The reclamation of food waste is brought by law in order to clean the underground water. Thus the food waste feed back system should be prepared. The electric heater and mixing tool for FIR radiation were developed in order to control the food waste fermentation. Also we suggest the optimum temperature 19$0^{\circ}C$, black enamel ware for food waste control.

우리나라 생활폐기물 중 음식물쓰레기는 가장 많은 부분을 차지하고 있다. 또한, 음식물쓰레기에서 발생되는 음폐수의 발생량은 8,926톤/일에 달하고 있지만, 이 중 극히 일부만이 하수처리장 등에서 병합 처리되고 있고 대부분은 해양 투기되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 독일 GBU사로부터 중온/습식/이상 혐기성 소화 기술을 도입하여 HADS Pilot Plant를 설치하였고, 2008년 3월부터 국내 음폐수 및 음식물쓰레기에 적합한 최적의 운전기술을 확보하기 위한 Pilot Test를 실시하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 HADS Pilot Plant는 산발효조($6m^3$), 메탄발효조($50m^3$), 안정화조/가스저장조($40m^3$)그리고 가스 소각기로 구성되어 있다. 그리고 적용 음폐수 및 음식물쓰레기는 경기도 Y군에 위치한 사료화 시설에 반입되는 것을 이용하였는데 음폐수는 평균 TS 13.5%, VS 80%, pH $3.7{\pm}0.2$의 성상을 나타내었다. 이를 이용해 계단식으로 유기물 부하를 증가시키면서 $4kgVS/m^3/d$까지 적용하며 중온 상태에서 혐기성 소화를 실시한 결과, $0.8Nm^3/kgVS_{rem}/d$의 바이오가스 회수 및 85%의 VS 감량이 가능함을 확인하였다. 그리고 음식물쓰레기는 음폐수와 달리 1차 파쇄/선별기 및 배관상에 설치되는 2차 미세파쇄/선별기를 통한 전처리를 실시하였고, 1차 파쇄/선별 후 평균적으로 TS가 17.4%, VS는 81%, pH는 $3.85{\pm}0.2$의 성상을 나타내는 음식물쓰레기를 2차 미세파쇄/선별기를 거쳐 Pilot Plant의 산발효조에 투입하여 중온상태에서 혐기성 소화를 실시하였다. 음폐수 적용시와 마찬가지로 계단식으로 유기물 부하를 증량하면서 $4kgVS/m^3/d$까지 적용하여 운전하였고, 그 결과 약 $0.9{\sim}1.2Nm^3/kgVS_{rem}/d$의 바이오가스 회수와 85~87%의 VS 감량 효율을 확인하였다. 음폐수와 음식물쓰레기의 혐기성 소화 실험 결과, 제거된 VS량을 기준으로 보았을 때, 음식물쓰레기에서 더 많은 바이오가스 발생하였는데 이는 음식물쓰레기에 존재하는 고형물이 미생물들의 서식 공간으로 활용됨에 따라 혐기성 소화 과정에서 일어나는 혼합 발효 및 공영양 대사가 음폐수 대비 좀 더 수월하게 일어날 수 있게 된 데에 따른 결과라고 생각된다. 당사의 HADS Pilot Plant test에서는 계단식의 순차적인 유기물 부하 증량과 총VFA/총 알카리도 비율을 0.3~0.4 수준이하로 유지하며 운전함에 따라 음폐수와 음식물 모두에서 안정적으로 $4kgVS/m^3/d$까지의 유기물 부하 적용이 가능하였다. 또한, 생산된 바이오가스 내 메탄의 함량은 60~65%를 유지하였으며, 메탄발효조의 pH는 별도의 조절이 없이도 운전기간 동안 평균 7.8~7.9 수준을 유지하였다. 이처럼 pH 3.7~3.8의 음폐수 또는 음식물쓰레기의 투입에도 안정적인 완충능력을 보여준 것은 소화조 내에서 기질로부터 분해되어져 나오는 암모니아와 이산화탄소가 강력한 버퍼 시스템을 구축하고 있음에 따른 결과로 사료된다. 그리고 음폐수와 음식물쓰레기의 경우 모두 85%이상의 높은 VS 제거율을 보여주었는데 이는 당사의 HADS Pilot Plant 소화조의 구조가 내통과 외통으로 구분되어져 있음에 따라 plug flow + CSTR의 특징을 가짐에 따른 결과로 판단된다. 상기한 결과를 바탕으로 향후에는 $5kgVS/m^3/d$ 수준의 유기물 부하 적용운전도 계획하고 있다.

High sodium contents in food-waste compost(FWC) is the greatest limitation to recycle it to arable lands in Korea. The effects of the FWC application to paddy soil on the growth of rice plants, cationic balance in plants, and the sodicity of soil have been studied in pot trials. The effects of FWC application were compared with those of NaCl compound and swine manure compost(SMC) application. $Na_2O$ contents of FWC were high as 2.2%. Immediately after transplanting, rice plants in three treatments showed severe wilting in the order of 40Mg FWC $ha^{-1}$ > NPK+900kg $NaClha^{-1}$ > 20Mg FWC $ha^{-1}$. The high EC value and volatile acid contents of soil solution were regarded as the cause of severe wilting of young rice plants. Increase of NaCl application rate upto $900kgha^{-1}$ showed no significant reduction of dry matter yield at harvesting stage. Regardless of application rates FWC reduced the dry matter yield at harvesting stage, while SMC increased it with increase of application rates upto $40Mgha^{-1}$. In NPK+NaCl and FWC treatments, Na contents and equivalent ratio in plants increased linearly with increase of Na application rates. Between Na and K equivalent ratio negative correlation with high significance was shown. In contrast to much difference of Na, K, and Na/K equivalent ratio among treatments, little difference of Na+K indicated the physiological substitution of Na for K in rice plants. Na use efficiency in NPK+NaCl and FWC treatments showed 12-22%.

This study was performed to determine the best fermentation soil in vanishing composting of individual residence garbage. At the result, temperature, weight, water content, volatile solid were reduced gradually by reaction of microorganism in the reactors after food was inserted for 9 days. The vanishing possibility was observed in all reactors. The best reactor was F and 4 that seeded microorganisms which were provided at S University. In addition it was possible to shorten cycle of putting in food waste. Inactivated reactors will be bad because of increased water content for long reaction time. Sodium chloride was accumulated and not vanished as time passed. But reactor was not insulated, the activities of microorganism in the reactor were affected highly by cold weather(about less than $12^{\circ}C$). When the study was extended to find out the feasibility of application, the retention time could be shortened to 3days form 9 days, when the microorganism reactor that used the fermentation soil seeded microorganisms which were provided at S University was maintained about $20^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to examine the possibility of reuse fermented foodwaste as a bulking agent in livestock waste and foodwaste composting. Aerobic composting device was added to the following sample : Foodwaste + Sawdust, Livestock feces+Sawdust, Foodwaste + Ferment, Livestock feces + Ferment. Temperature, pH, OM/N ratio, moisture, heavy metals, and microbes were measured in process of aerobic composting. The results of this study are following. 1. The composting period is determined in 16~24days, according to the change of temperature and OM/N ratio. 2. The salinity contents in compost of livestock waste and foodwaste ferment is about 0.5%, which can be solved the problems of salinity contents in foodwaste composting. 3. The proper ratio of livestock waste composting is 40% of cow feces to 60% of foodwaste ferment. 4. Processing expense of aerobic composting of foodwaste and sawdust is 40 won/kg composting expense of foodwaste and ferment is 30 won/kg. Fermented product composting can cut down the expense of bulking agent than others.

Recently the market of the food waste disposer has increased. Therefore, many companies in the development of food garbage disposer has been increasing interest. In this study, we used QFD (Quality Function Development) to find out the quality factors for the development of the food waste disposer reflecting the consumer needs. HOQ (House Of Quality) showing the correlation between consumer characteristic and engineering characteristic was written by investigating the consumer needs based on the consumer complaints and survey. In addition, we generated the CTQ (Critical To Quality) reflecting the weighting of the importance of the parts. As the research result, the important quality factors for the food garbage disposer were the grinding capability, drying, and odor emission features. The crushing motor associated with grinding and dehydration appeared as the most important quality factors among the parts. Second thing was the fan motor associated with odor. The findings will be able to contribute to the development of the food waste disposer reflecting the consumer needs.

Environmental issues are being paid more attention due to income growth, urban overcrowding, and population growth in Korea. Among the various environmental problems, odor damage is the one of the serious factors. To take example for food waste combination treatment in Su-young wastewater treatment plant in Busan, many complaints occurred because this plant locate around residential areas. The purpose of this work is not only to analyze odorous elements and their contributions but also to evaluate odor quotient (OQ), sum of odor quotient (SOQ), and treatment efficiency of bio-filter. The results of dilution sensory test of complex odor, grinder, leachate, hopper indicated higher order complex odors happen in July and August. The main odorous elements consisted of hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, methly mercaptan and acetaldehyde, which were analyzed by instrumental detection method, and methyl mercaptan was exceeded over 3,571 times of threshold. In addition, result of contribution of odor was methyl mercaptan (49.95 to 59.08%), hydrogen sulfide (20.43 to 29.27%), trimethylamine (8.82 to 13.42%) and acetaldehyde (9.17 to 11.35%). Other facilities were compared with the contribution of the odor using OQ and SOQ during the process. Sulfur compounds, acetaldehyde, and trimethylamine are high contribution of odor using OQ as well as odor intensity of grinding process is highest. As a result, sulfur compounds (e.g., methyl mercaptan and hydrogen sulfide) are highest for OQ and SOQ of grinding process is highest as 7,067. The removal efficiency of deodorization equipment was more than 90.00% in ammonia and amines, but the average efficiency of sulfur compounds was 53.51%. Thus, this facility is more higher contribution of acetaldehyde and trimethylamine than other treatment facilities. And food waste treatment in environmental area needs to consider appropriate capacity and refers to other bio-filter operating conditions.
