Abstract

This study was carried out to evaluated for dewaterability of sewage sludge using waste oystershell and loess. The Jar-Test and the Buchner funnel test were proceeded for the assessment of dewaterability of a thickened sludge and digested sludge. TTF(Time to Filter), SRF(Specific Resistance to Filtration) were adopted as the valuation indices of sludge dewaterability. Dewatering conditioner which composed of both oystershell and loess is much dewaterable than the one composed of only oystershell. In the course of combining with oystershell and loess, the following fact was found that the dewaterability of the combination which have the higher ratio of oystershell than that of loess is superior. The most suitable oystershell :loess ratio of dewatering conditioner is 9:1 in treating both thickened sludge and digested sludge.

본 연구에서는 폐굴껍질과 황토를 사용하여 하수슬러지를 탈수개량성을 평가하였다. 농축슬러지와 소화슬러지의 탈수특성을 평가하기 위해 Jar Test와 Buchner Funnel Test를 실시하였다. TTF(Time to Filter), SRF(Specific Resistance to Filtration)를 슬러지 탈수 특성의 평가 지표로 하였다. 굴껍질과 황토를 혼합해 제조된 탈수개량제가 굴껍질 단독으로 만들어진 것보다 탈수성이 더 높았다. 굴껍질과 황토와 결합하는 과정에서, 굴껍질의 비율이 황토의 비율보다 더 높은 혼합비율에서의 탈수성이 높다는 사실을 발견하였다. 농축슬러지와 소화슬러지의 처리에서 탈수성이 가장 적합한 혼합은 굴껍질:황토의 비가 9:1이었다.
