The purpose of this study was to understand distribution characteristics of organic matters through concentration of $BOD_5$, $COD_{Mn}$ and TOC in 31 streams in Han River region, and to establish the relationship among organic matter concentration, and discharge load and flow rate. Concentration of $BOD_5$ and TOC in 22 streams were above IV grade except 9, and the average 80.9 % of total organic matter (by TOC) accounted for dissolved organic type. Correlation among organic matter parameters were higher ($r^2$ > 0.78) and the relationship between TOC and $COD_{Mn}$ concentration was higher than $BOD_5$. Ratio of biodegradable organic matter/total organic matter in the 31 streams was estimated at 41.4 % with $BOD_5$ oxidation rate, and 78.0 % with $BOD_5/COD_{Mn}$ concentration ratio. Ratio of $NBOD/BOD_5$ concentration in four sites with $BOD_5/COD_{Mn}$ concentration ratio exceeding 1 ranged from 54.5 % ~ 79.3 %. Among 979 flow rate data measured at 31 streams, 87 % of measured data was below 0.1 cms and increased water pollution under low flow conditions. Correlation between $BOD_5$ concentration and $BOD_5$ discharge load in the watershed was low, and it was revealed that several streams have more $BOD_5$ delivery load than $BOD_5$ discharge load. Results suggest that many biodegradable forms of organic matter are being introduced into the stream from pollutant sources in the watershed.

The aim of this study is to understand the limitation of organic pollutant indexes ($BOD_5$, $COD_{Mn}$, $COD_{Cr}$) and estimate to set the TOC standard by comparing oxidation rates of $BOD_5$, $COD_{Mn}$, $COD_{Cr}$ and TOC based on the 487 organic compounds and 11 effluents from industrial wastewater containing various and unknown organic compounds. The range of ratio of theoretical oxygen demand (ThOD) to theoretical organic carbon (TOCt) was 0.00~5.33 and average ratio of classes of organic compounds was 2.68~3.70. According to classes of organic compounds, the average ratio of $O_2/C$ was 1.2 (range : 1.02~1.39). The order of oxidation rate for 15 organic compounds was TOC (90.7%) > $COD_{Cr}$ (88.8%) > $BOD_5$ (54.4%) > $COD_{Mn}$ (30.8%) indicating the lower oxidation rate of $BOD_5$ and COD compared with TOC. The ranking for average oxidation rate was $COD_{Cr}$ > $COD_{Mn}$ > $BOD_5$ indicating that $BOD_5$, $COD_{Mn}$ could be underestimated comparing with ThOD of organic compounds in case of industrial wastewater containing high concentration of refractory organic compounds. Most of the relationships between organic pollutant indexes and TOC were higher than 0.9. The ratio of TOC to organic compound indexes decreased in the order : $COD_{Cr}$ (3.4) > $COD_{Mn}$ > (1.9) > $BOD_5$ (0.7).

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a major concern because of their potential mutagenic and carcinogenic risks to human beings. One of these harmful, yet commonly observed PAHs is pyrene. Pyrene is one of the 16 PAHs listed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as priority pollutants. The purposes of this research are to develop a method of pretreatment for PAH contaminants prior to a typical biological treatment and to demonstrate the biodegradablity of these compounds. Since pyrene is non-polar, hexane was chosen as a solvent to effectively dissolve pyrene. Pyrene solutions were treated with ozone, as it has hish oxidation capacity and electrophilic character. The intermediates and byproducts of pyrene were dissolved in alkaline water at pH 11.4 and neutralized to test for $BOD_5$, COD, and toxicity. These solutions were further ozonated and assessed of biodegradability. The first-order rate constant to was found to be between $0.121day^{-1}$ and $0.081 day^{-1}$, depending on the duration of reozonation. The $BOD_5/COD$ ratio was found to 0.66. The toxicity test showed that after 10 min of reozonation time, the byproducts and intermediates of pyrene were within the lion-toxic range of ${\pm}10%$ inhibition for E-Coli bacteria.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the partial oxidation of the biological treatment plant effluents using Fenton's reagent as a pretreatment step prior to a tertiary biological oxidation of these effluents. Fenton's reagent was evaluated as a pretreatment process for inhibitory or refractory organics. Based on the Fenton oxidation system, the petrochemical wastewater treatment plant effluent was shown to have significant improvement in toxicity after oxidation with hydrogen peroxide. For example, at ranee of 42 ∼ 184 mg/L COD of petrochemical plant effluents, the COD removal efficiencies were from 38.2% to 60.1% after reaction with hydrogen peroxide 200 mg/L and Fe2+ 100 mg/L and reaction time was 30 minutes. The total TOC reduction were about 15.8∼22.4% with same test condition and difference between the overall removal rate and BOD/COD ratio after Fenton's oxidation estabilished in the biodegradation and otherwise meets the discharge standard or reuse for cooling tower make-up water.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the removal characteristics of total nitrogen, the influence factor of denitrification and the optimum operating condition in the pigment wastewater treatment using PAC-A/O process. The operating conditions of PAC-A/O process were mean BOD volumetric loading $0.86kgBOD/m^3/day$, mean F/M ratio 0.072~0.13 kgBOD/kgMLVSS/day and mean C/N ratio 3.47, respectively. The conditions of anoxic process in the field plant test were mean pH 8.3~8.7 and mean temperature $34.1{\sim}44.0^{\circ}C$. The ORP bending point knee was eventually appeared in the ORP -107 mV and $NO_3{^-}-N$ removal efficiency was increased according to the ORP decrease. In the ORP -107 mV below condition, the removal efficiency of T-N and $NO_3{^-}-N$ was 92.3~95.0% and 98.5~99.7%. Denitrification rate was calculated to be 1.581~1.791 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/gMLSS/hr$. The experimental results showed that the ORP control in the PAC-A/O process could be an effective method for treatment of pigment wastewater.

Nutrients removal performance of a contact oxidation reactor covered with soil was investigated when basalt rubble was used as a contact medium under various operating conditions. The objective of the experiment was to determine the effectiveness of the system by measuring the removal efficiencies of nutrients from a technical and economical viewpoint. Under the ranges of HRT(20 and 40 hrs) in the experiment, the removal rates of organic matter were as high as 97.5% by showing an effluent $BOD_5$ of less than 10 mg/L. The test of nitrogen removal when the turf was planted on the top soil showed that the average removal rate increased as much as 25% as compared to that without planting. It was suggested that the construction and maintenance cost could be reduced over 20% when the HRT of the system was decreased from 72 to 40 hrs.

본 연구는 토양피복 접촉산화공정에서 새로 개발된 생물담체(Bio-rock)와 기존에 이용되어온 쇄석의 처리효율을 비교하기 위해 실시되었다 합성폐수는 $COD_{Cr}$ $150{\sim}370\;mg/L$, $BOD_5$ $150{\sim}270\;mg/L$, $T-N$ $20{\sim}60\;mg/L$, $T-P$ $5{\sim}25\;mg/L$, pH 7, 미량원소용액 2 mL/L로 조제되었다. 반응조는 2기를 준비하여 유입수량을 40 L/day로 하여 약 13개월간 운전했다. 초기 바이오락 반응기는 시멘트중의 $Ca(OH)_2$의 용출에 의해 pH 12까지 증가하였으나, 쇄석은 유기물 분해와 질산화에 의해 pH 4까지 감소하였다. pH의 불균형은 유기물 및 질소 분해균의 성장 및 활성에 저해를 초래했다 그러나 바이오락의 높은 pH는 암모니아 탈기와 인의 화학침전에는 유리한 것으로 판단되었다. 정상상태에서 바이오락은 $COD_{Cr}$ 96%, $BOD_5$ 98%, T-N 80%, T-P 85%의 높은 제거율을 나타내었고. 유입농도의 변화에도 매우 안정적이었다. 반면 쇄석의 경우 $COD_{Cr}$ 96%, $BOD_5$ 96%, T-N 42%, T-P 40%의 제거율을 나타내었다. 바이오락은 쇄석에 비해 질소, 인의 처리효율이 2배나 높았다. 또 전자현미경 분석결과에서 바이오락은 미생물의 부착이 쇄석에 비해 양호했고, 미생물 농도는 바이오락이 $5.2{\times}10^6\;CFU/mL$, 쇄석이 $2.6{\times}10^6\;CFU/mL$로 바이오락이 2배 높았다. 따라서 바이오락은 미생물 부착이 용이하고 처리효율이 높으며 유입농도 변동에도 안정적으로, 향후 처리기간 단축 및 부지면적의 감소에 유리하리라 판단된다.

페니실린(PEN) 항생제의 분해를 위하여 오존, 과산화수소, 자외선으로 구성된 고도산화공정(AOP)을 적용하였다. 항생물질 분해효율은 흡광도(ABS) 및 총유기탄소(TOC) 분석으로 평가하였다. $O_3/H_2O_2/UV$와 $O_3/UV$ 조합이 ABS (9 min 동안 100%) 및 TOC 감소(60 min 동안 70%)에 가장 효과가 좋았으나 사용한 실험조건에서 항생제의 무기질화 및 독성제거는 완전하지 않았다. 항생물질에 의한 생독성은 Escherichia coli 민감도 및 Vibrio fischeri 생체형광 활성평가를 이용하였으며 $O_3/UV$에 의해 민감도는 9 min 동안 100% 감소, $O_3/H_2O_2/UV$에 의한 생체형광에 대한 독성은 60 min 동안 57% 감소하였다. 생물학적 분해를 위한 AOP 조합으로 $O_3/UV$ 조합을 선정하였으며 $BOD_5/COD$ 비율로 생분해도의 개선 여부를 간접 측정한 결과 $O_3/UV$로 30 min 처리함으로 $BOD_5/COD$ 비율이 약 4배 증가하였다. 페니실린 20 mg/L를 포함하는 인공폐수에 대하여 AOP 처리 후 Pseudomonas putida를 이용하여 호기적 생물학적 분해를 진행한 결과, $O_3/UV$ 전처리한 경우 페니실린의 완전 무기질화가 가능하였으며 전처리하지 않은 경우에 비하여 분해속도가 55% 증진되었다. 결론으로, 호기성 생물학적 처리를 위한 AOP 전처리로써 $O_3/UV$ 조합이 추천되며 페니실린의 완전 분해를 촉진할 수 있다.
