| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Weighted average total mercury concentration in sediment that is accumulated in current Minamata Bay is 2.3ppm, then a mass of remained mercury in Minamata bay is estimated to 3.4 ton. On the other hand, environmental factors that affected to the dissolved methylmercury concentration in seawater were estimated to temperature, salinity, DO (dissolved oxygen),DOC(dissolved organic carbon). Also,the room experiment that utilized a large aquarium(200L) was performed based on the combination experiment using these environmental factors. The combination experiment as for environmental factors are as follows: Seawater temperature 30℃、15℃,Salinity 3.0%、1.5%. Mercury concentration was 100ng/L( HgCl2 was added). As a result, the dissolved methylmercury concentration increased using the case of 30℃ and 1.5% definitely.
