본 논문에는 자가영양균의 최대비성장율 추정법이 제시되었다. 먼저 질산화균의 농도가 질산화 된 암모니아, 슬러지 일령 및 사멸계수를 이용하여 시뮬레이션 되었고, 다음단계로 과잉암모니아를 공급하여 질산화균의 호흡율을 측정하였다. 자가영양균의 최대비성장율은 ${\mu}_{max,A}\;=\;OUR_{max,A}/Y_A$의 관계를 통해 계산되어질 수 있으며 추정된 최대비성장율은 운전기간에 걸쳐 일정한 값을 가지지 앉고 시간에 따라 변화한다는 결과를 얻었다. 본 연구를 통해 최대호흡율을 이용한 최대비성장율의 동적 추정법이 수행되었고, 일정한 최대비성장율를 이용한 처리장 운전결과 예측은 처리장 거동을 예측할 수 없으며 활성슬러지공정의 성능예측을 위한 시뮬레이션을 위해서는 동적 추정된 매개변수의 사용이 필요함을 확인하였다.

The effects of initial solid concentration and microwave irradiation (MWI) time on the hydrolysis of waste activated sludge (WAS) were investigated. MWI time strongly influenced WAS hydrolysis for all initial solid concentrations of 8.20, 31.51, and 52.88 g VSS/L. For all WAS, the volatile suspended solids (VSS) solubilization degree ranged from 35.6% to 38.4% during a total MWI time of 10 min. Soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) concentration increased at a rate proportional to the decrease of VSS during the MWI. However, the clearly different VSS solubilization patterns that were observed during the MWI were explained by the 2-step hydrolysis of WAS, consisting of the initial disintegration of the easily degradable part of the sludge, followed by the subsequent disintegration of the hardly degradable part of the sludge. WAS hydrolysis rates for 3 to 6 min of MWI were significantly lower than those for less than 3 min, or more than 6 min. From these results, 3 min MWI time and WAS of 31.51 g VSS/L (centrifugal thickener WAS) showed the most efficient hydrolysis of WAS at 36.0%. The profiles of total nitrogen (T-N) concentrations corresponded well to the SCOD increases in terms of the empirical formula of bacterial cell mass ($C_5H_7O_2N$). The negligible T-N increase and pH decrease during WAS hydrolysis by MWI will allow the application of this process to subsequent biological processes, such as anaerobic digestion.

Pilot Plant 에서 도시하수가 처리되는 경우와 전 처리된 분뇨가 하수에 섞여 처리되는 두 가지 종류의 처리장하수를 대상으로 식종과 무식종의 경우로 나누어 활성슬러지의 정착 단계까지 조사하였다. 원생동물의 천이과정은 편모충류, 육질충류, 섬모충류 순이며, 섬모충류 내에서는 자유 유영형이 먼저 출현하고 포복형과 고착형이 차츰 증가하여 활성슬러지 원생동물상을 구성한다. 정상적으로 가동되는 처리장 포기조의 원생동물분포는 시운전초기단계의 원생동물 분포와 다르며, 시운전 안정화 단계에서의 원생동물 분포와 유사하였다. 포기조의 원생동물은 유입수에서 유래하는 것으로 판단되며, 포기조에 유입된 후 환경조건에 맞는 종이 증식하여 활성슬러지를 구성한다. 슬러지식종은 활성슬러지 원생동물 군집구조 형성에 영향을 미치지 못했으나 활성슬러지의 안정화기간을 다소 단축시키는 효과가 있었다. 처리장별로 활성슬러지 원생동물의 종류는 비슷하나 개체수는 달라 유입수의 성상에 영향을 받는 것으로 판단된다. Pilot plant 가동 후반기에는 섬모충류 비율이 70%전후, 개체수도 3,000∼5,000 개체/$m\ell$이며, 유출수의 BOD 농도도 안정적으로 나타나 정상적으로 가동된다고 판단된다.

활성 슬러지 하수처리장의 주요 Process Control Variables인 Sludge age와 Sludge recycle올 고려하여 폐슬러지의 유량 ($Q_w$)을 효과적으로 결정하기 위한 두가지의 식이 개발되었다. 아울러 반송 슬러지의 일부를 폐슬러지로 배출할 경우에는 우선 순환비 (R)를, 포기조내의 활성슬러지의 일부를 폐슬러지로 배출할 경우에는 2차침전지의 슬러지 침전효율($S_f$)을 정확히 측정하여 개발된 식을 이용하면 폐슬러지의 유량을 용이하게 산정할 수 있다는 사실이 Sensitivity analysis의 결과로 밝혀졌다.

A laboratory-scale submerged membrane bioreactor (MBR) was continuously operated for 100 d at an infinite sludge retention time (SRT) with the aim of identifying possible relation between the filterability of mixed liquor and sludge properties, such as extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), soluble microbial products (SMP), viscosity of mixed liquor, zeta potential of flocs and particle size distributions (PSD). Research results confirmed that MBR can operate with a complete sludge retention ensuring good treatment performances for COD and $NH_3-N$. However, the long term operation (about 40 d) of MBR with no sludge discharge had a negative influence on sludge filterability, and an increase in membrane fouling rates with the time was observed. There as a strong correlation between the sludge filterability and the fouling rate. Among the different sludge properties parameters, the concentration SMP and EPS had a more closely correlation with the sludge filterability. The concentrations of SMP, especially SMP with MW above 10 kDa, had a strong direct correlation to the filterability of mixed sludge. The protein fractions in EPS were biodegradable and available for microorganism metabolism after about 60 days, and the carbohydrates in EPS had a significantly negative effect on sludge filterability in MBR at an infinite SRT.

New problems have been recently posed on the abnormal foaming (Scum) in an aeration tank and the sludge flotation in a final sedimentation tank during the activated sludge process. However, the activities of the causing bacteria, Nocardia-amarae in an aeration tank have not been searched out at all. Therefore, in this article the activities of Nocardia-amarae in an aeration tank have been closely examined by means of the changes of (F/M) ratio, SRT and inflowing substrate using continuous type and fed-batch type. Summarized results of experiments are as follows. 1. Regrading continuous culture when synthetic wastewater was used substrate neither the increase in the number of Nocardia-amarae in the aeration tank nor the Occurrence of Scum was observed. 2. In the case of fed-batch culture, Nocardia-amarae in the aeration tank increased due to the partial change in substrate and the effect of SRT was significant. 3. Once the scum was formed and the quantity of added Nocardia-amarae and substrate were not changed, the effect of STR was not significant.

A lot of sludges occur during an activated sludge treatment process of the washing wastewater and by-product waste in the cuttlefish processing manufacture. The sludges give also out a bad smell, and their amicable reclamation is very difficult because of the limited area of the filling-up. To reduce the heavy weight and large volume of the sludges, they was burning up. After the burning up at 350t for 2hrs the weight(volume) of the sludges were reduced to 5% level of the initial value. In contents of the bad heavy metals for human after the burning up, cadmium and lead metal were slightly detected, while mercury and the bad others not detected.

This paper discussed about the effect of Zoogloea ramigera on the initial microorganism attachment and the biofilm growth. The additions of 5, 10 and 15%(w/w) of Zoogoea ramigera were facilitated for the initial attachment on the surface of the acryl disk. At biofilm growth, the more Zoogoea ramikera added to the activated sludge, the more biofilm dry weight was obtained. In order to get the stable blofllm and to mlnlmlze the start-up periods, Initial biofilm formation using activated sludge with floe forming microorganisms like Zoogloea ramigera was recommended rather than that without floe forming microorganisms.

The enzyme Xeronine was investigated as a microbial activating substance in biological wastewater treatment processes. Xeronine as bio-stimulant was injected in the anaerobic sludge and the activated sludge treating wastewater in order to examine the effect of hidden benefits. Bio-stimulant did not show significant improvement of anaerobic treatablity. In the aerobic system, higher bio-stimulant dose condition resulted in slightly more removal of nitrogen and phosphorus. Floc aggregation and zone settling velocity as solid-liquid separation factors in activated sludge systems was enhanced by bio-stimulant. Effects of bio-stimulants injection on improvement of water quality and microbial activity did not clear in terms of normal operation conditions.

The treatment performances of anaerobic-aerobic activated sludge process were investigated under various operation conditions. The treatment system proposed in this study gave a relatively stable performance against hourly change of the flow rate and showed a satisfactory removal of nitrogen and phosphorus compounds under experimental conditions. The recycle ratio of mixed liquor from aerobic to anaerobic region and peak coefficient primarily controlled the extent of nitrogen removal. The recycle ratio had the optimum values which were determined by the microbial activities of nitrification and denitrification. The behavior of the treatment unit could be simulated by using the kinetic equations and reactor models which considered the treatment units as complete mixing tanks.
