On 7 December 2007, about 12,547 kL of crude oil spilled from the Hong Kong registered tanker Hebei Spirit along the west coast of the Republic of Korea, including Taean-gun, Chungcheongnamdo Province. This study evaluated the safety of seafood collected from the coastal area polluted by the crude oil. The range of total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (${\sum}PAHs$) at 22 stations was 3.9-37.1 ng/g. The concentration of ${\sum}PAHs$ was higher in oysters, Crassoatrea gias, than that in short-necked clams, Ruditapes philippinarum. Benzo(a)pyrene, a highly toxic PAH, ranged from 0.07-1.47 ng/g, which did not exceed the European Union regulatory limit for benzo(a)pyrene. The toxicity equivalent of benzo(a)pyrene in oysters and short-necked clams was 0.49-1.70 and 0.09-1.01 ng/g, respectively. The estimated life time cancer risk was very low, i.e., $1.31{\times}10^{-8}$ for the oysters and $6.9{\times}10^{-9}$ for the short-necked clams. The body burden of PAHs in bivalves originated mostly from petroleum contamination, but the levels was not sufficiently high to harm human health.

나뭇잎에 침착된 PAHs를 분석할 때 기존의 방법들 보다 더 적은 양의 시약과 용매를 사용하여 효율적이고 경제적으로 방해물질을 제거하는 방법을 개발하였으며, 방법은 아래와 같다. 1) 시료 $4{\sim}5g$ DCM 100ml로 속슬렛에서 20시간 추출하고 약 3ml까지 농축한다. 2) 내경 9mm, 길이 130mm column에 아래로부터 $Al_2O_3$2.5g, $SiO_2$1.5g, 무수 Na$_2SO_4$ 2g을 충전시키고 hexane : DCM(1:1) 60ml로 용출한 후 1ml까지 농축한다. 3) 내경 20mm, 길이 200mm column에 Bio-beads 12g을 충전시킨 gPC(gel Permeation Chromatography) column을 사용하여 hexane:DCM(1:1) 80ml로 다시 clean-up 한다. 용출액중 처음 37ml는 방해물질이 포함되어 있으므로 버리고 나머지 43ml는 PAHs fraction이므로 포집하여 약 2ml까지 농축한다. 4) Hot plate위에서 질소로 천천히 final volume $50{\mu}l$까지 농축하여 GC-MS로 분석한다. 5) Deuterated PAHs로 계산한 회수율은 $43.3{\sim}107.5%$(RSD $2.2{\sim}9.5%$)였다.

We investigated soil contamination depending on the land use by examining the contamination levels and distribution characteristics of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the national soil. Total PAHs (the sum of 16 PAH concentrations) and carcinogenic PAHs (the sum of seven carcinogenic PAH concentrations) were $8.50{\sim}3,437.16{\mu}g/kg$ and $2.94{\sim}2,136.96{\mu}g/kg$, respectively. The concentration of benzo(a)pyrene, one of the contaminants regulated by the soil quality standard in the nation, was $ND{\sim}924.73{\mu}g/kg$. Its maximum value of $924.73{\mu}g/kg$ was detected in railroad (Region 3) and is approximately 13% of the standard value for Region 3 (i.e., 7 mg/kg). We also investigated the characteristics of contamination sources of PAHs in soil of the upland, forests, roads, and railroads, examining the fraction distribution of PAHs concentration by the number of benzene rings against the total PAHs concentration. The results demonstrate that the mean fraction of 4~6-ring PAHs against total PAHs concentration in soil was in the range of 51.8~80.7% with relative abundance of high-molecular PAHs, showing that the origin of contamination is under the category of combustion sources. When the molecular indices (Flu/(Flu/Pyr), Ant/(Ant+Phe), InP/(InP+BP), and BaA/(BaA+Chr)) were applied, they were also categorized as petroleum-based combustion sources. The individual PAH concentrations in soil by the land use were grouped into Regions 1, 2, and 3, which are statistically treated and are the parts of the national category system of soil quality standard. As a result, the concentration level of 16 PAHs was $0.02{\sim}2.63{\mu}g/kg$ in Region 1, $0.05{\sim}4.26{\mu}g/kg$ in Region 2, and $2.36{\sim}178.27{\mu}g/kg$ in Region 3. The concentration level of 6 carcinogenic PAHs was 14.2~320.4% against that of benzo(a)pyrene in Region 3 and sites of recycling waste sleepers. Considering that there were similarities among PAHs in terms of structures and toxicities, it would be recommended to review other types of carcinogenic PAHs together with benzo(a)pyrene when developing the soil quality standards in the nation.

본 연구에서는 페놀에 적응된 미생물을 순수 분리하여 다고리 방향족 탄화수소(PAH)분해에 이용 하고자 하였으며, PAH분해하는 과정에서 나타나는 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 분리된 미생물은 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia로 동정되었으며, 페놀의 분해경향은 낮은 농도에서 빠른 분해속도 상수값을 가지며, 미생물의 성장률은 0.1447mg cell/mg phenol로 나타났다. 나프탈렌과 페놀의 공존 시 페놀의 분해를 선호하고, 나프탈렌 및 페난스렌을 성장기질로 이용하는 특성을 가지고 있으나, 파이렌과 같이 4개 이상의 고리구조를 가진 PAH의 분해는 이루어지지 않았다. PAH 분해경로는 dioxygenation에 의한 두개의 hydroxy group이 C-1과 C-2에 첨가된 상태에서 ortho cleavage가 일어나고 순차적으로 Decarboxylation이 일어나는 것으로 판단되었다.

This study was carried out to characterize the ambient levels of PAH concentrations in Pohang city, where steel industry has been intensively developed. A large amount of PAH emissions from steel production and related industries in Pohang are concerned about the environmental health hazards of nearby residents. TSP samples were seasonally collected during 10 days at four sites in Pohang from April to December 2010. Each sample was collected for 24 hours using high-volume air sampler. All samples were extracted by $soxtec^{TM}$ before concentration of 1.0 mL. The concentrates were analyzed by GC/MS. The prevailing wind direction was southwest and west-southwest in Pohang during the measurement period. Variations of TSP concentrations appeared to be similar between four sites. The highest TSP concentration was found in fall, while the lowest in summer. The highest PAH concentration was found at an industrial site, while the lowest at a residential/commercial site. In the case of BaP, the average concentration at the industrial site was $0.63{\pm}0.66ng/m^3$, which was approximately 2 times of the residential/commercial site. The paired t-test (p<0.05) showed significant differences between industrial and residential area. Particulate PAH concentrations were higher in the winter and lower in the summer. The concentrations of BaP in winter were 2~10 times higher than those in the other three seasons. This study clearly demonstrated the impact of steel industry on the elevated levels of PAH in Pohang city.

With advancement of infrared space telescopes during the past decade, infrared wavelength regime has been a focal point to study various properties of galaxies, such as stellar mass, dust contents and dust-hidden star formation with respect to evolution of galaxies. Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) have emerged as one of the most important features since these features dominate mid-infrared spectra of galaxies. These PAH features provide a great handle to calibrate star formation rates and diagnose ionized states of grains. However, PAH $3.3{\mu}m$ feature has not been studied as much as other PAH features since it is weaker than others and resides outside of Spitzer's capability. Still its calibration and characterization are important since it will be the only PAH feature accessible by JWST for high-z galaxies. AKARI mJy Unbiased Survey of Extragalactic Sources in 5MUSES (AMUSES) intends to take advantage of AKARI's capability of spectroscopy on 2 to 5 ${\mu}m$ to provide an unbiased library of 44 sample galaxies selected from a parent sample of 5MUSES, one of Spitzer legacy projects. For these 3.3mm flux limited sample galaxies whose redshifts range between 0 < z <1, AMUSES will calibrate PAH $3.3{\mu}m$ as a SFR while measuring ratios between PAH features and investigating Bra's potential as a SFR indicator. We present preliminary results of AMUSES.

현이차 미분 형광 분광광도법을 이용하여 울산만 해양 저질토양중의 PAHs를 n-hexane용매로 추출하여 11종의 PAHs를 동시 정량분석하였다. Acenaphthene (Ace), anthracene (Anth), benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), benz(a)anthracene (BaA), benzo(b)fluoranthene (BbFt), benzo(k)fluoranthene (BkFt), chrysene (Chry), perylene (Per), phenanthrene (Phen), pyrene (Pyr) 및 fluoranthrene (Ft) 등을 정량분석 하였다. 이들 성분들의 검정선은 대략 0.15~166 ppb의 농도범위에서 직선관계를 보였으며, 0.999이상의 좋은 직선 상관계수를 보였다. 울산만의 해양 저질 토양 (sediment)에 함유된 11종의 PAHs 총량은 68.8 ng/g ~ 324.4 ng/g의 농도범위로 함유되어 있었다. 또한 PAHs의 총량은 울산만의 안쪽으로 갈수록 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 특히 Pyr과 BaA 등과 같은 4고리화합물의 함량비가 높았다.

Surfactant-enhanced electrokinetic (EK) process was investigated to remove polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from low-permeable soils. Phenanthrene and kaolinite were selected as a representative PAH and a model soil, respectively. A nonionic surfactant Tergitol 15-S-12 was applied to improve the solubility of phenanthrene and sodium chloride was used as an electrolyte at the various concentrations from 0.001 to 0.1M. The addition of electrolyte affected both the removal efficiency and operation cost. When electrolyte was introduced, the electrical potential gradient became low and thus power consumption was reduced. However, as electrolyte concentration increased, the electroosmotic flow also decreased, so the removal efficiency of contaminant decreased. Therefore, the removal efficiency and power consumption should be considered simultaneously to determine the iptimum surfactant concentration, so a relatively lower concentration of electrolyte than certain value is desired.
