본 연구에서는 네덜란드에서 시행하고 있는 토양환경정책을 정리하고, 국내의 적용성에 대해서 검토해 보았다. 네덜란드의 토양환경관리의 목표점은 토양의 다기능성을 유지시키고자 한 것으로서 다기능성의 회복에 토양정화의 주목적이 있다. 네덜란드의 토양법체계는 토양보호법을 기점으로 주변에 환경관리법, 건축법등을 통해 토양환경의 보전을 하고 있으며, 공장지대나 주유소는 토양보호법의 테두리안에서 별도의 명령을 통해 관리되고 있다. 아울러 정화의 책임을 명확히 하였으며, 정화의 책임순서로는 오염원인자, 소유자, 권리행사자 순으로 되어 있으며. 정화는 오염자 스스로 정화를 하도록 유도하고 그렇지 않을 경우에는 정부가 돈을 투자하여 정화를 행하고 있다. 아울러 건축물을 짓고자 할 경우에는 토양에 관한 조사를 하도록 하고 있으며, 토지를 사고 파는 과정에서는 반드시 토양의 질에 관한 정보를 확인하도록 행하고 있다.

토양오염 정화방법의 하나인 토양증기추출법(soil vapor extraction, SVE)은 오염된 토양에 진공 또는 가압의 공기를 공급하여 연속적인 공기 흐름을 유도함으로써 토양의 기공에 잔류하는 유해화합물의 증발을 촉진하여 오염물질을 제거하는 공정이다. 본 연구에서는 토양증기추출법의 효율에 영향을 주는 인자들 가운데에서 토양의 수분함량과 오염물질의 종류가 오염물질의 제거효율에 미치는 영향에 대한 실험과 계산을 수행하였다. 인공토양으로 glass bead, sand, molecular sieve가 사용되었으며. 오염물질로는 톨루엔. 메틸에틸케톤, 트리클로로에틸렌이 사용되었다. 각 실험에 대하여 프로인들리히 등온식과 기공확산모델 등을 고려하여 계산을 수행한 결과, 수분이 없는 경우에는 탈착식에 의해, 수분이 있는 경우에는 interparticle에서의 확산 현상에 의해 오염물질의 제거속도가 지배됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구결과는 정화대상지역에 SVE를 이용한 적절한 정화방법을 설계하는데 기초자료로 이용할 수 있을 것이다.

Surface charge characteristics of Ultisol(Luisiana soil from Philippines), Alfisol(Maahas soil from Philippines), and Inceptisol(Yongii soil from Korea) were studied by way of potentiometric titration, backtitration technique, and ion adsorption method(or CEC - AEC method). The PZNC(point of zero net charge) values determined by ion adsorption method were much lower than the natural pHs in all soils, indicating that all soil samples bore net negative surface charge. The PZSE (point of zero salt effect) values determined by potentiometric titration and backtitration technique were identical in Luisiana and Yongii soils but not in Maaghas soil. All soils showed higher PZSE values than PZNC values probably due to the influence of permanent negative charge. The permanent charge calculated by the theory of Uehara and Gillman (1980) occupied quite low portion of the CEC measured at pH 7 in all soils. Backtitration technique corrected errors of potentiometric titration at extreme pH. However, it still overestimate the surface charge compared with ion adsorption method. Therefore, the ion adsorption method was recommanded for the surface charge measurement of the usual soils which have high negative charge components.

국내의 토양오염 공정시험방법에서는 Zn, Ni 추출시 산분해법에 가까운 방법을 사용하는 반면, Cd, Cu, Pb, $Cr^{6+}$ 추출시 0.1N HCl용액으로 산처리하여 1시간을 진탕한 후 이를 필터로 여과하여 분석용액을 추출하는 용출법을 사용하고 있다(환경부, 2001). 시료내에는 완충 물질이 존재하기 때문에 용출법 사용시 초기 pH 인 1(0.1N HCl)이 유지되지 않아 완충능력이 높은 토양의 경우 현재 국내 공정법상의 용출법이 중금속 오염정도를 추정하는데 적절치 않을 수 있다. (중략)

유류로 오염된 토양에 대해 토양경작법(Landfarming)을 적용하여 복원효율을 평가하였다. 복원 초기에는 주로 휘발에 의한 오염물질의 저감이 이루어졌으며, 이 후 미생물성장에 필요한 토양뒤집기와 질소원 영양물질의 공급으로 인해 미생물수가 복원초기에 비해 약 200배 증가하면서 약 30여일 경과 후 초기 20,000ppm에서 복원목표인 TPH의 토양오염우려기준 2,000ppm의 이하인 1,910ppm으로 감소하였다. 시간이 경과할수록 탄소원 섭취기질 부족으로 완만한 오염물질 감소속도를 나타내면서 최종적으로 TPH를 측정한 결과 1,288ppm으로서 제거효율 94%이상을 나타내었다.

Laboratory scale experiments were performed to investigate the removal efficiency of the in-situ chemical oxidation method and the air-sparging method for diesel contaminated soil and groundwater. Two kinds of diesel contaminated soils (TPH concentration : 2,401 mg/kg and 9,551 mg/kg) and groundwater sampled at Busan railroad station were used for the experiments. For batch experiments of chemical oxidation by using 50% hydrogen peroxide solution, TPH concentration of soil decreased to 18% and 15% of initial TPH concentration. For continuous column experiments, more than 70% of initial TPH in soil was removed by using soil flushing with 20% hydrogen peroxide solution, suggesting that most of diesel in soil reacted with hydrogen peroxide and degraded into $CO_2$ or $H_2O$ gases. Batch experiment for the air-sparging method with artificially contaminated groundwater (TPH concentration : 810 mg/L) was performed to evaluate the removal efficiency of the air-sparging method and TPH concentration of groundwater decreased to lower than 5 mg/L (waste water discharge tolerance limit) within 72 hours of air-sparging. For box experiment with diesel contaminated real soil and groundwater, the removal efficiency of air-sparging was very low because of the residual diesel phase existed in soil medium, suggesting that the air-sparging method should be applied to remediate groundwater after the free phase of diesel in soil medium was removed. For the last time, the in-situ box experiment for a unit process mixed the chemical oxidation process with the air-sparging process was performed to remove diesel from soil and groundwater at a time. Soil flushing with 20% hydrogen peroxide solution was applied to diesel contaminated soils in box, and subsequently contaminated groundwater was purified by the air-sparging method. With 23 L of 20% hydrogen peroxide solution and 2,160 L of air-sparging, TPH concentration of soil decreased from 9,551 mg/kg to 390 mg/kg and TPH concentration of groundwater reduced to lower than 5 mg/L. Results suggested that the combination process of the in-situ hydrogen peroxide flushing and the air-sparging has a great possibility to simultaneously remediate fuel contaminated soil and groundwater.

To find a quick test procedure for soil nitrate concentration, two methods, i.e. "Nitracheck 404" reflectometer (Eijkelkamp, Netherlands) with nitrate test strip and a portable colorimeter "Hanna Ion Specific meter(USA) with a color development reagent, were tested for twenty soils with different nitrate contents ranged between from $10mg\;kg^{-1}$ to $340mg\;kg^{-1}$. The standard deviation, coefficient of variability, and recovery from these quick test procedures were compared with those measured by conventional Kjeldahl distillation method and nitrate ion electrode method. The nitrate concentration measured by portable colorimeter method was higher in soils with low concentration and lower in soils with high concentration than those measured by conventional methods. However, concentrations measured by test strip reflectometer method was showed the similar coefficient of variability and recovery as those by conventional methods for all soil samples. From the experimental results in this study, the test strip reflectometer method was thought to be recommendable one revealed the satisfied results for accuracy, quickness, and simplicity for field test of soil nitrate concentration.

폐금속 광산 주변 및 광산 하부 농경지 토양에 대한 중금속 오염원으로서 폐금속 광산 주변에 방치된 폐석의 영향을 고찰하고 오염토양에 대한 복구방법으로서 반전객토의 효율성을 검토하기 위하여 동진 금·은·동 광산 주변토양과 하부 농경지 중 오염된 논, 객토된 논 및 오염되지 않은 논을 선정하여 각각의 토양과 변에서 보여지는 금속원소의 함량과 분포특성을 비교·고찰한 결과, 동진광산에 주변에 방치된 폐석은 폐광된지 30여년이 지난 지금에도 주변토양 및 수계 하부의 농경지에 강한 중금속 오염원으로 작용하고 있음을 보여 이들의 광해를 방지하기 위해 적절한 복구대책이 필요한 것으로 판명되었다. 오염토양의 복구법으로서 반전객토지에서 산출된 나락의 중금속 함량(Cd 0.015ppm, Cr 0.07ppm, Cu 0.567ppm)은 비객토 오염지(Cd 0.096-0.215ppm, Cr 0.195-0.275ppm, Cu 1.085-1.151ppm)에 비해 대부분의 원소에서 2배 이상 낮은 값을 보이고 있어 농작물에의 중금속 전이를 억제하는 데는 상당히 효율적임을 시사했다. 이러한 결과는, 단순히 토양의 물리성 개선 및 이에 따른 토양환경의 변화 등에 의한 일시적 효과일 수 있음을 배제할 수 없지만, 적어도 반전객토법이 토질개선 방법 중 가장 간편하고 오염된 토양부분의 배출토에 대한 처리문제 및 이로 인한 이차오염문제 등을 고려하지 않아도 된다는 점을 감안할 때 소규모 금속광산 주변으로 비교적 오염정도가 약한 토양을 정화법으로 이용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

Soil organic matter (SOM) is an important soil component releasing nutrients to the plants and reducing risks of soil contamination to the human and ecosystem. Much attention has been recently paid to SOM investigation and management because SOM holds the most of carbon in the earth and sequestrate carbon as a sink tank. The first objective of the study was to investigate SOM of 495 soil samples taken at the Korea Soil Quality Monitoring Network. Soil samples were collected from 16 regions and 8 land use types. The second objective of the study was to find a relationship between the Tyurin method and loss-on-ignition (LOI) method for SOM. The means of SOM by Tyurin and LOI methods were 1.90 and 2.92 % (w/w), respectively. Land uses such as forest, religious area and park where organic matters continuously supply to normally showed higher SOMs than residential and school areas having sandy soils. A regression equation of the relationship between Tyurin and LOI methods was y(Tyurin) = 0.6257x(LOI) + 0.0602 (P-value < 0.001). The coefficient of determination was $R^2=0.749$, relatively linearly related. Although LOI may result in higher SOMs than the Tyurin method, LOI may be a preference for the SOM investigation if various kinds of land uses and many soil samples should be measured.

The objectives of this study were to introduce the methods of soil respiration measurement, to review soil respiration studies conducted in Korea, and to suggest potential issues generated from using various methods for soil respiration measurement. According to the measurement principles, the methods of soil respiration measurements are classified as: alkali absorption method (AA), closed chamber method (CC), closed dynamic chamber method (CDC), and open flow method (OF). Based on the litereaure review on soil respiration studies in Korea, the CDC method was mostly used by the researchers (62%), followed by the AA (17%), OF (13%) and CC (8%) methods. Along with these methods, various instruments were used such as LI-6400-09, EGM-3, EGM-4, and automatic soil respiration chamber. Most of the soil respiration measurements were carried out in forest ecosystems and the reported soil respiration showed a wide range of variations from 130 to 900 mg $CO_2\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$. Continuous monitoring of soil respiration with minimal disturbance and the potential inconsistency in measurements are still the challenges facing the researchers, causing a paucity in quality datasets of sufficient quantity. Few attempts of intercomparison among different methods hinder the data users from synthetic analysis and assessment of the collected datasets. In order to better estimate soil carbon budget and understand their exchange mechanisms in key ecosystems of Korea, it is necessary to measure soil respiration at various plant functional types, soils, and climate conditions over a decadal time scale along with the study on the partitioning of soil respiration into autotrophic and heteorotrophic components.
