Changes in the characteristics of dissolved organic matter was studied at selected stations in the Nakdong river basin using physical and chemical methods. Characteristics of dissolved organic matters were analysed and assessed. Production of disinfection byproducts were also investigated. 1. Result of relatedness study among each items of analyses showed that relatedness on BOD values were highest with cattle excrement treatment facilities where there is no synthetic organic materials and relatedness on $COD_{Mn}$ were highest at the mainstream Nakdong river. In case of $COD_{Cr}$ (which has more oxidative power than $COD_{Mn}$), the values were higher in the sidestreams indicating the higher content of recalcitrant compounds. The relatedness values for the $UV_{254}$ also showed higher values in the sidestreams and treatment facilities than mainstream indicating the presence of organic aromatic compounds. 2. Ratio of DOC on total organic carbon were higher in the mainstream which is attributable to the influent particulate organic materials produced by agricultural activities. The values were 10-15% higher in the mainstream compared with sidestreams. 3. Result of biodegradability test indicate that concentrations of recalcitrant DOC were higher in the sidestreams than in the mainstream. The values of recalcitrant DOC were higher with the forest stream indicating the effect of soil oriented humic substances. 4. Result of THM production test carried out at 10 stations in the Nakdong river show that $CHCl_3$ was detected with the highest value and the value was highest at Waekwan station.

The objective of this study was to clarify the characteristics of the removed micropollutant since the breakthrough of adsorption ability was occurred in biological activated carbon(BAC) process. The removal efficiency of DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) was 36 % in the breakthrough of BAC occurred by NOM (Natural Organic Matter). The most of removal DOC was found out the adsorbable and biodegradable DOC (A&BDOC). But it was not clear to remove by any mechanism because A&BDOC have simultaneously the adsorption of activated carbon and biodegradation by microorganism in BAC. The removal of bromophenol was examined with BAC and rapid sand filter, for investigation of DOC removal mechanism in the breakthrough of BAC. In this experiment, BAC filter has been operated for 20 months for the treatment of reservoir water. The BAC filter was already exhausted by NOM. Bromophenol, adsorbable and refractory matter, was completely removed by BAC filter. Therefore, it might be removed by the adsorption in BAC. Adsorption isotherms of bromophenol were compared to two BACs which was preloaded with 500 daltons and 3,000 daltons of NOM. BAC preloaded with 3,000 daltons of NOM was not decreased to the adsorbability of bromophenol but BAC preloaded with 500 daltons of NOM was greatly decreased to it. These result indicated that NOM of low molecular weight can be removed by adsorption after a long period of operation and the breakthrough by NOM in BAC. Therefore, micropollutants might be removed through adsorption by saturated BAC.

A comprehensive fractionation technique was applied to a set of water samples obtained along drinking water treatment process with ozonation and biological activated carbon (BAC) process to obtain detailed profiles of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and to evaluate the haloacetic acid (HAA) formation potentials of these DOM fractions. The results indicated that coagulation-sedimentation-sand filtration treatment showed limited ability to remove hydrophilic fraction (28%), while removal of hydrophobic and transphilic fraction were 57% and 40%, respectively. And ozonation and BAC treatment showed limited ability to remove hydrophobic fractions (6%), while removal of hydrophilic and transphilic fractions were 25% and 18%. The haloacetic acid formation potential (HAAFP)/dissolved organic carbon (DOC) of hydrophilic fraction was the highest along the treatment train and HAAFP/DOC of hydrophilic fraction was higher than hydrophobic and transphilic fraction as 23%~30%, because of better removal for hydrophobic fraction both in concentration and reactivity.

In this paper, the removal characteristics of dissolved organic carbon (DOCs) by micro bubble ozonation process and $O_3/UV$ process were comparatively studied. In the point of DOC removing reaction coefficient, micro bubble ozonation system and $O_3/UV$ process had not significant difference, $0.0120sec^{-1}$ and $0.0141sec^{-1}$. Therefore micro bubble ozonation process is more suitable for tertiary treatment of sewage in the point of installation and maintenance cost-reducing. The optimum ozone injection rate was 2.0 g $O_3/g$ DOC and HRT was 3 min for the micro bubble ozonation process. The removal efficiency of DOC and SUVA in micro bubble ozonation system was 32.8% and 58.3% respective. Biological aerated filter (BAF) process was installed to remove soluble organic material increased by micro bubble ozonation system. And the effluent BOD of BAF was below 1.0 mg/L. In the view of cost-effectiveness, $O_3/BAF$ process was more profitable than $O_3/UV/BAF$ process for tertiary treatment of sewage. In order to nitrify ammonia in the BAF process completely, $NH_4{^+}-N$ concentration in the influent water of BAF should be designed considering low water temperature in the winter season.

This survey was conducted to obtain basic data about organic matter such as BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand), COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) and TOC (Total Organic Carbon) in agricultural water in Gyeongnam province. BOD and COD are currently used for water quality indices, but adoption of TOC is being suggested. The surface water samples were collected at 39 locations in Gyeongnam province in April, July and October. Average concentrations of BOD, COD, DOC and TOC were 1.6, 3.3, 5.3 and $5.7mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively. In July, average concentrations of BOD and COD were 2.4 and $3.9mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively, showing these values were higher than other months. Average concentrations of TOC in April, July and October were 4.8, 7.4 and $4.8mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively. This suggested that the highest value of TOC was in July. Average decomposition efficiencies for BOD-C/TOC and COD-C/TOC were 11.4 and 23.9%, respectively. Correlation coefficient of TOC and DOC was higher by 0.995, whereas that of TOC and COD was lower by 0.763. Especially, TOC and DOC were highly related than others.

경제성을 고려한 새로운 PAC 선정방법을 적용하고자 상수원수 내 MIB와 유기물 제거를 위한 PAC 흡착실험을 수행하였다. PAC 투입량이 증가함에 따라 MIB 제거율은 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 석탄계 PAC가 목탄계 PAC에 비해 MIB 제거율이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. DOC 및 $UV_{254}$의 제거율은 PAC와 원수 종류에 따라 큰 차이를 보이지는 않았으나, MIB 제거율에 비해 떨어지는 결과를 보였다. MIB, DOC, 그리고 $UV_{254}$ 제거율은 실험에 사용한 PAC들 중에서 P-1000 PAC가 가장 좋았다. EEM 결과에 의하면 모든 시료에 존재하는 대부분의 유기물은 Fulvic산과 유사한 물질인 것으로 판명되었다. 특히, PAC 접촉 이후 대상 시료에 존재하는 유기물 중에서 Fulvic산과 유사한 유기물, Humic과 유사한 유기물, 그리고 SMP와 유사한 유기물 등이 줄어드는 경향을 보였다. 경제성을 고려한 PAC 선정방법에 의해 MCI 값이 가장 낮은 P-1000이 가장 적합한 PAC로 선정되었다. 최종적으로 선정하기에 앞서 PAC의 효율성 및 취급용이성, PAC의 입자크기 및 분포, 그리고 DOC 농도에 따른 PAC 투입비용 등도 고려해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

습지는 식생과 수위 정도에 따라 다양한 물리 화학적 특성을 보이는 생태계로 작은 공간내에서도 다양한 생지화학적 반응이 일어날 수 있다. 특히, 용존유기탄소와 무기질소는 습지 내 생물학적 반응 정도를 결정하는 주요 인자로 탄소와 질소의 동태를 파악하고, 습지 환경의 변화 즉, 식생과 수위 및 계절변화에 따른 시공간적 패턴을 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 실험을 위해 인공적으로 건설, 운용되고 있는 인공습지에서 식생유무와 수심정도, 계절에 따라 토양시료를 채취, 분석하였다. 그 결과, 용존유기탄소와 질산염의 함량이 식생이 있는 지역에서 모두 높게 나타났다. 용존탄소는 식생이 있는 경우, 수심이 깊은 지역에서는 평균 $0.37mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$, 수심이 낮은 지역에서는 $0.31mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$로 나타나 수위 정도에 따라 차이를 보였다. 이는 식생에서 제공되는 뿌리 삼출물의 증가와, 미생물의 유기물 분해작용의 복합적인 영향에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 반면, 질산염 함량은 수심에 따라 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았으며, 이는 식생의 유무가 수심보다 질산염의 동태에 주요 영향을 미치는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 본 연구결과, 습지의 환경조건, 특히 수심이나 식생의 유무에 따라 탄소와 질소의 양적, 질적인 차이가 나타나며, 이는 습지 내에서 진행되는 생지화학적 반응의 시공간적 패턴에 영향을 미칠 것으로 보인다.

Sedimentary organic matter, exposed to continental surficial environment, reacts with oxygen supplied from the atmosphee and forms carbon-containing oxidation products. Knowledge of the rate and mechanisms of sedimentary organic matter weathering is important because it is one of the major controls on atmospheric oxygen level through geologic time. Under the abiological conditions, the oxidation rate of coal organic matter by molecular oxygen is enhanced by the increase of oxygen concentration and temperature. At ambient temperature and pressure, aqueous coal oxidation results in the formation of dissolved $CO_2$ dissolved organic carbon and solid oxidation products which are all quantitatively significant reaction products. The effects of pH, ultraviolet light, and microbial activity on the weathering of sedimentary organic matter are poorly contrained. Based on the results of geochmical and environmental studies, it is believed that the photochemical reaction should play an important role in the decomposition and oxidation of sedimentary organic matter removed from the weathering profile. At higher pH conditions, the production rate of DOC can be accelerated due to base catalysis. These high molecular weight oranic matter can react with man-made pollutants such as heavy metal ions via adsorption/desorption or ion exchange reactions. The effect of microbial activity on the oxidative weathering of sedimentary organic matter is poorly understood and remains to be studied.

본 연구는 humic acid 및 bromide를 함유한 상수 원수에 오존 처리를 수행함에 있어 수질 특성 및 공정조건에 따른 bromate 및 formaldehyde 의 생성을 고찰하였다 . 회분식 실험장치를 이용하여 오존의 주입농도, DOC 농도, bromide 농도, pH, 알칼리도 및 반응 시간을 변화시키면서 오존처리 시 생성되는 대표적인 부산물인 bromate 및 formaldehyde의 거동을 파악하였다. 본 연구에서 검토된 영향 인자 중 수중의 pH조건은 bromate 및 formaldehyde의 생성에 가장 중요한 인자로 나타났다. DOC(dissolved organic carbon) 농도가 증가할수록 bromate 생성은 감소하였고 formaldehyde 의 생성은 증가하였다. 오존처리를 통해 UV254 는 효율적으로 감소되었고, UV254의 감소율 및 오존 농도는 선형 관계를 나타냈다.
