Digestate or slurry produced from anaerobic digestion is mostly applied to crop lands for its disposal and recovering nutrients. However, minimizing nitrogen losses following field application of the digestate is important for maximizing the plant's nitrogen uptake and reducing environmental concerns. This study was conducted to assess the effects of three different biogas digestate application techniques (sawdust mixed with digestate (SSD), the hole application method (HA), and digestate injected in the soil (SD)) on nitrate leaching potential in the soil. A pot laboratory experiment was conducted at room temperature of 25 ± 2 ℃ for 107 days. The experimental results showed that sawdust application method turned out to be appropriate for quick immobilization of surplus N in the form of microbial biomass N, reflecting its lower total nitrogen and NH₄-N contents and low pH. The NH₄-N and total nitrogen fate in the soil fertilized with manure showed no statistically significant (p > 0.05) differences between the different methods applied during the incubation time under room temperature. In contrast, NO₃-N concentration indicates significant reduction in sawdust treatment (p < 0.05) compared to the control and other application methods. However, the soil sawdust mixed with digestate was more effective than the other methods, because of the cumulative labile carbon contents of the amendment, which implies soil net N immobilization.

Ready-mixed soil material, known as a kind of controlled low-strength material, is a new way of soil cement combination. It can be used as backfill materials. In this paper, artificial neural network and nonlinear regression approach were applied to predict the compressive strength of ready-mixed soil material containing Portland cement, slag, sand, and soil in mixture. The data used for analyzing were obtained from our testing program. In the experiment, we carried out a mix design with three proportions of sand to soil (e.g., 6:4, 5:5, and 4:6). In addition, blast furnace slag partially replaced cement to improve workability, whereas the water-to-binder ratio was fixed. Testing was conducted on samples to estimate its engineering properties as per ASTM such as flowability, strength, and pulse velocity. Based on testing data, the empirical pulse velocity-strength correlation was established by regression method. Next, three topologies of neural network were developed to predict the strength, namely ANN-I, ANN-II, and ANN-III. The first two models are back-propagation feed-forward networks, and the other one is radial basis neural network. The results show that the compressive strength of ready-mixed soil material can be well-predicted from neural networks. Among all currently proposed neural network models, the ANN-I gives the best prediction because it is closest to the actual strength. Moreover, considering combination of pulse velocity and other factors, viz. curing time, and material contents in mixture, the proposed neural networks offer better evaluation than interpolated from pulse velocity only.

토사지반과 핵석지반에서 EPB 쉴드 TBM을 통한 성공적인 터널 시공을 위해서 굴착면 전방의 지반 정보를 정확히 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 전기비저항 탐사와 유도분극(induced polarization) 탐사를 함께 활용하여 복합토사지반과 핵석지반에 대한 전방 예측 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 토사지반의 구성은 EPB 쉴드 TBM에서 첨가재 선택에 필수요소이며, 핵석지반은 기계화 시공에서 난이도가 높은 지반이기 때문이다. 탐사는 TBM이 굴진을 멈추고 세그먼트 1링을 조립할 시에 커터헤드에 설치된 4개의 전극을 활용하여 수행된다고 보았다. 토사지반의 경우 화강풍화토, 모래, 점토로 구성된 복합지반에 대해 축소모사하여 실내실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 전기비저항은 복합지반 이론해와 상당히 일치하였으며 유도분극은 경우에 따라 전기비저항과 경향성이 일치하거나 완전히 상반되었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 실제 현장에서 적용 가능한 토사지반 예측방안을 제시하였다. 핵석지반의 경우 균질지반에서 핵석지반으로 굴착해 나가는 상황을 축소모사하였으며 핵석의 불규칙성을 난수를 통해 모사하였다. 실험결과 전기비저항은 핵석지반에 접근할수록 증가하였고 유도분극은 불규칙하게 오르내림을 거듭하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Background: This study investigated the variation of soil organic carbon in four land cover types: natural and mixed forest, cultivated land, Eucalyptus plantation and open bush land. The study was conducted in the Birr watershed of the upper Blue Nile ('Abbay') river basin. Methods: The data was subjected to a two-way of ANOVA analysis using the general linear model (GLM) procedures of SAS. Pairwise comparison method was also used to assess the mean difference of the land uses and depth levels depending on soil properties. Total of 148 soil samples were collected from two depth layers: 0-10 and 10-20 cm. Results: The results showed that overall mean soil organic carbon stock was higher under natural and mixed forest land use compared with other land use types and at all depths ($29.62{\pm}1.95Mg\;C\;ha^{-1}$), which was 36.14, 28.36, and 27.63% more than in cultivated land, open bush land, and Eucalyptus plantation, respectively. This could be due to greater inputs of vegetation and reduced decomposition of organic matter. On the other hand, the lowest soil organic carbon stock under cultivated land could be due to reduced inputs of organic matter and frequent tillage which encouraged oxidation of organic matter. Conclusions: Hence, carbon concentrations and stocks under natural and mixed forest and Eucalyptus plantation were higher than other land use types suggesting that two management strategies for improving soil conditions in the watershed: to maintain and preserve the forest in order to maintain carbon storage in the future and to recover abandoned crop land and degraded lands by establishing tree plantations to avoid overharvesting in natural forests.

A coal mine drainage sludge(designated as CMDS) is mainly generated during physicochemical treatment or electrical purification of the drainage abandoned mine that include dissolved heavy metal. To understand the possibility of an application of the dehydrated CMDS as the landfill cover medium of hygienic a reclaimed ground, an laboratory experiment was performed to investigate the physicochemical and geoengineering characteristics of the dehydrated CMDS. To improve the geoengineering characteristics of the dehydrated CMDS, the liquid limit, plasticity limit test, compaction method test, strength test, and hydraulic conductivity test ware performed with the lithification material mixed sludge. When the mixed ratio of the sludge and the lithification material was more than 1:06, the compaction method was A method, the moisture content less than 33.5%, the strength of mixed sludge was $8.2kg\;cm^{-2}$, the hydraulic conductivity was $2.7\times10^{-6}cm\;sec^{-1}$, the sludge was up to the landfill standard of US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA).

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.

외부안정성을 다룬 동반논문과 차별화하여, 이 논문에서는 심층혼합처리지반에 설치된 안벽의 내부안정성에 대한 정량적 위험도 평가를 위한 신뢰성해석 방법을 제안하였다. 내부안정성 위험도 평가를 위해 개량지반의 단지압, 전단강도 그리고 무개량토의 압출 파괴모드에 대해 MVFOSM, FORM 그리고 MCS를 적용하여 안정성을 검토하고 비교하였다. 심층혼합처리지반상 안벽의 내부안정성에 대한 신뢰성해석 결과, 흙-시멘트 개량체 압축강도의 변동성과 분포형태가 파괴확률에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 다른 확률변수들의 영향은 상대적으로 미미했다. 그러므로 흙-시멘트 개량체의 현장 압축강도에 대한 통계적 특성을 합리적이고 정확하게 결정하는 것이 중요하다.

기존 개별요소해석은 암석과 조립재료를 대상으로, 미시거동 분석과 응용을 위한 입상체 역학 및 관련 수치모델의 개발 차원에서 수행되었으나, 시멘트 혼합토(soil-cement)의 본딩 효과를 고려한 분석은 미흡한 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 한계성을 극복하기 위하여 개별요소법 수치모델 프로그램 $PFC^{3D)}$을 이용한 시멘트 혼합토의 본딩 효과 및 실내시험 결과와의 분석을 수행하였다. 시멘트 혼합토에 대한 실내시험은 재령일을 고려한 일축압축강도시험과 시멘트 함유량에 따른 일축압축강도시험을 수행하였으며, 각 실내시험 조건에 적합한 개별요소해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구결과, 개별요소법은 지반공학적 측면에서, 혼합토의 본딩 효과에 대한 미시적 거동(micro behavior) 및 전체적 거동(macro behavior)의 예측뿐아니라, 수치시험실(numerical laboratory)로서 활용될 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.
