본 연구에서는 전극의 특성에 따른 돈사유래 축산폐수의 ECO 공법에 의한 처리특성을 평가하기 위해 ECO 시스템 모듈내 Fe-Fe 및 Al-Al 계열의 용해성 전극과 Al-SUS, Ir-SUS 등 불용성 전극을 대상으로 5$\sim$20mA/cm$^2$의 전류밀도하에서 축산폐수내 유기물 및 영양염류의 제거특성을 평가하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1. 전기응집산화에 의한 축산폐수의 처리시 수중 유기물질 및 영양염류의 제거효율은 전류밀도의 증가에 비례하여 증가한다. 2. 불용성 전극조합 및 불용성-용해성 전극조합은 전류밀도가 높을수록 수중 유기물 및 오염물질 제거효율이 안정되고, 용해성 전극은 15mA/cm$^2$ 이하의 저 전류밀도의 조건하에서 전류밀도의 증가에 따라 안정된 제거효율 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 3. 불용성전극 조합인 Ir-SUS 전극조합을 사용하여 축산폐수를 처리할 경우 COD$_{Mn}$ 제거효율을 약 10% 향상시킬 수 있으며, TN 20mA/cm$^2$에서 Al-Al 전극조합과 TP 15mA/cm$^2$ 이하에서 Fe-Fe 전극조합은 제거효율이 저하되는 경향이 나타난다.

Aerobic digestion of organic sludge generates stabilized slurry which could be used as a nitrogen-rich liquid fertilizer. In this study, the effects of air supply rate and eggshell addition on the sludge fertilizer efficiency were examined. Sludge from a wastewater treatment plant in a food industry was fed to a lab-scale aerobic digester, and the fertilizer efficiency was assessed by the growth of cucumber. Increase of air supply rate up to 200 mL/L/min enhanced the fertilizer efficiency as well as the nitrification efficiency. The addition of eggshell, a potassium-rich leftover, in fertilizer application was also beneficial to the cucumber growth. A proper control of air supply rate and the use of an inexpensive additive would guarantee the quality of sludge liquid fertilizer.

산업의 발달 및 인구 증가에 따라 발생되는 폐수의 종류는 다양해지고 있으며, 폐수의 처리를 위해서는 주로 생물학적 처리를 먼저 검토하게 된다. 하지만 최근 폐수의 성분은 생물학적으로 처리하기 어려운 난분해성 요인(고농도의 염분, 독성 유기용매, 중금속 등)이 존재 할 뿐 아니라, 생물학적 처리 후 존재하는 잔류 유기물은 환경부에서 제시하는 방류수 기준을 만족시키기에 어려움이 있다. 이러한 난분해성 요인을 제거하기 위해서 전기 화학적 처리의 필요성이 대두되고 있으며, 다양한 고도산화기술들이 제시되고 있다. 그 중 처리시간의 단축으로 인한 처리비용 절감과 산화제 발생에 따른 높은 처리 효율로 인해 전기화학적 폐수산화처리에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 사용되어 지고 있는 전기화학적 폐수산화처리를 위한 불용성 전극을 BDD 전극으로 대체하여 다양한 폐수에 전기분해 처리 적용 가능성을 검토하고자 기존 BDD 전극의 기판 모재로 이용되던 Si, Nb 대신에 Ti 기판 위에 BDD 형성시켜 전극을 제작하였고, 폐수의 전기분해 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 축산폐수, 해양폐수, 질산염폐수 등 실제 폐수를 채수하여 폐수 내 유기물의 전기분해 처리 효율을 분석하였다. 이에 Ti 모재 기판에 증착된 BDD 전극을 이용하여 폐수 내 유기물의 전기분해 처리효율을 분석 한 결과, 축산폐수의 경우 처리시간 150분에 95% 이상 처리효율을 나타냈으며, 해양폐수의 경우 처리시간 60분에 98% 이상의 유기물 제거 효결과가 나타남에 따라 축산폐수와 선박 평형수, 양식장폐수 등 다양한 폐수에 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 기존에 적용되어 지고 있는 고도산화처리 기술을 BDD 전극을 이용한 전기화학적 처리로 대체 할 수 있을 것으로 기대할 수 있다.

Hydrogen($H_2$) as a clean, and renewable energy carrier will be served an important role in the future energy economy. Several biological $H_2$ production processes are known and currently under development, ranging from direct bio-photolysis of water by green algae, indirect bio-photolysis by cyanobacteria including the separated two stage photolysis using the combination of green algae and photosynthetic microorganisms or green algae alone, dark anaerobic fermentation by fermentative bacteria, photo-fermentation by purple bacteria, and water gas shift reaction by photosynthetic or fermentative bacteria. In this paper, biological $H_2$ production processes, that are being explored in fundamental and applied research, are reviewed.

최근 일상생활 전반에 걸쳐 환경보전의 중요성이 대두되고 있으며, 특히 축산시설에서 배출되는 유기성 폐자원은 심각한 환경문제를 야기시키고 있는 실정이다. 축산농가로부터 방출되는 가축의 분뇨 및 폐수에 다량 함유되어 있는 인산화합물들은 수질의 부영양화를 일으켜 수질오염의 주요인이 되고 있다. 한편, 가축분뇨에는 식물의 생장에 필요한 주요 성분이 다량 함유되어 있어 적절하게 가공하면 작물재배용 비료로의 활용성이 크다. (중략)

Characteristics of biological hydrogen production rate and organic acid under anaerobic fermentation process were investigated with sugar wastewater. Hydrogen production rate was higher with alkaline pre-treatment than acidic pre-treatment, resulting in 70% increment. An adequate supply of the nutrients (N or P) into raw sugar wastewater could increase hydrogen production rate. Carbohydrate degradation of the anaerobic fermentation process was not directly related with hydrogen production. Sugar wastewater with the addition of the nutrients shows 3 times higher B/A ratio than the raw sugar wastewater. B/A ratio of the wastewater with alkaline pre-treatment and nutrients addition was most higher than other samples, showing 4.02 of B/A ratio. Higher B/A ratio shows higher hydrogen production rate at each sample.

Processing of organic waste is converted to anaerobic digestion for environmental friendly and sustainable energy recovery and reduction of sludge. In this study, ECOPAD (ECOdays' Plug-flow Anaerobic Digster)design for a high solids content and high organic matter content were used to investigate an applicability and efficiency of food waste treatment and poultry wastewater treatment. Case-by-case analysis of treatment efficiency of ECOPAD using food waste of city "P" and city "S". Volatile Solids basis organic removal efficiency of city "P" and city "S" was 84% and 88% respectively. And, the content of methane (P City: 70%, S City: 71%) was measured similarly. In the case of poultry waste bio-gas production was measured to $1.6Nm^3/kg$-VSrem, and methane content was measured to 69%.

The possibility of using waste brine and cabbage waste from kimchi industry as raw materials for the production of yeast cell mass was investigated. Among four strains of osmotolerant yeast, Candida guilliermondii ATCC 6260 showed the best growth in the waste brine containing about 1.0g/L of reducing sugar and 7% to 12% of NaCl. The growth of C. guilliermondii in waste brine was affected slightly between the temperature range of $25^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C$ and the initial pH of 3 to 6. The NaCl concentration up to 9% was not inhibitory to the growth of C. guilliermondii and the addition of 10mM of ammonium salts or 5mM of potassium phosphate had no effect on the growth. The growth of yeast reduced BOD of the waste brine by 85% within 24hours. When C. guilliermondii was cultured in waste brine added with cabbage juice extracted from waste cabbage, the cell mass was increased significantly.

The purpose of this study is to investigate biomass characteristics and organic removal efficiency by changing superficial upflow velocity and organic loading rate in treating alcoholic distillery wastewater. Since the biomass concentration and the thickness of biofilm are very sensitive to superficial upflow velocity, a high concentration of biomass could be achieved by decreasing superficial upflow velocity that lowered the organic removal efficiency. Therefore, superficial upflow velocity should be controlled as to give optimum conditions and removal efficiency. Generally, activated sludge system shows 70% COD removal efficiency at$1.5kgCOD/m^3{\cdot}day$, but the fluidized-bed biofllm reactor shows 80% COD removal efficiency even at 6kgCOD/$m^2{\cdot}day$.

Epoxy resins are produced by the dehydro condensated reaction with ECH (Epichlorohydrin) and BPA(Bisphenol-A) as raw reactants under sodium hydroxide(NaOH) as a catalyst, and from this reaction, salted water named of brine, which contains ECH derivatives in condition of emulsion as likely as glycidol and polymer resins, is produced as an undesired side product. This brine water is alkaline wastewater and causes process fouling problems by plugging and chemically depositing polymer particles on the surface of inner wall of reactors and pipes, and decreases the biodegradable efficiency in the wastewater process. In this study, the optimization of coagulation and sediment reactions, using inorganic and organic polymer coagulants, were performed to remove the causes occurring the process fouling phenomena. And also, based on this study, the methodologies applicable to the commercial processes including economical analysis were presented.
