산불에 의한 지하수 토양 환경오염과 방사성 물질 분포 및 거동 영향 고찰 = Groundwater and Soil Pollution Caused by Forest Fires, and Its Effects on the Distribution and Transport of Radionuclides in Subsurface Environments: Review

국문 초록 (Abstract)

산불은 연소 과정에서 다양한 오염물질을 배출하여 심각한 환경 문제를 초래할 수 있다. 최근 지구 온난화와 기후변화의 영향으로 전 세계적으로 산불의 규모와 빈도가 증가하여 환경에 미치는 영향 역시 급증할 것으로 예상된다. 한국은 산불 발생이 빈번한 동해안 지역에 원자력 발전소가 위치하고 있어, 중대 사고에 대비하여 산불 환경에서 방사성 핵종의 거동 특성에 대한 이해가 요구된다. 본 리뷰 논문에서는 산불이 지하수 토양 환경에 가져오는 변화와 오염 특성을 검토하고, 산불로 변화된 지하수토양 환경에서의 방사성 핵종 거동을 고찰하였다. 특히, 변화된 지중환경의 여러 특성 중 방사성 핵종의 거동에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인들을 고려하였으며, 보다 구체적인 메커니즘 이해를 위해 산불이 초래하는 지하수 토양 환경 변화와 오염에 대한 연구의 필요성을 기술하였다.

Forest fires can generate numerous pollutants through the combustion of vegetation and cause serious environmental problems. The global warming and climate change will increase the frequency and scale of forest fires across the world. In Korea, many nuclear power plants (NPPs) are located in the East Coast where large-scale forest fires frequently occur. Therefore, understanding the sorption and transport characteristics of radionuclides in the forest fire areas is required against the severe accidents in NPPs. This article reviewed the physiochemical changes and contamination of groundwater and soil environments after forest fires, and discussed sorption and transport of radionuclides in the subsurface environment of burned forest area. We considered the geochemical factors of subsurface environment changed by forest fire. Moreover, we highlighted the need for studies on changes and contamination of subsurface environments caused by forest fires to understand more specific mechanisms.
