This study performed field examinations of a zero discharge and reuse system developed by Hong and Choi(2009). The system installed one of villages located in Hyoryeong-myeon, Gunwee-gun for the experiments. The zero discharge and reuse system consists of anoxic, FES (Ferrous Electricity System), Oxic, Cralifier processes for water treatments. The main feature of the system is to remove phosphorous by using Fe-ionizing module within the FES process. The water purification performances of the system were evaluated, while any defects for using the system were investigated through the field monitoring. It was found that the removal capacities of T-P, T-N, and BOD of the system meet the required water quality with outstanding performance from T-P by obtaining the results of over 90 % removal rates. The efficiency of T-P removal rate of the system found to be greatly influenced by whether using an automatic washing system to the Fe-ionizing module and conducting replacement of iron plate within a proper period.

The objective of the research is to develop agricultural resue technologies of reclaiming the effluents from a municipal wastewater treatment plant and reusing for irrigated rice paddies. The Suwon wastewater treatment plant was selected for wastewater reuse tests. The control was the plots with groundwater irrigation (TR＃1), the treatment (TR＃2) using polluted stream water as it was, and three others using wastewater after treatment. Three levels of wastewater treatments were employed： the effluent from the wastewater treatment plant (TR＃3), sand filtering after treatment plant(TR＃4), and ultra-violet treatment after sand filtering (TR＃5). The randomized block method was applied to wastewater application to paddy rice with five treatments and six replica. The effects of various wastewater treatment levels on water quality, paddy soil, crop growth, yields, and the health hazards were investigated. The primary results indicate that cultivating rice with reclaimed wastewater irrigation did not cause a problem to adverse effects on crop growth and yields. Overall, wastewater could be used as a practical alternative measure for reclaimed wastewater irrigation. However, long-term monitoring is recommended on the effects on soil chemical characteristics and its related health concerns.

The purpose of this study was to establish the estimation method of irrigation water amount for sewage treated water reuse for agricultural purpose. To calculate the irrigation water amount, we adopted Penman-Monteith for potential evapotranspiration estimation and applied crop coefficient and irrigation efficiency factor. We developed the irrigation water amount calculation program using C language in Xcode environment. The target district for calculation is having 259 ha of agricultural land located near the Jinyeong Clear Water Circulation Center in Hanrim-myeon, Gimhae city. The meteorological data of the study area were obtained from Changwon weather station from 1986 to 2017. Calculated average and maximum of annual mean potential evapotranspiration were 2.72 mm/day and 6.22 mm/day, respectively. We used K-S (Kolmogorov-Smirnov) for goodness-of-fit test to find optimal probability distribution of annual mean and maximum evapotranspiration. As a result, the normal distribution was selected for the appropriate distribution. The annual mean and maximum potential evapotranspiration for 10-year return period by applying normal distribution were 2.88 mm/day and 6.76 mm/day, respectively. Assuming that the irrigation efficiency is 80%, the irrigation water requirement was calculated as $36.05m^3/day/ha$ and $84.45m^3/day/ha$, respectively, when annual mean and maximum potential evapotranspiration were applied. The actual irrigation water amount can be calculated by applying the crop coefficient and cropping days for the study area based on the developed irrigation water amount estimation program in this study.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the water quality change when wastewater applied to study paddy fields. CREAMS-PADDY (Chemical, Runoff and Erosion from Agricultural Management System) model was used to estimate the field-scale water quality. Simulated results were compared with observed data monitored from Byeongjeom study paddy fields which is located near the Suwon sewage treatment plant in Gyeonggi-do. Significance analysis was performed for the three different irrigation water quality level and five fertilizer reduction scenarios using LSD (Least Significant Difference) and DMRT (Duncan's Multiple Range Test). Total nitrogen was found to be significant for both irrigation water quality level and fertilizer reduction while total phosphorus was not. Annual drainage load for total nitrogen was reduced by 66~92 % compared to irrigation load when treated wastewater irrigated to study paddy fields from 2002 to 2007. Total phosphorus was reduced by 70~86 %.

본 연구에서는 국제적으로 사용하고 있는 농업용수 재이용 수질기준을 검토하고 우리나라 하수처리 방류수의 재이용 가능성에 대하여 고찰하였으며, 재이용수로이용하기 위해 필요한 처리대안에 실험 ${\cdot}$ 연구한 결과이다. Biofilter 유출수를 17, 25, 40W의 3가지 램프로 UV소독한 결과 40W 램프에서는 모든 경우에 100%소독되었으며, 25 W와 17 W에서는 전반적으로 97%이상 소독효율을 나타내었으며, 적절하게 설계된 UV소독을 거친 하수처리장 유출수는 USEPA와 WHO의 가장 엄격한 수질기준을 충분히 만족시켜서 보건 ${\cdot}$ 위생적인 문제를 일으키지 않을 것으로 판단된다. 간헐 분사방식의 완속모래여과 처리후 미생물의 처리효율은 TC, FC, E. coli 모두 평균 95% 이상 높은 처리 효율을 나타내었으며, 완속모래여과 후의 평균 농도는 각각 330, 207, 154 MPN/100 mL이었고 탁도와 SS는 모두 약 50%의 처리효율을 나타내었는데, 이는 WHO의 수질기준을 충분히 만족시켰으며, USEPA의 수질기준인 200FC/100mL의 경우에도 적절한 관리가 이루어 질 경우 만족시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 탁도는 평균 0.8NTU로써 먹는물 수질기준인 INTU수준이었고, SS의 경우에도 50% 이상의 처리효율을 나타내어 USEPA의 가장 엄격한 수질기준을 충분히 만족하였으며, 영양물질의 제거에도 기여를 하기 때문에 수계의 오염부하를 줄이는 측면에서도 유리할 것으로 생각된다. 연못시스템을 거치면서 TC, FC, E. coli 모두 85%정도 제거되어 평균미생물농도가 1,000MPN/100 m1 이하이었다. 우리나라의 수질기준으로 WHO 수질기준이 논농사에 적용될 경우 소독이나 여과처리 없이도 재이용할 수 있을 것이라 판단되나, USEPA의 수질기준이 적용될 경우에는 연못시스템만으로도 부족하여 추가적인 처리가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 과거 US EPA의 위험을 완전히 배제한 수질기준을 여러 국가에서 받아들여 사용하고 있으나, WHO에서는 이수질기준이 경제 ${\cdot}$ 사회적으로 불합리한 기준이라 판단하고 보다 완화된 수질기준을 제시하였다. 우리나라에서도 수질기준을 결정할 때 논농사라는 특수한 실정에 맞는 수질 기준을 정해 경제적이고 실용적인 처리방법을 선정하는 것이 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 벼의 경우는 껍질과 추가적인 처리 후 섭취하는 작물이기 때문에 엄격한 수질기준이 필요하지 않을 수 있으나, 장기간 담수상태를 유지함으로써 농민을 포함한 공중보건에 위해성을 줄 가능성이 크므로 세균성미생물 등에 대한 신중한 결정이 필요하다.

This study was carried out to provide fundamental data for reuse of resources and prevention of environmental pollution Actual states of environmental pollution by biological production facilities were investigated. Various pollution loads and quantity of wastes from greenhouse and animal housings estimated. In greenhouse contents of investigation were wastes of plastic cover, noise of heater and fan, air pollutant of heater, and wastes of soilless culture system, etc. In animal housings, those were actual state of livestock waste treatment and reuse, pollutant mass unit discharge, noise pollution, and malodorant, etc. The main pollutants discharged from greenhouses were wastes of plastic cover, rockwool, and waste fluid of nutrient solution. Developments of waste disposal methods for plastic cover and rockwool are required. And recycle technique of nutrient solution for soilless culture should be developed and propagated. With the buildup of legal control, pollutant mass discharged from livestock wastes are, on the decrease. The other side, reuse of livestock excreta increased. Most animal housings are located near the dwelling house. Malodorant and noise from animal housings have bad effects on the rural living conditions. So developments of integrated complex for small scale livestock farms are required.

Water stress has become a major concern in agriculture. Korea suffers from limited agricultural water supply, and wastewater reuse has been recommended as an alternative solution.A study was performed to examine the effects of microorganism concentration in the ponded-water of a paddy rice field with reclaimed-water irrigation for evaluating the microbial risk to farmers and neighborhoodchildren.Most epidemiological studies were performed based on an upland field, and they may not directly applicable to paddy fields. Beta-Poisson model was used to estimate the microbial risk of pathogen ingestion. Their risk value increased significantly high level after irrigation and precipitation.It implies that agricultural activities such as plowing, and fertilizing, and precipitation need be practiced a few days after irrigation considering health risks. The results about field application of the microbial risk assessment using E. coli showed difference according to monitoring time and treatment plot. Result of the microbial risk assessment showed that risk values of ground-water and reclaimed secondary waste water irrigation were lower than directly use of wastewater treatment plants' effluent. This paper should be viewed as a first step in the application of quantitative microbial risk assessment of E. coli to wastewater reuse in a paddy rice farming.
