The Effects of operating parameters such as initial pH, gaseous ozone concentration, supplied gas flow rate on dissolved ozone concentration and phenol degradation in ozone contact reactor were investigated. Dissolved ozone concentrations were saturated to constant values after a certain ozone contact time. The saturation values were influenced by experimental parameters. Dissolved ozone concentration decreased with the increase of initial pH because the ozone is unstable in high pH regions. The gaseous ozone concentration in a constant gas supply affected the saturation concentration of dissolved ozone and the injection rate of gas with a constant ozone concentration determined the rate to reach dissolved ozone saturation. Effects of operating parameters on phenol degradation were closely related with those of parameters on dissolved ozone concentration. Phenol degradation was enhanced by the increase of initial pH, because the degradation of dissolved ozone gave birth to free radicals which have much higher reactivity with phenol. Increase of gaseous ozone concentration and gas flow rate promoted the phenol degradation through the generation of dissolved ozone which plays the role in phenol degradation. The injection of methanol deteriorated the phenol degradation through the scavenging effect on OH radicals.

본 연구는 오존수 제조장치에 인젝터를 이용한 오존 주입방식을 도입하여 소형화, 저전력화를 실현하고자 하였다. 오존발생기, 물-오존 혼합기(인젝터), 오존용해조, 배오존 처리기로 구성된 시스템을 제작하여 인젝터 주입방식에 의한 오존수 제조장치의 오존 용해특성과 그 적용성을 검토하였다. 오존 용해 특성으로 물-공기량에 따른 인젝터 성능, 용해조에서의 오존 용해능 등을 검토하였다. 인젝터 방식은 기존의 가압용해방식에 비하여 저농도 용해능을 보였으나, 인젝터 내부의 물-오존 접촉효율이 높아 평형농도에 도달되는 시간이 단축됨을 확인하였다. 제조된 오존수의 적용 효용성은 용존오존의 잔류시간과 미생물 살균능 검사를 통하여 실시하였다. 횡형식 인젝터 시스템에 의해 용해된 용존오존의 잔류시간이 기존의 가압용해방식에 비하여 다소 짧았으나 미생물의 살균능에는 크게 차이가 나지 않았다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of ozonation as pretreatment on the removal of dissolved or biodegradable organic matter(DOM or BOM), the variance of DOM fractionation, and microbial regrowth by pilot-scale granular activated carbon processes in which adsorption and biodegradability was proceeding due to long time operation. Regardless of point of ozonation applied, GAC processes with ozonation(i.e., Ozonation combined with GAC Filter-adsorber; Pre O$_3$ + F/A, Ozonation combined with GAC adsorber; Post O$_3$ + GAC) compared with GAC processes without ozonation(i.e., GAC Filter-adsorber; F/A, GAC adsorber; GAC) removed approximately 10 to 20% more of DOC, hydrophilic DOM(HPI), BDOC and AOC after long period of operation that biological activity was assumed to happen. Ozonation was not found to have a significant effect on the removal of DOC, but caused the decrease of AOC by approximately 20%. It was found that the fixed bacterial biomass on GAC media did not show a significant difference between the GAC with ozonation and GAC without ozonation as pre-treatment, whereas the HPC of column effluent was more biostable at Post O$_3$ + GAC compared with F/A or GAC.

The catalytic effect induced by activated carbon (AC) was evaluated during the phenol treatment using an ozone/AC ($O_{3}/AC$) process. In the case of the addition of AC to the ozone only process, the decomposition efficiency of dissolved ozone and phenol increased with increasing the amount of AC input. It was that the OH radical generated from the decomposition of dissolved ozone by AC had an effect on the removal of phenol. It was shown as the catalytic effect of AC ([$\Delta$phenol]/$[{\Delta}O_{3}]_{AC}$) in this study. The maximum catalytic effect was approximately 2.13 under 10~40 g/L of AC input. It approached to the maximum catalytic effect after 40 min of reaction with 10 and 20 g/L of AC input, while the reaction time reached to the maximum catalytic effect under 30 and 40 g/L of AC input was approximately 20 min. Moreover, the removal ratios of total organic carbon (TOC) for ozone only process and ozone/AC process were 0.23 and 0.63 respectively.

The removal yield of dissolved organic matter in drinking water by biological activated carbon (BAC) process was investigated. The tested processes wer raw water-AC process (BAC1), raw water-ozonation-BAC process (BAC2), and raw water-ozonation-coagulation/sedimentation-BAC process (BAC3). The amounts of organic matter was measured as dissolved organic carbon (DOC), ulta-violet radiation at 254 nm wavelength ($UV_{254}$), total nitrogen (T-N), ammonia nitrogen (NH_3$-N), and total phosphate (T-P). As a results, 30.7% DOC was removed by BAC2 process, which showed higher removal efficiency than BAC1 or BAC3 processes. The removal yield of $UV_{254}$ in BAC1, BAC2, and BAC3 processes were observed as 45.3%, 44.6%, 58.4%, respectively. And the removal yield of ammonia nitrogen were 66%, 81%, 29% in each BAC processes. The optimal empty bed contact time (EBCT) of BAC processes was estimated as 10 minute. This study has shown that BAC process combined with ozone treatment was efficient for removing dissolved organic matter in water.

정수공정은 "원수 -1 침사지 1 전염소 -1 전오존 -1 침전지 1 여과지 1 후오존 1 GAC 4 후염소 1 가정수"로 이루어져 있으며 전처리 공정으로 염 소와 오존을 주입하게 되는데, 여기서 전염소 처리 공정으로 인해 잔류 유리염 소가 수중의 유기물질과 반웅하여 유해성 유기염소 화합물 (i.e.. Trihalomethane, Haloacetonitriles, Chlorophenol 등)을 생성하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이유로 고도 정수처리 공정에서는 강한 산화력을 지닌 대체 산화 제로서 오존을 이용하고 있다. 전오존 처리공정은 OOC와 탁도 제거에 있어 응 집제 주입량을 감소시키는 것과 더불어 전오존 효과 (산화, 생분해 증대, 살균 등)를 얻을 수 있는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 그러나 낙동강과 같이 유기물이 많은 원수에 과다한 오존이 주입되면 수중 의 유기물이 저분자화 또는 응집이 어려운 오존 산화물로 변화하여 응집제의 소비가 많아지게 된다. 실제, 오존을 응집 효과에 대해서 pilot plant로 운전한 결과 전오존에 의해 입자성 물질의 제거 효율은 향상된 반면에 유기물 제거는 뚜렷한 효과를 볼 수 없었다고 보고되었다 (류, 1997). 본 연구에서는 물금 지역의 원수와 응집-침전 공정까지 거치는 각각의 처 리수에 대해서 전처리가 응집에 미치는 영향을 천연유기물질 (NOM)의 조성 변화로 파악하였다. 그 방법으로 천연유기물질 (NOM)을 XAD-1, -4 수지를 이 용하여 소수성 물질 (hydrophobic components)과 친수성 물질 (hydrophilic components)로 분리 및 농축하여 용존 유기물이 처리 과정에서 어떻게 변화하 는지를 조사하여 개선된 상수 처리 시스템을 설계하는데 기초 자료를 제공하고 수질 관리 분야에서도 적용하고자 하였다. 상수원수인 물금 지역의 소수성 물질(hydrophobic components)은 75~80%, 친수성 물질(hydrophilic components)은 30~33%정도의 분포를 보였고, 전염소 및 전오존 공정을 거친 처리수에서는 각각 62.2-62.8%, 43.9~49.0% 및 50~ 55%, 40~57% 정도의 분포를 보였다. 그리고 웅집-침전을 거친 처리수에서는 그 분포가 77~82%, 24-48%였다. 전주리 공정을 통하여 소수성 물질(byoghobic components)의 분포가 감 소하는 것을 볼 때 전염소 및 전오존 처리가 용존유기물의 응집에는 오히려 역 효과를 나타내는 것으로 판단된다. 것으로 판단된다.

In order to study on the bleaching efficiency of flex fabrics, ozone which has been produced by an ozone generator, has been contacted with flex fabrics in water at various conditions. The equipments used for the ozone reatment of flex fabrics were the ozone generator and a liquor/ozone contactor. For the study of the bleaching efficiency on flex fabrics, the Hunter's whiteness, tensile strength, microscopic properties of the ozone treated flex fabrics were measured. The concentration of generated ozone was increased, as the voltage increase, flow ratio decrease and oxygen amount increase. The bleaching efficiency of ozone treated fabrics was increased with increasing the net concentration of ozone. The whiteness ozone of treated fabrics was found to be best when treated temperature was $0-15^{\circ}C$ and treated time was 20 min. The tensile strength of treated fabrics decreased as the treating time increased, and as the temperature raised.

In water treatment plant the Dissolved Ozone Flotation(DOF) System may be employed because this system has various abilities, such that it can remove SS using microbubbles, and it can exert strong oxidation power in removing taste and odor, color, and microbial agents. In order to investigate effectiveness of the DOF system in water treatment, removal characteristics of various water quality parameters were observed depending on the different levels of ozone concentrations. Removal efficiencies of water quality parameters in DOF system were compared with those in DAF(Dissolved Air Flotation) system and in CGS(Conventional Gravity Settling) system. Optimum ozone dose obtained in the pilot experiments was 2.7 mg/L. With increasing ozone dose higher than 2.7 mg/L, removal rates of turbidity, KMnO$_4$ consumption, UV$_{254}$ absorbance, and TOC were reversely lowered. High concentration of ozone dissociate organic matter in water, so that increasing dissolved organic level in effluent. Removal rates of water quality parameters at optimum ozone dose were obtained, such that removal rates of turbidity, KMnO$_4$ consumption, TOC, and UV$_{254}$ asorbance were 88.9%, 62.9%, 47%, and 77.3% respectively. Removal rate of THMFP was 51.6%. For all the parameters listed above, the DOF system was more effective than the DAF system or the CGS system. It is found that the DOF system may be used in advanced water treatment not only because the DOF system is more efficient in removing water quality parameters than the existing systems, but because the DOF system is also required smaller area than the CGS system for the treatment plant.

In this study, a lab-scale test was performed to apply the ozone process in drinking water treatment plant using dissolved ai, flotation(DAF). The kinetic study on the ozone decay and hydroxyl(OH) radical formation was investigated by several parameters, such as I.D(Instantaneous ozone demand), $k_c$(ozone decomposition rate), ozone-Ct and OH radical-Ct. Ozonation of several target waters, such as raw water, DAF treated water and filtrate, was conducted to select the optimum position and dosage of ozone process. The highest value of Ozone-Ct and OH radical-Ct was observed at DAF treated water at initial run time($0{\sim}30\;min$). From the results of ozonation, the intermediate ozonation was proposed as the optimum position and the effective dose of ozone was determined to be $1{\sim}2\;mg/L$.
