KSMBR process is dynamic state advanced wastewater treatment applied with Trisectional Aeration (TSA) mode combined with membrane. TSA was remodeled conventional intermittent aeration which was operated nonaeration-aeration. TSA operates nonaeration ($N_1$) - aeration (A) - nonaeration ($N_2$) in Trisectional Aeration Reactor (TAR). Organics of influent could be nearly consumed to denitrification without influence by remained DO in TAR and it could be operated about sludge return ratio of 1Q (influent base). The purpose of this study was to apply KSMBR to the full-scale plant and to evaluate efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus removal and TSA operation. The result of this study, average CODcr/T-N and CODcr/T-P ratio were 7.8 and 59.6, respectively. BOD, TCODcr, SS, T-N, T-P, E-coli removal efficiency were 98.4, 95.2, 73.0, 69.6, 99.95 %, respectively. KSMBR obtained high removal efficiencies of C, N and P when it applied full-scale plant.

Phased isolation intrachannel clarifier ditch process developed in this study is an enhanced biological nutrient removal process employing two ditches with intrachannel clarifiers. Bench-scale phased isolation ditch process was used to evaluate the system performance on municipal wastewater and detailed assessment of internal behavior in a ditch and each reactions. When the system was operated at the HRTs of 6~12hours, SRTs of 9~31 days, and cycle times of 4hours, the system showed removals of BOD, TN, and TP as high as 88~97%, 73~78%, and 65~90%, respectively. The internal behavior were well matched on each reactions such as nitrification, denitrification, and phosphorus release and uptake. As the SRT became longer, TN removal increased gradually, whereas TP removal decreased contrarily. However, the system was capable of producing an effluent TP concentration 1mg/L or less even at longer SRTs except the case of solids discharge by malfunction of intra-clarifier occurred by its geometrical limit. The system performance slightly decreased by hydraulic shock loading(increasing of influent flowrate and decreasing of system HRT). However, the higher system performance could be achieved again after four cycles. Thus, the system reliability could be successfully achieved short-term hydraulic shock loading that occurred in medium- and small-sized wastewater treatment plants suffering fluctuation of influent quality and flowrate during wet season.

두 개의 간헐반응조, 막분리조, 탈기조로 구성된 생물학적 MBR고도처리 공정에 동일한 유입수량과 수질의 하수가 유입되는 경우 운전 온도 및 SRT (Sludge Retention Time)변화에 따른 질소제거 특성을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 파악하였다. SRT가 25일이고 운전온도가 $25^{\circ}C$인 경우 간헐반응조를 간헐폭기 시키는 경우에 운전온도 $13^{\circ}C$의 59%에서 31%로 질소제거효율이 급격히 떨어지는데, 이는 운전온도 $13^{\circ}C$에 비해서 간헐반응조의 RBO (Readily Biodegradable Organic) 농도가 낮아져서 발생한 현상으로 파악되었다. 운전온도 $25^{\circ}C$에서 SRT를 12.6일로 운전하는 경우 간헐반응조 RBO농도는 증가하고 질소제거 효율은 회복되었다. 간헐반응조를 갖는 MBR시스템에서 SRT와 운전온도가 간헐반응조 RBO농도에 미치는 영향은 좀더 깊게 연구되어야 한다.

Advanced Phase Isolation Ditch (APID) process was studied to develop economic retrofitting technology, for the plants where retrofitting of common activated sludge process is required. In this study, to evaluate the effluent BOD, SS, T-N, and T-P concentrations as process capable and stable parameters for treating municipal wastewater, a demonstration plant was installed and operated in the existing sewage treatment plant of P city. During this study, the average effluent BOD, SS, T-N, and T-P concentrations were 4.56, 5.20, 9.30, and 1.75 mg/L at the conventional mode and 3.95, 3.17, 7.65, and 1.18 mg/L at the modified mode. The modified mode (BOD: 3.69, SS: 3.19, T-N: 1.27, and T-P: 0.69) increased the process capability more than the conventional mode (BOD: 1.80, SS: 1.05, T-N: 2.17, and T-P: 0.15) in this study. If process capability over 1.0, this process is capable and stable to treat wastewater. Therefore, newly developed APID process with modified intermittent aeration mode can be one of the useful processes for stable organic matter and nutrients removal.

The purpose of this research was evaluated economical effect to apply alternative external carbon source. Conventional activated sludge process in municipal wastewater treatment plant was adapted and introduced to Biological nutrient removal processes to meet the newly enforced effluent quality standard for nutrient removal in Korea. Low $COD/NH_4^+-N$ ratio and higher nutrient concentration of influent characteristics force to inject external carbon source for denitrifying recycled nitrate. In the most case, methanol was used as external carbon source. But Methanol is expensive and very dangerous in handling. So we could find cheaper and safer external carbon source substituted methanol in last study. This alternative external carbon source is named RCS(recoverd carbon source) and a by-product of fine chemical product at chemical plant. When RCS was applied real municipal wastewater treatment plant, average $55\~65\%$ of T-N removal efficiency, 8.8mg/l of effluent T-N concentration, 11.3mg/l of effleunt COD concentration were obtained without effluent COD increase as against used methanol. To apply RCS in municipal wastewater treatment plant obtain approximately $\74.5%$ expenditure cost reduction in comparison with methanol dosage cost.

In this study, the treatment of domestic wastewater in a field-scale membrane submerged intermittently aerated activated sludge process($210m^3/day$) was investigated under difference aeration methods. Operating temperature was 5.4 to 25.0 and membrane used in this study is a polyethylene hollow fiber membrane(pore size $0.4{\mu}m$). The range of operating flux was $9.7{\sim}24.4l/m^2-h$ and membrane permeates periodically operated for 7min followed idle for 3 min. The results showed that MIA(modified intermittent aeration) was more efficient in nitrogen and phosphorus removal. The removal efficiencies of T-N and T-P were 73.0% and 69.6% for CIA(conventional intermittent aeration) and 57.5%, 58.6% for MIA (modified intermittent aeration). With application of modified intermittent aeration, DO reached nearly Omg/l within 10 minutes after air off. Organics of influent could be entirely consumed to the denitrification and the P-release without the influence by remained DO in intermittent aeration reactor. Therefore, newly developed KSMBR(Kowaco-KMS-Ssangyoung Membrane Bio-Reactor) process with modified intermittent aeration can be one of the useful process for stable nitrogen and phosphorus removal.

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) can be classified as a type of self-immobilized microbial aggregates measuring more than 0.2 mm. It offers the option to simultaneously remove COD, N, and P that occur in different zones inside a granule. Also, AGS is characterized by high precipitability, treatability with high organic loading, and high tolerance to low temperature. In this study, a sequencing batch reactor inoculated with AGS (AGS-SBR) is a new advanced wastewater treatment process that was proven to grow AGS with integrated nutrient removal and low C/N ratio. A pilot plant, AGS-SBR with a capacity of 225 ㎥/d was installed at an S sewage treatment plant in Gyeonggi-do. The results of the operation showed that the water quality of the effluent indicated that the value of BOD5 was 1.5 mg/L, CODMn was 11.4 mg/L, SS was 6.2 mg/L, T-N was 13.2 mg/L, and T-P was 0.197 mg/L, and all of these values reliably satisfied an effluent standard (I Area). In winter, the T-N treatment efficiency at a lower temperature of less than 11℃ also showed reliability to meet the effluent standard of the I Area (20 mg/L or less). Analysis of microbial community in AGS showed a higher preponderance of beneficial microorganisms involved in denitrification and phosphorus accumulation compared with activated sludge. The power consumption and sludge disposal cost were reduced by 34.7% and 54.9%, respectively, compared to the domestic SBR type sewage treatment plant with a processing capacity of 1,000 ㎥/d or less.

일본의 "유역별 하수도정비종합계획"(이하 '유총계획') 및 비와호 유역하수도를 소개하고 이를 바탕으로 국내에서 2013년도부터 수립 시행되고 있는 "유역하수도정비계획"의 발전방향 등을 제시하였다. 일본의 유총계획은 환경기본법에서 정하는 수질환경기준을 준수하기 위한 계획으로 비와호의 경우는 지자체의 조례에 의한 가중 배수기준보다 더 엄격한 기준을 적용하여 수립 시행하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 특히 비와호의 경우는 응집제첨가다단소화탈질법 등의 고도처리공법을 건설초기단계부터 적용하여 방류수의 수질항목별 농도가 BOD 0.9 mg/L, SS 0.6 mg/L, T-N 5.5 mg/L, T-P 0.06 mg/L였으며 BOD의 처리효율은 99.5%로 매우 높았다. 도입초기단계인 국내 유역하수도계획의 발전을 위해서는 평가항목의 다양화, 비용최소화, 건설 및 유지 보조금제도 개선, 경제적 개념의 배출부하량조정시스템의 도입, 유역하수도 개념 적립 등의 적용 방법 등을 장기적인 관점에서 연구할 필요가 있다.

음식물류 폐기물 자원화과정에서 발생하는 폐수는 BOD 20,000~150,000mg/L이며, 매립금지로 적정수준까지 처리되어야 한다. 그러나 기존의 폐수처리시설에 의해서는 10일 이하로 처리하기가 불가능하다. (주)에코데이는 높은 산소전달효율, 높은 미생물(MLVSS) 유지와 유기물 농도 모두가 상향류의 PFR흐름을 갖는 ER-1 반응기를 이용하여 2~4일 이내로 처리할 수 있는 기술을 개발하였다. 하루 20톤의 음식물을 퇴비화 하는 H군 음식물 자원화시설에 Pilot plant를 설치하고, 자원화 과정에서 발생하는 고농도폐수(평균 BOD 64,431mg/L)와 저농도폐수(평균 BOD 16,500mg/L)에 대해 6개월간 실험하였다. 저농도폐수의 처리를 위해서 ER-1(HRT 2.5d)과 후단에 고도처리공정을 적용하였으며, 이때 전체공정에서 제거되는 유기물의 대부분이 ER-1을 통해 제거되었다. 저농도폐수 Pilot plant의 처리효율은 BOD 99%, COD 98%, SS 99%, T-N 97%, T-P 96%이다. 고농도 폐수 처리공정은 ER-1을 직렬로 배치하여 2단계 ER-1(1차 HRT 2.5d, 2차 HRT 1.5d) 후 고액분리를 통해 하수연계(BOD 2,000mg/L 이하)로 계획하였다. Pilot 실험결과 고농도 폐수에 대해서도 BOD 97%, COD 84%, SS 98%, T-N 66%, T-P 95%의 안정적인 처리효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 고농도 폐수처리시에 생물반응기의 냉각시설 없이 고온($50^{\circ}C$)으로 운전되었으나, 온도 조절 부분을 개선한다면 더 높은 효율을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

독립영양탈질은 추가적인 질소 제거를 위해 메탄올과 같은 고가의 외부탄소원을 필요로 하지 않는다는 면에서 효과적이고 경제적인 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 고농도 질소 농도를 함유한 하수에 대한 황탈질 평가를 통해 설계 및 운영인자의 도출에 필요한 기초자료를 확보하고자 하였다. 입상황으로 충진된 황탈질조는 유동형 스폰지 담체를 이용하여 영양염류를 제거하는 고도처리 공정 후단에 파일럿 규모로 설치되었다($Q=18\;m^3/day$). 외부 알칼리 주입 없이 황탈질조 유입수 내 알칼리(평균 $169.4{\pm}20.8\;mg$ $CaCO_3/L$)만을 활용하였고, 2.45시간의 체류시간으로 운영된 황탈질조 내 추가적인 질산성 질소의 제거를 통해 최종 처리수의 총질소가 7.0 mg T-N/L 이하로 도출되었다. 파일럿 설비 평가를 통해 동절기 저수온($15^{\circ}C$ 이하)에서도 60~80%의 안정적인 황탈질 제거효율을 나타내었으며, 2.78 ppm 이내의 Alum 주입 시 황탈질 성능에 거의 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 황탈질조에서 제거된 질산성 질소 대비 소모된 알칼리도는 $4.09{\pm}1.29\;g$ $CaCO_3/g$ ${NO_3}^-$-N로 도출되었고(이론값 4.57 g $CaCO_3/g$ ${NO_3}^-$-N), 황탈질조 유입수 내 질산성 질소의 전환에 필요한 알칼리도 이상을 포함하였다. 입상황의 소모량은 943.8 g S/day로서, 구형입상황의 마모 및 역세 시의 유실 등에 의해 이론적 소모량인 400.1 g S/day 대비 2.4배 정도 높게 나타났다.
