본 연구에서는 용수재이용을 위해 생활하수를 지하흐름형 인공습지로 처리한 후 연못시스템에 연결시켜 미생물과 각 수질인자들의 처리효과를 분석하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. SS의 농도는 얼음이 녹은 3월 초순에서 4월 초순까지는 10 mg $L^{-1}$ 이하의 매우 낮은 농도로 우리 나라 방류수 수질기준보다 낮은 농도를 유지할 수 있었으나 겨울이나 여름 특정기간에 농도가 높아서, 용수 재이용시 보건 ${\cdot}$ 위생적인 측면과 더불어 이용자에게 심미적인 불편함이 없어야 하므로 유출부에 여과시설 등 관리대책을 검토할 필요가 있을 것으로 생각된다. $BOD_5$는 식물의 생장과 미생물의 성장이 저조한 동절기의 농도 증가현상과 이들의 활동이 활발한 성장기의 감소현상을 뚜렷히 나타내었으나, 전체적으로는 국제적인 농업용수 재이용 수질기준보다 낮은 수준으로서 우려할 사항이 아닐 것으로 판단된다. 영양물질의 경우 DO가 상승한 호기성상태에서 T-N, T-P 농도가 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 수질개선을 목적으로 연못시스템을 이용할 경우 3월중에 상층부를 유출시키고 3월 이후에는 수심을 낮게 유지하여 심수층까지 호기성상태를 유지하는 것이 수질관리에 유리할 것으로 판단된다. 지하흐름형 인공습지에서의 미생물 처리효율은 TC, FC, E. coli 모두 평균 92 ${\sim}$ 96% 이상 높은 처리 효율을 보였으며, 인공습지 유출수가 연못시스템을 거치면서 추가로 평글 83 ${\sim}$ 90% 이상 제거되어 평균 대장균농도가 1,200MPN 100 $mL^{-1}$ 로써 인공습지와 연못시스템을 연계 ${\cdot}$ 적용한 후 농업용수로 재이용하거나 수계로 방류할경우 보건 ${\cdot}$ 위생상의 문제를 크게 줄일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 미생물의 소독은 대부분 태양광에 의해서 이루어지기 때문에 본 연구와 같이 연못 상층부에서 유출시킬 경우 높은 처리효율을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 생각하며, 대장균과 연못 내에 존재하는 생물들 사이의 상호작용을 정확히 이해하여 적절한 관리대책을 마련 할 경우 안정적인 방류수 농도를 확보할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 자연정화로서 하수처리수를 고도 처리할 수 있는 인공습지와 연못시스템을 연계처리 하면 높은 미생물 소독효율을 나타내어 보건 ${\cdot}$ 위생상의 문제를 크게 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 인공습지와 연계한 연못시스템의 하수처리방식은 간단한 구조, 큰 완충능력, 적은 슬러지 발생, 간소한 유지 ${\cdot}$ 관리의 장점을 가지고 있어서, 소규모하수처리와 농업용수 재이용 기술로서 적용가능성이 클것으로 판단된다.

A pilot study was performed from July 1998 to December 2002, including winter performance, to examine seasonal performance of a constructed wetland and subsequent pond system for treatment of sewage in small communities of Korea. Pond was operated as a intermittent-discharge pond during winter period, and continuous flow system during growing season; its effects was evaluated from December 2001 to April 2003. The subsurface flow (SSF) wetland was satisfactory for treating sewage with good removal efficiency even during the winter period. The wetland effluent concentrations of $BOD_5$ and TSS were often higher in winter than in the growing season, but this was explained by the higher loading rates, rather than lower removal efficiency. The relatively poor-quality wetland effluent was further polished during winter in the pond. The upper layer of the pond water column became remarkably clear immediately after ice melt. In the growing season, ponds could be operated as a continuous flow system to remove nutrients and pathogens, and the effluent of pond could be reused as a supplemental irrigation water without risk of infection by sewage-borne pathogens as well as causing adverse effect on growth and yield. Overall, the wetland system was found to be adequate for treating sewage with stable removal efficiency, and the intermittent-discharge pond was found to be effective for further polishing if necessary. Therefore, the combination of a wetland and subsequent pond system and reuse of effluent as crop irrigation water is recommended as a practical alternative to treat sewage in Korean small communities, and partial discharge of pond water in March is suggested.

The objectives of this study were to develop a linked watershed-waterbody modeling system and to assess the impacts of indirect wastewater reuse on irrigation water quality. The Osan stream watershed within Gyeonggi-do of South Korea was selected for this study. The linked modeling system was composed of the SWAT (Soil and water assessment tool) and QUALKO2 models. The SWAT model was calibrated and validated using the stream discharge and water quality data from 2010 to 2011. Runoff and non-point source pollutants from each subbasin and stream discharge from 1980 to 2009 were simulated by the SWAT model and applied to the QUALKO2 model. The QUALKO2 model was calibrated and validated under the conditions of low water and normal discharges, respectively. Finally, The 10-day irrigation water quality from April to September was simulated. The statistical measures of coefficient of determination ($R^2$), reliability index (RI), and efficiency index (EI) were used to evaluate the system performance. The $R^2$, RI and EI values ranged from 0.5 to 1.0, 1.03 to 1.92, and -35.03 to 0.95, respectively. The 10-day irrigation water quality showed the concentrations of BOD and coliform exceeded the water quality guidelines for wastewater reuse. The linked modeling system can be a useful tool to estimate non-point source pollutant loads in watershed and to control the water quality of effluent from a wastewater treatment plant and irrigation water in the downstream waterbody.

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 neighborhood children. 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 wastewater 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.

The feasibility study of UV-disinfection system was performed for disinfection of effluent from wastewater treatment plant. Three low-pressure UV lamps of 17, 25, and 41 W were examined with various flow rates. Low-pressure UV lamps of 17W were examined with various turbidity, DOM (dissolved organic matter), and SS (suspended solid). The pilot plant was a flow-through type UV-disinfection system, and the range of exposure time varied from 5 to 40 seconds, turbidity from 0 to 40 NTU, DOM from 0 to 30 mg/L, and SS from 10 to 40 mg/L. The 41W lamp demonstrated complete disinfection showing no survival ratio in all the experimental conditions, and generally 17W and 25W lamps also showed high removal ratio over 97%. For the same UV dose (UV intensity times exposure time), high intensity-short exposure conditions showed better disinfection efficiency than low intensity-long exposure conditions. While the effects of turbidity and DOM were not apparent, the effects of SS was significant on the disinfection efficiency which indicates that SS control before UV-disinfection appears to be necessary to increase removal efficiency. Considering characteristics of effluent from existing wastewater treatment plants, cost-effectiveness, stable performance, and minimum maintenance, the flow-through type UV-disinfection system with high intensity and low-pressure lamps was thought to be a competitive disinfection system for wastewater reclamation.

The application of domestic wastewater on rice paddies results in the accumulation of sodium(Na$^+$) to the soil. Excessive concentration of sodium may cause the deterioration of the physical characteristics of the soil, change in the osmosis of the soil, destruction of soil aggregates as well as ion toxicity due to sodium accumulation. Using domestic wastewater as irrigation water should be preceded by measures to prevent or control the soil salinization caused by sodium. Agricultural reuse of domestic wastewater were found not to cause serious problems with food safety due to heavy metals. However, pre-treatment using ultraviolet or ozone is recommended to reduce the number of bacteria and gem and for public health reasons. Using domestic wastewater has shown that reducing the standard application of chemical fertilizers by as much as 50% reduced the harvesting index by only 10%. This study has shown that it is feasible to reuse domestic wastewater on rice paddies. In order to facilitate the application, it is deemed necessary to establish wastewater treatment technologies in the future, to review criteria for recycling domestic wastewater for agricultural purposes such as conditions of soil and cropping system and to resolve conflicts with farmers and public health issues.

다양화되는 물 수요와 기상 이변 등의 영향으로 극심해지는 가뭄에 대비하여 대체 수자원의 확보는 수자원 연구의 매우 중요한 부분이 되었다. 다양한 대체 수자원 중 하수처리장의 방류수는 양호한 수질과 비교적 예측이 가능한 방류량으로 인해 농업용수나 공업용수 혹은 공공용수를 대체할 안정적인 수원으로 관심의 대상이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하수처리수 재이용을 위해 미래의 불확실한 용수 수요량을 고려한 최소의 공사비를 최적화하는 방법을 이진변수를 가지는 2단계 추계학적 선형계획법을 이용하여 제시하였다. 현재 설계하는 하수처리수 재이용 모형은 미래의 용수 수요량까지 고려하여 설계하여야 한다는 점을 고려하여, 미래에 용수수요가 증가할 경우, 기존의 관에 평행한 다른 관을 추가로 건설할 수 있다고 가정하여 2단계에 걸쳐 공사가 가능한 모형을 구축하였다. 그 결과 미래의 물 사용량까지를 모두 고려하여 현재 큰 직경의 관로를 건설하는 경우와 작은 직경의 관로를 두 번에 걸쳐 건설하는 대안 사이의 비용차이를 고려한 모형이 제안되었으며, 가상의 네트워크에 적용되어 그 적용성을 입증하였다. 제안된 모형은 하수 처리수 재이용 네트워크 계획 시 경제적인 관로 설계를 위한 기본 자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 장기적인 물 공급 계획을 수립할 시 여러 가지 설계 대안들에 대한 비교를 위해도 사용이 가능하다.

As the agricultural population continues to age, the shortage of labor is worsening. To respond to this, Machinery Operators, those who work on behalf of farmers, are on demand. This study examines the cases in Imsil, Sunchang, and Namwon in Jeollabuk-do, where such agencies are in action, and analyzes the elements of their success and customer satisfaction. A survey was circulated among the farmers who used these agricultural agencies, and a total of 180 responses were submitted. A multiple regression analysis was conducted to prove our thesis. The study shows that the agricultural assistance provided by the Machinery Operators did help in ameliorating the shortage of labor, and resulted in high customer satisfaction. In particular, it was analyzed that Assurance and responsiveness had a significant positive effect on satisfaction. In addition, satisfaction was analyzed to fully mediate between service quality and intention to reuse. This study provides further support for the need to expand the institution of Machinery Operators and to encourage agricultural agencies in order to address the shortage of labor in rural areas due to aging.

개별 생물의 유전적 특성인 유전형 정보를 얻기 위한 개발된 기법들 중 현재 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 것은 차세대 염기서열결정을 통해 얻어진 서열을 분석하여 단일핵산염기다형현상 기반의 유전형 정보를 얻어내는GBS 방법이다. 현재 TASSEL은 GBS방법을 통해 얻어진 서열을 분석하여 시료의 유전형을 측정하기 위해 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 프로그램 중 하나이다. 그러나 TASSEL은 염기서열결정을 통해 얻어진 서열 중 일부만을 사용하는 한계가 존재한다. 우리는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위한 효율성 개선에 대한 연구를 시작하였다. 효율성 개선을 위해 TASSEL에서 사용후 버려지는 서열의 퀄리티를 체크하여 에러율 0.1% 이하인 데이터를 확인 한 후 퀄리티가 에러율을 충족하는 부분의 서열들을 필터링 한다. 그리고 마지막으로 바코드와 제한 효소의 부분을 확인하여 길이에 따라 서열을 잘라내어 새로운 데이터 셋으로 생성하는 구조를 반복하는 알고리즘으로 구현 하였으며, 약 17% 이상의 SNP 탐지효율성 증가함을 확인 하였다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같이 유전형 연구에서 사용되지 않는 유전체 염기서열들을 사용하여 더 많은 숫자의 단일 염기 다형성을 탐지하는 방법과 구현된 프로그램을 제시한다.

The reuse of wastewater for agricultural irrigation may cause human health risk as a result of exposure to pathogens. This study conducted the quantitative microbial risk assessment in paddy field irrigated with treated wastewater. Six treatments were used to irrigate the paddy field from Year 2003 to Year 2005: biofilter-effluent, UV-disinfected water (6, 16, 40, 68 $mW s cm^{-2}$), pond-treated water, wetland-treated water, conventional irrigation water and tap water. Total coliforms, fecal coliforms and E. coli were monitored during rice growing period. Beta - Poisson model was employed to calculate the microbial risk of pathogens ingestion that may occur to farmers and neighbor children. Uncertainty of risk was estimated using Monte Carlo simulation. In this study, the microbial risk was higher during initial cultivation (end of May$\sim$June), and it decreased with time. Biofilter effluent (secondary effluent) irrigation showed higher risk values than others (>$10^{-4}$) and irrigation with UV-disinfected water has the lowest risk range ($10^{-6}{\sim}10^{-5}$). The risk value estimated in 2005 was lower than risk value in 2003 and 2004, it is likely due to clean tap water irrigation in initial transplanting stage. It is suggested that irrigation with UV-disinfected water and pond-treated water would reduce the microbial risk associated with wastewater irrigation in paddy field. In addition, the first irrigation water quality significantly affected the subsequent microbial risk.
