유기성폐기물의 처리 방식은 친환경적이고 지속가능한 에너지 회수 및 슬러지 발생량의 저감이 가능한 혐기성 소화를 통한 에너지화로 전환되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 PFR 흐름(Plug Flow Reactor)과 수직 다단형 구조로 고농도 고형분과 높은 유기물 부하에 견딜 수 있도록 개발된 ECOPAD(ECOdays' Plug-flow Anaerobic Digster) 혐기성 소화 공법의 음식물 폐기물과 도계폐수에 대한 적용성과 효율을 파악하였다. 적용사례별 ECOPAD의 처리효율을 분석한 결과 P시와 S시의 음식물 폐기물 처리시설의 유기물 제거효율은(VS 기준 P시 84%, S시 88%) 였으며, 이때 발생하는 바이오가스량(P시: $1.1Nm^3/kg$-VSrem, S시 $1.0Nm^3/kg$-VSrem)과 메탄가스의 함유량(P시 70%, S시 71%)은 유사하게 측정되었다. 도계 폐수 슬러지의 경우 VS당 가스발생량은 $1.6Nm^3/kg$-VSrem로 측정되었으며, 메탄 함량은69%로 측정되었다.

The anaerobic digestion of organic synthetic wastewater in anaerobic fluidized bed bioreactor (AFBBR) and anaerobic fluidized packed bed bioreactor (AFPBBR) was studied. This study was conducted to evaluate efficiency and reliability of two reactor. Experiment was performed to find the effect of upflow rate with AFBBR and the height of packed bed with AFPBBR. As a result, this program obtained several conclusion. These are given as follows: As applied the upflow rate increased in AFBBR the produced volume of biogas increased, while the gas production and COD removal decreased at above 0.3 m$^3$/h. When a upflow rate is 0.4 m$^3$/h in AFBBR the volatile suspended solid (VSS) became significantly increased. At an organic loading rate from 0.1 to 0.4 of upflow rate in AFBBR, the methane yield was 1.5584 m$^3$CH$_4$/kgCOD removed, and the observed cell yield coefficient was 0.0933 gVSS/gCOD. In case of AFPBBR, the results showed also that 20 cm of height of packed bed was superior to other in the aspect ot biogas production, the content of methane and COD removal. At 20 cm of height, the profile of microorganisms was stable, while at 30 cm the VSS of effluent became higher than AFBBR. Though COD removal of AFPBBR increased with packed bed, COD removal deteriorate with over packing because the loss of pressure became higher in the reactor. At an organic loading rate from 20 to 40 cm of packed bed in-AFPBBR, the methane yield was 2.5649 m$^3$CH$_4$/kgCOD removed, and the observed cell yield coefficient was 0.0506 gVSS/gCOD. Based upon the results obtained, it is suggested that AFBBR and AFPBBR is the most effective conditions at 0.3 m3/h of upflow rate, the 20cm of packed bed, respectively. The rate constant are summarized as follow:

Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) has started the nation's first biogas-microturbine project in the city of Gongju as an effort to encourage the utilization of wasted biogas containing useful energy source in the form of $CH_4$. The goal of the project is to set up the biogas microturbine co-generation system for utilizing biogas as an energy source and improving the economics of the wastewater treatment plant. Wastewater treatment processes were investigated in depth to find improvement possibility. Changes in internal recirculation ratio and pre-treatment degree are needed to optimize plant operation and biogas production. Biogas pre-treatment system satisfies Capstone's fuel condition requirement with the test result of 99.9% and 90.2% of hydrogen sulphide and ammonia is removal performance. Installation of microturbine and manufacture of heat exchanger to warm anaerobic digester has been done successfully. Expected economic profit produced by the system is coming from energy saving including electricity 115,871kWh/year and heat contained in exhaust gas 579GJ/year.

본 연구에서는 음폐수를 대상으로 5 톤/일 처리규모의 막결합형 2상 혐기성 소화(TPADUF) 플랜트를 운영하며 유기물 제거효율 및 메탄 발생량을 파악하고, 소화가스를 이용한 발전 가능성 및 분리막 적정 운영방안을 검토하였다. 고온 산발효조, 중온 메탄조 및 UF 막으로 구성된 처리 시스템에서 평균 TCOD가 150 g/L인 음폐수를 유기물 부하 11.1 g COD/L/d까지 증가시키며 처리한 결과 최종 유출수의 TCOD는 6 g/L 이하이었으며, TCOD 및 SCOD 제거효율은 모두 95% 이상이었다. 소화 가스의 메탄 구성비는 65%이었으며, 회수된 메탄량은 시스템에서 일부 가스가 누출되었음에도 39 $m^3/m^3$ 음폐수 주입량, 260 $m^3$/톤 COD유입량, 또는 270 $m^3$/톤 COD제거량 이었다. 소모된 가스량 당 발전량은 0.96 kWh/$m^3$ 가스, 또는 1.49 kWh/$m^3$ 메탄으로 다소 낮았으나 이는 소용량 발전기(15 kW급)의 저효율에 기인한 것이다. 분리막은 평균 flux 10 L/$m^2$/hr에서 운전하였으며, 운전 중 flux가 감소하였을 때는 물 또는 화학적(NaOCl)세정을 실시하여 회복시킬 수 있었다. TPADUF 플랜트에서는 메탄조 내액 또는 분리막 농축액을 산발효조로 반송함으로써 산발효조의 pH를 별도의 약품 주입 없이 적정 수준을 유지할 수 있었으며, 산발효조에서 부분적인 메탄생성을 통해 메탄조의 유기물 부하를 낮추는 효과도 있었다.

실험실 규모 회분식 미생물전기분해전지 반응기 (유효부피 20 mL)를 이용하여 수소가스 생산 및 식종기간 특성을 조사하였다. 총 6 cycle 동안 0.9 V를 인가하여 식종슬러지 혼합 비율 (혐기성소화 슬러지:50 mM PBS)에 따른 수소생산 및 식종기간을 분석한 결과 혼합비 1:1 반응기에서 9.8-20.9 mL 수소를 생산하였으며, 수소함량은 66.8-79.6%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 식종기간에 있어서는 혼합비 1:1 반응기 기준으로 약 12일 정도부터는 수소생산 및 전류밀도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 혼합비 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 반응기의 경우 cycle (2-6 cycle)에 따라 수소가스 생산량이 3.7-7.1 mL, 농도 5.8-65.8%로 변화하였으며, 혼합비 1:5, 1:6, 1:7 반응기의 수소가스 생산량은 0.5-0.7 mL, 농도 1.8-7.1%로 나타나 최대 혼합비 1:4까지 식종하는 것이 적합할 것으로 판단된다.

In the treatment of wastewater or sewage plant sludge with high solid concentration, high rate digestion process in which heating and mixing occur at a time is mainly used, and in the case of wastewater containing solid matter below 1000mg/ℓ the recently developed AF or UASB is developed Recently and commonly utilized. But these processes have weakpoints such as clogging of packing media and need of long period of trial run after microorganism granulation. In this point of view, there are active researches on the ASBR( anaerobic sequence batch reaction ) that is capable of treating of organic matter with reactor that has no packing materials and controlling the inflow time, reaction time sedimentation time and outflow time by time control without loss of microorganisms. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficiency of ASBR process according to the reaction time, change of treated water quality and gas output rate in the treatment of wheat plant wastewater.

Biomass to methane via anaerobic digestion conversion is a good supply method of substitutable energy resources. The economic viability of this technology is contingent upon managing the production facilities in a cost effective manner. The problem is to determine the batch production sequence as well as the batch residence times in the digester so as to maximize total gas production over a given planning horizon. The problem is difficult to solve since the batch sequencing decisions and the batch residence time decisions cannot be isolated. This paper developes a heuristic algorithm which is based on a dynamic programming procedure for the multiple feedstock sequencing and scheduling biogas production systems and demonstrates to yield good results.

Laboratory study was conducted to provide basic data for operating anaerobic sequencing batch reactor(ASBR) process for treatment of nightsoil. The experiments were concerned with digestion characteristics, settleabiltity and dewaterability of digested sludge in ASBR system. Completely-mixed dally-fed control reactor without solid-liquid separation step was also operated to evaluate the baseline performance since the nature of nightsoil was changed with time. In all case, gas production from the ASBR shows 1.3 to 1.44 times higher than that from control, in spite of almost similar trend in organics removal. During thickening period, remarkable decrease in surface settling velocity was observed at the ASBRs compared with the control. In case of the ASBR run, flotation of mixed digested sludge was not occurred. Also, ultimate thickened volume of ASBRs increased 1.2~1.5 times compared with control. Dewaterability of digested sludge without conditioning decreased when the completely-mixed daily-fed reactor for ASBR run was converted to the ASBR. However, improvement of dewaterability of digested sludge from the ASBRs was observed as a result of addition of FeCl$_3$ to digested sludge for conditioning.

In this study, microwave irradiation, which is reflected by metals, was used to reduce the amount of sewage sludge, and the results were used to verify solubilization efficiency and determine optimum operation conditions. Biogas production and methane content of the gas under optimized conditions were measured with the biochemical methane potential (BMP) test. The sludge was taken from a thickened sludge tank at J sewage treatment plant (JSTP) in Seoul, Korea. For the experiments, 50 mL of sludge was filled in vessels and the vessels were irradiated with the power of 500, 600, 700, and 800W for 2~5 min. In addition, Fe powder was added by 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1 g to compare the efficiency with and without Fe powder. The results confirmed that solubilization efficiency was higher in the presence of Fe powder. The optimum conditions of 0.01 g addition of Fe powder with 800W irradiation for 5 min, yielded nearly 22.95% higher solubilization efficiency than without Fe powder. The BMP tests were carried out using sludge obtained from the experiments carried out under the optimum conditions. As a result, sludge subjected by 800W with 0.01 g of Fe powder for 5 min displayed the highest level of gas production and methane content. Through this study, it could be confirmed that solubilization efficiency increased by addition of Fe powder.
