우리나라는 폐기물의 유해성을 판정하기 위한 규제항목 및 시험방법이 환경 선진국에 비해 부족한 실정이다. 새로운 국제 환경규제에 대응하고 지정폐기물 관리 선진화를 위해 독성 등을 고려한 유해물질의 규제항목 조정과 단계적 확대방안 마련이 필요하다. 또한 규제 제안항목 확대에 따른 환경변화의 비용, 가치를 수치화하고 지정폐기물 발생량 예측, 산업체의 경제적 효과 등에 대한 평가를 함으로써 업체에 미치는 영향을 최소화할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 선진국의 국제협약 및 지정폐기물 관리 현황을 비교･조사하고 지난 6년간 국내 폐기물의 배출실태조사를 통해 용출 및 함량기준치를 초과하는 항목에 대한 지정폐기물 발생량을 추정하였다. 또한 항목 확대에 따른 산업체의 경제적 영향을 파악하기 위해 사회적 비용을 산정하였으며, 규제 제안 항목 확대시 기본 고려사항(7가지)을 근거로 신규 규제 제안항목 확대를 위한 단계적 항목 확대방안을 제시하고자 수행하였다. 신규 규제 제안물질 확대에 따른 지정폐기물 발생량을 산정하기 위하여 신규 규제물질 중 우선 고려대상 항목인 불소, 니켈, 아연의 용출 기준을 초과하는 폐기물의 발생량을 산정한 결과 F, Ni, Zn 3항목의 용출 규제 제안항목 확대시 추가로 발생되는 폐기물은 분진, 폐수처리오니 등이며 폐기물은 각각 2,813톤, 134톤, 86,425(톤/년)이 발생되는 것으로 예측되었다. 신규 규제물질 8항목(F, Ni, Zn, Be, Sb, Se, Ba, V)의 함량에 대한 폐기물 발생량을 산정한 결과 약 464만 4천(톤/년)이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 대부분 열처리공정(10코드)에서 함량기준을 초과하는 것으로 나타났으며 정유, 철강, 주물공장에서 발생된 폐기물이 전체 폐기물량의 50 % 이상 차지하는 것으로 조사되었다. F, Ni, Zn을 우선 고려한 분석 및 처리 비용은 약 102억의 추가 비용이 발생하며 Be, Sb, Se, Ba, V의 추가 비용의 1.9배 정도 많은 것으로 조사되었다. 기존 규제 제안물질 7항목(Pb, Cd, Cu, As, Hg, Cr6+, CN)의 함량 기준이 초과되는 폐기물은 공통적으로 분진이 포함되며, 기존의 규제 물질에 대하여 함량 규제 기준 설정시 예상되는 분석과 추가 처리비용은 약 3,915.7 억원으로 나타났다. 신규 규제 제안물질의 항목 확대시 국제협약 관리대상 물질, 국내･외 관리물질, 국내 토양환경기준, 오염사고 사례, 재활용제품 관리 규제물질, 시험방법, 독성 등 7가지 기본 원칙을 고려하여 신규 8항목(F, Ni, Zn, Be, Sb, Se, Ba, V)의 단계적 확대 방안을 마련하여 제시하였다. 용출과 함량에 대한 규제 항목은 3단계로 나누어 추진 방안을 제시하였으며 1단계로 F, Ni, Zn의 용출 기준을 먼저 적용하는 것을 제안하였으며 시행 시기는 국내 여건을 고려하여 조정이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

순환자원으로부터 발생하는 리튬이온전지는 원광보다 높은 순도의 Co, Mn, Ni, Li과 같은 유가금속을 함유하고 있기 때문에 이로부터 유가금속을 회수하는 일은 경제적인 관점에서 매우 중요하다. 또한 핸드폰, 노트북, 캠코더와 같은 다양한 전자 장비의 전원으로 널리 쓰이기 때문에 리튬이온전지 사용의 증가는 폐기물의 발생의 증가를 의미하며 중금속 및 유해한 전해액을 함유하고 있어 환경적인 관점에서도 상당히 중요하다. 리튬이온전지 내 유가금속을 회수하는 습식법에 의한 일반적인 방법은 망간을 우선적으로 회수한 후 코발트 그리고 니켈을 회수한다. 이는 상대적으로 고가의 코발트와 니켈을 회수하기 위해 복잡한 공정을 초래한다. 따라서 현 연구는 혼합추출제에 의해 코발트와 니켈을 망간과 리튬으로부터 우선적으로 회수하는 기초 연구를 수행하였다.

A comprehensive fractionation technique was applied to a set of water samples obtained along drinking water treatment process with ozonation and biological activated carbon (BAC) process to obtain detailed profiles of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and to evaluate the haloacetic acid (HAA) formation potentials of these DOM fractions. The results indicated that coagulation-sedimentation-sand filtration treatment showed limited ability to remove hydrophilic fraction (28%), while removal of hydrophobic and transphilic fraction were 57% and 40%, respectively. And ozonation and BAC treatment showed limited ability to remove hydrophobic fractions (6%), while removal of hydrophilic and transphilic fractions were 25% and 18%. The haloacetic acid formation potential (HAAFP)/dissolved organic carbon (DOC) of hydrophilic fraction was the highest along the treatment train and HAAFP/DOC of hydrophilic fraction was higher than hydrophobic and transphilic fraction as 23% 30%, because of better removal for hydrophobic fraction both in concentration and reactivity.

Odor control technology include absorption, adsorption, incineration and biological treatments. But, most of processes have some problems such as secondary organic acids discharge at the final odor treatment facility. In order to solve the problems for effective treatment of organic acids in odor, it is necessary to develop a new type advanced odor control technology. Some of the technology are plasma only process and plasma hybrid process as key process of the advanced technology. In this study, odor removal performance was compared DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharge)plasma process with PCHP(plasma catalysis hybrid process) by gaseous ammonia, formaldehyde and acetic acid. Plasma only process by acetic acid obtained higher treatment efficiency above 90%, and PCHP reached its efficiency up to 96%. Acetic acid is relatively easy pollutant to control its concentration other than sulfur and nitrogen odor compounds, because it has tendency to react with water quickly. To test of the performance of DBD plasma process by applied voltage, the tests were conducted to find the dependence of experimental conditions of the applied voltage at 13 kV and 15 kV separately. With an applied voltage at 15 kV, the treatment efficiency was achieved to more higher than 13 kV from 83% to 99% on ammonia, formaldehyde and acetic acid. It seems to the odor treatment efficiency depends on the applied voltage, temperature, humidity and chemical bonding of odors.

In vitro 반추위 발효실험에 세신 및 발효 세신 추출물을 적용한 결과, 휘발성 지방산 생성량 대비 반추위 메탄 저감효과가 나타났다. 특히 반추위 미생물 활력 및 사료이용 효율을 대표할 수 있는 휘발성 지방산 생성효율에 대한 부정적 효과 없이, 오히려 휘발성지방산 생성효율을 향상시키면서 반추위 메탄 저감효과를 가져올 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Seven tetracycline classes of antibiotics were treated using ultraviolet (UV) and UV/H2O2 oxidation. Two different UV lamps were used for the UV and UV/H2O2 oxidation. The performance of the UV oxidation was different depending on the lamp type. The medium pressure lamp showed better performance than the low pressure lamp. Combining the low pressure lamp with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) improved the removal performance substantially. The by-products formation of tetracycline by UV and UV/H2O2 were investigated. The protonated form ([1 + H]+) of tetracycline was m/z 445, reacted to yield almost exclusively two oxidation by-products by UV and UV/H2O2 oxidation. Their protonated forms of by-products were m/z 461 and m/z 477. The structures of tetracycline’s by-products in UV and UV/H2O2 system were similar.

This study was investigated twenty two hazardous chemicals compounds for effluents of nine sewage treatment plants (STPs) and one waste water treatment plant (WWTP) in the Nakdong Ri-ver Basin. They are eleven phthalates(DMP, DEP, DIBP, DBP, BEEP, DNPP, DHP, DCP, DEHP, DNOP, Dinonyl phthalate, seven aliphatic hydrocarbons(n-Tridecane, n-Tetradecane, n-Pentadecan-e, n-Hexadecane, n-Heptadecane, n-Octadecane, n-Nonadecane, Isoquinoline, 2-Chloropyridine, 2-N-itrophenol, and Benzophenone.

When the substances were calculated the average concentration at 10 points, the maximum average detection concentration was investigated at the Dalseocheon STP.

In this study we followed biofilm formation and development in a granular activated carbon (GAC) filter on pilot-scale during the 12 months of operation. GAC particles and water samples were sampled from four different depths (-5, -25, -50 and –90 cm from surface of GAC bed) and attached biomass were measured with adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) analysis and heterotrophic plate count (HPC) method. The attached biomass accumulated rapidly on the GAC particles of top layer throughout all levels in the filter during the 160 days (BV 23,000) of operation and maintained a steady-state afterward. During steady-state, biomass (ATP and HPC) concentrations of top layer in the BAC filer were 2.1 μg·ATP/g·GAC and 3.3×108 cells/g·GAC, and 85%, 83% and 99% of the influent total biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOCtotal), BDOCslow and BDOCrapid were removed, respectively. During steady-state process, biomass (ATP and HPC) concentrations of middle layer (-50 cm) and bottom layer (-90 cm) in the BAC filter were increased consistently. Biofilm development (growth rate) proceed highest rate in the top layer of filter (μATP = 0.73 day-1; μHPC = 1,74 day-1) and 78%∼87% slower in the bottom layer (μATP = 0.14 day-1; μHPC = 0.34 day-1). This study shows that the combination of different analytical methods allows detailed quantification of the microbiological activity in drinking water biofilter.

시중에 유통 중인 산화형 염모제 28건을 대상으로 접촉성피부염 유발 성분 함량 조사를 수행하여, 관련 분야에 기초자료를 제공하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 접촉성피부염을 유발하는 물질로 산화염료 10종(p-phe-nylenediamine, toluene-2,5-diamine, m-phenylenediamine, nitro-p-phenylenediamine, p-amino-phenol, m-aminophenol, o-aminophenol, p-methylaminophenol, N,Nˊ-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-p-phenyl-enediamine sulfate, 2-methyl-5-hydroxyethylaminophenol)과 중금속 4종(니켈; Ni, 크롬; Cr, 코발트; Co, 구리; Cu)을 선정하였다. 10종의 접촉성피부염 유발 산화염료의 함량조사를 위하여 헥산-2% 아황산나트륨을 이용하여 빠르고 간단하게 시료전처리를 하였고, 초고성능액체크로마토그래피를 이용하여 분석시간이 12 min으로 짧은 동시분석조건을 확립하였다. 분석 결과 10종의 산화염료 성분은 제품에 표기된 성분이 모두 확인되었고, 각 성분의 농도는 의약품등 표준제조규정에 제시된 사용할 수 있는 농도상한 이하로 나타났다(식품의약품안전처 고시 제2013-228호). 또한, 4종의 중금속성분을 확인하기 위하여 microwave를 이용하여 시료를 분해하였고, 유도결합플라즈마분광계를 이용하여 정량 분석하였다. 각 제품에서 중금속별 검출량은 Ni 0.572 μg/g, Cr 3.161 μg/g, Co 2.029 μg/g, Cu 0.420 μg/g이었다. 염모제의 성상별 중금속 농도를 비교한 결과 분말타입(헤나) 염모제의 평균 중금속 농도는 Ni 1.800 μg/g, Cr 10.127 μg/g, Co 7.082 μg/g, Cu 1.451 μg/g로 거품타입이나 크림타입 보다 높았다. 염모제를 흑색, 흑갈색, 갈색, 짙은 갈색, 옅은 갈색, 붉은 갈색의 6개 색상으로 구분하여 분석한 결과, 갈색의 경우 Co 농도가 가장 높고 나머지 색상에서는 모두 Cr의 농도가 높은 것을 알 수 있었다.

Seasonal and stational variation of SS and COD were investigated from February 2008 to December 2010 and the relationship between them was discussed. During three years monitoring, SS decreased significantly (46% decline) possibly due to the increase of precipitation and thereby resulting salinity drop. COD on average was the highest in 2009. SS was the highest in autumn and the lowest in winter, and over 72% of SS was FSS. While SS is high in the upper sampling stations of the bay with shallow water, COD values do not show any relationship to the geomorphological characteristics. CODins, which was defined as COD after filtration, ranged 56%(winter) ~ 44.6%(summer) and showed no correlation with SS. It indicates that high SS concentration is not necessarily related to the high CODins. The seasonal CODins/SS data, which can be interpreted as COD density in SS, shows that SS in winter contains the dense COD materials compared to the other seasons.

This study investigated the prospective increase in the amount of hazardous substances in packing containers. Thestudy's aim was to analyse phthalates, which are regulated for use in food containers in the EU, as well as four heavymetals (Pb, Cd, Hg, and Cr6+) regulated domestically and abroad. Furthermore, we endeavored to confirm the need foradditional regulations for packaging material by analysing PBDEs (Polybrominated diphenyl ethers), a brominated flameretardant that has recently become an issue because of its wide use in plastic packaging. The concentration of the heavymetal, namely Pb, Cd, Hg and Cr6+ in packaging material samples were in ranged from ND to 7.2mg/kg, ND to 0.47mg/kg, ND to 0.07mg/kg, and ND to 5.01mg/kg, respectively. With total concentration of the four heavy metals (ΣPb+Cd+Hg+Cr6+) ranging from ND to 9.14mg/kg, all samples were below the standard threshold (Σ 100mg/kg). Theconcentration of phthalates in packaging samples was less than the standard of all foreign nations of 0.1% (1,000mg/kg). In particular, DEHP, DEHA, and DBP were detected higher in smart phone cases than others; other materials werefound to be at similar levels. The concentration of PBDEs in packaging material samples was detected in the range ofND to 24.2mg/kg, thereby not exceeding the standard of WEEE and RoHS of 0.1% (1,000mg/kg) for electrical appliancesand electronics.

This paper presents the estimation of actual recyclable amounts and the evaluation of waste oil recycling processes atrecycling facilities using material flow analysis (MFA). The estimation of actual recycling rates through the processes ofwaste lubricating oils is a very important subject not only in the point of view oil recycling efficiency by energy conversionprocesses but also in the perspective of the recycling technology level. In this study, the recycling processes and recyclingrates of waste lubricating oil recycling facilities were evaluated by using a MFA approach, a total of 10 site visits anda total of 30 site questionnaires in Korea. The MFA methodology based on mass balance approach applied to identifythe inputs and outputs of waste oils during the recycling processes at waste oil recycling facilities. It is necessary todetermine the composition and flows of the input materials to be recycled and foreign substances in a waste recyclingfacility. A complete understanding of the waste flows in the processes along with the site visit and data surveys for therecycling facilities was required to develop a material flow for the processes and determine the process yield by differenttreatment methods (chemical distillation, vacuum distillation and high temperature pyrolysis). The results show that onaverage the process yields for chemical distillation, vacuum distillation, and high temperature pyrolysis were 89.9±7.7%,77.9±16.1%, and 57.9±9.3%, respectively. During the chemical distillation method, water in waste oils was a majorfraction (>50%), while the vacuum distillation method resulted oil large amounts of oil sludge produced during therecycling process. The process yields for different treatment methods depended upon several factors including the qualityof incoming waste oils, the type and operating conditions of recycling processes that are applied to. Based on the materialflow analysis in this study, the actual recycled amount of waste oil was estimated to be approximately 260,809 ton in 2011.

Removal efficiency of seven tetracycline antibiotic compounds showed 54%∼97% by GAC adsorption process (EBCT: 5∼30 min). The orders of removal efficiency by GAC adsorption were tetracycline, demeclocycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, doxytetracycline, meclocycline and minocycline. Removal efficiencies of seven tetracycline antibiotic compounds showed 1%∼61% by anthracite biofiltration process (EBCT: 5∼30 min). The highest biodegradable tetracycline antibiotic compound was minocycline, and the worst biodegradable tetracycline antibiotic compounds were oxytetracycline and demeclocycline.

There are many stringent environmental regulations on the management of waste electrical and electronic equipments(WEEE) in most developed countries. WEEE directive aims at increasing collection and recycling rate of WEEE whereas,while the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances (RoHS) aims at restricting hazardous materials duringthe production of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). TV housing rear covers consist of small portion of brominatedflame retardants (BFRs). Improper management and disposal of such waste can pose impacts on the environment andhuman health. In Korea, there are very few available statistical data regarding BFRs levels in TVs housing rear covers.In order to provide additional measures related to management of BFRs, there is a need for a quantitative material flowstudy on the amount of BFR found in TVs. This can be achieved by the aid of material flow analysis of the TV setsand by studying the Deca-BDE components present in the TV housing read covers. In this study, the relevant data werecollected from the statistical reports and through field site visits to the WEEE recycling facilities with surveys. Staticand dynamic material flow analysis (MFA) was conducted to determine material flow of BFRs (Deca-BDE) in themanagement of waste TVs. According to this study, in 2011, households in Korea use 73,821ton of TV sets of which23,592ton of waste TV sets were collected and recycled by municipalities and producers. Extended ProducerResponsibility (EPR) played a major role in recycling of WEEE. In this study, it was predicted that Deca-BDE in usestage would reach down to 51.73ton by 2016. In addition, the amount of Deca-BDE present at the disposal and recyclingstage is estimated to be approximately 2.45ton by 2018.

본 연구는 남부지역에서 주요 콩 품종의 파종기 이동이 isoflavone 등 생리활성물질에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 전남 나주(위도 35° 04'N, 경도 126° 54'E)에서 2008년부터 2010년까지 3년간 수행되었다. 여름형콩 품종인 새올콩과 다원콩, 가을형콩 품종인 태광콩, 풍산나물콩 및 청자3호를 이용하여 파종기를 5월 15일, 5월 30일, 6월 15일, 6월 30일, 7월 15일에 실시하였으며, 주요 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. Daidzein 함량은 모든 시험품종에서 genistein과 total isoflavone 함량은 청자3호를 제외한 시험품종에서 파종이 늦어질수록 증가하는 경향이었다. 반면에 glycitein 함량은 다원콩을 제외한 시험품종에서 파종기간 유의차가 없었다. 2. Cyanidin-3-glucoside(C3G) 함량은 다원콩과 청자3호, delphinidin-3-glucoside(D3G)와 total anthocyanin 함량은 다원콩에서만 파종이 늦어질수록 유의하게 증가하였다. 그러나 pelargonidin-3-glucoside(Pg3G)와 petunidin-3-glucoside(Pt3G) 함량은 파종기간 유의차가 없었다. 3. 청자3호의 lutein 함량은 파종기에 따라 2.7～3.0 μg/g로 유의차가 없었고, chlorophyll 함량은 파종이 늦어짐에 따라 증가하여 6월 30일과 7월 15일 파종에서 유의하게 많았다. 4. 조지방 함량은 태광콩과 청자3호는 조기에 파종할 때 많았고 기타 시험품종은 파종기간 유의차가 없었다. Palmitic acid 조성비는 대부분 시험품종에서 파종기의 영향을 받지 않았다. Stearic acid 조성비는 새올콩, 다원콩, 청자3호에서 파종이 늦을수록 증가하였다. Oleic acid, linoleic acid 조성비는 새올콩에서만 파종기가 빠를수록 유의하게 높았다. Linolenic acid 조성비는 대부분 시험품종에서는 파종이 늦을수록 유의하게 증가하였다. 5. 파종기 이동에 따른 탄수화물과 조단백질 함량은 대부분 시험품종에서 유의차가 없었다. 그러나 새올콩은 조기에 파종할수록, 다원콩은 만기에 파종할수록 조단백질 함량이 많은 경향이었다.

비점오염은 점오염과 달리 불특정 배출경로를 가지며 유출량의 예측 및 정량화가 어렵다. 또한 비점오염물질이 수계로 유입 될 경우 수질의 악화를 초래한다. 이에 정부는 비점오염원을 관리하고자 비점오염저감시설 개발, 연구 및 설치를 지속적으로 시행하고 있다. 하지만 기존 비점오염저감시설의 경우 충분한 자료를 토대로 설치되지 않아 추가적인 연구 및 보완이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 식생수로에서 강우 시 발생되는 부유물질 및 유기물 저감효율을 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 연구방법으로는 대상지역에서의 강우 모니터링을 통해 비점오염저감시설의 자연형 장치인 식생수로에서의 EMC를 통계분석하고 ER 방법 및 SOL 방법을 이용하여 오염물질 저감효율을 산정하였다. EMC 결과 값은 TSS는 유입 27.62 ∼ 98.08mg/L, 유출 13.96 ∼ 220.12mg/L, COD는 유입 13.61mg/L ∼ 31.83mg/L, 유출 5.69 ∼ 11.34mg/L, BOD는 유입 2.58 ∼ 11.70mg/L, 유출 0.59 ∼ 6.65mg/L의 범위를 보였다. 저감효율 산정 값은 ER 방법과 SOL 방법에 대해 각각 TSS는 49%, 83% COD는 72%, 82% BOD는 71%, 76%로 나타났다. 상대적으로 낮은 유출부의 EMC 범위와 평균 70% 이상의 저감효율 산정 값을 통해 식생수로가 강우 시 발생되는 오염물질에 대해 높은 저감효과를 가진다고 판단된다.
