Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES) system can be very cost-effective and renewable energy sources, depending on site-specific parameters and load characteristics. In order to develop an ATES system which has certain hydrogeological characteristics, understanding of the thermo hydraulic processes of an aquifer is necessary for a proper design of an aquifer heat storage system under given conditions. The thermo hydraulic transfer for heat storage is simulated using FEFLOW according to two sets of pumping and waste water reinjection scenarios of heat pump operation in a two layered confined aquifer. In the first set of model, the movement of the thermal front and groundwater level are simulated by changing the locations of injection and pumping well in seasonal cycle. However, in the second set of model the simulation is performed in the state of fixing the locations of pumping and injection well. After 365 days simulation period, the temperature distribution is dominated by injected water temperature and the distance from injection well. The small temperature change is appears on the surface compared to other slices of depth because the first layer has very low porosity and the transfer of thermal energy are sensitive at the porosity of each layer. The groundwater levels and temperature changes in injection and pumping wells are monitored to validate the effectiveness of the used heat pump operation method and the thermal interference between wells is analyzed.

Ground source heat pumps are clean, energy-efficient and environment-friendly systems cooling and heating. Although the initial cost of ground source heat pump system is higher than that of air source heat pump, it is now widely accepted as an economical system since the installation cost can be returned within an short period of time due to its high efficiency. In the present study, performances of ground source compound hybrid heat pump system applied to a large community building are simulated. The system design and operation process appropriate for the surrounding circumstance guarantee the high benefit of the heat pump system applied to a large community building. If among several renewable energy sources, ground, river, sea, waste water source are chosen as available alternative energies are combined, COP of the system can be increased largely and hybrid heat pump system can reduced the fuel cost.

방사선장 하에서의 탈기막 재질의 물성에 미치는 방사선의 영향에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. PP에 미치는 방사선속을 계산하기 위해 MCNP4A Code를 이용하였으며 MCNP4A Code를 이용한 광자선속을 계산하기 위하여 탈기장치와 PP 막을 봉 구조로 규격화하였다. 양단차폐 계통에 사용되는 탈기막 재질인 PP의 변형은 계통수의 방사능이 매우 낮기 때문에 거의 없을 것으로 평가되었으며 작업자의 피폭도 무시할 정도인 것으로 판단되었다. 검토결과, 원자력발전소의 원자로 계통수 처리를 위해 방사선장하에서 노출되는 폴리프로필렌 탈기막의 재질은 건전성이 그대로 유지될 수 있음을 평가하였다.

Serving as an excellent adsorbent and inorganic ion exchanger in the water purification field, zeolite 4A has in this work presented a strong capability for purifying radioactive waste, such as $Sr^{2+}$, $Cs^+$, and $Co^{2+}$ in water. During the processes of decontamination and decommissioning of suspended solids and organics in low-level radioactive wastewater, the purification performance of zeolite 4A has been studied. Under ambient temperature and neutral condition, zeolite 4A absorbed simulated radionuclides such as $Sr^{2+}$, $Cs^+$, and $Co^{2+}$ with an absorption rate of almost 90%. Additionally, in alkaline condition, the adsorption percentage even approached 98.7%. After conducting research on suspended solids and organics of zeolite 4A for the treatment of radionuclides, it was found that the suspended clay was conducive to absorption, whereas the absorption of organics in solution was determined by the species of radionuclides and organics. Therefore, zeolite 4A has considerable potential in the treatment of radioactive wastewater.

This study investigated environmental assessments of leachate containing formaldehyde from medium density fiberboard (MDF) disposed in laboratory-scale simulated landfills. Environmental impact assessment of leachate was conducted by measuring formaldehyde, toxicity, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), bacterial enumeration, and pH. Amount of formaldehyde in leachate from MDF in soil decreased to the level of soil only treatment by 28 days, and toxicity decreased as the amount of formaldehyde decreased. BOD and COD levels in leachate from the treatments containing MDF exceeded permissible discharge levels of BOD or COD throughout the experimental period. The pH levels of all treatment were within permissible discharge range except on day 0. Fewer bacteria were observed in leachate from MDF in soil treatment than other treatments (MDF only, cured UF resin in soil, and soil only). Consequently, the leachate from disposal of MDF in soil detrimentally affect on environment. However, soil buffered formaldehyde leaching and pH on leachate in this study. Waste MDF may be required the pre-water soaking treatment for leaching formaldehyde to reclaim on land.

본 연구에서는 국내 해안지역에 존재하는 카드뮴을 산업 폐기물인 제강슬래그를 이용하여 제거하고자, 제강슬래그의 카드뮴 제거 성능을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 회분식 실험으로 등온흡착 실험과 동적흡착 실험을 수행하였다. 등온 흡착 실험을 통해 제강슬래그의 카드뮴 제거는 Langmuir 모델이 Freundlich에 비해 잘 맞음을 확인하였고 최대 흡착량(${\beta}$)을 계산할 수 있었다. 동적흡착 실험결과의 경우, 유사이차 모델을 이용해 해석하였고 카드뮴의 초기농도가 높을수록 평형 흡착량 ($q_e$)은 증가하였고 반응상수 ($k_2$)와 초기반응속도 (h)는 줄어들었다. 모사해수 조건에서 $q_e$는 증류수 조건과 큰 차이가 없었지만 $k_2$와 h는 증류수에 비해 줄어들었다. 또한, 유사이차 모델을 통해 예측된 $q_e$이 등온흡착 실험에서 구한 평형 흡착량 ($C_s$)과 유사해 동적흡착 실험결과로 등온흡착 실험결과를 예측하는 것이 가능함을 확인하였으며 유사이차 모델을 이용해 목표 제거율에 도달하는 반응시간을 계산할 수 있었다.

A series of laboratory-scale corrosion experiments was carried out to observe the effect of dissolved oxygen (DO) in the presence of other water quality parameters, such as hardness, Cl-, and pH using various pipe materials. In addition, a simulated loop system was installed at a water treatment plant for pilot-scale experiment. Laboratory-scale experiment showed that corrosion rates for galvanized steel pipe (GSP), carbon steel pipe (CSP), and ductile cast iron pipe (DCIP) were decreased to 72%, 75%, and 91% by reducing DO concentration from 9${\pm}$0.5 mg/L to 2${\pm}$0.5 mg/L. From the pilot scale experiment, it was further identified that the average ionization rate of zinc in GSP decreased from 0.00533 to 0.00078 mg/$cm^2$/d by controlling the concentration of DO. The reduction of average ionization rate for copper pipe (CP) and stainless steel pipe (SSP) were 71.4% for Cu and 63.5% for Fe, respectively. From this study, it was concluded that DO could be used as a major parameter in controlling the corrosion of water pipes.

현재, 한국원자력연구원은 부산 기장에 연구용 원자로(Ki-Jang Research Reactor, KJRR)를 건설 계획하고 있다. 원자로를 운영하면 중 저준위 방사성폐기물이 발생하므로 방사성 폐기물을 안전하게 처리 하는 것이 중요하다. 현재, 다양한 형태의 방사성 폐기물을 처리 할 수 있는 시멘트 고화 방법을 일반적으로 사용하고 있으며, 방사성 폐기물 처분시설 인수 기준(압축 강도, 유리수, 침수 및 침출시험 등)을 만족해야 한다. 특히, 폐기물에 함유된 방사성 세슘이 유출 될 경우 범 국제적인 문제를 야기하므로, 고화체 인수 기준 중에서 침출시험이 가장 중요한 인자이다. 시멘트 고화 방법은 다른 고화 방법 보다 공정이 간단하며 비용이 적게 들지만, 침출 저항성이 낮다. 이에 본 연구는 시멘트 고화체 세슘 침출 저항성 증진을 위하여 기장 연구용 원자로(KJRR) 모사폐액과 대표적인 세슘 흡착제인 제올라이트와 황토를 혼합하여 기장로 모의폐액 시멘트를 제조하였다. 제올라이트와 황토가 시멘트 고화체와 결합되어 있는 것을 SEM-EDS를 통하여 정량적으로 확인하였다. 침출 시험은 ANS 16.1 방법에 의해 90일동안 진행하였다. 기장로 모의폐액 시멘트의 세슘(3000 ppm)을 첨가하여 90일간의 침출시험 후 침출수의 세슘 농도 분석 결과, 제올라이트와 황토가 포함된 모의폐액 시멘트는 제올라이트와 황토를 첨가하지 않은 대조군에 비해 최대 27.90%, 21.08%의 세슘 침출 저항성 정도를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 제올라이트와 황토가 포함된 기장로 모의폐액 시멘트는 인수 기준(압축강도, 유리수 유무, 침수 및 침출 지수)을 통과 하는 것을 확인하였다.

Gravity, magnetic and VLF surveys were conducted to investigat the structural stability and hazards associated with the Ubong landfill in Pohang City, which has been built to dump industrial wastes. In 1994, the collapse of a bank happened in the 6th landfill site due to sudden heavy rain, and a large quantity of waste materials flowed out to the nearby landfill sites, factories and roads. We used $10{\times}10m$ resolution DEM data for gravity reductions. The maximum variation of the terrain effect in the survey area is about 0.5 mgal and the terrain effect is large in the vicinity of bank boundary. The Bouguer gravity anomaly map shows the effect due to the variatino of thickness and type of waste materials. The small negative gravity anomaly increases from the 9th site to the 6th site. The small negative gravity anomaly of the 9th site reflects the relatively shallow dumping depth of average 14.5 m in this site and increased density of waste materials by the repeated stabilization process of soil overlaying. The 6th site is located at the center of the former valley and rainfall and groundwater are expected to flow from south-east to north-west. Therefore, considering the previous accident of mixing waste and bank materials at the north-west boundary of the landfill, there may be some environmental problems of leakage of contaminated water and bank stability. The complex inversion technique using Simulated annealing and Marquardt-Levenberg methods was applied to calculate three-dimensional density distribution from gravity data. In the case of 6th site, it is apparent that the landfill had been dumped in four sectors. However, most part of the 9th site and showed that high magnetic industrial wastes were concentrated in the 6th site. The result of magnetic survey showing low magnetic anomalies along the boundaries of two sites is similar to that of gravity data. The VLF data also reveals four divided sectors in the 6th site, and overall anomaly trend indicates the directio of former valley.

현재까지 개발된 고준위폐기물 심지층처분장의 열-수리-역학적 복합거동 해석을 위한 전산 코드의 현황을 조사하고, 문헌에 보고된 각 코드에 의한 계산치와 현장실험 측정치의 비교 결과를 이용하여, 기존 전산 코드들의 신뢰도를 분석하였다. 개발된 전산코드들은 완충재가 없는 처분장에서는 붕괴열에 따른 암반의 열-수리-역학적 거동을 비교적 잘 모사하였으나, 포화 경암층에 위치한 완충재가 존재하는 처분장의 공학적방벽시스템 내에서 일어나는 열-수리-역학적 복합거동의 예측은 만족스럽지 못하였다. 현재 제안된 열-수리-역학적 복합거동 해석모델을 고준위폐기물 처분장 공학적방벽시스템의 거동 해석에 적용하기 위해서는 완충재 내의 수분함량 및 전 압력 분포를 보다 정교하게 모사할 수 있도록 수학적 모델의 개선이 필요하다.
