2050년까지 탄소중립 사회구현을 위한 방안을 모색하기 위한 논의가 활발히 이루어지고 있으며, 이에 수소도시 실현을 통한 화석연료와 탄소배출을 줄이는 방법들이 주목받고 있다. 그린수소가스의 생산 및 운송, 저장과 가스형태의 수소를 액화 수소로 압축시키는데 드는 막대한 에너지가 소비되는 문제점에 대한 대안책으로 암모니아를 캐리어로 이용하여 운송 및 저장하고 수소를 생산하는 방식이 널리 이용되고 있으며, 효율 향상을 위한 추가 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 또한, 중국에 대한 우리나라의 요소수 수입 의존도가 높음에 따라 요소수 주요성분인 암모니아와 탄산가스를 합성한 요소수 생산 방식에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 하지만, 현재 산업계에서 석탄과 같은 석유자원에서부터 암모니아를 추출하는 방식이 가장 널리 적용되고 있다. 이와 같은 암모니아 생산에 대한 석유자원 의존도를 낮추기 위한 방안에 대한 도출 및 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 이와 같은 상황에 맞춰 본 연구에서는 생활하수로부터 암모니아를 추출하는 방법으로서 통합형 막증류 시스템에 연구하고자 한다. 분뇨, 음식물 폐기물 침출수 등 유기성 폐기물의 수집, 운송 및 처리에서 발생되는 생활하수에는 암모니아성 질소 및 탄소가 다량 포함되어 있어 이를 추출하여 순수한 암모니아 생산에 대해 석유자원을 대체할 수 있는 대안으로서의 효용성을 갖고 있다. 하지만, 이와같은 생활하수는 암모니아성 질소 이외 성분들이 고농도로 포함되어 있어 암모니아 생산에 대한 원료만을 선택적으로 분리하는데 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 생활하수에서 암모니아를 선택적으로 분리하는 방법으로서 막증류(Membrane Distillation, MD) 기반의 통합 암모니아 분리기술을 개발하고 이에 대한 적용 가능성과 효율 향상에 대해 평가 하였다. 또한, 암모니아와 탄산가스 합성을 통한 요소수 생산 방법에 대한 연구를 진행하였다.

암모니아는 murine과 sheep의 난자의 체외 배양 시 배 발달과 착상, 태아 발달에 영향을 미친다고 보고되어져 있다. 본 연구는 한우 난포의 크기에 따른 암모니아 농도 측정과 체외 성숙 시간에 따라 발생되는 암모니아의 농도가 배 발달율에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 도축장 유래 한우 난소의 직경(3 ㎜∼30 ㎜)난포에서 난포액을 채취하였으며, 그리고 각각의 체외 성숙 시간에 따라 배양액을 회수하였다. 암모니아 농도 측정은 ammonia Kit를 이용 spectrophotometer로 630 ㎚에 측정하였다. (중략)

It is a time consuming work to identify the inhibition of unknown chemicals or industrial wastewater. Thus it is needed to establish a fast assay tool for finding a toxicant source. Biomass activity and ammonia inhibition were measured by DHAINT method. Ammonia inhibition tests were comprised of total ammonia inhibition and free ammonia inhibition. Those inhibitions were carried out by nitrifier and heterotroph each other with nitrifier inhibitor. The ammonia inhibition was proportional to an amount of total ammonia and pH increase. It meaned that a free ammonia played a key role for ammonia inhibition. however both total ammonia and free ammonia should be considered for an accurate assay of the ammonia inhibition. Nitrifier was more sensitive than heterotroph when the ammonia concentration above 3.000mg/L.

An electrolyzed-acidic water treatment was investigated as a methods for removing ammonia, which is a cause of odor in life environment. The prepared electrolyzed-acidic water was found out as stable solvent capable of neutralizing weak alkaline ammonia by measuring changes in pH and ORP. It was found out that ammonia was removed from the mixture solution of electrolyzed-acidic water and ammonia water by the UV-vis absorbance analysis and electrochemical open-circuit potential measurement. The neutralized ammonia by electrolyzed-acidic water and effectively removed odor was measured using ammonia gas detecter. Consequently, we recommend the electrolyzed-acidic water can effectively and safely remove ammonia in eco-friendly.

A series of experiment was conducted to investigate the relationship between ammoia removal rate and ammonia loading rates in seawater filtering system using rotating biological contactor (RBC). In this experiment, RBC system was consisted of rotating polyvinyl film disks, which provided $12 m^2$ of total effective surface area in $0.075 m^3$ of volume. $NH_4Cl$ was added by $10{\~}150 g$ as a ammonia nitrogen source to determine ammonia removal rate in RBC system. Relationship between time required for ammonia removal (y: hour) and nitrogen inputted ($x: NH_4-N mg/l$) in RBC system was as followed: $y=3.51+7.76 lnx (r^2=0.936)$. At ammonia concentration $2 mg/l$, it took 10 hour for removal of ammonia in the RBC system. However, at ammonia concentration of $5 and 16.5 mg/l$, it took 16 and 27 hours, respectively. There was a decreasing tencency of an increasing ammonia in the rearing water. Finally, the ammonia removal rate in the RBC system increased with the rise of total ammonia concentration up to $16.5 mg/l$.

The hybrid system composed of a photocatalytic reactor and a biofilter was operated under various operating conditions in order to treat malodorous waste air containing ammonia which is a major air pollutant emitted from composting factories and many publicly owned treatment works. Total ammonia removal efficiency of the hybrid system was maintained to be ca. 80% even though its inlet loads were increased at a higher operating stage according to an operating schedule of the hybrid system. The ammonia removal efficiency of photocatalytic reactor was decreased from 65% to 22% as ammonia inlet loads to photocatalytic reactor were increased. In spite of same inlet loads of ammonia to the photocatalytic reactor, the ammonia removal efficiency of photocatalytic reactor with lower ammonia concentration of fed-waste air was higher than that with higher ammonia concentration of fed-waste air. To the contrary, during the first half of the hybrid system operation the ammonia removal efficiency of a biofilter was quite suppressed while, despite of increased ammonia inlet loads, the ammonia removal efficiency of the biofilter was continuously increased to 78% and reached the ammonia removal efficiency similar to what Lee et al. attained. The maximum ammonia elimination capacity of the photocatalytic reactor was observed to be ca. 16 g-N/$m^3$/h. In an incipient stage of hybrid system run, the ammonia elimination capacity of the biofilter showed little sensitivity against ammonia inlet loads to the hybrid system. However, in the 2nd half of its run, the ammonia elimination capacity of the biofilter was increased abruptly in case of high ammonia inlet loads to the hybrid system. In 6th stage of hybrid system run, total ammonia inlet load attained at ca. 80 g-N/$m^3$/h corresponding to 16 g-N/$m^3$/h of ammonia elimination capacity of the photocatalytic reactor. Then, the remaining ammonia inlet load to the 2nd and main process of the biofilter and its elimination capacity was expected and shown to be ca 64 g-N/$m^3$/h and ca 48 g-N/$m^3$/h, respectively. The ammonia elimination capacity of the biofilter was close to 1,200 g-N/$m^3$/day of the maximum elimination capacity of the investigation performed by Kim et al.

Nitrogen compounds are one of the major pollutants which cause eutrophication problems of the river or lake and red tides problems of the ocean. Currently available technologies for the removal of nitrogen compounds are mostly biological treatment. However, biological treatment is only effective for the wastewater which contains low concentration of nitrogen compounds. Leachate from solid waste landfill or industrial wastewater which contains high concentration of nitrogen can not be effectively treated by most of the currently available biological treatment technologies. With this connection. the objective of this study is to examine the applicability of ammonia stripping technology for the removal of high concentration of ammonia nitrogen compounds of the leachate from solid waste landfill. It can be concluded that ammonia stripping technology which was placed before the biological treatment process was very effective for the removal of high concentration of ammonium compounds. The chemical cost for the ammonia stripping was 16 percent higher than MLE process, so other methods like sludge recycling are needed for the reduction of operation cost. Further details are discussed in this paper.

As the emission limits for NOx in power generation facilities were strengthened, HRSGs installed in the 1990s became necessary to install additional DeNOx system. However, since there is no space in the HRSG for installing the entire the catalyst and ammonia injection grid, as an alternative, the catalyst was installed inside of the HRSG and the ammonia injection device was installed in the exhaust duct of the gas turbine. Experiments were conducted in horizontal HRSG of Incheon combined cycle power plant. Experimental results show that the ammonia injection method in the gas turbine exhaust duct is 1.2 times higher than the HRSG internal ammonia injection method. However when operating a HRSG for 30 years as its life span, ammonia injection method in the gas turbine exhaust duct is more economical than the cost of new HRSG construction.

퇴비호 과정중에 암모니아 휘산은 퇴비 내의 질소성분을 유출시키고 있는 동시에 악취를 발생한다는 측면에서 바람직하지 못하다. 아직까지 암모니아 휘산을 방지할 수 있는 방법은 개발되어 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 퇴비화 과정에서 온도, 암모니아휘산및 엔탈피의 변화를 분석하였다. 퇴비화 온도가 높을 때는 암모니아 휘산도 많이 발생하였으나 퇴비화 15일 후 온도가 63$^{\circ}C$로 하강함에 따라 암모니아 휘산은 줄어들기 시작하여 온도가 6$0^{\circ}C$이하로 떨어지는 21일부터는 거의 발생하지 않았다. 퇴비화 온도에 의하여 진행과정과 암모니아 휘산의 추이를 추정할 수있었다.

Lab-scale biofilter was studied for the simultaneous removal of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in gas mixtures. Compost and polyurethane foam were used as packing materials (50 : 50) and activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant was innoculated initially. When tested under varying inlet concentrations and empty bed residence time(EBRT), up to 80 ppmv of ammonia and 40 ppmv of hydrogen sulfide could be removed completely at an EBRT of 30 sec. The pH was found to be the key factor governing the biofilter performance.
