대기오염물질 제거에 중요한 역할을 하는 침적 현상은 크게 건성침적(dry deposition)과 습성침적(wet deposition)으로 구분된다. 건성침적은 오염물질이 중력이나 분자 확산에 의해 지면이나 그 부근에 침강ㆍ흡착하는 현상이며, 습성침적은 구름 속의 에어로졸이 응결핵으로 제거되는 성우제거(rainout)와 구름 이하의 고도에서 강수에 의해 제거되는 세척제거(washout)와 같은 현상을 일컫는다. 습성침적은 강수 및 구름 물리와 관련하여 대기 중 오염물질 제거에 큰 비중을 차지함에도 불구하고 건성침적에 비해 그 연구가 미흡한 실정이며, 침적 모형을 이용한 연구는 더욱 찾아보기 어렵다.

대기오염물질 배출계수는 국가기환, 연구기관, 학계, 배출사업장, 방지시설 업체 등 수많은 분야에서 실질적으로 활용하고 있는 자료로서 배출원에 대한 배출특성을 직ㆍ간접적으로 파악할 수 있는 대표적 자료이다. 이는 대기오염 방지시설 및 설비의 설계, 오염물질 저감 계획의 수립 등 실질적인 대기 관리정책의 수립과 평가에 필수적으로 이용되고 있다. 그러나, 현재까지의 국내 대기오염 배출원에 대한 배출계수의 개발은 매우 저조한 상태로 미국 및 선진국의 배출계수를 그대로 사용하고 있는 실정이다. (중략)

최근 몇 년간 수도권 지역의 대기오염은 오존, 질소산화물, 미세 먼지 등과 같은 물질을 중심으로 지속적으로 악화되고 있다. 대기오염의 관리를 위해서는 어떤 분야에서 얼마만큼의 오염물질이 배출되고 있는 현황 파악이 필수적이다. 서울, 인천, 경기도는 대기질 규제지역 지정에 따른 실천계획 수립의 일환으로 처음으로 본격적인 배출목록 조사작업을 수행한 바 있다. 이 자료는 국내에서 수행된 최초의 배출목록으로 자료분류체계와 방법 등에 많은 진보가 있었다. (중략)

The quality of stormwater runoff has been a major concern in water quality preservation. Characteristics of heavy metals and conventional pollutants in surface runoff from industrial complex, during the first flush, were not completely understood, Generally, separated sewer system is known for their water quality with untreated wastewater during storm events. In this study, the quality and characteristics of surface runoff from the industrial complex were investigated. The target area in the industrial complex catchment was divided 4 sub-areas, and the quality of stormwater runoff from the selected drainage areas was investigated using a grab sampling method. The petro-chemical industry and the junkyard discharged relatively high concentration of conventional pollutants, such as BOD, COD, SS, and TN through the first flush runoff samples. On the other hand, a higher level of heavy metals was found in the first flush runoff from the metal-mechanical industry and the scrap storage yard. For metals, Fe, Zn and Cu were the most prevalent species found in the first flush runoff from all sites for every surface runoff samples, while Pb, As, Cd, Cr and Ni were the least prevalent species and Hg was not found in any sample at any site. These results suggest that the nature of pollutants in surface runoff from the industrial complex was related to the type of industry, and the concentration of pollutants was determinated by the degree of exposed pollutant sources and the characteristic of rainfall events at the sites.

Daechung Reservoir has been suffering from severe cyanobacterial blooming periodically due to the water pollutants from the watershed, especially nutrients from nonpoint sources. As a countermeasure, an artificial wetland was constructed to mitigate the pollutant load from the watershed by utilizing the vegetation. We investigated the water quality of the influent and outflow of the wetland during years 2014~2020 to evaluate the performance of pollutant removal through the wetland. Major pollutants (e.g. BOD, COD, SS, T-N, and T-P) were largely reduced during the retention in the wetland while nutrients removal was more efficient than that of organic matters. Pollutant removal efficiency for different inflow concentrations was also investigated to estimate the wetland's capability as a way of managing nonpoint sources. The efficiency of water treatment was significantly higher when inflow concentrations were above 75^th percentile for all pollutant, implying the wetland can be applied to the pre-treatment of high pollution load including initial rainfall runoff. Furthermore, the yearly variation of removal efficiency for seven years was analyzed to better understand long-term trends in water treatment of the wetland. The annual treatment efficiency of T-P was very high in the early stages of vegetation growth with high concentration of inflow water. However, it was confirmed that the concentration of inflow water decreased, vegetation stabilized, and the treatment efficiency gradually decreased as the soil was saturated. The findings of the study suggest that artificial wetlands can be an effective method for controlling harmful algal blooms by alleviating pollutant load from the tributaries of Daechung Reservoir.

This paper describes a newly developed pollutant transport model named ARPTM which was designed to simulate the transport and characteristics of pollutant materials after an accidental spill in upstream of river system up to a given position in the downstream. In particular, the ARPTM incorporated ADCP data to compute longitudinal dispersion coefficient and advection velocity which are necessary to apply one-dimensional advection-dispersion equation. ARPTM was built on top of the geographic information system platforms to take advantage of the technology's capabilities to track geo-referenced processes and visualize the simulated results in conjunction with associated geographic layers such as digital maps. The ARPTM computes travel distance, time, and concentration of the pollutant cloud in the given flow path from the river network, after quickly finding path between the spill of the pollutant material and any concerned points in the downstream. ARPTM is closely connected with a recently developed GIS-based Arc River database that stores inputs and outputs of ARPTM. ARPTM thereby assembles measurements, modeling, and cyberinfrastructure components to create a useful cyber-tool for determining and visualizing the dynamics of the clouds of pollutants while dispersing in space and time. ARPTM is expected to be potentially used for building warning system for the transport of pollutant materials in a large basin.

In this study, we try to Quantitatively assess the micropollutants in Gwangyang bay, Gamag bay and Yeoa bay, using simultaneous analytical method fir 310 chemicals. In the results, several dozen organic pollutants were detected in sampling sites, and the major chemicals detected were CH type chemicals, such as aliphatic and polycyclic compounds, and CHN(O) type chemicals, such as aromatic ammines and nitro compounds. The concentration of organic pollutants was higher in summer than in winter. However, there was no association of species of organic pollutants with season. The total concentration of pesticides at each sampling site was measured within the range of $ND{\sim}9.11{\mu}g/L$. Insecticides and fungicides of pesticide type were detected in Gwangyang bay and Gamag bay, while six kinds of endocrine disrupter were detected in southern coastal waters. From the results of this study, we should estimated that the insecticides, the fungicides, and a few of the endocrine disrupters are major pollutant factors in southern coastal waters.

This study measured for comparison and analysis the correlation of River pollution and Soil contamination, based on the results of previous research, and then in order to increase the efficiency of study, heavy metals which cause serious side effects was limited to the case among pollutants. This study focused on the rivers that near the Urban and industrial districts, for example, Nak-Dong river, An-Yang river, Tae-Hwa river and the rivers that near the farm land or pasture, for example, Yeong-San river, Mi-Ho river, then compare and analyze the degree of actual pollution as gathered the results of Previous research. Correlationship about pollutants of river near the Urban, industrial area and drainage basin its river has been proven, and this expected because of the strong influence by point pollution source. On the other hand, I can found the opposite relationship where the river near the farm land or pasture, and this probably because of the influence by nonpoint pollution source.

대부분의 유기물은 토양의 특성에 따라 그 흡착 및 탈착 양상이 다르며 이는 오염물질의 토양에서의 지속성 및 이동성에 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 대표적인 유기오염물인 PAH(Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon)에 대하여 흡착 및 탈착과 오염물질의 미생물 분해 등을 통한 제거 기작과의 연관성을 연구하고자 한다. PAH의 이론적인 미생물분해반응식은 열역학적 이론을 바탕으로 하는 반쪽반응방법을 사용하여 예측할 수 있다. 오염물과 토양의 특성에 따른 흡착 및 탈착 양상을 파악하고, 앞에서 구한 미생물 분해반응식을 이용하여 이론적 분해량을 예측하면 오염물의 생물학적 이용성과 노출량을 결정할 수 있다 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 토양의 여러 특성을 분석한 후, PAH의 미생물 분해량 및 분해율을 측정하고자 한다. 실험을 통하여 실제 토양에서 측정된 PAH 분해량과 위의 이론적 분해량 예측 결과 사이의 관계를 토양의 특성을 이용하여 설명할 수 있으며 나아가 오염물질의 생물학적이용성에 관하여 개략적으로 일반화된 예측 모형을 얻을 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구를 통하여 토양과 유기오염물질, 미생물간의 상호 작용에 대한 이해를 높이고 보다 실질적인 유기오염물의 생물학적 이용성을 예측할 수 있는 방안을 마련할 수 있을 것이다.

오염된 지하수 정화에 있어 반응벽체(Permeable Reactive Barriers, PRBs)를 이용한 정화기법은 최근 가장 큰 관심을 모으고 있는 기술이다. 반응벽체의 적용에 있어 가장 중요한 사항은 오염물질의 특성을 고려하여 적절한 반응성을 가지는 충진물질을 선택하는 일이다. 지금까지 연구된 반응물질 중 제올라이트는 취득이 용이하고 가격이 저렴하여, 암모늄이나 중금속과 같은 양이온성 오염물질의 정화에 그 적용성을 인정받아왔다. 하지만 표면에 음전하를 띠는 제올라이트의 특성 때문에, 지하수내에서 음이온의 형태로 존재하는 Cr(VI) 등에는 반응성이 없는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제올라이트에 영가철을 결합한 ZanF란 물질을 개발하여 양이온성 중금속의 하나인 납과 음이온성 중금속의 하나인 Cr(VI)을 동시 제거하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 ZanF는 초기농도 2-15mmol를 가지는 납 오염용액에 대해 90% 이상의 제거율을 보였으며, 초기농도 0.1 mmol을 가지는 Cr(VI) 오염용액의 농도를 5시간 내에 검출한계 이하로 떨어뜨리는 탁월한 효과를 보였다. 실험결과를 토대로 ZanF는 납과 Cr(VI)으로 동시에 오염된 지하수 정화에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있으리라 기대된다.
