유입수 성상이 서로 다른 9개소의 하수처리장에서 발생하는 하수슬러지의 재이용 가능성에 대하여 퇴비 기준 및 부숙토 기준으로 검토하였다. (1) 공장폐수가 유입되는 하수처리장의 탈수케이크에 함유된 Cr, Cu, Pb성분은 퇴비 및 부숙토 기준치를 초과하였다. (2) 중금속의 함량에 관한 기준을 만족하는 탈수케이크는 가연분 함량이 낮으므로 직접적인 재이용은 어려울 것으로 생각된다.

The on-site sewage sludge vermicomposting equipment was designed and evaluated on the batch and continuous tests. The vermicomposting equipment was designed to consider the mechanization as well as automation. Especially, the automatic controls of water content and temperature and the mechanization of the sludge feeding and cast separating were the important factors. In terms of changes in chemical characteristics when the equipments for experiments are operated continuously, the ORP, EC, $NH_3-N$ and $NO_3-N$ were found to be higher before and after treatment. In addition, it was found that changes in properties were low. Furthermore, the $NO_3-N$ concentration of the humus produced after treatment was found to be higher than the $NH_3-N$ concentration showing that it was appropriate based on the recycling criteria.

To study the development of solid waste compost to use sewage sludge and paper mill sludge for reclaiming damage soil in forest, the changes of temperature, moisture, chemical properties, heavy metals and harmful compound during the aerobic decomposition were investigated, and the compost decomposition of final products investigated the round paper chromatography method and G.I(Germination index) value. The results were summarized as follows. Temperature was changed a little during early 5days because of air temperature too low. That was rapidly increased to over $50^{\circ}C$ at 4days after first turning and then decreased gradually fallen to $40{\sim}50^{\circ}C$ at 15days after aerobic decomposition in A and C treatments. The second turning was conducted at 18 days after aerobic decomposition, and then the temperature was little changed. At the compare first with terminal product, The moisture content was decreased all treatments but the change was little in A and B treatments. pH was decreased to below 1 in all treatments. EC was increased to below 5dS/m. The content of total carbon, C/N ratio, $NH_4{^+}-N$ were decreased with 4~7%, below 8 and below 500mg/kg in all treatments, respectively. The content of total nitrogen, $NO_3{^-}-N$, CEC were increased with below 0.5%, below 173mg/kg and over $30cmol^+/kg$ in all treatments, respectively. The content of heavy metals and harmful compound were similar during aerobic decomposition and suited to standard of 가 grade in all treatments. The result of round paper chromatography method and G.I. value, The C treatment concluded well aerobic decomposition. Especially, the G.I. value in C treatment was 64.1 and 66.2 at cabbage and grass, respectively.

1) 지렁이를 이용한 하수슬러지의 분변토화 공정에서 실험실 규모의 처리에서는 장기간의 부숙 기간이 필요하였으나 개방된 대형 비닐하우스 시설을 사용한 처리 시스템에서는 전처리 공정의 생략이 가능하였다. 2) 하수슬러지의 이화학적 특성을 분석한 결과 지렁이 생육 조건은 만족하였으나 중금속 함량은 부숙토 원료기준을 초과하는 경우가 있었다. 3) 인위적으로 사육상 온도 조절이 없는 비닐하우스내 사육상의 온도는 기상 조건의 영향을 직접 받고 있으므로 계절별로 슬러지 처리기간 및 지렁이 성장밀도에 차이를 나타내었다. 4) 지렁이를 이용하여 하수슬러지를 처리하고자 할 때 유해성분에 의한 지렁이의 생육에는 문제가 없었다. 그러나 슬러지와 분변토의 중금속 함량을 부숙토의 원료기준 및 제품기준과 비교하였을 때 기준을 초과하는 경우가 있었다. 따라서 지렁이를 이용하여 하수슬러지를 처리하고자 할 때 원료 및 분변토의 특성개량과 재활용성을 높이기 위하여 부원료의 개발과 활용이 필요하였다.

This study was performed to obtain the basic data on current situations and challengeable aspects of vermicomposting industries in Korea and to develope foodwaste treatment technology using earthworm. Pre-treatment process of food waste consists of cleaning, grinding, mixing and others, and salinity of food waste was 0.7% on average, thus not suitable for feed of worms. When applying wash water and going through the cleaning process, however, salinity was dropped to 0.38%, indicating that cleaning process applying wash water is necessary to control the proper salinity for growth of worms. In the food waste processing experiment applying worms, it has been presented that smaller particles induce higher processing efficiency. As a result, food waste processing by worms is possible through maintaining the suitable environment for survival of worms from input process to generation of cast. Cast generated after processing food waste was proved to be most suitable for product standard of compost thus cast is presented to be recycled after processing the food waste applying the worms.

As construction and expansion of wastewater treatment works is continuing, generation of sludge is increasing. Bur most sludge is not used appropriately but disposed by landfill dumping to sea. Furthermore direct landfilling of sludge cake containing moisture content over 75% has been legally prohibited since 2001 that's enforcement will be more strict in 2003. Such a situation means nowadays recycling of organic waste such as sludge and food waste is necessary. Composting is one of recycling methods commonly and used as an effective means of stabilizing organic waste and then compost can be used as fertilizer. However fertilizer law management which include standard of compost products and other fertilizers applied all sludge products indiscriminiately and was not flexible. So MOE has graded organic composts according to land applications to improve recycle of organic wastes. The classified organic compost which contains low contaminants has been possible to use as various purpose. This study enalyzed 30 samples which were raw materials for compost and compost products management well and to estimate the quality of compost products. Heavy metals were measured in Raw materials and OM/N, NaCl and VS were tested in compost products as well as heavy metals. As a result, approximate 10% of raw materials was not suitable to the grade A and 6.7% over the grade B of the regulation on raw materials for compost. In the case of 30 produced compost propducts approximate, 57% of composts was not compatible with the grade A and B of the regulation on composting product. The qualities of compost products were worse than raw materials, because the compost products have more regulation item raw materials have.
