Abstract
To evaluate the removal performance of PO4-P and NH3-N, laboratory experiments were conducted by filling a container with oyster shells, pyrolyzed at 100℃ (POS100), 600℃ (POS600) and 800℃ (POS800), and passing artificial wastewaters through the container. The pH in the ef luent was found to increase due to CaO eluted from oyster shell. Removal amounts of PO4-P of ~23.1 mg/kg, 16.1 mg/kg, and 15.9 mg/kg were obtained when POS100, POS600, and POS800, respectively, were used; therefore, the highest PO4-P removal amount was obtained when POS100 was used. It is considered that Ca and dolomite in the oyster shells adsorbed and precipitated PO4-P. Removal amounts of NH3-N were of ~3.56 mg/kg, 5.72 mg/kg, and 3.97 mg/kg were obtained when POS100, POS600, and POS800, respectively, were used The low removal rate for NH3-N is probably due to unstable nitrification, use of sealed containers, and the effect of NH3-N being converted to NH4+ upon increasing pH. Based on these results, pyrolyzed oyster shell is expected to promote changes in PO4-P and NH3-N concentrations through chemical reactions. These results can also be used for basic research in the development of wastewater treatment.
