Abstract
Capacity of water treatment of the three phase fluidized bed reactor as a biofilter in the seawater recirculating system was evaluated. The water treatment system consists of fluidized bed reactor for ammonia removal, cartridge filter for solid removal and ozone contactor for disinfection. Mean concentration of water quality parameters: COD, TAN, $NO_2$-N, $NO_3$-N, SS and alkalinity were 9.0, 0.22, 0.05, 20.0, 9.5 and 70.0 mg/l, respectively; the relevant values were 7.6 for pH and 3.64 NTU for turbidity. These indicate the maintenance of good water quality by the treatment system. The influent TAN loading rate in to the fluidized bed reactor ranged from 4.3 to 32.9 g/$m^3$/day, and averaged to 20 g/$m^3$/day. TAN removal efficiency of each phase of the fluidized bed reactor was 47-60%, indicating the effective ammonia removal. During operation the effluent of fluidized bed reactors also maintained the unionized ammonia nitrogen level below 0.002 mg/l.
삼상 유동층 반응조의 수처리 효율을 검토하기 위해 해수 순환여과 시설을 운전하였다. 수처리 시스템은 유동층 반응조, 카트리지 필터, 오존접촉조로 구성되어 있고, 전체 운전기간동안 사육조내 수질인자별 평균농도는 각각 COD 9mg/L, 총암모니아(TAN) 0.22mg/L, 아질산성 질소 0.05mg/L, 질산성 질소 20mg/L, 탁도 3.64 NTU, SS 9.5mg/L, pH 7.6, 알칼리도 70mg/L 등으로 나타나 양호한 수질조건을 유지할 수 있었다. 유동층 반응조의 TAN 부하량 범위는 4.3~32.9 g/$m^3$/day였고, 평균 제거율은 20 g/$m^3$/day으로 나타났다. 각 반응조의 TAN 제거율은 47~60%로 나타나 해수에서도 효과적인 암모니아 제거 특성을 나타내었다. 또한 유출수의 비이온성 암모니아 농도는 0.002 mg/L이하로 유지 할 수 있었다
