  • This research is to apply suitable natural ecosystem evaluation criteria in order to develop the ecosystem conservation, restoration and ways to build substitute habitats as a compensation plan for damaged soundly natural ecosystems in small-scale projects such as resource recovery facility, filtration, etc. The environmental ecology evaluation i.e. generally based on their actual vegetation, community structure, wildlife, water system survey were measured the primary plans for reflecting unique natural environment level of site. As a result, it is necessary to conserve the land in fallow type of wetland, good conservative condition of deciduous forest, wetlanded watercourse for amphibia and reptiles crossing. However, the plan of filtration plant was destroyed wetland(sound ecosystem), natural forest, asian toad spawning area. According to the result of it schemed to build alternative wetland and spawning area, plan to healthy ecosystem and surface soil transplantation as compensation plan. The alternative wetland and spawning area are not only created a various water levels like depth of water is $0{\sim}30cm,\;30{\sim}60cm$, more than 1.5m but also it leads to asian toad spawning and wildlife inhabitant. Moreover, the ecosystem and surface soil transplantation be applied to use the Quercus acutissima forest resources(114 upper trees, 71 canopy trees, 401 shrubs) and surface soil$(5,072m^3)$ in ecology creation sets.

  • Groundwater and animal wastes are typical example which are underutilized resources than their value in agriculture. This paper was to investigate the actual patterns of utilization of water curtain for greenhouses and methane gas utilization from swine wastes in a view point of promoting more efficient use of alternative energy. The results from measurements can be summarized as follows : 1.It was estimated that the maximum heating load per l0a was around 23,2804/hr and the heating load at January showed 3.93X 1064 respectively for strawberry greenhouses with insulation by the water curtain. 2.The average heating cost of the greenhouse with water curtain system amounted to about 75,000 Won per l0a. This result suggested that the greater cultivated area provides less heating cost. 3.The operating volume was about 73 percent of the optimum size of the digester. The net available methane gas rates of the produced gas remained close to 62 percent, But the conventional and small size of the digester was maintained at a lower level of around 20 to 29 percent. 4.It appeared that major problems of biogas production system were required to maintain the temperature of the fermentation above ambient temperature and the optimum volume of digester.

  • Providing safe and readily available water is vital to maintain public health. One of the most prevalent methods to prevent the spread of waterborne diseases is applying chlorine injection to the treated water before distribution. During the water transmission and distribution, the chlorine will experience a reduction, which can imply potential risks for human health if it falls below the minimum threshold. The ability to determine the appropriate initial intensity of chlorine at the source would be significant to prevent such problems. This study proposes two methods that integrate hydraulic and water quality modeling to determine the suitable intensity of chlorine to be injected into the source water to maintain the minimum chlorine concentration (e.g., 0.2 mg/l) at each demand node. The water quality modeling employs the first-order decay to estimate the rate of chlorine reduction in the water. The first method utilizes a backtracking algorithm to trace the path of water from the demand node to the source during each time step, which helps to accurately determine the travel time through each pipe and node and facilitate the computation of time-dependent chlorine decay in the water delivery process. However, as a backtracking algorithm is computationally intensive, this study also explores an alternative approach using a water age. This approach estimates the elapsed time of water delivery from the source to the demand node and calculate the time-dependent reduction of chlorine in the water. Finally, this study compares the outcomes of two approaches and determines the suitable and effective method for calculating the chlorine intensity at the source to maintain the minimum chlorine level at demand nodes.

  • Low impact development (LID) practices has become important to mitigate the damage from natural disasters in urban areas. Thereby many hydrological simulation models can simulate the hydrological impact of LID practices. However, commonly used models are not able to provide specific information to most users such as where LIDs should be placed and what kind of LID should be designed. In this study, a decision support system which can be used with the EPA's SWMM was developed for the determination of LID types and locations of LID practices, named Water Management Prioritization Module (WMPM), was applied to a urbanized university campus. Eight sub-catchments were selected as feasible candidate areas for the planning of LID practices. Pre-designated infiltration trenches and permeable pavements were applied to each selected sub-catchments, followed by peak and total runoffs comparison between before/after planning of LIDs. Moreover, TOPSIS, one of a multi-criteria decision analysis method was used in the procedure of selecting target sub-catchment areas and final prioritization of LID types and locations. As a result, sub-catchments S4 with permeable pavements and S16 with infiltration trenches has shown the most decrease in total and peak runoffs, respectively. Therefore, WMPM was found to be effective in determining the best alternative among various scenarios generated and simulated.

  • This study aims at suggesting an alternative to improve flood controling capacity according to the cument design criteria for the existing Soyanggang Multi-purpose Dam which was constructed 20 years ago as the largest dam in Korea. The peak inflow of the adopted probable maximum flood (PMF) at the time of construction was 13,500 $m^3$/s. However, the newly estimated peak inflow of the PMF is 18,000 $m^3$/s which is 1.34 times bigger than the original one. This is considered to be due to the accumulation of the reliable flood and storm event records after construction, and due to the increasing tendency of the local flood peaks according to the influence of world-wide weather change. The new estimation of the probable maximum precipitation (PMP) was based on the hydro-meteorological method suggested by the guideline of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The unit hydrograph which was applied for the estimation of PMF was derived through linear programming algorithm by minimizing the sum of absolute deviations of the calculated and recorded flood hydrographs. In order to adopt the newly estimated PMF as a design flood, following four alternatives were compared : (1) allocation of more flood control space by lowering the normal high water level, (2) construction of a new spillway in addition to the existing spillway, (3) construction of a new dam which has relevant flood control storage at the upstream of the Soyanggang dam, (4) raising the existing dam crest. The preliminary evaluation of these alternatives resulted in that the second alternative is most economic and feasible. So as to stably cope with the newly estimated PMF by meeting all the current functions of the multipurpose dam, a detailed study of an additional spillway tunnel has to be followed.

  • 최근 물 사용량의 증가와 잦은 가뭄 발생으로 인해 물 부족 현상이 심화되고 있다. 따라서 기존 취수원에 대한 의존도를 줄이고 버려졌던 물의 재이용을 활성화하여 친환경적이며 지속가능한 대체수원을 확보할 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 국내에서 활용가능한 물 재이용 방법은 빗물재이용, 중수 재이용 및 하수재이용 등 크게 세 가지로 구분할 수 있으나, 아직 국내에는 물 재이용이 활발하게 추진되고 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 세 가지 물 재이용 방안 중 연중 발생량이 일정하고 이용가능 수량이 많으며, 수질이 비교적 양호한 하수재이용수의 활용방안을 모색하였다. 적용대상 지역으로 선정한 용인시는 총 26곳의 골프장이 운영 중에 있으며 이는 전국에서 운영 중인 골프장의 약 10%에 해당한다. 골프장은 시설 운영을 위해 많은 양의 용수를 소비하는 대규모 수요처이므로 재이용수를 활용한다면 큰 경제적, 사회 환경적 편익을 얻을 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 용인시를 대상으로 하수처리장 인근에 위치한 골프장 내 조경용수로 하수재이용수를 활용하였을 경우의 경제적 효과를 비용 및 편익 추정을 통해 분석하였다.

  • 최근 우리나라는 온난화 현상 및 기후변화 등으로 인해 국지성 호우 발생 빈도가 잦아지고 있다. 특히 인구가 밀집되어 있는 도심지역이면서 지형적 지리적 여건, 우수배제능력 부족 등으로 인해 내수침수의 위험도가 높은 지역은 국지성 호우에 취약하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 집중호우에 취약한 장항읍을 시범유역으로 지정하고 대표적인 내수범람 해석모형인 XP-SWMM 모형을 이용한 침수해석을 실시하였다. 또한 해당지역에 알맞은 홍수방어 대책 을 수립하기 위해 다기준 의사결정기법(Multi-Criteria Decision Making)을 이용, 다양한 홍수방어 대안을 비교 및 평가하여 최적의 홍수방어대안을 제시하였다. 해당지역의 침수해소를 위해 구조적 침수방지대책(관로 개량, 우수저류지 설치, 우수펌프장 설치)을 선정하였으며, 대상지역을 3개의 소유역으로 분할하여 최적대안을 결정하였다. 2차원 내수침수 해석모형인 XP-SWMM을 이용하여 각 대안 설치 시 침수모의를 진행하였으며, 다기준 의사결정기법 Compromise Programming 기법을 이용하여 시범지역에 적합한 최적대안 우선순위를 결정하였으며, 그 결과 장항1지구의 경우 우수펌프장 설치, 장항2지구와 3지구의 경우 우수저류지 설치가 홍수방어를 위한 최적대안으로 선정되었다.

  • 최근에 이르러 기후변화에 따른 급격한 지구온난화에 대비하기 위해 많은 연구가 수행되고 있으며, 본 연구에서는 임하-안동댐 유역을 대상으로 미래 유량 변화에 대응하기 위한 다목적댐 운영 전략에 관하여 연구하였다. 미래 유량 전망결과를 이용하여 댐군을 연계운영하고 그 영향을 단독 댐 운영방법과 비교하여 평가하였다. 먼저 기후변화의 불확실성을 고려하기 위해 GCM와 통계학적 축소화 기법인 일기발생기 LARS-WG, 유출전망 모형abcd에 적용하여 미래 전망 댐 유입량을 산정하였다. 수위운영방법이 기존 댐운영방법에 대한 모의로 선정되었으며, 대안으로서 New York City rule을 적용한 선형계획법의 댐군 연계운영 모형을 적용하였다. 미래 유입량 전망결과는 과거의 연 총 유입량에 비하여 안동댐에서 평균72.81%, 임하댐에서 평균 65.65%감소하였다. 미래 유입량 전망자료를 댐 운영모형에 적용한 결과, 연계운영한 결과의 신뢰도가 평균 62.22%로 단독 운영 결과의 신뢰도 47.55%에 비해 GCM 종류에 상관없이 전반적으로 높았다. 특히 수량부족으로 인해 신뢰도가 낮은 경우, 편차는 더 크게 나타났다. 따라서 안동-임하 댐군에 연계운영을 적용하는 것이 상대적으로 기후변화에 따른 수량의 변화에 더 효율적으로 대응할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • 본 연구는 기존에 공학적 분석에 주로 치중하였던 대안수립 방법을 개선하여 경제적 측면에서 최적사업규모를 고려하는 방법을 제시하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해서 치수사업을 투입과 산출에 의한 생산활동으로 정의하고 투입과 산출조합들을 최적화하는 방식의 대안수립 방안을 제시하였다. 본 논문은 제시된 방법론에 대한 사례연구로서 영산강유역 치수계획을 위한 대안들을 최적사업규모 결정을 통해 수립하였다. 최적사업규모 결정 결과, 최적대안의 순편익이 대안 내의 대규모 단위사업안들의 순편익에 의해 좌우되는 경향이 나타났다. 이러한 문제로 인해 상대적으로 소규모의 단위사업안들은 그 효과가 과소평가되어 최적대안으로부터 제외될 소지가 있으며, 결과적으로 이들로부터 보호받는 잠재적 피해지역들이 치수사업에서 소외될 수 있다. 따라서 피해지역별로 선택적인 홍수방어를 위해서는 단위사업안들을 홍수방어 범위에 따라 전역적 홍수방어대책과 지역적 홍수방어대책으로 분류할 필요가 있는 것으로 사료된다.
