비오염 전원지역 (remote rural)과 해안지역 (marine)은 도심과는 달리 직접적인 인위적 휘발성 유기 화합물의 배출원이 없거나 적은 곳이다. 이러한 특성은 장거리 이동되는 오염원의 발생지를 추적하거나 이동 특성을 연구하는데 도움이 된다. 또한 오염지역에서의 농도 수준을 결정하거나 농도 특성을 연구하는데 있어서 비오염 지역의 배경농도는 중요한 의미를 갖는다.(중략)

최근 들어 서울을 중심으로 한 수도권 지역에서는 여름철 오존주의보 발령이 빈번해지면서 광화학 반응에 의한 대기중 오존농도 상승에 많은 관심을 보이고 있다. 휘발성 유기물질 (Volatile Organic Compounds)은 광화학 반응을 통해 오존을 생성시키는 대표적인 대기오염 물질로 알려져 있으며 주로 자동차, 석유정제, 석유화학, 도장산업 등에서 배출되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이렇나 VOC는 $NO_x$와 함께 대기중 오존농도 저감을 위한 대상물질로써 NOx 배출량 규제와 동시에 VOC 농도 및 특성 또한 면밀히 검토되어야 한다.(중략)

Soil Precise Investigation(SPI) for river deposits and farmland soils around Goro abandoned Zn-mine, Korea was performed to assess the pollution level of heavy metals(As. Pb, Cd, Cu) and to estimate the remediation volume for contaminated soils. Total investigation area was about 950000 $m^2$, which was divided into each section of 1500 $m^2$ corresponding to one sampling site and 545 samples for surface soil(0-10cm in depth) and 192 samples for deep soil(10-30cm in depth) from the investigation area were collected for analysis. Concentrations of Cu, Cd, Pb at all sample sites were shown to be lower than Soil Pollution Warning Limit(SPWL). For arsenic concentration, in surface soils, 20.5% of sample sites(104 sites) were over SPWL(6mg/kg) and 6.7%(34 sites) were over Soil Pollution Counterplan Limit(SPCL: 15mg/kg) suggesting that surface soils were broadly contaminated by As. For deep soils, 10.4% of sample sites(18 sites) were over SPWL and 0.6%(1 site) were over SPCL. Four pollution grades for sample locations were prescribed by the Law of Soil Environmental Preservation and Pollution Index(PI) for each soil sample was decided according to pollution grades(over 15.0 mg/kg, 6.00-15.00 mg/kg, 2.40-6.00 mg/kg, 1.23-6.00 mg/kg). The pollution contour map around Goro mine based on PI results was finally created to calculate the contaminated area and the remediation volume for contaminated soils. Remediation area with over SPWL concentration was about 0.3% of total area between Goro mine and a projected storage dam and 0.9% of total area was over 40% of SPWL. If the remediation target concentration was determined to over background level concentration, 1.1% of total area should be treated for remediation. Total soil volume to be treated for remediation was estimated on the assumption that the thickness of contaminated soil was 30cm. Soil volume to be remediated based on the excess of SPWL was estimated at 79,200$m^3$, soil volume exceeding 40% of SPWL was about 233,700 $m^3$, and soil volume exceeding the background level(1.23 mg/kg) was 290,760 TEX>$m^3$.

인위적인 오염원이 존재하지 않는 농촌지역 지하수공에서 검출빈도가 매우 낮은 세레늄 성분에 대하여 양수조건에 따른 세레늄의 농도변화를 연구하였다. 양수에 따른 세레늄 농도변화의 연구는 현장지하수 수질이 지하수 먹는물 수질기준보다. 높은 2개의 지하수공에서 수행되었다. 본 연구를 통해, 세레늄 성분이 먹는물 수질기준을 초과한 지하수공의 지속적인 이용여부를 판단하였다. 또한, 양수시험공 주변의 세레늄 농도를 측정하여 배경농도를 파악하였으며, 시험공 내에서 구간별 채수를 수행하여 세레늄 성분이 산출되는 주대수층 구간을 파악하였다. 양수조건에 따른 세레늄의 농도변화를 연구하기 위한 방법은 하루 8시간을 기준으로 양수하는 단기적인 방법과, $4,950m^3$을 594시간 동안 장기양수하면서 농도변화를 측정하였다. 본 연구를 통해, 지하수 내 세레늄 성분의 농도변화는 장기양수에 의해 변화함을 알 수 있었다.

This study was to evaluate the change in characteristics of concentration of ozone after exposure to high energy radiation in linac room. Background ozone concentration of linac room was measured and compared to ozone concentration around linac room. Background ozone concentration of linac room was mean $17.4{\pm}7.9ppb$. It was 50% of the ozone concentration($36.8{\pm}22.3ppb$) around linac room(p<0.05). The concentration of ozone after exposure to high energy radiation in linac room was elevated to double of background ozone level, intensity after exposure. with exposure time concentration of ozone increased proportionally. It showed maximum level at 130~180seconds and slowed a tendency to saturate. It required more than 10 minutes for ozone concentration in linac room to drop to ozone concentration around linac room. The concentration of ozone after exposure to high energy radiation is high enough to cause specific physical symptoms, such as acute dyspnea or chest pain due to dry cough. Exposure to high concentration of ozone in sealed linac room can aggravate pulmonary disease, so special attention is needed.

The concentration levels of n-alkanes and water soluble organic carbon (WSOC) at Anmyon, a Global Atmospheric Watch (GAW) station operated by Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA), has been characterized for the PM10 samples collected in 2010. It was found that the concentrations of WSOC at Anmyon were comparable to those in Seoul and lower than those in Gosan, another background area in Korea. However, the maximum concentration of the WSOC at Anmyon was observed in fall while that at Seoul was in winter. It suggests that the emission and/or transformation characteristics at two areas are different. The concentrations of n-alkanes at Anmyon were slightly lower than at Gosan and about one thirds at Seoul. However, it was found that at Gosan the n-alkanes from natural sources were dominant at Gosan. On the other hand, n-alkanes from anthropogenic sources were dominant at Anmyon. Study directions to further understand the characteristics of aerosols at Anmyon are discussed.
