Abstract

We investigated the performance of a jet loop reactor (JLR) with the two-fluid venturi-type swirl nozzle (TVSN) during experiment for ammonia removal by air stripping from a synthetic wastewater, and compared it with that of a JLR with the two-fluid venturi-type conventional nozzle (TVCN), with the variation of pH, liquid circulation rate ($Q_L$), and air flow rate ($Q_G$). Their performance levels were compared based on the ammonia removal efficiency and overall mass transfer coefficient ($K_La$). Investigated parameters in a JLR were pH (10-12), air flow rate ($Q_G=5-20L\;min^{-1}$), and liquid circulation rate ($Q_L=25-35L\;min^{-1}$). Throughout the experiment, the ammonia removal efficiency and $K_La$ in a JLR with TVSN was higher than in a JLR with TVCN. This may be due to the enhanced turbulent intensity by swirling flow formed in the JLR with TVSN compared to that with TVCN. Further, we obtained higher $K_La$ when pH, $Q_L$ and $Q_G$ were increased. In particular, $K_La$ was increased more efficiently by increasing $Q_G$ than by increasing pH and $Q_L$.

본 연구에서는 합성폐수로부터 암모니아 탈기 시 이유체 벤츄리형 선회 노즐이 장착된 제트 루프 반응기의 성능을 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 이유체 벤츄리형 선회 노즐과 일반 노즐이 장착된 각각의 제트 루프 반응기를 이용하여 조업조건 변화에 따른 암모니아 제거효율과 총괄물질전달계수($K_La$)를 각각 얻은 후, 이를 통해 성능을 비교하였다. 운전변수로는 pH(pH = 10-12), 액체순환유량($Q_L=25-35L\;min^{-1}$), 공기유입량($Q_G=5-20L\;min^{-1}$)을 변화시키며 실험하였다. 실험결과, 동일한 조업조건에서 이유체 벤츄리형 선회 노즐(two-fluid venturi-type swirl nozzle, TVSN)이 장착된 제트 루프 반응기가 이유체 벤츄리형 일반 노즐(two-fluid venturi-type conventional nozzle, TVCN)이 장착된 제트 루프 반응기보다 암모니아 제거효율과 $K_La$가 높게 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 이유체 벤츄리형 선회 노즐이 장착된 제트 루프 반응기에서 형성된 선회류 흐름에 의해 난류강도가 이유체 벤츄리형 일반 노즐이 장착된 제트 루프 반응기에 비해 높기 때문이라 판단된다. 또한, 실험조건 범위에서 $K_La$는 pH, 공기유입량 및 액체순환유량이 증가할수록 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 특히, 실험변수 중 공기유입량이 pH나 액체순환유량에 비해 $K_La$에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다.
