유역의 경사가 비교적 급하고, 소규모 축산농가의 미처리된 축산폐수 및 농경지 배수, 산재된 마을하수 등 비점오염원의 유출이 강우시 집중적으로 이루어지는 중산간 농업용 저수지의 수질개선을 위한 공법으로 부영양화된 충남 아산 마산저수지의 유입부에 조성한 저류지를 이용한 수질개선효과 및 물질분해자로서 미생물학적 특성을 2000년부터 2002년까지 3년간 연구함으로서 향후 유사한 농업용저수지의 수질개선 방안으로 실용화 가능성을 모색하고자 하였다. 그 결과 수질정화효과는 총질소와 총인 등 영양염류의 정화효과가 비교적 우수하게 나타났으며, 유기오염물질로서 BOD, COD, SS 등은 평균 수질정화효과는 (-)의 값을 보여주었으나, 강우기에는 정화효율이 높게 나타났다 또한, 저류지의 물질 침전기능 외 오염물질의 활발한 분해작용을 살펴보고자 세균 분포 특성을 조사한 결과 유입수와 저류지, 저수지 각각의 수체에서 조사된 총세균수 및 총세균수에 대한 진정세균수의 비율이 유입수<저류지<유출수의 순으로 나타나 저류지의 유기물질 분해 활성이 높음을 보여주고 있다. 따라서 저수지 유입부에 조성한 저류지의 수질개선효과는 강우시 입자성 유기물질의 효과적 제거 뿐만아니라 영양염류의 제거효과, 특히 질소의 제거효과가 높은 정화기구로서 설치비용이 적고, 유지관리가 간단한 특성을 살려 유사한 중규모 농업용저수지의 수질개선 기법으로 널리 활용할 가치가 있음으로 사료된다.

This study was performed to develop a new process technology for advanced wastewater treatment using a modified Rotating Activated Bacillus Contactor (RABC) process that adopts anoxic-oxic suspended biomass tanks to enhance nutrients removal. A modified lab-scale RABC process was applied to examine its applicability and to obtain the design factors for the optimum operation of the system. The modified RABC process showed a little more stable and high nutrients removal efficiency than the prototype RABC process: about 70% of nitrogen and 55% of phosphorous removal when the low organic loading (influent COD 200mg/L). However, the processing efficiency of nutrients removal rates was enhanced to great extent when high organic loading: nitrogen 90% and phosphorous 85% (influent COD 500mg/L). High organic loading stimulated extremely good biomass attachment on the reticular carrier RABC stage and the excellent nutrients removal, nevertheless with almost no offensive odor.

Since swine wastewater contains high concentrations of nutrients and heavy metals, it deteriorates water quality when discharged. Compared to conventional methods, bioremediation can be a promising method for its treatment. Specifically, microalgae have the potential to remove these pollutants. In this study, the removal of nutrients (nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)) and heavy metals (copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn)) from swine wastewater by Ankistrodesmus bibraianus was evaluated and the organism's optimal growth conditions were investigated. The optimal growth conditions were established at 28℃, pH 7, and light and dark cycles of 14:10 h. The removal efficiencies of N and P by a single treatment (500, 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 mg L^-1) ranged from 22.9 to 80.6% and from 11.9 to 50.0%, respectively. The removal efficiencies of N and P in the binary treatments ranged from 16.4 to 58.3% and from 7.80 to 49.8%, respectively. The removal efficiencies of Cu and Zn by a single treatment(10, 30, and 50 mg L^-1) ranged from 15.5 to 81.5% and from 6.28 to 34.3%, respectively. Similarly, the removal efficiencies of Cu and Zn in the binary treatments ranged from 16.7 to 74.5% and from 5.58 to 27.5%, respectively. In addition, the study showed the optimal growth conditions for microalgae and the removal efficiency of nutrients (N and P) and heavy metals (Cu and Zn), which could be applied to swine wastewater. Based on the results in this study, it appears that Ankistrodesmus bibraianus could be used for the removal of nutrients and heavy metals present in swine wastewater.

The adaptability of earthworm casts produced form the waste sludge of pulp and paper plants for a biocarrier used in the advanced wastewater treatment was investigated. Removal efficiencies of nutrients in the activated sludge technology without carrier were compared with those treated with carrier made of casts under the different conditions such as the composition of the input and kinds of carrier. When the waste water was treated in the activated sludge technology without carriers, removal efficiencies of T-P and T-N were average values of 31% and 52%, respectively. On the contrary, pellet type carrier and pack type carrier increased the removal efficiencies of T-P and T-N by 1.3~1.4 and 1.9~2.0 times, respectively. At the same time, the high removal of T-P and T-N were observed irrespective of the types of carrier in which many kinds of microorganisms were grown. The difference in the removal efficiencies of BOD and COD between the treatment with and without carrier was negligible. According to this research, the carrier made of casts was thought to be highly applicable in the advanced wastewater treatment.

Salt accumulation in the plastic film house soils under continuous cultivation condition causes problems such as salt damages to plants, nitrate accumulation in vegetables, groundwater contamination, etc. due to excess application of fertilizers. Objective of this research was to find an optimum adsorbent to reduce salt concentration in the soil solution of plastic film house soils, where crop injuries have been observed due to the salt accumulation. The soils were significantly high in available P $(1,431{\sim}6,516mg\;kg^{-1}),\;NO_3-N\;(117.60{\sim}395.73mg\;kg^{-1})$, exchangeable Ca $(4.06{\sim}11.07\;cmol_c\;kg^{-1})$ and Mg $(2.59{\sim}18.76\;cmol_c\;kg^{-1})$, as compared to those of the average upland soils in Korea. Soils were treated with each of adsorbent such as ion-exchange resin, zeolite, rice bran, etc. at 2% level and prepared into saturated-paste samples. After equilibrium, soil solution was vacuum-extracted from the soil and measured for changes of the pH, EC, and concentrations of $Ca^{2+},\;Mg^{2+},\;K^+,\;Na^+,\;{NH_4}^+,\;{PO_4}^{3-}\;and\;{NO_3}^-$. Rice bran effectively removed ${PO_4}^{3-}\;and\;{NO_3}^-$ in the soil solution up to 100%. Efficiency was decreased in the orders of rice bran > ion-exchange resin > zeolite. Removal efficiencies of zeolite and ion-exchange resin for $Ca^{2+}$ were ranged from 1 to 65% and from 7 to 61%, respectively. Ion-exchange resin was also effective for removing $Mg^{2+},\;K^+,\;Na^+,\;and\;{NH_4}^+$. Overall results demonstrated that rice bran and ion-exchange resin could be applicable for salt accumulated soil to remove the respective anion and cation.

담수호 및 농업용저수지의 유입수는 일반적으로 다유량 저농도의 특성을 갖고 있으며, 특히 강우시에는 유역의 노면에 집적된 비점오염물질이 넓은 면적에서 폭넓게 유출되어 유입되고 있어 기존의 하수처리공법에서와 같이 한곳에 모아 처리한다는 것은 현실적으로 어려움이 따른다. 넓은 유역을 갖는 수체에 적용될 수 있는 공법은 가급적 유지관리가 용이하고, 특히 호소의 주오염 특성인 부영양화 억제를 위한 질소 인 등의 영양 염류를 효과적으로 제거 할 수 있는 수질정화용 인공습지가 많이 검토되고 있다. 인공습지는 습지의 기능 중 수질정화 기능을 극대화 한 것으로 초기에는 도시하수유출 수의 처리를 위하여 사용되었으며, 점차 유기물의 부하농도가 높은 농업배수(축산 등)에 이용되기 시작 하였다. 강우 유출수, 도시하수, 농업배수, 광산 폐수 등의 점 비점오염물질을 저감하기 위한 수질개선시설로 적용이 점차 늘어나고 있다. 최근에는 강우유출과 같은 유출수의 수질을 관리하기 위한 기법으로 인공습지의 사용이 늘고 있다. 본고에서는 한국농어촌공사에서 수행한 습지관련 연구와 자료수집결과 등을 종합하여 인공습지의 기본적인 설계방안을 제시하고자 하였다.

Biological nutrient removal(BNR) process used in this study, which was packed with EPS(expanded polystylene) media, has more many advantages in aspect of reducing hydraulic retention time(HRT) of the process and having less effect of temperature in the winter season than commercial process in the present. Bench-scale study was performed using domestic wastewater. In the results, it was observed that the T-N removal efficiencies in HRT 6 hr and HRT 4 hr were 55% and 51%, respectively, showing the small reduction (about 4%) of T-N removal efficiency according to shortening of HRT. In comparison of T-N removal characteristic in summer and winter seasons, it showed that T-N removal efficiencies in summer and winter seasons were 65% and 54%, respectively, showing the 11% lower T-N removal efficiency in winter season than in summer season due to deterioration of nitrification in winter season. In the studies of influent loading rate and C/N ratio, the process showed stable effluent quality under the condition of broad influent loading rate and C/N ratio. Therefore, it is anticipated that the developed process in this study could be applicable to small wastewater treatment plant in nutrient removal.
