This paper was examined the physical characteristics of floc density of suspended fine particles with varying cohesiveness. The analysis of floc density was performed in a small annular flume with a free water surface under different bed shear stresses and ion addition. Fine-grained silica was used as model material, as it is the main mineral components of clay that affects sedimentation. It was concluded that floc density depended on increasing the bed shear stress, the salinity and pH value. Floc density decreased with increasing the salinity in still water and floc size, whereas the opposite was true when increasing the bed shear stress. Also, it increased at pH6.8 more than at pH4.2 when increasing the bed shear stress in the range from 0.0086 to $0.0132N/m^2$.

Removal rates of $PO_4-P$ and TP in a free water surface wetland system were investigated. The system was established in 2008 on a floodplain in the middle reach of the Gwangju Stream flowing through Gwangju City. Its dimensions were 46 meters in length and 5 meters in width. Two year old Typha angustifloria L. growing in pots were planted on half of the area and Zizania latifolia Turcz on the other half in 2008. Stream water was funneled into the wetlands by gravity flow, and its effluent was discharged back into the stream. The influent volume was controlled by valves and water depth was adjusted by wires. Volume and water quality of inflow and outflow were analyzed from January to December in 2010. Inflow into the system averaged approximately $710m^3/day$ and hydraulic residence time was about 1.5 hours. Average influent and effluent $PO_4-P$ concentration were 0.144 and 0.103mg/L, respectively, and $PO_4-P$ abatement amounted to 28.6%. Influent and effluent TP concentration averaged 0.333 and 0.262mg/L, respectively, and TP retention reached to 20.7%.$PO_4-P$ removal rate(%) during plant growing season(31.448) was significantly high(p<0.001) when compared with that during plant non-growing season(25.829). TP abatement rate(%) during plant growing season(27.230) was also significantly high(p<0.001) when compared with that of the non-growing season(14.856). Major phosphorous removals in the system resulted from adsorption of phosphorous in the litter-soil layers; sedimentation of particulate phosphorous and Ca, Al, Fe bounded phosphates; and absorption of phosphorous by emergent plants. The adsorption and sedimentation occurred throughout the year, however, the absorption took place during plant growing season. This resulted in higher removals of $PO_4-P$ and TP during plant growing season.

This paper is to understand the settling properties of cohesive sediments under effects of ions in turbulent flow. The experiments were conducted using a miniature annular flume(mini flume) with a free water surface. Silica was used as sediment of experiment. The suspended concentrations were measured by using a CCD-Camera. Settling of silica($SiO_2$) was allowed to occur under various shear stresses in a concentration of 7g/L. At condition of pH 4.2 and high NaCl concentration, the floc size D of silica was larger than D at condition of pH6.8 with the bed shear stress increasing. The settling velocity $W_s$ of silica was higher at condition of 10g NaCl/L than $W_s$ at condition of pH4.2. Comparison of measured concentration-time curves and concentration-time curves calculated by this study showed similar tendency in flow under effects of ions.

This study investigated the flow characteristics in an annular flume with a free water surface using the Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter(ADV) in the laboratory. The flow was driven by the rotation of the inner cylinder in a way designed not to interfere with flocculation of cohesive sediments. The effect of the inner cylinder for the longitudinal velocities showed highest near the moving boundary and decreased towards the outer wall. At the lower longitudinal velocity, there was a peak in turbulent kinetic energy near the bed, whereas it moved upward to with increasing of the velocity. The longitudinal velocities estimated using the power law were in good agreement with the measured values than the values predicted by the log-law with roughness lengths. The average friction velocities evaluated by Reynolds shear stress were smaller than the values calculated using the log-law and power law when increasing the longitudinal velocity.

Boknae Bio-park is a free water surface constructed wetlands to remove non-point source pollution. Boknae Bio-park constructed wetlands (CWs) consist of forebay, wetlands ($1^{st}$, $2^{nd}$, and $3^{rd}$ wetlands), and micropool. The concentrations of BOD, SS, T-N and T-P in inflow were 1.87-4.23, 5.2-24.0, 4.94-15.59 and $0.10-0.75mg\;L^{-1}$ in Boknae Bio-park CWs from April to December in 2008, respectively. The removal rates of BOD, SS, T-N and T-P in Boknae Bio-park CWs were 26, 43, 62 and 83%, respectively. The removal rates of BOD and SS in the spring and summer were higher than those in other seasons. The removal rates of T-N and T-P on spring were slightly higher than those in other seasons. The amounts of pollutants removal in Boknae Bio-park CWs were higher in the order of forebay > wetlands > micropool for BOD, wetlands > forebay > micropool for SS and wetlands > forebay > micropool for T-N. The amount of T-P removal was not significant different in all areas.

To reduce non-point source pollutants in Juam Lake eco-wetlands, purification efficiencies of pollutants were investigated at three different systems. The constructed wetlands (CWs) consisted of A system, B system and C system. A system consisted of $1^{st}$ free water surface (FWS) CW, $2^{nd}$ FWS CW, $3^{rd}$ FWS CW, $4^{th}$ subsurface flow (SSF) CW and $5^{th}$ SSF CW. B system consisted of $1^{st}$ FWS CW, $2^{nd}$ FWS CW, $3^{rd}$ FWS CW, $4^{th}$ FWS CW and $5^{th}$ SSF CW. C system consisted of $1^{st}$ FWS CW, $2^{nd}$ FWS CW, $3^{rd}$ FWS CW, $4^{th}$ FWS CW and $5^{th}$ SSF CW. The concentrations of BOD, COD, SS, T-N and T-P in inflow ranged 0.20 ~ 0.91, 1.24 ~ 8.00, 0.60 ~ 8.60, 0.04 ~ 2.50 and $0.001{\sim}0.685mg\;L^{-1}$ from March to October in 2011, respectively. Removal rates of BOD, SS, T-N and T-P were high in Autumn, Spring, Spring and Summer, respectively. In A system, $1^{st}$ FWS CW, $2^{nd}$ FWS CW and $3^{rd}$ FWS CW were dominated by Leersia oryzoides. In B system, $1^{st}$ FWS CW, $3^{rd}$ FWS CW and $4^{th}$ FWS CW were dominated by Leersia oryzoides. In C system, $2^{nd}$ FWS CW and $3^{rd}$ FWS CW were dominated by Nymphaea teragona.

인공습지는 자연이 가진 정화기작을 인위적으로 증가시키기 위하여 조성한 자연기반해법에 해당한다. 인공습지는 습지 내 식물, 미생물, 토양 등의 상호기작에 의하여 오염물질이 제거된다. 인공습지의 오염물질저감효율은 시설의 규모와 유량, 유입물질의 부하량 수리학적 부하량, 체류시간 등의 영향을 받게 된다. 일반적으로 인공습지 적정 규모는 유역 및 기상인자의 특성과 조성목적에 고려하여 산정된다. 본 연구는 전국 35개 지역에 설치된 54개 인공습지를 선정하여 모니터링을 수행하였으며, 2011년부터 2018년에 설치된 시설이다. 54개 시설 중 도심지역에 13개, 농업지역 25개, 공업지역 3개, 상업지역 3개, 축산 10개가 설치되어있다. 습지형태는 Cell형 자유수면형 인공습지(Free Water Surface, Cell-FWS), 유로형(Flow) 자유수면형 인공습지(Cell-FWS), Cell과 Flow형이 결합된 Hybrid-FWS, 수직흐름형 인공습지(vertical flow constructed wetland)와 수평지하흐름형 인공습지(vertical flow constructed wetland)가 결합된 HYBIRD 형 습지로 구분된다. 연구결과, 일반적으로 SA/CA 비율이 클수록 오염물질의 저감효율은 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 오염 물질별 인공습지 규모를 비교할 경우 저감효율 60%에서 인공습지의 규모는 유기물>영양염류>입자상물질 순으로 나타났다. 목표 제거효율 60%에서 SA/CA 비는 BOD에서 약 3.2%, COD에서 2.5%, SS에서 1.9%, TN 2.5%, TP 2.3%로 나타났다. 입자상물질인 SS는 유기물 및 영양염류에 비하여 유역면적 대비 시설면적이 가장 적게 나타났으며, 유기물질 제거에 큰 시설규모가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 인공습지 설계시 유역 토지이용 및 강우특성을 고려하여 적정한 수질과 유량모니터링이 필요하며, 이를 토대로 목표 오염물질 선정이 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 농업지역의 최적화된 인공습지 위치는 임야가 20~30%, 밭이 20% 이하, 논이 10~50%를 포함하는 곳이 적정한 것으로 평가되었다. 도시지역 인공습지는 도시면적이 증가할수록 효율이 크게 변하지 않기에 가용위치가 적정한 위치로 평가된다. 인공습지의 효율은 유역의 세부 토지이용에 크게 의존하는 것으로 평가되었다. 따라서 인공습지 설계시 농업지역에서는 임야, 밭 및 논의 적정면적을 고려하여 인공습지 위치가 결정되어야 하는 것으로 나타났다.

The flora, vegetation structure and physico-chemical characteristics of surface sediment were investigated in Paksil-nup wetland of Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea in 1990~1998. Ranges of the surface sediment characteristics such as pH, conductivity, organic matter, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, exchangeable K, exchangeable Ca, exchangeable Mg, and exchangeable Na were 4.36~4.34, $19.0{\sim}1260.0\;{\mu}mho\;cm^{-1}$, 0.01~6.35%, 0.001~0.14%, 0.01~0.31 mg/l00g, 1.01~13.98 ppm, 16.75~143.80 ppm, 0.93~14.85 ppm and 0.21~3.86 ppm, respectively. Percentages of the particle size such as sand, silt, and clay were 13.0~93.3%, 5.4~71.7%, and 0.5~37.5%, respectively. The flora of the study area was composed of 72 families, 182 genera, 223 species, 36 varieties and 2 form or total 261 kinds, and those were 45 kinds of vascular hydrophytes and 216 kinds of vascular hygrophytes. The life form of vascular hydrophytes was classified as 27 kinds (60%) of emergent plants, 8 kinds (18%) of submerged plants, 6 kinds (13%) of free-floating plants and 4 kinds (9%) of floating-leaved plants, respectively. The importance value of Salix nipponica was highest as 123.78 in the shrub and tree layers, and that of Trapa japonica was highest as 16.69 in the herb layer. The vegetation type was divided into two groups according to the association analysis. The vegetation of the littoral zone was classified into 7 associations according to the cluster analysis based on the coverage data. These results showed significant differences with those of stand ordination by correspondence analysis based on the species composition and by PCA based on the sediment properties. Factors affecting the distribution of the vascular hydrophytes and hygrophytes were the gradient of particle size, altitude, and water depth.
