Mallipo is a representative beach contaminated by Hebei Spirit oil spill accident in December 2007. This study aims to compare the differences of two seasons (winter and summer) for the spatio-temporal variation patterns of oiling status in the whole area and divided five regions of Mallipo beach. In the whole area, the decreasing rate of average TPH (total petroleum hydrocarbon) in winter was twice greater than summer during four years. According to the spatial variation pattern analysis of oiling status using weighted mean center and weighted standard distance, the oil concentration was clustered on southwestern region in winter, however, the TPH was dispersed in the whole area in summer. Temporal variation pattern of TPH in each of Mallipo's five regions showed that TPH had been consistently decreased in winter, but oil concentration had not been changed in summer since 2009 except the southwestern region. Therefore, in order to evaluate and predict the progress of oiling status, it is needed to analyze the spatio-temporal variation pattern of TPH using spatial analysis after separating data into seasons (e.g., winter and summer). In addition, time series analysis is useful in the regional scales through spatial partitioning rather than the whole beach area for the understanding of temporal variation pattern.

생활의 편의를 위하여 인간은 여러 종류의 시설을 만들고 있으며, 이에 필요한 전기를 공급하기 위하여 여러 종류의 발전소를 건설 운영하고 있다. 특히, 원자력 발전은 2014년을 기준으로 전체 전력생산량의 약 30%를 담당하고 있으며, 늘어나는 전력 수요를 감당하기 위하여 다수의 원자력 발전소 건설계획을 수립하고 있다. 원자력 발전소는 발전과정에서 생성되는 고열을 냉각시키기 위하여 다량의 물을 필요로 하기 때문에 연안에 위치한다. 물을 안정적으로 취수하는 것은 원자력 발전소의 안정성 확보에 큰 영향을 미치는 요소이다. 하지만, 유류 등의 오염 물질 또는 해파리 등의 생물체에 의하여 취수구가 마비되어 냉각수를 공급하지 못하는 사고가 종종 발생하고 있다. 원자력 발전소가 발전 중단이 되면 하루 약 10억원의 경제적 손실이 발생할 수 있고, 동일본 대지진의 예에서 확인할 수 있는 바와 같이 2차 피해가 발생하여 엄청난 재앙을 초래할 수 있다. 취수구로 유입되는 유류 등의 오염물질과 생물체를 차단하기 위하여 물리적인 방법과 생물학적 방법을 이용한 여러 가지 장치 및 기법이 고안되고 있지만, 생물학적인 방법은 개체군과 종류의 변화로 그 적용이 곤란하여 물리학적인 방법을 이용한 연구가 주를 이루고 있다. 대표적인 물리학적 장치는 해파리 제거용 그물이 있으나, 포집되는 해파리의 지속적인 제거를 위한 비용적인 문제와, 잠수부의 안전 문제가 발생하고 있다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해서 최근 가장 주목받고 있는 방법은 에어버블을 이용하여, 유해 물질과 생물체를 차단하는 방법이다. 에어버블은 수심조건에 영향을 받지 않고, 취수구가 설치된 영역으로 유해물질의 유입 자체를 방어할 수 있어 몇 몇 선진국에서는 실용화 단계에 접어들고 있다. 본 연구에서는 에어버블 거동을 특성을 파악하기 위해서는 에어버블의 상승속도, 특성, 압력 및 수심조건 등을 고려할 수 있는 실험 장치를 개발하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 선행연구결과 및 현장조건을 고려하여, 취급이 간단하고, 실험조건 조절이 용이한 원통형 실험 장치를 개발하였다.

유조선이 화물유 탱크 내 유류를 적재한 채 국내 연안 해저면에 침몰하는 경우 화물유 탱크 내 적재유가 유출되어 대형 오염사고로 연결될 가능성이 있으므로 화물유 탱크 내 적재유는 신속하고 안전하게 제거 되어야만 한다. 심해 수중작업 특성상 이러한 잔존유 회수작업 완료 후 화물유 탱크 내 잔존유 제거상태의 직접적 확인은 매우 곤란하므로 회수작업 종료 기준 및 절차는 매우 중요하다. 이에 따라, 국내에서 실제 이루어 진 제1유일호 및 제3오성호, 경신호 잔존유 작업사례에 적용된 회수방법에 따른 종료절차를 비교분석하여, 향후 국내 연안에 침몰되는 유조선 잔존유 회수작업에 적용 가능한 합리적 표준 작업종료 절차를 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study was to establish an assessment method for the estimation of the pollution risk by oil spill accidents. Various oil spill patterns were calculated based on past accidents in the study area and these results were analyzed statistically. Then the risk probability, the oil arrival time, risk range, and so on were calculated. These calculations were performed for sub area sectors, fisheries and aquaculture farms, based on information about environmentally sensitive resources. Finally, the risk to each sub area sector was assessed by comparing the calculated results. These consequences indicated the objective and general risks of oil spill accidents and the result of this method will be made more appropriate by integrating real time risk predictions.

Handling of the large quantity of oil, generation of heavy metals at the military blasting range and outworn facilities could cause the environmental accidents. Pollution levels of the former five U.S military bases located in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi-do were measured. Soil contamination by TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons), BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylene), and heavy metals and groundwater contamination were detected. In order to purify contaminated soil, a variety of technologies including soil vapor extraction, slurping, landfarming and soil washing were applied. Contaminated soils of five target bases were purified and the results were suitable for the legal standards.

While the amounts of oil spill caused by the VLCC Hebei Spirit indicated 2.5 times more than that of the VLCC Sea Prince, the economic, environmental, and social damages derived from the Hebei Spirit spill were estimated to be about 30 times greater than those from the Sea Prince incident. This study consolidates the appropriate justification for building a multi-purpose large oil spill response vessel to allow swift and efficient handling of catastrophic marine pollution events through an analysis of technical and economic feasibility of such a project. The result of the technical feasibility analysis illustrates that a hopper dredge and oil spill response vessel with a capacity of 4,000 tons should be more appropriate. The result of the economic feasibility analysis indicates that under the most conservative estimates the project appears to be slightly impractical, with a benefit/cost ratio of 0.82, in which self-help efforts, however, can facilitate the project. And medium to optimistic estimates present benefit/cost ratios are estimated to be 2.72 and 5.82 respectively, representing apparent economic feasibility.

Due to limitations in responding to oil spill incidents that are urgent or that cover a wide area with only oil spill response vessels, Korea Coast Guard (KCG) patrol vessels are utilized. In this study, we have developed an oil sweep system suitable for small patrol vessels. The equipment consists of three components - fixed support, poles, and slide fixers - and can be fastened with a toggle pin to a fall prevention bar on small patrol vessels without welding or additional efforts for installation. The respective weights of each component - fixed support, poles (2 pcs), and slide fixers (4 pcs) - are approximately 9.2 kg, 6.5 kg, and 3.5 kg. The 3 m-pole, which is rotatable 180 degrees horizontally, is folded deckward when replacing oil absorbents. As the development of this equipment has improved the method of deploying and retrieving oil absorbents on KCG small patrol vessels, we expect that more efficient oil spill cleanup will be possible.

In Germany, North Sea and East Sea possess significant meaning in many aspects. North coast has an important economical significance to North Sea Gulf States. There are a number of harbors and manufacturing facilities in this area. Agriculture is also developed. East sea, where sea water and river water mingle. has a problem that it can not control harmful substances as fast as the North Sea due to its geographical location of being connected with the North Sea as a narrow water. To protect from big and small ship accidents and pollution sources, East Sea and North Sea have enacted HELKOM Convention and OSPAR Convention, respectively. Moreover, Denmark and Germany have made cooperation on tugboats in the occurrence of shipment accidents through the LethGer-Plan and DenGer-Plan. In 1998, after the Pallas accident that occurred near Bremen, the need to improve cooperation among each states on usable resources for ocean security has been increased in Germany. Consequently, the federal government and gulf state governments associated and organized the so called, "Havarie-Kommanando Ship Accident Measure Unit". Haravarie-Kommanando is a federal-state associated organization that deals with affairs that controls national operation and mobilization of ship accident related organizations unitively when serious ship accidents occur. Moreover, federal and state participant organizations, each shipping agencies and Wiking-Helicopers-Services, a helicopter agency, are cooperating well. Also, mutual assistance with the most prominent passenger agency called Scandlines, ARGE Kuestenschutz(Germany-Denmark shipping agency) is making progress as well.

Change in fish species composition after the Hebei Spirit oil spill in December 2007 off Taean were determined by analysis of samples collected in Mailpo beach, 10 km south from the oil spill site and polluted by the crude oil. Fish samples were collected by a beach seine in the shallow water at Malipo beach during the low tide of the new moon from February 2008 to December 2009. Five seine hauls were made during the day and the night in each sampling time. Monthly day and night samples did not show the significant differences in species composition. A total of 21 species, 1,032 individuals and 6,544 g of fish were collected in 2008, and 31 species, 4,206 individuals and 35,659 g of fish in 2009. The species collected were composed of the small-sized fish or juveniles. Abundant fishes were the resident species in coastal water, and the migrants were low in abundance. Among the fish occurred, Chelon haematochelius, Sebastes schlegelii, Takifugu niphobles and Pleuronectes yokohamae were predominated in abundance of both years. Monthly fish abundance and species diversity in 2008 were significantly lower than those in 2009. A few number of resident fish were collected from February to June 2008 showing the lowest in May 2008, and fish abundance increased from July 2008. The number of species and abundance of fish in 2009 were increased in spring as the temperature raised, showed a peak in summer and decreased in autumn. This monthly variation in fish species composition and abundance was similar to those in the non-polluted water in other temperate waters. Low fish abundance during several months after oil spill was considered to be related to the residual oil in the water and habitat disturbance due to oil cleaning activity in the beach. Monthly fish species compositions after September 2008 were similar to those of 2009 suggested that the impact on the shallow water fish by the oil residuals was not too significant at least to the fish species composition after September 2008.
