A new graphical method was developed to separate two distinctive decay rate coefficients($k_1$ and $k_2$) at their respective degradable substrate fractions($S_1 and $S_2$). The mesophilic batch reactor showed $k_1$ of $0.151\;day^{-1}$ for wasted activated sludge(WAS), $0.123\;day^{-1}$ for thickened sludge(T-S), $0.248{\sim}0.358\;day^{-1}$ at S/I ratio of $1{\sim}3$ for sorghum and $0.155{\sim}0.209\;day^{-1}$ at S/I ratio $0.2{\sim}1.0$ for swine waste, whereas their long term batch decay rate coefficients($k_2$) were $0.021\;day^{-1}$, $0.001\;day^{-1}$, $0.03\;day^{-1}$ and $0.04\;day^{-1}$ respectively. At least an order of magnitude difference between $k_1$ and $k_2$ was routinely observed in the batch tests. The portion of $S_1$, which degrades with each $k_1$ appeared 71% for WAS, 39% for T-S, 90% for sorghum, and $84{\sim}91%$ at S/I ratio of $0.2{\sim}1.0$ for swine waste. Ultimate biodegradabilities of 50% for WAS, 40% of T-S, $82{\sim}92%$ for sorghum, and $81{\sim}89%$ for swine waste were observed.

Air drying equipment was built as a device for reduction of dewatered cake from wastewater and waterworks sludge and to reproduce it by reusable matter. Dewatered cake was supplied into the air drying equipment which operated by air velocity of 80 m/sec, air rate 30 $m^3/min$ and air temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, and dried to produce the dried powder. The air drying equipment was composed of the air ejector which made high-speed fluid field, and cyclone which made circling fluid field. Dewatered cake was crushed at the high-speed zone as first step, and formed into dried powder of sphere shape by the collision between particles at the circling fluid zone.. Wastewater sludge with water content of 82.5 wt% was supplied 1.0 kg/min into air drying equipment and produced the dried powder which had the water content of 62.3 wt% and mass median diameter of 2.4 mm after process. At that time, it was analyzed that water removal rate was 0.1 $H_2O{\Delta}kg/min{\cdot}DS$ kg and air consumption was 170 $m^3/DS$ kg. Under same experimental conditions, when waterworks sludge was dried, water content of dried powder decrease to 47.5 wt% and mass median diameter decrease 2.1 mm and water removal rate increase 0.13 $H_2O{\Delta}kg/min{\cdot}DS$ kg. Air consumption increase 180 $m^3/DS$ kg with comparison to the results of wastewater sludge. Therefore, this technology was evaluated that drying the dewatered cake of waterworks sludge was more efficient than wastewater sludge, and also economical sludge handling technology due to drying the cake by only air.

Starvation 동안 슬러지를 폭기시킨 경우 floc의 크기감소가 더 크게 일어났다. SBR의 재운전으로 회복된 floc의 크기는 슬러지를 폭기시키지 않은 경우 starvation 이전과 비교하여 더 커졌으며, 슬라지를 폭기시킨 경우 starvation 이전보다 작아졌다. Starvation 동안 슬러지를 폭기하지 않은 경우 fractal dimension은 큰 폭으로 감소하지만, 폭기하였을 때는 감소폭이 매우 작았다. 이후 SBR의 재운전으로 인한 fractal dimension은 증가하였다. 슬러지의 침강성은 starvation 동안 폭기한 경우 폭기하지 않은 경우보다 SBR 재운전 직후 슬러지의 침강성이 더 불량하였으며, starvation 동안 폭기하지 않았을 때 슬러지 침강성의 회복현상이 나타났지만, 폭기를 수행한 경우 침강성의 회복이 느리게 일어났다. Starvation 동안 슬러지의 폭기 및 비폭기 수행결과 침강성은 fractal dimension보다 floc의 크기에 더 크게 좌우되는 것으로 나타났다.

The adsorption characteristics of the pellet-type adsorbent prepared from water treatment sludge for trimethylamine and ammonia were studied. The surface area and pore volume of the pellet-type adsorbent increased during calcination at $500^{\circ}C$. It was confirmed that the adsorbent prepared from water treatment sludge contained Br$\ddot{o}$nsted and Lewis acid sites. The breakthrough time of the adsorbent for both trimethylamine and ammonia was measured at different adsorbent weights and linear velocities while maintaining constant amounts of trimethylamine and ammonia. The kinetic saturation capacity and the adsorption rate constant for trimethylamine and ammonia were determined at different linear velocities by using the Wheeler equation. It was found that the kinetic saturation capacity and the adsorption rate constant were dependent on the linear velocity. An experimental equation could be derived to predict the breakthrough time of the adsorbent prepared from water treatment sludge for trimethylamine and ammonia at different adsorption conditions.

Sludge is generated in the process of water and wastewater treatment, and it has been causing various environmental problems. From this point of view, recycling of sludge appears to be the best way. The firing technology in pottery industry is applied to the sludge treatment , and the final product is called artificial soil. The effect of mixed artificial soil with upland soil was investigated through the crop growth experiment and the physical & chemical characteristics of the mixed soils were analyses. After the growth experiment , mixed soil plots contained more CEC, OM, TN, TP than upland soil plots. This result shows that the artificial soil produced form sludge can be mixed with upland soil, and crop can be increased. From the growth analysis, growth of soybean and corn in the mixed soil plots was better than that in the original upland soil plots. Heavy metals contents in the mixed soil plots were within the quality standard. This is a promising result since in most cases heavy metals are the most concern in the application of sludge product to farmland.

현재 상수시설의 경우 갈수록 악화되는 수질과 정수장의 유지관리 인원 상주의 어려움, 기존의 응집, 침전, 여과 정수처리 시스템의 처리성능 증대에 따른 한계성에 직면한 상황이다. 안정적으로 수질의 개선을 통한 장치의 컴팩트화, 유지관리가 편리한 고도정수 수질기준에 만족하는 정수처리 시스템이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 정수처리 시설인 혼화지에 응집제와 함께 다양한 비중을 가지고 있는 모래입자를 투입하여 응집제와 모래의 결합에 따른 탁도 제거효율과 슬러지의 양을 비교하였으며, 침전지내에 정류벽을 설치하여 침전지 초반에 가라앉을 수 있도록 유도하여 탁도 및 슬러지양을 비교하였다. 응집제만 투입한 경우보다 시료를 투입한 경우가 탁도제거율과 슬러지양이 상승하는 것을 볼 수 있으며 그중에서도 규사의 경우가 가장 많은 탁도제거율의 상승을 나타냈다. 또한 이중 정류벽을 설치하여 탁도 및 슬러지양을 측정한 결과 이중정류벽을 설치하지 않은 경우보다 탁도제거율 및 슬러지양 또한 높게 측정되었으며 슬러지의 양 또한 침전지 앞부분에 집중되는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 경우 상기 플럭의 질량이 증가하기 때문에 처리속도를 높이고, 체류시간을 줄이고, 처리를 효율적으로 안정되게 수행하는 것이 가능하다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 정수시설의 설치에 있어 시료와 이중정류벽을 함께 사용할 경우 응집제의 절감 또는 침전지의 컴팩트화를 가져올 것으로 예상된다.

Physical and chemical properties of artificial soil produced by firing process were analyzed and compared with normal dry field soil and soil quality standards. Material used for production was water and wastewater treatment sludge, chabizite, and lime. The mixed material was thermally treated in the firing kiln at about $300^{\circ}C$ and $1,000^{\circ}C$, respectively, as per designed process. General properties of the artificial soil were classified as sand by unified soil classification method and similar to the dry-field soil, and even soil conditioning effect were expected when it is mixed properly with normal soil. The artificial soil is high in pH and permeability compared to the dry-field soil. Heavy metal concentrations of the artificial soil met the soil quality standards for the farmland. Overall, the artificial soil was thought to be an appropriate soil which can be returned safely to the nature without significant adverse effect. The cost for the artificial soil production process needs to be lowered for practical application as a sludge treatment, therefore, commercializing of the artificial soil is under review.

This study has been assessed the influence of applying sewage sludge to soil amendments on the sorption properties, and leaching potential of three commonly used organophosphorus pesticides, Diazinon, Fenitrothion, and Chlorpyrifos. A sandy soil with a low content of organic carbon was treated with sewage sludge with a ratio sandy soil sludge ratio of 30:1. The sorption was determined with the batch equilibrium technique. The sorption isotherms could be described by Freundlich equation. The Freundlich constant, K value which measures sorption capacity, were 3.97, 9.94, 22.48 for Diazinon, Fenitrothion, Chlorpyrifos in non-amended soil. But in amended soil, K value was 12.58, 28.47, and 61.21 for Diazinon, Fenitrothion, and Chlorpyrifos. The overall effect of sewage sludge addition to soil was to increase pesticides adsorption, due to the high sorption capacity of the organic matter. The effect of sludge on the leaching of pesticides in the soil was studied using packed soil columns. Total recoveries of pesticides in soil and leachate with leaching in soil column, were in the range of about 73∼84%, was reduced with the passage of time. Diazinon moved more rapidly than Chlorpyrifos in the unamended soil due to greater sorption and lower water solubility of Chlorpyrifos. Total amounts of pesticides leached from the sewage sludge amended soils were significantly reduced when compared with unamended soils. This reduction may be mainly due to and increase in sorption in amended soils, as a consequence of the increase in the organic matter content.
