Abstract

In this study, the organic carbon normalized-sorption coefficients (Koc) for the binding affinity of phenanthrene (PHE) to 16 different soil humic and fulvic acids of various origins were determined by fluorescence quenching. The humic and fulvic acids used in this study were isolated from 6 different domestic soils including Mt. Hanla soil, IHSS standard soil and peat as well as Aldrich humic acid and characterized by elemental composition, ultraviolet absorption at 254 nm, composition of main structural fragments determined by CPMAS $^{13}$C NMR. The Koc values($\times$10$^4$, L/kg C) for each of HA and FA samples were in the range of 1.48$\sim$8.65 and higher in HA compared to that of FA(3.13$\sim$8.65 vs 1.48$\sim$2.48) in the experimental condition([PHE]/[HS] = 0.02$\sim$0.2(mg/L)/(mg-OC/L), pH 6). The correlation study between the structural descriptors of humic and fulvic acids and log Koc values of phenanthrene, show that the magnitude of Koc values positively correlated with the UV$_{254}$ absorptivity([ABS]$_{254}$) and two $^{13}$C NMR descriptors (C$_{Ar-H,C}$, $\sum$C$_{Ar}$/$\sum$C$_{Alk}$), while negatively correlated with the independent descriptors of the(N+O)/C atomic ratios and $^{13}$C NMR descriptors (I$_{C-O}$/I$_{C-H,C}$). These results confirmed that the binding affinity for the hydrophobic organic compound, phenanthrene are significantly influenced by the polarity and aromaticity of soil humc and fulvic acids.

본 연구에서는 다양한 토양 휴믹산(HA) 및 풀빅산(FA)을 대상으로 형광소광법을 이용한 페난트린(PHE)과의 유기탄소 표준화 분배계수(Koc)를 도출하고, 각 휴믹물질의 화학적 및 분광학적 물질특성과 PHE에 대한 Koc와의 상관성을 조사하였다. 휴믹물질은 한라산 토양을 포함한 국내 5개 지역의 토양과 국제휴믹학회(IHSS) 표준토양 및 이탄에서 추출한 HA와 FA 그리고 Aldrich사에서 구입한 HA 등 총 16종을 사용하였다. HA와 FA의 물질특성은 원소성분비와 254 nm에서의 UV 흡광도 및 $^{13}$C NMR을 이용한 탄소형태별 분포 등을 조사하였다. 본 실험조건([PHE]/[HS] = 0.02$\sim$0.2(mg/L)/(mg-OC/L), pH 6)에서의 토양 휴믹물질의 Koc 값 ($\times$10$^4$, L/kg C)은 1.48$\sim$8.65의 범위이었으며, HA가 FA에 대하여 높게 나타났다(3.13$\sim$8.65 vs 1.48$\sim$2.48). log Koc 값과 물질특성과의 상관성 분석 결과, Koc값은 분자극성도((O+N)/C) 및 산소-포함 탄소 함량비(I$_{C-O}$/I$_{C-H,C}$) 등과는 강한 음(-)의 상관성을 보였으며, 254 nm에서의 UV 흡광도([ABS]$_{254}$)와 방향족탄소함량(C$_{Ar-H,C}$, $\sum$C$_{Ar}$/$\sum$C$_{Alk}$) 등과는 강한 양(+)의 상관성을 보였다. 이로부터 페난트린과 같은 소수성유기화합물과의 결합능력은 휴믹물질의 분자극성도가 낮을수록 그리고 분자의 불포화도와 방향족성이 높을수록 증가함을 확인하였다.
