In this research, we proposed the immobilization zone where the organic contaminant would be fixed, so that ground water could be prevented from the organic contaminants. The surfactant was adsorbed on the soil particles and the organic contaminants were partitioned into the hydrophobic tails of the surfactant in the immobilization zone. Surfactants with different molecular structures-SDDBS (sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid), MADS (monoalkylated disulfonated diphenyl oxide), DADS (dialkylated disulfonated diphenyl oxide) - were used in this study. Up to the present, the research on the immolization simulated the saturated condition. But many site contaminated with organic contaminants and the zones where immobilization would be applied are unsaturated. In this research, in order to investigate the behaviors of surfactants and organic contaminants in unsaturated condition, the unsaturated columns were experimented, and their results were compared with the saturated case.

The fate of hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) in ground water is highly affected by the distribution and property of the carbonaceous materials (CMs) in subsurface sediments. CMs in soils consist of organic matters (e.g., cellulose, fulvic acid, humic acid, humin, etc.) and black carbon such as char, soot, etc. The distribution and property of CMs are governed by source materials and geological evolution (e.g., diagenesis, catagenesis, etc.) of them. In this study, the distribution and property of CMs in subsurface sediments near the Imjin river in the Republic of Korea and HOC sorption property to the subsurface sediments were investigated. The organic carbon contents of sand and clay/silt layers were about 0.35% and 1.37%, respectively. The carbon contents of condensed form of CMs were about 0.13% and 0.45%, respectively. The existence of black carbon was observed using scanning electron microscopes with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The specific surface areas (SSA) of CMs in heavy fraction(HFrCM) measured with N2 were $35-46m^2/g$. However, SSAs of those HFrCM mineral fraction was only $1.6-4.3m^2/g$. The results of thermogravimetric analysis show that the mass loss of HFrCM was significant at $50-200^{\circ}C$ and $350-600^{\circ}C$ due to the degradation of soft form and condensed form of CMs, respectively. The trichloroethylene (TCE) sorption capacities of sand and clay/silt layers were similar to each other, and these values were also similar to oxidzed layer of glacially deposited subsurface sediments of the Chanute Air Force Base (AFB) in Rantoul, Illinois. However, these were 7-8 times lower than TCE sorption capacity of reduced layer of the Chanute AFB sediments. For accurate prediction of the fate of hydrophobic organic contaminants in subsurface sediments, continuous studies on the development of characterization methods for CMs are required.

Riverbank filtration is a natural process using alluvial aquifers to remove contaminants and pathogens in river water for the production of drinking water. In riverbank filtration, the understanding of contaminant transport is an important task for the production of high quality drinking water. This study investigates the transport behavior of hydrophobic organic contaminants when colloids (dissolved organic matter and bacteria) are present in the aquifer. A mathematical model for the transport of contaminants is developed and solved numerically for various situations. Results show that in the riverbank filtration the presence of DOM and bacteria enhances the mobility of contaminant significantly. Sensitivity analysis indicates that the distribution of the total aqueous Phase contaminant is significantly affected by distribution coefficients which account for affinity of solid or colloidal Phase to contaminant.

토양이나 지하환경에서 소수성 유기오염물질은 자연적으로 존재하는 휴믹물질과 오염된 토양을 세척하는데 사용되는 계면활성제에 의해 거동이 결정되어진다. 거대분자인 휴믹물질은 pseudomicelle을 형성하여 소수성 유기오염물질의 용해도를 증가시키고, 계면활성제 역시 CMC 이상의 농도에서 마이셀을 이루어 오염물질을 흡수하게 된다. 이 논문의 연구 목적은 소수성 유기오염물질로서 네 가지 PAHs와 p,p'-DDT를 사용하여 휴믹산과 세 가지 음이온성 계면활성제에 의한 용해도 증가를 비교해보고, 나아가서는 오염물질의 종류에 따라 어떠한 양상을 보이는지를 알아보는 것이다. 휴믹산에 의한 용해도 증가는 PAHs의 경우에서는 나프탈렌에서 퍼릴렌으로 갈수록 증가하지만 p,p'-DDT는 소수성이 가장 큼에도 불구하고 파이렌보다도 용해도 증가 정도가 낮았다. 음이온성 계면활성제의 경우, SDS 와 SDDBS에 의한 다섯 가지 소수성 유기오염물질의 용해도가 선형적으로 증가한 반면, 쌍둥이 머리(twin-head)를 가진 MADS-12에 의한 용해도 증가는 나프탈렌에서 퍼릴렌으로 갈수록 증가하였지만, p,p'-DDT의 용해도 증가 정도는 퍼릴렌 보다 약간 감소하였다.

This study provided sorption properties of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and elucidated potential application of CFC sorption data in hydrogeochemistry. Prior sorption studies were reviewed for hydrophobic organic compounds similar to the CFCs, because there were only few CFC sorption studies. The CFCs are regarded as relatively conservative chemicals in groundwater environments based on their moderate hydrophobicity. However, thermally altered carbonaceous matter (TACM) can significantly increase sorption capacity and nonlinearity for hydrophobic organic compounds such as CFCs, compared to general soil organic matter. CFC sorption behavior are close to the sorption for reviewed organic chemicals. Therefore, the CFC sorption data can be used for determining hydrogeochemical properties and predicting transport of organic contaminants in TACM-containing aquifer environments.

In-situ activated carbon (AC) amendment is a promising remediation technique for the treatment of sediment impacted by hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs). Since its first proposal in the early 2000s, the remediation technique has quickly gained acceptance as a feasible alternative among the scientific and engineering communities in the United States and northern Europe. This review paper aims to provide an overview on in-situ AC amendment for the treatment of HOC-impacted sediment with a major focus on its working principles. We began with an introduction on the practical and scientific background that led to the proposal of this remediation technique. Then, we described how the remediation technique works in a mechanistic sense, along with discussion on two modes of implementation, mechanical mixing and thin-layer capping, that are distinct from each other. We also discussed key considerations involved in establishing a remedial goal and performing post-implementation monitoring when this technique is field-applied. We concluded with future works necessary to adopt and further develop this innovative sediment remediation technique to ongoing and future sediment contamination concerns in Korea.

Accurate prediction of the fate and transport of contaminants in soils and sediments is very Important to environmental risk assessment and effective remediation of contaminated soils and sediments. The fate and transport of contaminants in subsurface are affected by geosorbents, especially carbonaceous materials including black carbon. Various physical and chemical treatment methods have been developed to separate different kinds of carbonaceous materials from soils and sediments. However, the effects of these separation methods on the properties of remaining carbonaceous materials including sorption capacity and linearity are unclear. The objective of this study is to determine if the chemical and thermal treatment methods previously used to separate different carbonaceous material fractions affect the properties of carbonaceous materials including longer term sorption capacity of hydrophobic organic contaminants. The results indicate that treatments with hydrochloric acid (HCl)/hydrofluoric acid (HF), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) may not affect the sorption capacity of black carbon reference materials such as char and soot, however, treatments with acid dichromate $(K_2Cr_2O_7/H_2SO_4)$ and heat $(375^{\circ}C)$ for 24 hours in sufficient of oxygen) decrease the sorption capacity of them. The results of longer term sorption isotherm indicate that 2 days might be enough for trichloroethene (TCE) to equilibrate apparently with treated black carbon reference materials. The results suggest that acid dichromate and heat treatments may not appropriate method to investigate sorption properties of black carbon in soils and sediments.

강변여과는 강물을 강변의 충적대수층에 통과시켜 지층의 자체정화능력을 이용하여 오염물질을 상당량 저감시킨 후 양수하는 방식이다. 국내에서는 대부분의 원수를 지표수에서 취수하여 사용하고 있는 실정이나, 오염물질의 증가로 인하여 지표수를 원수로 사용하기가 점점 어려워지고 있다. 강변여과를 이용하여 양질의 원수를 확보하기 위해서는 오염물 이동에 관한 이해가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 대수층에 용존성 유기물질(DOM)과 박테리아가 동시에 존재할 경우를 대상으로 대수층을 4상(four-phase: 흙입자, 물, 박테리아, 용존성 유기물질)으로 모델링하고, 이들의 물리, 화학, 생물학적 특성을 고려하여 물질의 거동을 기술하는 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. DOM과 박테리아와 같은 콜로이드성 물질은 오염물의 이동을 가속시키고, 평형 분배계수가 중요한 역할을 하는 인자인 것으로 나타났다.

There is a growing interest to develop a new cleaning technology to overcome the disadvantages of wet cleaning technologies such as environmental pollution and the cleaning difficulty of contaminants on integrated circuits. Laser cleaning is a potential technology to remove various pollutants on a wafer surface. However, there is no fundamental data about cleaning efficiencies and cleaning mechanisms of contaminants on a wafer surface using a laser cleaning technology. Therefore, the cleaning characteristics of a wafer surface using an excimer laser were investigated in this study. Fingerprint consisting of inorganic and organic materials was chosen as a representative of pollutants and the effectiveness of a laser irradiation on a wafer cleaning has been investigated qualitatively and quantitatively. The results have shown that cleaning degree is proportional to the laser irradiation time and repetition rate, and quantitative analysis conducted by an image processing method also have shown the same trend. Furthermore, the cleaning efficiency of a wafer contaminated by fingerprint strongly depended on a photothermal cleaning mechanism and the species were removed in order of hydrophilic and hydrophobic contaminants by laser irradiation.

Humin is the insoluble fraction of humic materials and play an important roles in the irreversible sorption of hydrophobic organic contaminants onto soil particles. However, there have been limited knowledge about the sorption and chemical properties of humin due to the difficulties in its separation from the inorganic matrix(mainly clays and oxides). In this study, do-ashed humin was isolated from a soil sample after removing free lipid and alkali-soluble humic fractions followed by dissolution of mineral matrix with 2% HF, and characterized by elemental analysis, C-13 NMR spectroscopic method. Sorption behavior of 1-naphthol with humin was also investigated from aqueous solution. C-13 NMR spectra indicate that humin molecules are mainly made up of aliphatic carbon including carbohydrate, methylene chain etc.. Sorption intensity for 1-naphthol was increased as organic carbon content of humin increased and log Koc values for the 1-naphthol sorption were determined to be ${\sim}3.12$
