In this study, in order to analyze the water purification efficiency according to the influent water conditions of artificial wetlands, the purification efficiency was compared at two points where sewage treatment water flows in and one point where good effluent flows in. As a result of reviewing the results of the analysis of influent and effluent and the removal efficiency, the T-N and T-P removal efficiency was calculated at 54.7% and 77.4%, respectively, for the two points where sewage treatment water was treated, the treatment efficiency of SS 90.8%, BOD 51.1%, TOC 30.6%, T-N 38.8%, T-P 55.3% was shown. As a result, the efficiency of removing pollutants in the artificial wetland was found to be proportional to the concentration of influent water, and in order to create an efficient artificial wetland, it is judged that thorough review and management at the design stage are necessary considering that the removal efficiency of high-concentration contaminated water was high.

A sediment control dam is an artificial structure built to prolong sedimentation in the main dam by reducing the inflow of suspended solids. These dams can affect changes in dissolved organic matter (DOM) in the water body by changing the river flow regime. The main DOM component for Yeongju Dam sediment control of the Naeseongcheon River was analyzed through 3D excitation-emission matrix (EEM) and parallel factor (PARAFAC) analyses. As a result, four humic-like components (C1~C3, C5), and three proteins, tryptophan-like components (C2, C6~C7) were detected. Among DOM components, humic-like components (autochthonous: C1, allochthonous: C2~C3) were found to be dominant during the sampling period. The total amount of DOM components and the composition ratio of each component did not show a difference for each depth according to the amount of available light (100%, 12%, and 1%). Throughout the study period, the allochthonous organic matter was continuously decomposing and converting into autochthonous organic matter; the DOM indices (fluorescence index, humification index, and freshness index) indicated the dominance of autochthonous organic matter in the river. Considering the relative abundance of cyanobacteria and that the number of bacteria cells and rotifers increased as autochthonous organic matter increased, it was suggested that the algal bloom and consequent activation of the microbial food web was affected by the composition of DOM in the water body. Research on DOM characteristics is important not only for water quality management but also for understanding the cycling of matter through microbial food web activity.

In this study, we estimated the applicability of length-weight relationship-based biomass calculations by comparison of body length of genus Polyarthra collected from different habitats. Through the comparison, we also tested availability of representative species-specific biomass value of Polyarthra which is often used without length measurement. Polyarthra samples were collected from rivers (Han River and Nakdong River) and reservoir (Paldang Reservoir), and the body length was measured for statistical comparison among habitats and biomass calculations using different equations suggested previously. According to the results, the body length of Polyarthra spp. was significantly different among sampling sites, and the necessity of body length measurement for rotifer species in each situation has been suggested rather than using the representative biomass values which is fixed without considering time and space. Comparison of suggested biomass calculations based on our measured Polyarthra body length, the equation suggested by McCauley showed more reasonable range of biomass values than that suggested by EPA. In addition, in order to calculate more accurate biomass, it is necessary to measure the body length of rotifers, at least more than 44 individuals to reduce error probability to less than 5% with 99% probability. However, since direct measurement of rotifers biomass is limited, it is considered that further analyses are required for more precise application of rotifer biomass of which has high variability due to complex morphologies and species-specific cyclomorphosis often induced by biotic and abiotic factors in the habitats.

세계적으로 꿀벌의 감소는 양봉산업에 대한 직접적인 피해와 간접적으로는 방화활동에 의존하는 식물들이 영향을 받아 농업적, 경제적으로 큰 손실을 초래한다. 이런 꿀벌 감소의 원인중 하나인 노제마병은 그 자체에 의한 피해와 더불어 다른 병원체에 대한 꿀벌의 감수성을 높여 그 피해를 가증시킨다. 국내 농가의 경우 80% 이상의 봉군이 노제마에 감염된 것으로 보고되어 있고, 현재 전 세계적으로 항생제 일종인 퓨마기린(상품명: Fumagillin - B)만이 유일한 방제제로 등록되어 있으나 그 효과는 미진한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 곤충병원성 곰팡이 342개 균주의 대사산물을 이용하여 스크리닝 방법으로 노제마의 포자 발아를 억제하는 균주의 항균활성을 평가하였고, 선발된 균주를 이용하여 서양종 꿀벌(Apis mellifera)에 대한 안전성 평가와 생물검정을 통해 꿀벌 노제마병의 생물학적 방제제로서 곤충병원성 곰팡이 대사산물의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다. 선발된 균주들은 Nosema ceranae에 대하여 증식억제 효과를 가지고 있으며, 꿀벌 노제마병의 생물학적 방제에 이용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of particle size of sediment on adsorption of fluoride. Particle size is classified as sand, silt and clay. Adsorption equilibrium time, adsorption isotherms and the effect of pH were investigated through batch tests. The pHpzc of sand, silt, clay was respectively 6, 8, 4.5 and AEC (anion exchange capacity) was highest in silt, respectively 0.0095, 0.0224, 0.014 meq g-1. Adsorption of fluoride on the sediment was in equilibrium within 300 minutes from all particle size. The experimental data of isotherms at various pH were well explained by Freundlich equation. As the experimental results of the effect of pH, the adsorption efficiency of sand and silt were reduced after the pHpzc. However, the adsorption efficiency of clay was maintained after the pHpzc, and decreased rapidly higher than pH 12.

본 연구는 강우시 불투수성 지역에서 비점오염원 유출 특성을 분석하기 위하여 수행되었다. 불투수성 지역의 강 우사상 특성은 강우강도에 대한 영향을 많이 받는 것으 로 나타났으며, 강우강도가 크게 작용하면, 초기강우 현 상이 잘 일어나는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 선행무강우일수 에 의해서 비점오염물질의 농도차가 큰 것으로 나타나, 이에 대한 대책 마련이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 불투수 성 지역의 비점오염원 유출 경향을 보면, 강우초기 유출 유량에 포함되어 유출되는 오염물질의 농도가 상대적으 로 매우 높게 나타났고, 일정 시간 경과 후에는 지속되는 강우에도 불구하고 오염물질의 농도는 증가하지 않고 낮 은 농도로 안정적인 유출경향을 나타내었다. 이러한 이유 는 건기 시 도로 표면에 집적되어 있던 오염물질들이 강 우시 초기에 유출되어 비점오염물질의 농도가 높게 나타 나는 것으로 나타났다. 불투수성 지역에서 발생하는 비점 오염물질 항목별 단위면적당 오염부하량은 매우 높은 값 을 나타내고 있는데, 이는 불투수성 지역의 특성상 아스 팔트로 되어 있는 도로 및 주차장, 교량 등이 있는 불투 수면이 대부분의 토양상부를 덮고 있기 때문에 강우시 불 투수성 지역 내 모니터링 지점에서 강우가 집중되어 유 출되기 때문에 비점오염물질의 유출이 증가하기 때문에 오염부하량이 증가한 것으로 판단된다. 강우시 초기세척 효과는 TSS의 경우, Event 1, Event 2에서 초기세척효과 가 매우 잘 관찰되었으며, TSS¤CODMn¤T-P 순으로 뚜 렷하게 나타나는 것으로 조사되었다. TSS와 CODMn가 가 장 민감하게 강우에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 본 연구 결과를 통해 분석된 결과를 토대로 비점오염원 유출특성에 대한 다양한 데이터베이스를 구축하여 향후 비점오염원을 효율적으로 관리하는데 자료로 활용 가능 할 것으로 판단된다. 또한 비점오염원을 체계적으로 관리 하여 수계환경의 오염부하를 줄일 수 있는 방안을 강구 해야 할 것으로 사료된다.
