In the fabrication of magnetic adsorbent by incorporating iron species on base materials with layered structure, there can be a potential loss of adsorption capacity from the penetration of dissolved iron species into the structure. This work newly synthesized a magnetic adsorbent by incorporating nano magnetite and glucose into layered metal sulfide via hydrothermal treatment, and tested the removal efficiencies of cesium ions (Cs⁺) by the adsorbents fabricated under different conditions (final temperature and glucose mass ratio). As a result, the optimal fabrication condition was found to be mass ratio of 1 (layered metal sulfide): 0.1 (nano magnetite): 0.4 (glucose) and final temperature of 160℃. As-prepared adsorbent possessed good adsorption ability of Cs⁺ (54.8 mg/g) without a significant loss of adsorption capacity from attaching glucose and nano magnetite onto the surface.

케라틴 단백질 분해 세균 Chryseobacterium sp. FBF-7(KACC 91463P)을 이용하여 대량생산한 닭우모 단백질 가수분해물(CPH)을 토마토에 처리한 결과, 토마토 줄기와 뿌리의 생장이 현저하게 증가되었다. 닭우모 가수분해물을 처리한 토마토 근권토양 내 세균군집 변동에 대한 계통학적 해석을 위하여 16S rRNA 유전자 서열을 기반으로 454 pyrosequencing을 수행하였다. 가수분해물을 처리하지 않은 토마토 근권토양(NCPH)의 16S rRNA 유전자 염기서열(3,281 reads)과 가수분해물을 처리한 토마토 근권토양(TCPH)의 16S rRNA 유전자 염기서열(2,167 reads)은 각각 6.33과 6.54의 다양성 지수를 나타내어 세균군집의 다양성에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 각 토마토 근권토양에는 총 19개의 문(phyla)의 세균이 존재하였고, 이중의 약 40%가 Proteobacteria이었다. Proteobacteria의 Bradyrhizobiaceae에 속하는 Bradyrhizobium, Agromonas, Nitrobacter 그리고 Afipia (BANA group)는 NCPH와 TCPH의 모든 근권토양에서 우점을 이루어 닭우모 가수분해믈 처리에 의해 토양 토착세균 군집에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다.

This study was aimed at determining the changes in heavy metal removal efficiency at different acid concentrations in a micro-nanobubble soil washing system and pickling process that is used to dispose of heavy metals. For this purpose, the initial and final heavy metal concentrations were measured to calculate the heavy metal removal efficiency 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, and 120 min into the experiment. Soil contaminated by heavy metals and extracted from 0~15 cm below the surface of a vehicle junkyard in the city of U was used in the experiment. The extracted soil was air-dried for 24 h, after which a No. 10 (2 mm) was used as a filter to remove large particles and other substances from the soil as well as to even out the samples. As for the operating conditions, the air inflow rate in the micro-nano bubble soil washing system was fixed at 2 L/min,; with the concentration of hydrogen peroxide being adjusted to 5%, 10%, or 15%. The treatment lasted 120 min. The results showed that when the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was 5%, the efficiency of Zn removal was 27.4%, whereas those of Ni and Pb were 28.7% and 22.8%, respectively. When the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was 10%, the efficiency of Zn removal was 38.7%, whereas those of Ni and Pb were 42.6% and 28.6%, respectively. When the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was 15%, the efficiency of Zn removal was 49.7%, whereas those of Ni and Pb were 57.1% and 42.6%, respectively. Therefore, the efficiency of removal of all three heavy metals was the highest when the hydrogen peroxide concentration was 15%.

The escalating growth of industrial sectors has led to a pervasive global problem—oil pollution, particularly in industrial areas. The release of substantial volumes of oil and its by-products into the environment has resulted in extensive contamination. Multiple factors contribute to the entry of these substances into water bodies and soils, thereby inflicting irreparable consequences on ecosystems, natural resources, and human health. Consequently, it becomes imperative to comprehend the characteristics and behavior of oil pollution, anticipate its impacts, and develop effective mitigation strategies. Understanding this intricate issue requires considering the physicochemical properties of the environment, the interactions between oil and sediments, and biological factors such as evaporation and dissolution. Although the oil industry has brought about remarkable advancements, its activities have raised significant concerns regarding pollution from extraction and production processes. Oil-rich nations face a particularly challenging predicament of soil pollution caused by petroleum compounds. The areas surrounding oil exploration mines and refineries often endure contamination due to oil leakages from storage tanks and transmission lines resulting from deterioration and damage. Investigating the dispersion of such pollutants and devising methods to remediate petroleum-contaminated soil represent crucial and intricate issues within the realm of environmental geotechnics.

Biological corrosion, a crucial aspect of metal degradation, has received limited attention despite its significance. It involves the deterioration of metals due to corrosion processes influenced by living organisms, including bacteria. Soil represents a substantial threat to pipeline corrosion as it contains chemical and microbial factors that cause severe damage to water, oil, and gas transmission projects. To combat fouling and corrosion, corrosion inhibitors are commonly used; however, their production often involves expensive and hazardous chemicals. Consequently, researchers are exploring natural and eco-friendly alternatives, specifically nano-sized products, as potent corrosion inhibitors. This study aims to environmentally synthesize silver nanoparticles using an extract from Lagoecia cuminoides L and evaluate their effectiveness in preventing biological corrosion of buried pipes in soil. The optimal experimental conditions were determined as follows: a volume of 4 ml for the extract, a volume of 4 ml for silver nitrate (AgNO3), pH 9, a duration of 60 minutes, and a temperature of 60 degrees Celsius. Analysis using transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of nanoparticles with an average size of approximately 28 nm, while X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited suitable peak intensities. By employing the Scherer equation, the average particle size was estimated to be around 30 nm. Furthermore, antibacterial studies revealed the potent antibacterial activity of the synthesized silver nanoparticles against both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. This property effectively mitigates the biological corrosion caused by bacteria in steel pipes buried in soil.

The objectives of this study are to examine the processing of oils contamination soil by means of using a micronano-bubble soil washing system, to investigate the various factors such as washing periods, the amount of micro-nano bubbles generated depending on the quantity of acid injection and quantity of air injection, to examine the features involved in the elimination of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) contained in the soil, and thus to evaluate the possibility of practical application on the field for the economic feasibility. The oils contaminated soil used in this study was collected from the 0~15 cm surface layer of an automobile junkyard located in U City. The collected soil was air-dried for 24 hours, and then the large particles and other substances contained in the soil were eliminated and filtered through sieve No.10 (2 mm) to secure consistency in the samples. The TPH concentration of the contaminated soil was found to be 4,914~5,998 mg/kg. The micronano-bubble soil washing system consists of the reactor, the flow equalization tank, the micronano- bubble generator, the pump and the strainer, and was manufactured with stainless material for withstanding acidic phase. When the injected air flow rate was fixed at 2 L/min, for each hydrogen peroxide concentrations (5, 10, 15%) the removal percents for TPH within the contaminated soil with retention times of 30 minutes were respectively identified as 4,931 mg/kg (18.9%), 4,678 mg/kg (18.9%) and, 4,513 mg/kg (17.7%). And when the injected air flow rate was fixed at 2 L/min, for each hydrogen peroxide concentrations (5, 10, 15%) the removal percents for TPH within the contaminated soil with retention times of 120 minutes were respectively identified as4,256 mg/kg (22.3%), 4,621 mg/kg (19.7%) and 4,268 mg/kg (25.9%).

폐금속광산과 비위생매립지로 인하여 중금속으로 오염된 지하수를 처리하기 위해 FeS를 이용한 투과성반응벽체(Permeable Reactive Barriers; PRBs)를 이용한다면 효과적인 결과를 보일 것으로 예상되어 FeS를 PRB 매질로 사용하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 컬럼 실험에 앞서 반응 매질들의 중금속 제거 특성을 알바보고자 합성 나노 FeS, 원석 FeS, 경량기포콘크리트에 대하여 96시간까지 인공중금속오염지하수와 반응을 시키는 회분식 실험을 수행하였다. 3가지 매질 모두 pH 6 이상에서 평형을 이뤘으며, 합성 나노 FeS는 반응 1시간 이후부터 평형상태에 가까워졌다. 중금속 제거효율은 합성 나노 FeS가 반응 1시간에 As와 Ni를 제외한 모든 중금속 제거율이 99% 이상으로 다른 매질에 비하여 상대적으로 빠른 제거 속도와 높은 효율을 나타내었다. 컬럼실험 결과 합성 나노 FeS로 피복된 경량기포콘크리트로 충진된 컬럼은 회분식 실험과 같은 결과로 나타났으며, 원석 FeS로 충진된 컬럼에서는 초반에 Ni을 제외한 모든 중금속이 99%이상 제거되었으나 pH는 약 9.20에서 평형을 이루었다. 본 연구에서 나타난 결과를 종합하였을 때 다양한 중금속으로 오염되어 있는 지하수를 처리하기 위한 방법으로 별도의 pH 조절이 필요 없는 합성 나노 FeS로 피복된 경량기포콘크리트를 이용한 투과성반응벽체의 적용은 매우 효과적인 것으로 판단된다.
