A study on ecological reprocessing and creation of biotope by reuse of treated waste water and nonpoint pollution source of stream

The Wangpo stream located in the Buyeo-gun was a small stream with both low water quality and quantity due to the cultivated land and settlement area through the stream. In order to restore ecosystem, the Sustainable Structured wetland Biotop system was applied to treat 1,500 to 7,000 ㎥/d amount of effluent water pumped from the Buyeo sewage treatment plant facility as well as inflowed from nonpoint pollution source of Wangpo stream. As a result of continuous monitoring for 2 years from 2016 to 2018 after completing restorative construction, the average BOD₅ as an index of organic pollution was 7.3 mg/L and the average effluent concentration became 2.1 mg/L, showing an improvement by 71.2%. The average inflow concentration of T-N was 7.953 mg/L and the average outflow concentration was 3.379 mg/L, showing 57.5% of improvement. The average inflow concentration of T-P was 0.177 mg/L and the average outflow concentration was 0.052 mg/L, showing about 70.7% improvement. The results of ecological monitoring after creating biotope by reuse of treated waste water and nonpoint pollution source of the Wangpo Stream are as follows. The plant taxa founded in water SSB(Sustainable Structured wetland Biotop) system of the Wangpo Stream was total 41 species in 21 families, showing a higher proportion of naturally introduced plant than that of artificially planted species. In case of other terrestrial animals, both amphibian and reptile group were confirmed as 3 species in 6 families, avian group was 25 species of 15 families, and mammal group observed 5 species in 5 families, respectively. All species have been created and enhanced through purified water inhabited in the SSB(Sustainable Structured wetland Biotop) system as a treatment wetland, eventually migrating to the Wangpo Stream.

하수처리수와 하천 비점오염원을 이용한 생태적 재처리 효과와 생물 서식처 창출 방안 - 왕포천 생태적수질정화비오톱(Sustainable Structured wetland Biotop) 시스템 사례를 중심으로 -

왕포천은 충청남도 부여군에 위치하고 있는 하천으로 유로 연장이 길지 않고, 경작지 및 취락지를 통과하는 하천으로 수질이 불량하고, 수량이 부족한 하천이다. 따라서 부여 하수처리수와 왕포천의 비점오염원 1,500~7,000 ㎥/d를 처리 하고 생태계를 복원하고자 SSB (Sustainable Structured wetland Biotop) system의 처리습지를 적용한 결과는 다음과 같다. 왕포천 복원에 대한 설계 및 시공 완료후인 2016년부터 2018년까지 지속적인 관리와 모니터링을 실시한 결과 BOD₅ 평균 농도는 7.3 mg/L, 평균 유출농도는 2.1 mg/L로 71.2%의 개선 효율을 나타내었다. T-N은 평균 유입 농도가 7.953 mg/L, 평균 유출 농도가 3.379 mg/L로 57.5 %, T-P의 평균 유입 농도는 0.177 mg/L, 평균 유출 농도는 0.052 mg/L로 70.7 %의 개선효과를 나타냈다. 왕포천 수질정화시설을 통한 생태계복원에 대한 모니터링 결과는 복원 후 3년 동안 모니터링 된 왕포천 수질정화시스템의 식물상은 21과 41종으로 식재수종보다 자연유입된 식물종의 비율이 높게 나타났다. 동물상에 대한 모니터링 결과, 양서류와 파충류는 3과 6종, 조류는 15과 25종, 포유류는 5과 5종이 왕포천과 생태적수질정화시설을 이동하며 서식하는 것으로 확인되어, 생물다양성도 창출및 향상된 것으로 나타났다.
