Evaluation of Combined Vertical and Horizontal Flow Sand-Filled Reed Constructed Wetland with Intermittent Feeding for Sewage Treatment

A sewage was treated using serially combined vertical(VFCW)and horizontal flow sand-filled reed constructed wetland(HFCW) with intermittent feeding. The sand had 1~3 mm diameter. The sewage entering the sewage treatment plant of Gyeonsang National University was fed into the reed constructed wetland bed for 10 minutes every 6 hours at the hydraulic load of $314L/m^2{\cdot}day$ based on the surface ares of the VFCW. In the VFCW effluent pH values were lower than those of the influent, whereas they were higher than those of the influent in the HFCW. DO values were increased in VFCW, but they were decreased in the HFCW. The OTR was $58.72gO_2/m^2{\cdot}day$ in the VFCW and $7.72gO_2/m^2{\cdot}day$ in the HFCW. Average removal efficiencies were SS 94.80%, BOD 90.77%, $COD_{Cr}$ 85.87%, $COD_{Mn}$ 87.72%, T-N 64.74%, $NH_4{^+}$-N 86.44%, T-P 87.70%. Nearly, half of T-N in the effluent was $NO_3{^-}$-N but the concentration of $NO_2{^-}$-N in the effluent was less than 0.64 mg/L.

간헐 주입 2단(수직 및 수평 흐름) 모래 갈대 인공습지에 의한 생활하수 처리

본 연구의 목적은 직렬연결 2단 수직 및 수평 모래 갈대 인공습지에 생활하수를 간헐적으로 주입하였을 때 각 수질항목별 처리효율을 평가하는 것이다. 하수는 수리학적 부하량 $314L/m^2{\cdot}day$(수직 흐름 인공습지 기준)를 하루 4(10분 동안 주입후 5시간 50분 동안 중단)회 균등하게 간헐적으로 주입하였다. 평가 결과 pH는 유입수(7.27)보다 수직 흐름 인공습지 유출수(5.81)에서 감소하였다가 수평 흐름 인공습지 유출수(6.40)에서 다시 증가하였다. DO의 농도는 유입수에 비하여 유출수에서 높았으며 겨울로 갈수록 증가하였다. 수직 흐름 인공습지의 산소 전달율 (oxygen transfer rate: OTR)은 $58.72gO_2/m^2{\cdot}day$ 그리고 수평 흐름 인공습지의 OTR은 $7.72gO_2/m^2{\cdot}day$이었다. 각 항목별 평균 처리효율은 SS 94.80%, BOD 90.77%, $COD_{Cr}$ 85.87%, $COD_{Mn}$ 87.72%, T-N 64.74%, $NH_4{^+}$-N 86.44%, T-P 87.70%이었다. 유출수중 T-N의 반 정도는 $NO_3{^-}$-N(7.21 mg/L)이었으며 $NO_2{^-}$-N은 평균 0.64 mg/L이었다.
