3가지 재질의 생물활성탄 부착 박테리아들을 부리 동정한 결과 총 9종류의 부착 박테리아가 동정되었다. Pseudomonas 속이 차지하는 비율이 평균 56.5%로 나타나 가장 높은 우점비율을 나타내었고, 다음으로 Pasteurella속 18.9%, Chryseomonas 속 4.0%, Agrobacterium속 3.5%, Aeromonas속 2.0% 순으로 검출되었다. 순수 분리된 9종의 박테리아들의 성장곡선을 조사한 결과 24~96시간 내에 최대의 생체량을 나타내어 geosmin을 유기탄소원으로 활용하는 능력이 뛰어난 것으로 조사되었다. $4^{\circ}C$와 $25^{\circ}C$의 운전조건에서 geosmin에 대한 생분해능을 조사한 결과 Pseudomonas vesicularis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Agrobacterium radiobacter 및 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia 등이 뛰어난 생분해율을 나타낸 반면 Chryseomonas luteola, Spingomonas paucimobilis, Spirillum spp. 등은 비교적 낮은 geosmin 생분해능을 나타내었다. Geosmin의 생분해능은 수온이 $4^{\circ}C$일 경우 생분해율 속도상수가 $0.00006{\sim}0.00020\;hr^{-1}$의 범위에서 $25^{\circ}C$에서는 $0.0043{\sim}0.0046\;hr^{-1}$의 범위로 나타나 수온 상승에 따라 큰 폭으로 증가하였으며, 또한 투입된 geosmin의 농도가 10~10,000 ng/L로 증가할수록 생분해율 속도상수도 $0.0003{\sim}0.0882\;hr{-1}$로 증가하였다.

Background: For understanding and evaluating a more realistic and accurate assessment of ecosystem carbon balance related with environmental change or difference, it is necessary to analyze the various interrelationships between soil respiration and environmental factors. However, the soil temperature is mainly used for gap filling and estimation of soil respiration (Rs) under environmental change. Under the fact that changes in precipitation patterns due to climate change are expected, the effects of soil moisture content (SMC) on soil respiration have not been well studied relative to soil temperature. In this study, we attempt to analyze relationship between precipitation and soil respiration in temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest for 2 years in Gwangneung. Results: The average soil temperature (Ts) measured at a depth of 5 cm during the full study period was $12.0^{\circ}C$. The minimum value for monthly Ts was $-0.4^{\circ}C$ in February 2015 and $2.0^{\circ}C$ in January 2016. The maximum monthly Ts was $23.6^{\circ}C$ in August in both years. In 2015, annual precipitation was 823.4 mm and it was 1003.8 mm in 2016. The amount of precipitation increased by 21.9% in 2016 compared to 2015, but in 2015, it rained for 8 days more than in 2016. In 2015, the pattern of low precipitation was continuously shown, and there was a long dry period as well as a period of concentrated precipitation in 2016. 473.7 mm of precipitation, which accounted for about 51.8% of the precipitation during study period, was concentrated during summer (June to August) in 2016. The maximum values of daily Rs in both years were observed on the day when precipitation of 20 mm or more. From this, the maximum Rs value in 2015 was $784.3mg\;CO_2\;m^{-2}\;h^{-1}$ in July when 26.8 mm of daily precipitation was measured. The maximum was $913.6mg\;CO_2\;m^{-2}\;h^{-1}$ in August in 2016, when 23.8 mm of daily precipitation was measured. Rs on a rainy day was 1.5~1.6 times higher than it without precipitation. Consequently, the annual Rs in 2016 was about 12% higher than it was in 2015. It was shown a result of a 14% increase in summer precipitation from 2015. Conclusions: In this study, it was concluded that the precipitation pattern has a great effect on soil respiration. We confirmed that short-term but intense precipitation suppressed soil respiration due to a rapid increase in soil moisture, while sustained and adequate precipitation activated Rs. In especially, it is very important role on Rs in potential activating period such as summer high temperature season. Therefore, the accuracy of the calculated values by functional equation can be improved by considering the precipitation in addition to the soil temperature applied as the main factor for long-term prediction of soil respiration. In addition to this, we believe that the accuracy can be further improved by introducing an estimation equation based on seasonal temperature and soil moisture.

골프장은 인공적으로 건설되어 지고 관리되므로 당연히 환경의 변화가 생성된 곳이므로 건설방식이나 관리 방법에 따라 코스 내 토양 미생물 군집 구조의 특이성이 있을 것이다. 현재 제주도에서는 농약 용탈 저감방안으로 골프코스 그린지반구조에 농약 흡착층을 설치하고 그 재료로 흡착성능이 우수한 입상 활성탄 1등급을 사용할 것을 환경 영향평가서에 명시하고 있다. 본 실험은 활성탄이 처리된 제주도 A, B 골프장을 대상으로 토양에서의 화학적 특성변화와 미생물 군락변화를 분석하였다. 2007년 4월, 6월, 8월 10월에 걸쳐서 총 박테리아 수, 총 곰팡이 수, 수분함량 및 토양 이화학성(pH, EC, NO3-,NH4+ 및 P2O5)의 변화를 그린과 페어웨이에서 깊이별(표토:0-15cm, 심토: 15-30cm)로 조사되었다. 그 결과, 활성탄의 시용이 수분 보유 능력, 토양산도, 전기전도도에 긍정적인 영향을 보였으나, GAC의 물질의 수착 능력에 의하여 유효 양분들을 많이 보유하는 데 도움이 될 것이라 예상하였으나, 본 실험에서는 가용성 질산과 암모늄, 및 인산의 농도를 높이는 효과는 없었다. 토양 미생물 실험에 있어서는 총 박테리아 및 총 곰팡이의 시기적 변화가 다양성을 보였다. 이러한 현상은 농약의 시용에 따라 직접적인 관련이 있을 것으로 예상되었으나, 총 곰팡이/총 박테리아 비(F/B ration) 는 활성탄을 혼합한 토양 심토(15-30cm)에서 일정한 수치를 유지하였다. 따라서, GAC 토양층의 설치 방법이나 시비와 시약 등이 미생물군집의 변화에 영향을 주며 이는 농약의 시용이 잔디관리에 큰 변수로 작용한다는 것을 시사한다.

본 연구에서는 고농도 암모니아성질소로 오염된 고체배지로부터 분리해 낸 Leclercia adecarboxylata를 이용하여 암모니아성질소의 제거특성 및 기작을 파악하여 폐수처리의 적용가능성에 대해 살펴보았다. 질소제거에 있어서 가장 널리 알려진 생물학적 질산화와 후탈질에 의한 질소의 대기로의 방출이 아닌 질소합성균주를 이용한 질소의 체내합성을 이용한 영양물질의 제거 가능성에 대해 접근해 보았다. L. adecarboxylata는 무염분조건에서 암모니아성질소의 제거와 균체중식이 가장 왕성했으나, 염분이 4%를 넘어서게 되면 그 효율은 급격히 저하되었다. 약 80 mg/L의 암모니아성질소는 20시간 이내에 거의 대부분 제거되었으나, 500 mg/L인 시료는 탄소원의 부족으로 인해 50시간 이상 처리후에도 50%의 제거율에도 미치지 못해 탄소원이 많을수록 질소제거율은 높음을 알 수 있었다. 탄소원이 모두 소모되고 난 이후에는 더 이상 질소제거는 이루어지지 않았으나, 탄소원을 추가로 공급했을 때 제거효율은 다시 증가했다. 시료의 pH는 미생물의 증식에 의해 8에서 6.36까지 감소했다. 암모니아성질소가 제거되는 동안 아질산성질소와 질산성질소의 축적은 일어나지 않았고, TKN값은 큰 차이를 보이지 않은 것으로 미루어 볼 때 유기질소로의 합성을 추측할 수 있었다. 유기질소 중 단백질의 농도를 측정해 본 결과 초기시료에서는 불검출 되었으나, 48시간 경과후의 시료에는 193.1 mg/L의 단백질이 검출 되었다. 따라서 L. adecarboxylata는 암모니아성질소를 유기질소로 합성하는 능력이 탁월하여 폐수중의 암모니아성질소의 제거에 이용가치가 클 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the removal of ammonium nitrogen by biological nitrification in raw water containing LAS using BAC. At batch teats, LAS removal by ozone followed the first order reaction, and the rate constants(k) by ozone dose 1, 3mg/min.L were $0.040min^{-1}$, $0.062min^{-1}$ respectively. Therefore, the more ozone was dosed, the higher LAS was removed The reaction between ozone and ammonium nitrogen also followed the first order, and rate constants(k) at pH7,8 and 9 were $8.9{\times}10^{-4}min-1$, $3.8{\times}10^{-3}min^{-1}$, and $2.9{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$ respectively at ozone dose of 3mg/min.L . Therefore, ammonium nitrogen was little removed by ozone under neutral pH of 7. The continuous flow apparatus had four sets composed of a ozone contacter and a GAC column. Through continuous filtration test for 50days, the following conclusions were derived; (1) LAS was removed 23%, 30% respectively by ozone dose 1, 3mg/L, and was not detected in all column effluents during the period of experiment. Therefore, it appeared that adsorption capacities of each column still remained. (2) Ammonium nitrogen concentration after ozone contact varied little in raw Water because pH of raw water was from 6 to 7, and was transfered to nitrite and nitrate within GAC columns as the result of staged nitrification. After 30days, nitrite was not detected in all column effluents due to biological equilbrium between nitro semonas and nitrobacter Average removals of ammonium nitrogen in each column after the lapse of 30days were the following; ${\cdot}$ column A (ozone dose 3mg/L, EBCT 9.5min): about 100% ${\cdot}$ column B (ozone dose 1mg/L, EBCT 9.5min): 91% ${\cdot}$ column C (ozone dose 3mg/L, EBCT 14.2min): about 100% ${\cdot}$ column D (ozone dose 0mg/L, EBCT 9.5min): 53% Though column A and C reached nitrification of about 100%, column C (longer EBCT than column A) was more stable than column A. (3) After backwash, nitrification reached steady state within 5 to 8 hours. Therefore, nitrification was not greatly affected by backwash. (4) According to the nitrification capacity in depth of column A, C, where 100% nitrification occured. LAS was removed within 20cm, while ammonium nitrogen required more depth to be removed by nitrification.

This study assessed the removal efficiency of NOM which is known as the precursors of DBPs in advanced water treatment using the ceramic membrane filtration, introduced the first in the nation at the Y water treatment plant (WTP). It is generally well-known that the removal of NOM by MF Membrane is very low in water treatment process. But, the result of investigation on removal efficiency of NOM in advanced water treatment using the ceramic membrane was different as follows. The removal rate of organic contaminant by the ceramic membrane advanced water treatment was determined to be 65.5% for the DOC, 85.8% for UV254, and 77 to 86% for DBPFP. The removal rate of pre-ozonation was found to be 6 to 15% more effective compared with the pre-chlorination. The removal rate of DOC and $UV_{254}$ in biological activated carbon(BAC) process was over 50% and 75%, respectively although the rate was decreased 10 ~ 20% according to analysis items in converting from GAC to BAC.

The biofilms on pipe walls in water distribution systems are of interest since they can lead to chlorine demand, coliform growth, pipe corrosion, and water taste and odor problems. As such, the study described in this paper is part of an AWWARF and Tampa Bay Water tailored collaboration project to determine the effect of blending different source waters on the water quality in various distribution systems. The project was based on 18 independent pilot distribution systems (PDS), each being fed by a different water blend (7 finished waters blended in different proportions). The source waters compared were groundwater, surface water, and brackish water, which were treated in a variety of pilot distribution systems, including reverse osmosis (RO) (desalination), both membrane and chemical softening, and ozonation-biological activated carbon (BAC), resulting in a total of 7 different finished waters. The observations from this study consistently demonstrated that unlined ductile iron was more heavily colonized by a biomass than galvanized steel, lined ductile iron, and PVC (in that order) and that the fixed biomass accumulation was more influenced by the nature of the supporting material than by the water quality (including the secondary residual levels). However, although the bulk liquid water cultivable bacterial counts (i.e. heterotrophic plate counts or HPCs) did not increase with a greater biofilm accumulation, the results also suggested that high HPCs corresponded to a low disinfectant residual more than a high biofilm inventory. Furthermore, temperature was found to affect the biofilms, plus the AOC was important when the residual was between 0.6 and 2.0 mg $Cl_2/l$. An additional aspect of the current study was that the potential of the exoproteolytic activity (PEPA) technique was used along with a traditional so-called destructive technique in which the biofilm was scrapped off the coupon surface, resuspended, and cultivated on an R2A agar. Both techniques indicated similar trends and relative comparisons among the PDSs, yet the culturable biofilm values for the traditional method were several orders of magnitude lower than the PEPA values.

본 연구에서는 BAC 공정을 장기간 운전하면서 유입수중의 $Br^-$ 농도변화에 따른 THMFP 제거율을 평가하였다. BAC 공정을 장기간 운전하면서 THMFP 구성종별로 제거능을 살펴본 결과, $CHCl_3$ 생성능의 경우는 계절변화에 따른 유입수중의 $Br^-$ 농도변화에 따라 관계없이 우수한 제거능을 나타내었으나, 브롬계 THM 생성능의 경우는 유입수중의 $Br^-$/DOC 비가 증가할수록 제거율은 저하되었다. 또한, BAC 공정에서의 THMFP 구성종별로 제거특성을 살펴본 결과, 유입수의 $Br^-$/DOC 비가 높은 경우에 EBCT가 증가할수록 $CHCl_3$ FP의 제거율은 증가하였으나 브롬계 THMFP의 경우는 EBCT가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, THMFP 구성종의 브롬원자 개수가 많아질수록 제거율은 감소하였다.

Characteristics of organic matters (OM) in wastewater and the removal efficiencies were investigated using the influent and the effluent samples collected from 21 wastewater treatment plants. The OM characteristics investigated included biodegradability, humic content, specific UV absorbance (SUVA), the distribution percentage of refractory OM (R-OM), and synchronous fluorescence spectra. The types of wastewater (sewage, livestock waste/night soils, industrial waste) were easily distinguished by comparing the synchronous fluorescence spectra of the influent wastewater. The prominent peak of protein-like fluorescence (PLF) was observed for livestock waste/night soils whereas sewage exhibited a unique fluorescence peak at a wavelength of 370 nm. Irrespective of the wastewater types, the distribution percentage of R-OM increased from the influent to the effluent. Livestock waste/night soils showed the highest removal efficiency among all the three types of wastewater. There was no statistical difference of the removal efficiency between a traditional activated sludge and biological advanced treatment processes. Removal efficiency based on dissolved organic carbon DOC presented good correlations with the distribution percentage of R-OM and fulvic-like fluorescence (FLF) of the influent. The prediction for DOC removal efficiency was improved by using multiple regression analyses based on some selected OM characteristics and mixed liquid suspended solid (MLSS).
