초록

본 연구에서는 하폐수 탈질 과정에서 전자수용체의 종류와 농도, 전자공여체/전자수용체(C/N)비율, 그리고 전자공여체의 복합도(complexity)가 $N_2O$ 배출에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 조사하였다. 탈질 질소원의 농도가 높을수록 $N_2O$ 배출량도 증가했으며 ${NO_2}^-$를 이용하는 경우가 ${NO_3}^-$에 비해 $N_2O$ 배출량이 높아 ${NO_2}^-$가 $N_2O$ 배출에 중요한 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. ${NO_2}^-$-N 50 mg/L에서 $N_2O$-N으로의 전환율 9.3%와 수율 9.8%로 가장 높게 나타났으며 ${NO_3}^-$-N은 50 mg/L에서 전환율이 5.6%, 수율은 11.0%로 나타났다. 유기탄소원/질소(C/N) 비율이 감소하면 질소 제거율은 감소하나 $N_2O$로의 전환율은 증가하였다. 실제 하수를 전자공여체로 이용한 경우가 단일 탄소원인 acetate를 이용한 경우에 비해 $N_2O$ 배출량이 1/10 이하로 현저히 감소하였다. 이는 복합 탄소원이 전자공여체로 이용될 경우 단일 탄소원(acetate)에 비해 다양한 탈질 대사(경로)를 이용하고 이것이 $N_2O$ 배출량 저감에 도움이 되는 것으로 판단된다.

The effects of the compounds and concentrations of nitrogenous electron acceptor, the ratio of electron donor/electron acceptor (C/N), and the complexity of electron donor on the emission of $N_2O$ during wastewater denitrification were quantitatively investigated in this study. The higher ${NO_3}^-$ and ${NO_2}^-$ concentrations, the more $N_2O$ emission was observed. ${NO_2}^-$ has strong effect on $N_2O$ emission as it emitted morc $N_2O$ than ${NO_3}^-$, 50 mg/L of ${NO_2}^-$-N gave the highest conversion (9.3%) and yield (9.8%) of $N_2O$ while ${NO_3}^-$-N (50 mg/L) gave 5.6% conversion and 11.0% yield. Lower C/N ratio decreases nitrogen removal efficiency, but it increases the conversion of $N_2O$ because of the incomplete denitrification by the limited organic carbon. When real domestic wastewater is used as the electron donor of the denitrification, $N_2O$ emission is reduced to 1/10 of the emission when single carbon (acetate) is used. It is thought that multiple carbon source utilizes many denitrification pathways and it seems to be helpful for the reduction of $N_2O$ emission.
