퇴비화는 유기물질이 분해되는 조건에 따라 호기성 퇴비화(Aerobic composting)와 혐기성 퇴비화(Anaerobic composting)로 대별된다. 음식물쓰레기 퇴비화 시설의 주요공정은 선별시설, 혼합 및 발효시설, 불순물제거장치, 숙성시설, 악취제거시설로 구성된다. 본 과제에서는 이와 같이 음식폐기물 처리공정 등에 널리 사용되는 퇴비화 공정에서 발생하는 악취를 제거하기 위한 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 형태의 탈취 공정을 비교 검토하였으며, 세라믹 담체를 사용한 생물학적 처리에 초점을 맞추어 연구를 진행하였다. 이를 위하여 퇴비화 온도에 따른 유기물의 변화와 NaCl의 농도변화를 측정하여 퇴비화 진행에 따른 성분 변화를 예측하였다.

Organic wastes are not disposing object but renewable resources. One of those ways of rendering to resources, composting is environmentally friendly way as to aspect of recycling of resources. Regardless of ways, composting goes through the main processes which are fermentation process and curing process. In the study, mobile composting device was developed with the experiments which were performed to solve the problems of fermentation and curing process. Since reaction vessel is rotated, it does not cease in the middle of agitation because of foreign. In addition, it mixed as well. With maintaining uniform temperature of reaction vessel by controlling amount of air, fermentation and curing are easy to use. Its economic feasibility is better than the existing fermentation equipments. Furthermore, it benefits to reduce the personnel and materiel maintenance cost, and mass produce composting product which use organic waste. Especially, although it needs less space, it has effect to provide transferable composting device with available area to increase by contacting organic waste to air.

퇴비화는 유기물이 생물의 작용에 의해 분해되면서 보다 안정화된 형태로 변형되어 가는 과정으로 여러가지 환경요인에 의해 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 유기물의 퇴비화 과정에 영향을 주는 요인을 토양 생화학적 및 미생물학적 측면으로 분석하여 퇴비화 공정설계에 있어 분해원리의 이해에 도움을 주고자 하며, 퇴비화 후 최종적인 사용, 즉 농업적 이용 가능성에 대해서도 간략하게 기술하고자 한다.

This study was conducted to evaluate production of complex odor and 12 specific odorous compounds in a pilot-scale (capacity : $100m^3$) ultra thermophilic aerobic composting. There were three types input: municipal wasted sludge, livestock manure and slurry, and food waste produced in Jung-Eb city. Each raw material was mixed with seed material and operated for two periods (1st : 50 days, 2nd : 60days). During composting, the temperature hit $90{\sim}95^{\circ}C$ after every mixing in both periods. Therefore, it was concluded that increasing temperature also saves the time which required for composting and high reduction of organics and water contents. The primary odorous compounds were ammonia, methyl mercaltan, dimethyl disulfide and trimethylamine. The concentration of the primary compounds and complex odor during the operation were higher than those on final day and most compounds did not exceed the allowable exhaust standard for odor. Also, it was found that optimal mixing time and control of high temperature are the most important parameters for odor control in ultra thermophilic aerobic composting.

This study was performed to investigate the concentration variation of airborne bacteria and endotoxin by the temperature in the compost pile in order to identify the generation characteristics of biological factors in the exhaust gases generated from lab-scale sludge compositing reactors (0.06 $m^3$ of total reactor volume). Airborne bacteria showed the highest concentration of generation ($1.03{\times}10^5\;CFU/m^3$) in the composting reactor without mechanical agitation, and similar change tendency to temperature variation of composting, but somewhat lower statistical significance (p>0.05). In the compost reactor with mechanical agitation, endotoxin showed similar generation characteristic to temperature variation of composting (statistical significance; p<0.05) and the highest generation concentration to 1,415 EU/$m^3$. Mechanical agitation of the composting process affected activity of microorganism and positive generation of endotoxin in exhaust gases. Endotoxin and airborne bacteria showed similar tendency of generation, especially the highest statistical correlation was observed in the compost reactor without mechanical agitation (statistical significance: p<0.01).

Municipal solid wastes in Korea have physical and chemical properties suitable for composting, but composting has had little practical use in solid waste disposal until now because of a lack of understanding of process control. For practical use of composting, process control must be capable of maintaining good product quality while large quantities are composted in a short period of time. Ventilation control to maintain optimum temperature(Temperature Feedback Aeration Method) is reported to be convenient to operate. The purpose of this study is to analyze process efficiency and optimum temperature in the temperature feedback aeration method for composting of municipal solid wastes. The results of this study show that degradation and drying of substrate in the temperature feedback aeration method are higher than those in the constant aeration method. And the optimum temperature range for composting of solid wastes appears to be $50{\sim}54^{\circ}C$.

Composting facilities are operated with air and moisture control. Composting effects on two operating factors was analysed changing aeration rate with and without water addition to maintain the optimun moisture level. Though the composting facilties are provided with appropriate surroundings for compositing, operating temperature is set for decomposition rate. Accordingly control of decomposition phases was analysed by modeling the process of high and low decomposition phases with various operating temperature. A composting model of "The Library of Compost Engineering Software" developed by Roger T. Haug Inc. in U.S.A. was applied in modeling. As result of this study, operation with optimum moisture has more sensitive temperature to aeration fluctuation and lead to higher reaction rate with lower aeration than operation with poor moisture. Decomposition rate in composting facilities depend on slow decomposition phase because high rate decomposing substances already have been decomposed before entire process is not completed. In order to enhance decomposition rate of organics, effective decomposition in slow decomposition phase needs to be focused.

방사선의 조사 유무에 따른 배추와 상추의 발아지수를 평가함으로써 60일 간의 퇴비화 공정에서의 퇴비 품질과 독성을 평가하고자 하였다. 또한 온도, 휘발성 유기화합물, 퇴비 숙성도 등을 평가함으로써 방사선 조사의 퇴비화 에 대한 영향을 분석하였다. 방사선의 높은 에너지는 하수슬러지 내 미생물을 사멸하고 독성유기물을 분해하여 하수슬러지 퇴비 품질을 향상시키는 것으로 확인했다.

A thermoacidophilic bacterium was isolated from the compost and designated as Bacillus sp. SJ-15 by physiological and biochemical characteristics. The optimum temperature and pH for growth were at $55^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.0, respectively. The strain SJ-15 was adapted in process of accelerated high-temperature composting of garbage. The highest viable cell count of composting process reached to $9.2{\times}10^9/ml$ in 16 hours. After running times of 100 days, the composting process showed a reduction rate of approximately 88%, and the concentrations of components were sufficiently high or low to satisfied the standard of organic compost except for salinity.

돈사에서 발생하는 폐수는 주로 돈뇨와 음용수의 누수 및 세척수 등으로 구성되어 있는데, 생물학적인 축산폐수처리법과 퇴비화법 등으로 처리를 하고 있다. 그러나 일반적인 돈사폐수에는 분의 함량이 많아 부유물질의 양이 많고 유기물 등 오염성분의 농도가 높은 특성을 가지고 있어서 기존의 생물학적 축산폐수 처리법으로는 과부하 운전으로 인한 어려움이 있고, 퇴비화법으로는 수분조절제의 소요량이 많은 문제점을 가지고 있다. 대부분의 현지 양돈농가에서는 돈뇨 등 폐수처리의 어려움으로 인하여 분뇨 분리 시설이 있어도 분뇨를 혼합한 슬러리 형태로 퇴비화하고 있다. 따라서 퇴비화 공정에서 수분조절제로 쓰이는 톱밥의 소요량이 돈분만 퇴비화할 때보다 훨씬 많고 기존의 퇴비화 시설도 과부화 상태로 운전하고 있는 실정이다.
