초록

본 연구에서는, 탈수슬러지 및 음식물류폐기물의 효율적인 병합혐기성소화를 위해 폐기물의 혐기성소화 가능성 및 열화학적 전처리 방법에 대해 평가하였다. 폐기물의 혐기성소화 가능성 평가 결과, 음식물류폐기물이 탈수슬러지에 비해 혐기성미생물에 의해 분해 가능한 유기물 농도 및 methane yield가 각각 2.2배, 1.3배 더 높게 평가되었다. 바이오가스 발생량의 증대를 위해서는, 음식물류폐기물의 혼합비율을 증가시키는 것이 필요할 것으로 판단되었으며, 열화학적 전처리 효율은 반응온도, NaOH 주입량, 반응시간, 혼합비율 조건에 대해 평가하였다. 전처리 효율 및 탈수능을 통해 평가한 결과, 최적 열화학적 가용화 전처리 조건은 반응온도 140℃, NaOH 주입량 60 meq/L, 반응시간 60 min, 혼합비율 1:5로 평가되었다. 최적 열화학적 가용화 전처리 조건 적용 전과 후의 methane yield를 비교한 결과, 전처리를 적용한 경우에서, 가스발생속도 및 methane yield가 각각 1.6, 1.5배 증가하였다. 따라서, 탈수슬러지 및 음식물류폐기물의 효율적인 병합혐기성소화를 위해서는 음식물류폐기물의 혼합비율을 증가시키며, 폐기물의 전처리를 통해 가용화 효율을 증대시키는 것이 필요하다고 판단된다.

In this study, the anaerobic digestion potential and thermo-chemical pre-treatment were evaluated for efficient anaerobic co-digestion of dewatered sludge(DS) and food waste(FW). As a result, the degradable organic matter concentration and methane yield of FW were evaluated to 2.2 and 1.3 times higher than that of DS, respectively. In order to increase the amount of biogas production, it was determined that it is desirable to increase the mixing ratio of FW. The efficiency of thermo-chemical pre-treatment was evaluated for the reaction temperature, NaOH concentration, reaction time and mixture ratio. As a result of evaluation through pre-treatment efficiency and dehydration capacity, the optimum pre-treatment conditions were evaluated as follows: reaction temperature 140℃, NaOH concentration 60 meq/L, reaction time 60 min, mixture ratio 1:5(DS:FW). The gas production rate and methane yield increased 1.6 and 1.5 times, respectively, compared to before and after applying the optimum pre-treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the mixing ratio of food waste for efficient anaerobic co-digestion of DS and FW. and it is necessary to increase the solubilization efficiency of waste by application of pre-treatment.
