The status of contaminated soils vary widely ; therefore, the techniques and equipment applicable to the soil concerned should be selected and used after careful consideration. Hyundai Soil Washing is physical-chemical separation based on mining and mineral processing principles for removing a broad range of organic and inorganic contaminants from soil. Mobile plant(capacity 15 tons./hr) was installed for this project. The goals of this project were 1) to verify the applicability of the washing process, which showed reliable results in the pilot plant with various kind of contaminated soils and 2) to promote recycling of the washed soil as a backfill on site. The results revealed that $F^-$ and $Pb^{2+}$ in the soil were effectively washed out to a certain level which washed soil was acceptable for recyeling.

기존의 오염물질을 제거하는 많은 화학적-물리적 정화 방법은 고비용과 오랜 시간을 요구하는 처리 과정 등의 단점을 갖고 있는 경우가 많았다. 따라서 흙과 수(水)환경내로 유입된 오염물질을 빠른 시간 내에 제거 할 수 있는 대안이 요구 되었다. 흙에 유출된 화합 물질 중 상당양은 흙에 의해 격리, 구속되고 이로 인해 일단 구속된 오염물질은 물과 유기 용매에 의해서도 잘 추출되지 않는 것으로 보고 되고 있다. 이러한 흙에 의한 오염물질의 비유동성(immobilization) 과정은 오염물질의 제거 기술의 대안으로 평가 될 수 있다. 기존 연구자들의 연구 결과, 화학적 혹은 물리적 반응 작용을 통해 오염물질을 흙을 구성하는 물질에 구속할 수 있음이 증명되었다. 이러한 과정 중 환경적 측면에서 볼 때, 화학적 반응이 더 우수하다 할 수 있다. 이는 강한 공유결합(covalent bonds)으로 연결될 경우 미생물의 활동이나 화학 처리로도 이를 분리하기 어렵기 때문이다. 리그닌(lignin) 분해에서 발생하는 휴믹(humic) 물질 등이 안정 된 화학적 연결을 통해 흙 매질 내에 오염물질과 결합하는 대표적 물질이다. 인위적으로 제조된 많은 화학물질은 자연적에서 발생하는 휴민산 발생원(humic acid precursors)과 닮았다. 따라서 화학물은 부식 과정(humifications process)동안 부식토(humus) 내로 병합(incorporate)되어 진다. 일단 이렇게 구성된 결합체는 생물체와 오염물질과의 반응을 방지하여 오염물질로 인한 생물체로의 독성을 감소시키는 역할을 하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 흙의 유기물(organic matter)와 오염물질과의 결합체에 대한 평가로서 다음의 항목에 대한 고찰이 이루어져야 함을 강조하였다. (a)결합체에서 생물체(biota)와의 반응에 의해 오염물질은 감소되는가\ulcorner (b) 모(parent) 화합물과 비교하여 복합체 생성물(complexed products)이 얼마나 덜 유독한가\ulcorner 그리고 (c)지하수 오염이 오염물질의 유동성 구속에 의해 얼마나 감소되는지\ulcorner

The most common soil contaminants are petroleum-based. Hydrocarbons from diesel fuel and gasoline are widespread problems, as are total petroleum hydrocarbon(TPH). There are two distinct classes of soil remediation: in-situ, or on-site, and ex-situ, or off- site. On-site cleanups are often preferred because they are cheaper. On the other hand, excavating a contaminated area and transporting it to a remote site before cleaning it can often be more complete. Ex-situ remediation also has the added bonus of taking the bulk of contaminants off-site before they can spread further. In addition, in-situ situations are limited because only the topside of the soil is accessible.

The use of colloidal gas aphron (CGA), as an external oxygen carrier, provides a promising alternative to promote aerobic bioremediation of BTEX in the subsurface environment. CGA is a stable bubble supported by three surfactant layers and can supply oxygen below the soil surface uniformly due to its plug-flow characteristic. Since CGA has a hydrophobic layer that can act as a partitioning medium for hydrophobic contaminants it is known to facilitate desorption of soil-sorbed contaminants. In addition, bioaugmentation and biostimulation are possibly achieved by using CGA when generated from a solution containing BTEX-degrading microorganisms and appropriate nutrients. In this study, we presented the physico-chemical characteristics of CGA generated from a solution composed of microorganisms and nutrients. The applicability of CGA as an in situ aerobic bioremediation technology of BTEX will be further evaluated.

National inventory of soil and groundwater contamination is an efficient decision-making tool to identify and manage existing or potential contaminated sources and contaminants. It has been used as basic data for establishing the scheme of regulations and remediation plans of soil and groundwater contamination in developed countries. This study examined classification of existing or potential sources of soil and groundwater contamination from various countries to suggest implications that required for development of classification of soil and groundwater contamination sources in Korea. Each country has provided a list of currently or potentially contaminating activities or landuses and identified some of the potential contaminants related to those contamination sources. Consideration of sources which had not been mentioned or regarded as contamination sources before was suggested for Korea situation. In addition, it is necessary to compile a list of existing data and information as much as possible to develop a detailed and practical list of various contamination sources.

Accurate prediction of the fate and transport of contaminants in soils and sediments is very Important to environmental risk assessment and effective remediation of contaminated soils and sediments. The fate and transport of contaminants in subsurface are affected by geosorbents, especially carbonaceous materials including black carbon. Various physical and chemical treatment methods have been developed to separate different kinds of carbonaceous materials from soils and sediments. However, the effects of these separation methods on the properties of remaining carbonaceous materials including sorption capacity and linearity are unclear. The objective of this study is to determine if the chemical and thermal treatment methods previously used to separate different carbonaceous material fractions affect the properties of carbonaceous materials including longer term sorption capacity of hydrophobic organic contaminants. The results indicate that treatments with hydrochloric acid (HCl)/hydrofluoric acid (HF), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) may not affect the sorption capacity of black carbon reference materials such as char and soot, however, treatments with acid dichromate $(K_2Cr_2O_7/H_2SO_4)$ and heat $(375^{\circ}C)$ for 24 hours in sufficient of oxygen) decrease the sorption capacity of them. The results of longer term sorption isotherm indicate that 2 days might be enough for trichloroethene (TCE) to equilibrate apparently with treated black carbon reference materials. The results suggest that acid dichromate and heat treatments may not appropriate method to investigate sorption properties of black carbon in soils and sediments.

A phase II site investigation and feasibility study was conducted at a military mortar shooting range near the demilitarized zone (Kyunggi, South Korea) to assess the extent of contaminants migration to the nearby Imjin river in which a flood control dam is under construction. The results showed that silty-clay soils around target areas were co-contaminated with heavy metals (Cd, Cu, and Pb) and explosives (HMX, RDX, and TNT). The total amount of contaminant was estimated to be 497.1 kg-RDX, 20.6 kg-HMX, 1.4 kg-TNT, 35.2 kg-Cd, 4,331 kg-Cu, and 5,115 kg-Pb, respectively. Both heavy metals and explosives were almost equally distributed on each soil particle size fraction. Neither subsurface soil samples nor ground water samples showed signs of contamination above the environmental criteria. The major migration route of contaminants was soil particles in surface run-off during rain at which a mass discharge rate of 30.0 mg-RDX/hour was observed.
