  • This study aimed at characterizing unsaturated zone at the source zone area contaminated by DNAPL and investigating feasibility of soil vapor extraction (SVE). Five boreholes with three multi-level screens at the depth of 3.0~4.5 m, 5.5~7.0 m, and 8.0~12.0 m were installed at the source zone. Pneumatic tests were performed to determine the permeability of porous medium. Permeability was estimated to be 81.6 to 203.7 darcy, depending on the applied solutions, which was contradicted by grain size analysis of cored soil samples leading to 3.51 darcy. This is due to air flow through gravel pack during the early stage of pneumatic test. Pressure-drawdown curve in the late stage also well showed the leaky aquifer type, indicating air leakage to the ground. Air flow tests were also carried out to investigate air flow connectivity between multi-level wells, indicating that the horizontal air flow was well developed between the lower screens of the wells, not between the upper and middle screens due to the leakage to the surface. For the SVE test, there was no noticeable variation in TCE vapor concentration between three different test runs: 1. 8 hours daily for 5 days, 2. 24 hours together with air blowing at another well (BH1), 3. five consecutive days. Even for five-day consecutive test, total amount of removed TCE was estimated only to be as low as 46.5 g.

  • Infiltration and water flow in the upper soil layer of a deep water table aquifer are modeled for multistorm runoff events. The infiltration process is developed using the sharp wetting front model of Green and Ampt, and the following redistribution process is modeled using the gravity drained rectangular approximation. The Brooks-Corey model [Brooks and Corey, 1966] is adopted to relate the effective soil saturation, the tension head, and the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity Firstly, the infiltration and redistribution model is developed for a single stom runoff event. Then a couple of events combined for multistorm runoff events. In the later case, infiltration rate of the second rainfall is strongly influenced by the length of the rainfall hiatus and soil moisture profile.

  • 공기분사공정법은 포화대수층에 존재하는 유기화합오염물질들을 대기로부터 주입된 공기에 의해 불포화층으로 휘발시켜 제거하는 기술을 말한다. 이 연구의 목적은 TPH 10,000 mg/kg(액상 TPH 1,001 mg/L)으로 오염시킨 사질 포화대수층에 공기를 주입 하였을 때 불포화 토양층, 대기층에서 발생되는 이산화탄소, 휘발성유기화합물의 농도와 포화대수층(TPH) 농도 변화에 관한 특성 연구이다. 36일 동안 공기를 주입한 결과, 실험 반응조의 평형온도는 $24.9{\pm}1.5^{\circ}C$이었다. 포화대수층(공기 확산기 근처 C10 지점)에 녹아있는 TPH 농도는 초기주입 농도의 66.0%가 제거되었다. 대기중(C70 지점)에서 측정된 $CO_2$ 질량은 3,800 mg이였고 불포화 토양층(C50 지점)에서 측정된 $CO_2$의 질량은 3,200 mg이였다. 대기중(C70 지점) 및 불포화 토양층(C50 지점)에서 생성된 VOCs 속도상수는 각각 0.164/day, 0.187/day이였다.

  • 여러 개의 층으로 구성된 토양층에서 연속주입 추적자시험을 수행하여, 불포화대와 포화대 구간에서의 수리분산특성 차이를 추적자의 농도이력곡선, 시간에 따른 농도변화 및 농도변화율, 그리고 거리에 따른 농도비 분석을 통해 비교 연구하였다. 연속주입 추적자시험에 의하면, 약 160시간이 경과된 후에 불포화대와 포화대에서 Rhodamine WT 최대농도의 차이는 약 $13{\sim}15$배 정도에 달하였고, 시험시간 대 추적자 농도증가율의 차이는 약 10배 정도로 나타났다. 또한 시간에 따른 추적자 농도이력곡선의 변화와 농도변화율이 불포화대에 비하여 포화대에서 크게 나타났다. 주입공에서의 이격거리에 따른 추적자의 농도비는 포화대 구간에서 더 빠르게 선형적으로 감소하였으며, 그 이후에 농도비가 2배 이하로 완만해 지는데 걸린 시간은 포화대 구간이 더 길었다. 이러한 차이들은 여러 개의 층서로 구성된 토양층의 포화대에서는 지하수가 존재하며, 또한 매질의 불균질성이 크고 투수성이 다양하기 때문에, 비교적 균질한 층서를 이루는 불포화대에 비하여 추적자 용액의 농도는 낮고, 추적자의 확산이 느리게 진행되어진데서 기인하였다. 그리고 포화대 구간에서의 유효공극율은 $10.19{\sim}10.50%$, 종분산지수는 $0.80{\sim}l.98m$, 횡분산지수는 $0.02{\sim}0.04m$의 범위로 산정되었으며, 실내주상시험의 종분산지수와 비교할 때 12배 이상의 규모종속효과가 나타났다.

  • 본 연구는 충남 예산지역의 산림 토양에 대해 심도별 지중온도를 관측하고 기후 및 토양의 침투 특성에 따른 지중온도의 변화를 분석하였으며, 대기온도와 토양의 열물성치를 수치 해석적 모델에 적용하여 지중온도의 변화를 모사하였다. 심도별(20, 50, 100cm) 계측 자료를 분석한 결과 50cm 이내의 지중온도는 대기온도의 직접적인 영향을 받아 온도의 변동 폭이 크고 뚜렷하며, 100cm 심도에서는 완만하면서 작은 진동 폭을 갖는다. 연구 기간 동안의 지중온도 변화량은 지층의 수리전도도와 약한 정의 상관관계를 갖고 있어 물의 흐름이 대기온도의 전달을 용이하게 하는 것으로 파악된다. 수치모델에 의한 지중온도 예측 결과는 실측 자료와 약 0.99의 교차상관계수를 보이고 있어 매우 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 앞으로 불포화 토양의 수리전도도와 지하수 함양량을 추정하는데 수치모델을 이용한 대수층의 지중온도 예측 결과를 사용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • The most effective way to distinguish subsurface interfaces that produce various geophysical responses is through the integration of multiple geophysical methods, with each method detecting both a complementary and unique set of distinct physical properties relating to the subsurface. In this study, shallow seismic reflection (SSR) and ground penetrating radar (GPR) surveys were conducted at the Cheongju-Gadeok site of the Korea National Groundwater Monitoring Network to map the water table, which was measured at 12 m depth during the geophysical surveys. The water table proved to be a good target reflector in both datasets, as the abrupt transition from the overlying unsaturated weathered rock to the underlying saturated weathered rock yielded large acoustic impedance and dielectric constant contrasts. The two datasets were depth converted and integrated into a single section, with the SSR and GPR surveys conducted to ensure subsurface imaging at approximately the same wavelength. The GPR data provided detailed information on the upper ~15 m of the section, whereas the SSR data imaged structures at depths of 10-45 m. The integrated section thus captured the full depth coverage of the sandy clay, water table, weathered rock, soft rock, and hard rock structures, which correlated well with local drillcore and water table observations. Incorporation of these two geophysical datasets yielded a synthetic section that resembled a simplified aquifer model, with the best-fitting seismic velocity, dielectric constant, and porosity of the saturated weathered layer being $v_{seismic}=1000m/s$, ${\varepsilon}_r=16$, and ${\phi}=0.32$, respectively.

  • Gaseous partitioning tracer test has been used for determining the volume and spatial distribution of residual non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) in the unsaturated soils. In this study, an experimental method for measuring the content of gas-exposed NAPL as well as that of total NAPL in a sand during air sparging was developed. Two different gaseous phase NAPL-partitioning tracers were used; n-pentane, with very low water solubility, was used as the tracer that partitions into NAPL that is only in contact with the mobile gas, and chloroform, with fairly good water solubility, was selected for detecting total NAPL content in the sand. Helium and difluromethanewere used as the non- reactive tracer and water-partitioning tracers, respectively. Using n-decane as a model NAPL (NAPL saturation of 0.018), 25.6% of total NAPL was detected by n-pentane at the water saturation of 0.68. Oniy 9.1% of total NAPL was detected by n-pentane at the water saturation of 0.84. This result implies that the quantity of gas-exposed NAPL increased about three times when the water saturation decreased from 0.84 to 0.68. At the water saturation of 0.68, more than 90% of total NAPL was detected by chloroform while 65.8% of total NAPL was detected by chloroform at the water saturation of 0.84. Considering that the removal rate of NAPL during air sparging for NAPL-contaminated aquifer is expected to be greatly dependent upon the spatial arrangement of NAPL phase with respect to the mobile gas, this new approach may provide useful information for investigating the mass transfer process during air-driven remedial processes fer NAPL-contaminated subsurface environment.

  • Ground water hydrology may be defined as the science of the occnrrence, distribution, and movement of water below the surface of the earth. Geohydrology has an identical connotation, and hydrogeology differs only by its greater emphasis on geology. Ground water referred to with out further specification is commonly understood to mean water occupying all the voids with in a geologic stratum. This saturated zone is tobe distinguished from an unsaturated, or aeration zone where voids are filled \yith water and air. Water contained in saturate:! zones is important for engineering works, geologic studies, and water supply developements Conseqently, the occurrence of water in these zones will be emphasized here. Un-saturated zones are usualiy found above saturated zones and extending upward to the ground surface. Because this water includes soil moisture with in the root zone, it is a major concern of agricultlre, botmy and soil science. No rigid demarcation of waters, between the two zones is possible, for they possess an iriterdependent boundary and water can move from zone to zone in either science, including eology, hydrology, meteorology, and oceanography are concerned with earths water, but ground water hydrology may be regarded as a specialized science combining elements of geology, hydrology, and fluid mechanics. Geology governs the occurrence and distribution of ground water, hydrology determines the supply of water to the ground, and fluid mechanics explains its movement. To provide maximum development of grofnd water resources. for benefical use requires thinking in terms of an entire ground water basin. In order to inorease the natural supply of ground water, man has attempted to artifially recharge ground water basins. Coastal aquifers come in contact with the ocean at seawater of the coastline. Fresh ground water is discharged in to the ocean. the seaward flow of ground water has been decreased or even reversed, Sea water penettating in land in aquifer.
