This study aimed to remove organic matter and heavy metals that could affect the recycling of soils contaminated by heavy metals, by means of electrolysis, carried out simultaneously with the leaching of the soil. To ensure better experimental equipment, a soil electrolysis apparatus, equipped with spiral paddles, was used to agitate the heavy-metal-contaminated soil effectively. The heavy-metal-contaminated soil was electrolyzed by varying the voltage to 5 V(Condition 1), 15 V(Condition 2), and 20 V(Condition 3), under the optimal operating conditions of the electrolysis apparatus, as determined through previous studies. The results showed that the pH of the electrolyte solution and the heavy-metal-contaminated soil, after electrolysis, tended to decrease with an increase in voltage. The highest removal efficiencies of TOC and $COD_{Cr}$ were 18.8% and 29.1%, 38.8% and 4.2%, and 33.3% and 50.0%, under conditions 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Heavy metals such as Cd and As were not detected in this experiment. The removal efficiencies of Cu, Pb and Cr were 4.7%, 8.3% and 2.1%, respectively, under Condition 1, while they were 42.9%, 15.2% and 22.1%, respectively, under Condition 2, and 4.7%, 23.0%, and 24.9%, respectively, under Condition 3. These results suggest that varying the voltage with the soil electrolysis apparatus for removing contaminants for the recycling of heavy-metal-contaminated soil allows the selective removal of contaminants. Therefore, the results of this study can be valuable as basic data for future studies on soil remediation.

This study was conducted to evaluate effects by adding oil to clay soil and influences of remained oil in soil as time elapsed. Unconfined compression test and direct shear test were performed to analyze strength properties of contaminants in clayey soil. As a results of $q_u$ test for kerosene and diesel contaminated clayey soil indicate that were decreased from near 5% oil content rapidly and the declination of strength were blunt as oil content over 10%. The cohesions(c) and internal friction angle(${\psi}$) of kerosene contaminated clayey soil were not varied as quantities of kerosene in clayey soil increased. In the case of diesel contaminated clayey soil, the cohesions(c) were decreased and the internal friction angle(${\psi}$) were increased.

본 연구는 비소오염토양에 볏짚퇴비 시용량 증대가 토양의 화학성, 벼의 생육 특성 그리고 식물체의 비소함량에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 비소오염토양 중 볏짚퇴비 시용량이 증가하면서 벼 생육단계(분얼기, 출수기 및 수확기) 모두에서 지상부 비소함량 및 축적량은 감소되었다. 결과적으로 비소오염토양에 볏짚퇴비의 시용에 따른 토양교질 내의 다양한 음전하가 증가되고, 이로 인하여 비소의 흡착능력이 향상됨으로써 토양에서 벼 식물체로의 흡수 및 축적량을 감소시키는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 비소오염토양에 볏짚퇴비의 시용은 벼 지상부로의 비소흡수·축적을 감소시키는 하나의 요인이 될 수 있으며, 안전한 농산물 및 가축의 조사료 생산을 위한 벼 재배관리에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Arsenic speciation changes between As(V) and As(III) are subject to changes in accordance with redox conditions in the environment. It is common to find contaminated sites associated with mixed wastes including both organic pollutants and heavy metals. We conducted microcosm experiment under hypothesis that the co-disposed organic pollutants would influence on the arsenic forms and concentrations, via degradation of the organic pollutants and the consequent impact on the redox conditions in soil. Artificially contaminated soil samples were run for 40 days with control samples without artificial contamination. We noticed arsenic in the contaminated soil showed different behaviour compared with the arsenic in the control soil. The findings indicate degradation of organic pollutants in the contaminated soil influenced on the arsenic speciation and concentrations. A further work is needed to understand the process quantitatively. However, we could confirm that degradation of organic pollutants can influence on the abiotic processes associated with geochemical reactions in contaminated soil. Degradation of organic pollutants can increase the mobility and toxicity of arsenic in soil and sediment by changing redox conditions in the geological media and subsequently from As(V) to As(III).

The permeability of contaminated soil and elapsed time are important considering factors to in-situ soil remadiation. Gabr et. al. (1996) derived the solution equation of contaminant concentration ratio as initial one (C/$C_0$) with time and spatial changes in contaminated area which embedded with vertical drains. The contaminant concentration ratio (C/$C_0$) is analyzed with time and spatial changes in three different permeability areas which are $k=l.0{\times}10^{-5,}$ $l.0{\times}l0^{-6,}$ $l.0{\times}l0^{-7}\;_{m/s}$ by using the Gabr's equation. Results from numerical analysis indicate that the ratio (C/$C_0$) decreases as the elapsed time increases in every point, however, remediation efficiency decreases as the analyzing point is far from injection well to extraction one and is deeper from top level of contaminated area. And also it decreases as the permeability of contaminated area decreases. Especially, the lower permeability of contaminated area effects directly on the soil remediation, in this research, under condition which the permeability of contaminated area is $l.0{\times}l0^{-7}\;_{m/s}$, the maximum time needed to attain 90% clean up level ($t_{90}$) is 65,690 hours(7.5 years), it takes so much time to clean the low permeability contaminated soil.

Land contamination has emerged as a major environmental and land management issue over the last decade. Although the importance of contaminated land management was continuously increased and many developed countries tried to make advanced contaminated land register system, current Korea soil regulations and policies have not been considered yet. This study analyzed existing or developing contaminated land register system from various countries to suggest implications of environmental decision support. Through this study, the introduction of contaminated land management system as creating a new system in Korea needs to considerable review to the following in order to achieve the objective through a effective adoption and operation (1) we need to establish contaminated land register system by providing a proper legal basis before the imposition of data collection, investigation, and management, (2) sufficient examination is required to identify scope of information disclosure and criteria, contents, and subjects of items from contaminated land register system.

This study evaluated the feasibility of combined use of physical separation and soil washing to remediate heavy metals (Pb and Cu) contaminated soil in a military shooting range. The soils were classified into two types based on the level of heavy metal concentrations: a higher contaminated soil (HCS) with Pb and Cu concentrations of 6,243 mg/kg and 407 mg/kg, respectively, and a lower contaminated soil (LCS) with their concentrations of 1,658 mg/kg and 232 mg/kg. Pb level in both soils exceeded the regulatory limit (700 mg/kg), and its concentration generally increased with decreasing soil particle size. However, in some cases, Pb concentrations increased with increasing soil particle size, presumably due to the presence of residues of bullets in the soil matrix. As a pretreatment step, a shaking table was used for physical separation of soil to remove bullet residues while fractionating the contaminated soils into different sizes. The most effective separation and fractionation were achieved at vibration velocity of 296 rpm/min, the table slope of 7.0°, and the separating water flow rate of 23 L/min. The efficiency of ensuing soil washing process for LCS was maximized by using 0.5% HCl with the soil:washing solution mixing ratio of 1:3 for 1 hr treatment. On the contrary, HCS was most effectively remediated by using 1.0% HCl with the same soil:solution mixing ratio for 3 hr. This work demonstrated that the combined use of physical separation and soil washing could be a viable option to remediate soils highly contaminated with heavy metals.

Considering six screen matrix to select an optimum remediation method for the Kunsan military base contaminated with petroleum oil, the following order was obtained: landfarming > biopile > soil washing > thermal desorption = incineration. When the landfarming method was applied for the remediation of 2,250 $m^3$ soil contaminated with petroleum oil ranging from 500 to 2,404 mg/kg as TPH, contamination level decreased below target concentration 450 mg/kg after 20~42 days depending on the initial contamination. From the evaluation of case studies of landfarming, it is suggested that ratty-truss or single-arch structure is suitable in the landfarming plant for the treatment of large-scale contaminated soil requiring long period of remediation. But, vinyl-house structure is suitable in the landfarming plant for the treatment of small-scale contaminated soil requiring short period of remediation. Therefore vinyl-house structure is recommended in the remediation of contaminated soil less than 5,000 $m^3$ requiring within 1 year of remediation period but ratty-truss or single-arch structure is recommended for the remediation of contaminated soil more than 5,000 $m^3$.

본 연구에서는 철도 윤활유 유래 오염토양을 정화하기 위해 토양세척방법, 화학적 산화법, 초음파 추출법의 타당성을 연구하였다. 세척제로는 tergitol이 사용되었으며, 세척실험은 보조용매인 iso-propyl alcohol을 사용하여 진행되었다. Tergitol이 디젤오염토양의 세척에는 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있으나, 윤활유 오염토양의 세척에는 효과적이지 못했다. iso-propyl alcohol을 보조용매로 사용한 경우 계면활성제의 토양 흡착을 증가시켜 오히려 세척효율이 감소하였다. 화학적 산화방법은 윤활유의 약 30% 정도만 제거할 수 있었다. 화학적 산화처리후 계면활성제에 의한 토양세척을 통해 약 16-17%의 추가적인 윤활유의 세척효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 초음파는 토양세척의 효과를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 TPH 오염 철도 토양의 오염원에 따라 다른 방법을 적용하야 한다.

오염토양의 현장정화에 있어서 지반 및 오염물질의 물성치는 정화에 소요되는 시간과 함께 매우 중요한 고려사항이다. Gabr 등(1996)은 연직배수재가 설치된 오염지반에서 시 공간적 변화에 따른 초기오염농도에 대한 오염농도비($C/C_0$)를 구하는 식을 유도하였다. 본 연구에서는 Gabr 등이 유도한 식의 전산모형 FLUSH1을 이용하여 오염지반 흙의 유효입경, 간극률, 형상계수, 밀도, 지반의 온도와 오염물질의 단위중량 및 점성계수가 오염정화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 시 공간적 변화에 따른 오염농도비($C/C_0$)를 분석 하였다. 분석결과 연직배수재가 설치된 오염지반에서 정화에 크게 영향을 미치는 인자는 오염지반 흙입자의 유효입경인 것으로 나타났으며, 그 다음으로 오염물질의 점성, 오염지반 흙의 간극율, 형상계수, 지반의 온도, 오염물질의 단위중량, 흙의 밀도 순으로 분석되었다. 오염지반 흙의 밀도는 오염정화에 미치는 영향이 아주 작은 것으로 나타났다.
