Depletion of natural resources and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions are an important issue which we have to solve. The recycling of waste has emerged as a global concern. In Korea, the development of cost-effective treatment and recycling technologies also need to be improved. In this study, we compared and analyzed the cost per unit of treatment and recycling of organic waste, and presented an effective recycling scheme. We investigated the current status of treatment and costs for six types of organic wastes from 80 workplaces, including organic wastewater treatment sludge, processed organic sludge, and plant residues. In addition, environmental costs for greenhouse gas reduction were calculated. It's an economic way that organic waste is composted and used as cement additives. In particular, the economic analysis was done by realistic results of the survey target companies. In conclusion, in order for reliable processing and recycling of organic wastes, wastewater treatment sludge and sewage sludge need to be classified based on hazard characteristics. Finally, technical difficulties need to be further resolved such as odors, leachate, and debris on recycling organic wastes.

본 연구의 목적은 국내 섬유산업에서 문제시되는 염색폐수처리에 막분리공정의 적용가능성과 문제점을 실험실규모와 pilot 규모의 실험을 통하여 규명하는 것이다. 염색폐수는 섬유의 가공공정에 따라 염료, 분산제, 정염제, 반응제 등 다양한 유기물질과 무기염을 함유하며 온도가 10-90$\circ$C로 높은 것이 특징이다. 본 연구에서는 2종류의 Nanofiltration: NF40, XU45; 두종류의 복합막; BW30, SW30HR; 2종류의 Cellulose Acetate 비대칭막의 평막 Sample을 사용하여 합성염색폐수의 배제율과 압력변화에 따른 투과수에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 실제 혼합염색폐수의 처리는 2개의 2.5"$\times$ 40" Nanofiltration 모듈을 장착한 Pilot 장치를 염색단지 종합처리장에 설치하여 3개월에 걸쳐 시행하였다. 현재까지 얻어진 실험결과에 의하면 전처리공정의 효율롸를 통해 부유물질에 의한 Fouling을 최소화하고 폐수의 성분분석과 사용된 막의 표면분석을 통한 체계적인 조사가 필요하다. 염색폐수처리에 막분리공정이 기존처리방법과 비교하여 경제성을 가지려면 효율적인 막세척방법을 개발하여 투과율의 감소를 최소화시켜야 한다.

국제협약에 따라 2012년부터 유기성폐기물의 해양배출이 금지됨에 따라 환경문제를 유발하는 축산분뇨, 음식물쓰레기, 농축산 폐기물 등의 처리가 곤란한 실정이다. 그러나 최근 저탄소 녹색성장으로 정부가 폐자원 에너지화에 관심을 기울이면서 위의 폐기물을 바이오가스로 전환하는 바이오가스 플랜트(Biogas Plant, BGP)의 이용이 보다 활성화 될 전망이다[1]. 이 바이오가스 처리방법에서 유기물은 메탄가스로 배출되고[2], 나머지 영양성분들(질소, 인산, 칼륨 등)은 모두 소화액에 남아있으므로[3] 이들은 친환경농업에서 필요한 액비로도 활용이 가능하며, 혐기소화 처리방법은 일반적인 가축분뇨 처리과정에서 발생되는 악취문제도 해결할 수 있는 장점 또한 가지고 있다. BGP는 유기성 폐기물에서 혐기성소화를 통해 바이오가스를 만드는 장점이 있는 반면, 가스를 만들고 남은 소화액은 액비로 활용이 가능하지만, 액비로 활용이 불가능할 경우 악성 폐수로 그 처리가 매우 까다로운 단점이 있다. 일반적인 생물학적인 폐수처리방법으로는 처리가 곤란하며, 환경기준을 맞추도록 처리하는데 많은 비용이 소요된다. 이러한 폐액처리를 위해 공정의 단순화와 높은 처리 효율[4]을 가지면서, 액비 또는 정화처리공정이 가능한 방법으로서 분리막공정이 바람직하나, BGP 발생폐액의 성상이 고농도의 오염물질을 함유하고 있어 적용이 쉽지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이를 보안할 수 있는 와류발생형 막모듈을 이용하여 Biogas Plant의 발생폐수에 대하여 분리막을 이용한 효과적인 처리공정을 개발하고 그에 따른 최적의 조건을 찾는 연구를 하고자 한다. 와류발생형 막모듈을 막과 막 사이에 와류를 발생시킴으로써 막에 전단력을 가하여 막의 가장 큰 단점인 막오염을 줄이는 방법으로 기존의 막모듈과 큰 차이가 있을 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 분리막 모듈[5]과 와류발생형 막모듈의 차이를 실험을 통해 확인하며, 막에 가해지는 압력, 막을 통과하는 유량 등의 차이를 두어 최적조건을 탐색하였다.

This study was performed to characterize the trace organic pollutants in the industrial wastewater and to establish the database of the trace organic pollutants. The four manufacturing industries, which are refined petroleum, industrial chemicals, rubber & plastics and fabricated metals, were surveyed. The wastewater and discharging water of these 30 factories are analyzed to characterize the trace organic pollutants. In industrial chemicals, the kinds of products and organic pollutants are very various. Therefore to select the characteristic organic pollutants in this categories are also very difficult. In industrial chemicals, the gas chromatograpic peak patterns of wastewater are represented the various type according to their products, therefore the typical patterns of the characteristic organic pollutants could not be obtained because the kinds of manufactured goods and organic pollutants are very various. In refined petroleum, the effluent is discharged in the distillatory process of atmosphere pressure and contained the saturated hydrocarbons, phenol compounds, benzene compounds and naphtalene compounds. The saturated hydrocarbons peaks from $C_{15}$ to $C_{35}$ are represented the typical oil patterns by the uniform intervals therefore the peak can be easily distinguished. In rubber & plastics, the wastewater is discharged in the washing process which contains the additives. The problem of wastewater is not serious because the manufacturing process is not produced the effluent or the produced cooling water is recycled in that process.

The yeast strain was isolated from food industry waste water and its identification and biological characteristics were investigated. The optimum condition for cultivations and its activities for the reduction of B.O.D. on the food industry waste water were also confirmed. The results are as follows; 1) The isolated was identified as Candida curvata. 2) Candida curvata grew well in all of the experimented media, so and it can be regarded as a useful strain in the treatment of food industry waste water. 3) There was only a slight difference in the induction period between sterilized cultivation and unsterilized cultivation. But in the ice cream waste water, the period was considerably longer in unsterilized cultivation. 4) Specific rate of growth of Candida curvata in sugar waste water was 0.50/hr, ice cream waste water 0.50/hr, and beer waste water 1.0/hr. 5) Increasing of innoculum reduced the induction period in unsterilized cultivation. 6) The amount of dried yeast from sugar waste water were $175mg/{\ell}$, ice cream waste water $628mg/{\ell}$, and beer waste water $857mg/{\ell}$. Crude protein content in the dried yeast from sugar waste water were 52%, ice cream waste water 54%, and beer waste water 54%. 7) The rate of BOD reduction in sugar waste water were 49%, ice cream waste water 80%, and beer waste water 64%.

Aerobic sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to treat screened dairy wastewaters. The study examined the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) in the aerobic SBR and raw manure effluent storage over 35 days. The reduction of total VFAs in the aerobic SBR was over $59\%$ removal than that of the raw manure. Acetic acid production in the aerobic SBR and the raw manure effluent storage were kept 138 and 286 mg/L. The propionic acid in the aerobic SBR was 1.9 mg/L, while the raw manure effluent storage was 68 mg/L, respectively. The concentrations of VOCs in the aerobic SBR reactor and effluent fill down remarkably than the raw manure storage. The results confirmed that the aerobic biological treatment is an essential requirement for minimizing odor problems.

본 연구결과로 부터, Phenols, Alihatic compounds, Aromatic compounds, Phthalates, Pesticides와 같은 유기오염물질로 인한 영산강 유역 방류수의 오염을 알 수 있었고, 하수 성상별, 계절별로 검출된 물질을 보면 농공 폐수가 생활하수보다 다종의 유기오염물질들을 포함하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 여름철에 다량의 농약 사용으로 인해 Pesticides가 다종 고농도로 검출되었으며, Phenols, Phthalates는 주변공장의 제조과정에서 발생된 유기물질들에 의한 오염으로 추측된다. 또한, 검출 화학물질 중에서 dieldrin, edosulfan, diethyl phthalates와 같은 환경호르몬성 물질이 포함되었다.

생활하수처리장과 농공단지폐수처리장 방류수의 화학분석과 in vitro bio-assay를 통한 세포독성의 결과를 통해 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) 다성분 동시분석법을 통해 다양한 성상을 가진 9곳의 방류수에서는 phenol, aliphatic compounds, polycyclic compounds, phthalate, pesticides, aromatic amines, benzens, nitro compounds이 주오염물질로 검출이 되었다. 2) 세포독성을 나타내는 TU값이 생활하수에서는 화학분석에 결과 다종고농도의 유기오염물질이 검출된 A지점과 농공폐수의 F지점에서 높게 나타났다. 즉, 화학분석결과와 in vitro bio-assay에 의한 상관관계를 유추해 볼 수 있다. 3) S9 mixture에 따른 대사활성으로 난분해성, 소수성 유기오염물질에 대한 세포독성에 악영향을 미침을 알 수 있다.

Growing industrialization leads to severe water pollution. Organic effluents from pharmaceuticals and textile industries released in wastewater adversely affect the environment and human health. Presence of antibiotics used for antibacterial treatment in wastewater leads to the growth of drug resistance bacteria, which is very harmful for human being. Various small organic molecules are used for the preparation of organic dye molecules in the textile industries. These molecules hardly degrade, which is present in the wastewater effluents from printing and dyeing industries. In order to address these problems, photoactive catalyst is embedded in the membrane and wastewater are passed through it. Through this process, organic molecules are photodegraded and at the same time, the degraded compounds are separated by the membrane. Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) is a semiconductor which behave as excellent photocatalyst. Photocatalytic ability is enhanced by the making its composite with other transition metal oxide and incorporated into polymeric membrane. In this review, the degradation of dye and drug molecules by photocatalytic membrane are discussed.
