The objectives of this study are summarized with two. The one is to remove of $COD_{Cr}$, color and turbidity with coagulation and ozonation in nonbiodegradable landfill leachate, the other is to compare of water qualities with pre-ozonation and post-ozonation. The results are summarized as follows ; 1) 90 minutes ozonation with $75mgO_3/min$($4.5gO_3/hr$) was conducted at pH 4,7, 10 to remove $COD_{Cr}$. Removal efficiencies were investigated with 48.2%, 52.6%, and 62.3% respectively. As increasing pH, $COD_{Cr}$ removal efficiencies were increased, it was considered that hydroxyl radical($OH{\cdot}$) which strongly oxdize and nonselectively react with organic compounds, was rapidly produced by ozone self-decomposition at high pH. 2) Alum, ferric chloride and ferrous sulfate were used for coagulation as inorganic coagulant. Ferric chloride was investigated with optimal coagulant, and it removed $COD_{Cr}$ about 12.0% at pH5 and dosage of $2,000m{\ell}/{\ell}$. Cation(C-101P), anion(A-601P) and nonion(SC-050) were tested to remove organic pollutants in landfill leachate. Cation(C-101P) was investigated with the most effective organic coagulant, and removal efficiency of $COD_{Cr}$ was 19.8% at pH5 and dosage of $100m{\ell}/{\ell}$. 3) Color and turbidity were removed up to 88.6%, 97.0% at pH10, when contacted 90 minutes with ozone, respectively. These removal efficiencies were much higher than those of $COD_{Cr}$ and $COD_{Mn}$. It was considered that ozone could oxdize the triggering materials of color and turbidity selectively and preferentially. 4) $COD_{Cr}$, color and turbidity were more effectively removed with pre-ozonation than post-ozonation about 8%, 3.5% and 1% respectively. These results were well corresponed with other's studies that pre-ozonation will increase the effect of coagulation.

일반적으로 오존(O$_3$)은 친전자성 및 친핵성반응 때문에 탄소-탄소 이중결합을 가진 분자들을 떼어놓을 수 있는 매우 강한 산화능력을 갖고 있는 것으로서 살균, 맛과 냄새의 조절, 색도 제거 등에 이용되어왔다. 그러나, 오존은 대기 중에 미반응상태로 잔류하는 경우에는 광화학 스모그를 발생시키는 주된 요인이 되고 있으며, 강력한 산화력을 지니고 있기 때문에 0.1-l ppm의 범위에서 인체에 노출되면 두통, 목 건조증, 점막손상과 같은 호흡기 질환 등의 원인이 될 뿐만 아니라 악취를 유발하여 불쾌감을 야기한다. (중략)

Unpleasant tastes and odors in drinking water cause same problems for water utilities across Korea. Even though tastes and odors do not create health problems, they are main concerns for consumers who determine the safety of their drinking water. In this study, two different odor producing compounds(geosmin 2-MIB) in the Nakdong river water and rapid sand filtered rater were treated by advanced oxidation of $O_3/H_2O_2$ process. The experimental results showed that the removal efficiency of geosmin with the use of 5 mg/L of $O_3$ and $H_2O_2$ was higher than efficiency with the use of $O_3$ alone for both the raw water and the sand filtered water. And in general, the removal efficiency of geosmin was higher than 2-MIB in the sand filtered water. Under the range of $O_3$ concentration $0.5\sim2.0$ mg/L, the removal rate constants(k) of geosmin for the raw and sand filtered waters, and the one of 2-MIB in the sand filtered water were increased rapidly as doses of $O_3$, and $H_2O_2$, increased. The removal rate constants(k) do not increase any more when $H_2O_2/O_3$ ratio increases above the optimum ratio. The optimum ratio of $H_2O_2/O_3$, dose was $1.0\sim2.0$ for both geosmin and 2-MIB. The removal rate constant(k) becomes lower when OH radical consuming materials are present in raw water. The half-life of geosmin decreased rapidly as the $O_3$ and $H_2O_2$ doses increase in the sand filtered water. The half life decreased about 8.5 times with the use of 2 mg/L of $O_3$ and 10 mg/L of $H_2O_2$ than with the use of 2 mg/L of $O_3$ alone for the sand filtered water.

This study was conducted with the experiment of solubilisation of excess sludge by microbubble ozone process. To improve ozone contact efficiency, microbubble ozones which its diameter were the avearge 30 ${\mu}m$, microbubble size less than 40 ${\mu}m$ occupied about over 90% of all. In treating sludge using microbubble ozones, in case microbubble ozones are injected at microbubble ozone dosage of 0.34 g $O_3/g$ SS or less regardless of sludge concentration, microbubble ozone consumption rate was found to be 100% with no emission of waste ozones. In treating sludges by each concentration, in case the initial SS concentration of sludge is set to 6,447 mg/L, 5,557 mg/L, 3,180 mg/L, 1,092 mg/L and 515 mg/L, the amount of removed SS tended to increase with increase in initial SS concentration for the same microbubble ozone dosage, and treatment of sludge with high initial SS concentration was effective in raising the oxidation efficiency of microbubble ozones. On the other hand, as a result of reviewing acid, alkali and microbubble ozone treatment as composite treatment of sludge, use of acid treatment for the pre-treatment of microbubble ozone was more effective than alkali treatment, and in case of treatment at microbubble ozone dosage 0.05g $O_3/g$ SS with the concentration of sulfuric acid infused in the sludge, the amount of removed SS, 153.9 g, was 1.9 times more than 81.2 g the amount of single treatment of microbubble ozone.

This study was conducted to assess the removal characteristics of taste and odor causing compounds(2-MIB and geosmin) and micro organic matters. GAC and BAC process consisting of Ozone/AOP and activated carbon was applied. As a result, the influent concentration of 2-MIB 159 ng/L and geosmin 371 ng/L were removed 42% and 86% by ozone 1.0 mg/L, and 58%, 90% by AOP(ozone 1.0 mg/L + $H_2O_2$ 0.5 mg/L). Also it showed less than 2 ng/L effluent in GAC process and 99.8% removal efficiency in BAC process. Therefore, BAC process combining ozone/AOP and GAC is effective for persistent removal of micro organic matters, taste and odor. It is needed for optimization of Ozone/AOP process according to influent concentrations.

오존은, 그 강력한 산화력에 의하여 살균, 탈취, 탈색과 유기물 제거 등의 효과를 복합적으로 얻을 수 있고 또한 신속하게 산소로 분해되어 잔류하지 않기 때문에 환경개선에 사용하기에 이상적인 물질이다. 미쓰비시전기에서는 이러한 오존의 이점에 착안하여 1970년부터 오존발생기와 오존처리설비의 개발, 제품화를 추진하여 왔다. 오존에 의한 고도처리가 널리 일반에게 인정되어 그 수요가 높아지고 있는 오늘날에 있어서도 보다 많은 오존설비의 보급을 위하여 오존기술의 개발에 힘쓰고있다. 본고에서는 상하수도 오존고도처리의 기술동향의 일부로 시도되고 있는 다음의 세 가지 내용을 소개한다.

In order to evaluate a removal characteristic of diclofenac, ibuprofen and naproxen by oxidizing agents, $Cl_2,\;O_3$ and $O_3/H_2O_2$ are used as oxidants in this study. In case of that $Cl_2$ is used for oxidizing pharmaceuticals, ibuprofen is not removed entirely at $Cl_2$ dose range of 0.5~5.0 mg/L for 60 minutes, however, removal tendency of diclofenac and naproxen are so obviously at $Cl_2$ dose higher than 0.5 mg/L. In addition, as $Cl_2$ dose and contact time are increased, the removal rate of diclofenac and naproxen is enhanced. When $O_3$ is used as oxidizing agent, ibuprofen is not eliminated at $O_3$ dose range of 0.2~5.0 mg/L. On the contrary, 72~100% of diclofenac and 49~100% of naproxen are removed at $O_3$ dose of 0.2~5.0 mg/L. From experiments using $O_3/H_2O_2$ as an oxidant, we can find that $O_3/H_2O_2$ is much more effective than $O_3$ only for removal of diclofenac and naproxen. Moreover, the efficiency is raised according to increase of $H_2O_2$ dose, however, experiments using $O_3/H_2O_2$ show that oxidation of pharmaceuticals is less effective as $H_2O_2$ to $O_3$ ratio increased to above approximately 1.0. On reaction rate constant and half-life of diclofenac, ibuprofen and naproxen depending on $Cl_2$, $O_3$ and $O_3/H_2O_2$ dose, an oxidation of pharmaceuticals by $Cl_2$ and $O_3$ particularly has a comparatively high reaction rate constant and short half-life comparing $O_3/H_2O_2$. From above results, we can fine that diclofenac and naproxen can be easily eliminated in oxidation processes.

In order to purify the waste water containing natural fatty oil, hydroxy radical and/or ozone are used to remove the fatty oil dispersed in the waste water. The fatty oil is decomposed by oxidation reaction through hydroxy radical and ozone, and eliminated as a function of first order reaction. It is clearly confirmed that the fatty oil in waste water can be effectively removed much more in the use of both hydroxy radical and ozone than only hydroxy radical as an oxydant. In addition, the decomposition chemical reaction mechanism of the fatty oil by hydroxy radical and ozone is proposed.

In this study, we report on the catalyst process installed in conjunction with a wet plasma electrostatic precipitator to remove the oil mist and fine dust emitted from large-size grill restaurants. The multi-stage catalyst module reduced odor through catalytic reaction of acetaldehyde on catalysts even at an ambient temperature with ozone as an oxidant readily produced in a wet plasma electrostatic precipitator. Two types of manganese-based catalysts, $Mn_2O_3$ and $CuMnO_x$ were fabricated by extrusion molding for structured catalysts in practical applications, and the optimum conditions for high removal efficiencies of acetaldehyde and ozone were determined. When two optimized catalysts were applied in a two-stage catalyst module, the removal efficiency of acetaldehyde and ozone were ${\geq}85%$ and 100% respectively at the space velocity of $10,000h^{-1}$ and the reaction temperature of $100^{\circ}C$.

Ozonation is a disinfection technique of harmful mi-crobes commonly used in the treatment of drinking water. And Biological Activated Carbon (BAC) treatment also provides numerous benefits for drinking water utilities, including removal of micro- pollutants, improved treatment processes. The multiful-stage ozonation and BAC play roles as effective methods for removing several materials in raw water. Water quality variation in Nak dong river and the removal efficiency of viruses by ozonation-BAC process were investigated on pilot scale. During the period of survey, most of water quality parameters including $NH_{4}^{+}-N$ were highly improved after passing through the BAC. The removal efficiency of poliovirus type III in water treatment process using pilot-plant,$ 99.6\% $ of viruses were removed by pre-ozonation, sedimentation and sand filteration process, $ 100\% $ were removed after in BAC filteration step. In the removal survey of viruses by ozonation, ap-proximately $ 61.1\% $ or polioviruses were inactivated by ozone of 0.4 mg/l within 5 min. and $ 100\% $ were inactivated by ozone of 0.8 mg/l over 10 min.
