  • Heavy metal pollution in arable field is an critical problem due to crop safety. For this reason, national survey of heavy metal pollution in the arable field near at the industrial area has been conducted from 1999 in Korea. The main purpose of this research was to monitor heavy metal pollution in Chungnam/chungbuk province and to evaluate pollution index (PI) in soil. Total of 15 sampling locations were examined and average concentration of each heavy metals were following: As - $2.99{\pm}2.63$, Cd - $0.23{\pm}0.07$, Cu - $9.35{\pm}6.48$, Ni - $9.26{\pm}8.03$, Pb - $10.18{\pm}3.32$, Zn - $52.9{\pm}17.18$. No sampling site was exceeded threshold level of each heavy metals. Calculated PI in soil was ranged between 0.03 - 0.27 indicating that also no heavy metal pollution is occurred in examined sampling locations. Although, no heavy metal pollution was observed in the examined sites but monitoring of heavy metal pollution should be continued for possible accidental pollution in arable field near at the industrial area.

  • The coastal environment of King George Island is potentially subject to contamination by pollutants arising from station operations, such as emissions from fossil fuel burning, oil spills, waste disposal, etc. As a preparatory step to assess such impacts on the marine environment and living organisms of this island, two molluscan species (the bivalve Laternula elliptica and the gastropod Nacella concinna) were selected as biomonitors for metal pollution monitoring, and their baseline levels have been investigated for the past several years at King Sejong Station. In this review, variability of the baseline levels is discussed in relation to body size, tissue type, and sex. Natural elevations of some metals are also discussed with respect to the environmental characteristics of this region.

  • Recently, people have concerned about environmental pollution. This environmental pollution occur due to many reasons such as heavy metal ions and anions. In this regard, many researchers have studied organic materials to monitor above reasons to protect environmental pollution. One of the organic materials for this function is chemosensor. This chemosensor has been studied and reported about monitoring toxic heavy metal ions and anions. In this study, the dye sensor was designed and synthesized through reaction of Rhodamine 6G and 1,3-Indanedion. this dye sensor selective detected $Hg^{2+}$ metal ions while showing red color absorption and yellowish-green strong fluorescence emission compared to other heavy metal ions such as $Cu^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$, $Ag^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Fe^{2+}$ and $Fe^{3+}$. In this regard, we anticipated that this dye senosr can provide an significant material for monitoring mercury which cause environmental pollution. Thus, We investigated detailed properties of this dye sesnor with using UV-Vis absorption and fluorescent spectrophotometer, Job's plot method for metal binding complex, computational simulated calculation named Material Studio 4.3 suite to approach for electron distribution and HOMO/LUMO.

  • Concentrations of Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb and Cd in two seaweed species (Sargassum miyabei and S. pallidum) from different areas in Amursky Bay near Vladivostok were determined. An assessment of heavy metal pollution in this bay was made and the results were compared with those from some localities in the world ocean.

  • In this study, heavy metal levels at the sediment monitoring network site upstream of the Gangjeong-Goryeong weir in the Nakdong River were surveyed from 2012 to 2016. We assessed the sediment pollution level using various pollution indexes based on ICP-MS analysis. The stream sediment pollution assessment standard, established through Regulation No. 687 of the National Institute of Environmental Research (2015), pollution load index (PLI), potential ecological risk index (RI), and mean PEL Quotient (mPELQ) were used to evaluate the sediment pollution level. We verified the representativeness of the monitoring point through the distribution of sedimentation and scour behavior by river bed surveying using anacousticDopplercurrentprofiler.

  • 완전산분해법과 단일시약(1 M HCl) 추출법을 이용하여 울산-온산연안 표층퇴적물 내 미량금속의 오염도 및 생태위해성을 평가하였다. 표층퇴적물 내 미량금속 중 Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Hg의 농도는 울산연안에 비해 온산연안에서 2배 이상 높게 나타났다. 단일시약 추출 분석 결과, Cd과 Pb은 총함량 중 가용성부분의 평균 함량이 각각 72%, 78%로 인위적 기원에 의해서 주로 공급되는 것으로 나타난 반면, Cr, Li, Ni, As는 잔류성부분에서 평균 80% 이상 존재하여 주로 자연적 기원의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 국내 해저퇴적물 해양환경기준과 비교한 결과, Cu, Pb, Zn, Hg의 총농도는 온산연안 일부 정점에서 관리기준을 초과하였으며, Cr, Ni은 모든 정점에서 주의기준 이하였다. 미량금속의 오염도 및 생태위해성을 다양한 지수(EF, $I_{geo}$, m-PEL-Q, ERI)로 평가한 결과, 울산-온산연안에서 미량금속 중 Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn, Hg의 오염도가 높았으며, 생태계에 잠재적 위해성은 Cd과 Hg이 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다.

  • Many countries have adopted a single, well-described approach to the use of phototrophs for monitoring river water quality, which involves the use of indices related to diatom composition at a site. Increasingly these indices have focussed on assessing ambient phosphate concentration. However, there is a wide range of other methods which can provide additional information to make up for any weaknesses in the standard method. Some of these methods are reviewed briefly here. They can be useful, for instance, when considering temporal and spatial variability in phosphate concentration at a particular site and providing much more insight on heavy metal or pesticide pollution than revealed by routine water analysis.

  • 마산만 표층퇴적물에서 미량금속의 오염도 및 잠재적 생태계 위해도를 평가하기 위하여 미량금속(Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Ni)의 총 농도 및 화학적 존재형태를 분석하였다. 미량금속의 농도는 Ni을 제외한 모든 금속이 만의 내측에 위치한 마산항 주변에서 높게 나타났다. 미량금속의 화학적 존재형태 중 Cd과 Pb은 비잔류 부분이 각각 92%, 88%로 인위적 기원에 의해서 주로 공급되는 것으로 나타난 반면, Ni은 잔류 부분이 70%로 주로 자연적 기원에 의해서 공급된 것으로 나타났다. 미량금속의 오염도 및 생태계 위해도를 다양한 지수로 평가한 결과, pollution load index (PLI)는 만의 바깥쪽 정점을 제외한 모든 정점에서 1을 초과하여 인위적 오염 상태를 보였다. Ecological risk index (ERI)는 만의 내측에서 considerable 또는 moderate risk 수준이었으며, 만의 바깥쪽에서는 low risk 수준이었다. Cd의 ecological index (Ei) 값은 대부분의 정점에서 높게 나타났으며, Cd이 산가용성 부분에서 가장 높은 농도를 보여 Cd이 마산만에서 저서생물에게 잠재적으로 높은 위해도를 미칠 것으로 판단된다.

  • In this study, the effects of reclaimed wastewater irrigation on the concentration of heavy metals such as lead, zinc, cadmium, and copper in soil and vegetables were investigated by monitoring an experimental area irrigated with reclaimed wastewater. Three treatments and three replications on $10{\times}2$-m plots were installed and heavy metal concentrations in soil and vegetables were monitored from 2005 to 2007. The treatments applied in this study were groundwater irrigation (control treatment), wastewater irrigation, and irrigation with filtered reclaimed wastewater treated with ultraviolet light. The monitored results showed that the concentrations of Cu, Cd, and Pb in soil during the experimental period were lower than initial soil levels before irrigation, whereas Zn increased in all treatment plots. However, the ranges of Zn, Cu, Cd and Pb in soil were below the soil pollution standards in the Republic of Korea. Heavy metal concentrations in vegetables showed insignificant variations for all treatments.
