Abstract
Two different cutting-oils from H and B companies which are sold as an eco-friendly cutting-oils were selected and the biodegradability of these commercially available cutting-oils was evaluated by the sequencing batch reactor (SBR) processes. The cutting-oil wastes ($H_1$) pre-treated by coagulation/flocculation was used as an influent to SBR. When the F/M ratio was operated 0.04 to 0.08kgCOD/kgMLSS d, removals of $BOD_5$and $COD_{Cr}$were above 97% and 91%, respectively. T-N and T-P removals were above 76% and 81%, respectively. If the diluted cutting-oil wastes ($B_1$) was used as an influent of the SBR, $COD_{Cr}$removals were above 77% at the F/M ratio of 0.01-0.02kgCOD/kgMLSS d. After the cutting-oil wastes was treated by coagulation/ flocculation ($B_2$), $COD_{Cr}$removals was above 85%. If the pre-treated cutting-oil wastes were mixed with a synthetic wastewater ($B_3$) and fed into the SBR in order to mimic the real wastewater treatment plant situation, $BOD_5$and $COD_{Cr}$removals were above 97%, 91%, respectively. T-N and T-P removals were above 79% and 76%. The ratio between $BOD_5$and $COD_{Cr}$, ($COD_{Cr}$-$BOD_5$)/$COD_{Cr}$, indicating the biodegradability of effluent of the SBR, was calculated to 85% and 61%. This means that significant amounts of non-readily-biodegradable organic compounds in the effluent of $H_1$, $B_3$are still present.
본 연구에서는 연속회분식반응조 (Sequencing Batch Reactor, SBR)를 이용하여 친환경성 절삭유라는 이름으로 시판되는 절삭유 2종 (H사, B사)의 생물학적 처리능을 평가하였다. H사의 절삭유를 응집/응결 전처리 ($H_1$)하여 0.04-0.08kgCOD/kgMLSS d의 F/M비로 SBR로 유입한 경우, $BOD_5$와 $COD_{Cr}$의 평균 제거율은 각각 97%, 91%이상을 나타내었으며, T-N, T-P의 평균 제거율은 각각 76%, 81%이상을 나타내었다. B사의 절삭유를 희석한 후 ($B_1$) 0.01-0.02kgCOD/kgMLSS d의 F/M비에 맞추어 SBR로 유입한 경우, $COD_{Cr}$의 평균 제거율은 77% 이상을 나타내었다. 응집/응결 처리된 절삭유 (B2)를 0.01-0.04kgCOD/kgMLSS d의 F/M비에 맞추어 유입한 경우, $COD_{Cr}$의 평균 제거율은 85%이상을 나타내었다. 이후 실제 처리장에서 폐절삭유를 처리할 때 오수와 합병하여 처리하는 상황을 반영하기 위하여 $B_2$와 합성폐수를 혼합하여 ($B_3$) 0.09-0.11kgCOD/kgMLSS d의 F/M비에 맞추어 유입하였을 때, $BOD_5$와 $COD_{Cr}$의 평균 제거율은 각각 97%, 98%이상을 나타내었고 T-N, T-P의 평균 제거율은 각각 79%, 76%이상을 나타내었다. 그리고 생물학적 처리를 거친 $H_1$과 $B_3$에 대한 각각의 유출수의 ($COD_{Cr}$-$BOD_5$)/$COD_{Cr}$비는 각각 85%와 61%정도로 난분해성 유기물이 잔존하고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
