Vanadium is a trace mineral present in dietary sources, most commonly vegetables. The aim of this study was to investigate the growth and vanadium absorption characteristics of Brassica napus L., Fagopyrum esculentum, and Hordeum vulgare L. using different Jeju water concentrations. The growth of three sprout vegetables and absorption characteristics of vanadium were different depending on Jeju water concentration containing vanadium. In the case of B. napus L. and H. vulgare L., germination rate was inhibited by increasing Jeju water concentration, whereas in F. esculentum, the best germination rate (60.7 %) was obtained at 40 times concentration of Jeju water (vanadium, 1.34 mg/L). For the sprout growth, growth of shoots increased with increasing Jeju water concentration, but root growth was gradually inhibited by increasing Jeju water concentration. For the absorption of vanadium by Jeju water concentration, vanadium was not detected in H. vulgare L. The vanadium contents of B. napus L. and F. esculentum were 4.2 mg/kg and 2.9 mg/kg at 10 times concentration of Jeju water (vanadium, 0.46 mg/L), respectively.

상수처리 시스템엣의 분리막의 적용시 효과적인 공정운영을 위해 여러가지 운전조건이 있으나 막내에 축적되는 막오염이 주요문제로 인식되고 있다. 막오염은 막 표면이나 세공에서 물질의 흡착, 부착 및 축적등과 같은 일련의 메카니즘에 의해 물의 유속을 저하시키는 결과를 초래하며 분리막 공정에서 커다란 경제적 손실을 가져다 줄 수 있으므로 막오염을 조절할수 있는 인자들의 제어는 실플랜트에서 중요한 과제이다. 분리막을 이용한 상수처리 시스템에서의 운전 조건들은 온도, 압력, 선속도, pH등이 있으며 안정적이며 경제적인 투과 flux를 위해서는 실험실적 규모를 통해 최적 조건을 선정해 주어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구는 이러한 막오염을 제어하고 최적 운전조건을 선정하기 위해 상수원수로 호소수에 포함되어 있는 유기물의 대부분을 차지하리라 생각되는 humic acid와 무리물질인 kaolin을 모사용액으로 제조하여 막오염과 운전조건과의 상호작용을 cake 저항, 비저항 값으로 측정하여 장기간의 field test에 필요한 최적 운전조건을 선정해 주었다.

In this paper, 4 bundle modules of PVDF hollow fiber membrane from Woori Tech company (Korea) were manufactured in a treatment capacity of 10 ton/day. A membrane bioreactor (MBR) pilot plant was installed at Sooyoung Wastewater Treatment Plant in Busan. An alternating aeration process was selected to avoid the concentration profile of suspended solid (SS) in the MBR. For stable operation, raw wastewater with mixed liquor suspended solid (MLSS) of about 1,000 ppm, which was in-flowed from the aeration tank of the wastewater treatment plant, was fed and filtered through the pilot plant. Subsequently the pilot plant were washed three times with washing water: once with ethanol solution, once with a solution of 5% NaOCl, and finally with washing water. After the chemical washing, the remaining water in the MBR was fed into the pilot plant. As a result, the SS removal efficiency was found to be more than 99.9%. The amount of filtrate with the aeration tank influent decreased by 16%, compared with that from the initial conditions, giving rise to 30% increase in the suction pressure. These results were used to set up continuous operation conditions. The results from the continuous operation with influent MLSS of 1,900 mg/L showed that the SS removal efficiency was about 99.99% and that the amount of filtrate and the suction pressure were $42{\sim}52L/m^2$ and 16~20 cmHg, respectively, indicating stable operation of the pilot plant. However, for the reuse of wastewater, methods need to be sought to avoid growth of algae which affects the SS removal efficiency at inlet and outlet of the permeate tank.

The main purposes of this study were to compare the characteristics of fractionated natural organic matters(NOM) from Han River water and Wangsuk(W) stream water, and to investigate the relationships between NOM and the formation of disinfection by products(DBPs). Three types of resin such as XAD-4, XAD-7HP and IRC-50 were used to isolate the water samples into three organic fractions. The DOC concentrations of raw waters were relatively low($1.5{\sim}3.3$ mg/L) at all seasons. The hydrophilic was the major constituent, contributing $44{\sim}63%$ of the total NOM and hydrophobic $21{\sim}33%$, transphilic $16{\sim}31%$, respectively. The formation of trihalomethans(THMs) was highly influenced by particulated NOM especially in the rainy season, whereas haloaceticacid forming potentials(HAAFPs) depended more on the hydrophilic fraction of dissolved NOM which is known to be difficult to be removed through conventional processes. The NOM of W stream was characterized as 15% hydrophobic, 9% transphilic, and 76% hydrophilic. In the fractionation of NOM using resins, $20{\sim}40%$ of the NOM in W tributary water could not be clearly isolated, whereas, 85% of the NOM in the raw water was recovered. Although the DOC concentration of tributary water was higher than the raw waters from the Han River, the DBPFPs was approximately 40% of the raw waters. In DBPFPs aspect, W stream has less effect than Han River water itself. Bromide in tributary waters discharged from waste water treatment plants has been found to shift the distribution of THMs and HANs to the more brominated DBPs.

In the present work Einstein's(l942) suspended load equation IS refined in vanous aspects. After checking the flow characteristics a new method is presented for the estimation of zero velocity point at the condition of smooth turbulent flow, and non-dimensional number of suspended load is introduced for the clear representation of suspended load equation. And a recent equation of bed load is employed in order to calculate accurately the sediment concentration at a reference point. Several approximation equations are also developed to compute directly or explicitly two integrals introduced in the equations. The refined equation has been tested against the measurement data collected by Brownlie(l981) in comparison with Einstein's original equation.uation.

The objectives of this research are to investigate the mechanism of coagulation affecting UF and find out the optimum conditions of the combined of coagulation with UF membrane filtration for NOM removal. During the mixing period, substantial changes in particle size distribution occurred under rapid and slow mixing condition due to the simultaneous formation of microflocs and NOM precipitates. Therefore, combined pretreatment using coagulation (both rapid mixing and slow mixing) improved dissolved removal efficiency. Also, for combined coagulation to membrane process, flux reduction rate showed lower than only UF process. The rate of flux decline for the hydrophobic membrane was considerably greater than for the hydrophilic membrane. Applying coagulation process before membrane filtration showed not only reducing membrane fouling, but also improving the removal of dissolved organic materials that might otherwise not be removed by the membrane.

In this study, EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) model was used to simulate the salinity distribution for sea water inflow and rainfall runoff. The flowrate was given to the boundary conditions, which can be calculated by areal-specific flowrate method from the measured flowrate of the representative outfall. The boundary condition of the water elevation can be obtained from the hourly tidal elevation. The flowrate from the outfall can be calculated using the condition of the 245 mm raifall. The simulation results showed that at Sites 1~2 and the Mangsan island (Site 4) the salinity becomes 0 ppt after the rainfall. However, the salinity is 30 ppt when there is no rainfall. Time series of the salinity changes were compared with the measured data from January 1 to December 31, 2010 at the four sites (Site 2~5) of Yongwon channel. Lower salinities are shown at the inner sites of Yongwon channel (Site 1~4) and the sites of Songjeong river (Site 7~8). The intensive investigation near the Mangsan island showed that the changes of salinity were 21.9~28.8 ppt after the rainfall of 17 mm and those of the salinity were 2.33~8.05 ppt after the cumulative rainfall of 160.5 mm. This means that the sea water circulation is blocked in Yongwon channel, and the salinity becomes lower rapidly after the heavy rain.

Dissolved air flotation (DAF) process is generally considered more effective than sedimentation process in raw water containing algae, humus materials, and low density particles. This study presents the treatment efficiencies by the coagulation and flocculation conditions at a drinking water treatment plant using a laboratory tester and the full scale DAF pump system. The full scale DAF pump system (F-DAF) in this study had a capacity of 5,000 $m^3$/d and a hydraulic surface loading of 10 m/hr. F-DAF in D drinking water treatment plant was continuously operated to determine the operational performance and pretreatment (mixing and coagulation) conditions. Results in the laboratory experiment showed that the optimum coagulant (PSO-M) doses required to 2.7~4.5 mL/$m^3$/NTU with raw water turbidity from 13.8 NTU to 56.3 NTU. F-DAF in the optimum coagulant dosage could be operated in effluent turbidity of 1 NTU or below for a month.

Existing equations of bed load transport have large variations in their forms and adopt different variables so that it is very difficult to understand the characteristics of each equation. Different sets of measurement data have been employed for the development of various equations, and the comparison between them is completely dependent on the choice of the data for the verification. Several equations seem to have some defects in their basic assumptions. Various non-dimensional physical numbers directly associated with the mechanism of bed load transport are related with each other, and one of them is chosen for the unification of the form. Good ideas introduced in a certain equation are employed for the refinement of other equations. Then optimum values of empirical parameters have been determined by using the data collected by Brownlie(1981) and a new bed load equation has been developed, which is considered widely valid and relatively very accurate.curate.
