Domestic sewage can greatly affect the macro-micro physical-mechanical properties of building foundation soils. In order to investigate the effect of domestic sewage on physical and mechanical properties of soils, the physicochemical properties of three groups of different concentrations of domestic sewage contaminated soil were tested through indoor experiments. Combined with scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction experiments, and grey relational analysis, the degree of influence of different concentrations of domestic sewage on the physicochemical properties of soil was compared and analyzed from multiple perspectives such as microstructure and mineral composition, revealing the influencing mechanism of soil pollution by domestic sewage. The results showed that under the immersion of contaminated water, the color of the soaking water turned black first and then yellow, and brownish yellow secretions appeared on the surface of the soil samples. The moisture content, specific gravity, density, and pore ratio index of the soil samples immersed in 50% and 100% domestic sewage decreased with the increase of sewage concentration, while the liquid limit of the soil samples changed in the opposite direction. The immersion time had little effect on the slope of the compression curve of the soil samples soaked in tap water. For the soil samples immersed in domestic sewage, the slope of the compression curve and the compression coefficient increased with the increase of domestic sewage concentration and immersion time, while the compression modulus showed the opposite trend. In the soil samples immersed in tap water, there were a large number of small particles and cementitious substances, and the structure was relatively dense. With the increase of domestic sewage concentration, the microstructure of the soil changed significantly, with the appearance of sigle particle structure, loose and disorderly arrangement of particles, increased and enlarged pores, gradual reduction of small particle substances and cementitious substances, and the soil structure transformed from compact to loose. The research findings can provide theoretical reference for contaminated geotechnical engineering.

Heavy metals are extracted from stream sediments, roadside soils and sediments and soils and tailings from mining area using partial extraction, acid digestion and HF-digestion. Compared to amounts of heavy metals extracted using partial extraction, those extracted using acid digestion are higher by 2.0∼220.9 times in Cu, 2.4∼2806.1 times in Pb, 1.3∼121 times in Cd, 14.1∼1300885 times in Fe, 1.2∼271.5 times in Mn, 1.3∼372.5 times in Zn, 2.2∼1734.5 times in Cr. Although partial extraction, which extracts less amounts of heavy metals from soil compared to acid digestion, is used in domestic standard method for examination of soil, domestic soil standard for heavy metals in non-agricultural and industrial areas is higher than soil standard in foreign countries which use acid digestion, For improvement of the domestic standard method for assessment of soil, it is suggested to lower the domestic soil standard for heavy metals or to change pretreatment method for extracting heavy metals from partial extraction to acid digestion with modifying the soil standard.

The application of domestic wastewater on rice paddies results in the accumulation of sodium(Na$^+$) to the soil. Excessive concentration of sodium may cause the deterioration of the physical characteristics of the soil, change in the osmosis of the soil, destruction of soil aggregates as well as ion toxicity due to sodium accumulation. Using domestic wastewater as irrigation water should be preceded by measures to prevent or control the soil salinization caused by sodium. Agricultural reuse of domestic wastewater were found not to cause serious problems with food safety due to heavy metals. However, pre-treatment using ultraviolet or ozone is recommended to reduce the number of bacteria and gem and for public health reasons. Using domestic wastewater has shown that reducing the standard application of chemical fertilizers by as much as 50% reduced the harvesting index by only 10%. This study has shown that it is feasible to reuse domestic wastewater on rice paddies. In order to facilitate the application, it is deemed necessary to establish wastewater treatment technologies in the future, to review criteria for recycling domestic wastewater for agricultural purposes such as conditions of soil and cropping system and to resolve conflicts with farmers and public health issues.

합리적이며 효율적인 토양환경관리를 위해 대상 지역 혹은 국가의 상황과 조건에 적합한 토양생태위해성평가 기법을 개발하여 적극적으로 활용해야 한다. 우리나라의 경우도 수용체 중심의 환경정책이 본격화됨에 따라, 국내 실정에 맞는 토양생태위해성평가 기법의 개발이 요구되는 실정이다. 한편, 토양생태위해성평가는 다양한 영양단계 내 서식종의 독성자료를 필요로 하며, 독성자료 성격에 따라 예측무영향농도(Predicted No Effect Concentration, PNEC)를 산출하여 이용한다. 그러므로 독성자료 산출에 이용되는 시험종은 합리적이고 신뢰성 높은 위해성평가와 밀접한 연관성을 가진다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 합리적이며 신뢰성 높은 국내형 토양생태위해성평가를 위해 필요한 국내 서식종을 선별하는 것이다. 구리와 니켈을 대상물질로 설정하였으며, 해당 오염물질의 독성자료를 수집하고, 국제 표준기관(ASTM, OECD, USEPA)에서 제시하는 표준 시험종을 조사하였다. 대상 시험종들은 영양단계별로 구분한 후 학술연구와 정부보고서, 생물도감 등을 통해 국내 서식종을 선별하였다. 본 연구결과. 표준시험종과 대상 물질 독성시험종은 각각 166, 120종으로 확인되었으며, 이 중 국내 서식종은 40, 17종인 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 국내 특성을 반영한 국내 서식종 선별자료를 아울러 제시하여 국내형 토양생태위해성평가 기법 수립의 기반을 조성하고자 하였다.

최근까지 사면, 제방, 댐 등의 안정해석에는 흙의 포화도를 고려하지 않고 포화상태의 시료에서 얻어진 강도정수를 사용하여 왔다. 이는 포화지반의 개념으로 구조물을 설계하는 것이 이론적 접근이 용이하고 안전측 설계가 가능하기 때문이었으며, 불포화토를 연구하기 위해 소요되는 실험적 비용과 시간 등의 어려움이 많았기 때문이다. 하지만 고전적인 포화토질역학의 개념과 원리로는 실제의 불포화 지반에서 발생하는 현상과 거동이 합리적으로 해석되지 않는 많은 공학적 문제들이 인식되면서 최근 들어 지반의 공학 연구 분야에 불포화토에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 최근 들어 많은 연구자들은 흙 구조물을 보다 합리적으로 해석하기 위하여 구조체의 포화도를 고려하는 해석의 필요성을 제기하고 있다. 불포화토의 역학적 성질을 규명하기 위한 가장 기본적인 요소중의 하나가 바로 '함수특성곡선(SWCC)'이다. 흙은 불포화상태로 갈수록, 즉 함수비가 감소할수록, 흙 내부에 음의 간극수압이 작용되는데 이 음의 간극수압인 모관흡수력(suction)과 체적 함수비(volumetric water content)간의 상관관계를 나타내는 곡선이 함수특성곡선이다. 본 연구에서는 실무에 편리하게 쓰일 수 있도록 국내 화강풍화토에 대한 지역별 자료를 제시하며, 이에 대한 검증을 위하여 이론적 고찰과 검증, 실험적 검증을 하였다. 함수특성곡선의 추정에는 Soil Vision Ltd.의 Soil Vision이 사용되었으며, 추정된 함수특성곡선과 실험적인 방법과 이론적인 방법로 얻어진 함수특성곡선을 비교, 검증하였다.

하천, 고속도로 주변, 광산지역으로부터 채취된 시료를 대상으로 용출법과 산분해법, 완전용해법의 세가지 전처리 방법을 적용하여 중금속을 추출하고 그 결과를 비교하였다. 전처리방법으로 용출법 사용시 중금속 추출량에 비해 산분해법 사용시의 중금속 추출량이 Cu는 2.0∼221배, Pb는 2.4∼2806배, Cd는 1.3∼121배, Fe는 14.1∼1300885배, Mn은 1.2∼272배, Zn은 1.3∼373배, Cr은 2.2∼1735배 높게 나타났다. 용출법에 의한 중금속 추출량과 산분해법에 의한 중금속 추출량간에 특별한 상관관계가 없다. 이에 반해 산분해법 사용시 중금속 추출량과 완전용해법 사용시 중금속 추출량간에는 다소 상관관계가 있을 가능성이 있다. 국내와 국외의 비농경지 및 공장·산업지역 토양오염 기준치를 비교하여 볼 때 중금속(Cd, Cu, Pb)이 상대적으로 적게 추출되는 용출법을 사용하는 국내의 기준치가 중금속이 상대적으로 많이 추출되는 산분해법을 사용하는 외국의 기준치 보다 낮아야 함에도 불구하고 국내의 기준치가 외국보다 대부분 높게 책정되어있다. 개선책으로 용출법을 계속 적용하되 기준치를 낮추거나 아니면 전처리방법을 산분해법으로 바꾸고 기준치를 재조정하는 것이 필요하다.

The coefficient of permeability is one of the most important properties in unsaturated soils. The permeability varies with change in the water content as the soil water characteristic curve(SWCC) does. Thus the permeability curve of unsaturated soils has the similar shape with the soil-water characteristic curve(SWCC). Therefore, the methodologies have been studied to simply predict the unsaturated permeability from the SWCC. In this study, the experimental tests of SWCC and permeability were carried out for domestic weathered granite soils. The SWCC test results were fitted to Fredlund and Xing's SWCC equation and then it was found that there are some relationships between the parameters of SWCC equation and the basic soil properties. Accordingly we used an ANN(artificial neural network) model to obtain the SWCC parameters from the basic soil properties. Finally, the coefficients of permeability were predicted from these results by a prediction model.

Water quality in the public water course has been polluted more seriously than ever before due to the increase of the number and aremount of pollution sources such as domestic and industrial wastewater. For water quality conservation, the Korean government has been trying to construct sewage treatment facilities continually, of which treatment capacity reached to 11,452,400m$^{3}$/day in 1996. Night soil treatment facilites of m nationwide have the treatment capacity of 24,038m$^{3}$/day. But water quality has not been improved because the sewer systems were insufficient and the treatment efficiencies of sewage were not high, enough. For renovation of water quality, miscellaneous domestic wastewater must be treated because 27g BOD/day out of total 40g BOD/person-day come from miscellaneous wastewater, comparing to 13g BOD/day from night soil. However, sole treatment purifier treat only night soil from the flushing toilet. Therefore, it may be desirable to treat the miscellaneous domestic wastewater and the night soil from flushing toilet together by joint treatment purifier system as on-site domestic wastewater treatment technology. In Korea, the joint treatment purifier system, introduced in 1997, have the benefit as follows; i) good water poiluion control effect, ii ) good effect on river water flow, iii) water pollution control with sewage treatment facility, and iv) rapid pollution control effect, etc. In order to achieve a good effect as stated before, i ) strengthening effluent guideline including BOD, nitrogen and phosphorus, ii ) specializing operation to maintain high performance, and iii) supporting its construction and maintenance costs by the governmental level may be necessary: In addition, automation system of joint treatment purifier, technology for its package and compactness, and a new bio-media bio-filter with higher capacity should be further developed in agreement with a more stringent effluent guideline.

Phthalates and di-2-ethylhexyladipate are both widely used as industrial chemicals and exposure high levels over long periods of time can cause toxicity, estrogenic responses and endocrine disruption properties in both humans and animals. So far, their global monitoring in environmental matrices has been performed continuously. A developed method, including modified SPEED'98 (Japan Environment Agency) and USEPA was established for simple and rapid determination of phthalates and di-2-ethylhexyladipate in various matrices. This method was applied to explore the distribution levels in domestic environmental media such as water, soil and sediment. Eight phthalates (DEP(di-ethyl), DEHP(di-[2-ethyl-hexyl]), DprP (di-propyl), DBP(di-n-butyl), DPP(di-n-pentyl), DHP(di-n-hexyl), DCHP(di-cyclohexyl), BBP(butyl benzyl) and Adipate (di-2-ethylhexyl adipate) were investigated by seasonal sampling(spring, autumn) at 24 domestic sites. Phthalates and adipate were not detected in water samples and DEP, DBP, and DEHP were mainly detected in soil and sediment samples. The concentrations of DEP and DBP excluding DEHP in spring were higher in soil than those of sediment. Total concentrations of phthalates were significantly decreased in autumn for both soil and sediment.
