In this study, photochemical advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) utilizing the Photo Fenton reaction ($Fe^{2+}+H_2O_2+UV$) were investigated in lab-scale experiments for the treatment of livestock wastewater. For the experimets, the livestock wastewater was pretreated by coagulation with $3,000mg/L\;FeCl_3$. The optimal conditions for Photo-Fenton processes were determined: pH was 5, the concentration of ferrous ion (Fe II) was 0.01 M. The concentration of hydrogen peroxide was 0.1 M, and molar ratio ($Fe^{2+}/H_2O_2$) was 0.1. The optimal reaction time was 80 min. Under the optimal condition of Photo-Fenton process, chemical oxygen demand (COD), color and fecal coliform removal efficiencies were about 79, 70, and 99.4%, respectively and sludge production was 7.5 mL from 100 mL of solution.

오존/과산화수소 공정을 이용한 급속 모래여과 처리수 중의 geosmin 제거에서 오존만 20 mg/L 투입한 경우보다 오존 5 mg/L와 과산화수소 0.2 mg/L를 투입하여 처리한 경우가 더 높은 제거율을 보였으며, 오존/과산화수소 공정에 의해 원수 중에 함유된 geosmin의 경우는 급속 모래여과 처리수보다 $12{\sim}27%$ 정도 낮은 제거율을 나타내었다. 급속 모래여과 처리수 중에 함유된 geosmin과 IPMP에 대해 오존 투입농도별로 투입된 과산화수소와 오존의 비($H_2O_2/O_3$)에 따른 제거율을 살펴본 결과, 오존농도가 1 mg/L 이하의 경우에서는 $H_2O_2/O_3$ 비가 적정 비율 이상으로 높아지면 geosmin과 IPMP 제거율이 감소하였으며, 적정 $H_2O_2/O_3$ 비는 실제 정수장에서 사용하고 있는 후오존 투입농도인 $1{\sim}2$ mg/L에서 geosmin의 경우 $0.5{\sim}1$, IPMP의 경우 $0.2{\sim}1$로 나타났으며, 원수 중에 함유된 geosmin 제거를 위한 적정 $H_2O_2/O_3$ 비는 오존 투입농도 $1{\sim}2$ mg/L 범위에서 $1{\sim}3$ 정도로 광범위하게 나타났다. 급속 모래여과 처리수에 함유된 이취미 물질 5종에 대한 오존(0.5, 1.0, 2.0 mg/L) 투입농도별 잔존율을 살펴본 결과, IPMP의 제거율이 60% 이상으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 오존/과산화수소 공정이 오존 단독공정 보다 제거율이 전반적으로 높게 나타났다. 오존/과산화수소 공정을 이용한 BDOC 생성능을 오존 투입농도 $0.5{\sim}2$ mg/L에서 과산화수소 투입농도별로 조사한 실험에서 오존/과산화수소 공정이 오존 단독공정보다 추가적으로 0.9 정도의 BDOC/DOC 비가 상승하여 0.34까지 증가하였다.

To obtain design and operating parameters for advanced water facilities, pilot test consisted of ozonation and GAC filtration was conducted at midstream of Nakdong River. Even though the concentrations were very low, 62 chemicals were detected above $0.005{\mu}g/L$ in raw water. In the preozonation, natural organic matters which could produce THMs and organics such as phenols and amines were effectively removed. The performance of TOC removal of GAC filtration with ozonation was better than GAC filtration alone and adsorption capacity of GAC adsorbers were ranged 3~6mg-TOC/g-carbon. And also the life of GAC adsorber for removing TOC was predicted more than 1 years if ozonation is introduced. This indicates that biological degradation of organics happened in GAC filters. Most organics detected at ppt level were removed below detection limit by GAC filtration with ozonation. These results show that ozonation and GAC filtration are the reliable and safe process for organic contaminants and chlorinated byproducts control at Nakdong River.

급수시스템에서 박테리아 재성장의 영양원이 되는 DOC를 정수처리 공정에서 효과적으로 저감시키기 위하여 생분해와 흡착으로 구분하여 네 종류의 DOC로 분획하였고 각각의 제거특성을 연구하였다. 네 종류의 분획 DOC는 흡착성을 가지면서 생분해성이 없는 AnBDOC, 흡착성이 없고 생분해성만이 있는 nABDOC, 흡착과 생분해성을 동시에 나타내는 ABDOC, 흡착과 생분해가 되지 않는 nAnBDOC로 구분하여 분석하였다. 낙동강 중류에 위치한 정수처리장 원수의 조사결과, ADOC가 BDOC보다 약간 높은 비율로 존재하고 있으며, 오존산화 후에는 분획 DOC 중에서 AnBDOC 농도가 가장 많이 제거되었으며, 제거율은 nAnBDOC가 49.5%로 가장 높았다. BAC 공정으로 제거된 분획 DOC 중에는 ADOC가 약 91%를 차지하고 있으므로 흡착에 의한 제거가 우수한 것으로 나타났고, 잔류하는 TDOC 0.50 mg/L 중에는 ADOC가 0.46 mg/L(67.7%)을 차지하고 있으므로 배수관내 미생물 증식 및 소독부생성물의 생성 방지를 위하여 BAC 공정상에서 EBCT증가, 재생주기 등의 운전조건을 개선해야 하는 것으로 나타났다. 정수처리 공정에서 DOC분획 결과로부터 흡착이나 생분해 등으로 제거 가능량을 파악할 수 있으므로 정수처리 공정에 유용한 것으로 나타났다. 염소처리하는 정수처리 공정에서 DOC분획 농도와 밀접한 관계를 가지는 AOX의 분석결과, AOX 7.1 ${\mu}g$/L은 오존산화와 활성탄흡착 공정으로 0.51 ${\mu}g$/L까지 충분히 제거되었다.

본 연구에서는 정수장에서 사용후 폐기된 활성탄을 전자파로 조사 capillary 복원 능력을 조사하였고 활성화제의 종류 및 량에 따른 비표면적 변화에 대하여 연구하였다. 수증기를 활성화제로 사용한 경우에는 재생의 능력은 우수하나, 폐활성탄에 함유하고 있는 수분과 반응하여 자동이송에 문제점이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 $CO_2$ gas로 재생한 결과 이송의 문제점도 해결되고 비표면적도 신탄에 비해 10-20%향상된 것으로 나타났다. 전자파의 세기에 있어서는 2.75kw 공급시 제일 좋은 재생효과가 나타났다. 각 변수에 의한 실험 후 반응물을 ASAP, SEM등을 이용하여 분석한 결과 전자파의 세기와 활성화제 종류 및 양에 따라 복원 능력이 다르게 나타났다. 특히 공기를 활성화제로 사용한 경우에는 복원능력의 오차가 심하게 나타났다. 이는 전자파에 의해 활성탄이 가열된 상태에서 공기의 량이 과다하게 투입, 산화, 연소되어 수율이 떨어지는 것으로 확인되었다. Microwave를 이용하여 폐활성탄을 재생시킨 결과 일반적으로 사용하고 있는 rotary kiln보다 우수한 재생효과가 나타났고, 경제성에서도 앞서는 것으로 나타났으나 대량 생산이 어렵다는 것이 단점으로 나타났다.

The use of water by cities is increasing owing to industrialization, the concentration of population, and the enhancement of the standard of living. Accordingly, the amount of waste water is also increasing, and the degree of pollution of the water system is rising. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to remove organisms and suspended particles as well as the products of eutrophication such as nitrates and phosphates. This study developed a high-end treatment engineering solution with maximum efficiency and lower costs by researching and developing a advanced treatment engineering solution with the use of Biosorption. As a result, the study conducted a test with a $50m^3/day$ Pilot Scale Plant by developing treatment engineering so that only the secondary treatment satisfies the standard of water quality and which provided optimal treatment efficiency along with convenient maintenance and management. The removal of organisms, which has to be pursued first for realizing nitrification during the test period, was made in such a way that there would be no oxidation by microorganisms in the reactor while preparing oxygen as an inhibitor for the growth of microorganism in the course of moving toward the primary settling pond. The study introduced microorganisms in the endogeneous respiration stage to perform adhesion, absorption, and filtering by bringing them into contact with the inflowing water with the use of a sludge returning from the secondary settling pond. Also a test was conducted to determine how effective the microorganisms are as an inner source of carbon. The HRT(Hydraulic Retention Time) in the nitrification tank (aerobic tank) could be reduced to two hours or below, and the stable treatment efficiency of the process using the organisms absorbed in the NAR reactor as a source of carbon could be proven. Also, given that the anaerobic condition of the pre-treatment tank becomes basic in the area of phosphate discharge, it was found that there was excellent efficiency for the removal of phosphate when the pre-treatment tank induced the discharge of phosphate and the polishing reactor induced the uptake of phosphate. The removal efficiency was shown to be about 94.4% for $BOD_5$. 90.7% for $COD_{Cr}$ 84.3% for $COD_{Mn}$, 96.0% for SS, 77.3% for TN, and 96.0% for TP.

Microalgae is known as one alternative energy source of the fossil fuel with the small size of $5{\sim}50{\mu}m$ and negative charge. Currently, the cost of microalgae recovery process take a large part, about 20 - 30% of total operating cost. Thus, the microalgae recovery method with low cost is needed. In this study, the optimum current for Scenedesmus dimorphus recovery process using electrocoagulation techniques was investigated. Under the electrical current, Al metal in anode electrode is oxidized to oxidation state of $Al^{3+}$. In the cathode electrode, the water electrolysis generated $OH^-$ which combine with $Al^{3+}$ to produce $Al(OH)_3$. This hydroxide acts as a coagulant to harvest microalgae. Before applying in 1.5 L capacity electrocoagulation reactor, Scenedesmus dimorphus was cultured in 20 L cylindrical reactor to concentration of 1 OD. The microalgae recovery efficiency of electrocoagulation reactor was evaluated under different current conditions from 0.1 ~ 0.3 A. The results show that, the fastest and highest recovery efficiency were achieved at the current or 0.3 A, which the highest energy efficiency was achieved at 0.15 A.

In the present study, an experimental design methodology was used to optimize the adsorptive removal of Basic Yellow 13 (BY13) using Turkish coal powder. A central composite design (CCD) consisting of 31 experiments was employed to evaluate the simple and combined effects of the four independent variables, initial dye concentration (mg/L), adsorbent dosage (g/L), temperature ($^{\circ}C$) and contact time (min) on the color removal (CR) efficiency (%) and optimizing the process response. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed a high coefficient of determination value ($R^2=0.947$) and satisfactory prediction of the polynomial regression model was derived. Results indicated that the CR efficiency was not significantly affected by temperature in the range of $12-60^{\circ}C$. While all other variables significantly influenced response. The highest CR (95.14%), estimated by multivariate experimental design, was found at the optimal experimental conditions of initial dye concentration 30 mg/L, adsorbent dosage 1.5 g/L, temperature $25^{\circ}C$ and contact time 10 min.

In this study, the coating of an Al-Cr layer on the surface of a Zircaloy-4 alloy was carried out through plasma pretreatment coating and a laser surface melting process. Two different conditions for laser treatment, severe or minimal surface melting of the Zr alloy substrate, were applied to form the final coating. When there was significant surface melting of the Zr alloy, the solidification microstructure of the newly formed coating layer was mainly composed of needle-shaped $Al_3Zr$, Al(Cr) and $Al_7Cr$ phases. On the other hand, the solidification microstructure of the coating layer was mainly composed of Al(Cr) and $Al_7Cr$ phases when there was minimal surface melting of Zr base in the laser process. However, when the coating was maintained at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, significant inter-diffusion occurred between the phases in the coating. As a result, the upper part of the coating layer was observed to mainly consist of $Al_3Zr$ and $Al_8Cr_5$ phases, regardless of the laser treatment conditions.
