  • 투수성 포장은 강우를 노반으로 침투시켜 지표면 유출량 감소와 수질 개선을 기대하기 위한 기술이다. 수질 개선효과의 증대를 위해 투수성 포장 내에는 필터층을 추가하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 투수성 포장의 구성 요소인 여재 필터의 성능을 알아보기 위해 석탄 저회-규사 여재에 대한 투수성능과 입자상 물질 제거 효율을 분석하였으며, 석탄저회와 규사를 기본 재료로 하는 5개의 여재를 대상으로 하였고, 입자상 물질로는 60㎛ 이하의 입자를 사용하였다. 순수 규사 시료 혹은 순수 석탄저회 시료는 평균적으로 약 70%의 입자상 물질 제거효율을 보였으나, 혼합 시료의 경우 제거 효율이 약 90%로서, 비점오염 저감시설에 대한 저감율 권고치인 80%를 상회하는 것으로 나타났다. 향후 현장 검증을 통한 투수성 포장 내 여재 필터 성능에 대한 검증 후 도로 시설 혹은 독립적인 여과 장치로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.

  • 염소로 소독된 음용수에서 수백 ng/L의 농도까지 검출되는 3-chloro-4-(dichloromethyl)-5-hydroxy-2(5H)-furanone(MX)를 시료 농축 후 액-액 추출(LLE), 메틸 유도체화 및 GC-MS로 정량 분석하였다. 4 L의 물 시료를 감압회전증발기를 사용해 30 ℃에서 0.4 L로 농축하였다. 물 중의 MX는 ethyl acetate(100 mL × 2)를 용매로 사용하여 추출하였으며, 추출액 중 MX는 10 % H2SO4 in methanol로 methyl 유도체를 만들었다. MX의 회수율은 73.8 %이었으며, 이는 수지 흡착법의 38.1 %보다 높았다. 정량한계와 반복성(RSD)은 각각 10 ng/L와 2.2 %로 추정되었다. 이 결과는 시간이 더 많이 소요되는 수지 흡착법의 대체 방법으로 LLE가 사용될 수 있다는 것을 보여 주었다.

  • This study compared FTIR with XRD method for the analysis of quartz by % recovery, coefficient of variation (CV) and influence of the interference. the results were as the following. 1. In FTIR method, the coefficient of determination ($r^2$) was 0.9998 in a calibration curve of $695\;cm^{-1}$, and the limit of detection was $4.9{\mu}g/sample$. 2. The highest recovery was $799\;cm^{-1}$ (98.2%). 3. The CVpooled of the FTIR method was approximately 10% in three wave numbers. 4. The analysis of qualitative and quantitative for quartz is difficult with mixed cristobalite and iron oxide. 5. In XRD method with rotating sample holder and LynxEye detector, the coefficient of determination was 0.9996 in a calibration curve, and the limit of detection was $5.9{\mu}g/sample$. 6. The recovery and CV pooled were 104.3%, and 11 %, respectively. 7. In muffle furnace ashing, the quartz weight decreased to 34% when the maximum weight of the iron oxide was more than eight times. In conclusion, the accuracy (% recovery) and precision (CV) of FTIR and XRD method for analyzing $\alpha$-quartz were similar. FTIR method was a disadvantage for sample matrix because it indicates possibility of interference. However, XRD method distinguished specific crystalline forms of silica, and the majority of silicate minerals. In addition, XRD method recommend filter dissolution to pretreatment method.

  • The effect of silver ion solution on the growth of Microcystis aeruginosa UTEX 2388 (cyanobacterium) and Chlorella sp. KCTC AG20136 (green alga) was investigated using separated and mixed culture in filtered natural water and BG11 medium. In separated culture, M. aeruginosa UTEX 2388 and Chlorella sp. KCTC AG20136 were found to be sensitive to 0.01 and 0.1 mg L$^{-1}$ of silver ion, respectively. Also, the silver ion concentrations for the growth inhibition of M. aeruginosa UTEX 2388 and Chlorella sp. KCTC AG20136 in the mixed culture were same in separated culture. Cyanobacteria were more sensitive to the silver ion solution than green algae. In bloom sample, the minimal inhibition concentration of silver ion solution for the low Chl-${\alpha}$ sample (110$\sim$190 ${\mu}g$ L$^{-1}$) and high Chl-${\alpha}$ sample (1,500$\sim$1,900 ${\mu}g$ L$^{-1}$) was about 0.1 and 3.0 mg L$^{-1}$, respectively. The silver ion concentration for the inhibition of algal bloom sample was affected by the algal biomass. In order to use silver ion solution for the control of algal bloom, the silver ion concentration must be determined in consideration of a minimal effect on the environment.

  • 검출한계에 대한 기본개념을 기초로 백그라운드 측정시간과 시료측정시간을 고려하였고, 환경시료중에서 육상시료(하천토, 표층토양, 식수, 지하수, 지표수, 솔잎, 쑥) 분석에서 백그라운드 계측시간과 시료 측정시간의 변화에 따른 MDA 값들을 비교하였다. 물시료 분석결과를 살펴보면 대부분 시료에서 불검출로 나타났으며, 육상시료 분석결과 대부분의 시료에서 "과학기술부고시 제 2008-28호"의 검출하한치 미만으로 측정되었으나, 일부 시료에서는 인공방사성핵종인 $^{137}Cs$이 검출되었다. 이는 과거 50.60년대 행해졌던 대기권 핵실험에 의한 낙진 및 소련의 체르노빌 원전사고 등에 의한 영향으로 우리나라뿐만 아니라 전 세계적으로 검출되고 있는 수준이다. 또한 $^{137}Cs$의 동위원소이며, 상대적으로 반감기가 짧은 $^{134}Cs$가 모든 시료에 대해서 검출되지 않는 것으로 보아 원전운영에 의한 영향이 아님을 알 수 있다.

  • Indiscriminate disposal of waste and citation of open dumpsites are some of the key factors affecting the various soil geotechnical properties. Atterberg limit and consolidation tests were conducted to determine the effects of two open waste dumpsites (Uselu Market and New Benin) on geotechnical properties of their underlying soils. Soil sample collected from Uselu Market dumpsite in Benin City metropolis showed slightly lower hydraulic conductivity (K) of $1.0{\times}10^{-6}$ with plasticity index of 18.53% compared to sample collected 1.6 m from the same dumpsite which had high K value of $2.42{\times}10^{-3}$ with plasticity index of 6.9%. Soil sample collected from New Benin dumpsite in Benin City metropolis showed slightly lower K of $1.45{\times}10^{-6}$ with plasticity index of 13.8% than sample collected 1.6 m from the same dumpsite which had high K value of $2.14{\times}10^{-2}$ with plasticity index of 6.0%. X-ray florescent analyser (X-MET 7000) and direct soil pH meter were used to determine the composition of the aforementioned soil samples. The result of samples collected from both dumpsites indicated a low hydraulic conductivity compared to samples collected 1.6 m from both dumpsites. Also, the chemical composition and pH of both dumpsite underlying soils indicated high level of soil contaminants with pH of 3.3 and 3.5 which is very acidic unlike pH of other samples which were in the neutral range (6.8-7.1). Hence, a liner is recommended for all dumpsites or engineered landfill systems to mitigate against the challenges associated with open waste dumping system in the environment.

  • There is growing evidence for the dependence of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) luminosities on the environments. The origin of this correlation, however, is under debate. In order to explore the physical origin of the trend in detail, we analyze SN Ia light-curves by combining a sample of 1231 SNe Ia over a wide redshift range (0.01 < z < 1.37) in various SN surveys and employing two independent light-curve fitters of SALT2 and MLCS2k2. Although SALT2 is the most widely used fitter in the SN community, MLCS2k2 has a novelty in the context of an investigation of the luminosity evolution of SNe Ia. For this reason we use both fitters and analyze them separately. We also determine a stellar mass and a star formation rate (SFR) for a sample of ~600 host galaxies. In addition, because recent low-redshift studies suggest that this dependence manifests itself most strongly when using the local SFR at the SN location, we introduce a new method to infer the local environments by restricting the SN Ia sample in globally star-forming host galaxies to a low-mass host galaxy subset (${\leq}10^{10}M_{\odot}$). We find that SNe Ia in low-mass and star-forming host galaxies are fainter than those in high-mass and passive hosts, after light-curve corrections. Especially, for the first time in host studies, we show that SNe Ia in locally star-forming environments are $0.081{\pm}0.018$ mag fainter ($4.5{\sigma}$) than those in locally passive environments from the sample including SNe at the high-redshift range. Considering the significant difference in the mean stellar population age between these environments, the result would suggest that the origin of the environmental dependence is the luminosity evolution of SNe Ia.

  • 고온성박테리아를 이용하여 섬아연석으로부터 유용금속이온을 효과적으로 용출시키기 위하여 $42^{\circ}C$, $52^{\circ}C$, $62^{\circ}C$에서 미생물용출실험을 각각 수행하였다. 이때 미생물용출실험이 진행되는 10일 동안, 용출액의 pH는 2.40에서 2.5 범위를 유지하였으며 미생물 용출실험이 종료될 때까지 막대 모양의 박테리아들이 섬아연석 표면에 부착되어 있는 것이 계속해서 관찰되었다. 용출온도를 $42^{\circ}C$, $52^{\circ}C$, $62^{\circ}C$로 증가시키면, 비교시료에서 용출 함량이 증가되는 금속은 Zn과 Pb이고, 박테리아 용출 시료에서는 Fe 용출 양이 증가하였다. 용출 온도를 $42^{\circ}C$, $52^{\circ}C$, $62^{\circ}C$로 증가시켰을 때, Zn 이온은 비교시료에서 보다 박테리아 용출 시료에서 각각 9.5배, 2.8배, 2.9배 이상으로 높게 용출되었고, Pb 이온은 비교시료에서 보다 박테리아 용출 시료에서 각각 14.8배, 7.4 배, 3.8배 이상으로 높게 용출되었다. Fe 이온의 비교시료에서 용출 온도를 $42^{\circ}C$, $52^{\circ}C$, $62^{\circ}C$로 증가시켜도 전혀 용출되지 않았지만, 박테리아 Fe 함량이 온도에 비례하여 증가하였다.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study is to suggest an optimal method by comparing the analysis methods of work environment measurement datasets including left-censored data where one or more measurements are below the limit of detection (LOD). Methods: A computer program was used to generate left-censored datasets for various combinations of censoring rate (1% to 90%) and sample size (30 to 300). For the analysis of the censored data, the simple substitution method (LOD/2), β-substitution method, maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method, Bayesian method, and regression on order statistics (ROS)were all compared. Each method was used to estimate four parameters of the log-normal distribution: (1) geometric mean (GM), (2) geometric standard deviation (GSD), (3) 95th percentile (X95), and (4) arithmetic mean (AM) for the censored dataset. The performance of each method was evaluated using relative bias and relative root mean squared error (rMSE). Results: In the case of the largest sample size (n=300), when the censoring rate was less than 40%, the relative bias and rMSE were small for all five methods. When the censoring rate was large (70%, 90%), the simple substitution method was inappropriate because the relative bias was the largest, regardless of the sample size. When the sample size was small and the censoring rate was large, the Bayesian method, the β-substitution method, and the MLE method showed the smallest relative bias. Conclusions: The accuracy and precision of all methods tended to increase as the sample size was larger and the censoring rate was smaller. The simple substitution method was inappropriate when the censoring rate was high, and the β-substitution method, MLE method, and Bayesian method can be widely applied.
