Abstract

In this study, organic carbon was extracted from the condensed water of food waste drying process to estimate the applicability as external organic carbon sources. The COD, TN, TP and TS of condensed water were 21,374 mg/L, 148 mg/L, 4.19 mg/L, and 455.7 mg/L, respectively. In addition, the content of biodegradable organics in condensed water was 47%. The fractional distillation and the vacuum evaporation were employed for extracting organic carbon. There were 8 extraction conditions, but 4 conditions were available for extraction. They were 1) 0mmHg, 110℃ 2) -600mmHg, 70℃ 3) -500mmHg, 80℃ 4) -600mmHg, 80℃. All 4 conditions showed the highest organic concentration and the highest quantity of organics when extracted 10% of initial volume. It was estimated that optimum conditions were 80℃, -600mmHg and 10% extraction. Then, extraction concentration, extraction quantity, extraction efficiency, extraction time, BOD/TCOD ratio, TVFAs/TCOD ratio and NH3-N were 174,200 mg/L, 8,710 mg, 46%, 10 min, 0.97, 0.74 and 75.5 mg/L respectively. Therefore, the extracted organic carbon can be utilized as external organic carbon sources.

본 연구에서는 음식물류폐기물 건조공정에서 발생하는 응축수에 포함된 유기탄소를 추출하여 외부탄소원으로서 적용 가능성을 평가하였다. 응축수의 성상은 COD, TN, TP 및 TS는 각각 21,374 (±3,238.3) mg/L, 148 (±32.6) mg/L, 4.19 (±1.5) mg/L, 455.7 (±0.015) mg/L로 나타났으며, 응축수에 포함된 생분해성 유기물의 함량은 47%였다. 응축수에 포함된 유기탄소 추출을 위하여 증발 농축 및 감압 증발 농축의 방법을 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 총 8가지 조건에서 수행 되었으나, 4가지 조건 (1. 상압 (0mmHg), 110℃ 2. 감압 (-600mmHg), 70℃ 3. 감압 (-500mmHg), 80℃ 4. 감압(-600mmHg), 80℃)에서 추출이 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 추출 결과, 추출된 4가지 조건 모두에서 유입 부피의 약 10% 추출하였을 때, 추출물의 유기물 농도가 가장 높고 추출 시간 대비 추출된 유기물의 양이 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 응축수에 포함된 유기탄소의 추출 최적 조건은 감압 (-600mmHg), 80℃로 판단하였으며, 유입 부피의 10% 추출이 적합한 것으로 평가하였다. 이때, 추출 농도, 추출량, 추출 효율, 추출시간, BOD/TCOD, TVFAs/TCOD의 비율 및 NH3-N의 값은 각각 174,200 mg/L, 8,710 mg, 46%, 10분, 0.97, 0.74, 75.5 mg/L로 나타났다. 따라서, 추출된 유기탄소는 외부탄소원으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
