Potential hydrocarbon degrading bacteria were screened from the site artificially polluted with 20,000 ppm of diesel. Among the isolates, two strains, SJD2 and SJD4, showed higher activities to degrade diesel on the Bushnell-Hass broth medium containing 2% of diesel. 16S rDNA sequence analysis revealed that SJD2 and SJD4 were Bacillus fusifomis and B. cereus, respectively. Both strains were found to grow in a wide range of temperature between $20^{\circ}C-55^{\circ}C$, with the best at $30^{\circ}C-37^{\circ}C$. This is the first report, as far as we know, that B. fusifomis is capable of degrading diesel. We hope that a new isolate, B. fusifomis, will efficiently conduct bioremediation at the contaminated sites with petroleum hydrocarbons.

Determination of ultrasonic frequency and experimental design approach to optimization of ultrasonic soil-washing process for remediation of diesel contaminated soil were investigated. Ultrasonic frequencies of 35, 72, and 100 kHz were used for determination of optimal frequency. $MINITAB^{(R)}$ program was used for experimental design of optimal washing condition. The optimal ultrasonic frequency was 35 kHz. Even though the number of cavitation bubble is little, however cavitation bubbles involving larger energy compared with high frequency was generated. Therefore, the removal efficiency at low frequency was higher than at high frequency. However the input energy has to be considered when the process is applied. The statistical tests from a factorial experiment shows that the application of ultrasound and mechanical mixing are the most important factor for design of an ultrasonic soil washing process. The lab-scale experiments are required to get the optimal condition of ultrasound and mechanical mixing for application of ultrasonic soil washing process.

Susceptibility assessment of groundwater contamination is a useful tool for many aspects of regional and local groundwater resources planning and management. It can be used to direct regulatory, monitoring, educational, and policy-making efforts to highly vulnerable areas. In this study, a semi process-based was proposed to evaluate relative susceptibilities to groundwater contamination by nitrate on a regional scale. Numerical simulation based on data from each soil series was done to model water flow within soil profiles that were related to groundwater contamination by nitrate. Relative vulnerability indices for each soil series were produced by manipulation of amount of leaching flux, amount of average water storage in a soil profile, and amount of average water storage change. These indices were designed to convey the trend of leaching flux and to maximize spatial resolution. The resulting vulnerability distribution map was used to locate highly vulnerable sites easily with an appropriate grouping the indices, and was then compared with those from groundwater nitrate concentrations monitored. An excellent agreement was obtained across nitrate concentrations from the highly vulnerable regions and those from the low to stable regions.

As the development of ICT and integration technology, many changes and innovations in agriculture field are implemented. The agricultural sector has shifted from a traditional industry to a new industrial form called the 6th industry combined with various advanced technologies such as ICT and IT. Various approaches have been attempted to analyze and predict crops based on spatial information. In particular, a variety of research has been carried out recently for crop cultivation and smart farms using drones. The goal of this study was to establish an agricultural drought monitoring system using drones to produce scientific and objective indicators of drought. A soil moisture sensor was installed in the drought area and checked the actual soil moisture. The soil moisture data was used by the reference value to compare and analyze the temperature and NDVI established by drones. The soil temperature by the drone thermal image sensor and the NDVI by the drone hyperspectral was analyzed the correlation between crop condition and soil moisture in study area. To verify this, the actual soil moisture was calculated using the soil moisture measurement sensor installed in the target area and compared with the drone performance. This study using drone drought monitoring system may enhance to promote the crop data and to save time and economy.

접지설계에 있어서 토양의 전기적 특성은 접지극의 형상과 더불어 가장 중요한 설계요소 중 하나이며 이러한 토양의 전기적 특성은 접지극이 매설될 지역의 고유한 저항률, 즉 고유저항률(specific earth resistivity)로 대표되어 왔다. 이처럼 고유저항률에 근거한 수작업 접지설계는 복잡한 구조와 특성을 갖는 실제 토양을 균일한 매질로 등가화하는 절차를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 미얀마 500 kV 송전철탑 수작업 접지설계를 위하여 수평다층토양을 균일매질로 등가화하는 절차를 제시하였다.

비 수용성 유기오염물(NAPL; non-aqueous phase liquid)로 오염된 불균질 토양을 계면활 성제를 이용하여 정화할 경우 효율성을 알아보기 위해 칼럼 및 박스 실험을 실시하였다. 불 균질한 지하 내부구조는 정화효과에 커다란 영향을 끼치는 것으로 알려져 있으나 이에 대한 연구는 매우 미비한 형편이다. 2차원 불균질 분포를 잘 나타내주는 박스실험을 통하여 실제 지하매질에 가까운 조건에서 실험을 실시하였다. PCE(tetrachloroethylene)와 xylene이 NAPL로 올리에마이드(01eamide)가 비이온-계면활성제로 이용되었으며, 1%용액과 증류수를 주입하여 NAPL을 세정하였고 가스크로마토그래피를 이용하여 NAPL의 농도를 분석하였다. 계면활성제를 주입할 경우가 증류수를 주입할 때보다 최대유출농도가 약 200배 정도가 높게 나타났으며 빠른 시간 내에 대부분의 NAPL이 정화되었다. 본 실험을 통하여, 불균질 매질에서의 계면활성제를 이용한 토양세정방법의 효율성이 정량화 되었으며, 계면활성제를 이용한 채수주입법의 현장 적용가능성을 확인하였다.

토양세척 공정 시 오염물질을 제거하기 위해 사용한 계면활성제를 재사용하기 위해 활성탄을 사용하였으며 이때 계면활성제와 HOC (Hydrophobic Organic Chemical)의 분배를 예측 할 수 있는 모델을 개발하였다. 계면활성제로는 Triton X-100, HOC는 phenanthrene을 활성탄으로는 Darco 20-40 mesh를 사용하였다. 개발된 모델로 계면활성제 주입량, 활성탄 주입량에 따른 계면활성제와 HOC의 분배결과를 각각 전산 모사를 통하여 얻었다. 그 결과 활성탄이 포함된 계 내에서의 계면활성제와 HOC의 분배가 미셀이 형성되는 농도를 전후로 서로 다른 분배 양상을 보였다. 또한 전산모사 결과는 실제 실험결과를 비교적 정확하게 반영함을 알 수 있다.

In order to remediate contaminated soils with heavy metals, many techniques have been developed and proposed. However, weakness for the various techniques has been making application for actual process difficult. They have been led to the necessity for novel techniques. Therefore, in this study, novel techniques which are developing and commercializing recently in domestic/foreign country will be introduced, especially it will be focused on remediation technique for contaminated soil with heavy metals using magnetic material.

현재 세계적인 토양환경복원의 추세는 단기간의 높은 처리효율을 기대하는 장치위주의 복원기술적용에서 좀 더 처리시간은 걸리나 저비용의 효율적인 처리기술선택으로 옮겨가고 있다. 이는 지금까지 무리한 투자에서 발생한 부작용을 최소화하기 위해서 취해지고 있는 변화로 식물을 이용한 환경복원기술(phytoremediation)은 이러한 변화에 가장 잘 부응하는 발전 가능성이 매우 높은 미래 복원기술 가운데 하나이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 phytoremediation을 이용하여 디젤로 오염된 토양을 복원하고자 하였다. 먼저 대상오염물에 대한 정화능을 나타내는 식물을 선별하기 위해 알팔파, 옥수수, 피, 물피의 오염농도별 생장 률을 살핀 결과 알팔파가 오염농도에 따른 성장저해를 가장 덜 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 알팔파의 발아 test를 거친 후 실제상황을 모사하기 위한 column test를 실시하여 디젤의 제거효율을 살펴보았다. 1)외부로부터 pipe line을 따라 공기를 주입하여 산소를 보충한 처리구와 2)알팔파를 심은 처리구, 3)알팔파와 공기를 넣어준 처리구를 설계하여 디젤의 제거과정을 알아본 결과 제거효과가 가장 높은 처리구는 공기와 알팔파를 함께 넣어준 처리구였다. 이를 통해 유류로 오염된 토양에서 산소가 미생물활동에 커다란 제한요인이라는 것과 공정에 공기주입구를 장착함으로써 식물만으로 처리할 때 대두되는 시간적 제약의 문제를 다소 경감시킬 수 있음이 밝혀져 앞으로 이의 활용가능성이 주목된다.

Soil loss by the rains has effect on natural environment. But It is difficult to find out the data that is surveyed in watershed. In this paper, we choose USLE erosion model, which could be connected easily with GSIS and available generally, and extracted factors which is entered model by using GSIS spatial analysis method. Especially, As revised USLE model, It should be applied in watershed and as it calculated soil loss before Idlest fire and behind, it analysed the degree that it have an effect on soil loss. As each analyzed factors and the result of soil loss estimate consist of 22m-pixel size, we could identify soil loss by each pixel and distribution pattern.
