철도의 토양오염은 크게 총석유계탄화수소(total petroleum hydrocarbon, TPH)에 의한 오염과 중금속류에 의한 오염으로 구분할 수 있다. 이중 TPH 오염은 디젤과 윤활유에 의해서 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 철도 윤활유 유래 오염토양을 정화하기 위해 토양세척방법, 화학적 산화법, 초음파 추출법의 타당성을 연구하였다. 디젤 유래 오염 토양의 토양세척에 많이 사용되는 비이온성 계면활성제는 윤활유 유래 오염 토양의 정화에는 효과적이지 않았다. 다양한 종류의 알코올과 계면활성제를 함께 사용한 경우, 계면활성제만 사용한 경우보다 효과적이었다. 따라서 TPH 오염 철도 토양의 TPH의 오염원에 따라 다른 방법을 적용하는 것이 정화효율을 높일 수 있다.

본 연구는 유류로 오염된 토양의 정화를 위한 생물자극법에서 퇴비의 시용효과를 알아보기 위해 실시되었다. TPH로 오염된 토양에 퇴비를 수준별로 처리 한 후 TPH 함량 변화를 관찰 한 결과, 퇴비 처리량이 증가 할수록 토양 내 TPH 함량이 감소하는 경향이 나타났다. TPH 분해율을 알아보고자 퇴비 처리수준에 따른 TPH 함량 변화를 1차와 2차 kinetics 모델에 적용하여 결정계수(R²)를 비교 한 결과 second order kinetic 모델의 결정계수 값이 잘 적용되었다. 퇴비를 처리하였을 때 seond-order kinetic 모델의 reaction rate constant 값은 퇴비를 30 Mg/ha 이상 처리하였을 때 무처리 보다 4배 정도 높게 나타났으며, 퇴비 처리 수준이 높아질수록 그 값은 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 퇴비의 처리량을 증가시킴에 따라 토양 내 미생물의 수는 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 또한 퇴비의 처리량은 토양 내 미생물 수와 TPH 함량의 변화와 밀접한 관계가 있음을 보여주었다. 따라서 TPH로 오염된 토양 내 적합한 양의 퇴비 처리는 토양 내 미생물 수를 증가시켜 TPH 함량의 감소를 가속화시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In order to treat soil contaminated with high percentages of water and petroleum, the combined microwave and thermal desorption process was studied, which was composed of the consecutive connection of two pre-treatment processes. For the thickness of the contaminated soil layer on the transfer conveyor belt, the optimal total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) removal rate was studied with respect to the duration of microwave exposure in the consecutive process combined with thermal desorption. The TPH removal rate when the contaminated soil layer thickness was 1 cm at 6 kW of microwave power was 80%. The removals rates for 2 and 3 cm soil layer thicknesses were both 70%. Under identical experimental conditions, the TPH removal rate for the microwave pre-treatment, when considering the soil particle size, was over 70%. The lowest TPH removal rate was achieved with a particle diameter of 2.35 mm. For contaminated soil with 30% water content, 6 kW and a thermal desorption temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ were the optimal operational conditions for the removal of THP. However, considering the fuel consumption cost, 4 kW and a thermal desorption temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ would be the most economic conditions.

본 연구의 목적은 석유계탄화수소 오염토양의 처리에 있어서 초기농도 및 영양소의 영향을 평가하는 것이었다. 본 연구에서 이용한 반응기는 용기형태의 슬러리상 생물반응기였다. 디이젤연료 오염토양의 처리 및 미생물성장에 대한 수행결과는 실험실규모에서 얻어졌다. TPH(총 석유계 탄화수소)의 거동 및 미생물성장은 생물학적 제거율과 연관하여 평가되었다. 50,000및 100,000 mg TPH/kg soil의 초기부하수준에 대한 영향이 연구되었다. 두 반응기에서의 수행결과는 각각 90.5%와 90.8%의 총체적인 TPH제거율 나타내었다. 그러나 50,000mg TPH/kg soil의 초기농도가 적용된 반응기가 초기농도 100,000mg TPH/kg soil이 적용된 반응기에 비하여 휘발에 의한 제거를 제외한 순수한 생물학적 TPH제거율에 있어서 우수한 결과를 보여주었다. 다른 영양소량이 두 반응기에 적용되었음에도 불구하고 미생물성장율에 있어서 현저한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 그러나 본 결과에서 고려되어야 할 중요한 요소는 두 반응기에 대하여 초기농도가 다르게 적용되었다는 것이다. 초기농도가 영양소가 첨가되지 않은 반응기에 비하여 두배나 높았음에도 불구하고 총체적 및 생물학적 TPH제거율에 있어서 영양소가 첨가된 반응기는 그렇지않은 반응기에 비하여 뛰어난 결과를 보여주었다.

본 연구에서는 마이크로파 조사를 통하여 디젤오염토양의 TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) 제거양상을 살펴보고자 하였다. 건조토양을 마이크로파로 조사하였을 때 토양 내 온도의 상승은 완만하였으나 수분이 공급된 상태에서 온도 상승이 급격하게 나타났다. 함수량이 20% 이내 범위에서는 수분함량이 증가할수록 온도가 상승하였으나 20% 이상에서는 오히려 온도가 저하되었다. 100~700 W의 전력량으로 마이크로파를 조사한 후 각각의 TPH의 제거량을 확인하였을 때 300 W 이상의 범위에서는 전력량이 높아짐에도 TPH 제거량에 차이가 많지 않았다. 초기 수분량 20%에서 마이크로 조사 시 최종 TPH 제거량은 60%로 나타났으나 추가적으로 수분을 공급하여 토양 내 함수량을 일정하게 유지하였을 때 약 25%의 TPH 제거 증대효과가 나타났다. 이는 마이크로파를 이용할 때 반응이 지속됨에 따라 수분손실과 더불어 온도가 감소하므로 토양 내 함수량을 유지하는 것이 효율적인 TPH제거를 위해 중요한 요인이 될 수 있다는 것을 나타낸다.

Quantitation methods of total petroleum hydrocarbons to determinate oil contaminated level in soil were discussed. Extraction characteristics of several pretreatment methods and practical detection limit and reappearances in gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. with each pretreatment method were investigated. The obtained results showed that the newly adopted quantitation method and mechanical shaking extraction method using methanol with extraction solvent are more practical and applicable to real sample than the conventional methods. In applying these methods to gasoline, kerosene, fuel oil which are major source of soil contamination, the practical quantitation limit and % relative standard deviation was able to determine with range of 2.5 - 10 ppm, 5 - 7 ％.

The application of microwave technology has been investigated in the remediation of diesel-contaminated soil. The paper deals with economic assessment by means of cost analysis and degradation characteristics at different microwave powers for total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) in diesel contaminated soils. The soils from S Mountain around the D University were sampled. The samples were screened with 2.0 mm mesh and dried for 6 hours before the diesel was added into the dried soils. The diesel-contaminated soil (3,300 mg THP/kg soil) was prepared with diesel (S Co.). The drying process was carried out in a microwave oven, a standard household appliance with a 2,450 MHz frequency and 700 W of power. The experiments were conducted from 0 to 20 minutes as the microwave powers increased from 350W to 500W to 700W. The concentrations of TPH were analysed using a gas chromatography/mass spectrometer (GC/MS). The initial concentration of TPH was 3,300 mg TPH/kg soil. The weight of contaminated soil was 200g. The concentration of TPH was decreased to 1,828 mg TPH/kg soil (44.7%), 1,347 mg TPH/kg soil (59.2%) and 1,014 mg TPH/kg soil (69.3%) at 350W, 500W and 700W for 15 minutes respectively. In addition, the curve was best fit with first order kinetics using the least-square method. The ranges of a first order rate constant k and r-square were $0.0298{\sim}0.0375min^{-1}$ and $0.9373{\sim}0.9541$ respectively.

In this study, the identity and distribution of plants and the structure of their associated rhizobacterial communities were examined in an oil-contaminated site. The number of plant species that formed a community or were scattered was 24. The species living in soil highly contaminated with total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) (9,000-4,5000 mg/g-soil) were Cynodon dactylon, Persicaria lapathifolia, and Calystegia soldanella (a halophytic species). Among the 24 plant species, the following have been known to be effective for oil removal: C. dactylon, Digitaria sanguinalis, and Cyperus orthostachyus. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) profile analysis showed that the following pairs of plant species had highly similar (above 70%) rhizobacterial community structures: Artemisia princeps and Hemistepta lyrata; C. dactylon and P. lapathifolia; Carex kobomugi and Cardamine flexuosa; and Equisetum arvense and D. sanguinalis. The major groups of rhizobacteria were Beta-proteobacteria, Gamma-proteobacteria, Chloroflexi, Actinobacteria, and unknown. Based on DGGE analysis, P. lapathifolia, found for the first time in this study growing in the presence of high TPH, may be a good species for phytoremediation of oil-contaminated soils and in particular, C. soldanella may be useful for soils with high TPH and salt concentrations. Overall, this study suggests that the plant roots, regardless of plant species, may have a similar influence on the bacterial community structure in oil-contaminated soil.

In this study, the TPH(Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) contamination and microbial ecological characteristics in petroleum-contaminated site were investigated through the correlation among the vertical TPH contamination distribution of the site, the geochemical characteristics, and the indigenous microbial ecology. The high TPH concentration showed in the vicinity of 3~4 m or less which is thought to be affected by vertical movement due to the impervious clay layer. In addition, the TPH concentration was found to have a positive correlation with Fe²⁺, TOC concentration, and the number of petroleum-degrading bacteria, and a negative correlation with the microbial community diversity. The microbial community according to the vertical distribution of TPH showed that Proteobacteria and Firmicutes at the phylum level were dominant in this study area as a whole, and they competed with each other. In particular, it was confirmed that the difference in the microbial community was different due to the difference in the degree of vertical TPH contamination. In addition, the genera Acidovorax, Leptolinea, Rugoshibacter, and Smithella appeared dominant in the samples in which TPH was detected, which is considered to be the microorganisms involved in the degradation of TPH in this study area. It is expected that this study can be used as an important data to understand the contamination characteristics and biogeochemical and microbial characteristics of these TPH-contaminated sites.

This study reviewed standard operation procedures for fractionation and analytical methods of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in north america and european countries to aid proper establishment of risk assessment protocols associated with TPH exposure in Korea. In current, the TPH fraction methods established by Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) and Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon Criteria Working Group (TPHCWG) are most frequently employed worldwide. Both methods were developed on the basis of direct exposure of TPH from soil, although the method by TPHCWG also took into account the mobility of TPH. Volatile and extractable fractions of petroleum hydrocarbons were analyzed either separately or together. TPH fractionation methods were evaluated based on conservative toxicity values considering the uncertainty of risk assessment in light of current standard protocol for analyzing soil contaminants in Korea, and it was concluded that the method developed by MassDEP is more appropriate.
