The purpose of this study is to know the concept of Eco-industrial Park and How to use the thermal effluents from power plants. Thermal effluents, which use sea water for cooling, from power plants have been discharged with about $6{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ higher temperature than near sea area. Therefore, it could effect on the marine ecosystem as a external pressure factor that increase the artificial thermal load in near sea area. The applications of thermal effluents had been surveyed through the several internal and external cases for utilizing heat sources and reducing the thermal load. As the precedence research for applying, the amount of heat sources of thermal effluents was evaluated. When the thermal effluents was fully applied in heat sources and available heat, assume that use heating season by 12 hours a day of demanded available heat, it was possible to calculate total 198 Tcal of energy saving.

Recently, interest in alternative energy has been increasing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel consumption in accordance with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change(UNFCCC). Accordingly, there is a need to use waste heat that unused throughout industrial systems for lowering the concentration of energy on fossil fuels. In particular, government support projects for the energy recycling of agriculture and fisheries such as cultivation of tropical crops and aquaculture are being actively carried out by utilizing waste heat and thermal effluents caused from large-scale industrial complexes including power plants. The study was conducted on supplier (power plant), consumer (farmer) and stakeholders (constructor and local governments) of domestic demonstration areas using waste heat that is abandoned from the power plant in the form of thermal effluents. It investigated the overall improvement and feasibility of government funded projects through field interviews and questionnaire-type surveys. The results of this study are expected to provide basic directions for the operation of the project in terms of nationwide expansion and diffusion of the heat source supply project at horticultural greenhouse by utilizing the thermal effluents from power plant.

지난 10년(2000-2010)간 촬영된 Landsat-7 ETM+ 영상을 이용하여 동해남부에 위치한 고리원자력발전소 주변해역의 해표면 온도와 온배수의 계절 변동을 조사하였다. 그리고 조류와 조석 자료를 분석하여 온배수의 확산범위를 살펴보았다. 먼저 Landsat-7 ETM+ DN값과 NOAA AVHRR 해표면 수온을 이용한 1차 선형회귀분석을 통해 산출된 해표면 수온을 관측 수온과 비교 검증하였다. 그 결과 결정계수는 약 0.97 이상으로 높게 나타났으며, 평균제곱근 오차는 약 $1.05{\sim}1.24^{\circ}C$로 나타났다. 선형회귀분석식을 통해 산출된 Landsat-7 영상의 해표면 수온은 겨울철 $12{\sim}13^{\circ}C$, 봄철에는 $13{\sim}19^{\circ}C$, 여름과 가을철에는 $24{\sim}29^{\circ}C$, $16{\sim}24^{\circ}C$의 분포를 나타내었다. 방류 초기 온배수와 주변 해역과의 해표면 온도 차는 여름철을 제외하고는 $6{\sim}8^{\circ}C$의 차이를 보였으며, 여름철 8월에는 최대 $2^{\circ}C$정도 차이를 나타내었다. 온배수의 확산범위는 해표면 수온 $1^{\circ}C$ 이상의 상승 범위는 동서로 최대 7.56km, 남북으로는 8.43km로 나타났다. 확산면적은 최대 $11.65km^2$로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 원자력 발전소 주변지역의 해양환경 모니터링을 위한 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 온천 배수의 유입이 소형 하천의 부착조류군집에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 전북 고창군 석정온천에 발원하는 하천과 그 주변의 소형 하천을 대상으로 1996년 2월부터 1998년 9월까지 계절별로 조사하였다. 온천 배수의 유입이 직접 일어나는 지점에서는 저온기에 남조의 Oscillatoria와 Phormidium이 중심이 된 독특한 남조피막이 형성되었다. 특히, 부착조류의 출현 및 군집구조는 온천 배수의 영향 하천과 비영향 하천간에 뚜렷한 차이를 보였는데, 전체적으로 조사시기에 상관없이 규조의 높은 종 출현(전체의 58%)과 남조강의 높은 생물량(전체의 67%)이 대조적이었으며, 전자는 하천의 하류에 주로 분포하고, 후자는 집중적으로 상류에 분포하였다. 이러한 현상은 동계에 뚜렷하였으나, 계절이 전환되면서 보이지 않았다. 녹조와 유글레나류 등은 계절 및 지점에 큰 영향을 보이지 않았다. 대부분의 환경요인들은 하천방향을 따라 강하게 감소하였으나, 질산성 질소는 하천방향에 따라 다소 증가하였다. 본 조사하천은 온천 이용이 저온기에 집중됨으로서, 배출지점에 남조피막과 같은 독특한 하천생태계가 형성되지만, 하천방향에 따라 비영향 하천의 유입, 남조피막과 하천퇴적물과의 상호작용 등에 의한 화학물질의 빠른 감소로 하천의 하류로 갈수록 심한 오염현상은 발견되지 않았으나, 온천배수의 지속적인 유입이 이루어진다면, 하천의 퇴행적 천이가 빠르게 진행될 것으로 예상되었다.

A quantitative model was developed in order to estimate fishery production damage due to anthropogenically induced environmental changes. The model is described in the following equation, $Y_D=\frac{{\phi}_D}{{\phi}_G}[Y_0{\cdot}(t_p-t_0)-\frac{Y_0}{{\phi}_G}(1-e^{-{\phi}_G(t_p-t_0)})]$, where, $Y_D$ is annual amount of fishery production by nuclear power plant. ${\varphi}$ D and ${\varphi}$ G are instantaneous decreasing coefficient of fishery production by nuclear power plant and instantaneous decreasing coefficient of gross fishery production, respectively. $Y_0$ is annual mean fishery production without damages. $t_p$ is the present time, and $t_0$ is the starting time of damages. The model was applied to fishing grounds near a nuclear power plant on the east coast of Korea. Since fishery production damages have become bigger with increasing emission of thermal effluents from generators activities in the power plant, this factor has also been considered as, $\delta_{D_i}=\delta_D\({\sum}\limits_{i=0}^{n}\;W_i/W_T\)$, where, $\delta_{Di}$ is the cumulative damage rate in fishery production from generators, $\delta_D$ is the total cumulative damage rate in fishery production, $W_i$ is the emission amount of thermal effluents by generator i, and n is the number of generators in the nuclear power plant. This model can be used to conduct initial estimates of fishery production damages, before more detailed assessments are undertaken.

To understand the phytoplankton community in adjacent waters of Ulchin nuclear power plant (UNPP), abundance and the size fractionated $chl-\alpha$ concentrations were evaluated through seasonal interval sampling from April 2003 to February 2004. A total of 211 different phytoplankton species was observed and mean abundance of phytoplankton in each study period ranged from 244,286 to 1,221,779 cells $L^{-1}$. The contributions of microplankton $(>20\mu{m})$ to total phytoplankton abundance ranged from 42.5 to 83.6% (average 66.1%) and those of nanoplankton $(>20\mu{m})$ ranged from 16.4 to 57.5% (average 33.9%). Total chl-$\alpha$ concentrations of phytoplankton ranged from 0.52 to $2.26\mu{g}\;L^{-1}$. The contribution of chl-$\alpha$ concentrations of microplankton was higher than that of nano- and picoplankton through the study period with exception of July 2008. The results of abundances and $chl-\alpha$ concentrations suggest that microplankton has an important role in adjacent waters of UNPP. The diminution of abundances and $chl-\alpha$ concentrations of phytoplankton was observed after passage through the cooling water system, but it was gradually recovered by mixing with the ambient waters. Our results suggested that the influence of thermal discharges on phytoplankton should be restricted within narrow limits around outlet area of thermal effluents.

This study is intended to clarify the effects of heated effluents on intertidal benthic marine algal community in Korea. The species composition and biomass of marine algae at the discharge canal of Gori nuclear power plant on the southeastern coast of Korea were investigated seasonally from February 2001 to October 2006. As a result, 54 species (7 blue-green, 12 green, 9 brown and 26 red algae) of marine algae were found at the discharge canal during the past six years. In general, the number of species observed was abundant during winter to spring and less in autumn. Enteromorpha compressa, E. intestinalis, E. prolifera and Caulacanthus ustulatus were common species found more than 80% frequency during the study period. Seasonal fluctuations of mean biomass were 1-440 g dry wt m–2 and dominant species in biomass were Enteromorpha spp. (contribution to a total biomass proportion 28%), Sargassum horneri (14%) and Amphiroa beauvoisii (14%). It is evident from the floristic composition and biomass data that unique micro-environment of the discharge canal support different communities from those on the intake or control area. Results from the large numbers of surveys before and during plant operation showed that, in the regions influenced by thermal effluents such as the discharge canal of power plants, the process of ecological succession has been proceeded. It is assumed that the uni-directional water flow and the time of overhaul largely affect the development and succession of benthic marine algal communities of the discharge canal.

섬진강 하구역을 중심으로 광양만과 여수해만에서의 동시 관측한 염분의 현장관측자료의 분석과 기상, 조석, 하천유출수 및 온배수를 고려한 3차원 수치모델(EFDC) 결과를 이용하여 섬진강 하구역의 3차원 혼합특성을 파악하였다. 수치모델에 고려된 입력조건은 수심, 기상, 하천유출수 및 온배수 등이며, 개방경계에서는 염분 및 조석을 고려하여 수치모의하였다. 수치모델 검증은 조위 2개 정점과 조류 2개 정점의 조화분석을 통한조화상수 비교를 통하며 모델결과가 관측결과와 잘 일치하고 있음을 확인하였고, 조시별 유동장을 잘 재현하고 있음을 확인하였다. 동계 및 하계시 월평균 하천유출수를 고려하여 수치모의한 결과, 동계에는 32.0 psu의 등염분선이 섬진강 하구에 국한되어지나, 하계에는 30.0psu의 등염분선이 하천유출량의 영향으로 섬진강 하구역으로 확장되어짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 한편, 섬진강 하구역의 3차원 혼합특성은 전반적으로 섬진강 유출량의 변동, 해수유동구조 및 온배수 등에 의해 복잡한 형태를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
