울산만 내 퇴적물에 대하여 다이옥신/퓨란류(polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans, PCDD/Fs)와 다이 옥신류 피씨비(dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls, DL-PCBs), PBDEs(polybrominated diphenyl ethers)의 잔류수 준을 조사하고 분포를 평가하였다. 33개 정점에서 채취한 퇴적물 중 PCDD/Fs, DL-PCBs, PBDEs는 각각 0.11~4.86 (평균±표준편차, 1.81±1.04) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 건중량(dw), 0.06~44.2(4.02±7.99) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 dw, 2.81~63.8(19.4±13.9) ng g -1 dw 수준으로 검출되었다. 총 다이옥신류(PCDD/Fs+DL-PCBs)에 대하여 DL-PCBs가 약 88%로 PCDD/Fs에 비해 높은 기여율을 나타내었다. 또한, 울산만 내부에 위치한 정점의 퇴적물은 외부 정점에 비해 높은 농도수준을 보였다 (p<0.05). 총 다이옥신류 중 PCDD/Fs는 고염소의 DD/Fs에서 높은 기여율을 차지하 였으며, 이성질체의 분포패턴은 연소공정의 영향이 큰 공업지역 퇴적물의 특성을 나타내었다. DL-PCBs는 PCB77, -105, -118가 주요 이성질체로써, 상업용 PCB 제품과 분포특성이 유사하게 나타났다. 또한, 퇴적물 내 PBDEs 분포에서 BDE209가 주요 이성질체로 나타났으며, 이는 상업용 deca-BDE 제품의 사용량에 의한 영향으로 판단된다.We investigated the concentrations and distribution patterns of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins/dibenzofurans(PCDD/Fs), 12 dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls(DL-PCBs) and 24 polybrominated diphenyl ethers(PBDEs) in sediments from Ulsan Bay in Korea. The concentrations of PCDD/Fs, DL-PCBs, and PBDEs in 33 sediment samples ranged from 0.11 to 4.86(1.81±1.04) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 dry weight(dw), 0.06 to 44.2(4.02±7.99) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 dw, and 2.81 to 63.8(19.4±13.9) ng g -1 dw, respectively. DL-PCBs had dominant contributions(mean, 88%) of total TEQ concentrations in sediment. The concentrations of target compounds in inner locations were higher than those in outer locations in Ulsan Bay (p<0.05). The dominant contribution of highly chlorinated DD/Fs in sediment was associated with combustion process from industrial complexes. Distribution pattern of DL-PCBs was similar with those of commercial PCB products. BDE209 was a dominant congener in sediment, suggesting high use amount of commercial deca-BDE product in surrounding areas.
Tribuyltin (TBT)을 포함한 유기주석 방오도료의 국내 사용규제에 따른 저감효과를 평가하기 위해서, 국내에서 가 장 큰 산업항 중 하나인 울산항 주변에서 2009년과 2011년에 채취한 퇴적물 내 유기주석화합물(butyltin compounds; BTs)을 정량하여 잔류수준과 공간적 분포를 조사하였다. 또한 2003년 조사결과와 비교하여 퇴적물 내 유기주석화합 물 잔류의 장기경향을 조사하였다. 퇴적물 내 TBT의 농도범위는 14.2~1204 ng Sn g -1 dry wt이었고, dibutyltin은 19.5~980 ng Sn g -1 dry wt을 보였다. BTs의 가장 높은 농도는 대형조선소 부근에서 조사되었고, 다음으로 높은 농 도는 울산항 컨테이너선 정박지 부근에서 조사되었다. 이것은 울산만에서 TBT의 가장 중요한 배출원은 선박활동을 포함한 해운산업과 관련 있음을 의미한다. 2003년, 2009년, 2011년의 BTs 농도를 비교한 결과, 퇴적물 내 TBT 농도는 유의한 수준으로 감소하고 있어서 국내 사용규제에 따른 저감 효과가 울산만에서도 나타나고 있었다. 해수와 생물 내 농도감소는 보고된 적이 있지만, 규제 이후 퇴적물에서 유기주석화합물의 농도감소는 이번 연구에서 처음 보고 되는 결과이다. 하지만, 퇴적물 내 BTs의 잔류수준은 생물학적 영향농도보다 높은 수준이었다. 따라서 울산만에서 유기주석화합물로 인한 오염에 대한 저감노력과 지속적인 모니터링이 필요하다.Butyltin compounds (BTs) were determined in surface sediment samples from Ulsan Bay in 2009 and 2011, to assess the contamination status and the effectiveness of tributylin (TBT) restriction of Korea. Dibutyltin and TBT concentrations in sediments in 2011 ranged from 19.5 to 980 and 14.2 to 1204 ng Sn g -1 dry weight, respectively. The highest TBT concentration was found in a big shipyard complex and the next highest was found in harbor, suggesting that harbor and shipyard activities are a major contamination source of TBT in Ulsan Bay. Concentrations of BTs in Ulsan Bay sediments were significantly lower in 2009 and 2011 than that in 2003 survey previously reported, probably as a consequence of the legislative action in Korea. However, TBT concentrations in sediments still exceeded ecotoxicological values. Therefore, it will be important to monitor and reduce TBT contamination in sediments until the levels fall well below ecotoxicological levels.
국내 연안의 다양한 양식장의 퇴적물과 양식생물에 대하여 다이옥신류(PCDD/Fs), 다이옥신류피씨비(DLPCBs), 및 브롬화방염제(PBDEs)의 잔류수준을 조사하고 분포를 평가하였다. 양식장 퇴적물 중 PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, PBDEs는 각각 0.03~2.9(평균±표준편차, 1.2±0.89) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 건중량(dw), 불검출~1.1(0.09±0.19) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 dw, 불검출~16.6(2.96±3.53) ng g -1 dw 수준으로 검출되었다. 또한 양식생물 체내 함유량은 각각 불검출 0.24(0.07±0.06) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 습중량(ww), 불검출~0.11(0.04±0.04) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 ww, 0.05~0.29 (0.13±0.06) ng g -1 ww 수준이었다. 국내 연안 중 동해안과 남해안에 위치한 양식장 퇴적물 중 총다이옥신류(PCDD/ Fs+DLPCBs)와 PBDEs의 농도는 서해안보다 약 4~7배 높은 수준을 보였다. 퇴적물에서는 총다이옥신류에 대한 PCDD/Fs 기여율이 대부분(평균 94%)을 차지했지만, 양식생물에서는 DLPCBs가 약 33% 수준으로 퇴적물에 비해 높은 기여율을 보였다. PBDEs 중에서는 양식장 퇴적물과 생물 모두에서 BDE209가 가장 높게 검출되었다. 이전 연 구와 비교했을 때, 국내연안 퇴적물과 양식생물 중 PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, PBDEs의 잔류수준은 대체로 감소하는 추 세에 있는 것으로 판단된다.We investigated the concentration levels and evaluated the distributions of 17 polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans(PCDD/Fs), 12 dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls(DLPCBs) and 24 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in sediment and organism from various culturing grounds in Korean coast. The levels of PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, and PBDEs in sediment samples ranged from 0.03 to 2.9(Mean±SD, 1.2±0.89) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 dry weight(dw), ND(not detected) to 1.1(0.09 ± 0.19) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 dw, and ND to 16.6(2.96 ± 3.53) ng g -1 dw, respectively. Also, the levels of PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs, and PBDEs in culturing organisms ranged from ND to 0.24(0.07 ± 0.06) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 wet weight(ww), ND to 0.11(0.04 ± 0.04) pg WHO 2005 -TEQ g -1 ww, and 0.05 to 0.29(0.13 ± 0.06) ng g -1 ww, respectively. The levels of total dioxins(PCDD/Fs+DLPCBs) and PBDEs in sediments from East and South sea were four to seven times higher than those from West sea. PCDD/Fs had dominant contribution(mean, 94%) for TEQ concentration in sediment, whereas relatively higher contribution of DLPCBs(33%) were shown in culturing organism than sediment. BDE209 was a dominant congener in both matrix. The concentrations of PCDD/Fs, DLPCBs and PBDEs were in decreasing trends in Korea coasts compared to previous results.
Wastewater organic compounds, that is, nonylphenolic compounds (NPs) and fecal sterols, were measured in surface sediments from Busan Suyeong Estuary, where two wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are located, to assess contamination from municipal effluents. The NPs analyzed were nonylphenol, and nonylphenol mono-and di-ethoxylates, all synthetic endocrine disruptors. The fecal sterols analyzed were coprostanol (COP), cholestanol, and epicoprostanol. Concentrations of NPs in the sediments ranged from 146 to 3,723 ng/g, and those of COP ranged from 366 to 13,018 ng/g. Their detection in all of the sediments analyzed indicates widespread pollution by municipal effluents. The highest concentrations of NPs and COP were detected at stations close to outfalls of WWTPs. Their levels in sediments are categorized in the higher range of those previously reported in Korean coastal areas. Moreover, in comparison with screening values of NPs in the Netherlands, Norway, and Canada, more than 50% of the sampling stations exceeded the guidelines. This indicates that the estuary may be adversely influenced by municipal effluents.
