하천에서의 1차원 수질해석에 널리 사용되는 QUAL2E 모형은 전체 대상구간을 요소(element)로 구성하고 다시 수리학적으로 유사한 흐름특성을 가진 구간(reach)으로 구분하고 있다. 각 구간에서는 동일한 유속과 수심이 형성되는 것으로 가정하고 있기 때문에 자연하도의 다양한 흐름변화, 특히 자연하천의 보나 낙차공으로 인한 국부적인 흐름상태를 모형에 반영하기 어려우며, 이로 인한 실제 흐름특성과의 차이는 수질모의 해석결과에도 다양한 영향을 미치게 된다. QUAL2E 모형에서는 이와 같은 보나 낙차공의 수리학적 특성을 반영하기 위해 댐 계수옵션이 있으며, 이를 통해 흐름으로 인한 폭기 현상을 재현하도록 되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 모형 내 재폭기 계수에 대한 민감도 검토를 수행하였으며, 한강의 팔당댐부터 한강대교까지를 대상구간으로 잠실수중보로 인해 발생하는 재폭기 현상에 관해 연구하였다. 본 연구는 보나 낙차공이 있는 하천에 대해 QUAL2E 모형을 적용할 경우 용존산소(DO)를 비롯한 여러 가지 수질변수의 정확도 높은 예측에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Reaeration phenomena, the physical process of absorption of oxygen from atmosphere, is one of the important parameters of dissolved oxygen simulation in streams. This study was aimed at predicting reaeration coefficients in rural small streams, examining the influence of drop structure on reaeration and the seasonal fluctuation of reaeration coefficients. Reaeration coefficients of five streams including four tributaries of Bokha watershed in Gyeonggi Ichon and Onyang stream in Chungnam Onyang were measured. Constant rate injection (CRI) method using propane and Rhodamine-WT as gas and dye tracer was adopted. Reaeration coefficients ranged between 6.16 and 29.16 reciprocal day, higher than those in USGS database. Prediction equation,$k_2=CV^{0.593}$, was regressed from the measured data at 95% confidence level, with an absolute error of 21.2% and a standard error of 4.0 reciprocal days. Reaeration coefficients of experimental reaches with drop structure showed percentile increases of 42.3 to 159.2 compared to those without it, an indication that drop structure plays an important role on stream reaeration. Taking into consideration the seasonal fluctuation of reaeration coefficients, the values measured during September and October were the highest, mainly due to the removal of aquatic plants. by intensive rainfall during summer.

A modified gas tracer method was used to obtain reaeration coefficient from an artificial channel and a reach of Bokha stream, Ichon city. Propane was used as the tracer gas and Rhodamine-B dye as a dispersion and dulution tracer. Concentrations of propane in water sample were measured using a gas chromatograph and concentrationsof dye using UV-Spectrophotometer. To compare measured values with predicted values,commonly used 14 equations were selected . Results of this study suggested that the modified gas tracer method is a potentially useful procedure for th edetermination of reaeration cofficients. However, estimated reaeration coefficients from predictive equations were significantly different from that of this study. Therefore, when using predictive equations, careful selection of equation with consideration for hydraulic characteristics such as flow depth and average velocity, or use of newly derived predictive equation which is adequate for questioned stream would be needed.

In this investigation, off-gas generated from the activated sludge in wastewater treatment plant was monitored. Through monitoring, the oxygen transfer efficiency in the aeration system and the reliability was evaluated by comparing to clean water. First, the dissolved oxygen, oxygen transfer coefficient, and standard oxygen transfer efficiency were measured based on clean water, and the values were 8.60 mg/L, 9.490/hr and 23.96%, respectively. The off-gas monitoring at the wastewater treatment plant indicated that the standard oxygen transfer efficiency was 22.81%. Little difference in oxygen transfer efficiency this data inferred that the performance was improved through diffuser installation in the field monitoring system.

We propose a new recirculating fiber delay-line filter structure. In proposed system, we insert a fiber Bragg grating(FBG) into a recirculating fiber delay line and it operates as a partially reflection mirror. Therefore, the transfer function of the system is given by the recirculating delay output part and the multiple-reflected output part due to a FBG. By adjusting the parameters such as coupling coefficient, reflectivity of FBG, and gain, we can make the system operate in various filter.

Temporal and spatial prediction of water quality provides the necessary information to a profect planning, design, and model optimization for water quality mangement in a river system. In thes study, the QUAL II model is applied to the Keum River system from the downstream of Dae-Chong dam to the Great Pak-Je bridge. The advection-dispersion model of water quality based on the material balance and the numerical solution method of the model are presented. The enhancement of the model application is empha sized by comparing the observed and the simulated values of BOD, DO, and water temperature. Through these processes, the water quality states of the Keum River system are evaluated and the deoxignation rate, the reaeration rate, and Fair value are estimated. Also, the maintance of the target DO level with the control of the discharge from Dae-Chong dam is discussed.

In this study, using modified tracer method(Constant Rate Injection, CRI method), reaeration rates were measured in the territories of Bokha stream. In case of Kwanri stream, reaeration rates of a diversion were measured simultaneously. Propane gas and Rhodamine-WT were used as gas and dye tracer, respectively. The experimental results show that reaeration rates of the stream were ranged from 6.16 to 24.52 1/day and those of a diversion in Kwanri stream were ranged from 28.39 to 123.61 1/day. It is resulted that mean velocity of stream is a dominant factor in reaeration process and diversion significantly influence on reareation process.

This research was carried out to understand the impacts of thickness of sand capping to control phosphorus release from sediment into overlying water. As capping effectively retards release flux, phosphorus concentration in water body can be maintained if phosphorus release rate was kept under microbial degradation rate. With capping thickness increases, deaeration rate become less, while reaeration coefficient become higher. Phosphorus release rate and capping thickness were linearly correlated. The results of regression analysis indicated that phosphorus release can be controlled effectively by sand capping of least 20${\sim}$40 mm thickness.

The objective of this study is to understand the status of the water pollution in rural areas and to furnish a basic material for the management of the water pollution in rural areas. For this purpose, the Bokha river basin, Ichon-Gun, Kyungki-Do considering as a typical agricultural area was selected as a representative experimental watershed. The characteristics of water pollution in streams of the Bokha river basin was revealed by investigating and analyzing data collected for the source of pollution, water qualities in reaches of the stream, the degree of contribution to the river contamination by pollution mass produced from each source, and the status of the self-purification at the main stream. The most important source of the water pollution in investigated watershed was livestock, and the next important one were in the order of population, land use, and industry. The water quality of the Bokha river was relatively favorable judging from the BOD and COD concentration, however since the concentration of T-N and T-P showed significantly large values, it was concluded that the river was seriously contaminated by the nutrient material. The main cause of the river contamination was proved due to livestock waste. For the T-N, both land use and livestock were much more contributied to the pollution than any other source, which characterized the typical water pollution of rural areas. Run-off ratios for the Bokha river tributaries to the main stream were changed according to the similar trend to the variation of discharges in the branch streams. For the value of the self-purification constant at the main stream, it showed smaller value in the downstream reach than the middle-stream and upstream reaches, where could possibly have smaller reoxidation action due to slower velocity and deeper water depth.
