본 연구는 해양퇴적물 준설 중 해양의 탁도와 2차오염을 유발하는 미세한 입자의 퇴적물을 생물학적으로 처리하는 친환경 정화기술로 유용미생물제제(BM-S-1)를 투여한 Lab Scale의 실험장치를 이용하여 기초 실험을 수행하였다. 유용미생물제제(BM-S-1)가 우점되어 있는 Lab Scale 실험장치를 운전하여 유기물 정량분석방법인 COD, T-N, T-P를 분석해본 결과 모든 항목이 약 98% 이상 처리됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 본 실험대상물질인 해양퇴적물은 고농도의 염분이 함유되어 있어 기존기술만으로는 생물학적 처리가 어려웠지만, 본 연구에서 사용된 유용미생물제제(BM-S-1)은 염분이 함유된 오염 퇴적물에서도 효과적인 생물학적 처리가 가능함을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 준설 시 2차오염을 유발시키는 미세한 입자의 해양퇴적물을 본 공법으로 처리하여 방류할 시 친환경적인 준설이 이루어질 수 있으며 이 때 처리되어 배출되는 미세토양은 재이용 가능하다고 판단된다.

Measurements of volumetric water content and saturation of porous media are very important factors in understanding the physical characteristics of soil, groundwater recharge by rainfall, pollutant movement, and slope failure. To measure such physical parameters, a permittivity method using electromagnetic wave is applied and use is made of the special permittivity response of understand to water and ethanol. In particular, the estimation is required because permittivity is influenced by the nature of the underground environment. In this study, we carried out experiments on the relative dependency of soil density, temperature and salinity of standard sand and granitic weathered soil using FDR-V system (Frequency domain reflectometry with vector network analyzer) within a frequency range of 1 - 18 GHz. The results of the study showed that the dielectric constants of standard sand and granitic weathered soil increased with increased volumetric water content of soil. However, the dependency of soil density was found to be a little low. Changes of dielectric constant with temperature appeared definitely in the real part of 1 GHz. That is, the dielectric constant of real part at 1 GHz of water and standard sand increased with the rise of temperature. However, ethanol showed decreased tendency. The study also showed that dielectric constant increased with increase in salinity at imaginary part of 1 GHz. It could be concluded from this study FDR-V system can adequately measure the physical properties of soil and the degree of salinity concentration of porous media within 1 GHz frequency range using dielectric constant.

In LID facilities treating stormwater runoff, various kinds of plants are applied for water circulation recovery and pollutant reduction. However, rapid changes of soil moisture due to the use of porous media and spread of deicing material during winter season cause slow plant growth that detrimentally leads to many problems including death of plants. Therefore, this study was performed to evaluate the salt resistance of plants, its effects on pollutants removal, and water circulation recovery. Eight different kinds of plants applicable to an LID facility were selected for the experiment, which were Bridal wreath (Spiraea japonica, S.J), Azalea (Rhododendron indicum, R.I), Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides, M.G), Sweet flag (Acorus calamus A.C), Dwarf fan-shape columbine(Aquilegia flabellata, A.F), Pink (Dianthus chinensis, D.C), Pratia pedunculata (Pratia pedunculata, P.B) and Marigold (Tagetes patula, T.P). Woody plants such as S.P, R.I, and M.G appear to have less salt resistance compared to the other herbaceous plants. Specifically, M.G achieved the highest salt resistance among the other woody plants being followed by S.P, and R.I, respectively. For herbaceous plants, T.L and D.C have the higher salt resistances than that of A.C, P.B, and A.F, respectively. Regardless of the influence of salt to most of the plants, TN and TP were reduced more than 60% and the study suggests the M.G showed high pollutant removal efficiency and provided better water circulation by means of active photosynthesis and respiration due to higher growth.

도시화는 불투수면의 증가를 야기 시켜 물순환 왜곡, 다양한 오염 물질의 유입으로 인한 비점오염물질 유출, 인공 배출열의 증가로 인한 도시열섬효과 등 다양한 문제를 유발한다. 이러한 수리수문학적 및 환경생태학적 문제를 저감하기 위하여 도시지역과 같은 개발 사업에서는 수환경을 가능한 자연 상태로 복원하는 저영향개발(Low Impact Development, LID)기법이 중요한 대안으로 제시되고 있다. LID기법 중 하나인 옥상녹화는 에너지 이용을 최소한으로 한 자연 녹음의 효과적인 이용을 도모하여 환경공생도시 조성과 식물을 매개로한 자연 순환 과정을 도시구조에 도입하여 순환 시스템 재생이 가능 하도록한다. 노지녹화는 두꺼운 자연 토양을 이용하는 반면 옥상녹화는 적재하중의 제약(옥상의 적재하중 조건은 $150{\sim}180kgf/m^2$이다. 비중이 1.6~1.8인 토양을 20cm 객토한 경우, 약 $320kgf/m^2 $이상의 적재하중이 되기에 식재기반의 경량화는 중요한 사안이다.)으로 인해 용적밀도가 작은 인공경량토양 또는 개량토양을 이용하며, 토양 두께도 얇게 설정된다. 또한 토양의 두께는 식물의 크기와 종류 및 토양의 조성에 따라 다르기에 적재하중 조건을 고려한 적절한 토양과 식재 식물의 크기와 종류 결정은 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 옥상녹화식생에 대한 평가와 이에 대한 시험 프로세스가 가능한 실험 장치를 개발하였다. 옥상녹화 효율성 검증실험장비는 1m*1m*0.6m 아크릴 재질의 녹화셀로 경사조절이 가능하도록 설계하여 경사변화에 따른 유출, 침투, 증발산량의 탄성도 모의 평가를 할 수 있다. 또한 4점식 형태의 로드셀을 이용하여 녹화셀에서 발생하는 증발산량을 측정하고 관측된 증발산량은 RS-232c 이상의 통신프로토콜을 사용하여 주기적인 관측치의 송수신이 가능하며 주기적 자료송수신 외에도 옥상 녹화셀의 측면에 하중 표시기를 설치하여 관측이 가능하다. 또한 저면에 바퀴설치를 통하여 이동 실험이 용이하며 현재 부산대학교 양산캠퍼스 한국 GI&LID 실증단지 연구센터 내 옥상녹화 실험장에 옥상녹화 효율성 검증 실험 장비를 설치하여 자연 혹은 인공강우를 통한 유출, 침투, 증발산량의 시험계측을 실시중이다. 이러한 옥상녹화 효율성 검증실험장비는 최대 하중 2,000kg, 측정해상도 0.02kg 이상을 허용하는 로드셀과 녹화셀을 이용하여 하중을 고려한 식생의 종류에 따른 평가가 가능하므로 최적 식재기반 단면구조 개발에 이용될 수 있을 것이다. 또한 토양 함수량 변화 측정으로 옥상녹화에 이용되는 다양한 종류의 식물의 염분에 대한 저항성과 식물의 성장능력을 평가하여 녹화공간에 따른 옥상녹화에 사용할 식생을 결정할 수 있다.

To determine the influence of food waste compost (FWC) application on paddy soil, FWC was applied to the paddy soil and then compared with farmer's practice as to the effects on rice and soil environment. Initially, pig manure compost (PMC) had high content of phosphorus ($15g\;kg^{-1}$) and potassium ($23g\;kg^{-1}$), while FWC had high content of total nitrogen ($13g\;kg^{-1}$) and salinity ($18.5g\;kg^{-1}$). Comparison was also made between chemical fertilizer and FWC use as a trial in the paddy field under the clay loam and sandy loam soil. In the panicle formation stage, chemical fertilizer application was proper in clay loam while PMC application was proper in sandy loam. However, chemical fertilizer produced higher yield compared to compost treatment, both on clay loam and sandy loam with 20~25% and 17~19%, respectively. The lower yield in sandy loam maybe due to slow mineralization of compost such that the crop did not effectively use it. Organic matter content in paddy soil after experiment was higher in FWC and PMC plots compared to that in chemical fertilizer plots. But the other soil properties were comparable. Therefore, the FWC compost had little effect on soil when it use as a trial in paddy field. Likewise, after the application of FWC as a trial, analysis of nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen in the surface water and 60 cm depth of paddy soil water nine days after planting was done. Results revealed that concentration of ammonium nitrogen was similar to irrigation water while nitrate nitrogen concentration was not detected, and hence did not contribute to water pollution. It is concluded that the application of FWC in the paddy field had not affected on environmental pollution in the paddy field. But its use as compost during rice culture reduced yield quantity. Such study should include selection of compost material, amount and method of compost application.

The LID technique began to be applied in Korea after 2009, and LID facilities are installed and operated for rainwater management in business districts such as the Ministry of Environment, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and LH Corporation, public institutions, commercial land, housing, parks, and schools. However, looking at domestic cases, the application cases and operation periods are insufficient compared to those outside the country, so appropriate design standards and measures for operation and maintenance are insufficient. In particular, LID facilities constructed using LID techniques need to maintain the environment inside LID facilities because hydrological and environmental effects are expressed by material circulation and energy flow. The LID facility is designed with the treatment capacity planned for the water circulation target, and the proper maintenance, vegetation, and soil conditions are periodically identified, and the efficiency is maintained as much as possible. In other words, the soil created in LID is a very important design element because LID facilities are expected to have effects such as water pollution reduction, flood reduction, water resource acquisition, and temperature reduction while increasing water storage and penetration capacity through water circulation construction. In order to maintain and manage the functions of LID facilities accurately, the current state of the facilities and the cycle of replacement and maintenance should be accurately known through various quantitative data such as soil contamination, snow removal effects, and vegetation criteria. This study was conducted to investigate the current status of LID facilities installed in Korea from 2009 to 2020, and analyze soil changes through the continuity and current status of LID facilities applied over the past 10 years after collecting soil samples from the soil layer. Through analysis of Saturn, organic matter, hardness, water contents, pH, electrical conductivity, and salt, some vegetation-type LID facilities more than 5 to 7 years after construction showed results corresponding to the lower grade of landscape design. Facilities below the lower level can be recognized as a point of time when maintenance is necessary in a state that may cause problems in soil permeability and vegetation growth. Accordingly, it was found that LID facilities should be managed through soil replacement and replacement.

The small loop electromagnetic (EM) method is a fast and convenient geophysical tool which can provide resistivity distribution of shallow subsurface. Especially, it can be a useful alternative of resistivity method in a very conductive environment such as a reclaimed saline land. We applied the multi-frequency small loop EM method for the site investigation of reclaimed saline land. We inverted the measured EM data using one dimensional (1D) inversion program and merged to obtain three dimensional (3D) resistivity distribution over the survey area. Finally, comparing he EM results with the drill log and measured soil resistivity sampled at 16 drill holes, we can define the site character such as thickness of landfill, salinity distribution, and etc.

Occurrences of coastal dredged materials are ever increasing due to port construction, navigational course maintenance and dredging of polluted coastal sediments. Ocean dumping of the coastal dredged materials has become virtually prohibited as London Treaty will be enacted as of the year 2012. It will be necessary to treat and recycle the dredged materials that may carry organic pollutants and heavy metals in a reasonable and effective process: collection of the dredged materials, liquid and solid separation, and treatment of organic compounds and heavy metals. In this study we have developed a continuous bioreactor system that can treat a mixture of silt and particulate organic matter using a microbial consortium (BM-S-1). The steady-state operation conditions were: pH (7.4-7.5), temperature ($16^{\circ}C$), DO (7.5-7.9), and salt concentration (3.4-3.7%). The treatment efficiencies of SCOD, T-N and T-P of the mixture were 95-96%, 92-99%, and 79-97%. The system was also effective in removal of heavy metals such as Zn, Ni, and Cr. Levels of MLSS during three months operation period were 11,000-19,000 mg/L. Interestingly, there was little sludge generated during this period of operation. The augmented microbial consortium seemed to be quite active in the removal of the organic component (30%) present in the dredged material in association with indigenous bacteria. The dominant phyla in the treatment processes were Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes while dominant genii were Marinobacterium, Flaviramulus, Formosa, Alteromonadaceae_uc, Flavobacteriaceae_uc. These results will contribute to a development of a successful bioremediation technology for various coastal and river sediments with a high content of organic matter, inorganic nutrients and heavy metals, leading to a successful reuse of the polluted dredged sediments.

This study analyzes the environmental and durability problems of traditional (LW) grouting method. And the proposed method was compared to the others effects by analyzing the in-situ applicability and effect of performance of the method using the silica sol. This study analyzed the eco-friendly, effects of high strength silica sol through laboratory tests. The effects of the construction process were identified through the field tests. The compressive strength was increased by 1.3 times compared to the LW method and the shrinkage is 3~8 times less than that of LW method with water glass. No toxicity, which could affect soil contamination. In particular, it was confirmed that the Toxicity fish also survived with little pH change in the concentration tank. Also it confirmed the construction effects through field test. Field tests are a standard penetration test, permeability test, LLT, BST. Permeability was reduced to $1{\times}10^{-5{\sim}-6}cm/sec$.
