonic waves have several mechanical, chemical, and biological effects on a saturated soil medium. Their mechanical effects, popularly known as cavitation. Cavitation is the rapid and repeated formation, and resulting implosion, of imcrobubbles in a liquid, resulting in the propagation of microscopic shock waves. In a soil-liquid system, their mechanical effects generate high differntial fluid-particle velocities and microscopic shock waves. The velocity perturbations are capable of dislodging oil in the system by overcoming the forces binding oil to sand particles. In this study, a series of laboratory experiments involving the simple flushing and ultrasonic flushing were carried out. An increase in permeability and oil removal rate were observed in ultrasonic flushing tests. Some practical implications of these results are discussed in terms of technical feasibility of in situ implementation of ultrasonics.

Phytoremediation which uses plants to enhance the bioremediation through stimulation of microbial activity and root uptake, has been a topic of increasing interest. Mathematical model were developed that can be applied to various bioremediation methods in the unsaturated zone, especially phytoremediation, for simulating the fate and transport of contaminants under field conditions. A 2-year field study was conducted using 72 (1.5m long and 0.1 m diameter) column lysimeters with four treatments: Johnsongrass; wild rye grass; a rotation of Johnsongrass and wild rye grass; and unplanted fallow conditions. The developed model represented the fate and transport of contaminant both in vegetated and unplanted soils satisfactorily for field applications. Parameters related to the contaminant concentration in the water phase were the main parameters determining the contaminant fate in the vadose zone and indicated that the bioavailability can be the most important factor in the success of phytoremediation as well as bioremediation applications.

The effect of in-situ chemical oxidation on the indigenous soil microorganisms (total microbes and PAH-degrading microbes) and contaminant removal were investigated. Field soil contaminated with diesel in gas station was collected and the soil was treated from 0 to 900 minutes by in-situ ozonation as chemical remediation. The treated soil samples were incubated with supplying oxygen during the 9 weeks to understand the characteristics of microbes regrowth, damaged by ozone. The sharp decrease of aromatic fraction and TPH was observed within 60 minutes of ozone application and aromatic fraction and TPH then slowly decreased. The phenanthren-degrading bacteria were the most sensitive to ozonation, because 1 hour of ozonation reduced the microbes from 10$^{6}$ CFU/g-soil to below detection limits.

We describe a modified method for effectively pretreating soil highly contaminated with ANT or BaA (both initial Conc. are 500 mg/kg soil), i.e., we apply Fenton oxidation in which ethanol is added to increase ANT and BaA removal. At least 0.5 $m\ell$ or 0.75 $m\ell$ of ethanol were added to 1 g of artificially ANT or BaA-contaminated soils (i.e., alluvial and sandy soil), respectively. This was followed by Feton oxidation in which various amounts of $H_2O$$_2$ and Fe$^{2+}$ were added. The results showed more than 98 % of ANT or BaA removal efficiency However less than 10 % of ANT and BaA removal efficiency was obtained in addition of distilled water or sodium dodecy1 sulfate. Additionally, we employ GC-MS to identify the main oxidation product generated by the optimized Fenton reaction [i.e., ANT or BaA degraded in to 69-73% 9,10-anthracenedione (ANTDI) or 43-51% 7,12-benz(a)anthracenedione (BaADI), respectively]. The biodegradability of ANTDI or BaADI are subsequently confirmed to be much more rapid than that of ANT or BaA, respectively, results suggesting that Fenton oxidation with ethanol-microbial treatment can be effectively applied to remove ANT or BaA from soil.l.

In this study, feasibility of using hydrogen peroxide as a chemical oxidant for in-situ treatment by EK-Fenton technology were investigated. Kaolinite, kaolinite/sand mixture and illitic soil spiked by phenol and phenanathrene were used and variation of electrochemical characteristics were examined by EK-Fenton test. For kaolinite that having low buffer capacity, hydrogen peroxide was injected effectively from anode reservoir. However illitic soil that having relatively higher buffer capacity had low hydrogen peroxide introducing efficiency. The test results showed that Hydrogen ions generated by current increased during the treatment decreased under pH 3 in the most of kaolinite specimen. Therefore, stabilized hydrogen oxide was injected more effectively in the kaolinite specimen. This study suggests that efficiency of hydrogen peroxide injection by EK-Fenton thechnoloty is dependent of variation of pH in the soil

In this study, electrochemical characteristics variation and removal efficiency with initial pH and mineral compositions during electrokinetic remediation of lead contaminated soils were investigated. Test results showed that heavy metal transportation affected by soil characteristics and electrochemical characteristics varied during electrokinetic remediation. Therefore, in the application of enhanced electrokinetic remediation technique to increase removal efficiency, discrete selection of enhanced technique with characteristics of targeted soil were needed.

A series of tests were performed to investigate the effects of pH and contamination level on cation exchange capacity and zeta potential in kaolinite loaded with lead. Test results show that cation exchange capacity of kaolinite is found to be in the range from 4 to 20meq/100g and it increased with increasing pH up to the converged number about 20meq/100g over pH 8. And then CEC has a tendency to reduce and converge to zero with increasing the concentration of Pb in the kaolinite surface. Moreover, zeta potential of kaolinite contaminated with lead is found to be in the range from -10 to 5mV, and zero point of charge is measured at about pH 3.5. Zeta potential of kaolinite contaminated with lead decreases with increasing pH values and decreasing Pb concentration of kaolinite.

Washing technique using solubilization and surfactant as a extractant was studied by removing contaminants from the cohesive soil contaminated with heavy metal. For this purpose, the laboratory desorption batch tests were peformed in the kaolinite contaminated with lead by using acetic acid as a solubilization and SDS as a anionic surfactant. In desorption batch tests, the effects of extractant concentration and mixing ratio were investigated and also the coupling effects of acetic acid added with surfactant were considered. Test results show that the removal efficiency of acetic acid as a extractant in the kaolinite contaminated with lead increased with increasing the concentration of acetic acid and the acetic acid was found to be more effective when adding CMC 2 or 3 of surfactant. Additionally, regardless of the initial concentration, the efficiency of lead removal from the contaminated soil increased with increasing shaking ratio.

워싱턴주 벤쿠버시 Bonneville 전력소 전주 보관 지역내 PCP와 creosote 오염토양 2g 당 0.020g heme에 0.108g $H_2O$$_2$을 혼합한 산화방법과 0.035g hemoglobin에 0.324g $H_2O$$_2$을 혼합한 산화방법을 비교ㆍ조사하였다. 오염토양에 $^{14}$ C-PCP을 첨가한 다음에 $^{14}$ C의 물질수지를 조사한 결과, 24시간동안 반응 후 $^{14}$ $CO_2$는 heme 과 hemoglobin반응에서는 각각 3.50g와 3.88% 생산되었다. $^{14}$ C 물질수지 분포는 heme 촉매 산화반응에서 용매 상에 43.01% 토양 상에는 46.03%이고, hemoglobin 촉매 산화반응에서는 용매 상에 39.21%와 토양 상에 51.25%로 비슷한 분포를 보였다. 실험실 규모 pan 실험에서 초기 PCP농도 273$\pm$20 mg/kg과 TPH 6379$\pm$45 mg/kg인 오염토양에서 hemoglobin 촉매 산화 반응이 초기반응을 제외하고 7일 이후 반응에서 heme 촉매 산화반응보다 빠르게 분해되었고, 35일 반응 이후 PCP는 10 mg/kg 이하의 값을 나타내었고, TPH도 유사한 결과를 보여 주었다. 그러므로 건조 hemoglobin과 과산화수소에 의한 PCP 오염토양 복원기술은 분해율이 높고 경제성을 가지고 있으므로 기존의 복원공정을 대안으로 제시될 수 있다.

Pretreatment technologies are defined as technologies that prepare or condition dredged material for subsequent, more rigorous treatment processes. The objectives of this study are to test the feasibility of treating dredged sediment using pretreatment process(hydrocyclone, sedimentation basin, and flotation), and to estimate design parameters for a pilot-plant design. The final goal of the project is to recycle the dredged sediment that is otherwise reused as construction materials.

An alternative to pump and treat groundwater remediation is the use of reactive barriers. Zero valent iron (ZVI) is particularly useful as a reductant of chlorinated hydrocarbons because of its low cost and lack of toxicity ZVI can drive the dechlorination of chlorinated organic compounds and the reduction of chromium from the Cr(Ⅵ) to the Cr(III) state. The contaminants in subsurface environment usually exist as the mixed compounds. Therefore, the objective of this research is to study the effect of the other compounds on TCE removal by ZVI. The removal mechanism of TCE by ZVI is separated the dechlorination and sorption. TCE removal by ZVI slightly increased in presence of naphthalene as the non-reduced compound. TCE removal by ZVI remarkable decreased in presence of carbon tetrachloride, nitrate, and chromate as the reduced compounds. This research suggests that the effect of the coexisted compounds on the removal chlorinated compounds by reactive barrier technology should be considered for practical application.

Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) are in-situ barriers constructed in a subsurface to treat contaminated groundwater using various reactive media. The common reactive medium used in PRB is zero-valent iron, which has been widely used to treat chlorinated solvents (i.e., PCE, TCE). A disadvantage of iron media is high cost. In this study, waste foundry sands were tested to determine the feasibility of their use as a low cost reactive medium. Batch and column tests were conducted with TCE to determine transport parameters and reactivity of the foundry sands. The reactivities of foundry sands for common groundwater contaminants are comparable to or slightly higher than those for Peerless iron, a common medium used in PRBs. In addition, the TOC and clay in foundry sands can significantly retard the movement of target contaminant, which may result in lower effluent concentration of contaminant due to biodegradation. In general, PRBs 1-m thick can be constructed with many foundry sands to treat TCE provided the zero-valent iron content in the foundry sand is higher than 1%.

In this work, cost effective venting is considered by comparing flow rates of 5$m\ell$/min, 10$m\ell$/min, and 20$m\ell$/min. Studies were performed on a soil artificially contaminated with diesel oil (the initial TPH(Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) concentration of 7098mg/kg), and nutrient condition was C:N:P rate of 100:10:1. The soil has a sandy texture with pH of 6.8, 2.16 ~2.38% organic matter, a total porosity of 47~52% and field capacity 16.2~ 17.2%. The column experiments was made of glass column of 60cm length and 10cm I.D. at controlled temperature of 2$0^{\circ}C$($\pm$2.5$^{\circ}C$). The efficiency of continuous flow rate of 5, 10 and 20$m\ell$/min resulted in separately 61.3%, 58.1%, and 55% reduction of initial TPH concentration(7098mg/kg). Hydrocarbon utilizing microbial count and dehydrogenase activity in air flow of 5$m\ell$/min were higher than those of the others. The first order degradation rate of n-alkanes ranging from C10 to C28 was higher than that of pristane and phytane as isoprenoids. The $C_{17}$/pristane and $C_{18}$phytane ratios for monitoring the degree of biodegradation were useful only during the early stages of oil degradation. Degradation contributed from about 89% to 93% of TPH removal. Volatilization loss of diesel oil in contaminated soil was about 7% to 11%, which was significantly small compared to degradation.n.

Biofilter performance to reduce C $H_4$ emissions from MSW landfills was tested under a variety of environmental and design conditions. The optimum soil moisture content for C $H_4$ oxidation in a loamy sand was 13% by weight. The addition of N $O_3$-N did not affect the C $H_4$ oxidation rate. Soil depths of 30cm and 60cm were equally efficient in C $H_4$ oxidation. When the C $H_4$ loading rate was decreased, the percentage of C $H_4$ oxidized increased. The maximum C $H_4$ oxidation rate was 27.2 mol $m^{-2}$ $d^{-1}$ under optimum conditions (loamy sand soil, 13% moisture content, 30cm soil depth, and an loading rate of 32.8 mol $m^{-2}$ $d^{-1}$). Based on the above results, the installation of a properly sized and managed biofilter above a landfill cover should be capable of achieving a major reduction in atmospheric methane emissions from MSW landfills built with RCRA covers.

국내 대부분의 회처리장은 연안에 위치하고 또한 해수를 석탄회 이송수로 사용하고 있다. 따라서 석탄회 -염수의 상호작용에 의하여 석탄회가 풍화가 진행되고 석탄회내의 독성 미량원소 용출특성도 육상처리장과는 다르게 나타날 것으로 예상된다. 그러나, 염수와 석탄회의 반응에 의한 독성미량원소의 용출 및 거동, 그리고 석탄회의 풍화 진행양상에 대한 연구는 국내.외적으로 전무한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 연안 석탄회 매립장에서의 염수-석탄회 반응에 의한 독성미량원소의 용출 및 거동, 그리고 석탄회의 풍화 진행양상에 대한 연구를 수행하였다.

제주도 동부지역 구좌읍 한동리-송당리를 연결하는 직선상의 4개 지점에서 착정한 심부관측정에 대한 시추코어 지질검층과 심도별 수온ㆍ전기전도도 검층 결과, 제주도를 형성시킨 화산활동과 관련된 화산분출물(용암류 및 쇄설물)은 해수면하 136~170m 범위까지만 분포하고 있고, 그 하부에는 미교결의 U층(U Formation)이 분포하고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 구좌읍 한동리에 소재한 둔지봉(해발 280m)을 경계로 해안지역의 U층 상부에는 용암이 바다속으로 흘러갈 때 생겨나는 베개용암(Pillow Lava)이 분포하고 있음이 최초로 확인되었으며, 이 베개용암층을 통해 고염분지하수가 내륙쪽으로 확산되는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 담수지하수체 하부에 존재하는 고염분 지하수체는 해안에서 내륙쪽으로 오면서 점진적으로 감소하고 기저지하수체(담ㆍ염수 혼합대를 형성하는 지하수체)는 해안으로부터 약 6~6km(해발 120~130m)지역까지 분포하고 있으며, 담수지하수 렌즈체의 두께는 이론적인 G-H비 보다 훨씬 얇은 것으로 나타났다.

When the United Nation classified as Korea is the one of the water deficit country. The consensus was made that the water is the one of the precious national resources. Government increases their R/D budget trying to get more clean water bodies. For instances, 'Sustainable Water Resources Development' project is the one of major title in '21 Century Frontier Research project and there are several small research projects are undergoing by the Ministry of Agriculture and KARICO. However, when the environmental preservation issue has been get more emphasis, construction of the Surface Dam met the blockage from the environmentalists due to the problem of the their water buried area. Since the most fitting site for surface dam had been used in the past, some engineer move their focus on modification of the existing Dam's height to enlarge its capacity or dredging the bottom of the reservoir recently However dredging evoke water quality problem in return by accumulated materials at the bottom. Last year the Dong Gang Dam plan has been canceled by environmental problem in water buried area of the reservoir. With the point of this view, ground water gets more focus for the one of the useful alternative for clean water bodies. Underground dam technique which had widely applied once in the early nineteen eighties by the KARICO and attenuated due to engineering insufficiency. The technique is newly studied with the advanced engineering technique. Still groundwater usage rate in Korea is much lower comparing with the advanced countries and has many rooms to develop. Wells, under ground dam and radial collector wells are typical facilities up to now. There is little application in Korea for the Recharge Dam, which had been widely used in the advanced countries. The Recharge Dam is technique to conjunct surface water and groundwater body together, This technique had developed to increase groundwater recharge at the beginning This research is the result of the study on the possibility of the development of the new technology, Groundwater Reservoir' which was modified from Recharge Dam. Groundwater Reservoir is like a deep artificial lakes trenched in hard rock aquifer to get groundwater. The advantage of the Groundwater Reservoir is followings 1) It can be developed at the plains area, not in the deep valley 2) Huge water body can be developed without dam 3) Small buried area comparing surface water dam makes the least environmental effect. 4) Trenching cost can be substitute by the income of the selling rock debris 5) Outfit of the reservoir can be modified to match with the site prospect 6) Rock debris can be used as constructing materials 7) It can be used as groundwater recharge system when the heavy rains comes 8) The reservoir looks like scenery lake with huge clean water bodies.

This research introduces some preliminary results of bank filtering intake method adopted in Dalseo area, Nakdong River. This intake method has been planned to supply water resources of 41,000 ㎥/day to Goryeong-Gun and Seongju-Gun in 2016. It is believed that the bank filtering intake method can afford to supply 41,000 ㎥/day amount of water resources and that the raw water quality using the method has more advantages in water treatment than direct surface water intake. Even though the safety yield about individual vertical well is roughly estimated to about 2,000 ㎥/day, it is desirable to decrease the safety yield to about 1,000 ㎥/day in the consideration of long term and simultaneous well pumpings and other unknown factors. Ongoing study will give basic data and new techniques to solve the problems appearing in application of bank filtering method as well.

Numerical experiments were performed to investigate horizontal barrier formation in unsaturated soils by permeation grouting through multiple vertical injection pipes. The results were compared with the horizontal barrier formation achieved by using multiple horizontal injection pipes. It was observed that tile point injection of the vertical pipe system generates a gel barrier that has a less lateral area than the injection through the horizontal pipe.

A new finite difference model is developed for solute transport in a fractured medium that can consider advection, adsorption, first-order decay, and scale-dependent dispersivity of individual fractures. In the model, the dispersivity of individual fractures is employed as a variable increasing with travel distance from a source. The model is verified using an analytical solution for a single fracture. A solution from the new model is independent of the outlet boundary condition of fractures, and has little numerical dispersion error.

In order to delineate the flow system of fractured hard rock aquifer, numerical experiments are conducted and the results are analyzed with Mote Carlo simulation. The results show that the percolation threshold and the effective conductivity of a fracture network can be estimated with power law exponent (a) and fracture intensity. But the dependability of the estimated value relies on the percolation threshold, the system scale, and the characterization level.

Statistical- based, principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to chemical data from two underground storage systems containing LPG to assess the usefulness of such technique at the initial stage (Pyeongtaek) or middle stage (Ulsan) of hydrochemical studies. For the first case, both natural and anthropogenic contamination characterize regional groundwater. Saline water buffered by Namyang lake affects as a natural factor, whereas cement grouting influence as an artificial factor. For the second study area, contaminations due to operation of LPG caverns, such as disinfection activity and cement grouting effect, deteriorate groundwater quality. This study indicates that principal component analysis would be particularly useful for summarizing large data set for the purpose of subsurface characterization, assessing their vulnerability to contamination and protecting recharge zones.

Sorption and desorption studies were conducted to evaluate several media as a potential biobarrier for the remediation of groundwater contaminated with hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs). Pahokee and Bion peats, Devonian Ohio shale, vermicompost, and 50% HDTMA-montmorillonite were used as model sorbents. Sorption and desorption isotherms were determined using the radiolabeled phenanthrene (Phe). Sorption capacity of Phe on several sorbents was in the order Ohio shale > 50% HDTMA-montmorillonite > vermicompost > Pahokee peat. Mineralization kinetics was investigated for Phe-sorbed sorbents using Pseudomonas putida 17484. Among the tested sorbents, active biodegradation of Phe was observed in shale and vermicompost: degradation in shale exhibited little lag time while that in shale showed a significant lag time. Results of this study indicate that sorbents used in this work can be utilized as permeable reactive biobarrier media for the remediation of HOC-contaminated groundwater.

The kinetics and stoichiometry of the reduction of hexavalent chromium (Cr(Ⅵ)) with ferrous iron (Fe(II)) were examined in systems with and without aquifer solids. Cr(Ⅵ) reduction was rapid in the absence of solids, but demonstrated slower and more complex kinetics in the presence of aquifer solids. The aquifer solids removed Fe(II) from solution and a portion of the reducing capacity of Fe(II) was transferred to the aquifer solids. The solid phases were then able to continue to remove Cr(Ⅵ). This suggests in-situ treatment of Cr(Ⅵ) by Fe(II) injection would be feasible in the aquifer environment. In general, re-oxidation of reduced chromium by molecular oxygen was not observed in our systems over time periods of nearly one year.

Contaminant transport in porous media is characterized by solving an advection-dispersion equation(ADE). The ADE can cover equilibrium phenomena of interest, which include sorption, decay, and chemical reactions. Among these phenomena, sorption mechanism is described by several types of sorption isotherm. If we assume the sorption isotherm as linear, the solution of ADE can be easily procured. However, if we consider the sorption isotherm as non-linear isotherm like a Dual Reactive Domain Model (DRDM), the resulting differential equation becomes non-linear. In this case, the solution of ADE cannot be easily acquired by an analytic method. In this paper, we present the numerical analysis of ADE using a DRDM. The results reveal that even if sorption data may be fitted well using linear or non-linear isotherm, the characteristics of contaminant transport of the two cases are different from each other. To be concrete, the retardation of linear isotherm has stronger effect than that of the DRDM. As the non-linearity of sorption isotherm increases, the difference of retardation effects of the two cases becomes larger. For a pulse source, the maximum concentration of the linear model is higher than that of the DRDM, but the plume of the DRDM moves faster than that of the linear model. Behaviors of contaminant transport using the DRDM are consistent with common features of a linear model. For instance, biodegradation effect becomes larger as time goes by The faster the seepage velocity is, the faster the plume of contaminant moves. The plume of the contaminant is distributed evenly over overall domain in the event of high dispersion coefficient.

Recently, the contamination with heavy metals in closed mines has been seriously considered since it can disturb human health through the polluted drinking-water and crops. Therefore, the concerns about the remediation of polluted land and treatment technology for hazardous matters have been accelerated. However, any of practical methods for treatment and/or remediation have not been yet suggested. In this research, a novel technology was studied to immobilize arsenic in tailings and soils disturbed by mining. In this technology, Fenton-like reaction were applied to immobilize arsenic in tailings. In the examination of Fenton-like reaction using pure pyrite, $H_2O$$_2$ and arsenic, the concentrations of extracted arsenic and iron were reduced up to 90 and 75%, respectively From the result of SEM-EDS, the Immobilization of arsenic was observed on the surface of pyrite. Thus, it can be said that the coating and/or adsorption prevents the extraction of arsenic.

제주도에 내리는 강수의 동위원소 조성의 시공간적인 분포를 파악하고 지하수 함양과의 관련성을 연구하기 위하여, 한라산의 남측과 북측 사면에 8개의 강수채수기를 설치하여 1년 동안 (2000. 9 ~ 2001. 8) 월강수를 채취하였다. 연구기간 동안에 강수량은 남쪽사면이 북쪽사면보다 약 37% 더 많았다. 강수의 산소동위원소 조성은 온도효과를 거의 보이지 않았다. 그러나 여름 강우에는 우량효과가 매우 뚜렷하였다. 고도가 높아지면서 강수의 동위원소 조성이 낮아지는 고도효과가 남측과 북측사면에서 모두 뚜렷이 관찰되었다. 가중평균값으로 볼 때 북측사면 강수의 동위원소 조성이 남측사면 강수보다 약 0.5$^{0}$ $_{00}$ 낮은 것이 관찰되었는데 이는 비그늘효과(rain shadow effect) 때문인 것으로 해석된다. 다른 지역에 비하여 북부지역 지하수 동위원소 조성이 상대적으로 결핍되어 있는 것은 기존 연구 결과처럼 지하수 이동속도가 빠르기 때문에 일어나는 현상이 아니고 지하수로 함양된 강수의 원래의 동위원소 조성을 반영하기 때문인 것으로 해석된다.다.

본 연구의 목적은 부산 동남부 해안지역의 대수층에서 염수화에 미치는 조건들을 파악하고 해수침투 범위를 추정하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 Tidal damping method와 SUTRA 모델링을 실시하고 대수층의 특성 및 염수화가능성을 파악하였으며, 모델링 결과의 타당성을 판단하기 위하여 전기비저항 탐사를 실시하였다. Tidal damping method에 의한 시간지연과 조석효율효과를 계산하여 대수층의 저류계수를 산출한 결과 시간지연 현상에 의한 방법이 적합하게 나타났다. SUTRA 모델링 결과, 건기인 5월에는 종분산 지수가 2.5m 일 때 500ppm의 TDS 등치선을 기준으로 해안에서 약 510m 내륙까지 해수의 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 우기인 7월에는 강수로부터 다량의 지하수 함양에 의한 지하수위 상승을 고려하여, 평균수리경사를 0.008로 설정한 조건에서는 500ppm의 TDS 등치선을 기준으로 해안에서 약 410m 내륙까지 해수의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타난다. 5월과 7월의 전기비저항 탐사결과를 비교하면 7월의 전기비저항 분포가 전반적으로 높게 나타났다. 그 이유는 6, 7월의 강수에 의한 지하수의 유입이 증가하여 침투된 염수의 농도가 다소 낮아졌기 때문이다.

Groundwater Dam is one of the reliable techniques to get huge amount of groundwater abstraction for municipal, agricultural, drinking, industrial water supply system. It can be a major technique to solve water shortage problems when it based on the sufficient watershed, proper topology, and adequate aquifer distribution and pollution control. It is suggested that the two consecutive underground wall in the coastal area to prevent seawater intrusion beneath a single wall.

질산성질소 및 탁도로 오염된 지하수공에 대하여 환경성 복원을 위한 오염방지 시설을 시범 설치하였다. 지하수공에 대한 오염 정도를 조사한 결과 PS-1, CW-1, 그리고 CW-2 공이 질산성질소로 오염되어 먹는물 수질기준을 초과하였고, CW-3 공은 탁도가 먹는물 수질기준을 초과하였다. 오염원은 지하수공 개발시 수량 확보를 위하여 그라우팅을 제대로 하지 않은 불량시공으로 인한 오염된 지표수의 유입으로 기인되었다. 금번 연구는 오염된 지하수의 환경성 복원을 위한 것으로, 오염원과 지하수를 격리시켜 오염물질의 지하수 내 유입을 방지할 수 있도록 패커 그라우팅을 완벽하게 다시 실시하였으며, 오염방지시설을 설치하였다. 이 연구를 위하여 먼저 대수층의 분포 및 특성팍악, 지하수공내 지표수의 유입구간 규명, 지하수 오염원, 오염실태, 오염경로 등을 파악하였다 오염방지시설을 설치한 후, 설치 전,후의 질산성질소와 탁도의 함량을 비교하기 위하여 수질 분석을 실시하였다. PS-1의 경우, 오염방지시설 설치전의 질산성질소 함량은 16.1 mg/L 이었으나, 설치후에는 8.1 mg/L, 7.9 mg/L로써 설치전에 비하여 51% 감소되었으며, CW-1은 10.3 mg/L에서 6.3mg/L으로 39%, 그리고 CW-2는 14.9 mg/L에서 9.0 mg/L 으로 40% 감소되었다. CW-3 공의 탁도는 157 NTU에서 0.97 NTU로 완벽하게 복원되었다.

Innovative and nondestructive characterization techniques have been developed to locate and quantify nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) in the vadose and saturated zones in the subsurface environment. One such technique is the partitioning interwell tracer test (PITT). The PITT is a simultaneous displacement of partitioning and non-partitioning tracers through a subsurface formation. Partitioning tracers will partition into the NAPL during their transport through NAPL-contaminated formations. Mean travel times of partitioning and non-partitioning tracers are used to estimate the quantity of NAPL encountered by the displaced tracer pulse. Travel times are directly proportional to the partitioning coefficient and the volume of NAPL contacted in the subsurface environment. This paper discusses the conceptual background, design and implementation of PITTs.

The concurrent injection of cosolvent and air, a cosolvent-air (CA) flood was recently suggested for a dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) remediation technology. The objectives of this study were to elucidate the DNAPL removal mechanisms of the CA flood and to quantify mass transfer rate coefficients during CA flooding. DNAPL removal mechanisms were examined by evaluating the effects of air flow rate and DNAPL solubility and visually documented at a pore-scale. Two serial processes, immiscible displacement and dissolution, were experimentally and visually documented during CA flooding. Mass transfer rate coefficients (K) were computed from the data showing PCE saturation versus time. Results showed that CA floods exhibited higher K values than cosolvent floods without concurrent air injection. (This document has not been subjected to Agency review and therefore does not necessarily reflect the views of the Agency, and no official endorsement should be inferred.)

Seoul subway system has been constructed to solve traffic difficulties of Seoul metropolitan, and now is the major public transportation. However, the more line has added in the system the deeper the bottom of the tunnel base. And a huge amount of groundwater along the line has seeping into the tunnel. Several subway stations has pumping system to extract the groundwater to the outside and consequently, groundwater table along the line has declined gradually. Groundwater table has dropped about 40 meters at some areas, There was some study for the proper usage of the abstracted groundwater and the project to use the groundwater has launched already by the local government. However. more serious problem is expected on quality degradation of soil and groundwater as the decline of groundwater table along the subway line. This study suggests that the detailed groundwater environmental study should be made as soon as possible for this. If there is any pollution leaking at the surface area of the groundwater depression, the pollution will be seep into the subway tunnel in some day even though the time will be different with the soil material and hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer. And the polluted area of the soil and groundwater would be enlarged along the pathway The study on possibility of the soil subsidence and reducing surface water flow in small creek were also needed. This study suggest one of the counter measurement that restoring the declined groundwater table after groundwater environmental study

지하수함양은 크게 강우 중에 침투되는 자연함양, 하천 또는 저수지에서 침투되는 지표수 함양, 인위적으로 물을 지하로 침투시키는 인공함양 등이 있는데, 본 연구에서는 강우에 의해 지하로 침투되는 자연함양율을 구하기 위하여 다음 두 가지 방법을 이용하여 지하수함양율을 산출하고자 하였다. 첫 번째 누적강수량과 지하수수위곡선을 이용하는 방법(문상기, 우남칠, 2001)은 강우기간 중 누적강수량을 고려하여 지하수위변화로부터 지하수함양율을 추정하고, 두 번째 무강우기간 동안의 지하수위감수곡선을 이용하는 방법(최병수, 안중기, 1998)은 토양특성, 증발산을 배재한 상태에서 무강우기간의 지하수위감쇠곡선으로부터 함양량을 추정한다. 즉 같은 지역에서 선행강우기간 중 지하수침투가 시작되는 강우량과 어떤 시점에서의 강우기간 중 지하수침투가 시작되는 강우량의 차이가 토양함수조건에 따라 다를 수 있으나 평균개념으로 볼 때 그 차이가 무시될 수 있다고 가정하여 토양특성을 배재하고, 지하수수위가 지표에서 1.0~l.5m이상 되면 지하수로부터의 증발산은 무시될 수 있다고 가정하고 있다. 연구지역은 충청북도 청원군 북일면과 북이면에 위치하며, 지하수위 장기관측은 암반관정과 충적관정을 두 지점에 설치하여 총 4개의 관측정에서 지하수위자동측정기 Orphimedes (기포식수위계, OTT Hydrometrie사 제작)로 1시간 간격으로 지하수위변화를 기록하였다(그림1, 그림2). 강우량은 현장에서 자기우량계(모델명 : HGR-200, SEBA Hydrometrie사 제작)를 설치하여 직접 측정하였고, 자료가 유실된 기간은 청주기상대 자료로 보완하였다. 그러나 본 연구지역은 면적이 32.35$\textrm{km}^2$이고 1998년까지 개발된 기설관정의 개수가 무려 1,547여공으로 단위면적당 관정수는 48여공/$\textrm{km}^2$로 다른 지역에 비해 관정이 밀집되어 있어 지하수연간사용량을 무시할 수 없다. 그림2에서 보는 바와 같이 주변관정들의 양수로 인하여 관측정에서의 지하수위변화가 영향을 받는 것을 알 수 있다. 그러므로 본 연구지역을 대상으로 추정한 함양율은 지하수이용에 따른 지하수위하강에 대한 보정을 할 필요가 있으며 지하수이용실태조사를 추가로 하여 그 이용량만큼을 지하수함양량에 더하여야 할것이다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate petroleum hydrocarbon degradation processes governing natural attenuation at tile contaminated site and accomplished through conducting on investigation of degradation rate, capacity, and mechanism of the monitored natural attenuation. The monitoring results of the three years indicated that the concentrations of DO, nitrate, and sulfate in the contaminated area were significantly lower than these in the none-contaminated area. The results also showed a higher ferrous iron concentration, a lower redox potential and a neutral pH in the contaminated groundwater, suggesting that biodegradation of TEX is the major on-going process in the contaminated area. However, reduction of TEX in the groundwater was not only biodegradation but also dilution and reaeration during infiltration of uncotaminated surface and groudwater.

The objective of this study is to predict behavior of a contaminant plume and concentration of contaminants in soil through tile relations between the concentrations of contaminants in groundwater and in soil on the shallow sandy aquifer contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons. The current state of the plume and its fate in the study area was simulated by using the MODFLOW-RT3D model and geochemical parameters of grounwater had been monitored and measured during 3 years (1999~2001). The relations between the concentrations of contaminants in each medium were taken from the investigation of site characterization conducted in 1999. Simulation results showed the center of the plume would migrate 407m twenty years later. At that time, the concentration would be decreased down to about 26 mg/$\ell$(93%). In comparison TEX concentration in the groundwater with that in the soil, the value of correlation coefficient (r=0.876) was as high as it could be used. Based on the high r-value, the linear equation was obtained from regression analysis. The results of model simulation by RT3D engine showed that the highest TEX concentration in the groundwater would be 58.8 mg/$\ell$ 16 years later, and then the TEX concentration in soil would be below the alarming level (80 mg/kg) of regulation criteria.

토양증기추출(Soil Vapor Extraction)법을 이용하여 대표적 휘발성 NAPL (Non-aqueous phase liquid)인 TCE (trichloroethylene)와 toluene을 토양으로부터 제거하는 칼럼 실험을 실시하였다. 토양특성 및 증기추출 조건들이 정화효율에 미치는 영향을 규명하는데, 균질한 Ottawa sand와 실제 오염지역의 토양들을 직경 2.5cm, 길이 30cm인 유리 칼럼이 충진시켰으며, 빨갛게 염색된 TCE 또는 toluene 4 g이 주입되었다 공기 유량계를 설치하여 0.03L/min의 일정한 속도로 공기가 주입되도록 하고, 퍼지장치를 설치하여 주입 공기의 습윤도를 99% 이상으로 유지하였다. 가스크로마토그래피로 유출 가스 농도를 분석하였다. Ottawa sand로 충진된 칼럼실험에서는 매질의 입자크기, 함수율, 토양 내 오염물 체류시간 등을 변화시켜 실험을 반복하였다. TCE로 오염된 세립질 Ottawa sand 칼럼실험에서 유출 공기의 최대 농도는 조립질 Ottawa sand 칼럼의 유출 농도보다 약 20% 정도 감소하였고, 오염지역의 실제토양 칼럼실험에서는 최대유출농도가 조립질 Ottawa sand 칼럼의 농도보다 약 50% 감소하였으나, 20 liter공기 주입 후부터는 모두 비슷한 농도감소 현상을 나타내었으며, 초기 주입량의 90 % 이상이 제거되었다. 함수율증가에 따른 유출공기의 농도 감소는 거의 나타나지 않았으며, TCE 주입 후 7일 동안 방치하였다가 SVE를 실시한 칼럼 실험에서도 잔류하는 TCE의 양이 약간 증가하였지만 20 liter 공기 추출 후에는 초기 주입량의 90% 가, 40 liter공기 추출 후에는 98% 이상이 제거되었다. Toluene으로 오염된 칼럼 실험에서도 TCE와 비슷한 제거 경향을 나타냈으며 200 liter 공기 추출 후에는 오염물 초기 주입량의 98% 이상이 제거되었다. 본 실험 결과로부터 증기추출법을 이용한 TCE, toluene 정화 효율성이 규명되었으며, 휘발성 NAPL로 오염된 실제 토양을 복원하기 위한 SVE법의 적용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Nitrogen pollution in urban and rural groundwater is a common problem and poses a major threat to drinking water supplies based on groundwater. In this work, the kinetics of nitrification-denitrification coupled reactions are modeled and new reaction modules for the RT3D code (Clement, 1997) describing the fate and transport nitrogen species, dissolved oxygen, dissolved organic carbon, and biomass are developed. The proposed nitrogen transformations and transport model showed very good match with results of a conceptual model. However, the model simulation results for the major reactive species should be tested for validation using experimental and field data.

Many methods have been developed for the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater. Among those technologies, in-situ bioremediation is most likely to be cost-effective method for petroleum hydrocarbon contamination. But the in-situ bioremediation can require more time to remediate hydrocarbon-contaminated soil and groundwater than other methods. Therefore we intended to save time of in-situ bioremediation using a biological additive to activate indigenous microbes in soil. The additive, 'Inipol EAP 22' stimulates the growth of specific flora, significantly accelerating the speed at which hydrocarbons are biodegraded. And it hans been tested in accordance with protocol approved by the USEPA and is registered on the National Contingency Plan Product Schedule List. In the experiment, three soil samples contaminated with fuel oil were prepared in the same concentration. Inipol EAP 22 was not added to one sample and was added to the other two samples with 5% and 10% of hydrocarbon by weight respectively. And $CO_2$gas derived from bacterial respiration was analyzed in each samples for 15 days. As a result, 145% and 153% of $CO_2$ evolution (microbial respiration) against the sample without 'Inipol EAP 22' occurred in samples with 'Inipol EAP 22' addition of 5% and 10%, respectively

미생물 생산은 다양한 산업에 이용되는 핵심산업이다. 그러나 미생물을 장기간 보존하거나 생산 후 현장처리에 상황에 있어 미생물의 활성이 환경 및 각종조건에 따라 장기간 유지되지 못하는 경향이 있다. 따라서, 본 실험에서는 Pseudomonas putida SSEoX의 생산 후 시중에서 판매되는 perlite, diatomite, bentonite, zeolite, dolomite, vermicullite 등의 담체를 이용하여 미생물의 생리활성유지를 위한 실험을 자연현상에서 나타날 수 있는 다양한 온도에서 담체의 종류별로 수행하였다. 그 결과 bentonite를 이용한 담체의 경우 5, 20, 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 40일간 미생물의 밀도가 거의 감소하지 않은 결과로 나타났고 zeolite의 경우 20일 이내의 저온에서 생존율이 높은 것으로 나타났으나 온도의 상승으로 생존율이 현저히 떨어졌다. 또한 Dololite의 경우 초기 20일 내에서는 20t에서 생존율이 매우 높았으나 40일 후 생존율이 현저히 감소하였다. 또한 bentonite의 경우 전체적으로 생존율이 거의 감소되지 않았으며 그중 5$^{\circ}C$와 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 생존율이 가장 높았고 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 30일 후까지는 비교적 적은 감소를 보였으며 40일 이후 비교적 큰 감소율이 있었다. 따라서, 본 실험결과 비교적 낮은 온도에서 bentonite와 vermiculite를 혼합한 담체를 이용한 미생물보존이 가장 우수만 생존유지법이었다.

Main radionuclides of the soil waste stored in Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute are Co-60 and Cs-137. Moisture content of soil is 12%, pH of soil is 5.8, and content of organic matter is 2.2 %. Radioactive concentrations of the soil particle size of which is less than 0.063mm and soil in the drum surface of which is more than radiation dose rate 0.05mR/hr are higher. Meanwhile, radioactive concentration of soil in the drum surface of which is less than radiation dose rate 0.02 mR/hr are mostly lower. On using the mixing solution of ammonium sulfate and citric acid, 62% Co was removed from soil and 41% Cs was removed. Also, on using the mixing solution of ammonium nitrate and citric acid, 61% Co was removed from soil and 39% Cs was removed, and on using the mixing solution of ammonium potassium oxalate, 36% Co was removed and only 3% Cs was removed. And on using only water, removal efficiency is less than 5%.

To demonstrate prevention of the leachate leakage out of the landfill with creating inward hydraulic gradient, a tracer test and continuous waterlevel monitoring at the Inside and outside of the barrier wall of a costal landfill were peformed. When the tracers were injected into the well outside of the vertical wall system with high water level, then they were detected at the well inside of the system with low water level. Furthermore the lowered water level at the inside of the landfill than that at the outside prevented leachate leakage out of the landfill. This study reports results of the tracer test and waterlevel monitoring.

서울 지하철 A설계구간에서의 전체 21개 지하수 시료에 대하여 수질분석을 실시하였다. 배경수질은 주로 Ca-HCO$_3$ type으로 전 지역에서의 물-암석 반응 자체는 큰 차이가 없음을 보인다. 본 조사에서 실시한 분석요소 중, 먹는 물 기준치를 초과하지 않은 시료는 3개이며, 나머지 18개 시료는 중금속과 불소, 황산염 등에 의해 이미 오염되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 지하수 오염도는 BH-l~5 지역에서 보이는 카드뮴에 의한 오염현상과 BH-6~23 지역에서 보이는 다른 중금속 이온들에 의한 오염으로 뚜렷한 지역적인 차이가 보이는데, 이는 자연적인 지하매질과 지하수의 물-암석 반응에 의한 것이기보다는, 이들 지역에 매립된 인위적인 오염물질의 차이에 의해 결정되는 것으로 추정된다.

대전 북부 화강암지역 내 심도 500m까지 굴착한 시추공에 다중패커 시스템(Multi-packer system)을 이용하여 구간별로 지하수 시료채취를 수행하고, 시추공 지하수에 대한 지화학 특성 연구를 수행하였다. 다중패커 시스템에 의해 구간별로 격리된 시추공 지하수의 수리화학자료는 구간별로 특징적인 화학조성을 나타낸다 다중패커 시스탬이 설치된 직후 채취한 지하수 시료와 일정시간이 경과한 후 채취한 시료간에는 시기별로 화학특성의 차이를 보이는데 이는 시추당시 사용된 시추수의 영향 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 또한 심도 115m를 기준으로 상부구간과 하부구간에 지화학 특성에서 큰 차이를 보이고 있는데 이는 시추공 굴착당시 단열대의 붕괴로 인해 시공된 그라우팅의 영향 때문이다. 이상치를 보이는 115m 구간을 제외하고, 시추공 지하수의 지화학 자료는 구간별로 명확히 구별되어 화강암 지역에서 지하수의 유동은 단열분포특성에 영향을 받음이 확인되었다.

다양한 산업활동에 의하여 발생하는 6가 크롬 (Cr(Ⅵ))은 대표적인 토양 및 지하수 오염물질이다. Cr(Ⅵ)은 3가크롬(Cr(III))로의 환원에 의한 침전반응으로 이동성이 저하된다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 고형화/안정화 공정에 환원.분해 반응을 추가한 2가철 기반 분해성 고형화/안정화(Degradative Solidification/Stabilization)공정에 의한 Cr(Ⅵ) 처리 특성을 고찰하였다. 회분식 실험결과 cemen/Fe(II) system내에 Cr(Ⅵ)은 환원반응 뿐만 아니라 cement에 의한 침전에 의해서도 제거됨이 밝혀졌다. Cr(Ⅵ)의 제거속도는 Fe(II)의 반응당량에 비례하는 것으로 보여진 반면, cement/solution ratio에 따른 Cr(Ⅵ) 제거동역학의 차이는 그다지 크지 않았다

This study is objected to assess the recharges of phreatic aquifers in the south Korea. The water level data of the national ground-water monitoring network were analysed by PCA(Principal Component Analysis), and classified to 8 types. The recharge were estimated by ‘water-level change method’ on basis of the classified types and compared with the previous methods(hydrograph separation methods) on basis of 4 river basins. The recharge were various type by type and site by site. But the recharge estimated by this study were consistent with that of the other studies.

Brackish water desalination using reverse osmosis(RO) membrane is more useful and economic than sea water to solve the shortage of fresh water supply because of its low total dissolved solid(TDS) contents. Silica and humic acid in brackish water make serious fouling problems and cause the decline of permeate flux and increase of operating pressure. In this study, the experiments for removal of silica and humic acid were conducted with calcite particles to prevent membrane fouling and investigated the effect of pH of feed water Adsorption of silica to calcite was higher at pH=7.5 than 9.5 and removal rate was increased according to increase of initial concentration of silica. The effect of pH on adsorption of humic acid was not significant but at low initial concentration the adsorption of humic acid was enhanced at pH 7.5. The result of this study expect to apply to brackish water desalination experiment of flat-sheet reverse osmosis membrane.

Black shale that has relatively high organic carbon content was tested to determine its sorption phenomena and capacity for TCE. Conventional batch sorption tests were peformed at room temperature. The parameters that were thought to affect the TCE sorption were solution pH and dissolved organic matter. The effect of solution pH on TCE sorption was minimal, but the dissolved organic matter increased the amount of TCE sorbed on black shale. Thus, using black shale as sorbent for TCE in groundwater could save material costs by replacing high cost conventional activated organic carbon.

Remediation of groundwater using zero valent iron filings has received considerable attention in recent years. However, zero valent iron is gradually transformed to iron(III) oxides at permeable reactive barriers, so the reduction of iron(III) oxides can enhance the longevity of the reactive barriers. In this study, microbial reduction of Fe(III) was performed in anaerobic condition. A medium contained nutrients similar to soil solution. The medium was autoclaved and deoxygenated by purging with 99.99% $N_2$ and pH was buffered to 6, while the temperature was regulated as 2$0^{\circ}C$. Activity of iron reducing bacteria were not affected by chlorinated organics but affected by iron(III) oxide. Although perchloroethylene(PCE) was not degraded with only ferric oxide, PCE was reduced to around 50% with ferric oxide and microorganism. It shows that reduced iron can dechlorinate PCE.

The purposes of this research are to identify the source and to analyze the pathway of nitrate contamination in "cultural village", Jeungpyeong. In order to examine recharge processes and flow pattern that closely related to the influent of nitrate contaminant, the flow field was simulated and the oxygen and hydrogen stable isotopes were analyzed. The nitrogen isotope was used to delineate contaminant sources. The shallow groundwater was mainly composed of precipitation, but leakage of domestic water and sewage contributed to the recharge. Nitrate contaminants were possibly from the leakage of sewage and animal waste. The nitrate concentration decreased due to dilution by low concentration water.ion water.

남해 서부 연안 지역 지하수의 해수 침투 영향을 광역적으로 파악하기 위하여, 186개소의 지하수 시료를 random하게 채취하고 수리지구화학 연구를 수행하였다. 전체 시료 중 23.6%에서 500$\mu\textrm{m}$/cm을 초과하는 높은 EC값을 나타내어 상당한 정도의 해수 영향을 반영해 주었다 또한, 해수 영향 판단의 또 다른 파라메터로 사용되는 Cl/HCO$_3$ 몰비 역시 전체 시료의 23%에서 1.3 이상의 값을 나타내었다. 한편, 대표적으로 해수침투 영향 및 인위적 오염의 영향을 각각 반영하는 것으로 알려진 Cl과 NO$_3$의 농도에 관한 누적도수분포도(cumulative frequency curve)를 작성하여 배경수질군과 오염영향군을 구분 짓는 배경치(background concentration)를 구한 결과, 각각 Cl : 22.4 mg/1 및 NO$_3$= 23.4 mg/1로 나타났다. 이 두 파라메터의 농도 분포를 활용하여 샘플링된 지하수 시료를 크게 4개의 그룹으로 나눌 수 있었다. 그 결과, 자연적 또는 인위적 기원이 오염이 배제된 그룹 1은 전체 시료의 32%, 자연적 오염(해수 영향)을 반영하는 그룹 2는 전체의 15%, 인위적 오염의 영향을 반영하는 그룹 3은 전체의 7%, 해수 영향 및 인위적 오염을 동시에 반영하는 그룹 4는 전체의 46%로 나타났다 그룹 4 중 Piper diagram 상에서 Na-Cl 유형으로 점시되어 해수 영향을 강하게 반영하는 일부 시료와 그룹 2의 시료를 합쳐 보면, 전체 지하수 시료의 약 23%에서 해수의 영향을 반영하고 있다. 따라서, 여러 지구화학 방법에 의한 해수 영향 판단 결과는 서로 잘 일치하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 결국, 지구화학적 파라메터를 종합적으로 활용함으로써, 연안 지역 해수침투의 효과적인 파악은 물론 예측 및 방지, 복구에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

2001년 12월과 2002년 1월에 걸쳐 조간대 환경에 위치하는 어느 해양사격장 중위에서 일정한 간격으로 표층(<5 cm) 해양퇴적물(총22개소)과 해양생물체(굴; 총10개소)를 샘플링하고, Pb, Cu, Cd, Zn를 위시한 중금속원소의 공간적 농도 분포와 생흡수도(bioavailability)를 분석 고찰하였다. 본 논문에서는 예비 연구 결과를 간단히 소개한다. 해양퇴적물에 대한 전함량 분석, 0.1N HCl에 의한 부분 분석 및 BCR법에 의한 연속추출 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. Pb, Cu, Cd, Zn을 위시한 중금속은 대체적으로 점오염원인 사격장으로 갈수록 전함량 및 부분함량이 높아지는 경향을 보여주었다. 사격장 주변에서 가장 중요한 오염물질로 알려져 있는 Pb는 오염원 주변에서만 높은 함량을 보여주어, 해양 환경 하에서 이동도( 및 생흡수도)가 비교적 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 반면, Cu, Cd, Zn의 경우에는 보다 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 퇴적물 내의 부화(enrichment)가 인지되어 연구지역의 갯벌 환경에 의미있는 정도로 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 곳의 생물체(굴) 역시 Pb에 대해서는 낮은 흡수도(-값의 생농축계수)를 나타낸 반면, Cu, Cd, Zn에 대해서는 의미있는 생흡수도를 나타내었다. BCR 연속추출법에 의한 퇴적물 중금속의 존재형태 해석 결과를 보면, fraction 1(F1; exchangeable+acidic phase) 및 fraction 2(F2; reducible phase)의 기여도가 지배적이고, 또한 오염원으로 갈수록 그 기여도는 점차 증가됨을 나타내었다. 특이하게도 유기물과의 친화력이 높은 것으로 알려진 Cu 역시 F1과 F2에 대하여 높은 함량을 나타내어 오염원으로부터의 Cu의 확산을 지시하였다. 외국에 비하여, 그동안 국내에서는 사격장 주변의 자연환경변화에 관하여 연구된 결과가 거의 전무하였다. 본 연구 결과는, 이와 유사한 사격장 주변 환경에서의 중금속 분포와 거동 특성에 대하여 종합적인 모니터링(즉, 체계적인 환경지구화학적 조사ㆍ연구)이 시급함을 시사해 주고 있다.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the reasons of pipe corrosion and well clogging which are taken place in long term bank filtering and to establish countermeasure of them in the alluvium of Goryeong Gun, Dasan Myeon, Nakdong River It is believed that the scale inside the pipe is not caused by only iron hydroxides but compounds consisted with some carbonate and silicate minerals. For the removal of the scales, it is desirable to loosen the bonds of the scale itself by dissolving the carbonate and silicate minerals after detailed study of the scale compounds.

금정터널 굴착 공사의 실시 설계를 위하여 굴착시 발생하게될 터널내로의 지하수 유출과 관련된 수리지질학적 특성을 연구하였다. 단열들에 대한 정보를 얻기 위하여 지표지질조사 및 지질구조조사를 실시하였다. 연구지역의 투수성을 파악하기 위하여 토양의 물리적, 공학적 특성을 규명하였고, 또한 정압주입시험을 실시하였다. 선구조선의 우세방향은 북북동-남남서 방향으로 동래단층 및 동래단층과 관련된 단층군들이 포함된다. 토양시료의 시험결과, 산정된 수리전도도는 2.l9E-05 m/sec ~ 2.11E-04 m/sec 로서 투수성이 빠름 ~ 매우 빠른 범위 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 주입시험에 의해 산정된 수리전도도는 2.28E-10 m/sec ~ 1.49E-06 m/sec 로서 최대값과 최소값은 4 차수(four order)의 차이를 보였다.

Heavy metal concentrations of roadside soils around interchanges were found to decrease as Zn)Cu>Pb and be lower than the legal guideline levels. The concentrations of Cu, Pb and Zn in roadside soils around Kyeong-bu highway interchanges were 1.3 to 1.5 times higher those around Yeong-dong highway interchanges. Difference of heavy metal concentrations in soils seems to be caused by difference of traffic volume between Kyeong-bu and Yeong-dong highway interchanges. This means that contamination of interchange roadside soils mainly depends on traffic volume.

In this study, to increase removal efficiency of traditional electrokinetic treatment and to reduce contaminant load of wastewater that discharged through cathode compartment, enhanced electrode compartments were investigated. Hydroxide precipitation near the cathode electrode that encounter during traditional electrokinetic treatment were prevented by enhanced electrokinetic remediation test with newly invented electrode compartment. And heavy metal concentration in wastewater showed 0 ppm thus, additive post-treatment cost were not needed.

In this study, mine tailing buffer zone in cathode was used to overcome precipitation of heavy metals that reducing remediation efficiency during electrokinetic remediation. Test results showed that heavy metal transportation affected by initial soil pH which was verified through traditional test and enhanced test with two type of soils. With mine tailing enhanced method 39% of extraction rate was achieved in surface soil and significant transportation trend was observed in deep soil.

유류로 오염된 부지에 토양세정기법을 적용하기 위한 전 단계로, 실험실 규모의 컬럼실험을 통하여 pilot 규모 현장 적용을 위한 설계인자 및 최적 운전조건을 규명하고자 적정 세척제 종류와 농도, 배합비 및 세정용액 주입유량을 고찰하였다. 회분식실험 결과 POE$_{14}$와 SDS(1:1)를 1%로 적용한 흔합계면활성제의 효율이 가장 우수하였으나, 예비실험 결과 음이온계 계면활성제인 SDS는 미생물에 독성을 끼치는 경향이 있는 것으로 나타나 같은 농도에서 효율이 거의 유사한 POE$_{5}$와 POE$_{14}$ 혼합계면활성제를 이용하여 실험하였다. 선정된 혼합계면활성제를 적용하여 디젤 오염토양 세척능력을 검토한 결과 세척제 농도 1%까지는 효율이 증가하다가 1% 이상의 농도에서는 다시 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 계면활성제 배합비는 1:1로 혼합하였을 경우 세척효율이 가장 우수하였다. 따라서 POE$_{5}$와 POE$_{14}$ (1:1) 1% 혼합계면활성제를 세척제로 선정하였다. 컬럼실험 결과, 주입 flux가 클수록 세정 제거된 총 유류의 양이 증가하였으며, 같은 pore volume의 세정용액 통과 시에는 flux가 작을수록 제거효율이 좋았다.

계면활성제를 이용한 유류 오염토양 복원기술 적용시 발생되는 세척 유출수를 유류분해 미생물로 알려진 Pseudomonas putida Fl, Pseudomonas oleovorans, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus를 이용하여 생물학적으로 처리하는데 필요한 기초 연구를 실시하였다 세종류의 미생물은 본 연구에 사용된 계면활성제(POE$_{5}$, POE$_{14}$)에 대하여 독성이 없는 것으로 판명되었으며, 배양 종료 후 계면활성제 농도에 따른 TPH 분해율은 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%의 계면활성제 농도에서 유사한 분해율을 나타냈으나, 배양 초기에는 0.1%가 0.5%나 1% 농도에 비하여 높은 분해율을 보였다 pH의 변화에 따른 TPH 분해율은 적용 pH 범위(4, 6.5, 9)내에서 모두 생육이 가능하였으며, 세 종류의 미생물은 pH 6.5에서 가장 높은 TPH 분해 율을 나타내었다.

The Environmental Site Assessment System(ESAS) in Korea which became effective as of 2002 is very similar to the ASTM standard practice in United States. Unlike the United States, however, we do not have Phase I ESA, enough environmental professionals with approved training and practical experiences, and detailed guidelines for a governmental action. As a result of comparison the ESAS with the ASTM standard practice, the ASTM standard practice is focused on the Innocent Landowner Defense and has a difference in data search process as well as legal and methodological ways from the ESAS. Therefore, the Transaction Screen Process in ASTM E-1528 standard practice is suggested to reduce the risk potentially produced under on-site assessment and to achieve efficient on-site assessment. In addition, social and executive supports are discussed to more activate on-site assessment. In near future this study is expected to be standardized more in detail with activation of on-site assessment and it is also expected to increase the role and responsibility of environmental professionals considerably.

낙동강 하구 제4기 홀로세 퇴적층에 대한 연구의 하나로 김해평야에 분포하는 점토퇴적층 (부산점토)을 대상으로 지구물리탐사를 실시하였다. 연구는 제한적인 몇 개의 지역에 대해 예비연구로 시행되었다. 그 결과 수직탐사에 의한 누적 전기비저항이 지층의 특성을 가장 잘 반영해 주었다. 점토층은 2.0~3.0$\Omega$ㆍm 이하의 전기비저항을 가지며 낙동강에 인접할수록 비저항의 크기는 다소 증가하였다. 이러한 방법은 상대적인 지층의 대비에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있을 것이며 객관성을 가지기 위해서는 지속적인 연구가 요구된다.

침하지반의 지하구조 해석을 위한 방법으로 전기비저항, 지하투과레이더, 굴절법 탄성파탐사를 실시하였다. 침하가 발생한 지점을 중심으로 조사를 실시하여 보강을 위한 경계를 설정하였으며 그라우팅 보강공사가 이후에 재차 시행되었다. 지반의 침하는 원지반 상부 연약지반에서 발생하였으며 침하량은 최대 50cm 정도이다. 침하의 원인은 해수 유입에 따근 지지력의 감소가 주된 원인으로 추정되며 보강공사 후 상부 연약지반의 전기비저항은 원지반과 거의 같은 크기를 보여준다.

변위가 발생한 해안도로 옹벽에 대한 원인을 규명하기 위하여 기반암과 매립부 지반에 대한 조사를 실시하였다. 연구지역에서 지질구조선의 발달은 관찰되지 않고 지표에서 기반암의 거동은 낙석의 형태로 나타난다. 기반암은 생교란작용의 유무에 따라 상, 하부지층이 구분되며 하부 지층은 신선한 상태로 이완된 불연속면은 나타나지 않는다. 변위는 옹벽의 이음부에 집중되며 옹벽의 운동방향은 우향이동과 좌향이동이 반복되며 최초 변위 발생지점 (시 점부)에서 멀어짐에 따라 장력에 의한 확장 (벌어짐)이 우세하며 종점부에서 회전운동이 수반된다. 이음부의 확장과 회전은 최초 발생 지점에서 응력이 전달되는 과정에서 나타난 것으로 해석된다. 매립부 지반의 전기비저항탐사에서 상부의 매립층은 높은 전기비저항을 가지는 것에 반해 하부는 매우 낮은 전기비저항 값을 보여준다. 이는 매립부의 하부지반이 해수면 이하에 위치하여 해수와 같은 유체의 영향을 받으나, 상부는 유체의 영향을 거의 받지 않는 것으로 추정된다. 반면 최초 변위가 발생한 지점의 매립부 지반은 하부와 같이 낮은 전기비저항 값을 보여준다. GPR 탐사에서 최초 변위 발생 지점에서 매질의 이완 내지 공동으로 추정되는 구조가 관찰된다.

최근 물부족 현상은 심각한 사회ㆍ환경적 문제가 되고 있으며, 이에 대처하기 위한 방안의 하나로 지표수-지하수 연계이용이 대두되고 있다. 지표수와 지하수 연계이용은 수자원을 수문학적 순환 사이클의 관점에서 파악하고 상호보완적 이용을 도모하는 통합적인 방안이다 본 연구는 계획 수립단계에서 연계이용의 가능성, 시급성 측면에서 최적의 대상지역을 선정하기 위한 체계적인 적지분석 방법론을 제시한다. 이를 위해 복잡한 의사결정 문제를 계층적으로 나누어 분석하는 기법(AHP)이 적용되었다. AHP를 통해 분석에 필요한 의사결정인자를 도출하였고, 그 상대적 중요도를 정량화 하였다. 입지인자의 중요도를 바탕으로 가상의 지역에 대한 각 측면의 적합도를 산정하였고, 비중을 달리함으로써 얻어지는 다양한 대안에 대하여 최종적인 적합도가 산정되었다. 이러한 방법론에 의거한 분석자료는 최종적인 의사결정을 위한 기초정보를 제공할 것이며, 지역 간 연계이용 우선순위를 평가하는데도 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

국내에서 자생하는 포플러중 현사시, 양황철, 이태리포플러를 대상으로 제초제인 atrazine의 제거특성을 조사하였다 Atrazine이 포플러에 미치는 독성을 평가하고, 식물체에 의한 atrazine 제거효율 및 제거속도를 조사하였다. 또한 식물체의 체내로의 흡수에 의해 atrazine이 제거되므로 식물체로 흡수된 후의 생물학적 변환 과정에 대해서도 조사하였다. 현사시, 양황철, 이태리포플러 모두 실험이 진행된 전범위의 농도에서 황백화현상, 낙엽증가, 생체량 감소와 같은 식물독성을 나타냈으며, 현사시인 경우 양황청 및 이태리 포플러에 비해 상대적으로 민감한 반응을 나타내었다. Atrazine 독성여부 평가의 하나로 초기 atrazine 농도가 증가할수록 현사시, 양황철, 이태리포플러의 증산량은 상대적으로 감소함을 관찰하였다. 포플러에 의한 atrazine 생물학적 변환실험에서는 atrazine이 중간생성물질인 HA, DEA, I)IA를 거쳐 ammeline을 포함한 HDAP로 전환되는 것을 확인하였다. 이 결과의 중요성은 atrazine 부산물은 상대적으로 독성이 적고, 미생물에 의해 어렵지 않게 완전 무기화할 수 있기 때문이다. 즉, 식물체내에서도 HBAP 이후 과정을 통한 분해가 이루어질 수 있는 가능성이 있다고 추측할 수 있다.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of air flow rate and aeration mode on the treatment of bioventing for diesel-contaminated soil. Initial concentrations of diesel-contaminated soils were about 2,500 and 9,000mg/kg. Air flow rates were 30, 60, and 100mL/min, and air was injected in the continuous and the intermittent modes. TPH removal efficiency of intermittent aeration mode was higher than that of continuous aeration mode. Greater air flow rate than the value of guidance book was needed for bioventing.

The bacterial transport in soil media was studied. Nonionic surfactants, enhanced the bacterial transports in soil media. The transport rate in soil column was increased by increasing the number of ethylene oxide in polyoxyethylene oxide surfactants. Ionic strength of solution affected the microbial transport characteristics in soil. The hydrophobicity of cell surface was proved that one of important characteristics on the bacterial transport in soil media.

Oxygen uptake characteristics of soil microcosm added by hydrocarbon degrading bacteria screened from polluted site in Korea was studied. The degradation of TPH was enhanced by additon of nononionic surfactants. The amount of oxygen consumed was decreased at higher concentration. The degradation rate of hydrocarbon was decreased by increasing the hydrcarbon concentration.

Immobilization isotherms for methyl tort-buty1 ether (MTBE) in sodium dodecy1 sulfate(SDS) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) were investigated for application to micellar enhanced remediation. Headspace solid-phase microextraction was used to analyze immobilization isotherms. Maximum partitioning coefficients of MTBE were 48 L/mol and 9 L/mol for SDS and CPC, respectively, The values decreased gradually as the MTBE mole fraction in the micelles increased.

The drinking water industry faces a growing number of difficultiesin the treatment of groundwater for drinking water production. Groundwater sources are frequently contaminated with nitrates and phosphates due to usage of chemical fertilizer In this study, feasibility of micellar enhanced ultrafiltation (MEUF) was investigated to remediate groundwater contaminated with nitrate and phosphate. Ultrafiltration membrane was cellulose acetate with molecular weight cut off (MWCO) 10,000 and celtyl pyridinium chloride (CPC) was used to form pollutant-micelle complex with nitrate and phosphate. The results show that nitrate and phosphate rejections are satisfactory. The removal efficiency of nitrate and phosphate show 80% and 84% in single pollutant system, respectively with 3 molar ratio of CPC to pollutants. In the multi-pollutant systems, the removalefficiency increased to 90 % and 89 % for nitrate and phosphate, respectively, The presence of nitrate in the solutions did not affect the removal of phosphate and that of phosphate did not affect the removal of nitrate. The concentration of CPC in the permeate and removal efficiency of CPC was a function of the concentration of CPC in the feed solutions.

불포화 층상 해안 대수층 내에서의 밀도 의존적 지하수 유동 및 염분 이동에 대한 연구를 위해 하나의 지하수 유동-용질 이동 연동 수치 모델이 제시되었다. 이 수치 모델은 밀도 의존적 지하수 유동 지배 방정식, 염분 이동 지배 방정식 및 농도와 밀도의 관계식, 그리고 유한 요소법에 기초하여 개발되었다. 서로 다른 두가지 성질의 불포화 대수층이 고려되었다. 하나는 사질토층 위에 점토층이 존재하는 층상 대수층이고, 다른 하나는 사질토층과 점토층이 혼합된 두가지 물질로 구성된 균질화된 대수층이다. 수치모델의 결과는 층상 불균질성 (layered heterogeneity)가 해안 대수층 내에서의 밀도의존적 지하수 유동과 염분 이동에 있어서 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 보여준다. 그러한 층상 불균질성의 효과는 사질토층과 점토층과의 현저한 수리학적 및 수리역학적 성질의 차이에 기인한다 따라서 실제 해안 대수층 내에서 관찰되는 점토층을 적절히 고려하는 것이 보다 합리적고 타당한 해안 대수층내에서의 밀도 의존적 지하수 유동 및 염분 이동 해석을 가능하게 할 것이다.

Arsenic speciation changes between As(V) and As(III) are subject to changes in accordance with redox conditions in the environment. It is common to find contaminated sites associated with mixed wastes including both organic pollutants and heavy metals. We conducted microcosm experiment under hypothesis that the co-disposed organic pollutants would influence on the arsenic forms and concentrations, via degradation of the organic pollutants and the consequent impact on the redox conditions in soil. Artificially contaminated soil samples were run for 40 days with control samples without artificial contamination. We noticed arsenic in the contaminated soil showed different behaviour compared with the arsenic in the control soil. The findings indicate degradation of organic pollutants in the contaminated soil influenced on the arsenic speciation and concentrations. A further work is needed to understand the process quantitatively. However, we could confirm that degradation of organic pollutants can influence on the abiotic processes associated with geochemical reactions in contaminated soil. Degradation of organic pollutants can increase the mobility and toxicity of arsenic in soil and sediment by changing redox conditions in the geological media and subsequently from As(V) to As(III).

Groundwater recharge rate was estimated by applying the groundwater level fluctuation method utilizing Theis (1937) approach with specific yield estimation technique of Shevenell (1996) and the temperature method using observed data from National Groundwater Observation Stations. Results based on analysis of water level observation data of 10 alluvium wells reveal that the recharge rates for 5 wells of Kum river area range 3.7~25.0% and those for 5 wells of Nakdong river area range 3.6~21.7%. Results obtained from the temperature method based on water temperature data indicated that the upward flow resulted from evapotranspiration is dominant for 4 wells of the Kum river area and 5 wells of the Nakdong river area. The other wells showed the downward flow which is related to groundwater recharge in these areas.
