The purpose of this study is to evaluate substrate interactions of BTEX for multicomponent. Although BTEX compounds have similar chemical structures, biodegradation of individual BTEX is different with the present of certain BTEX compounds. The biodegradation rate is order to Benzene=Toluene>Ethylbenzene> m, p-Xylene>o-Xylene. Xylenes is stimulated when benzene or toluene is present. Especially o-xylene Inhibit other BTEX compounds.

A microbial consortium derived from a gasoline-contaminated sites was enriched on toluene in 100-mL serum bottle and was found to degrade benzene(B), toluene(T), ethylbenzene(EB), and xylenes(X). Studies conducted to determine the temperature effects and BTEX concentration on BTEX degradation. The results indicated that lowering temperature significantly decreased BTEX degradation rates and varing the BTEX concentration also changed substrate degradation patterns.

본 논문에서는 점오염원 형태의 유류누출이 발생되었던 실트질 토양층에서 BTEX와 TPH 성분의 오염특성이 연구되었다. TPH 성분의 토양오염기준별 초과율은 BTEX 성분에 비해 $1.5{\sim}1.7$ 배정도 높았다. BTEX와 TPH 성분의 채취지점별 평균과 최대값은 B-zone>A-zone>C-zone의 순이며, 두 성분 모두 지표면하 $1{\sim}2m$구간에서 오염농도가 가장 높게 나타났다. 오염원에서 수리경사 하부 방향으로 120m와 80m 이내인 지역에서는 BTEX와 TPH 농도가 이격거리에 따라 증가하였으며, 120 m 이상 이격된 지역에서는 토양오염기순 이하인 것으로 나타났다. BTEX와 TPH 성분에 대한 지시크리깅의 제한값으로는 토양오염 확인기준, 우려기준 및 대책기준 값이 적용되었다. 지시변환된 자료의 베리오그램 분석에 의하면, BTEX와 TPH성분 모두 선형모델이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 선형모델을 적용한 BTEX와 TPH 성분의 확률도에서 토양오염 확인기준과 우려기준의 오염 범위는 유사하게 나타났으나, 대책기준의 오염 범위는 매우 축소되었다. 토양오염 확인기준, 우려기준 및 대책기준에 의해 작성된 확률도에서 BTEX와 TPH 성분의 최대 오염 확률은 BTEX성분이 26%, 26% 및 13%, TPH 성분은 44%, 38% 및 26%인 것으로 추정되었다.

본 연구는 1997년부터 1998년까지 서울시 관할구역 안의 토양오염 실태를 파악하기 위하여 설치한 측정망 90개 지점에서 토양 시료를 채취하여 분석하였다. 이 연구는 토양측정망 내의 BTEX농도를 Purge & Trap방법으로 측정, 분석하였다. 결과로서는 서울시내의 90개 지점 모두 BTEX가 검출되었다. BTEX의 1998년 최소, 최대 평균농도는 각각 0.047mg/kg, 2.618mg/kg, 0.437mg/kg 이었으며 90개 지점모두 토양환경보전법의 토양오염 우려기준(공장 산업지역)보다 낮은 농도를 나타내었다.

유류로 오염된 토양에 과산화수소를 주입 후 펜톤유사반응을 유도하여 유류오염토양의 복원 가능성을 조사해 보았다. 과산화수소의 분할 주입 후 TPH와 BTEX 제거율은 최고 99.04 %와 99.25%로 각각 나타났으며, BTEX와 TPH가 혼합 오염된 토양에서 펜톤유사반응을 적용하였을 때 BTEX의 분해보다 TPH의 분해가 빠르게 진행되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This study was performed to provide the basic data for the function of BTEX removal for compact electrostatic precipitator which are applicable to indoor environment (or closed spaces). For this purpose, the adsorption equilibrium test was conducted for BTEX of activated carbon sheet (ACS) and activated carbon (AC), and the adsorption characteristics of AC and ACS were evaluated using the Langmuir constant which was obtained from the adsorption characteristics, adsorption capacity and regression calculation. The surface area and adsorption pore volume of ACS reduced by 70% and 86%, respectively, as compared to those of AC, and the adsorption capacities of BTEX also showed a similar level. Thus, it is considered that ACS applied electrostatic precipitator is able to remove dust and BTEX simultaneously.

Oil이나 Gas생산시 발생하는 Produced water의 양은 미국 내에서만 연간 수십억 배럴에 육박한다. 이러한 Produced water의 재이용을 위한 첫 번째 과제는 유해 유기물질을 제거하는 것으로, 본 연구에서는 수중의 BTEX를 가스상태로 변화시킨 후 Vapor phase biofilter (VPB)로 분해, 제거 효능을 평가하였다. VPB 시스템은 짧은 기간의 시스템 shutdown에는 거의 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 주입 되는 농도가 Peak 형태를 가질때는 제거효능의 저하가 관찰 되었으며, 이중 Benzene이 가장 민감하게 반응하였다. 이를 위한 해결책으로 GAC로 충진된 Buffering Column이 사용되었으며, 이는 peak 형태의 유입농도 Profile을 완만한 형태로 buffering하는 역할을 하였다. 현장 적용을 통하여, 본 시스템이 Produced water내에 존재하는 용존 BTEX를 효과적으 로 제거할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The simultaneous biodegradation between MTBE (Gasoline additives) and BTEX (Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl-benzene, o-Xylene, m-Xylene, p-Xylene) was achieved within a competitive inter-relationship, with not only electron accepters such as nitrate, sulfate, and iron(III) without oxygen, but also with electron donors such as MTBE and BTEX. Preexisting indigenous microorganisms from a domestic sample of gasoline contaminated soil was used for a lab-scale batch test. The result of the test showed that the biodegradation rate of MTBE decreased when there was co-existing MTBE and BTEX, compared to having just MTBE present. The growth of indigenous microorganisms was not affected in the case of the MTBE treatment, whereas the growth of the microorganisms was decreased in combined MTBE and BTEX sample. This may indicate that an inhibitor related to biodegradation when BTEX and MTBE are mixed will be found. This inhibitor may be found to retard the anaerobic conditions needed for efficient breakdown of these complex carbon chain molecules in-situ. Moreover, it is also possible that an unknown competitive reaction is being imposed on the interactions between MTBE and BTEX dependent on conditions, ratios of mixture, etc.

BACKGROUND: Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX), which are volatile aromatic hydrocarbons and main constituents of gasoline, are neuro-carcinogenic organic pollutants in soil and groundwater. Korea Ministry of Environment has established the maximum permissible level of BTEX in arable soil to 1, 20, 50 and 15 mg/kg, respectively. METHODS AND RESULTS: To understand an arable soil contamination by BTEX, we collected 92 samples from the arable lands around oil reservoir, and analyzed the BTEX residue using a GC-MS with head-space sampler. A linear correlation between BTEX concentration and peak areas was detected with coefficient correlations in the range of 0.9807-0.9995. The method LOQ of BTEX was 0.002, 0.014, 0.084, and 0.038 mg/kg, respectively. Recoveries of 0.5 mg/kg BTEX were found to be 73.7-96.9%. The precision was reliable since RSD percentage (0.7-7.5%) was below 30, which was the normal percent value. Also, BTEX in all samples were detected under the LOQ. CONCLUSION: These results showed that the investigated arable soils around airport and oil reservoir in Korea were not contaminated by oils.

A simple and rapid simultaneous analysis method of BTEX and TPH in soil was developed. 5g of soil sample were mixed with sodium sulfate and then extracted with 10 mL of mixture of acetone and dichloromethane (1:1). Extraction was performed for 10 min in sonicator and analysis was with GC-FID. The detection limits of BTEX and TPH was 0.8 and 10 mg/kg, respectively. The analytical recoveries were >90% for all BTEX and TPH. Low boiling point fuels and high boiling point fuels are consistently reproduced within RSD 7%. The analysis results show very simple and rapid quantitation of BTEX and TPH in soil sample with low RSD.
