초록

부영양화로 인한 녹 적조류가 과잉 번식하여 다양한 환경문제를 야기해왔으나, 최근 조류를 에너지원으로 활용할 수 있는 바이오 디젤 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 특히 하수처리장의 산소공급을 위한 송풍에너지 절약을 위해 미세조류의 광합성 작용으로 발생하는 산소를 하수처리장에 적용시키는 연구도 다양하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 조류광합성 산소를 질산화에 필요한 산소로 활용하고자 실험실 규모의 조류-질산화 반응조를 운영하였으며, 운전구간은 크게 3구간으로 운전하였다. MLSS(Mixed Liquer Suspended Solid) 농도에 변화를 준 구간에서 24~38 %, Micro-algae 농도에 변화를 준 구간에서는 38~50%, 그리고 HRT(Hydraulic Retention Time)에 변화를 준 구간에서 61~80%의 암모니아성 질소 제거율이 나타났다. 연구결과 MLSS 가 감소함에 따라, Algae Biomass가 증가함에 따라 암모니아성 질소 제거율이 증가하는 경향을 보였으나, MLSS에 의한 영향보다 Algae biomass 에 의한 영향이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다.

Water-bloom and red tide due to eutrophication have been overgrown and have caused various environmental problems. Recently, however, research on bid-diesel that can utilize algae as an energy source has been actively carried out. In particular, many studies variously have been conducted to utilize algal photosynthesis oxygen as a supply method for reducing the energy by an air blower in MWTP. In this study, a lab scale algae-nitrification reactor was operated to replace the oxygen required for nitrogen removal and the operation period was largely divided into three sections. In the first section, ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency was 24 ~ 38% according to the MLSS (Mixed Liquer Suspended Solid) concentration. In the second section, ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency was 38 ~ 50% according to the micro-algae concentration and in the last section ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency was 61 ~ 80% according to HRT (Hydraulic Retention Time). As a result, as the MLSS decreased and algae biomass increased, the ammonia nitrogen removal efficiency tended to increase, but the effect of Algae biomass was greater than that of MLSS.
