Various humic substances are widely distributed in natural water body, such as rivers and lakes and cause the yellowish or brownish color to water. The evidence that humic substances are precursors of THMs formation in chlorinated drinking water has been reported m the Jiteratures. For the reason of public health as well as aesthetics, needs for humic substances removal have been increased in the conventional water treatment processes. In this research, the characteristics of aluminium coagulation of humic acids and humic acids were investigated. The optimum pH and coagulants dosage to remove these materials simultaneously by coagulation were alto studied. The results are as followed; 1. UV-254 absorptiometry for measuring the concentration of aquatic humic acids showed good applicability and stable results. 2. The optimal pH range for humic acids removal by aluminium coagulation was 5 to 5.5, however, an increase in aluminium coagulant dosage could enhance the removal rate of humic acids in the wide pH range. 3. Coprecipitation of humic acids in the typical pH range of 6.5 to 8 in water treatment processes may require the sweep coagulation mechanism with the excess aluminium coagulant dosage. 4. Using PAC(poly aluminium chloride) or PASS(poly aluminium silica sulfate) as coagulants was able to expand the operating range for removing humic acids. 5. From the coagulation of humic substances(UV-254) and turbidity at pH range of 5.5 - 6.0 and alum dose of 86 ppm, the removal efficiency of turbidity from the reservoir water was above 90% and that of UV-254 was above 70%. 6. By using the reservoir water, the optimum condition of rapid mixing for simultaneous removal of turbidity and UV-254 absorbance was pH of 5.8 and LAS dose of 86 ppm, in this study.

본 연구에서는 국내 원자력발전소가 위치한 지역의 토양(영광, 울진, 고리, 고성, 월성)에 존재하는 휴믹산(HA)을 추출하여 각 시료의 원소성분 및 분광학적 방법(UV/Vis, IR, CPMAS $^{13}C$ NMR)을 이용한 물질 특성을 조사하였고, Aldrich HA과 함께 비교 분석하였다. 분자량 크기 분포의 차이는 한외여과법을 이용하여 조사하였다. 원소분석 결과, 울진 지역의 HA에서 가장 높은 산소 함량비를 보였으며, 고리와 고성지역의 HA에서 상대적으로 낮은 산소 함량비를 보였다(O/C: 0.51(UJHA) vs. 0.43(KRHA), 0.46(KSHA)). 분자량 크기 분포는 울진과 영광 지역의 HA가 고리와 고성 지역의 HA에 비하여 30,000 daltons이상의 고분자가 더 높게 존재함을 알 수 있었다. CPMAS $^{13}C$ NMR, UV/Vis., IR 등의 분광학적 특성분석 결과, 울진과 영광 지역의 HA가 고리, 고성 및 월성 지역의 HA에 비하여 상대적으로 높은 방향족성(aromaticity)과 산소 포함 작용기의 함량이 높은 특성을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때, 울진과 영광지역의 HA가 상대적으로 더 높은 휴믹화(humification) 단계의 물질 특성을 가짐을 알 수 있었으며, 금속이온과의 반응성이 더 높을 것으로 예측된다.

In this study, humic and fulvic acids in soils at the vicinity of domestic atomic power plants(NPPs), located in Yungkwang(YK), Uljin(UJ), Kori(KR), Koseong(KS), Wolseong(WS) area, and in volcanic ash soils of the Cheju island(Mt. Hanla(HL), Manjanggul(MJ)) were isolated, and characterized using chemical(elemental analysis, proton exchange capacity, molecular size distribution) and spectroscopic(UV/Vis., IR, FL, $^{13}$ C NMR spectra) methods. The results were compared with one another and compiled for their DB establishments. The humic substances distribution (humic acid, fulvic acid, Humin) in the soils were also determined by IHSS standard method. Main purpose of this study was to provide a basic data needed to evaluate the effect of humic substances on the migrational behaviour of radioactive elements in contaminated surface soil.

A comparative study on cadmium(II) complexation with three well characterized humic acids (SHA: soil humic acid from the Okchun Metamorphic Belt; AqHA: aquatic humic acid from Gorleben underground aquifer, Germany; CoHA: commercially available humic acid from the Aldrich Co.) was carried out in 0.1 M $NaClO_4$ at different solution pH(5.0, 5.5, and 6.0) using the ultrafiltration technique. The maximum binding ability (MBA) of the humic acids for cadmium(II) was observed to vary with their origins and solution pH. The results suggest that 1 : 1 complex predominates within the experimental range, and the conditional stability constants were calculated based on the assumption of cooperative binding, yielding log K values that were quite similar (CoHA: 4.17${\pm}$0.08; AqHA: 4.14${\pm}$0.07; SHA: $4.06{\pm} 0.12\;l\;mol^{-1}$ at pH 6.0) irrespective of humic acid origins or pH. By contrast a nonlinear Schatchard plot was obtained, using the cadmium(II) ion selective electrode speciation analysis method, which indicated that humic acid may have two or more classes of binding sites, with $log\;K_1\;and\;log\;K_2$ of 4.73${\pm}$ 0.08 and $3.31{\pm}0.14\;l\;mol^{-1}$ respectively.

본 연구는 토양에 침적된 방사능 물질의 거동에 부식산이 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위한 기초연구로서 깊이별 토양에 존재하는 휴믹산과 풀빅산을 추출하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. 휴믹산과 풀빅산의 분자량 분포는 한외여과법을 이용하여 조사하였으며, 분광학적 특성으로는 자외선-가시광선, 적외선 및 형광분광 분석을 실시하였다. 휴믹산의 주요 분자량 분포 영역은 30~100 kDa (46~56%)이었으며, 풀빅산은 10~30 kDa (33~43%) 이었다. 토양 깊이가 증가할수록 휴믹산과 풀빅산 분자의 분자량은 전체적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 자외선-가시광선 분석 결과, 휴믹산이 풀빅산에 비하여 전체적으로 1.4~1.5배 더 높은 흡광계수 (280 nm)를 나타내었고, 휴믹산의 경우 토양 깊이가 증가할수록 흡광계수가 증가하였다. Synchronous 형광 분석 결과, 휴믹산과 풀빅산의 방향족 고리화합물은 428 nm 영역 (type 1)과 498 nm 영역 (type II)에서의 형광피크에 해당하는 두 가지 특성 구조를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 휴믹산 분자는 대부분 장파장 영역 (type II)에서의 방향족 고리구조 특성을 보였으며, 휴믹산과 풀빅산 모두 토양층의 깊이가 증가할수록 장파장 영역의 방향족 고리 특성이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 적외선 분석 결과, 풀빅산이 휴믹산에 비해 카르복실기 (${\sim}1720cm^{-1}$)의 피크세기가 높았으며, 토양 깊이가 증가할수록 휴믹산과 풀빅산분자의 카르복실기의 피크세기가 증가하는 특성을 보였다.

Germination tests were conducted to determine the practical concentration levels at which plants can reproduce naturally during the phytoremediation of soils contaminated with a high concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals. The effects of humic acids on plant growth and soil physicochemical properties were also investigated. The results show that phytoremediation can be applied in soils contaminated by multiple contaminants at the former soil contamination potential level of Korean soil quality standards considering successful natural reproduction. It was observed that germination rates of Helianthus annuus and Festuca arundinacea were high after all treatments, and transplantation was more appropriate for Phragmites communis in phytoremediation. Humic acids had a positive effect on the growth of both aboveground and belowground biomass of herbaceous plants. Growth inhibition by multiple contaminants is more severe in the case of aboveground biomass. Germination and growth tests suggest that Helianthus annuus is a suitable phytoremediation plant for soils contaminated with a high concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals. The addition of humic acids also caused changes in the physicochemical properties of contaminated soils. An increase in the carbon and nitrogen content due to the addition of humic acids and a correlation between cation exchange capacity(CEC) and the organic matter content were observed.

The purpose of study were to research the characteristics of water variation adding humic acids to distilled water after ozonation. Upon investigating pH variation with contact time after providing distilled water+air, distilled water+ozone and distilled water-humic acid-air in reactor, it reduced after 60 minute in inletting air and in spite of short contact time did suddenly in inletting ozone. TOC and UV-254 continued to increase with contact time of ozone and humic acids. $NH^{4+}-N$ did slowly increase or decrease after constant contact time of ozone, because $NH^{4+}-N$ was converted into $No^3-N$ by ozone. T-N did suddenly increase after 90minute, but T-P did rarely fluctuate for total experiment. Total 30 species of organic matter were detected by GS/MSD, but 14 species did really tend to increase except for matter identified in distilled water and blank test. Humic acids generated $aliphatic{\cdot}aromatic$ hydrocarbon, alcohol and amine etc., and did various matters without inflow course of contaminants.

Three humic acids, two from uranium bearing coal shale and one from the neighbouring limey shale region, are extracted from soils by dissolution in 0.1 M NaOH followed by acid precipitation. After purification cycles, they are characterized for their elemental composition, contents of inorganic impurities, molecular size distribution and proton exchange capacities. The results are compared with the data of reference and aquatic humic acids characterized under the project MIRAGE Ⅱ at TUM and also with other literature data. The proton exchange capacity determined by direct titration, is found to be 3.60 and 2.01 meq/g for coal shale and limey shale humic acids, respectively.
