하천퇴적물은 물의 순환과정에서 유역으로부터 유입되는 물질에 따라 조성이 변하게 된다. 특히 입자가 작은 토양과 유기성 물질들은 물순환과정에 이동성이 크게 나타나며, 인간에 의해 개발된 지역은 자연상태에 비해 이동하는 물질이 많이 나타나곤 한다. 본 연구에서는 하천에 건설된 보에 대한 퇴적물 조사를 실시함으로서 향후 수질관리에 필요한 기초 자료를 수집하고자 하였다. 본고에서는 금강과 낙동강에 건설된 보의 주요지점에 대한 퇴적물 조사를 실시하고 수질영향을 평가하였다. 조사는 홍수기전과 홍수기후로 구분하여 2회에 걸쳐 실시하였으며 물리적 성상과 화학적 항목에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 입도분석 결과 금강 주요 10개 지점의 퇴적물 조성은 Sand, Silt와 Clay 성분이 혼합되어 있는 것으로 분석되었으며, 삼각좌표 분류법에 의한 토성은 대부분의 지점이 실트질양토(SiL)로 평가되었다. 완전연소가능량은 0.35~1.37로 전 지점에서 하천 호소 퇴적물 오염평가 기준의 유기물 함량기준 13%보다 높지 않은 것으로 나타났으며 홍수기 전 후에도 거의 유사하였다. 금강에서는 중금속뿐만 아니라 유기물 및 영양염류도 기준보다 낮게 나타났으며, 모든 항목에서 환경부예규인 하천 호소퇴적물 오염평가 기준보다 낮게 평가되었다. 하상 퇴적물이 수질에 미치는 영향을 평가하는 용출실험에서도 유기물 및 중금속 모두 수질에 미치는 영향은 거의 없는 것으로 평가되었다. 낙동강 주요 26지점의 입도분석 결과 퇴적물 조성은 대부분 Sand로 구성되어 삼각좌표 분류법에 의한 토성은 사토(S)로 평가되었다. 홍수기 전 후에 조사한 결과 완전연소가능량은 0.27~2.85으로 전 지점에서 하천 호소 퇴적물 오염평가 기준의 유기물 함량 기준보다 낮았으며 홍수기 전 후에도 거의 유사하였다. 화학적 성상 분석 결과 모든 항목에서 환경부예규인 하천 호소퇴적물 오염평가 기준보다 낮게 평가되었으며, 용출실험에서도 유기물 및 중금속 모두 수질에 영향을 거의 미치지 않는 것으로 평가되었다. 이번 조사는 4대강 건설 후 하상이 안정화 되지 않은 상태로 인해 지점간 특별한 경향성은 확인할 수 없었으며 보다 정확한 결과 도출을 위해서는 장기적인 조사를 통해 평가해야 할 것으로 판단되었다.

본 연구는 호소내 오염된 퇴적물 처리를 위한 전처리 장치로 Hydrocyclone의 이용가능 성을 평가하는 실험이다. 외국의 선행 연구자인 Rietema의 표준 규격을 참고하여 제작된 Hydrocyclone을 이용하여 기흥저수지 퇴적물로 실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과 입자에 따른 오염 도 평가에서는 입자가 작을수록 포함된 오염물의 농도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 퇴적물을 이용한 장치특성 및 운전조건 변화에 따른 실험에서 공급속도가 빠르고, 공급시료의 농도가 낮으며, 장치의 크기가 작을수록 입자별 분리효율이 높았다.

호소 수질에 영향을 미치는 대표적 인자로 외부 유입물질과 퇴적물을 들 수 있다. 따라서, 호소 수질 관리를 위해서는 호소로 유입되는 점ㆍ비점 오염원 관리와 함께, 퇴적층 관리도 수반되어야만 한다. 특히, 호소수가 주요 식수원으로 사용되는 경우에는 엄격한 퇴적토질 평가가 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 소양호 퇴적층에 대한 환경지질학적 조사 연구의 일환으로 다양한 bioassays 기법(the battery of bioassays)을 적용하여 퇴적토의 오염상태를 평가하였다.

In this study, 46 reservoirs in South Korea were characterized based on heavy metal concentration in sediments. We analyzed the relationship between heavy metal concentrations, physicochemical water quality and hydromorphological factors in each reservoir. Study reservoirs were classified into five groups of reservoirs, by hierarchical cluster analysis based on the similarities of heavy metal concentration. Group 1 had the most severe sediment heavy metal contamination among the groups, whereas Groups 2 and 3 showed low levels of heavy metal contamination. Group 4 displayed high value of Ni, and Group 5 showed high contamination of Pb, Cu, Cr, Ni, and Hg. Groups 1 and 5, which had high concentration of heavy metals in sediments, showed a high density of mines in the catchment of reservoirs. Heavy metal concentration was high in reservoirs with large capacity or the ones located at higher elevation, and also highly related with number of mines in the catchment of reservoir. This study can contribute to the systematic management of sediment heavy metals in reservoirs.

The study was carried out to analysis of the pollutant $COD_{Mn}$, T-N, T-P for water quality proximated to sediment in lake of K river basin. water extracted from sediment showed higher $COD_{Mn}$, T-N, T-P datas than water proximated to sediment. Also, water proximated to sediment and water 5-10cm proximated to sediment showed the following data : $COD_{Mn}$, 1.2~1.9mg/L, T-N, 1.3~6.2mg/L, TP, 0.05~0.26mg/L, respectively. From this results, we have known the fact that the pollution degree of sediment have an effect on the water quality in lake and stream.

In this study, a hydrocyclone operated by centrifugal force was examined as a part of dredge system of lake sediments. It does not help dehydration of the sediments, but also enables the classification of fine particles in the stable and sanitary treatment. Several experiments were performed focusing on the separation efficiency under the condition of room temperature with virtual sediment samples and simulated particles. As a result of the experiment, it was found that the apex size of the cyclone greatly affected the cut diameter(d$_{50}$), and high density particles were separated more effectively.y.

Contaminants such as organic matters, nutrients and toxic chemicals in rivers and lakes with a weak flow rate are first removed from the water and accumulated in the sediments. Subsequently, they are released into the water column again, posing direct/indirect adverse effects on the water quality and aquatic ecosystems. In particular, phosphorus is known to accelerate the eutrophication phenomenon when it is released into the water column via physical disturbance and biological/chemical actions as one of important materials that determine the primary production of aquatic ecosystems and an element that is stored mainly in the sediments in the process of material circulation in the body of water. In this study, the effect on reducing phosphorus release in sediments was analyzed by applying different capping materials to lake water, where the effect of aquatic microorganisms is taken into account, and to distilled water, where the effect of microorganisms is excluded. The experimental results showed that capping with chemical materials such as Fe-gypsum and $SiO_2$-gypsum further reduced the phosphorus release by at least 40% compared to the control case. Composite materials like granule gypsum+Sand showed over 50% phosphorus release reduction effect. Therefore, it is determined that capping with chemical materials such as granule-gypsum and eco-friendly materials such as sand is effective in reducing phosphorus release. The changes in phosphorus properties in the sediments before and after capping treatment showed that gypsum input helped to change the phosphorus that is present in lake sediments into apatite-P, a stable form that makes phosphorus release difficult. Based on the above results, it is expected that the application of capping technology will contribute to improving the efficiency of reducing phosphorus release that occurs in river and lake sediments.

Status of the contaminated sediments in Lake Paldang was investigated. Sediment samples were taken at 34 points and analyzed in terms of ignition loss, CODer, total P and total N. The contamination level did not show any significant variation with depth of the sediments, which indicated the contaminants were recalcitrant. The type of P in the sediment was analyzed, and the sum of adsorbed P and NAI-P, that can be re-solubilized under the reductive condition, was found to be 20-30% of the total P. From the analysis of the water quality change along with the flowing path, it would be concluded that the effect of the sediments on the water quality is insignificant yet in Lake Paldang. However, long term analysis covering at least four seasons should be continued in order to get a more reliable conclusion. A depth profile map of the sediment in Lake Paldang was provided.

Dry sieving, wet sieving and photoscattering analyzer were tested as particle size analyzing methods for sediments from rivers and lakes of Han river, Nakdong river, Youngsan river, and Kumgang river area. Dry sieving showed a big error due to coagulating effect over drying process and this phenomena was severe for lake sediment. Wet sieving and PSA showed an accurate results though wet sieving needs more labor and complicate processes. Freeze-dry or freeze-dry after oxidation of organics with hydrogen peroxide showed improved results but gave lower portion of fine particles in comparing with wet sieving. Heavy metal contents and extractable metal contents were investigated for the sediments and high heavy metal content and extractable amount were obtained from fine particles as expected. Using of proper particle size analyzing method is important and the sediment management should be focused on the fine particles.
