When microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi are injected into porous medium such as soils along with appropriate substrate and nutrients, biomass retained in the soil pore. Soil pore size and shape are varied from the initial condition as a result of biofilm formation, which make hydraulic conductivity reduced. In this research, hydraulic conductivity reduction was measured after microorganism are inoculated and cultured with synthetic substrates and nutrients. Biomass-soil mixture was evaluated its applicability to the field condition as an alternative liner material in landfill by measuring hydraulic conductivity change after repetitive freeze-thaw cycles.

박테리아를 토양과 같은 다공성 매질에 주입시키고 적절한 기질과 영양분을 공급시키면 박테리아는 매질의 표면에 부착하여 성장한다. 그 결과 바이오필름이 생성되어 공극의 크기가 감소하여 매질의 투수계수가 감소되며, 오염물질을 분해시키는 생물학적 오염분해 능력을 갖게 된다. 본 연구는 투수계수가 비교적 큰 모래와 화강풍화토에 박테리아를 접종, 배양한 후 토양의 투수계수의 변화를 측정하였으며, 배양된 바이오필름의 화학물질에 대한 저항성 및 온도변화에 대한 내구성 실험을 통해 대용 차수재로의 가능성을 평가하였다. 또한 bio-barrier의 유기물질 분해능 및 bio-barrier의 두께에 따른 미생물의 생장도를 column test를 통하여 측정하여 bio-barrier 내에서의 기질의 이동 및 생분해와 박테리아 농도의 분포 변화간의 관계를 제시하였다.

고준위방사성폐기물의 처분은 고심도 암반내에 처분시스템을 구축하는 심층 처분방법이 고려된다. 심층 처분은 처분용기, 완충재, 뒷채움재, 근계암반의 설계 요소인 공학적방벽과 천연 방벽으로 구성된다. 공학적방벽 중에서 벤토나이트 완충재는 암반으로부터 유입되는 지하수 흐름을 최소화하고 핵종 유출을 저지하는 기능을 한다. 지하수 유입으로 인한 완충재의 수리전도도 특성 규명은 처분장 공학적방벽의 안정성 및 건전성에 대한 성능 평가에 있어 중요한 사안이다. 본 연구에서는 경주 벤토나이트를 이용하여 다양한 건조밀도와 온도 조건에 따라 포화 수리전도도 실험을 수행하였으며, 120개의 실험 결과를 다중 회귀 분석을 통해 수리전도도 추정 모델을 제시하였다. 실험 결과에서는 건조밀도가 커질수록 수리전도도가 감소하는 경향이 나타났다. 또한, 온도가 증가할수록 수리전도도가 증가하였다. 이러한 실험 결과들을 종합한 다중 회귀 분석 결과에서는 수리전도도 추정식의 결정계수(R²)가 0.93으로 높게 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제시된 수리전도도 추정식은 벤토나이트 완충재의 성능과 연관된 건조밀도와 온도의 영향을 고려하여 처분시스템의 공학적방벽 설계에 활용 될 것으로 판단된다.

Capillary barriers, consisting of relatively fine-over-coarse materials, have been suggested as an alternative to traditional compacted soil covers. So, We were analysed to capillary barrier effect according to five cases of multi-layer cover systems. Water balance simulation was conducted with unsaturated flow model HELP to assess unsaturated hydraulic parameters such as hydraulic conductivity, climate affecting the performance of capillary barriers. Simulation were conducted for 5 Cases in the Ulsan area. Result of simulation indicated that three cases was formed unsaturated condition and capillary barrier effect.

In the design of HLW repositories, it is important to confirm the performance and safety of buffer materials at high temperatures. Most existing models for predicting hydraulic conductivity of bentonite buffer materials have been derived using the results of tests conducted below 100℃. However, they cannot be applied to temperatures above 100℃. This study suggests a prediction model for the hydraulic conductivity of bentonite buffer materials, valid at temperatures between 100℃ and 125℃, based on different test results and values reported in literature. Among several factors, dry density and temperature were the most relevant to hydraulic conductivity and were used as important independent variables for the prediction model. The effect of temperature, which positively correlates with hydraulic conductivity, was greater than that of dry density, which negatively correlates with hydraulic conductivity. Finally, to enhance the prediction accuracy, a new parameter reflecting the effect of dry density and temperature was proposed and included in the final prediction model. Compared to the existing model, the predicted result of the final suggested model was closer to the measured values.

Estuary barrier is a hydraulic structure constructed to supply safely water as protecting chlorine penetration of sea water. However, the barrier brings about a problem which decreases original functions of estuary because hydraulic ecology was disrupted as obstructing natural water exchange between fresh water and sea water. It is important to supply Enough fresh water in the estuary ecosystem. But it is possible to reduce the problems brought from barrier throughout efficient water gate operation of estuary barrier. It was shown in this study that the environmental effect of estuary in Nakdong river was investigated according to the control of water level. Also, the basic information about the effective water gate operation was provided. The analysis results showed that the release rate of estuary was increased about 20% as changing the operational water levels. This helps supplying fresh water durably to the mixing zone. Also, CE-QUAL-W2 model was utilized to assess water quality. The values of BOD and COD were not changed in estuary area. From the result, it was analyzed the effect of water quality according to the water gate operation was not indicated.

This study investigated the purification process of groundwater contaminated with zinc and arsenic using a permeable reactive barrier with a zero-valent iron/pumice mixture. We determined the removal rates of the contaminants for 30 days. In this study, column reactor filled with the zero-valent iron/pumice reactive mixture was used. Experimental results showed that the mixture exhibited an almost complete removal of the zinc and arsenic ions. Arsenic was removed via co-precipitation and adsorption processes while zinc ions were asorbed in active sites.The purification process of water from the metal ionscontinued for 30 days with constant hydraulic conductivity because of the enhanced porosity of the pumice and interparticle distance between the zero-valent iron and pumice. Contaminants removal rates and the remediation mechanism for each reactive system are described in this paper.

Geosynthetic Clay Liners(GCLs) have been widely used as hydraulic barrier in landfills and remediation projects of contaminated sites. The aim of this research is to modify GCLs for effective removal of contaminants. We perform the free swell test, hydraulic conductivity test, and contaminants (TCE, hexavalent chromium, and nitrate) removal test on the bentonite-ZVI mixture with various ZVI content. As the ZVI content increased, contaminants removal efficiencies and swell volume increased, and hydraulic conductivity decreased.
