Persulfate (PS) activated with nanosized zero-valent iron (NZVI) was tested as a reagent to remove phenol from groundwater. Batch degradation experiments indicated that NZVI/PS molar ratios between 1 : 2 and 1 : 5 were appropriate for complete removal of phenol, and that the time required for complete removal varied with different PS and NZVI dosages. Chloride ions up to 100 mM enhanced the phenol oxidation rate, and nitrate of any concentration up to 100 mM did not significantly affect the oxidation rate. NZVI showed greater performance than ferrous iron did as an activator for PS. A by-product was formed along with phenol degradation but subsequently was completely degraded, which showed the potential to attain mineralization with the NZVI/PS system. Tests with radical quenchers indicated that sulfate radicals were a predominant radical. The results of this study suggest that NZVI is a promising activator of PS for treating contaminated groundwater.

To know the occurrence and distribution of MTBE in groundwater, the analysis of groundwater around petroleum spill area was executed. The groundwaters of the 4 study sites are severely contaminated with MTBE and has the highest values of 650mg/L. The plume length of MTBE is longer than that of BTEX in D site and it is caused by the high solubility and low sorption capacities of MTBE.

본 연구에서는 광주 본촌분지를 대상으로 지하수의 오염현황을 분석하고, 수문지질구조와 수두의 분포 그리고 지하수의 수화학적 조성으로부터 오염기구를 검토하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 분지의 수두분포는 대체적으로 지형면을 반영하고 있으나, 과잉양수에 의한 지하수 유동계의 변형이 나타나고 있다. 농경지와 주거지가 혼재된 분지 북부에서는 Cl와 EC, Na, $NO_3$농도가 비교적 높았으며, 공업단지가 입지한 분지 남쪽에서는 $HCO_3$과 $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, Zn이 상대적으로 높은 농도를 나타냈다. Cl-과 N $O_3$농도에 의한 오염은 생활.공장폐수에 의한 것으로 추정된다. 그리고, Cl의 경우에는 특정 오염원을 기점으로 하천수계를 따라 오염물질이 확산되는 양상을 보이고 있으며, 오염원의 분포와 농도분포를 고려할 때 오염물질의 수평 분산보다는 공단지역의 과잉양수에 의한 지하수위의 저하로 수직이동이 더 크게 작용하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 이상으로부터 공단지역에서의 지하수 과잉양수가 지속될 경우, 지형면을 따라 형성된 유동계가 더욱 왜곡되고, 지하수위의 급격한 저하는 분지 북부지역에 까지 미치게 될 것이다. 더욱이 분지 북부의 생활 공장폐수에 의한 염수화 현상 또는 질소오염은 분지 전역으로 확산될 것은 자명하다.현상 또는 질소오염은 분지 전역으로 확산될 것은 자명하다.

산업에서 널리 사용되고 있는 Trichloroethylene (TCE)은 토양 및 지하수의 오염을 일으키며, 암 유발물질로 환경에서 반드시 제거해야 하는 물질이다. 본 연구에서는 미생물 고정화 담체를 이용한 TCE로 오염된 지하수 처리 시스템의 세균 군집구조를 조사하고, 우점종을 분리 및 동정하고 TCE 제거특성을 확인하였다. TCE로 오염된 지하수 처리공정의 세균군집을 16S rRNA 유전자 라이브러리의 염기서열 분석방법을 이용하여 조사한 결과, 주요 개체군은 BTEX 분해세균으로 알려진 Pseudomonas 속이었으며 Pseudomonas putida 그룹이 가장 우점하였다. Pseudomonas putida 그룹의 우점은 높은 toluene과 TCE의 농도에서 기인한 것으로 생각된다. TCE로 오염을 제거하기 위한 미생물 반응기에서 toluene과 TCE 분해 세균을 분리 배양하였으며 Pseudomonas sp. DHC8로 명명하였다. 형태학적 특징, 생리 생화학적 특징, 16S rRNA 유전자 염기서열분석 결과 DHC8 균주는 P. putida 그룹에 속하는 것으로 확인되었다. Pseudomonas sp. DHC8을 이용하여 TCE (0.83 mg/L)와 toluene (60.61 mg/L)에 대해 분해실험을 실시하였을 때 12.5시간 동안 TCE는 72.3%, toluene은 100.0% 제거되었다. 또한, TCE와 toluene의 제거속도는 각각 0.02 ${\mu}mol/g$-DCW/h와 2.89 ${\mu}mol/g$-DCW/h였다. 본 연구 결과는 TCE의 생물정화를 위한 반응기의 최대 효율을 유지하기 위한 노력에 도움이 될 것이다.

The objectives of this study were to calculate the radius of influence (ROI) of well for an air-sparging (AS)/soil vapor extraction (SVE) system and to evaluate the applicability of the system applied for the remediation of the petroleum contaminated rail site. For air permeability test, three monitoring wells were installed at a location of 1.3 m, 2.3 m, 3.0 m from the extraction well. And the pressure of each monitoring well was measured by extracting air from the extraction well with the pressure and flow of $(-)2,600mmH_2O$ and $1.58m^3/min$. The ROI for an extraction well was calculated as 4.31 m. Air was injected into the injection well with the pressure and flow of $3,500mmH_2O$ and $0.6m^3/min$ to estimate the radius of influence for oxygen transfer. Oxygen concentrations of air from three monitoring wells were measured. The ROI of an injection well for oxygen transfer was calculated as 3.46 m. The 28 extraction wells and 19 injection wells were installed according to the ROI calculated. The AS/SVE system was operated eight hours a day for five months. The rail site was contaminated with the petroleum and concentrations of benzene, toluene, and xylene were over the 'Worrisome Standard' of the 'Soil Environment Conservation Act'. The contaminated area was estimated as $732m^2$ and contaminants were dispersed up to (-)3 m from the ground. During the operation period, soil samples were collected from 5 points and analyzed periodically. With the AS/SVE system operation, concentrations of benzene, toluene, and xylene were decreased from 7.5 mg/kg to 2.0 mg/kg, from 32.0 mg/kg to 23.0 mg/kg, from 35.5 mg/kg to 23.0 mg/kg, respectively. The combined AS/SVE system applied to the rail site contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) exhibited a high applicability. But the concentration of contaminants in soil were fluctuated due to the heterogeneous of soil condition. Also the effect of the remediation mechanisms was not clearly identified.

This study reports a surfactant-enhanced in-situ remediation treatment at a test site which is located in a hilly terrain. The leakage oils from a storage tank situated on the top of the hill contaminated soils and groundwater in the lower elevation. Sixteen vertical injection wells (11 m deep) were installed at the top of the hill to introduce 0.1-0.5 vol.% of non-ionic Tween-80 surfactant. The contaminated area that required remediation treatment was about $1,650\;m^2$. Two cycles of injecting surfactant solution followed by water were repeated over approximately 7.5 months: first cycle with 0.5 month of surfactant injection followed by 3 months of water injection, and second cycle with 1 month of surfactant followed by 3 months of water injection. The seasonal fluctuation in groundwater table was also considered in the selection of periods for surfactant and water injection. The results showed that the initial Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) concentration of 1,041 mg/kg (maximum 3,605 mg/kg) was reduced significantly down to 76.6 mg/kg in average. After 2nd surfactant injection process finished, average TPH concentration of soils was reduced to 7.5% compared to initial concentration. Also, average BTEX concentration of soils was reduced to 10.8%. This resultes show that the surfactant enhanced in-situ remediation processes can be applicable to LNAPL contaminated site in field scale.

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).

Germination tests were conducted to determine the practical concentration levels at which plants can reproduce naturally during the phytoremediation of soils contaminated with a high concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals. The effects of humic acids on plant growth and soil physicochemical properties were also investigated. The results show that phytoremediation can be applied in soils contaminated by multiple contaminants at the former soil contamination potential level of Korean soil quality standards considering successful natural reproduction. It was observed that germination rates of Helianthus annuus and Festuca arundinacea were high after all treatments, and transplantation was more appropriate for Phragmites communis in phytoremediation. Humic acids had a positive effect on the growth of both aboveground and belowground biomass of herbaceous plants. Growth inhibition by multiple contaminants is more severe in the case of aboveground biomass. Germination and growth tests suggest that Helianthus annuus is a suitable phytoremediation plant for soils contaminated with a high concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals. The addition of humic acids also caused changes in the physicochemical properties of contaminated soils. An increase in the carbon and nitrogen content due to the addition of humic acids and a correlation between cation exchange capacity(CEC) and the organic matter content were observed.

본 연구에서는 증류수와 인공지하수, 그리고 지하수를 대상으로 오존의 분해거동(오존의 자가분해, pH의 영향, 용해도)과 오존산화공정에 의한 디젤의 분해(디젤의 분해, TCE와 PCE의 분해, 수산화라디칼 scavenger의 영향, pH의 영향, 오존/과산화수소의 영향)를 조사하였다. 증류수와 지하수내에서 오존의 자가분해는 모두 2차 반응속도식을 보였고, 증류수(반감기 37.5 분)에서보다 지하수(반감기 14.7분)에서 훨씬 빠르게 오존이 분해되었으며, 알칼리성 조건하에서 두 액상에서 모두 오존의 분해는 촉진되었다. 또한 오존산화공정의 사용은 TCE와 PCE, 그리고 디젤에 대해 높은 산화처리속도를 나타내었다. 비록 지하수내에 존재하는 hydroxyl radical scavenger는 디젤의 분해에서 억제제로 작용하였지만, 높은 pH조건과 과산화수소의 첨가는 지하수내에서 디젤을 분해시키는 데 중요한 촉진제로서 작용하였다. 그러므로 오존산화공정은 디젤로 오염된 지하수를 처리하는 데 효과적으로 적용될 것이라 판단된다.
