Waste lime is produced as by-products in chemical industry, Reuse of waste lime mixed with soil for banking and backfill material in civil works was analysed in this study. For this purpose, environmental effect of waste lime admixtures was tested. Thus, this study presents the leaching characterization of waste lime in laboratory batch and column tests. Countermeasure for reduction of environmental effects was suggested from the test results.

The adhesion of hydrocarbon degrading bacteria(HDB) differing in surface hydrophobicity was investigated. Cell wall hydrophobicity was modified chemically and physiologically. Modified adhesion deficient mutant of HDB was selected in a soil column assay Physiologically and chemical modification increased cell surface hydrophobicity. Cell surface charcteristis including BATH and zeta potential were measured. Physiological modification using ampicillin was not stable, but chemical modification was stabel. Hydrocarbon degrading potential was measured for modified and unmodifed HDB.

This paper describes a simple procedure for the quantitative analysis of 7 PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) in soils on the waste reclaimed land, The procedure involved sample clean up using silicagel column, acetonitrile partition and sulfuric acid procedures. The instrumental technique is applied GC/PDD(gas chromatography/pulsed discharge detector) and GC/ECD(gas chromatography/electron capture detector). Concentration of $sub-{\mu}g/g$ level was attainable with 20g soils on the waste reclaimed land.

Salt accumulation is one of themajor problems in soils under protected cultivation . Since protected cultivation does not have rainfall or excessive irrigation, salt accumulaiton inthe soils is inevitable. In this study, characteristics of salt accumulation in soil column were ivestigated, and a salt-extracting method was tested to see its effectiveness. The results showed that the concentration of salt in top soil layers increased and electrical conductivity as thesalt concentration decreased especially in the top soil layer .When extraction medium was applied.

Because of the limited land in Korea most of the projects require large-scale reclamation. The hydraulic-filled soil deposits are usually loose and susceptible to be liquified during earthquake. The dynamic deformation characteristics which expressed by shear modulus and damping ratio are important to analyze the earthquake ground motion. In this paper resonant column tests were performed on five hydraulic filled soil in Korea and the deformational characteristics at both small and medium strains were investigated. The coefficients in the Hardin equation to predict the representative maximum shear modulus and modulus reduction cure are also proposed.

The packed column experiments were conducted with commercial Jumunjin sand(SOM content : 0.01 %) and a field soil(SOM content : 0.08 %) in order to understand the effects of water content and soil organic matter(SOM) on the transport of gaseous ozone in unsaturated soil contaminated with phenanthrene. Water content and SOM content were artificially controlled. As water content increased, earlier breakthrough was observed in the beginning of BTC of ozone, because direct contact of gaseous ozone with SOM and phenanthrene was prevented by water film formed between soil particles and gaseous ozone. The total removal of phenanthrene in Jumunjin sand was not affected by water content which was more than 99% at different water content(4.4, 8, 17.3%). However, the removal in field soil at water content 6.5 % and 20 % was 98% and 80 %.

This study conducted a laboratory work to determine the change of dielectric constant of saturated soil porous media, which is injecting EML to use Frequency Domain Reflectometry(FDR) system and length 7cm-length measurement sensor. It is purpose of study that estimate a movement path through pore of soil for an ethanol mixing liquid(EML) which have the same specific gravity of water at $20{\;}^{\circ}C$, and determine to a dielectric measuring range for the measurement sensor. As an outflow point of saturated soil column upper part recedes from an EML inject point in EML diffusion test, the diffusion extent of EML through pore of saturated soil was expanded. And results of ail EML flow experiment were measured the change of dielectric constant at all measurement sensors which are placed to constant interval at the same travel time for saturated soil column. Therefore, the displace process of water that exist in pore of saturated soil by EML injection is enough available and confirm together mobility through pores.

In order to analyze nutritional factors affecting in situ bioremediation of diesel degradation and cell viability were studied by varying nutritional conditions. In column experiments packed with diesel-contaminated soil, nitrogen was found to be the major limiting nutrient. When nitrogen was added to soil at four different levels of C : N (100 : 5, 100 : 10, 100 : 15, and 100 : 20 mg N/kg dry soil), the greatest simulation of microbial activity occurred at the lowest, rather than the highest nitrogen addition. However, no significant effects was observed when phosphorus and air were added. No matter how the incubation mode varied, less than 50% of the diesel was remained after 7 days of treatment, presumably because the residual hydrocarbons were adsorbed on soil particles, adsorption

To investigate the effects of cow manure compost(CMC) on soil and water environment as non-point source, the elution patterns of anions were determined in muti-layered soil columns which were consisted of one top and one bottom in combination. The top soil columns were uniformly packed with Ap horizon soils amended with air-dried CMC at different ratios(0, 2, 4, 6%, wt/wt), the bottom ones were packed with of B horizon soils of 15, 30, and 45cm in length. After saturating the each soil column, the leachate were collected from the bottom of the column while the double-ionized water was applied from the surface of the column by constant head method. From the hydraulic conductivity and anion eluted were measured in the leachate. Each saturated hydraulic conductivities for top and the bottom soils were 3$\times$$10^{-4}$sec and 1.6$\times$$10^{-3}$cm/sec. Most of water soluble chloride and sulfate, having non-specific adsorption characteristics onto the soil particles, were eluted within 1 PV, showing that there was no apparent retardation of anion movement with increasing CMC contents in the top soils. The effect of soil depths on anion movement were similar to the results of CMC contents. Sulfate of having both of non-specific and specific adsorption characteristics was also recovered in the effluent within 1 PV, while the elution curves were slightly skewed to the right showing that the CMC affected the movement of sulfate. Phosphate of specific adsorption characteristics was hardly eluted within 5 PV.
