This study is about penetrability of Micro Cement(MC) used for ground improvement. In this study, the characteristics of chemical grouting such as solidification, penetrability were analyzed experimentally by changing permeability of ground, grain size and relative density of grout material. For evaluating applicability of grout material, solidification test and penetrability test were performed. From the results of the tests, effective solidification ratio and penetrability ratio of MC was each 75%, 86% to be excellent when ground permeability was in the range of 10$^{-2}$ and 10$^{-4}$ cm/sec. Otherwise, those of Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) were both lower than 50% to be poor. When penetrability of grout material is needed for improvement of dam foundation and soft ground, application of MC Is much superior to that of the other materials. The results of the grouting tests in the water flowing ground show that solidification effect of long gel-time grout material is excellent as injection pressure increases when groundwater velocity is relatively low. But when groundwater velocity is relatively high, solidification effect of long gel-time grout material is very poor because most grout materials are outflowed. Therefore, as groundwater velocity is high, effective solidification ratio of long gel-time grout material is better than that of short gel-time grout material, also penetration distance of long gel-time grout material is longer than that of short gel-time grout material.

Ground collapse may occur around the tunnel when the cavity caused by groundwater runoff cannot resist the surcharge load. Any cavities or subsidence must be managed to avoid dangerous situations by stabilizing the ground through appropriate remedial measures. Trench and trenchless grouting methods can generally be used for the cavity restoration. The trench method is difficult to properly control the injection range and may cause environmental problems due to grout leakage and damages to the adjacent structures due to grouting pressure. In this study, Membrane-grouting method (MGM) is proposed, which, can be an appropriate trenchless grouting method that fills the void tightly and effectively controls the injection range. This method can be an alternative to eliminating the influence of adjacent structures and environmental pollution by inserting a membrane into the cavity and filling the membrane with grout. The membrane blocks the outflow of grout. In addition, it is easy to control the injection pressure to avoid heaving failure. This paper investigates the principle and application of the MGM using a theoretical method, model test and numerical analysis.

The drag of the excess charge in an electrical double layer at the solid fluid interface due to water flow induces the streaming current, i.e., the streaming potential (SP). Here we introduce a sandbox experiment to study this hydroelectric coupling in case of a tracer test. An acrylic tank was filled up with homogeneous sand as a sand aquifer, and the upstream and downstream reservoirs were connected to the sand aquifer to control the hydraulic gradient. Under a steady-state water flow condition, a tracer test was performed in the sandbox with the help of peristaltic pump, and tracer samples were collected from the same interval of five screened wells in the sandbox. During the tracer test, SP signals resulting from the distribution of 20 nonpolarizable electrodes were measured at the top of the tank by a multichannel meter. The results showed that there were changes in the observed SP after injection of tracer, which indicated that the SP was likely to be related to the solute transport.

Quantifying rates of microbial processes under subsurface conditions is difficult, and is most commonly approximated by laboratory studies using aquifer materials. In this study a single-well, 'push-pull' test method is adapted for the in situ determination of denitrification rates in groundwater aquifers. The rates of stepwise reduction of nitrate to nitrite, nitrous oxide, and molecular nitrogen were determined by performing a series of push-pull tests at an experimental well field of Korea University. A single Transport Test, one Biostimulation Test, and four Activity Tests were conducted for this study. Transport tests are conducted to evaluate the mobility of solutes used in subsequent tests. These included bromide (a conservative tracer), fumarate (a carbon and/or source), and nitrate (an electron acceptor). At this site, extraction phase breakthrough curves for all solutes were similar, indicating apparent conservative transport of the solutes prior to biostimulation. Biostimulation tests were conducted to stimulate the activity of indigenous heterotrophic denitrifyinc microorganisms. Biostimulation was detected by the simultaneous production of carbon dioxide and nitrite after each injection. Activity tests were conducted to quantify rates of nitrate, nitrite, and nitrous oxide reduction. Estimated zero-order degradation rates decreased in the order nitrate '||'&'||'gt; nitrite '||'&'||'gt; nitrous oxide. The series of push-pull tests developed and field tested in this study should prove useful for conducting rapid, low-cost feasibi1ity assessments for in situ denitrification in nitrate-contaminated aquifers.

This study measured the change of media properties using Time domain Reflectometry (TDR) and Tensionmeter (TM) to measure volumetric water content of soil affecting in land subsidence and pollutant diffusion under saturation/unsaturated condition by water-level fluctuations. Also, actual water content compared their changes aspect by dry oven test for quantitative determinations of these measured values. In the case of TM, initial unsaturated condition confirmed that range in dimension of each other different according to their establishment depth, but measured values of TM can know that is shown measured value in almost similar measuring range under drain condition after the first injection. Also, the results of TDR showed that can measure enough change of volumetric water content in saturation/unsaturated condition by water-level fluctuations. Therefore, we are judged that TDR measurement equipment is very effective to measure the variations of volumetric water content and water-level being caused in groundwater level fluctuations.

무기질계 주입재는 지반개량 재료로서 기존의 물유리계 재료를 사용할 경우 발생하는 용출현상 및 강도저하를 보완한 시멘트계 급결재와 무기질계 초미립자를 주원료로 하는 순수 무기질 재료를 사용한 것으로서, 시공 후 내구성 및 강도가 우수하고 주입재의 용출 현상이 발생하지 않아 환경오염 문제가 거의없는 영구적인 차수 및 보강에 적합한 친환경적인 재료이다. 본 연구는 지반개량 재료로서 급결성 시멘트계 재료와 순수 무기질 주입재를 주원료로 배합된 MIS(Micro Injection-process System)와 기존에 많이 쓰여지고 있는 물유리계 주입재인 SGR의 내구성 및 친환경적특성을 일축압축강도시험, 내화학성시험, 어독성시험, 화학성분 분석 등의 실험으로 비교 분석 하였다. 일축압축 시험결과 재령 28일 강도는 MIS가 SGR재료에 비해 1.7배 크게 발현 되었고, 재령 40일 이후 SGR재료는 강도가 저하하는 반면 MIS는 지속적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 내화학성시험 결과 MIS의 길이변화율이 물유리계주입재에 비해 10배~25배 작게 나타났다. 그리고, 어독성시험 결과 MIS가 물유리계주입재에 비해 친환경적임이 증명되었고, 화학성분 분석 결과 MIS 용출액이 물유리계주입재의 용출액에 비해 $Cr^{6+}$, Pb, Si 성분이 적게 검출됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서, MIS 주입재는 기존의 SGR 주입재에 비해 고강도로 공기단축 및 기초지반의 구조적 안정성이 우수하며 친환경적이라 지하수오염 등의 문제도 적을 것으로 판단된다.

여러 개의 층으로 구성된 토양층에서 연속주입 추적자시험을 수행하여, 불포화대와 포화대 구간에서의 수리분산특성 차이를 추적자의 농도이력곡선, 시간에 따른 농도변화 및 농도변화율, 그리고 거리에 따른 농도비 분석을 통해 비교 연구하였다. 연속주입 추적자시험에 의하면, 약 160시간이 경과된 후에 불포화대와 포화대에서 Rhodamine WT 최대농도의 차이는 약 $13{\sim}15$배 정도에 달하였고, 시험시간 대 추적자 농도증가율의 차이는 약 10배 정도로 나타났다. 또한 시간에 따른 추적자 농도이력곡선의 변화와 농도변화율이 불포화대에 비하여 포화대에서 크게 나타났다. 주입공에서의 이격거리에 따른 추적자의 농도비는 포화대 구간에서 더 빠르게 선형적으로 감소하였으며, 그 이후에 농도비가 2배 이하로 완만해 지는데 걸린 시간은 포화대 구간이 더 길었다. 이러한 차이들은 여러 개의 층서로 구성된 토양층의 포화대에서는 지하수가 존재하며, 또한 매질의 불균질성이 크고 투수성이 다양하기 때문에, 비교적 균질한 층서를 이루는 불포화대에 비하여 추적자 용액의 농도는 낮고, 추적자의 확산이 느리게 진행되어진데서 기인하였다. 그리고 포화대 구간에서의 유효공극율은 $10.19{\sim}10.50%$, 종분산지수는 $0.80{\sim}l.98m$, 횡분산지수는 $0.02{\sim}0.04m$의 범위로 산정되었으며, 실내주상시험의 종분산지수와 비교할 때 12배 이상의 규모종속효과가 나타났다.

A comprehensive in-situ tests are performed to define the hydrogeologic and hydrodispersive characteristics such as hydraulic conductivities, longitudinal dispersivity, and average linear velocities as well as conducting flow-net analysis at the study area. The results show that the study area is very heterogeneous so that hydraulic conductivities range from $6.45{\times}10^{-7}$ to $1.15{\times}10^{-5}m/s$ with average linear velocities of 0.34~0.62m/day. Whole groundwater in upper-most aquifer is discharging into the sea with specific discharge rate of $7.2{\times}10^{-3}$ to $1.3{\times}10^{-2}m/day$. The longitudinal dispersivity of the aquifer is estimated about 4.8m through In-situ injection phase test. The area is highly vulnerable to potential contaminant sources due to it's high value of DRASTIC index ranging from 139 to 155 and also under water table condition with very shallow groundwater level. To delineate contaminant plumes of toxic NaOH and carcinogenic benzene when these substances are assumed to be leaked through existing TSDF at the study area by unexpected accidents or spill, Aquifer Simulation Model (ASM) including Flow and Transport Model is used. Te simulated results reveal that the size of NaOH plume after 5 years continuous leak is about $250{\times}100m$ and benzene after 10 years, $490{\times}100m$. When the groundwater is abstracted about 50 days, which is maximum continuously sustained no-precipitation period during 30 years, with pumping rate of $100m^3/day$, THWELL program shows that the groundwater is adversly affected by sea water intrusion.

지하수의 Ar/$N_2$가스의 비율은 탈질화(denitrification)의 정도를 측정하는 하나의 방법으로 사용된다. (Barnes et al., 1975; Vogel et al., 1981; Mariotti et al., 1988) 그 비율 측정은 일반적으로 질량분석기 (Mass Spectrometer)를 사용한다. 본 실험에서 사용한 Mass Spectrometer는 일반적인 Static Mass Spectrometer가 아닌 Ar과 $N_2$을 시간적으로 동시에 측정하여 오차를 줄일 수 있는 VG Optima isotope ratio Mass Spectrometer를 사용하였다. 두 지역 지하수의 Ar/$N_2$가스의 비율을 측정한 결과 Site 1(Grand Island, NE)의 경우 대기가스가 포화된 증류수의 Ar/$N_2$가스 비율인 0.026보다 낮은 0.015-0.018로서 탈질이 일어났음을 알 수 있으며, Site 2(Shelton, NE)의 경우 0.023-0.02로서 탈질이 일어나지 않음을 알 수 있다. 본 실험의 목적은 지하수에 응해되어 있는 Ar/Nitrogen의 비율을 정확히 측정하는 방법을 개발하므로서 탈질의 정도를 정확히 측정하며 탈질의 전개 과정을 관찰하기 위한 것이다.

In this study, column tests using relatively uniform Jumunjin sand media were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of calcium polysulfide (CaS_x, CPS) in removing high concentration of Zn²⁺ in groundwater. The injected CPS solution reacted rapidly with Zn²⁺ in artificial groundwater and effectively reduced Zn²⁺ by more than 99% through metal sulfide precipitation. Since the density (d = 1.27 g/cm³ ) of CPS solution was greater than that of water, CPS solution settled down rapidly while capturing Zn²⁺ and formed stable CPS layer similar to dense nonaqueous phase liquid. Mass balance analysis on Zn²⁺ in CPS solution suggested that CPS solution effectively reacted with Zn²⁺ to form metal sulfide precipitates except for high groundwater seepage velocity of 400 cm/d. With greater groundwater seepage velocity, injected CPS did not completely dissolve at the CPS-water interface, but a partially-misible CPS layer continuously moved and reacted with Zn²⁺+ in the direction of groundwater flow. Since hydraulic conductivity (K_h) decreased slightly due to the generated metal precipitates in the inter-pores of media, injection of CPS solution should be optimized to prevent clogging. As evidenced by both XRF and SEM/EDS results, ZnS precipitates were clearly observed through the reaction between the CPS solution and Zn²⁺. Further study is warranted to evaluate the feasibility of CPS to remove high-concentration heavy metalcontaminated groundwater in complex and heterogeneous media.
