A survey on four tributary streams in agricultural areas along Nakdong River was carried out to evaluate the effect of agricultural practices on the quality of streamwater. Typicalpaddy and upland farmings were major agriculturalpractice in two survey areas. Apple orchards were located along Imgo -Cheon. Intensive farming in plastic film house was conducted along the Habin cheon. Electriclal condutivity and nutrient contents were measured. Comparing to the reference water sample collected from very upper part of Yangsang -Cheon in Moonkyong, water in the streams studied were quite polluted and such pollution could be due to the farmings conducted along the streams. Phosphorus content were higher than the minimum level for eutrophication (0.01-0.05 mg/L). Nitrogeon content were also significantly high in many sites to cause harmful effects on crops when normalfertilizer level was applicated. Among the four stream, water quality in paddy area were relatively less polluted. High nitrogen level in Imgo-Cheon and high level of EC in Habin-Cheon were problematic. As farming is the major sources of pollution in the streams studied, this are traceable to the agricultural nonpoint sources. To maintain water quality of the stream, the agricultural nonpoint source along thributary streams should be properly controlled.

2020년 기준 국내 상수도 보급률은 99.1% 차지하고 있으며(환경부, 2019), 수도관리차원에서 수돗물은 먹는 물로 시판되어질 만큼 우수한 관리체계를 유지하고 있다. 그 반면에 지하수는 생활용수, 식품가공, 농·축산, 양어, 군부대를 비롯한 전국지역에서 연간 10억 8천만톤 용수를 소비하고 있음에도 (환겨례 신문, 2013; 환경부, 2019) 사용되는 지하수의 약 65%가 음용수 불가판정을 받았으며, 최근 지하수의 오염비율은 급격히 증가하는 추세이다. 특히, 지하수관정의 관리부주의에 의한 수질오염 및 수인성 다제내성균(슈퍼박테리아) 등에 의한 오염사례가 국내는 물론, 국제적으로 다수 보고되고 있는 실정이다 (환경부, 2013). 현재 지하수 수질관리는 공공기관 및 지자체 지정기관을 통해 진행되고 있으며, 검사기간은 수질채취로부터 통상 7~15일정도 소요되어 수질 관리 및 기준, 검사주기에 대한 애로가 많다. 현장 지하수관정에서 실시간 수질을 모니터링하고 이에 연동된 자동 수처리 시스템의 개발 및 도입은 나날이 심각해지는 환경오염 상황에서 선제적 예방과 해결방법으로 중요한 요소기술이다. 현재 지하수오염 및 부적합 음용의 수질처리는 화학약품, 필터여과, UV살균, O₃ (플라즈마)을 이용하는 것이 대표적이나, 화학약품의 경우 2차 오염이나 식품 세척 및 가공에 있어 부적합성의 한계점이 있다. 필터여과의 대표적인 RO필터의 경우 약 50% 순손실이 발생하고, UV 살균의 경우 UV에 의한 사용관리자의 위험 및 장비의 광부식 문제, O₃ 의 경우 고압전류 사용에 따른 위험성 등의 한계점이 나타나고 있다. 지하수 수질정화를 위한 광유도 활성산소(¹O₂, ·O^-₂)는 광감응제에 가시광의 빛 조사를 통해 생성되는 활성산소로의 에너지 및 전자 전이가 동시 진행되어 단일항 산소(¹O₂)와 슈퍼옥사이드 이온(·O^-₂)을 생성하게 된다. 생성된 활성산소는 유해미생물 또는 유기화학물과 개열, 제거, 치환 반응 등을 통해 미생물사멸 및 유해화학물질들이 분해 가능하다. 이를 이용한 지하수 유해미생물 사멸기술, 장비, 실시간 지하수의 분석기술 및 정수처리, 지하수 물순환 시스템 개발뿐만 아니라 지하수 음용수 및 오염개선, 지하수 기저유출에 의한 오염원 저감으로부터 지류·지천, 하천 본류 수질개선 등의 대상지역에 활용 가능하다. 또한 광유도 활성산소는 기존 상수도 수처리에 있어 오존(O₃) 처리와 이산화티탄을 이용한 AOP과정을 단일처리 공정으로, 기존 O₃ 의 특성상 확산 거리가 매우 길어 사람을 포함한 생체 내에 유입 시 다양한 부작용 발생과 O₃ 차폐시설 요구의 문제점 극복의 대안으로 환경 및 인체에 무해한 광유도 활성산소 시스템을 적극적으로 도입 및 적용해야 한다. 본 연구 목적은 정류상태 흡광분광기술을 이용한 실시간 수질 모니터링과 광유도 활성산소를 이용한 유해 미생물의 멸균효능 및 지하수 수질관리 기술로의 적용 가능성을 제시하고자 한다.

농업용수는 전통적 기능으로 농업용수 그 자체로서의 기능과 시대적 요구에 따른 지역용수로서의 기능을 가진다. 농업용수 그 자체의 기능으로 가장 중요한 것은 관개용수이며, 논, 밭관개, 하우스 시설농업에의 용수공급이다. 농업용수의 실 수요량 측면에서는 논용수가 전체용수 수요량의 60.1%로 가장 많은 양을 차지하고 있으며, 다음으로는 밭용수가 18.6%, 그 외 생활용수, 공업용수, 환경용수, 축산용수 등으로 이용되고 있다. 농업용수 수요 측면에서 논용수의 비중이 가장 높게 나타나기 때문에 본 연구에서는 농업용수 공급에 따라 농업용저수지-관개수로-논에 이르는 공급단계별 수질변화를 분석하였다. 본 연구는 경기, 충남 권역의 오염도가 높은 3개 농업용저수지를 대상으로 하였으며, 농업용수를 본격적으로 공급하는 5월부터 관개가 종료되는 10월까지 농업용저수지와 관개수로, 논을 대상으로 수온, TOC, Chl-a 등 10개 항목을 분석하여 나타내었다. 연구기간동안 수온의 변화는 18.6~34.6 ℃로서 관개수로에 가장 낮고, 논에서 가장 높은 값을 보여 주었으며, 공급단계별 평균 수온은 저수지(R) 27.6 ℃, 관개수로(C) 26.4 ℃, 논(P) 28.4 ℃로 논에서 수온증가가 나타났다. pH는 7.4~9.7의 범위로 저수지에서 최고값, 논에서 최저값을 보였으며, 공급단계별 평균값은 R 9.1, C 8.3, P 8.0으로 저수지, 수로, 논으로 이동하면서 감소하였다. 전기전도도(EC)는 저수지 수질오염도에 따라 다양하게 나타났으며, 공급단계별 평균값은 R 706.3 uS/cm, C 585.5 uS/cm, P 771.2 uS/cm로 논에서 가장 높은 값으로 보였으며, 이는 논에서 추가적인 영양분 공급에 의한 것으로 보였다. 평균 용존산소량(DO)은 R 6.3, C 4.0, P 4.5로 저수지에서 가장 높고, 수로에서 가장 낮게 나타났다. 유기물 지표인 COD와 TOC의 변화를 보면 평균 COD R 21.7 mg/L, C 14.5 mg/L, P 22.7 mg/L, 평균 TOC R 11.2 mg/L, C 8.5 mg/L, P 12.3 mg/L로 두 항목 모두 논에서 가장 높은 값을, 수로에서 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 반면 엽록소 a 평균 농도는 R 128.4 mg/m³, C 54.3 mg/m³, P 31.7 mg/m³로 저수지의 내부생산으로 다량 발생한 조류가 수로와 논으로 이동하면서 급격하게 감소하여 나타났다. 이는 저수지와 논의 유기물 성상이 다름을 보여준다. 영양염류인 총인(TP)의 평균값 변화를 보면 R 0.302 mg/L, C 0.374 mg/L, P 0.384 mg/L로, 저수지에서 수로, 논으로 이동하면서 점차 증가하여 나타났다. 이는 농업용저수지에서 수로, 논으로 관개용수가 이동하면서 오염수 유입 또는 비료 등의 투입이 이루어진 결과로 판단된다. 이와 같이, 농업용저수지의 수질이 논에 그대로 유지되어 유입되지 않고 공급단계에 따라 변화하고 있으므로 항목별 수질 변화 특성을 이해한 후 농업용수 수질관리가 이루어 져야 할 것이다.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has announced design standards for disaster-resilient greenhouses capable of resisting wind speeds with a 30-year frequency to respond to the destruction of greenhouses caused by strong winds. However, many greenhouses are still being maintained or newly installed as conventional standard facilities for the supply type. In these supply-type greenhouses, a small pile called a steel peg is used as reinforcement to resist wind-induced damage. The wind resistance of steel pegs varies depending on the soil environment and installation method. In this study, a correlation analysis was performed between the wind resistance of steel pegs installed in loam and sandy loam, using a soil hardness meter. To estimate the pull-out force of steel pegs based on soil water content and compaction, soil compaction tests and laboratory soil box and field tests were performed. The soil compaction degree was measured using a soil hardness meter that could easily confirm soil compaction. This was used to analyze the correlation between the soil compaction degree in the tests. In addition, a correlation analysis was performed between the pull-out force of steel pegs in the soil box and field. The findings of this study will be useful in predicting the pull-out force of steel pegs based on the method of steel peg installation and environmental changes.

This study analyzed temperature increase, microorganism changes, and inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms in pig slurry when treated with thermophilic microorganisms in Thermophilic Aerobic Oxidation(TAO) system. An amount of $6 m^3$ of pig slurry was treated in an $18 m^3(3.0\times2.5\times2.4 m)$ reactor for 5 to 7 days in two groups: the control of pig slurry only and the treatment of pig slurry with 6 liters of thermophilic microorganism(Bacillus sp.). To study the microorganism changes in the reactor, the populations of aerobic mesophilic microorganisms, thermophilic microorganisms and general pathogens were analyzed. To study the inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms, the levels of E. coli, Salmonella sp, Crytosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia were analyzed. The temperature inside the reactor ranged from 18 to $62^{\circ}C$ for the control while far the treatment group it ranged from 18 to $66^{\circ}C$, showing a slightly higher array. With regard to changes in microorganisms, both mesophilic and thermophilic organisms decreased from $3.1\times10^6$ to $1.2\times10^2$ CFU/ml and from $1.0\times10^4$ to $8.0\times10^1$ CFU/ml, respectively, in the control. In the treatment, on the other hand, mesophilic organisms decreased from $3.0\times10^8$ CFU/ml to $8.6\times10^5$ CFU/ml while thermophilic organisms increased sharply from $2.0\times10^6$ to $1.2\times10^8$ CFU/ml. For pathogens, Salmonella and Giardia were not detected either before or after the treatment, while E. coli and C. parvum were found to be $10^5$ CFU/ml each before treatment and negative after it. From this experiment, it was concluded that thermophilic microorganisms could effectively sanitize liquid compost by generating high temperature in the TAO system, which in turn would inhibit the growth of pathogenic organisms.

This study was carried out to determine the acceptability of liquid manure bin among livestock farmers and agricultural farmers, and quantify its malodorous compounds. The results were as follows; 1. The size of the manure bins owned by $93\%$ of 60 farmers surveyed was 200 M/T and were all in normal operation. Around $57\%$ of the normally operated bins were processed under aerobic condition. 2. Filly percent of the respondents utilized their liquid manure bin twice a year while $64\%$ used commercial microbial products to enhance maturity of their liquid manure and abatement of malodorous emissions. On the other hand, $43\%$ mentioned problems on the labor requirement, mechanical maintenance and lending cost of liquid manure processing and utilization, and the price of the commercial microbial products. 3. Malodorants emitted from livestock liquid manure bins and their boundary bin depended upon the livestock liquid manure processing condition. Within bin under the aerobic processing condition, Iso-valeric and propionic acid were ranged 0.012 to 0.07ppm and 0.17 to 2.85ppm, respectively. Within bin under the anoxic processing condition, n-butyric, n-valeric acid, and acetaldehyde were ranged 1.5 to 2.3ppm, 1.3 to 1.8ppm, and 0.8 to 2.1ppm, respectively. Malodorants emitted from the boundary of livestock liquid manure bins under the anoxic processing condition were detected the range of 0.4 to 0.9 ppm, more than the concentration of law regulation, as an acetaldehyde, but under the aerobic processing condition, they did not any detection.

The disinfectants are important to prevention of infectious diseases for livestock and have been used widespreadly in recent years. This study was conducted to determine the effect of the disinfectants on microorganisms with reference to disinfectants concentration and application period in piggery slurry. As material, chemically different four disinfectants were used and no disinfectant, as control. These four disinfectants were Acids, Basic, Aldehydes and Alkalis, respectively. The characteristics pH, moisture content and organic matter of the piggery slurry used in this study were 8.2, $98.6\%,\;0.4\%$, respectively. The initial total microorganisms of piggery slurry were $6.3\times10^5$ cfu/ml, and Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus were $1.2\times10^4,\;4.1\times10^4,\;1.7\times10^4 cfu/ml,$ respectively. The disinfectants were applied at $100\%,\;200\%\;and\;300\%$ concentrations on the piggery slurry surface. It was determined that the effect of disinfectants varied accordance to concentration and application time. The most sensitive microorganisms were Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, while Bacillus cereus was found to be durable. As a result of this study, the microorganinsms of the piggery slurry are on the decrease by all disinfectants during 2 weeks, but showed a tendency to increase in number after that time. Accordingly, the microorganisms which are concerned in the liquid composting of piggery slurry were not affected by the disinfectant after 2 weeks.
