This study was implemented as a part of the experiment to develop two kinds of soil-based Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) proficiency testing materials (PTMs) for soil analysis. A test was carried out for the check of solubility of the reference material (high purity reagent) using several solvents. Another test was also conducted for the evaluation of homogeneity and stability of two kinds of candidate soil reference materials. The test analysis of BaP in terms of the candidate materials was conducted according to the Standard Soil Analytical Methods by Ministry of Environment. Dissolution of the reference material was shown to vary depending on solvent type and was higher in the order of Dichloromethane > Acetone > Acetone/MeOH (9 : 1) > N-hexane. In addition, the slope on calibration curve for BaP standard solutions was largest on BaP standard solutions prepared with dichloromethane of the tested solvents. Such tendency appeared egually in the commercial BaP standard solution. Therefore, it is thought to be reasonable to use dichloromethane as the solvent in case of the standard stock solution that is used for the measurement of BaP concentration in soil. ISO 13528 and IUPAC protocol were used for verification of homogeneity on the two kinds of soil candidate materials, Both candidate materials were sufficiently homogeneous. Stability assessment of the two candidate materials was made according to ISO Guide 35 and the result showed that both batches did not have any long-term and short term stability issues that might occur during shipping. However, monitoring results of BaP concentration in soil showed that BaP concentration of the two batches measured at 15 days after the sample preparation was reduced by about 24~37% compared with that of the samples measured on 0 day of the sample preparation. Identification was done with several treatments such as irradiation and sterilization etc. The major cause was shown to be irradiation to the samples.

Pot experiments were conducted to assess the applicability of ferric chloride ($FeCl_3$) as a washing agent for laboratory scale in-situ soil washing of paddy soil contaminated with Pb. During the monitoring period for nearly 90 days, the concentrations of Fe and Mn in the soil solution were lower than that of control soil due to lime ($Ca(OH)_2$) amendment for pH recovery. Lime amendment also affected solubility and fractionation of Pb into soil matrix. The result showed that Pb concentrations of soil solution were consistently lower than that of control soil, and the concentration in the exchangeable fraction in washed soil decreased from 13 to 2 mg/kg. There was no significant difference of biomass yield of rice plant in each pots, and Pb contents in rice roots and grains in washed soil decreased to 50 and 78%, respectively, of the control soil. Therefore, $FeCl_3$ could be used as an acceptable in-situ washing agent for agricultural paddy soil if appropriate soil pH management is subsequently practiced.

Biochar, which has high alkalinity, has widely studied for amendment of soil that contaminated with heavy metals. The aim of this study is assessment of amendment for arsenic and heavy metals contaminated acidic agricultural soil using biochar that derived from buffalo weed (A. trifida L. var. trifida). Pot experiments were carried out including analysis of soil solution, contaminants fractionation, soil chemical properties and plant (lettuce) uptake rate. Arsenic and heavy metals concentrations in soil solution showed relatively low in biochar added experiments when compared to the control. In the heavy metals fractionation in soil showed decrease of exchangeable fraction and increase of carbonates fraction; however, arsenic fractionations showed constant. Soil chemical properties indicated that biochar could induce recovery of soil quality for plant growth in terms of soil alkalinity. However, phosphate concentration in biochar added soil decreased due to Ca-P precipitation by exchangeable calcium from biochar. Arsenic and heavy metals uptake rate of plant in the amended experiment decreased to 50% when compared to the control. Therefore biochar derived from buffalo weed can be used as amendment material for agricultural soil contaminated with arsenic and heavy metals. Precipitation of As-Ca and metal-carbonates are major mechanisms for soil amendment using char.

주요 토양 및 지하수 오염물질인 가솔린에 대해 순수한 액상으로 존재할 경우와 오염된 토양으로 존재할 경우 물에 대한 용해거동을 각각 살펴보았다. 특히 휘발에 의한 가솔린 성분조성의 변화가 용출거동에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 가솔린 오염토양을 공기흐름으로 통기시켰을 때 토양 중 용출거동의 변화는 공기 중 휘발농도의 변화양상과 비슷하게 나타나며 그 경향은 두 가지로 요약될 수 있다. 첫째 총량으로서의 가솔린 농도(TPH-GRO)는 휘발이 진행됨에 따라 급격히 감소하다가 75%정도의 무게감소 이후 점차적으로 감소하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 둘째 가솔린 개별성분의 농도는 일반적으로 증가하다가 감소하는 경향을 보이는데 분자량이 높을수록 상대적인 농도증가폭이 크고 최고농도에 도달하는데 많은 시간이 걸렸다. 한가지 특이한 점은 휘발이 진행될수록 공기 중 가솔린 농도가 용출 농도보다 훨씬 빠르게 감소한다는 점이다. 이것은 휘발에 의해 상당량의 가솔린이 제거되었을 경우 잔류가솔린으로 인한 위해성의 초점은 인근 대기오염보다도 지하수 오염에 맞추어져야 함을 시사한다.

The effects of surfactants and concentration of NaOH in surfactant solution on the removal of free fatty acid soil from cotton fabrics were investigated. Cotton fabrics were soiled with palm itic acid which is the most common fatty acid found in natural oily soil and washed in Lauder-ometer with various types of surfactant with or without NaOH. The rate of soil removal was estimated by analyzing palmitic acid contents in fabric before ar d after washing. Analysis of palmitic contents was made by extracting palmitic acid with azeotropic mixture of alcohol-benzene and the extracts were titrated with standard NaOH solution. It was shown that the types of surfactant are important factor in free fatty acid removal and the efficiency increases in the following order: SLS$90\%$ of initial sorption. In relation to the mechanism of detergency, the suspending and emulsifying power of surfactants were also examined. From the results of this experiments, it could be concluded that the soap formation with alkali and the suspending power of surfactant arc significant factors in free fatty acid soil removal, but the emulsifying power of it is neglizible.

This study investigates the effect of particle size on the detergency of particulate soil using an $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ particle as the model. Monodispersed spherical $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ particles were prepared by the hydrothermal aging of an acidic $FeCl_3$ and HCl solution. The $\xi$-potential of PET fiber was measured by the streaming potential method. The potential energy of interaction between the particle and fiber was calculated using the heterocoagulation theory for a sphere-plate model. The $\xi$-potential of PET fiber and potential energy of interaction between particles and fiber increased with a decreasing particle size in a DBS solution. However, in the nonionic surfactant solution, the $\xi$-potential signs of PET fiber and $\alpha-Fe_2O_3$ particles were (-) and (+), respectively; there was no repulsive power between the particles and substrate. The adhesion of particles to the fabric increased with increasing particle size in the anionic surfactant solution and their removal from the fabric increased with a decreasing particle size. The adhesion of particles to the fabric and their removal from the fabric was biphasic with a maximum and minimum at 0.1% concentration of the surfactant solution. In the nonionic surfactant solution the adhesion of particles to fabric and their removal from the fabric were greater than the ones in the anionic surfactant DBS solution.

질소시비량 감량에 따른 수포의 생육과 수량 그리고 토양용액과 토양의 무기성분의 변화 수도중 무기성분 함량 변화를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 질소감량구중 관행의 2/3을 출수전 20일과 10일전에 각각 50%씩 추비한 N4구의 단위면적당 수수와 수량은 관행보다 높았다. 수량증가의 요인은 질소시비량이 적음에도 불구하고 밀식에 의해 관행보다 단위면적당 수수가 많았기 때문이었다. 질소비료의 이용률은 관행구가 38.3%이었고, 1/2 감량구는 51.6~54.7% 범위이었고, 1/3 감량구는 54.1~87.3% 범위이었다. 토양용액 중 $K^+$는 생육기간이 경과함에 따라 계속 감소하였고, $Ca^{2+}$과 $mg^{2+}$는 생육기간이 경과에 따라 점차 증가한 후 생육 후기에는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 토양용액의 P의 농도는 수도가 생장함에 따라 감소하다가 출수 후 증가하였으며 9월 이후 토양온도가 낮아짐에 따라 다시 감소하였다. 전체 수도 생육에 걸쳐 P의 농도는 $0.4mg\;L^{-1}$ 이하이었다. 수도 재배에 의해 $Ca^{2+}$은 용탈이 많았고. $K^+$과 P는 용탈이 적었다. 시험 후 토양중 전체 무기성분함량은 시험전 보다 감소하였고, 수량이 많았던 N4구가 다른 처리구에 비해 전질소, 전인산, 전칼륨, 그리고 유기물 함량이 많았으며, 특히 전질소와 유기물 함량이 수량과 밀접 한 유의성을 보였다. 수도중 무기물 함량은 수량이 많았던 N4구에서 관행보다 높았으며, 질소 인산, 칼륨은 수량과 양의 상관을 보였다. 따라서 전남지방에서 수도재배시 질소질 비료의 감량을 위해서는 재식밀도를 관행의 2배로 하고, 기비는 주지 않고 출수전 20일과 10일전에 관행의 2/3을 중점적으로 시비하는 것이 적절하다고 판단된다.

BACKGROUND: Soil acidification, which is known to be one of the reasons of forest decline, is associated with decreases in exchangeable Ca and increases in Al concentration, leading to low Ca/Al ratio in soil solution. As tree rings are datable archives of environmental changes, Ca/Al ratios of annual growth ring may show decreasing pattern in accordance with the progress of soil acidification. This study was conducted to investigate Ca/Al pattern of Pinus densiflora tree ring in an attempt to test its usefulness as an indicator of historical soil acidification. METHODS AND RESULTS: Three P. densiflora tree disks were collected from P. densiflora forests in Jeonnam province, and soil samples (0-10, 10-20, and 20-30 cm in depth) were also collected from the tree locations. Soils were analyzed for pH and exchangeable Ca and Al concentrations, and Ca/Al was calculated. Annual growth rings formed between 1969 and 2007 were separated and analyzed for Ca/Al. Soil Ca/Al was positively (P<0.01) correlated with soil pH, suggesting that soil acidification decreased Ca while increasing Al availability, lowering Ca/Al in soil solution. The Ca/Al of tree rings also showed a decreasing pattern from 18.2 to 5.5 during the period, and this seemed to reflect historical acidification of the soils. CONCLUSION(s): The relationship between soil pH and Ca/Al and the decreasing pattern of Ca/Al of tree ring suggest that Ca/Al of tree ring needs to be considered as a proxy of the progress of soil acidification in P. densiflora forest in southern Korea.
