본 연구에서는 유류로 오염된 모래의 지반공학적 특성에 대하여 분석하였다. 오염물로 사용한 유류는 점도특성을 고려하여 등유, 원유, 자동차 엔진오일을 선정하였고, 모형지반은 주문진 표준사를 사용하였다. 실내시험은 다짐시험, 투수시험, 직접전단시험을 유류의 오염비율에 따라 수행하였다. 투수시험에서 유류의 함유비가 증가할수록 오염되지 않은 지반에 비해 투수계수가 점진적으로 저하되었다. 내부마찰각은 오염되지 않은 지반보다 상대적으로 감소하였다.

The escalating growth of industrial sectors has led to a pervasive global problem—oil pollution, particularly in industrial areas. The release of substantial volumes of oil and its by-products into the environment has resulted in extensive contamination. Multiple factors contribute to the entry of these substances into water bodies and soils, thereby inflicting irreparable consequences on ecosystems, natural resources, and human health. Consequently, it becomes imperative to comprehend the characteristics and behavior of oil pollution, anticipate its impacts, and develop effective mitigation strategies. Understanding this intricate issue requires considering the physicochemical properties of the environment, the interactions between oil and sediments, and biological factors such as evaporation and dissolution. Although the oil industry has brought about remarkable advancements, its activities have raised significant concerns regarding pollution from extraction and production processes. Oil-rich nations face a particularly challenging predicament of soil pollution caused by petroleum compounds. The areas surrounding oil exploration mines and refineries often endure contamination due to oil leakages from storage tanks and transmission lines resulting from deterioration and damage. Investigating the dispersion of such pollutants and devising methods to remediate petroleum-contaminated soil represent crucial and intricate issues within the realm of environmental geotechnics.

Over 30% of domestic soil contamination has occurred via petroleum products and complex oil. Moreover, contamination by complex oil is more intense than it is by a single petroleum product species. In this study, we analyzed sectional TPH (total petroleum hydrocarbon) pattern and sectional ratio of current domestically distributed petroleum products, such as kerosene, diesel, bunker C, and lubricant and complex oils, to determine pollution characteristics of the soil. In the TPH pattern, kerosene, which is a light distillate, had an early retention time, and lubricant oil, which is a heavy distillate, had a late retention time in the gas chromatogram. In addition, we obtained a complexly contaminated soil via diesel and lubricant oil from the Navy and inspected it for its ratio of complex oil species. The inspection results showed that this soil was contaminated with 85% diesel and 15% lubricant oil. The method developed in this study could be used to determine complex petroleum sources and ratios at sites with accidentally contaminated soil.

원유 유출 사고 시 원유에 의한 생태계 영향 뿐만 아니라 원유에 포함된 중금속에 의한 오염도 평가되어야 한다. 허베이 스프리트호 유출 해역 부근의 조간대 및 연안역에서 사고 직후인 2007년 12월, 2008년 1월에 표층 퇴적물을 채취하였고 유기탄소, 황 및 금속 원소들을 정량하여 원유에 의한 퇴적물의 중금속 오염을 평가하고자 하였다. 원유에는 C, S 및 V, Ni가 함유되어 있었고, As, Cd 등 유해한 금속은 함유되어 있지 않았다. 유기탄소 농도로 보았을 때 오염이 가장 심한 정점은 원유의 영향이 약 10% 정도인 것으로 추정되었으며, 이 정점에서는 다른 정점들에 비해 높은 V 농도를 보였다. 금속간의 비(V/Al 및 Ni/Al)를 통하여 원유 오염 의심 정점을 다른 정점과 구분할 수 있었으며 이 비들을 향후 원유 오염 지시자로 활용할 수 있으리라 예상된다.

This study area has been contaminated by oils. To identify contaminated ranges and to assess the possibility of contamination dispersion, monitoring wells were installed and slug test, field soil permeability test, automatic or manual measurement of groundwater table, and groundwater quality analyses in field and laboratory were performed. In addition, a groundwater modeling program was used to assess the possibility of oil contamination dispersion, based on field data and groundwater quality data. The results showed that concentration of oil contaminants in groundwater have been decreased by dispersion and adsorption.

This paper presents an experimental study to evaluate the effect of palm oil on the selected basic physical-chemical and geotechnical properties of kaolin. The experimental findings are further compared with literature outcomes investigating similar properties of fine grained soils subjected to contamination by different types of oils. To this end, palm oil was mixed with oven dried kaolin samples-aiding oil's interaction (coating) with dry particles first, in anticipation to emphasize the effect of oil on the properties of kaolin, which would be difficult to achieve otherwise. Oil content was limited to 40% by dry weight of kaolin, supplemented at intervals of 10% from clean kaolin samples. Observations highlight physical particle-to-particle bonding resulting in the formation of pseudo-silt sized clusters due to palm oil's interaction as evinced in the particle size distribution and SEM micrographs. These clusters, aided by water repellency property of the oil coating the kaolin particles, was analyzed to show notable variations in kaolin's consistency-measured as liquid and plastic limits. Furthermore, results from compaction tests indicates contribution of oil's viscosity on the compaction behavior of kaolin - showing decrease in the maximum dry unit weight (${\gamma}_{d,max}$) and optimum moisture content ($w_{opt}$) values with increasing oil contents, while their decrease rates were directly and inversely proportional in ${\gamma}_{d,max}$ and $w_{opt}$ values with oil contents respectively. Comparative study in similar terms, also validates this lower and higher decrease rates in ${\gamma}_{d,max}$ and $w_{opt}$ values of the fine grained soils respectively, when subjected to contamination by oil with higher viscosity.

An integrated in-line oil monitoring detector assigned for continuous in situ monitoring multiple parameters of oil performance for predicting economically optimal oil change intervals and equipment condition control is presented in this study. The detector estimates oil deterioration based on the information about chemical degradation, total contamination, water content of oil and oil temperature. The oil oxidation is estimated by "chromatic ratio", total contamination is measured by the changes in optical intensity of oil in three optical wavebands ("Red", "Green" and "Blue") and water content is evaluated as Relative Saturation of oil by water. The detector is able to monitor oils with low light absorption (hydraulic, transformer, turbine, compressor and etc. oils) as well as oils with rather high light absorption in visible waveband (diesel and etc. oils). In a case study that the detector is applied to a diesel engine oil, it is found that the detector provides good results on oil chemical degradation as well as soot concentration.

지반오염을 조사하기 위해서는 시추작업을 통하여 시료를 채취하는 방법이 일반적이지만, 실시간으로 원위치에서 다양한 오염물질들의 오염 도 변화를 체계적으로 모니터링 하는 것은 대단히 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) 장비를 고안하여 지반의 유류오염을 파악하기 위한 유전율 측정법의 실험적 접근을 시도하였다. 구체적으로 포화 및 불포화 매질에 대한 유류 오염도 측정 및 체적함수비 (θ/sub w/)와 체적 유류비 ( θ/sub al/)의 관계에서 유전율 상수 반응에 따른 매질의 유류 오염도 등의 측정 가능성을 실내 시험을 통해 검토하였다. 뿐만 아니라 실내 칼럼 시험을 수행하여 포화 매질 내에서 유류 거동 특성을 각기 설치된 FDR 측정 센서를 이용해 모니터링하여 포화 매질의 유효공극률과 유류 잔류비를 측정하였다. 그 결과 초기 공극률 0.40으로 제작된 포화 매질의 유효공극률은 약 0.35로 공극률 대비 약 87.5% 범위내에 존재함을 알 수 있었으며, 유류 잔류비는 약 62.5% 정도로 매우 높게 나타났다.

New method and device for the on-line measurement of soot concentration in a diesel engine oil are proposed, where the measurement principle is based mainly on attenuated internal total reflection. Various laboratory tests of the detector were performed mainly with carbon black particles of different contamination levels. It was found that the proposed detector could be well used to monitor oil deterioration due to soot contamination. Operational range of the detector was found from 0 to 5 mass percentage of soot content. Test results with water and fuel dilution showed that these effects were not remarkable. However, adsorption of carbon black particles to a measurement surface was considered to be a critical problem in the new detector. Effects of particle deposition onto the interface was experimentally evaluated with the oil temperature and turbulence and discussed throughout this work.
