Pollutants removal efficiency in pretreatment(GAC filter, multi-media filter, disk filter) and RO facilities was investigated for the Jeju Samyang spring water source where raw water intake has been stopped due to sea water intrusion. In addition, preliminary feasibility analysis was conducted between RO and groundwater intake systems. Turbidity removal in 4 different pretreatment processes was less than 25% due to low concentration of turbidity(i.e., less than 0.21 NTU), while multi-media filter is recommended for the pretreatment facility based on the low organic content in raw water as well as cheaper operation and maintenance cost. The average concentration of $Cl^-$ in raw water was 691.4 mg/L, while that of RO permeate was 9.1 mg/L(i.e., removal efficiency was 98.4%). In addition, TDS removal efficiency was 98.1%, which was quite high. The production cost for RO system($Q=4,000m^3/d$) was $362.1won/m^3$ considering installation, operation and maintenance cost for 30 years. While that of groundwater was $262.6won/m^3$ which was low compared to the RO system. However, it is recommended to introduce RO system for Samyang water source rather than new groundwater development because Samyang water source has been discharged to the sea without any usage, while groundwater can be used for other purpose as a sustainable water source.

The present study was performed to evaluate the effect of medicinal plant extract on relieving hangovers in mice administered alcohol. The animals were divided into three groups. Each group was treated with fermented plant extract, non-fermented plant extract, or water 30 min after consuming ethanol (2 mL/kg). A locomotor activity test showed that all groups had decreased motor activity until 40 min after plant extract administration. The mice treated with water had lower motor activity until 100 min post-administration. However, the group treated with non-fermented plant extract showed increased motor activity 40 min post-administration, and the higher activity level was maintained until 120 min post-administration. The animals treated with fermented plant extract had a level of motor activity between those of the groups treated with water or non-fermented plant extract. Blood was collected from each mouse 120 min post-administration and aldehyde concentration was measured. The group treated with non-fermented plant extract had a significantly higher (p < 0.05) aldehyde concentration than the other groups. These results demonstrate that the non-fermented medicinal plant extract helped alleviate hangovers 40 min after administration by reducing aldehyde concentrations in the blood.

In order to control of water quality in Jeju harbor, variation of physical oceanographic environments was estimated using material cycle model. It is composed of the three-dimensional hydrodynamic model for the simulation at water flow and material cycle model for the simulation of water quality. The three dimensional hydrodynamic model simulation of the circulation and mixing in Jeju Harbor has been conducted forced by Sanzi River Discharge, Tidal elevation, wind and Solar heat in case of August and November, 2000 and February and May, 2001, respectively. The results of numerical model and observation show that the model can produce realistic results of current in the harbor. The monthly variation of velocity pattern are not so much changed are found In Jeju Harbor. The residual current was forced by temperature, salinity, density, wind and tidal current. The residual current of August, 2000 are the strongest among four month. It can be explained that the density effect can be important role in residual current at Jeju Harbor. As the results of salinity distribution simulation, very low concentration of all levels were simulated in August, 2000. The flowrate of Sanzi river was investigated 77,760 ㎥ /d in August, 2000. Therefore, pollutant loadings from Sanzi river should be considered for water quality management in Jeiu harbor.

Physical and chemical analyses of water discharged from 4 crowded farms (Sungsan, Pyosun, Wimi and Daejung) in Jeju island were performed from July, 2006 to Dec, 2006, and the result of the analyses showed that hydrogen ion concentrations (pH) for water discharged from Sungsan farm was 7.74, Pyosun was 7.68, Wimi was 7.68 and Daejung was 7.7. Salinity levels for Sungsan, Pyosun and Wimi had an average of 31$\sim$33 $^\circ$/$_\circ$$_\circ$ indicating characteristics of far distance areas, whereas that of Daejung was 28.81 %, which was far lower compared to regular sea water salinity. As the result of measuring dissolved oxygen (DO) for each area, each area showed first graded DO for each discharged water based on water quality level for each sea district. The result of measuring the temperature for discharged water showed that water temperatures for summer were 23$\sim$25$^\circ$C, and those for winter were 16$\sim$ 18$^\circ$C. Nitrogen concentrations for discharged water exceeded each sea area's water quality level in all farms. In the case of phosphate, its average value was 0.48 mg/l for Sungsan, 0.55 mg/I for Pyosun, 0.66 mg/I for Wimi, and 0.44 mg/l for Daejung, and chemical oxygen demand (COD) was shown to be 1.5 mg/l 1.8 mg/I, 1.6 mg/I and 2.3 mg/I for Sungsan, Pyosun, Wimi and Daejung respectively. For suspended solids (SS), the average concentration was 19.3 mg/I, 21.2 mg/I, 21.3 mg/I and 18.5 mg/I for Sungsan, Pyosun, Wimi and Daejung respectively. The results of physical and chemical analyses for discharged water in farms based on time showed that almost all items were shown to increase in the forenoon and decrease, overall, in the afternoon.

26 multi-regional water treatment plants (WTPs) were investigated, to determine the characteristics of manganese (Mn) concentration and removal in Korea. Mn concentrations of raw water in most WTPs were higher than the drinking water standard (i.e., 0.05 mg/L); thus, proper removal of Mn at the WTPs is needed. Mn concentration was generally higher in lakes than rivers due to seasonal lake turnovers. The Mn concentrations of treated water at 26 WTPs in 2012 were less than 0.05 mg/L, due to strict law enforcement and water treatment processes optimization. However, before 2010, those concentrations were more than 0.05 mg/L, which could have led to an accumulation of Mn oxides in the distribution system. This could be one of the main reasons for black water occurrence. Therefore, regular monitoring of Mn concentration in the distribution system, flushing, and proper Mn removal at WTPs are needed, to supply clean and palatable tap water.

In this study, the material cycle model was applied to suggest alternative management of water quality for Jeju Harbor. The distribution of COD, DIN (dissolved inorganic nitrogen) and DIP (dissolved inorganic phosphorus) concentrations was reasonably reproduced by simulations on the model area of the Jeju Harbor using a material cycle model. The simulations of COD, DIN and DIP concentrations were performed under the conditions of 20∼100% pollution loadings reductions from pollution sources. In case of the 100% reduction of the input loads from Sanzi river, concentrations of COD, DM and DIP were reduced to 39%, 78% and 52%, respectively at Jeju harbor. In contrast, in case of the pollutant loadings reductions from sediment, the effect of DIN and DIP reduction relatively seemed to increase around the center of study area. The 95% reduction of the pollutant loadings from river and sediment is required to meet the COD and nutrients concentration of second grade of ocean water quality criteria.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of vanadium in Jeju Island groundwater, focusing on the spatio-temporal patterns and geochemical controlling factors of vanadium. For this, we collected two sets of groundwater data: 1) concentrations of major constituents of 2,595 groundwater samples between 2008 and 2014 and 2) 258 groundwater samples between December 2006 and June 2008. The concentrations of groundwater vanadium were in the range of $0.2{\sim}71.0{\mu}g/L$ (average, $12.0{\mu}g/L$) and showed local enrichments without temporal/seasonal variation. This indicated that vanadium distribution was controlled by 1) the geochemical/mineralogical composition and dissolution processes of original materials (i.e., volcanic rock) and 2) the flow and chemical properties of groundwater. Vanadium concentration was significantly positively correlated with that of major ions ($Cl^-$, $Na^+$, and $K^+$) and trace metals (As, Cr, and Al), and with pH, but was negatively correlated with $NO_3-N$ concentration. The high concentrations of vanadium (>$15{\mu}g/L$) occurred in typically alkaline groundwater with high pH (${\geq}8.0$), indicating that a higher degree of water-rock interaction resulted in vanadium enrichment. Thus, higher concentrations of vanadium occurred in groundwater of $Na-Ca-HCO_3$, $Na-Mg-HCO_3$ and $Na-HCO_3$ types and were remarkably lower in groundwater of $Na-Ca-NO_3$(Cl) type that represented the influences from anthropogenic pollution.

2003년 8월과 2004년 9월 제주도 남서부해역과 중국 연안해역을 대상으로 실시된 본 연구는 용존무기영양염류와 용존 및 입자유기탄소의 분포 특성을 조사하였다. 하계에 동중국해의 영양염의 분포 형태는 수괴 및 식물플랑크톤의 영향을 받은 것으로 밝혀졌다. 하계에 동중국해내 수괴들은 중국의 연안해역을 제외하고 상하수직혼합이 잘 일어나지 않아 표층수에는 영양염의 유입이 감소하고, 저층수에는 표층에서 유입되는 유기물이 분해되어 영양염의 축적이 일어나 높은 농도를 나타내고 있었다. Chlorophyll a의 농도가 높은 해역에서 영양염의 농도가 낮은 값을 보였으며, Chlorophyll a의 농도가 감소하는 수심이하에서 영양염의 농도가 증가함을 보여 높은 생물활동에 의한 무기영양염류 등이 조절되고 있는 것으로 생각된다. 연구해역내 용존유기탄소의 분포는 염분이나 수온에 대해 다소 산만한 분포를 보여 수괴에 따른 상관관계가 없는 것으로 조사되었고, 양자강 영향 정점에서 $100{\mu}M$이상의 높은 값을 보인 반면, 제주도 남서부 해역에서는 낮은 농도를 보였는데, 이것은 양자강 유출수가 동중국해 용존유기탄소의 공급원으로 작용하고 있는 것으로 사료된다. 연구해역 입자유기탄소의 분포특성은 양자강 유출수가 영향을 미치는 중국연안해역에서 평균 $9.23{\mu}M$로 가장 높은 농도를 보였으며, 대마난류수의 영향을 받는 제주도 남동부해역에서 $3.04{\mu}M$로 낮은 농도를 보였으며, 중앙부해역에서 $7.23{\mu}M$의 입자유기탄소량을 나타내, 양자강 유출수가 자생적 기원이외의 입자유기탄소 공급원으로 작용하고 있는 것으로 사료된다. 제주도 남서부해역에서의 입자유기탄소는 Chlorophyll a의 농도와 높은 상관성을 보여 자생적 기원으로 볼 수 있지만 그 해역에서의 염분도가 저염(30%o 이하)을 나타내고 있어 자생적 기원보다는 육상기원에 의한 영향으로 생각되어진다.

To evaluate characteristics of water quality in Jeju, a study was implemented for Han stream and retention ponds. Inflow water quality of retention ponds was heavily dependent on precedent rainfall, and no pesticide was detected due to the little artificial pollution sources. A smooth settling efficiency curve was noticed because heavy particles were already settled down in front of the retention pond. There were weak relationships between retention time and water quality, and this can be attributable to high concentration of pollutants influx at peak inflow. In addition, as Han stream retention pond has a role of groundwater recharge, inflow control based on water quality as well as quantity is needed to maximize pollutant removal at the retention ponds.
