Abstract

The objective of this study was to verify whether SCB(Slurry Composting & Bio-filtration) system can be applied for the treatment of anaerobic digestion(AD) wastewater and also, to identify the most effective set among three filtration compost beds tested. Results can be summarized as these; (a) When AD wastewater was sprayed on the top of beds which were mainly composed of sawdust and/or other media and, subsequently, filtrates collected and analyzed, there were large drop in the values of Electric Conductivity(EC), Total Suspended Solid(TSS), Biochemical Oxygen Demand(BOD), and Chemical Oxygen Demand(COD). In contrast, Total Nitrgen(T-N) and Total Phosphorus(T-P) were progressively elevated. We consider these changes as positive if the filtrate are to be utilized as liquid fertilizer. (b) When three sets of filtration beds (T1, T2, T3) were compared for their effectiveness, no significant difference was found among them. These indicate that expensive sawdust can be replaced in part with cheaper media such as woodchip, rice husks, or others. (c) At early stage of operation (within 20 days), BOD in filtrates were maintained at high level probably due to the lack of microbial activity. During the same stage, T-N, T-P was at low level but, were elevated to higher levels thereafter. These data, when combined, indicate that the filtration system needs at least a couple of weeks for the optimized microbial functioning. (d) The temperatures of the experimental beds were progressively dropped as the experiment continued through the fall season, although filtration effectiveness was not noticeably influenced.

본 실험에서는 돈분뇨의 혐기소화 과정에서 발생하는 소화폐액을 액비로 자원화하기 위해 기존의 SCB 기법(퇴비단 여과)을 적용하여 그 효과를 검토하였으며, 여과재의 선택과 여과단 구성방법이 여과작용에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 평가하였다. 주요 결과를 요약하면 (a) 퇴비단 여과상을 이용하여 돈분뇨 슬러리 혐기소화폐액을 여과하였을 경우, EC, BOD, SS는 낮아지고 T-N, T-P는 상승하는 것을 확인하였으며, 이러한 변화는 여과액이 액비로서 지니는 가치를 상승시키는 효과라고 볼 수 있다. (b) 3가지의 퇴비단 조합들(T1, T2, T3)을 비교해 볼 때 대부분의 지표에서 별다른 차이를 보이지 않았다 따라서 값비싼 원료인 톱밥을 저가의 왕겨 또는 목편으로 일부 대체하였을때 퇴비단의 여과 능력에는 큰 변화가 없을 것으로 판단된다. (c) 초기 여과액에서는 BOD가 매우 높게 유지되었으나 여과상의 미생물이 충분히 증식함에 따라 하향 안정되었다. 반면 T-N, T-P의 경우 초기에는 낮은 수준을 유지하다가 15일 이후 원수와 비슷한 수준으로 유지되었다. 이 결과에서 퇴비단 운영 시작 후 20일 이내에 얻어진 여과액은 액비로 사용하기에는 적합하지 않으며 사용을 제한할 필요가 있다고 판단된다. (d) 계절적인 영향에 의한 외기온도의 저하로 퇴비단 내부 온도가 저하되었으나 여과효율에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
