벼 재배에 있어 이앙기 가뭄시 대체 용수원을 개발하고자 공장폐수처리장(이하 공장폐수 처리수)와 하수종말처리장 방류수(이하 하수처리수)를 관개한 다음 지하 침투수 수질 및 벼생육 변화를 구명하기 위해 본 시험을 수행하였다. 대체 관개 용수원으로서 공장폐수 처리수의 COD, $NH_4{^+}-N$, $Mn^{2+}$, 및 $Ni^+$ 농도와 하수처리수중의 SS및 $PO_4-P$농도는 여러 국가들의 관개 재활용 수질 기준보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. 하수처리수의 초장은 공장폐수 처리수 10일간 관개구를 제외하고 지하수 관개구 보다 약 2 cm 정도 짧았으나, 지하수 및 하수처리수 관개구의 경수는 관개기간에 관개 없이 유의차가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 하수처리수 및 공장폐수 처리수 20일 관개구의 수확지수는 유의차가 없었지만, 공장폐수 처리수 30일 관개구의 수확지수는 토성에 관계없이 하수처리수 관개구 보다 약간 높은 것으로 나타났다. 공장폐수 처리수 관개구의 토양 침출수중의 SAR값은 하수처리수 관개구보다 2배 이상 높았지만, 하수처리수 관개구는 지하수 관개구와 비교하여 유의차가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이앙 30일 후 공장폐수 및 하수종말처리수 관개구의 토양침출수중 평균 전기전도도(EC1) 값은 각각 식양토에서 4.7과 $3.4dS\;m^{-1}$ 그리고 사양토에서 3.5 및 $2.5dS\;m^{-1}$로 나타났다. 전생육 기간 및 토성에 따른 공장폐수 처리수 관개구의 토양 침출수중 $EC_i$값이 하수처리수 관개구 보다 2배 이상 높게 나타났지만, 이앙 30일 후부터 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 그렇지만 하수종말 처리수 관개구의 토양 침출수 중 $EC_i$ 값은 지하수 관개구와 비교하여 유의차가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 보아 벼 재배시 하수종말 처리수는 가뭄으로 인한 농업용수가 부족한 경우 대체수자원으로서 잠정적 활용이 가능한 것으로 생각된다.

A field investigation was conducted on an aquifer contaminated with trichloroethylene (TCE) for application of in situ reactive zone treatment using nanosized zero-valent iron (NZVI). The aquifer was an unconfined aquifer with a mean hydraulic conductivity of $5.14{\times}10^{-4}cm/sec$, which would be favorable for NZVI injection. Seasonal monitoring of TCE concentration revealed a presence of non-aqueous phase liquid form of TCE near IW (injection well). The hydrochemical data characterized the site groundwater to be a $Ca-HCO_3$ type. The average value of Langelier Saturation Index of the groundwater was -1.33, which implied that the site was favorable for corrosion of NZVI. Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration varied between 2.5~11.5 mg/L, which indicated that DO would greatly compete with TCE as an electron acceptor. The hydrogeological and hydrochemical characterization reveals that the time around November would be appropriate for NZVI injection when water level and temperature are relatively high and DO concentration is low.

For environmental remediation of a contaminated groundwater plume, the use of zero-valent metal represents one of the latest innovative technologies. In this study, the effects of denitrification by zero-valent iron adsorbed in mesoporous silicas have been studied for groundwater contaminant degradation. The mesoporous silica was functionalized with 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS) ligands and the zero-valent iron precipitated in the mesopore of granular silica was made by $FeCl_2$ and $NaBH_4$. Hydrogen was exchanged with $Fe^{2+}$ ions in the granular silicas. And then the ions were reduced by sodium borohydride in the mesoporous silicas. The surface area of the silica determined via the BET method ranged from 858 to $1275m^2/g$. The reductive reaction of nitrate-nitrogen indicated that the degradation of nitrate-nitrogen appeared to be pseudo first-order with the observed reaction rate constant kobs ($0.1619h^{-1}$) and to be directly proportional to the specific surface area. Therefore, the mesoporous silica with nano zero-valent iron proposed as a novel treatment strategy for contaminated groundwater was successfully implemented herein for the removal of nitrate-nitrogen.

지하수 내의 철분 제거를 위해 일반적으로 포기법과 화학적 산화제를 이용한 산화법이 이용된다. 특히 오염수 포기에 이은 고-액 여과 분리 공정은 가장 널리 이용되는 물리 화학적 처리법이다. 이 방법은 주로 pH 6.5 이상의 경우 산화 제1철의 불용화에 매우 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 석회석을 일정한 포기 하에 오염수와 접촉시켜 pH를 6.5 이상으로 유지하였다. 회분식 실험에서 석회석 입도 크기, 초기 철분 농도, pH, 온도 및 이온 세기 등에 의한 산화 제1철의 산화속도 변화를 고찰하였다. 석회석의 입도가 감소할수록 pH의 증가가 두드러지며 철분 산화 또한 급격히 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 산화 제1철의 산화속도는 초기 철분 농도, 온도 및 이온세기에 비례하는 것으로 나타났다.

The contamination of chlorinated ethenes at an industrial complex, Wonju, Korea, was examined based on sixteen rounds of groundwater quality data collected from 2009 to 2013. Remediation technologies such as soil vapor extraction, soil flushing, biostimulation, and pumping-and-treatment have been applied to eliminate the contaminant sources of trichloroethylene (TCE) and to prevent the migration of TCE plume from remediation target zones. At each remediation target zone, temporal monitoring data before and after the application of remediation techniques showed that the aqueous concentrations of TCE plume present at and around the main source areas decreased significantly as a result of remediation technologies. However, the TCE concentration of the plumes at the downstream area remained unchanged in response to the remediation action, but it showed a great fluctuation according to seasonal recharge variation during the monitoring period. Therefore, variations in the contaminant flux across three transects were analyzed. Prior to the remediation action, the concentration and mass discharges of TCE at the transects were affected by seasonal recharge variation and residual DNAPLs sources. After the remediation, the effect of remediation took place clearly at the transects. By tracing a time-series of plume evolution, a greater variation in the TCE concentrations was detected at the plumes near the source zones compared to the relatively stable plumes in the downstream. The difference in the temporal profiles of TCE concentrations between the plumes in the source zone and those in the downstream could have resulted from remedial actions taken at the source zones. This study demonstrates that long term monitoring data are useful in assessing the effectiveness of remediation practices.

This study was conducted to analyze growth responses of fast growing tree species(8 clones of hybrid poplars, Salix alba, Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Liriodendron tulipifera, Acer okamotoanum, and Quercus palustris), the chemical characteristics of soil and $NO_3-N$ concentration of groundwater in a plantation applied with liquid pig manure. Concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorous in the soil treated with liquid pig manure were higher than that of the soil treated without liquid pig manure. With the exception of S. alba, DBH(Diameter at Breast Height) growth of all the fast growing tree species treated with liquid pig manure was higher than that of the species treated without liquid pig manure. In liquid pig manure treatment group, P. euramericana 'Eco28' clone showed the best performance in height and DBH growth. Concentration of nitrogen in the leaf with liquid pig manure was higher than that of the leaf treated without liquid pig manure. Based on the $NO_3-N$ concentration of groundwater analyzed during the experimental period, there was no evidence that groundwater was polluted by the liquid pig manure applied at the plantation.

이 연구에서는 강원도 도계지역의 오십천과 주변의 지류를 대상으로 하천수의 수리지화학적 특성을 규명하여 지표 수질에 대한 지하수의 영향을 정량적으로 밝히고, 이를 근거로 체계적인 수자원 관리를 위한 기본정보를 제공하고자 하였다. 오십천 하천수의 수질모니터링 결과, 산화환원전위, 용존 이온성분의 분포와 성분간의 상관성, 산소-수소 동위원소비, 오염물질의 분포와 발생 등은 오십천의 가장 중요한 공급원이 지하수임을 지시한다. 하천수의 수질유형은 기반암의 지질학적 특성에 따른 지하수의 물-암석 반응에 의해 결정되며, 조선누층군의 탄산염 기반암에 기원하는 $Ca-HCO_3$ 유형, 평안누층군 내 탄층에 수반되는 황화광물의 용해와 연관된 (Ca, Mg)-$SO_4$ 유형, 그리고 이 두 유형이 복합적으로 나타나는 (Ca, Mg)-($HCO_3$, $SO_4$) 유형 등의 3가지 유형이 나타난다. 수질 오염현상은 광산배수와 유사한 높은 $SO_4$ 함량과, 지표 토지이용에 따른 질산염의 국지적 발생이 확인된다. 여름철 집중강수는 하천수질의 전반적인 유형에는 영향을 미치지 않으나, 지표기원의 오염물질인 질산염과 염소 등의 유입이 증가되는 현상을 초래한다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 증가된 하천유출량으로 인해 용존이온의 농도 희석효과가 발생한다. 본 연구결과는 지표수 수질관리의 시발점이 주 공급원이 되는 지하수질의 특성화로부터 시작되어야 함을 지시한다.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) proposes 11 industries that handle Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) that are considered to need management. A water treatment facility is one of the above industries that takes in groundwater and produces drinking water through a water treatment process. Groundwater can accumulate natural radionuclides such as uranium and thorium in raw water by contacting rocks or soil containing natural radionuclides. Therefore, there is a possibility that workers in water treatment facilities will be exposed due to the accumulation of natural radionuclides in the water treatment process. The goal of this study is to evaluate the external radiation dose according to the working type of workers in water treatment facilities. In order to achieve the above goal, the study was conducted by dividing it into 1) analysis of the exposure environment, 2) measurement of the external radiation dose rate 3) evaluation of the external radiation dose. In the stage of analyzing the exposure environment, major processes that are expected to occur significantly were derived. In the measurement stage of the external radiation dose rate, a map of the external radiation dose rate was prepared by measuring the spatial radiation dose rate in major processes. Through this, detailed measurement points were selected considering the movement of workers. In the external radiation dose evaluation stage, the external radiation dose was evaluated based on the previously derived external radiation dose rate and working time. As a result of measuring the external radiation dose rate at the detailed points of water treatment facilities A to C, it was 1.90×10^-1 to 3.75×10⁰ μSv h^-1, and the external radiation dose was analyzed as 3.27×10^-3 to 9.85×10^-2 mSv y^-1. The maximum external radiation dose appeared during the disinfection and cleaning of activated carbon at facility B, and it is judged that natural radionuclides were concentrated in activated carbon. It was found that the external radiation dose of workers in the water treatment facility was less than 1mSv y^-1, which is about 10% of the dose limit for the public. As a result of this study, it was found that the radiological effect of external radiation dose of domestic water treatment facility workers was insignificant. The results are expected to contribute as background data to present optimized safety management measures for domestic NORM industries in the future.

The objective of the research is to develop agricultural resue technologies of reclaiming the effluents from a municipal wastewater treatment plant and reusing for irrigated rice paddies. The Suwon wastewater treatment plant was selected for wastewater reuse tests. The control was the plots with groundwater irrigation (TR＃1), the treatment (TR＃2) using polluted stream water as it was, and three others using wastewater after treatment. Three levels of wastewater treatments were employed： the effluent from the wastewater treatment plant (TR＃3), sand filtering after treatment plant(TR＃4), and ultra-violet treatment after sand filtering (TR＃5). The randomized block method was applied to wastewater application to paddy rice with five treatments and six replica. The effects of various wastewater treatment levels on water quality, paddy soil, crop growth, yields, and the health hazards were investigated. The primary results indicate that cultivating rice with reclaimed wastewater irrigation did not cause a problem to adverse effects on crop growth and yields. Overall, wastewater could be used as a practical alternative measure for reclaimed wastewater irrigation. However, long-term monitoring is recommended on the effects on soil chemical characteristics and its related health concerns.
