The present notes summarize the results obtained from the effect of soil-solution ratio on pH values of soils having widely different physico-chemical characteristics. The pH was determined in deionized water N-KCl and 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ solution The results obtained are: 1. With deionized water, the pH values increase with the increase in soil-solution ratio. The increase is more in upland soils than in paddy soils. 2. With N-KCl solution, there is also an increase in pH values with the increase in soil-solution ratio but the increase is less than the corresponding increase with deionized water. 3. With 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ solution, there is practically no change in pH values with the increase in soil-solution ratio except for saline soils. 4. In case of saline soils, the pH increase even in case of 0.01 M $CaCl_2$ solution with increase in soil-solution ratio, the reason for increase may be due to decrease of electric potential by high concentration of salts.

In order to study the effect of seed-fertilizer vertical distance with soil moisture and fertilizer levels on the emergence and initial growth, barley cv. Olbori was seeded in the pots filled with sandy loam or loamy sand soils which were adjusted to 80-100% (higher soil moisture) or 50-60% (lower soil moisture) of soil moisture retention percent at 1/10 atmosphere tension. Prior to seeding of barley seed-fertilizer distance was appropriately controlled by adding soils after dressing fertilizer at three levels-normal application ($N:P_2O_5:K_2O=6-9-7kg/10a$), 50% increase of normal dose and double application. In addition, germination experiment was conducted in the various concentrations of fertilizer solutions under room temperature. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Seed-fertilizer vertical distance must be more than three centimeters to avoid from the decrease and retardation of emergence and poor initial growth of bareley by fertilizer application. 2. Emergence of barley more decreased and retarded in sandy soils than loamy soils and was decelerated with increase of application rate in fertilizer and decrease of soil moisture content. 3. Germination rate remarkably decrease from 0.4 percent of nitrogen solution and 0.5 percent of potassium solution and reached zero at 2.3 and 2.4 percent of nitrogen and potassium solutions, respectively. 4. Germination of seeds affected by concentrated fertilizer solutions was remarkably recovered with dilution degree of fertilizer solution.

The optimal operation conditions of electrofloatation for oil-water separation of soil flushing effluent including electrolyte and pH were investigated. The reactor (200 ${\times}$ 10 ${\times}$ 15 cm) for the experiment was constructed by using acrylic plate. Diesel concentration was 1,000 mg/L in the 1 % mixed surfactant solution ($POE_5$: $POE_{14}$ 1: 1). Titanium coated electrode was used as cathode and stainless steel electrode as anode. Reaction time was 62 minutes (reaction time: 60 min., flotation time: 2 min.) and voltage was 6 V. The separation efficiency of electrofloatation was improved to 40% by electrolyte addition. Furthermore, NaCl (1N) added as electrolyte was showed enhanced efficiency compared to NaOH (1N). While, the effect of both NaCl and NaOH was sequentially increased in the range of 0.2∼1.0% (0.02∼0.1 M). The equilibrium time was found as 20 min. in the range of 0.4∼1.0% (0.04∼0.1M) for both of them.

The characteristics of cesium and cobalt removal from soil around the TRIGA reactor using the electrokinetic method were analyzed and a device to restrain the pH increase in the soil column was suggested. When a NaCl solution was used as the electrolyte to raise the electric field strength, a precipitate was formed in the cathode in the soil column, resulting in a low removal efficiency. Thus, an acetate buffer solution (compound solution of $CH_3COONa$ and $CH_3COOH$) was injected into the soil column and acetic acid was periodically infected into the cathode reservoir to restrain any pH increase. Many $Cs^{2+}$ and $Co^{2+}$ ions were transferred by electromigration rather than electroosmosis during the initial remediation period, and no precipitate was formed in the soil column. 96% of the total amount of cesium in the soil column was removed after 5.9 days, while 94% of the total amount of cobalt was removed. Furthermore, the residual concentrations predicted by the developed model were similar to those obtained by experiment.

The effect of wollastonite and manganese dioxide on the growth of rice on an acid sulfate soil were investigated in pot experiment. 1. Since aluminum content in the leachate of soil was reduced with increasing the pH and these chemical changes in the leachate were more pronounced by applying wollastonite, aluminum toxicity in flooded paddy rice was overcome by applying wollastonite, or flooding. 2. Poor growth of rice with iron toxicity-like symptoms on the untreated acid sulfate soil may be caused by excess iron and sulfur. Plants applied wollastonite, however, grew normally and did not show any symptoms. Iron and sulfur contents in the plant was reduced by applying wollastonite. 3. Because of the iron content in the both leachate and plant can be lowered by applying wollastonite, iron-toxicity was averted by applying the wollastonite. 4. Application of manganese dioxide in combination with wollastonite did not counteracted iron content in the plant as compared with the wollastonite treatment. 5. The application of wollastonite increased the dry weight of straw and grain yield. Manganese dioxide with wollastonite caused the increase of number of spickelets per panicles and ripened grains as compared with wollastonite. 6. From these results it can be concluded that the major cause of the poor growth of rice on acid sulfate soil is iron toxicity and the Fe-toxicity can be reduced by application of wollastonite.

이온교환 수지는 이온성 물질을 제거하는 가장 신31성 있는 단위공정일 뿐만 아니라 재사용의 측면에서 매우 경제적이다. 특히 토양화학 분야에서 지난 한세기 동한 수많은 연구가 진행되어 왔으며, 이온교환은 연수 및 탈염공정, 특정물질의 제거 및 회수, 토양을 통한 이온성 물질의 이동에서 널리 이용되고 있다. 이온의 선택도는 이온의 수화반경과 용액의 농도, 이온의 원자가에 따라 좌우된다. 본 연구는 양이온 평형실험과 칼럼실험을 통해 이온사이의 선택도 순서와 바탕음이온에 따른 특성을 조사하였다. 이 실험의 결과에서 양이온의 선택성의 농도가 낮을수록, 이온의 원자가가 높을수록 증가하였다. 평형실험의 양이온 선택도 순서는 H/sup +/< K/sup +/< Cu/sup 2+/ < Co/sup 2+/ < Ca/sup 2+/ < Ce/sup 3+/ 이며, 양이온 칼럼 순서도 동일함을 알 수 있다.

LPG 공동이 위치한 곳의 지하수 흐름은 단층이나 절리면 같은 자연적인 요인과 수막터널, LPG 공동의 인공적 요인에 의해 동시에 영향을 받게 된다 1985년부터 1997까지의 수위변화를 통해 분석한 결과 연구지역의 지하수위 변동은 크게 강우와 공동운영압에 의해 크게 영향을 받고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 관측정의 수위 강하와 공동누입수의 감소에 대한 문제는 94, 95년 연구지역의 가뭄에 따른 지하수 유입량의 감소에 따른 것으로 판단되며 미생물에 의한 clogging은 명확하지 않은 것으로 판단된다. 지하수의 수리지구화학 분석 결과 연구지역 지하수는 단층이 지하수 흐름의 통로가 될 수 있음을 보여주었으며 강우와 세정제가 지하수 화학에 가장 영향을 많이 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 미생물 세정작업에 사용된 차아 염소산나트륨용액은 pH, Na, Cl의 증가를 유발하였으며 지화학 모델 계산 결과 방해석의 포화지수를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper examines the influences of mining activities on the concentrations of heavy metals in soils in the vicinity of the Dalsung Cu-W mine, Korea. Geochemical surveys were undertaken in the Dalsung mine area and sampling of surface and subsurface soils was carried out. Samples were prepared using 0.1 N HCI, HNO$_3$-HClO$_4$, and aqua regia, and analyzed for Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. In addition, soil samples were sequentially extracted to investigate the chemical speciation of heavy metals in soils. Heavy metals are highly contaminated in soils in the vicinity of mining area ranging up to 28 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g Cd, 5000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g Cu, 2390 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g Pb and 930 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g Zn by the method using HNO$_3$-HClO$_4$. The pollution indices calculated with the permissible levels are up to 49 in surface and subsurface soils, which are considered sufficient to raise environmental problems. However, the heavy metal levels by the method using 0.1 N HCl are not higher than Korean standard for soil contamination. It suggests that analytical methods and soil standard should be re-examined. From the results of the sequential extraction methods for metal speciation, total Cu, Pb and Zn concentrations may be determined by analytical methods using HNO$_3$-HClO$_4$ or aqua regia, and exchangeable phase of those metals by the method using 0.1 N HCl.
