Abstract

The impervious surface rate increased by urbanization causes various problems on the environment such as water cycle distortion, heat island effect, and non-point pollutant discharges. The Low Impact Development (LID) techniques are significantly considered as an important tool for stormwater management in urban areas and development projects. The main mechanisms of LID technologies are hydrological and environmental pollution reduction among soils, media, microorganisms, and plants. Especially, the media provides important functions on permeability and retention rate of stormwater runoff in LID facilities. Therefore, this research was performed to assess the pollutant removal efficiency for different types of media such as zeolite, wood chip, bottom ash, and bio-ceramic. All media show high pollutant removal efficiency of more than 60% for particulate materials and heavy metals. Double layered media is more effective in reducing heavy metals by providing diverse sizes of micro-pores and macro-pores compared to the single layered media. The results recommend the use of different sizes of media application is more cost-effective in LID than a single size of media. Furthermore, soluble proportion of total heavy metal in the stormwater is an important component in proper media selection and arrangement.

도시화는 불투수면의 증가를 야기 시켜 물순환 왜곡, 도시열섬효과, 비점오염물질 유출 등의 다양한 문제를 유발한다. 이러한 환경적 영향을 저감하기 위하여 도시지역과 같은 개발 사업에서는 저영향개발(Low Impact Development, LID) 기법이 중요한 대안으로 제시되고 있다. LID 기술의 주요 기작은 토양, 여재, 미생물과 식물 상호간의 수문학적 및 환경학적 기능이 포함되며, 이 중에서 여재는 LID 시설에서의 토양 내 투수율과 저류율 확보에 있어 중요한 구성요소이다. 따라서 본 연구는 LID 시설에 다양하게 활용되고 있는 제올라이트(Zeolite), 우드칩(Woodchip), 바텀애쉬(Bottom ash), 바이오세라믹(Bioceramic) 등의 여재를 단층 또는 복층으로 구성하여 강우유출수내 오염물질 저감 효율을 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. 실험에 사용된 모든 여재는 강우유출수에 포함된 입자상 물질과 중금속을 60% 이상 제거하는 것으로 나타났으며 여재층을 복층구조로 배치할 경우에 여재 입자간의 다양한 크기의 공극과 여재 내의 미세공극(micro-pores)을 충분히 확보할 수 있기에 입자상물질 및 중금속 저감에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유입수 내의 효과적인 중금속의 저감을 위해서는 중금속의 입자 및 용존성 함량비율에 따른 여재의 선정과 배치가 중요한 인자로 나타났다.
