Behaviors of simple organic compound and granular sludge in an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor treating propionate at high ammonia nitrogen levels were investigated for 12 months. The UASB reactor achieved about 80% removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) at ammonia nitrogen concentration up to 6000 mg-N/L. At higher concentration of ammonia nitrogen, the propionate in the effluent increased whereas the acetate was very low. At ammonia nitrogen concentration of 8000 mg-N/L, the volatile suspended solids (VSS) increased sharply due probably to the decrease of the content of extracellular polymer (ECP) although methane production was very low. The specific methanogenic activity (SMA) using formate, acetate, and propionate as substrate to granules decreased as ammonia nitrogen concentration increased. The ammonia nitrogen concentration $I^{50}$, causing 50% inhibition of SMA were 2666, 4778 and 5572 mg-N/L, respectively. The kinetic coefficients of ammonia inhibition using formate, acetate, and propionate as substrate were 3.279, 0.999 and 0.609, respectively. The SMA using formate was severely affected by ammonia nitrogen than those using acetate and propionate. This result indicated that the hydrogenotrophic methanogens was most affected by ammonia nitrogen. Granules were mainly composed of microcolonies of methanothrix-like bacteria resembling bamboo-shape, and several other microcolonies including propionate degrader with juxtapositioned syntrophic associations between the hydrogen-producing acetogens and hydrogen-consuming methanogens.

Nitrogen components in liquid manure can reduce safety and quality of environment harmfully. To minimize the environmental risks of manure, understanding fate of manure in environment is necessary. This study aimed at investigating applicability of a simplified Level III fugacity model for simulating $NH_3-N$ component to analyze environmental fate and transport of $NH_3-N$ in liquid manure and to provide basis for improving management of N in the liquid manure system and for minimizing the environmental impacts of N. The model simulation conducted for four environmental compartments (air, water, soil, and rice plants) during rice-cropping to trace $NH_3-N$ component and provided applicability of the Level III fugacity model in studying the environmental fate of $NH_3-N$ in manure. Most of $NH_3-N$ was found in water body and in rice plants depending upon the physicochemical properties and proper removal processes. For more precise model results, the model is needed to modify with the detailed removal processes in each compartment and to collect proper and accurate information for input parameters. Further study should be about simulations of various N-typed fertilizers to compare with the liquid manure based on a modified and relatively simplified Level III fugacity model.

This study was conducted to develop a wastewater treatment system to remove organic matter, nitrate nitrogen, and phosphate ion in synthetic wastewater. COD was removed almost 100% by the oxidation reaction of HClO and nitrate nitrogen was reduced to ammonia by electrolysis treatment, but ammonia was reoxidized into nitrate nitrogen by HClO treatment. Ammonia was removed almost 100% by heating evaporation and no ammonia was reoxidized into nitrate by HClO treatment. Phosphate ion could be removed by precipitation treatment by forming metal complex according to pH. Through electrolysis treatment and HClO treatment, removal efficiencies of COD 99.5%, nitrogen 97.3% and phosphorus 91.5% were obtained.

도시화, 산업화로 인해 하수처리장 유입하수 내 질소 농도가 증가하면서 그에 따른 부영양화 발생, 수생태계에 독성을 미치는 등의 악영향 또한 증가하게 되었다. 하수 내 고농도 질소를 처리하기 위해 1990년 초 연구가 시작되어 현재 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 생물학적 질소 제거 공정은 산소공급과 외부탄소원 보충 과정에서 상당한 비용이 소요된다. 이와 같은 문제점이 대두됨에 따라 고도의 질소 제거 공정이 요구되면서, 경제적으로 개선이 이루어져 기존의 질산화·탈질 공정보다 효율적인 혐기성 암모늄 산화 공정(ANaerobic AMMonium OXidation, ANAMMOX)이 제안되었다. ANAMMOX 공정은 혐기성 조건 아래 전자공여체와 전자수용체로써 암모니아성 질소와 아질산성 질소를 이용해 질소가스 형태로 질소를 제거하는 공정이다. 질산화·탈질 공정과 비교했을 때, 폭기과정에서의 산소요구량 감소, 외부탄소원 불필요, 질소 제거 과정 단축 등의 장점을 가진다. 본 연구는 수처리공정에서의 ANAMMOX 공정의 적용 가능성을 확인하고, 암모니아성 질소대비 아질산성 질소 비율에 따른 Mainstream ANAMMOX 공정의 효율 비교를 통해 공정의 안정성과 높은 제거효율을 확보할 수 있는 NH₄⁺ 대비 NO₂^- 비율을 도출하는데 목적이 있다. 실험실 규모의 Mainstream ANAMMOX 반응조에 적용한 비율은 선행연구를 비롯한 화학양론식에서 제시된 비율을 바탕으로 산정하였다. 1.00부터 1.30의 전체적인 비율을 Initial과 Advanced 2개의 구간으로 나누어 운전한 결과, 각 구간의 NH₄⁺ 제거효율은 각각 58~86%, 94~99%였다. NH₄⁺ 대비 NO₂^- 비율이 증가함에 따라 공정의 안정성이 확보되고, NH₄⁺ 및 총질소(TN) 제거효율이 증가하는 경향이 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 수처리공정에서의 안정적인 ANAMMOX 공정 적용을 유도하고, ANAMMOX 공정의 성능개선을 도모하는 연구의 기초로 활용될 수 있다.

황복(Takifugus obscurus)은 주로 황해에 분포하며 봄철에 서해안으로 흐르는 금강, 한강 및 임진강으로 소상하여 강의 중상류에서 산란하는 소하성어류이다. 특히 황복은 바다와 하천을 오고 가는 관계로 해수뿐만 아니라 민물에서도 양식이 가능한 어종으로 다른 소하성어류와 마찬가지로 염분변화에 따른 삼투조절능력이 매우 우수할 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구는 황복이 급격히 염분을 달리하였을 때 나타나는 생리적 반응을 산소소비량과 암모니아 질소배설량의 변화로 염분변화에 따른 생리적 적응력을 살펴보고자 하였다. 본 연구에 사용한 황복은 전장 10cm(체중 15~25g) 전후의 치어로서 염분 32, 22, 12, 및 2 ppt로 조절되어 있는 FRP수조(500 L)에서 2개월간 사육 후, 각기 염분을 달리한(32, 22, 12, 2 ppt) 호흡측정 장치에 황복을 수용하여 산소소비량과 암모니아 질소배설량을 측정하였다. 한편, 사육 시스템내에서의 산소소비와 암모니아 질소의 배설경향을 보기 위하여 염분 16ppt에서 산소소비량과 암모니아 질소배설량을 25시간 관찰하였다. 산소소비 경향은 대체로 염분이 낮을수록 높은 산소소비 경향을 보였는데, 실험염분 32ppt에서는 2~32ppt 사육군 모두 다른 실험염분(22, 12, 2 ppt) 사육군보다 안정되고 낮은 산소소비량을 나타내었다. 그리고 실험염분 22, 12 및 2 ppt에서는 각기 실험염분과 동일한 염분 사육군에서 가장 높은 산소소비량을 나타낸 반면 32 ppt 사육군은 모든 실험염분에서 가장 낮은 산소소비량을 나타내었다. 암모니아 질소의 배설경향은 실험염분 2 ppt를 제외하고는 2 ppt 사육군에서 가장 높은 질소 배설율을 보였으나, 실험염분 2 ppt에서는 오히려 현저히 낮은 암모니아 질소 배설율을 나타내었다. 저 염분(2, 12 ppt)에서 사육한 황복은 22 및 32 ppt에서 사육된 황복에 비해 저염분에 노출될 경우 삼투조절을 위해 암모니아 배설에 상당한 차이를 보였다. 사육 시스템내에서 조사된 산소소비와 암모니아 질소 배설경향은 섭이와 관련하여 일간리듬을 보였는데, 산소소비는 섭이 3시간 후에 최고를 보였으며 암모니아 질소 배설은 섭이 4시간 후에 각각 최고를 나타내었다.

It is very important to remove fluoride ion before treating semiconductor wastewater containing high concentration of ammonia, phosphates, and fluoride ions by struvite formation. Calcium ion was generally added for the removal of fluoride ion. However, calcium ions remained after removal of fluoride ion can deteriorate the performance of struvite crystalization. It should be removed completely before struvite formation. In this study, the effect of fluoride and calcium ion concentration on the struvite crystalization was investigated. Removal efficiencies of ortho-phosphate with struvite formation were more abruptly decreased than those of ammonium nitrogen, as increase of fluoride ion concentration in synthetic wastewater. The structures of struvite formed in synthetic wastewater containing calcium ion of up to 500 mg/L were identical. Purity of struvite was deteriorated as increase of calcium ion over 500 mg/L. Removal efficiencies of ammonium nitrogen were more decreased than those of phosphate ions as increase of cacium ion in synthetic wastewater.

Ammoniac nitrogen excretion is not able to be removed in ocean fish farm. It is the reason for fish being dead in large quantities or declining feeding activity that ammoniac nitrogen is not removed efficiently in ocean fish farm. Because of declining with feeding activity, it is true that feed is wasted for the present. To solve this problem, NH3, one of environment factors in ocean fish farm, monitoring system is suggested to be formed in this paper.

In this study, the removal characteristic of ammonia nitrogen and behavior of nitrogen was investigated using Leclercia adecarboxylata, which was derived from the culture contaminated by ammonia nitrogen of high concentration. The method of ammonia nitrogen removal was not biological nitrification and denitrification but elimination of nutrient salt with internal synthesis of microorganisms which use ammonia nitrogen as substrate. L. adecarboxylata(one of ammonia synthesis microorganisms) was highly activated and showed the most high removal efficiency in free salt condition but the removal efficiency decreased badly in salt concentration of more than 4%. About 80 mg/L of $NH_3-N$ was mostly removed within 20 hours and 500 mg/L of $NH_3-N$ showed less then removal efficiency of 50% because carbon source was not enough. However, ammonium nitrogen concentration was decreased again when the carbon source was inserted additionally thus, ammonium nitrogen removal efficiency by L. adecarboxylata, was related to amount of carbon source. pH decreased from 8.0 to 6.36 according to growth of L. adecarboxylata. Concentration of nitrite nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen did not increase and TKN concentration showed no variation while ammonia nitrogen was removed by L. adecarboxylata. In addition to, when content of protein in organic nitrogen was measured, protein was not detected at the beginning of microorganism synthesis but protein of 193.1 mg/L was detected after 48 hours. Hence, ammonium nitrogen was not decomposed as nitrate nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen but synthesized by L. adecarboxylata, which has excellent ability of nitrogen synthesis and can threat ammonia nitrogen of high concentration in wastewater.
