본 연구는 유류화합물로 오염된 토양의 생물학적 정화효율을 향상시키기 위한 연구로서, 정화목표인 TPH 500 mg/kg을 달성하기 위하여 유기성 영양분과 화학적 산화를 추가적으로 연계 적용하여 생물학적 정화효율의 성능향상 시험을 수행하였다. 경유로 오염된 토양을 대상으로 시험한 결과, 생물학적으로 정화하는 과정에서 무기성 성분(N, P)을 영양분으로 사용하여 정화한 경우에서 보다(정화효율 80.2%) 유기성 영향분인 퇴비와 액분을 사용한 경우가 각각 84.4%, 92.2%로 높은 정화효율을 보여주었다. 난분해성 물질을 함유한 토양의 생물학적 정화과정에서 tailing 현상이 일어나는 기간에 화학적 산화와 생물학적 정화를 병행하였을 때 TPH 농도를 134 mg/kg로 떨어뜨려 정화효율 98.1%를 얻은 반면에 생물학적 정화만 진행한 경우 TPH 1,073 mg/kg로 정화효율 84.7%를 나타내 화학적 산화의 병행처리가 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

The effect of chemically oxidized intermediates of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds on the degradation of the parent PAHs was characterized and evaluated for the context of cooxidation. Anthracene and pyrene exhibited extensive degradation (mean percent removal of 57.5%) after 28 days of incubation by introducing the Fenton oxidation intermediate of the PAH compounds, while unoxidized anthracene and pyrene exhibited 12.5% removal The chemical oxidation products can serve as a structually similar analogue substrates for a consortia of soil microorganisms and as a metabolic intermediates in the biodegradation sequence of the parent PAH compounds. These results may be interpreted in the context of cooxidation mechanism whereby high recalcitrant PAH compounds are biodegraded in the soil and suggest a potential tool for bioremediation of PAHs contaminated soils and protection of groundwater.

The effect of chemically oxidized intermediated of PAH compounds on the degradation of the parent PAHs was characterized and evaluated for the context of cooxidation. Anthracene and pyrene exhibited extensive degradation (mean percent removal of 57.5%) after 28 days of incubation by introducing the Fenton oxidation intermediate of the PAH compounds, while unoxidized anthracene and pyrene exhibited 12.5% removal. Dehydrogenase activities for the oxidized PAH studies ware enhanced two to five folds to the unoxidized PAHs studies. The chemical oxidation products can serve as a structually very similar analogue substrates for a consortia of soil microorganisms and as a metabolic intermediates in the biodegradation sequence of the parent PAH compounds. These results may be interpreted in the context of cooxidation mechanism whereby high recalcitrant PAH compounds are biodegraded in the soil and suggest a potential tool for bioremediation of PAHs contaminated soils and protection of groundwater.

Electrokinetic bioremediation was conducted on phenanthrene-contaminated soil to study the effects of soil temperature and pH on microbial population and removal efficiency at different current densities from 0.63 to 3.13 mA cm$^{-2}$ . Microorganism used in the biodegradation of phenanthrene was Sphingomonas sp. 3Y, which was isolated from a diesel-contaminated site. The microorganism was successfully penetrated into the contaminated soil by electrokinetic phenomena and the highest microbial population was observed in the middle region of soil specimen where soil pH was near neutral. Therefore, phenanthrene removal occurred mainly at anode and middle parts of soil specimen due to a relatively high microbial population. Also, the highest removal efficiency of 68.8% was obtained at 1.88 mA cm$^{-2}$ while low degradation was detected at 3.13 mA cm$^{-2}$ . It was presumably because the soil temperature at 1.88 mAcm$^{-2}$ was close to the appropriate temperature of about 30'c while the temperature increase to above 45$^{\circ}C$ at 3.13 mA cm$^{-2}$ inhibited the microbial activity severely.

Bioremediation of hazardous hydrophobic organic compounds, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), is a major environmental concern due to their toxic and carcinogenic properties. Due to their hydrophobicity, the hydrophobic organic compounds are mainly associated with the soil organic matter or nonaqueous-phase liquids. A major question concerns the relationships between biodegradation and sorption. This work develops and utilizes a non- steady state model for evaluating the interactions between sorption and biodegradation of phenanthrene, a 3-ring PAH compound, in soil-slurry systems. The model includes sorption/desorption of a target compound, its utilization by microorganisms as a primary substrate existing in the dissolved phase and/or the sorbed phase in biomass and soil, oxygen transfer, and oxygen utilization as an electron acceptor. Biodegradation tests with phenanthrene were conducted in liquid and soil-slurry systems. The soil-slurry tests were performed with very different mass transfer rate: fast mass transfer in a flask test at 150 rpm, and slow mass transfer in a roller-bottle test at 2 rpm. In the slurry tests, phenanthrene was degraded more rapidly than in liquid tests, but with a similar rate in both slurry systems. Modeling analyses with several hypotheses indicate that a model without biodegradation of compound sorbed to the soil was not able to account for the rapid degradation of phenanthrene, particularly in the roller bottle slurry test. Reduced mass-transfer resistance to bacteria attached to the soil is the most likely phenomenon accounting for rapid sorbed-phase biodegradation.

The electrokinetic technology was applied in bioremediation for the purpose of supplying a Pseudomonas strain capable of degrading diesel to contaminated soil bed, and their biodegradation of diesel was carried out after a desired cell distribution was obtained. Electrokinetic injection of the strain was made possible because the cells acted as negatively charged particles at neutral pH, and thus the cells were transported with a precise directionality through the soil mostly by the mechanism of electrophoresis and in part by electroosmosis. A severe pH change in the soil bed was formed due to the penetration of electrolysis products, which was harmful to the cell viability and cell transport. To achieve a desirable cell transport and distribution, the control of pH in soil bed by a recirculating buffer solution in electrode chambers was essential during the appliation of an electric field. The judicious selections of electrolyte concentration and conductivity were also important for achieving an efficient electrokinetic cell transport since a higher electrolyte concentration favored the maintenance of pH stability in soil bed, but lowered electrophoretic mobility on the other hand. With electrolyte solution of pH 7 phosphate buffer, a 0.05 M concentration showed a better cell transport buffer, a 0.05 M concentration showed a better cell transport than 0.02 M and 0.08 M. The cell under pH 8 were obtained, compared to the cells under pH 7 or pH 9 in a given time period Up to $60\%$ of diesel was degraded in 8 days by the Pseudomonas cell, which were distributed electrokinetically under the conditions of pH 8 ($1,800{\mu}S/cm$, a mixture of phosphate and ammonia buffers) and 40 mA in a soil bed of 15 cm length.

한국해양연구소에서 분양받은 유류분해효모 Yarrowia lipolytica CL180를 이용하여 경유로 오염된 토양에 대한 질소원, 인원 aeration rate, 그리고 균체량에 따른 영향을 조사하였다. 실험결과 질소원이 미생물 성장의 limiting factor로 작용하였으며, 다양한 비(C : N =100 : 5, 100 : 10, 100 : 15, 100 : 20 mg/kg soil)의 질소원을 첨가한 결과 C : N의 비(w/w)가 100 : 5일 때 가장 우수한 분해율과 균체수를 나타내었다. 질소원이 이 비율 이상으로 첨가되었을 때 분해율과 균체수가 낮게 나타났으며 이는 암모니아의 독성으로 인한 영향으로 사료된다. 그러나 인원과 통기에 따른 경유분해율의 변화는 없었으며 질소원이 첨가된 soil column에서는 7일이 경과된 후 약 50%의 경유잔류량을 나타내었다. 잔류경유를 제거하기 위하여 최초 접종량과 동일한 양의 균주를 접종하였으나 일정기간의 경과후에도 경유잔류량은 거의 변화가 없었다. 이는 경유의 토양 흡착 때문으로 사료된다.

디젤로 오염된 토양에서 유기질비료의 투여가 석유계탄화수소의 생분해에 미치는 영향을 연구하는 한편, 토양의 생태활성과 디젤의 분해도의 관계를 규명하기 위하여 토양내 ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate)농도를 측정하였다. 초기의 자연상태에서 65 ng/g이었던 ATP 농도는 디젤의 오염이 가중됨에 따라 급속하게 감소하여 유류오염도가 80,000 mg diesel/kg까지 증가하자 4 ng/g으로 크게 감소하였다. 건토기준 10%의 유기질비료를 투입한 결과 석유계총탄화수소의 80일간 최종분해율은 대조시료에 비하여 10% 이상 증가되었고, 특히 $C12{\sim}C20$에 해당하는 n-alkanes의 분해가 증가되었다. 또한 유기질비료를 혼합한 경우가 대조시료에 비하여 약 3배 정도의 ATP 농도증가를 보여주어 6일후 112 ng/g의 ATP 농도를 보여주었고, ATP 농도증가의 형태에 있어서도 지연시간을 나타내지 않고 빠른 시간 내에 급속한 증가를 보여주었다. 석유계총탄화수소의 일평균 감소와 ATP 농도는 약간의 시간차이를 두고 유사한 형태를 보여주었다.

The fluorene-degrading strain Sphingobacterium sp. KM-02 was isolated from PAHs-contaminated soil near a mineimpacted area by selective enrichment techniques. Fluorene added to the Sphingobacterium sp. KM-02 culture as sole carbon source was 78.4% removed within 120 h. A fluorene degradation pathway is tentatively proposed based on identification of the metabolic intermediates 9-fluorenone, 4-hydroxy-9-fluorenone, and 8-hydroxy-3,4-benzocoumarin. Further the ability of Sphingobacterium sp. KM-02 to bioremediate 100 mg/kg fluorene in soil matrix was examined by composting under laboratory conditions. Treatment of microcosm soil with the strain KM-02 for 20 days resulted in a 65.6% reduction in total amounts. These results demonstrate that Sphingobacterium sp. KM-02 could potentially be used in the bioremediation of fluorene from contaminated soil.

The Bacterial community structure and its complexity of the enrichment culture during the isolation and screening of imidacloprid-degrading strain were studied using denaturating gradient gel electrophoresis analysis. The dominant bacteria in the original tea rhizosphere soil were uncultured bacteria, Rhizobium sp., Sinorhizobium, Ochrobactrum sp., Alcaligenes, Bacillus sp., Bacterium, Klebsiella sp., and Ensifer adhaerens. The bacterial community structure was altered extensively and its complexity reduced during the enrichment process, and four culturable bacteria, Ochrobactrum sp., Rhizobium sp., Geobacillus stearothermophilus, and Alcaligenes faecalis, remained in the final enrichment. Only one indigenous strain, BCL-1, with imidacloprid-degrading potential, was isolated from the sixth enrichment culture. This isolate was a gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium and identified as the genus Ochrobactrum based on its morphological, physiological, and biochemical properties and its 16S rRNA gene sequence. The degradation test showed that approximately 67.67% of the imidacloprid (50 mg/l) was degraded within 48 h by strain BCL-1. The optimum conditions for degradation were a pH of 8 and $30^{\circ}C$. The simulation of imidacloprid bioremediation by strain BCL-1 in soil demonstrated that the best performance in situ (tea soil) resulted in the degradation of 92.44% of the imidacloprid (100 mg/g) within 20 days, which was better than those observed in the ex situ simulations that were 64.66% (cabbage soil), 41.15% (potato soil), and 54.15% (tomato soil).
