본 연구는 한강 상수원 수변지역의 실제 적용에 앞서 Bench scale의 실험을 통해 식생여과대의 단점을 보완하고 보다 효율적인 비점오염물질 저감을 위해 대조군, 모래+자갈, 여재, 자갈의 토양여과대를 조성하여 토양의 침투능력을 향상시키고 효율을 비교하고자 하였다. 실험 결과 토양여과대에서 단면 및 하부로의 침투를 증가시킨 결과 대조군과 비교하였을 때 토양여과대의 평균 표면 유출부하량과 비교하여 $8.2{\sim}40.1%$까지 감소한 것으로 나타나 토양여과대 조성을 통한 표면 유출부하량의 감소 효과가 비교적 양호하게 나타난 것으로 판단된다. 오염물질의 유입부하에 따른 총유출부하량을 통해 각각의 토양여과대에 대한 저감 효과를 비교해 본 결과, 전체적인 제거율은 SS $84.5{\sim}92.5%$, BOD $67.9{\sim}80.6%$, T-N $43.4{\sim}76.6%$), T-P $40.6{\sim}87.4%$, Cu $28.3{\sim}48.1%$, Fe $92.1{\sim}97.7%$, Pb $81.4{\sim}97.3%$인 것으로 조사되었고, 각각의 토양여과대에 대한 오염물질 저감효과를 비교해 본 결과, 여재, 모래+자갈, 자갈의 순으로 저감효과가 뛰어난 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 기존의 식생여과대에 비해 토양층을 변화시켜 토양의 침투능을 향상시킨 토양여과대가 비점오염물질 저감에 보다 효과적이며, 하천에 가해지는 오염부하량을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단되기 때문에 차후 현장 적용 시 보다 실효성 있는 비점오염 저감대책이 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Soil filters are commonly used to protect the soil structures from eroding and piping. When filters are clogged by fine particles which are progressively accumulated, these may lead to buildup of excessive pore pressures also leading to instability in subsurface infrastructure. A filter in the backfill of a retaining wall, a filter adjacent to the lining of a tunnel, or a filter in the bottom of an earth dam can be clogged by transported fine particles. This causes reduction in the permeability, which in turn may lead to intolerable decreases in their drainage capacity. In this thesis, the extent of this reduction is addressed using results from both experimental and theoretical investigations. In the experimental phase, the permeability reduction of a filter is monitored when an influent of constant concentration flows into the filter (uncoupled test), and when the water flow through the soil-filter system to simulate an in-situ condition (coupled test), respectively. The results of coupled and uncoupled test are compared with among others. In the theoretical phase of the investigation, a representative elemental volume of the soil filter was modeled as an ensemble of capillary tubes and the permeability reduction due to physical clogging was simulated using basic principles of flow in cylindrical tubes. In general, it was found that the permeability was reduced by at least one order of magnitude, and that the results from the uncoupled test and theoretical investigations were in good agreement. It is observed that the amount of deposited particles of the coupled test matches fairly well with that of the uncoupled test, which indicates that the prediction of permeability reduction is possible by preforming the uncoupled test instead of the coupled test, and/or by utilizing the theoretical model.

본 연구에서는 식생여과대에 있어서 토양층의 역할에 주목하였으며, 토양 침투량이 증가될 수 있는 구조로 토양층을 변형하여 일반적인 식생여과대에서의 오염저감효과와 비교 분석하였다. 따라서 연구의 최종 목적은 토양층 변화를 통한 식생여과대의 수질개선효과를 일반적인 토양층으로 구성된 식생여과대와 비교, 검토함으로써 보다 효과적인 식생여과대를 조성하고자 하는 것이다. 실험분석 결과, 토양층 변화를 접목시킨 식생여과대는 일반 식생여과대에 비해 표면유출에서 높은 오염물질 저감효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 표면유출수 일부가 정류벽을 통과한 후 재상승하여 표면으로 유출되었기 때문으로 판단된다. 그러나 계단형에서의 하부유출수의 경우, 입경이 큰 모래와 자갈을 통과하여 유출이 일어나기 때문에 직선형 식생여과대보다 오염저감효율은 다소 낮게 나타났다. 이를 오염물질 유출부하량의 개념으로 파악해 보면, 하부유출량이 전체 유출유량에 대한 기여도가 계단형(4%)에서 직선형(2%)보다 높기 때문에 계단형에서의 오염물질 저감부하량이 직선형에 비하여 매우 높게 나타났다. 따라서 정류벽과 표면층 변화를 통해 침투량을 증가시킨 식생여과대는 일반적인 식생여과대보다 저감효과가 크고 식생여과대 적용에 필요한 여러 조건(토양의 침투성, 여과대의 넓이 및 길이, 유속 등)을 만족하지 않더라도 충분한 저감효과를 발휘할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Durability of tunnel drains is important, because the accumulation of groundwater around the tunnel due to clogging of filter or reduction of discharge capacity of drain causes reduction of the life time of tunnel linings. In this paper, clogging and discharge capacity of drain and filter of tunnels are evaluated using a gradient ratio test and filter design criteria. The results of the gradient ratio test showed that gradient ratio(GR) is high when fine content is high in the soil samples and equivalent opening size(EOS) of filter materials is small. Measured GR was less than allowable critical gradinet ratio : 3.0, which is the clogging criteria of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Environment problem has been arising in many countries. Especially, soil erosion has been deemed as one of the biggest issues because sediment causes muddy water and pollutants, such as agricultural chemicals, flow in the stream with this sediment. Many studies, regarding soil loss and non-point source pollution from watershed, has been performed while serious problem has been known. Soil loss occurred in most agricultural area by rainfall and runoff. It makes hydraulic structure unstable, causes environmental economical problems because muddy water destroys ecosystem and causes intake water deterioration. As revealing serious effects of muddy water by sediment, many researches have been doing with various methods. Hydraulic structures establishments such as soil erosion control dams and grit chamber are common. Vegetative filter strip is investigated in this study because vegetative filter strip is designed for reducing sediment from upland areas of the watershed, and it has many functions, not only sediment reduction but also runoff water quality improvement and wildlife habitat. With these positive functions of the vegetative filter strip, the study about vegetative filter strip has been increasing for reducing sediment because it is more effective than hydraulic structures from an environmental perspective. But the sediment trapping efficiency by vegetative filter strip, needs to be investigated and designed first. Therefore the model, VFSMOD-W, was used in this study as it can estimate sediment trapping efficiency of vegetative filter strip under various field, vegetation, weather condition. Sensitive factors to sediment trapping efficiency are studied with VFSMOD-W, and sediment trapping efficiency equation has been derived using two most sensitive factors. It is thought that the equation suggested in this study can be used in Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), to overcome the limit of SWAT filter strip module, which is based solely on filter strip width.

Cultivation on reclaimed tidal land is often difficult in the problem such as high salinity of soil, bad drainage because of high level of groundwater. Many researches have been made efforts to solve these problems, but effect of improvement is low and practicality is insufficient. In this study, through numerical analysis of the transport properties of salt and water, we suggested underground drainage of the reclaimed land and the desalination promotion methods in the soil. The results of characteristic of desalination and seepage analysis of underdrain show that underdrain is able to increase twice of the underground seepage amount when installing perforated pipe with horizontal filter (width 50cm) more than installing only the perforated pipe. For soil which coefficient of permeability is below $1{\times}10^{-4}cm/s$ that desalination with pond water is not possible, a method to increase the permeability of the soil is necessary. Therefore, it was concluded that application of underdrain using perforated pipe with horizontal filter would be low-cost and practical.

This study was conducted to develop a nondestructive grouping system for soil organic matter using visible (VIS) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic method. The artificial light was irradiated on the cut soil surface at 15 to 20 cm depths to reduce the errors of light at open field. The reflectance energy from the cut soil surface was measured to group the soil organic matter using VIS/NIR light sensor with narrow band pass filter. From reflectance spectra of soil samples, the sensitive wavelengths for measuring the soil organic matter were selected and compared to previous research results. The grouping system for soil organic matter consisted of light sensor with band pass filter measuring the reflectance energy of the cut soil surface, global positing system (GPS), analog-to-digital (AD) converter, computer and operating software. The regression models to predict the soil organic matter were developed and evaluated. From field test, the accuracies of the developed light sensor system were 81.3% for five-stage grouping of the soil organic matters and 91.0% for three-stages grouping of the soil organic matters, respectively. It could be possible to support the decision making for variable rate applications with the developed grouping system for soil organic matter in precision agriculture.

The mechanism of soil-geotextile system has been studied among researchers since the application of geotextile as a replacement of graded granular filters is rapidly growing. The interaction of soils with geotextile is rather complicated so that its design criteria are mostly based on empiricism. Hence, it is essential to study the characteristics of fine particles transport into geotextile induced by the groundwater flow In this study, the permeability reduction in the soil-filter system due to clogging phenomenon is evaluated. An extensive research program is performed using two typical weathered residual soils which are sampled at Shinnae-dong and Poi-dong area in Seoul. Two separate simulation tests with weathered residual soil are peformed: the one is the filtration test(cross-plane flow test): and the other is the drainage test(in-plane flow test). Needle punched non-woven geotextiles are selected since it is often used as a drainage material in the field. The compatibility of the soil-filter system is investigated with emphasis on the clogging phenomenon. The hydraulic behaviour of the soil-filter system is evaluated by changing several testing conditions.

In search of a method to achieve sustainable agricultural practices, a trickling filter was employed for the piggery wastewater treatment, where rice straw was the support medium in place of more commonly used materials. The filtrate from the trickling filter were applied to a soil, on which orchard grass (Dactylic glomerata L.) was grown followed by amendment of the treated straw medium. Orchard grass was cut twice, and growth parameters and yields were measured. Soil chemical properties before and after harvesting orchard grass were analyzed. Development of the forage crop was greatly enhanced by the application of the filtrate in terms of fresh weight, dry weight, and the absorption of nutrients. Better growth and higher nutrient uptake were found in the second cutting of the orchard grass. Organic matter content, ionic intensity, exchangeable cations, and phosphate of the soil increased with the application of the filtrate. The relative high concentrations of salts in the piggery trickling filtrate, expressed in electrical conductivity and content of sodium, exerted no detrimental effect on the crop and soil.
