Abstract

To construct the system controlling the aeration volume for D wastewater treatment plant effectively, the fluctuation of aeration volume was analyzed with changes of factors of the influent. As a result, the range of aeration volume was wide to maintain the certain concentration of DO, and the key factor to decide the aeration volume was found to be the temperature, F/M ratio, the loading rate of $BOD_5$ and T-N of the influent. Among the factors, the temperature of the influent had the most decisive effect on the aeration volume. The result showed that $45.8m^3/h$ of the aeration volume was needed with an increase of $1^{\circ}C$ of the influent, and the effect of the season was considered. Since the temperature of the influent is affected by a change of season, same as F/M ratio, the loading rate of the influent and the concentration of MLSS, it seemed that the change of the temperature of the influent affects the aeration volume even more. Therefore, it is preferable to consider the loading rate of the influent and F/M ratio altogether, rather than considering only one factor when deciding aeration volume.

D하수처리장의 송풍량을 효과적으로 조절하는 시스템을 구축하기 위해 2011년 1월 1일부터 2012년 8월 31일까지 포기조 DO 농도를 평균 2.1 mg/L로 유지하면서 유입유량, 유입농도, 유입부하, 수온, F/M비, 생물반응조의 MLSS 농도 변화에 따른 송풍량 변화를 검토하였다. 그 결과 동일한 DO 농도를 유지하기 위한 송풍량 변화폭은 매우 크며, 송풍량 산정을 결정하는 주요 인자는 수온, F/M비, $BOD_5$ 유입 부하, T-N 유입 부하로 나타났다. 그 중 가장 큰 영향을 주는 지표는 수온으로 수온 $1^{\circ}C$ 증가는 $45.8m^3/h$의 송풍량을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 계절의 영향이 반영된 것으로 사료 된다. 하절기에는 유입 유량증가, 낮은 MLSS농도, F/M비 증가의 영향과, 동절기에는 유입 유량감소, 높은 MLSS농도, F/M비 감소 등의 영향이 송풍량에 반영되어, 수온 변화에 따른 필요 송풍량 변화를 더욱 가중시킨 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 호기조 송풍량 산정 시에는 유입유량, 유입 $BOD_5$농도, 유입 T-N농도 및 생물반응조의 MLSS농도 중 하나의 인자를 이용하는 것보다, 유입부하나 F/M비로 연산하여 접근이 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
