본 연구에서는 철도정비창 부지 내에 폐기물 및 중금속오염 구간에서 채취한 토양을 대상으로 하였다. 그리고 효율적인 정화공정 설계를 위하여 고농도 오염구간, 저농도 오염구간, 폐주물사 함유 시료를 대상으로 입도분포 및 입도 분포 오염농도 분석을 실시하였다. 하지만 폐콘크리트, 폐목재 등의 건설폐기물, 폐주물사, 소각재 등이 부지 전반에 걸쳐 매립되어 있어 일반토양 오염과 다른 양상을 보이고 있었다. 따라서 일반적인 중금속정화기술로는 오염원이 감소하지 않아 혼합된 폐기물 중에 자성을 띠는 성분을 자력선별을 적용하여 실험한 결과 중금속 오염도는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

In order to study the long-term change of heavy metal concentrations in the Kumho river water, water analysis was conducted at 13sites surrounding the Kumho river system for 18times from September 1993 to August 1999. Analytical items for the study of water quality are Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Fe, Mn and Pb. The six year term studied in this work was divided into Part I and Part II, which covers the period from September 1993 to August 1996 and the period from September 1996 to August 1999, respectively. The mean concentrations of Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Fe, Mn and Pb in the unit of ppm for the Part I period showed 0.032, 0.025, 0.006, 0.050, 0.053 and 0.019, respectively. The mean concentrations of Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Fe, Mn and Pb in the unit of ppm for the Part II period showed 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.004, 0.020, 0.002 and 0.002, respectively. The heavy metal concentrations in the Kumho river water for te second period were found to be decreased by 1/32, 1/25, 1/6, 1/1.5, 1/2.5, 1/26.5 and 1/9.5 for Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Fe, Mn and Pb, respectively. The present results clearly indicate that the water quality in the Kumho river is improving in terms of heavy metal contaminations.

The tiles were manufactured using a mixture of the TK material(a raw material in making tile) and Cu-Cr-Ag impregnated activated carbon(ASC Charcoal). The extraction character of heavy metals in making tile was evaluated and the manufacturing conditions of tile were studied. The heavy metals in the mixture-before and after the tile was production of tiles was successful and as a result of heavy metal analysis, the tile showed that the concentration of heavy metal after the production of tiles was lower than that of the before one. The concentration of eluted heavy metal by acidic and basic solutions was low and the quality of the produced tile was similar to the commercial one. The result of this study suggested that the waste ASC charcoal was used to produce good tiles and it also might reduce soil pollution.

본 연구는 폐금속광산의 중금속 오염 토양에서 억새를 이용한 식물안정화공법을 적용하기 위해 토양개량제 처리에 따른 토양내 중금속 이동성과 억새내 중금속 축적형태 등을 분석하여 적정 토양개량제를 선발하고자 수행하였다. 이를 위해 중금속 오염토양을 바닥재 1, 2%, 비산재 1, 2%, 폐석회+굴패각 1, 2%, AMDS 10, 20%, 퇴비 3.4% 등으로 처리하고, 비교를 위해 아무 처리를 하지 않은 대조구에 억새를 식재한 후 6개월을 재배하였다. Mehlich-3에 의한 토양내 중금속 함량, 억새 체내 중금속 이동형태 등을 분석한 결과 AMDS 20%가 식물안정화공법에 가장 효과적인 개량제로 선정되었으며, 2순위는 AMDS 10%가 선정되었다. 폐석회+굴패각, 바닥재와 비산재도 식물안정화공법적용 효과가 대조구에 비해 개선된 것으로 나타났다. 개량제 처리에 따라 일부 중금속의 토양내 유동성이 증가하는 결과를 보여, 실제 사업 적용을 위해 사전에 대상지역의 토양오염 특성을 분석하여 현장특성에 적합하게 토양개량제를 선정해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, we investigated the atmospheric heavy metal concentrations in the particulate matter inside the subway stations of Seoul. In particular, we examined the correlation between the heavy metals and studied the effect of the heavy metals on cell proliferation. In six selected subway stations in Seoul, particulate matter was captured at the platforms and 11 types of heavy metals were analyzed. The results showed that the mean concentration of iron was the highest out of the heavy metals in particulate matter, followed by copper, potassium, calcium, zinc, nickel, sodium, manganese, magnesium, chromium and cadmium in that order. The correlation analysis showed that the correlations between the heavy metals was highest in the following order: (Cu vs Zn), (Ca vs Na), (Ca vs Mn), (Ni vs Cr), (Na vs Mn), (Cr vs Cd), (Zn vs Cd), (Cu vs Cd), (Ni vs Cd), (Cu vs Ni), (K vs Zn), (Cu vs K), (Cu vs Cr), (K vs Cd), (Zn vs Cr), (K vs Ni), (Zn vs Ni), (K vs Cr), and (Fe vs Cu). The correlation coefficient between zinc and copper was 0.937, indicating the highest correlation. Copper, zinc, nickel, chromium and cadmium, which are generated from artificial sources in general, showed correlations with many of the other metals and the correlation coefficients were also relatively high. The effect of the heavy metals on cell proliferation was also investigated in this study. Cultured cell was exposed to 10 mg/l or 100 mg/l of iron, copper, calcium, zinc, nickel, manganese, magnesium, chromium and cadmium for 24 hours. The cell proliferation in all the heavy metal-treated groups was not inhibited at 10 mg/l of the heavy metal concentration. The only exception to this was with the cadmium-treated group which showed a strong cell proliferation inhibition. This study provides the fundamental data for the understanding of simultaneous heavy metal exposure tendency at the time of particulate matter exposure in subway stations and the identification of heavy metal sources. Moreover, this study can be used as the fundamental data for the cell toxicity study of the subway-oriented heavy metal-containing particulate matter.

Based on a nationwide survey of the consumption of oriental medicine by the Korean population, we estimated the potential risk from the inadvertent ingestion of heavy metals such as Pb, Hg, As, and Cd as a result such consumption. Compared to the provisional daily intake limit, heavy metal intake through oriental medicine resulted in hazard quotients of less than one. The upper $90^{th}$ percentile exposure estimates for each metal also showed insignificant risk. In relation to inorganic forms that are known carcinogens the excess cancer risk was less than $1{\times}10^7$. Based on the results of this study exposure to Pb, Hg, As, or Cd through oriental medicine intake appeared to be negligible and would not cause a significant impact on health.

In soil washing, there are many variables including types of reagent and contaminant, washing time, soil-liquid ratio, washing cycles, washing agent concentrations, and etc. To identify the most influencing factors on soil washing process, regression analysis was performed for eight single variables and five combined variables. A quantitative model that employs W/H (molar ratio of washing agent to heavy metal) as a major variable was established based on the regression. The validity of the model was demonstrated by conducting lab experiments with Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni and As-contaminated soils, and various washing reagents including acetic acid, citric acid, malic acid, oxalic acid, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and nitriloacetic acid (NTA). The washing efficiencies were compared with the EDTA washing data reported in the literature. The correlation between W/H and removal efficiency was analyzed after dividing data into two groups according to the heavy metal mobility.

본 연구에서는 안동댐 퇴적물의 중금속 및 용출 특성을 분석하기 위하여 X-선 회절 분석, ICP 분석, 용출 실험을 수행하였다. X-선 회절 분석 결과 안동댐 퇴적물의 주구성 광물은 석영, 사장석, 녹니석, 일라이트이다. 퇴적물에 대한 ICP 분석 결과 비소와 카드뮴의 농도가 매우 높게 나타났다. 용출 실험은 교란 상태에서 호기성 및 혐기성 환경에서 수행하였다. 용출 실험 결과 혐기성보다 호기성 상태에서 더 많은 중금속이 용출되는 경향을 나타내었다. 호기성 상태에서 시간이 지남에 따라 농도가 증가하는 항목은 망간, 아연, 카드뮴이며 혐기성 상태에서는 망간, 철, 비소이다. 퇴적물 중금속 농도대비 용출비는 호기성 및 혐기성 환경에서 각각 Mn > Cd > Zn > Ni > Cu > As > Pb ≒ Fe ≒ Cr이며 Mn > As > Cu > Ni > Zn > Pb ≒ Cd ≒ Fe ≒ Cr이다.

Heavy metal concentration/distribution in sediments and bivalves from the tidal flats in Saemankeum coastal area, western Korea, were investigated, Among 6 sampling sites, S2, S5 and S6 showed the higher levels of Zn, Cr, Ni, Cu and Cd contamination and S1 did the higher level of Pb contamination than other sites, while S-4 showed the lowest levels of these metal contamination. Overally, the levels of Zn, Cu and Pb concentrations in Sinonovacula constricta were estimated to be relatively high. The shell lengths of the collected mussels were linearly related to their dry weights of the whole soft parts, but the mussels collected from S3 were in a poor nutrition, resulting in the distinctively high levels of metal concentrations in the body. It was shown that in S. constricta, Cr, Ni, Cu and Zn are distributed equally into the whole soft parts or a little more into the flesh, after absorption, while Fe, Cd, Pb and Mn are transferred more into the non-flesh parts than into the flesh parts. In S. constricta, the heavy metal concentrations in the flesh increase with those in the whole soft parts. The bioaccumulation factors(heavy metal concentration in S. constricta/heavy metal concentration in sediment) showed that, of the examined metals, Cd is the most cumulative in the body of S. constricta, followed by Zn and Cu, while Mn, Cr, Ni and Pb are not cumulative.
