Abstract

The stormwater runoff from the increasing paved roads and vehicles resulted in the increase in the pollutants load to adjacent water bodies. The granular media filtration facilities are the most widely adopted to minimize the non-point source pollution from motorways. It is essential to consider the severe variation of hydraulic condition, suspended solid (SS) characteristics, and the medium characteristics for stormwater management filter. In this study, different types of media, including sand, were tested and the performance of downflow sand filters was investigated under various linear velocity and influent solid particle size. Results showed that the best medium is the coarse sand with large grain size, which showed the specific SS removal before clogging of more than $8.498kg/m^2$, the SS removal of higher than 95%, and minimum head loss. Linear velocity did not affect the total solid removal, while the performance was improved when fine solid was introduced. It is suggested that the life of a downflow sand filter bed can be extended by deep bed filtration when influent particles are fine. However, the captured particles can be washed out after a long period of operation.

도로와 차량의 증가에 의해 강우시 도로 유출수가 주변 수계의 오염을 크게 악화시키고 있다. 강우 유출수에 의한 비점오염 저감시설로 여과시설이 가장 널리 사용되고 있으나, 이들은 역세척이 불가능하므로 여재의 폐색과 오염물의 재유출 등을 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 강우유출수 SS 처리를 위한 하향류식 여과 특성을 검토하였다. 여재로 여과사, 왕사-활성탄, 발포 폴리프로필렌(EPP)을 검토한 결과, 간극이 큰 입상여재인 왕사-활성탄이 단위면적당 SS 처리량 $8.498kg/m^2$ 이상, 평균 SS 제거율 95% 이상이며, 손실수두가 적어 가장 우수한 특성을 나타냈다. EPP 역시 수두손실은 거의 없었으나, 간극의 크기와 간극률이 매우 크기 때문에 SS 제거율이 불안정하고 낮았다. 또한, 비점오염 여과시설에 가장 많이 사용되는 여과사는 $1.395kg/m^2$의 SS 처리량과 평균 95% 정도의 SS 제거율을 나타냈다. 여과사의 경우, 선속도는 SS 처리량에는 큰 영향이 없으나, 선속도가 낮을수록 운전시간이 증가하고 SS가 보다 깊은 여재층에서 제거되었다. 또한, 유입 SS 크기가 작을 때에는 여재의 수명이 크게 증가하고 심층여과 현상을 나타냈으나, 장기운전 시에는 포획된 SS 유출에 의해 SS 제거율이 감소하였다. SS 크기가 클 때에는 표면여과에 의해 SS가 제거되며 손실수두 증가가 빨라지는 것으로 나타났다. 비점오염 저감시설은 수리학적 부하의 변동이 크고 다양한 특성의 SS가 유입되므로, 하향류식 여과시설 설치 시, 선속도, SS 크기, 여재 특성과 현장 조건을 충분히 고려하여 설치하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.
