This study aims to observe the inhibition of methane generation, the decomposition of organic matter, and the trend of outflowing leachate, using the simulated column of the anaerobic sanitary landfill structure of sulfate addition type which is made by adding sulfate to a current anaerobic landfill structure, and the simulated column of semi-aerobic landfill structure in the laboratory which is used in the country like Japan in order to inhibit methane from a landfill site among the gases caused by a global warming these days, and at the same time to promote the decomposition of organic matter, the index of stabilization of landfill site. As a result of this study, it is thought that the ORP(Oxidation Reduction Potential) of the column of semi-aerobic landfill structure gradually represents a weak aerobic condition as time goes by, and that the inside of landfill site is likely to by in progress into anaerobic condition, unless air effectively comes into a semi-aerobic landfill structure in reality as time goes by. In addition, it can be seen that the decomposition of organic matter is promoted according to sulfate reduction in case of $R_1$, a sulfate-added anaerobic sanitary landfill structure, and that the stable decomposition of organic matter in $R_1$ makes a faster progess than $R_2$. Moreover it can be estimated that $R_1$, a sulfate-added anaerobic sanitary landfill structure has an inhibition efficiency of 55% or so, compared with $R_2$, a semi-aerobic landfill structure, in the efficiency of inhibiting methane.

The anaerobic landfill leachate treatment can surmount dilution problem of high concentration landfill leachate, collect methane gas as byproduct, and treat low phosphate concentration leachate because of low nutrient salt requirement. The problems of conventional anaerobic treatment that are requirement of large reactor because of low microbial growth rate(HRT=20-30 days) and low volumetric loading rate(VLR=0.5-2.0 kg $COD/m^3\cdot day$) are able to surmount by introduction of high rate anaerobic treatment. In this study, the upflow blanket filter(UBF) which is high rate anaerobic process was applyed to the landfill leachate treatment. The acceptable volumetric loading rate and HRT were 18.23 kg $SCOD/m^3\cdot day$ and 13 hrs. SCOD removal rate was over 90% at VLR 18.23 kg $SCOD/m^3\cdot day$. The methane gas yield was $0.15 lCH_4/g$ SCOD added(at STP) at VLR 18.23 kg $SCOD/m^3\cdot day$. The solids accumulation yield was 0.40 g VSS/g COD removed.

Landfill waste decomposition generates a dark effluent named, leachate which is characterized by high organic matter content. To minimize these polluting effects, it becomes necessary to develop an effective landfill leachate treatment process. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of an innovative approach based on air stripping, anaerobic digestion (AD) and aerobic activated sludge treatment. A reduction of 80% of ammonia and an increase of carbon to nitrogen ratio to 25 were obtained, which is a suitable ratio for AD. This latter AD was performed in fixed bed reactor with progressive loading rate that reached 2 and 3.2 g COD/L/d for the raw and diluted leachate (1:2), respectively. The anaerobic treatment led to significant removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biogas production, especially for the diluted leachate. The COD removal was of 78% for the raw leachate and a biogas production of 4 L/d with 70% methane content. The use of the diluted leachate led to 81% of COD removal and 7 L/d biogas with 75% methane content. It allowed a removal of 77% COD and more than 97% of the organic compounds present in the initial leachate sample.

침출수의 혐기성 처리시 오염물질 거동과 미생물 특성을 평가하기 위하여 10개월간 실험을 수행하였다. 상향류 혐기성 슬러지 블랭킷 (UASB) 반응조의 경우 최대 유기물 부하 $20kgCOD/m^3.d$까지 약 90%의 COD 제거율을 나타내었다. 높은 유기물 부하 ($18-20kgCOD/m^3.d$)에서는 프로피온산의 농도가 상대적으로 증가하여 프로피온산의 초산으로의 전환이 율속단계로 나타났다. UASB 반응조를 이용한 침출수 처리는 높은 유기물 제거능에도 불구하고 입상슬러지와 반응조 내부 등의 무기물 축적으로 인한 운전상의 문제가 발생하였다. 입상슬러지 내 주된 무기물의 성분은 칼슘화합물로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 비메탄 활성도의 급격한 감소는 발생되지 않았으나 무기물 축적으로 인한 운전상의 문제를 저감하기 위해서는 무기물 제거를 위한 전처리 공정의 도입이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Landfill leachate is one of highly contaminated and heterogeneous wastewater. The leachate from initial landfill can be treated by anaerobic process because it contains biodegradable matters, particularly, volatile fatty acids (VFAs). However, the anaerobic treatment of leachate is generally required longer hydraulic retention time (HRT) than aerobic process and another treatment process to satisfy effluent concentration. Therefore the modification of conventional anaerobic treatment is needed. Two phase anaerobic membrane process (TPAMP) is an integrated membrane process to be able to separate anaerobic metabolism into two phase which are acidogenesis and methanogenesis for improvement of anaerobic treatment efficiency. In this study, the efficiency of TPAMP and conventional anaerobic treatment were compared in terms of HRT, effluent SCOD, VFAs Membrane used in TPAMP was the UF of capillary type with the surface area of $0.048m^2$. The average effluent SCOD of conventional anaerobic treatment was 1352 mg/L and the removal was 96 % at HRT 60 days, while in TPAMP, 927 mg/L and 98% at HRT 30 days.

The production of microbiologically enriched cultures that degrade cis- 1,2-dichloroethylene(DCE) under anaerobic conditions was investigated. Among 80 environmental samples, 19 displayed significant degradation of $10{\mu}M$ cis-DCE during 1 month of anaerobic incubation, and one sediment sample collected at a landfill area (Nanji-do, Seoul, Korea) showed the greatest degradation ($94\%$). When this sediment culture was subcultured repeatedly, the ability to degrade cis-DCE gradually decreased. However, under Fe(III)-reducing conditions, cis-DCE degradation by the subculture was found to be maintained effectively. In the Fe(III)-reducing subculture, vinyl chloride (VC) was also degraded at the same extent as cis-DCE No accumulation of VC during the cis-DCE degradation was observed. Thus, Fe(III)-reducing microbes might be involved in the anaerobic degradation of the chlorinated ethenes. However, the subcultures established with Fe(III) could function even in the absence of Fe(III), showing that the degradation of cis-DCE and VC was not directly coupled with the Fe(III) reduction. Consequently, the two series of enrichment cultures could not be obtained that degrade both cis-DCE and VC in the presence or absence of Fe(III). Considering the lack of VC accumulation, both cultures reported herein may involve interesting mechanism(s) for the microbial remediation of environments contaminated with chlorinated ethenes. A number of fermentative reducers (microbes) which are known to reduce Fe(III) during their anaerobic growth are potential candidates involved in cir-DCE degradation in the presence and absence of Fe(III).

Most of methane gas result from waste matter in landfill, therefore the persons concerned take an increasing interest in management of gases in landfill. Infrared Gas Analyzer was used to measure components of gases, $CH_4,$ $CO_2,$ $O_2,$ through gas exhausted pipe. To measure amount of the gas flow meter(Portable Hot-Line Current Meter) was used and it was set at right angles with direction of the flow. In this research the total amount of methane gas produced in Beck-Suk Landfill was calculated through FOD method suggested by IPCC. This research found that in Chon-An Beck-Suk Landfill anaerobic resolution was made actively and the amount of methane gas produced there was 54.14%, which is higher than common figure, 50%, in other researches. The components of reclaimed waste matter, especially, organic waste matter can have a great effect of the amount of the greenhouse gases produced in landfill. We can expect that the amount of greenhouse gas will decrease from 2005, when it will be prohibited from carrying kitchen refuse and sludge into landfill.

An experimental research was conducted to establish primary data for the stabilization assessment of industrial wastes landfill with analysis of waste components and investigation of leachate and gas generation, using three sets of lysimeter as experimental apparatus. Comparing results of lysimeter from data of landfill, it is suggested that lysimeter of this study can be used to accomplish the stabilization assessment of the real landfill site. Moisture content was lower as landfill period was older and combustible component was the highest in lysimeter C. The C/N ratio of waste was 7.4~14.4 and, with the elemental analysis, the theoretical gas generation rate based on the modified Buswell equation was 0.47~0.49 $m^3/kg-dry$ waste in lysimeter C. Considering the C/N ratio of leachate, it is concluded that the addition of carbon source is needed to biodegrade leachate hereafter. Gas generation rate($m^3/kg-dry$ waste) from lysimeter A, B and C was 0.0009, 0.014 and 0.0067, respectively, and different from each other according to the landfill period of wastes. The results in this study show that the biodegradation of microorganism for stabilization of landfill was inhibited and more activated in acidogenic step than in methanogenic of anaerobic degradation.
