Oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI) can increase availability and toxicity of chromium. In this study, possible mechanisms by which pH and organic matter can control the chromium oxidation and reduction in soil system were examined using four soils of different pHs and organic matter contents. Reduction of Mn-oxides occurred in the soils of higher organic matter content (4.0%), but Mn-oxide was quite stable during the incubation in the soil of pH 7.0 and 0.5% organic matter content. Manganese oxides can be reductively dissolved at lower pH and higher organic matter conditions. The soil of pH 7.0 and 4.0% organic matter content showed the highest Cr-oxidation potential. Reduction of soluble Cr(VI) was observed in all the soils examined. The most rapid reduction was found in soil of pH 5.5 and 4.0% organic matter content, but the reduction was slow in soil of pH 7.0 and 0.5% organic matter content. Thus, the reductive capacity of organic matter added soils was much higher as compared to other two soils of lower organic matter content. In all the soils examined, the reductive capacity of soluble chromium was much higher than the oxidative capacity. Organic matter was found to be the most important controlling factor in the chromium oxidation and reduction. Reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) could be a potentially useful remediation or detoxification process, and availability and toxicity of chromium in soil would be controlled by controlling organic matter content and pH of the soils.

The chemical fractions of heavy metals were investigated in the soils of reclaimed and natural tidelands of southwest coastal area of Korea. The distribution pattern of each heavy metal in different fractions was in the order: 1) Cu : organic bound > organic complex > residual > exchangeable = water soluble. 2) Cr : residual > organic bound > organic complex > water soluble > exchangeable. 3) Pb : organic bound > residual > organic complex > water soluble > exchangeable. 4) Cd residual > organic bound > organic complex > water soluble = exchangeable. 5) Zn : organic bound > residual > organic complex > water soluble > exchangeable. The content of residual Zn showed positive correlation with organic matter content but organic bound Zn showed negative correlation with CEC. The content of residual and exchangeable Cd showed highly positive correlation with organic matter content but residual, organic bound, and exchangeable Cd showed negative correlations with CEC. Water soluble Pb showed positive correlation with CEC but organic bound Pb showed negative correlation with CEC.

A simple dye having phenol and indole moieties was synthesized and its chromogenic signaling behaviors for the determination of water content in organic solvents were investigated. The compound revealed a pronounced chromogenic behavior in response to the variation of water content in water miscible aprotic organic solvents of acetone, acetonitrile, THF, and dioxane. Significant red shifts and changes in absorption spectra allowed a ratiometric analysis of the signaling behavior. The chemosensing behaviors were particularly pronounced in water content in less than 10% that is suitable for the application of the compound as a probe for the determination of water content in binary aqueous organic solutions having lower water content.

The headspace method has been acknowledged as a cost-effective and convenient method to analyze volatile organic compounds(VOCs) in soil. The headspace analysis is based on equilibrium partitioning of VOCs among water, air and soil in a closed system. However, the headspace method cannot be applied to soils where most of the VOCs remain sorbed even at high temperature. In this study, it was investigated how the sorption characteristics of VOCs varied with soil with different organic carbon contents and temperature. This study showed that all the VOCs were volatilized, not sorved, only in the soil with 5% organic carbon at 45$^{\circ}C$ or higher. Some fraction of VOCs remained in soil with 8% organic carbon at $65^{\circ}C$ of higher. Most of the VOCs remained sorbed in soil with 12% organic content even at 95$^{\circ}C$. This result suggested that the headspace method can be applied only to soils with little organic carbon content (less than 5%). In this case, 45$^{\circ}C$ seems to be high enough to volatilize all the VOCs from soil. Large particles still showed a significant sorption capacity for VOCs from soil. Large Particles still showed a significant sorption capacity for VOCs despite of their low level of organic carbon content. It was also shown that the organic carbon sorption coefficients (Koc) of VOCs varied with soils with different organic carbon content. This suggests that not only the organic matter content of soil but also the property of the organic matter in soil influence the sorption of VOCs to soil.

토양에서 유기자원의 무기화 특성을 구명하기 위하여 질소함량별로 볏짚, 우분퇴비, 균배양체, 유박, 아미노볼 등 총 5가지를 각각 처리하여 128일 동안 실내 항온배양실험을 실시하였으며, 이 분석결과를 질소 무기화 모형에 적용하여 유기자원의 질소 무기화 양상을 구명하였다. 항온배양 기간 동안 유기자원의 질소 순 무기화율은 질소함량이 가장 높은 아미노볼에서 가장 높았고, 질소함량이 가장 낮은 볏짚에서 가장 낮았다.잠재적 질소 무기화율은 전질소 함량과는 양의 상관관계(0.96)가 인정되었다. 무기화 속도상수 k는 유기자원의 유기물(-0.96) 및 탄소함량(-0.97)과 음의 상관관계가 인정되었다. 모형에 의해 추정된 1작기 동안의 질소 무기화율은 볏짚 6.6%, 우분퇴비 11.6%, 균배양체 30.9%, 유박 70.7%이었으며 아미노볼은 81.0%를 나타냈다. 질소 무기화율은 유기자원의 종류 또는 질소함량에 따라 다르게 나타나 질소 무기화율을 유기자원의 질소 공급 특성을 결정하는 지표로 사용할 수 있다. 질소함량이낮거나 발효과정을 거치는 퇴비 등의 유기자원은 퇴비화 과정에서 유기태 질소가 안정화되어 질소의 무기화율이 무발효 유기자원보다 낮으므로 시비량 결정시 양분공급의 목적보다는 토양 물리성 개량을 목적으로 사용하는 것이 바람직하다.

본 연구는 퇴비중의 유기물 함량으로부터 탄소함량을 구하기 위한 환산계수를 결정하기 위하여 수행하였다. 퇴비중의 유기물 함량은 회화법으로, 탄소함량은 원소 분석기를 사용하여 분석한 결과 유기물 함량과 탄소함량의 관계는 "탄소함량(%)=$1.995+0.484{\times}$유기물 함량(%)"의 직선 회귀식을 따랐고, 분산분석에 의한 회귀직선의 유의성 검정은 고도로 유의하게 나타났다(P < 0.001). 기존의 토양 유기물 환산계수 1.724나 1.8을 적용할 경우, 퇴비중의 유기물 함량으로부터 환산한 탄소함량은 실제보다 10% 이상 높게 평가되어 우리 나라에서 생산, 판매되는 퇴비의 탄소함량을 구할 때는 상기 회귀식을 적용하는 것이 타당하리라 생각된다.

강원 영동지역이나 전북지역에는 유기질 함량이 높은 흙이 많이 분포하고 있다. 이와 같은 유기질토는 주로 미분해된 섬유질로 구성되어 있으므로 흙의 함수비를 측정하기 위하여 $110^{\circ}C$의 건조로에 넣고 함수비를 측정할 경우 흙속에 포함된 유기질 성분이 분해될 수 있기 때문에 정확한 함수비 측정이 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 건조로뿐 아니라 전자레인지를 이용하여 유기질토의 함수비 측정방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 국내에서 채취한 유기질 성분이 높은 흙뿐 아니라 모래, 실트, 카올리나이트와 같은 일반 흙도 실험하였다. 먼저 건조로의 온도를 표준 온도인 $110^{\circ}C$를 포함하여 $60^{\circ}C$ 또는 $80^{\circ}C$로 설정하여 흙의 함수비를 1일, 2일 및 3일 후 각각 측정하였다. 또한, 전자레인지를 이용하여 시료의 무게(30g, 60g)와 측정시간(3, 5, 9, 12, 15분)을 달리하면서 흙의 함수비를 측정하였다. 유기질토의 경우 건조로의 온도가 높을수록 흙 속에 포함된 유기질 성분이 분해되면서 함수비는 증가하였으며, 일부 시료의 경우 $60^{\circ}C$보다 $110^{\circ}C$에서 최대 2배까지 증가하였다. 한편 건조로 측정시간에 따른 함수비 변화는 대부분 온도나 유기질 함량에 관계없이 1일 후 함수비 변화가 미미하였다. 전자레인지를 사용하여 흙의 함수비를 측정한 경우 시료의 양이 30g인 경우에는 12분 그리고 60g인 경우에는 15분 정도에서 함수비가 일정하게 수렴하였으며, 전자레인지를 이용하여 측정한 함수비는 건조로 $60^{\circ}C$에서 측정한 함수비와 유사한 경향을 보였다.

The optimum dosage of quicklime in producing organic fertilizer using livestock wastes vith a greater than 80% water content was analysed. After one day had elapsed to allow for the organic fentilizer to dry, the quicklime dosage and the composition of the organic fertilizer were analysed. Any from done to the organic fertilizer was also assessed. The amount of the quicklime required to stabilize livestock wastes was determined by water content of livestock wastes. For J farm(slurry style) of which livestock wastes have 94.6% of water concentration, less than 3% of total amount of livestock wastes, for H farm (scraper style) of which livestock wastes have 85% of water concentration, less then 4% of total livestock wastes and Y farm(traditional style) of which livestock wastes have 80% of water concentration, less then 5% of total livestock wastes. Generally, in order to pack the organic fertilizer, water containing quicklime0stabilized livestock wastes should be less than 35%. It takes 9 days to keep this water content for the wastes from H and Y farms(less than 85% in water content), and 12 days for the wastes from J (94.6% in water content). According to the classification standard for compost constitution by Higgins, the crude fertilizers from all 3 farms had high grade $K_2O$ and CaO, the middle grade T-N and middle or low grade $P_2O_5$. Stabilization by quicklime is known to inhibit bacterial decomposition of organic matter and the activity of pathogenic organisms. In this study, more then 99.99% of coliform group, fecal group and viable cell count were reduced. Our results indicate that livestock wastes of greater 80% water content could be used to produce organic fertilizer without the addition of a material for moisture control.

To utilize coastal aquaculture ground bottom sediment in which concentrations of harmful pollutants are low and organic content is high as an organic fertilizer alkaline stabilizers such as CaO, Oyster shell, Mg(OH)$_2$ were added to the bottom sediment organic additives of livestock or food wastes. Nutritive qualities of crude fertilizers were measured to examine effects of alkaline stabilizers and organic waste additions. The Mg(OH)$_2$-added crude fertilizer had significantly lower total carbon(T-C) and nitrogen(T-N) content, reflecting the dilution effect due to great amount of Mg(OH)$_2$ addition. However, the addition of oyster shell had no significant effect on the T-C and T-N content of the fertilizer. $P_2O_5$ and $K_2$O content was considerably higher in the mixed sample of aquaculture ground bottom sediments and livestock wastes than in the mixture of the sediments and food wastes, resulting from higher $P_2O_5$ and $K_2$O content in livestock wastes. Addition of Mg(OH)$_2$ increased the content of MgO In the crude fertilizer but significantly reduced the content of other nutritive elements such as $P_2O_5$, $K_2$O and CaO. Addition of oyster shell as an alkaline stabilizer seemed to have the advantage of saving time and expenses far dryness due to its role as a modulator of water content. Moreover, additions of effect Mg(OH)$_2$ decreased the concentrations of heavy metals in the fertilizer by the dilution while additions of oyster shell had no influence on heavy metal concentrations in the fertilizer.

Organic kiwifruits were smaller fruit size but had higher magnesium and dry matter content than conventional, meanwhile, fruit soluble solid content was similar to conventional. There were no significant difference in polyphenol contents and antioxidative capacity between organic and conventional although there were considerable variations among sample orchards. Several minerals were also similar levels in both systems.
