Abstract
This study has been assessed the influence of applying sewage sludge to soil amendments on the sorption properties, and leaching potential of three commonly used organophosphorus pesticides, Diazinon, Fenitrothion, and Chlorpyrifos. A sandy soil with a low content of organic carbon was treated with sewage sludge with a ratio sandy soil sludge ratio of 30:1. The sorption was determined with the batch equilibrium technique. The sorption isotherms could be described by Freundlich equation. The Freundlich constant, K value which measures sorption capacity, were 3.97, 9.94, 22.48 for Diazinon, Fenitrothion, Chlorpyrifos in non-amended soil. But in amended soil, K value was 12.58, 28.47, and 61.21 for Diazinon, Fenitrothion, and Chlorpyrifos. The overall effect of sewage sludge addition to soil was to increase pesticides adsorption, due to the high sorption capacity of the organic matter. The effect of sludge on the leaching of pesticides in the soil was studied using packed soil columns. Total recoveries of pesticides in soil and leachate with leaching in soil column, were in the range of about 73∼84%, was reduced with the passage of time. Diazinon moved more rapidly than Chlorpyrifos in the unamended soil due to greater sorption and lower water solubility of Chlorpyrifos. Total amounts of pesticides leached from the sewage sludge amended soils were significantly reduced when compared with unamended soils. This reduction may be mainly due to and increase in sorption in amended soils, as a consequence of the increase in the organic matter content.

본 연구는 하수슬러지를 토양개량재로 적용에 따른 세 가지 유기인계 농약 Diazinon, Fenitrothion, Chlorpyrifos의 흡착특성에 관하여 분석하였다. 유기인계 농약 흡착시험 결과, 농약 흡착 등온식은 Freundlich 식이 잘 맞았다. Freundlich 상수 중 하나인 N은 모든 농약에서 1에 가까운 수치를 보였으나, 유기물 함량이 증가할수록 Freundlich 상수값인 N 값은 감소하였다. 또한 Freundlich식에서 흡착능을 나타내는 K값은 농약의 물에 대한 용해도가 감소할수록 증가하였으며, 토양에 슬러지를 첨가한 시료에서는(Soil-Sludge) 토양내 유기물 함량의 증가로 농약 흡착량은 슬러지가 첨가되지 않은 시료(A-Soil)에 비해 2∼4배 정도 증가하였다. 토양층을 모사한 토양 컬럼에서 농약의 용출 특성은 물에 대한 용해도가 큰 농약일수록 용출 비율은 증가하였다. 또한 토양에 슬러지가 첨가됨에 따라 토양내 유기물 함량 증가하면 토양에서 농약 흡착량이 증가되어 농약이 토양하층으로 침투가 억제, 농약의 용탈 정도가 감소하였다.
