The purpose of this study is to develop an optimal, long-term planning model for improvement of water distribution networks. The water distribution system is divided into sub-zones and the decision of improvement plan is made for each sub-zone. Costs for replacement, rehabilitation and repair, benefits including reduced pumping and leakage costs, and hydraulic reliability are considered to make optimal decision for improvement planning of water network. Harmony search algorithm is applied to optimize the system and hydraulic analysis model EPANET is interfaced with the optimal decision model to check the hydraulic reliability, The developed model is applied to actual water distribution system in Daegu-city, South Korea. The new model which use durability, conveyance and cost as a decision variable is different from existing methods which use only burying period and pipe type and can be used as optimal decision making system for water distribution network.

서낙동강은 당초 낙동강 본류였으나 1934년 김해평야 일원의 농업용수 공급을 위하여 건설된 대저수문과 녹산수문의 완공 이후 현재의 상태로 유지되고 있다. 서낙동강은 대저수문을 통한 유입과 녹산수문, 녹산배수펌프장을 통한 방류가 시행되고 있으며, 이러한 운영은 외해 조위조건에 따라 간헐적으로 운영되고 있어서, 수체의 정체로 인한 오염도가 높은 실정이다. 또한, 서낙동강 유역은 에코델타시티 등 다양한 개발계획이 수립됨에 따라 수질관리를 위한 여건도 변화할 것으로 예상되며, 이러한 개발에 따른 다양한 수질개선에 대한 사회적 요구가 증대됨에 따라 이를 위한 물순환 개선과 유역에서의 오염부하 저감 등 다양한 수질개선 대책이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 그간 서낙동강을 대상으로 시행되었던 연구결과와 현재 시행중인 물순환에 대한 효과를 검토하고, 이를 정량화하기 위한 2차원 수리 수질모형(CE-QUAL-W2)을 구축 활용하여 현행 물순환 방안의 운영 효과를 분석하고자 하였다. 당초 환경영향평가시 제시되었던 대저수문과 맥도수문을 통한 유입과 맥도배수펌프장을 통한 유출로 서낙동강, 평강천, 맥도강의 수질을 개선하고자 했던 물순환 계획은 여러 가지 여건으로 인해 시행되지 못하고 있으며, 현재는 매주 강서구청에서 맥도배수펌프장을 이용하여 평강천과 맥도강의 수위를 저하시킨 이후 서낙동강의 하천수를 유입시키는 형태로 물순환을 시행하고 있다. 이러한 현행 물순환 방안에 대한 분석을 위하여 서낙동강, 평강천, 맥도강 구간에 대하여 2차원 수리 수질모형(CE-QUAL-W2)을 이용하여 모의한 결과 현재의 물순환 방법으로는 물순환 유량이 증가하더라도 수질개선에 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 서낙동강에 낙동강 하천수가 대저수문을 통하여 유입된 이후 장기간 체류함에 따라 유역에서의 오염물질 유입의 영향이 크게 나타나며, 이에 따라 평강천과 맥도강에 유입되는 경우 수질개선이 제한적인 것으로 판단된다. 추가적으로 현재 서낙동강 대비 상대적으로 수질이 양호한 낙동강 본류의 하천수를 신규 수문 등의 시설물을 통하여 유입시키는 조건에 대한 분석 결과 현행 물순환 대비 효과가 크며 당초 예상했던 환경영향평가시 목표수질을 달성할 수 있을 것으로 판단보다 상세한 분석과 검토가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to analyze problems related to non-water-soluble sanitary products during the treatment of water regeneration centers in E.T.F. and S.T.F. at a time when the demand and supply of non-water-soluble sanitary products are increasing. As a result, the improvement plan of the W.R.C. should focus on pretreatment facilities. When replacing facilities in the future, various dust removers suitable for the facility's reality will be installed in the pretreatment of S.T.F., and it is proposed to link a bar-racks screen with a comprehensive treatment device or install a comprehensive treatment device for impurities alone in the pretreatment of E.T.F.. In addition, a microscreen screen must be installed on the front end of the excretory treatment unit. to separate non-water-soluble materials, and it is necessary to secure a maintenance space for the excretory treatment unit.

Water resources projection typically consists of several stages including emission scenarios, global circulation models (GCMs), downscaling techniques, and hydrological models, and each stage is a source of total uncertainty in water resources projection. Several studies proposed methods to quantify the relative contribution of each stage to total uncertainty, and we call such analysis uncertainty decomposition. Uncertainty decomposition enables us to investigate the stages yielding large uncertainties and to establish the uncertainty reduction plan that reflects them. Interactions between stages is one of the important issues to be considered in uncertainty decomposition. This study suggests a new uncertainty decomposition method considering interaction effect. The proposed method has an advantage of decomposing the total uncertainty to the uncertainty from each stage considering both the main and interactions effects. We apply the proposed method to streamflow projection for Chungju Dam basin. The results show that the uncertainties from the main effects are larger than the uncertainties from interaction effects in both summer and winter. Using the proposed uncertainty decomposition method, we show that the GCM stage is the largest source of the total uncertainty in summer and the downscaling technique stage is the one in winter among the following four stages: emission scenarios, GCMs, downscaling techniques, and hydrological models.

The Anyang River which located in an urban area near Seoul had been managed focusing on supplying home and industrial water and preventing floods, coping with rapid industrialization and urbanization. Consequently, it was changed into a deadly river during 25 years. Its channel was straightened by concrete and water quality deteriorated to BOD 190mg/l. In addition, water quantity has been rapidly decreased and has been drying up. Also, as the river ecosystem, landscape, water-friendly function, and so forth were seriously deteriorated, people turn away from the urban river. From 2001, the master plan under the 10-year has been actively carried out centering on the preceding items, which are healthy river in which fishes inhabit, safe river free from floods and droughts, and pleasant river where citizens visit. As a result, its water quality was remarkably improved by BOD 5mg/l in 2005 and some upper zones were improved enough to allow people to swim. Moreover, various animals including fish and birds gather around the river. Now, the 'Anyang River Restoration Project' is recognized as the first comprehensive and systematic nature-friendly urban river improvement in Korea.

Residual wall thicknesses, corrosion rates, and residual life of thirty four samples of cast iron pipes(CIPs) and ductile cast iron pipes(DCIPs) collected from water mains of B city were studied to estimate their remaining service life or optimum time of rehabilitation. The internal maximum corrosion depths of samples measured using a dial gauge after shot blasting were twice higher than the external in most cases. Therefore corrosion of water pipes was much more affected by internal water quality than soil. Residual wall thicknesses of DCIPs were higher than those of CIPs. That reason was thought to be that DCIPs have been protected from internal corrosion by lining cement mortar. Residual life calculated by maximum corrosion rate was ranged up to 44 years with 12.40 years average. Since most CIPs were much deteriorated, rehabilitation plan should be established soon in B city. Residual life of DCIP was 33.52 years average. When cement mortar lining is used up by neutralization of DCIPs. DCIP also should be rehabilitated.

In recent years, interest in river environment such as riparian landscape, water quality and ecological conservation has been growing with increasing recreation on agricultural river watershed. That caused the increase of necessity of water resources development, one of solutions for the diversification of agricultural water demand and shortages. In this respects, heightening irrigation dam, as a part of the 4-major river restoration project, is necessary to secure not only additional agricultural water but also instream flow for water quality improvement. However, operation plan of irrigation dam still not be clear. In this study, additional storage which secured through heightening irrigation dam was estimated using SWAT model. And instream flow effects on water quality of downstream were evaluated. The findings show that the additional water supply will contribute positively to water quantity and quality of downstream. The results show a 2~10% water quality improvement effect on nutrients, as well as an 1~8% water quantity increasing effect. In particular, additional storage can be effectively supplied from February to April by the reservoir operation. However, maintaining better water quality in irrigation reservoirs is important because the water quality of irrigation reservoirs can be negatively impacts the water quality in downstream of reservoirs.

This study performed prediction of extreme rainfall uncertainty and its frequency analysis based on climate change scenarios by Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) for the selected nine-General Circulation Models (GCMs) in the near future (2011-2040) over the Korean Peninsula (KP). We analysed uncertainty of scenarios by multiple model ensemble (MME) technique using non-parametric quantile mapping method and bias correction method in the basin scale of the KP. During the near future, the extreme rainfall shows a significant gradually increasing tendency with the annual variability and uncertainty of extreme ainfall in the RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 scenarios. In addition to the probability rainfall frequency (such as 50 and 100-year return periods) has increased by 4.2% to 10.9% during the near future in 2040. Therefore, in the longer-term water resources master plan, based on the various climate change scenarios (such as CMIP5 GCMs) and its uncertainty can be considered for utilizing of the support tool for decision-makers in water-related disasters management.

유역의 수량, 수질, 수생태, 지하수, 하천환경, 기후변화, 오염원, 하천 친수공간, 농업경작지 등 수자원 관점의 물순환의 범위를 넘어서 환경, 기후변화 적응, 경제성, 사회문화 등 다양한 분야를 포함한 통합적인 유역의 물관리 이슈와 문제점을 해결할 필요가 있다. 물순환 관리의 개념은 국토개발과 도시화에 따라 파생된 물순환 왜곡 및 그에 따른 제반 물문제(홍수량 증가에 따른 침수피해, 직접 유출량 증가에 따른 가용 수자원의 감소 등)의 해결을 위한 물관리 행위 전체로 볼 수 있다. 물순환 관리의 범위는 홍수량 감소를 위한 홍수관리, 가용 수자원의 증대를 위한 물 확보 등 물관리 전반을 포함해야 한다. 기존의 물순환 사업은 비점오염 관리에 중점을 두고 LID를 활용한 빗물 침투율 증대와 빗물 재이용 등의 관련 정책을 추진하였으나 이는 물순환 체계 전반을 다루고 있지 못하고 수질 개선에그 효과가 집중되었다. 따라서, 수량·수질·수생태·재이용 등을 종합적으로 고려한 물순환 관리에 대한 연구가 필요하며, 이를 통하여 개별적이고 시설물 중심인 기존 대책의 한계를 극복하고 통합물관리 관점의 물순환 건전성을 기반으로 유역의 안심공간 조성방안을 수립할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 물순환 전반을 연계한 통합적인 물관리를 통하여 물 안심공간을 조성하기 위한 토대를 제시하는 것을 목표로 하며, 통합물관리 관점의 물순환 관련 데이터 수집, 유역별 물순환 수준의 진단 및 평가를 통하여 시범사업 모델을 마련하고, 사업에 따른 효과분석을 기반으로 중장기 추진계획 수립을 통한 실행력을 확보하는 것을 목적으로 한다.
