Most wells developed in Jeju island before the enactment of the Groundwater Management Ordinance in 2002 are vulnerable to aquifer contamination due to inflow of upper groundwater having the high concentration of nitrate nitrogen, likely due to incomplete grouting in upper section of the wells. Although these wells require entire reinstallation, it is often necessary to rehabilitate the existing wells due to various constraints. Therefore, to identified the inflow section of contaminants, the thermal level sensor (TLS) technique was firstly applied for three wells, which enables to monitor temperature variations in every 50 cm depth. Then, the grouting material was injected to the upper section to prevent the inflow of upper contaminated groundwater into the entire aquifer. By applying TLS technique, it was found that the temperature deviations in the upper groundwater inflow section decreased sharply. Moreover, both the change in the concentration of nitrate nitrogen in the rainy/dry seasons and the average concentrations were found to decrease rapidly after grouting material injection. Consequently, the application of TLS proposed in the study turned out to be appropriate to prevent aquifer contamination.

Increasing the concentration of nitrate ions in the soil solution and then leaching it to underground aquifers increases the concentration of nitrate in the water, and can cause many health and ecological problems. This study was conducted to evaluate the vulnerability of Meymeh aquifer to nitrate pollution. In this research, sampling of 10 wells was performed according to standard sampling principles and analyzed in the laboratory by spectrophotometric method, then; the nitrate concentration zonation map was drawn by using intermediate models. In the drastic model, the effective parameters for assessing the vulnerability of groundwater aquifers, including the depth of ground water, pure feeding, aquifer environment, soil type, topography slope, non-saturated area and hydraulic conductivity. Which were prepared in the form of seven layers in the ARC GIS software, and by weighting and ranking and integrating these seven layers, the final map of groundwater vulnerability to contamination was prepared. Drastic index estimated for the region between 75-128. For verification of the model, nitrate concentration data in groundwater of the region were used, which showed a relative correlation between the concentration of nitrate and the prepared version of the model. A combination of two vulnerability map and nitrate concentration zonation was provided a qualitative aquifer classification map. According to this map, most of the study areas are within safe and low risk, and only a small portion of the Meymeh Aquifer, which has a nitrate concentration of more than 50 mg / L in groundwater, is classified in a hazardous area.

We evaluated natural attenuation of petroleum hydrocarbons in a shallow aquifer using a modeling study. The studied shallow aquifer was severely contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, especially toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (i.e, TEX). The exact spill history was not known. Therefor we used a contaminant level in May 1999 (the first sampling date of our integrated study) as an initial contaminant concentration. we calibrated required transport parameters using the contamination levels obtained from groundwater analyses in September of 1999. For fate and transport of the petroleum contaminants, five case 2 with sorption and degradation. case 3 with sorption and degradation (half decay constant compared with case 2), case 4 with degradation but no sorption, and case 5 with sorption but no degradation. For sorption and degradation, a linear sorption isotherm and first order irreversible decay was assumed, respectively and no additional contamination source to groundwater is also assumed.

To evaluate the biodegradability of contaminants in an aquifer, computer modeling with RT3D model (Clement, 1997) was used. The RT3D model simulates the biodegradation of organic contaminants using a number of aerobic and anaerobic electron acceptors. The RT3D model was applied to a well-studied petroleum hydrocarbon plume in a shallow unconfined aquifer in Uiwang, Korea. The results of this study demonstrate tile importance of biodegradation processes in the monitored natural attenuation and in reducing contaminant concentrations in a shallow aquifer. The modeling results tell that the amount of electron acceptors is the key factor affecting biodegradation of TEX, the petroleum hydrocarbon contaminant in shallow groundwater

The progressive contamination of water resulted from man's activity and the use of fertilizers is not restricted only to surface water, but also the shallow groundwater is affected. This type of groundwater contamination is mainly restricted to areas composed of permeable, nonconsolidated sediments forming a shallow aquifer. The chloride and the sulfate resulted from man's activity and the use of fertilizers were measured to study the variations of the groundwater contamination. In general, (1) When water level rises, the rate of groundwater contamination becomes less and when water level declines, the rate of contamination is increased. (2) The highly contaminated season is the early-summer and the less contaminated season is the winter or after rainy season. (3) The groundwater in weathering zone without covering layer. (4) The degree of contamination of wells is increased with the increase of well depth and lowing the water table, because of increasing contaminated water from enlargement of the area of influence of the well.

국내 현행 지하수법에서는 오염방지 시설에 관한 개략적인 설치규정만이 설정되어 있어서 대수층의 특성을 고려하지 않은 일률적인 오염방지 시설 기준이므로 지질에 따라 다양하게 발달하는 우리나라의 지하수자원을 효과적으로 보호해 주지 못한다. 최근에는 지하수오염방지에 중요한 기술과 장치로서 패커개발이 점차 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경북 안동시 서후면, 충남 연기군의 오염된 지하수공에 대하여 하부지하수오염방지시설로서 팩커의 적합성을 검토한 결과, 그 효과는 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 연구대상지인 경북 안동시 서후면 창풍리의 경우 팩커를 시공한 결과 탁도는 94%, 연기군 남면 눌왕리의 경우 질산성 질소는 60% 감소효과를 나타내었으며, 이로 인해 모든 수질검사항목에서 적합수질을 보였다. 지하수오염방지를 위해서는 정확한 관정카메라 촬영과 오염원 모니터링 분석을 실시하고, 이에 근거하여 지질특성, 풍화대심도, 파쇄대 발달, 대수층의 수리경사, 오염물의 이동경로를 파악한 후, 통합적으로 지하수오염 가능성을 평가하고, 이를 통하여 적절한 그라우팅과 케이싱 작업이 이루어져야 한다. 유용한 대수층 구간을 확보하여 오염물을 차단하는 그라우팅, 팩커장치, 케이싱은 지하수의 활용과 오염방지에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.

This paper studies the problem of an infinite confined aquifer which at time t ＜ 0 is assumed motionless. At time t = 0 crude oil seeps into the aquifer, thereby contaminating the valuable drinking water. Since the crude oil and water are im-miscible, the problem is posed as a one-dimensional two-phase unsteady moving boundary problem. A similarity solution is developed in which the moving front parameter is obtained by Newton-Ralphson iteration. A numerical scheme, involving the front tracking method, is devised employing the fourth order Runge-Kutta method. Comparison of the exact and numerical schemes shows an error of only 3%. Thus the developed numerical scheme is quite accurate in tackling more realistic problems where exact solutions are not possible.

The partitioning tracer method is to estimate the residual saturation of nonaqueous phase liquid (NAPL) in soils by analyzing tracer's retardation induced by the reversible partitioning of tracer with NAPL. This study is to estimate the residual diesel saturation in soils using the partitioning tracer method. Two-dimensional soil box was used to represent the 2-dimensional flows of groundwater and tracer solution in the saturated aquifer, and the soil box was filled with soil and then saturated with water. The residual diesel saturation was induced in saturated soil, and the partitioning tracer method was applied. The results from batch-partitioning experiment indicated that the diesel-water partitioning was linear with respect to tracer's concentration, and the partition coefficient of tracer between diesel and water was measured by their linearities. The groundwater flow in the saturated aquifer was simulated in the 2-dimensional soil box, and the residual diesel contamination was visually identified. The results from the partitioning tracer method with or without diesel in soils confirmed that 4-methyl-2-pentanol, 2-ethyl-1-butanol and 1-hexanol, can be used as a detecting method for diesel contamination. By the accuracies of estimations for diesel contamination using the partitioning tracer method, 2-ethyl-1- butanol showed the highest accuracy with 83%.

본 연구는 GIS를 활용하여 미국 EPA에서 개발한 DRASTIC 모델에 구조선 밀도, 토지이용을 추가한 변형된 DRASTIC 모델을 개발하고 경기도 평택군 지역의 지하수 오염 가능성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 부가적인 인자를 사용한 이유는 구조선 밀도의 경우 우리 나라의 수리지질 환경에서 대수층은 대부분 암반 대수층인 점을 고려했을 때, 지하수 및 오염 물질 유동에 있어서 구조선의 역할이 매우 중요하기 때문이며, 토지 이용은 점오염원 혹은 비점오염원의 영향을 간접적으로 연구지역에 적용할 수 있기 때문이다. 통계적인 분석을 위하여 각각의 인자별 벡터 레이어를 격자 레이어로 전환하고 각 인자별 상관계수. 3 방향의 주성분 분석에 의한 공분산. 고유치, 고유벡터 등을 구하여 인자들간의 상관관계를 비교 분석하였다. 또한 일반적인 DRASTIC 레이어와 구조선 밀도 레이어, 토지이용 레이어간의 상관계수를 각각 구하고, 이를 각각의 가중치로 적용하여 최종적인 변형된 DRASTIC 모델을 구축하였다. 변형된 DRASTIC 모델을 사용한 결과 일반적인 DRASTIC 모델에 비해 오염 가능 지역이 많이 세분화되었고. 그 결과 오염 가능성이 높은 취약 지역을 구체적으로 구분할 수 있었다.
