해상공사에서 발생하는 부유사는 해수의 탁도를 증가시키고 광량을 감소시켜 해양생물에 악영향을 미치므로 해양환경영향평 가에서 중요한 요소이다. 하지만 평가에 적용되는 인자에 대한 공식적인 자료의 부족과 평가자의 능력에 따라 그 영향이 달리 평가되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해역이용영향평가센터에서 검토한 3년간(2012–2014)의 매립, 준설, 외곽시설물 설치 등 총 58건 사업에 대한 부유사 확산 평가에 대한 실태를 진단하고 개선방안을 제시하였다. 개선방안 제시를 위해 4가지의 평가지표(격자체계의 적정성, 원단위의 적정성, 대표입경 및 침강속도의 적정성)를 적용하였다. 각 항목별 신뢰도에 평균점수 분석결과, 격자체계는 25점, 원단위는 60점, 대표입 경은 34점 그리고 침강속도는 17점으로 평가항목에 대한 개선방안이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 부유사 확산 평가상태에 대 한 진단 및 신뢰도 평가 결과를 활용하여 부유사 확산예측에 대한 개선방안을 제안하였다. 먼저, 부유사 발생원단위 및 대표입경별 침강 속도에 대한 공신력 있는 값이 가이드라인을 통해 제공해야 한다. 그리고 실무에선 신뢰성 향상을 위해 격자체계의 적정성과 결과의 검 증을 철저히 해야 한다.

The sediment makes up the sea floor and plays an important role as a habitats for living things in the sea. However, pollution of coastal sediment due to internal and external factors such as inflow of contaminants from land and self-pollution becoming more serious, the needs for management of sediment that play an important role in ecology, is increasing. In particular, the review and evaluation of the effects of sediment in marine development projects including reclamation and dredging, have significance in terms of proactive protection and management of surrounding ecosystems. This study proposed the improvement measures for marine sediment management standards on the sea area utilization consultation for the development of public water. For the purpose, The evaluation and management standards of domestic and overseas marine sediments were reviewed and compared. The sediment environment guidelines under the Marine Environment Management Act of Korea were reviewed. Accordingly, the cases of Canada and NOAA, which have various evaluation standards consist of comprehensive factors, were analyzed. For analysis of operational cases, the port and fishing port development projects for the last five years (2016-2020) that are considered to have the greatest impact on sediments among the sea area use consultations were also reviewed. Finally, this study suggested that the assessment factors for ecological hazards and potential human risks should be considered in the sediment environmental standards in the sea area utilization consultation system.

해양에서의 이용행위가 최근 사회발전에 따라 점차 대형화, 다양화되고 있으며 이에 따라 해양생태계가 가지는 환경용량을 넘어서 해양생태계의 복원력 및 저항성, 항성상 등이 훼손 또는 저하되고 있다. 이로 인해서 생태계가 가지는 본연의 기능을 발휘하지 못하게 되고 이는 생태계의 서비스와 가치 하락으로 이어진다. 이에 따라 훼손된 생태계를 다시 건강한 생태계로 회복하고자 하는 인식이 증가하고 있으며 그 수단으로써 복원이 관심을 받고 있다. 복원사업이 점차 확대되는 시점에서, 복원사업의 해역이용협의 및 영향평가를 시행함에 있어 발생할 수 있는 다양한 문제점과 앞으로 나아가야 할 방향에 대해서 점검할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 복원과 관련된 용어를 연구논문 및 보고서를 통해서 복원의 개념을 정리하였고 복원사업과 관련된 해역이용협의 검토 상황 및 복 원사업의 현황을 살펴보았다. 또한, 복원사업을 성공적으로 이끌어 갈 수 있도록 해역이용협의서 상의 문제점을 사례조사를 통해서 고 찰하였다. 이를 토대로 복원사업의 해역이용협의 및 영향평가에 있어 개선방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 이는 향후 정책 및 계획 수립 등에 있어 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

최근 3년간 검토된 환경관리해역에서 이루어진 해역이용협의 건수는 총 60건으로 조사되었다. 환경보전해역에서는 지속적으로 감소하였고, 특별관리해역에서는 증가하는 양상을 나타내었다. 환경관리해역의 개별사업유형을 분석한 결과 인공구조물 설치사업이 가장 높은 비율을 차지하였고, 그 외 항만 어항개발, 연안정비 및 해수 인 배수사업유형이 많이 이루어졌다. 환경관리해역에서 국가해양환경정보통합시스템(MEIS) 자료를 활용하여 2006~2017년까지 경년별 수질변화경향을 비교한 결과, COD는 뚜렷한 증감의 변화는 보이지 않았으나 환경보전지역은 다소 증가하였으며, TN과 TP의 농도는 다소 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 특별관리해역인 광양만과 마산만 및 환경보전해역인 가막만에서는 주로 하계에 빈산소수괴가 출현하였다. 이러한 환경관리해역에서의 이용·개발행위가 지속적으로 이루어지고 있으므로, 이에 따른 해양환경부문 환경영향평가(해역이용협의)시에는 충분한 수질변화에 대한 실태분석 및 사업추진에 따른 수질영향과 퇴적물의 오염상태를 철저히 진단해서 오염원관리에 대한 대책이 중점적으로 평가되어야 할 것으로 판단된다. 특히, 각 환경관리해역의 지정 목적에 따른 유지 수질목표를 명확히 설정하여, 오염원 및 연안오염총량관리와 연계하여 오염 부하량 저감대책을 제시하여야 할 것이다.

There has been increasing global interest in the environmental pollution problems produced by fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In order to tackle these issues, new renewable energy such as solar, wind, bio gas, fuel cell and pressure retarded osmosis(PRO) have been developed extensively. Among these energy sources, PRO is one of the salinity gradient power generation methods. In PRO, energy is obtained by the osmotic pressure generated from the concentration difference between high and low concentration solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane. The development for high power density PRO membranes is imperative with the purpose of commercialization. This study investigates development of thin film composite PRO membrane and spiral wound module for high power density. Also, the influence of membrane backing layer on power density was identified, and the characteristic factors of PRO membranes was determined. Different backing layers were used to improve power density. As expected, the PRO membrane with more porous backing layer showed higher power density.

Sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone) (SPAES) random copolymers have been perceived as membrane materials alternative to perfluorinated sulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomers, since they are cheap and chemically tunable when compared with PFSA. Moreover, their relatively low gas permeability, particularly to hydrogen, contributes to reduced thermal decomposition of membrane-electrode assemblies. In spite of their advantages, freestanding SPAES copolymers have critical issues associated with chemical/electrochemical durability as well as interfacial resistance with electrodes. In this study, SPAES-PTFE reinforced membranes are fabricated using consecutive membrane formation protocols, (e.g., SPAES nanodispersion in water-alcohol mixtures, spontaneous pore-filling, and solvent-assisted thermal treatment techniques) and systematically evaluated.

Perfluorinated sulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomers have been widely used for renewable energy generation, including polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs), owing to their excellent resistance to harsh chemicals and good ion-transport properties. PFSA materials experience critical chemical decomposition to radical attacks, and fast hydrogen crossover leading to fairly reduced electrochemical performances, when they are used as membrane materials. Similar chemical degradation also occurs in PEFC electrodes containing PFSA ionomer binders used as both mechanical supporters and proton conductors and shortens PEFC lifetime. In this study, several approaches based on their morphological rearrangement to overcome these economical and technical issues are proposed. They include pore-filling membrane formation, nanodispersion, and their combination.

Perfluorinated sulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomers have been widely used as membranes in the fields of green power generation and electrolysis. In spite of their high ion-conducting properties, it is difficult to apply them in the freestanding membrane state to harsh operation conditions owing to their chemical and electrochemical degradation issues. A promising membrane concept to satisfy this purpose would be “pore-filling membrane” composed of PFSA ionomers and porous PTFE support films. In this study, the porous PTFE support film treated with a cheap hydrophilic polymer is used as a reinforced material. Interestingly, the resulting PFSA-PTFE pore-filling membranes exhibit an extremely high proton conductivity with a fairly reduced ionomer content, which may give a valuable information to design a desirable pore-filling membrane.

본 연구는 PVDF/PDMS 복합막을 제조하여 부탄올을 농축을 위한 투과증발특성에 대해 알아보았다. 또한 복합막의 제조 방법에 따른 투과특성을 알아보기 위해 지지층의 PVDF 농도변화와 활성층의 경화조건에 따라 투과증발 최적막을 선정하였다. 이 막을 사용하여 공급액의 농도, 온도 및 순환 유속을 변화시켜 부탄올의 투과특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 그 결과 공급액의 농도, 온도, 순환 유속이 증가할 경우 부탄올의 플럭스와 투과 농도가 증가함을 확인하였으며 상용막인 GKSS사의 PVDF/POMS 복합막과 비교한 결과 부탄올 투과 플럭스, 투과 농도, 선택도 등 모두 높은 값을 나타내었다.

Analytical methods for odorous butanol compound were developed using canister sampling method and solid adsorbent sampling method. Stability of butanol gas component was evaluated for enhancing accuracy of measurement and to avoid a problem of its poor stability due to its polar character. Quality control method of the analysis was also examined. Gaseous standard gas containing BuOHl and MEK was prepared using canister for evaluation of stability and analytical linearity. BuOH showed a poor stability and poor linearity compared to MEK. However, when the same VOC standard was prepared using adsorbent tube, the stability and linearity of BuOH were much better compared to canister method. Therefore, sampling for the measurement of BuOH in air using adsorbent tube can give better result compared to canister method.

반응표면분석법을 이용하여 홍삼 지근의 볶음 온도와 시간에 따른 추출물의 기능성 성분을 모니터링하고 최적 볶음조건을 예측하였다. 그 결과 가용성 고형분, 총 페놀함량 및 항산화성은 볶음 온도와 시간이 증가함에 따라 그 값이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 산성다당체 함량은 볶음시간보다 볶음온도에 더 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이로써 홍삼 지근의 기능성 관련 성분을 고려한 최적 볶음조건은 볶음온도 와 볶음시간 분으로 예측되었다.

To estimate the residence times of aerosols in air, the activities of 210Pb and 210Po in aerosols were measured at 4 sites in Pusan. All aerosol samples were collected by a high volume air sampler from January to October 1996. The activities 210Pb and 210Po in Pusan were varied from 11.77 to 67.57 dpm/1000㎥ and from 2.63 to 15.91 dpm/1000㎥, respectively. The mean activities were 34.62 dpm/1000㎥ for 210Pb and 8.24 dpm/1000㎥ for 210Po. The highest values of the activities of 210Pb and 210Po were appeared at P3 site and the lowest values at P4 site. During the sampling period, the trends of the activities of 210Po and 210Pb were similar to total suspended particulate matter(TSP) concentrations. The mean residence times of atmospheric aerosols calculated from 210Po/210Pb activity ratio was about 60∼80 days in Pusan. The longest residence time of atmospheric aerosols was in January because of the lack of rainout and washout, but the shortest residence time was in August, largely due to scavenging effect by frequent rains. The activities of 210Po and 210Pb in atmospheric aerosols were different in time and space, which seems that the distribution of 210Po and 210Pb activities and scavenging processes in air may be controlled by the local and meteorological conditions.

Chemical composition of atmospheric aerosols was measured at 4 sites in Pusan. All the samples were collected with a high volume air sampler from January to October 1996, to analyze major ions and heavy metals. Dominant ions of aerosols were SO42- in anion and Na+ in cation. Sulfate, nitrate and ammonium ions in aerosols showed high enrichmentfactor to soil and seawater composition. The concentrations of heavy metals in aerosols was lowest at the site P1 near the coast. The lowest concentrations of major ions and heavy metals mainly appeared in August, probably due to scavenging by frequent rains. Especially, the concentrations of total suspended particulate matter(TSP) and heavy metals in aerosols showed good correlations in Pusan. Based on crustal Al, enrichment factors for some metals(Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd) in aerosols were significantly greater than unity, and the order was Cd > Pb > Zn > Cu. This evidence suggests that Cd and Pb are derived predominantly from non-crustal sources.

The concentrations and wet deposition flux into the sea of heavy metals of precipitation in Pusan area were measured and estimated. The samples were collected by polyethylene bottle(30ℓ) from January to November in 1996, and heavy metals were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrometer. The concentration order of heavy metals was Al >Fe >Zn >Pb >Mn >Cu >Ni >Cd >Co, and they were high at inland sites and low at coastal sites. The enrichment factors for some metals(Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd), based on crustal Al, were significantly greater than unity, and the order was Cd > Pb > Zn > Cu. This evidence suggests Cd and Pb are derived predominantly from non-crustal sources. Al, Fe and Mn contents showed good correlation with each other. Therefore this enrichment factor indicates similar geochemical behavior of these elements. The annual wet depositional flux(㎎/㎡/yr) from P1 site was as follows: Al (121.1), Fe,(177.2), Zn(12.9), Mn(6.19), Pb(14.4), Cu(0.64), Ni(1.03), Cd(1.02) and Co(1.01).
