In this study, degradation of carbohydrates and composition of fermentative products were investigated in semi-continuous acid fermenter varying hydraulic retention time (HRT). Rice soup was used as a sole substrate for the acid fermentation. Solubilization efficiency of the substrate was higher than 70% for all HRT, however the gas conversion was ignorable implying that most of organic contents in the influent remained in the form of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and ethanol after acid fermentation. The VFAs were the predominant product and the VFAs conversion increased as the HRT decreased. The VFAs conversion reached the maximum value at 12 hr HRT accounting for 70% of the influent COD. Similar to VFAs, ethanol conversion was increased with the decrease of HRT and the maximum ethanol conversion efficiency was 8% at the HRT of 12 hr. Composition of VFAs was markedly dependent on HRT. As HRT increased, the composition of acetic acid was increased as a product of acetogenesis from butyrate, valerate and ethanol. This study demonstrated that HRT affected acid fermentation of a carbohydrate containing organic wastes producing VFAs and ethanol which could be effectively used to compensate the lack of carbon in wastewater for biological nutrient removal.

In this paper, data collected from 22 different rural watersheds during stormflow conditions were analyzed. Those watersheds consisted of forest and cultivated land. EMC data analysis indicates that as agricultural land use increases, EMC values of TSS, COD and TN clearly tends to increase, but TP does not show a significant increase. Pattern of the pollutographs mostly has a similarity in hydrograph shape except nitrogen which inherently shows a variability and complication. The fraction of soluble reactive-P to TP increases as cultivated land use increases while mobile-nitrogen portion was higher in the runoff from forested watersheds than agricultural areas. During stormflow, pollutograph of the nitrogen was determined mainly by change in Particle-TKN as other pollutants but its effect is thought to be masked by decrease of dissolved form of nitrogen due to the dilution.

Various environmental conditions affecting total phosphorus removal from farm wastewater in a biofilm filter process were investigated using loess balls and Chromobacterium LEE-38 at a pilot plant. When Chromobacterium LEE-38 was used, the removal efficiency of total phosphorous was approximately 10- or 5-fold higher than that of Acinetobacter CHA-2-14 or Acinetobacter CHA-4-5, respectively. When a loess ball of $11{\sim}14mm$ manufactured at a $960^{\circ}C$ calcining temperature was used, the removal efficiency of total phosphorous was 90.0%. When 70% of the volume fraction was used, the maximum efficiency of total phosphorus removal was 93.1%. Notably, when the initial pH was in the range of 6.0 to 8.0, the maximum removal efficiency of total phosphorus was obtained after 30 days. When the operating temperature was in the range of 30 to $55^{\circ}C$, the maximum removal efficiencies of total phosphorus, 95.6 to 94.6%, were obtained. On the other hand, at operating temperatures below $20^{\circ}C$ or above $40^{\circ}C$, the removal efficiency of total phosphorous decreased. Among the various processes, biofilm filter process A gave the highest removal efficiency of 96.4%. Pilot tests of total phosphorus removal using farm wastewater from the biofilm filter process A were carried out for 60 days under optimal conditions. When Acinetobacter sp. Lee-11 was used, the average removal efficiency in the p-adsorption area was only 32.5%, and the removal efficiencies of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD) were 56.7 and 62.5%, respectively. On the other hand, when Chromobacterium LEE-38 was used, the average removal efficiency was 95.1%, and the removal efficiencies of COD and BOD were 91.3 and 93.2%, respectively.

The lab-scale BNR processes fed with Municipal Wastewater Before or After Primary Clarifier (MWBPC or MWAPC) were operated to observe the behavior of particle organic matter in terms of nitrification and denitrification efficiency. As a result of the fractionation of the COD from MWBPC or MWAPC using an aerobic respirometric serum bottle reactor, the total mass of biodegradable organic matter from MWBPC is about 52% greater than the mass from MWAPC. Batch reactors were operated to observe the effect of the Particulate Organic Matter (POM) on substrate utilization for denitrification. Although the consumption of POM for denitrification was observed, the increment of the Specific Denitrification Rate (SDNR) was not great. In terms of the effect of POM on nitrification at different HRTs, activate sludge reactors were operated to determine the optimal HRT when MWBPC and MWAPC were fed relatively. All reactors showed a great organic matter removal efficiency. Reactors fed with MWAPC had obtained the nitrification efficiency above 90% when the HRT of 4 hr, at least, was maintained, while reactors fed with MWBPC had same efficiency when the HRT longer than 5 hr was kept. Three parallel $A^2/O$ systems fed with MWBPC or MWAPC relatively were operated to investigate the effects of POM on BNR processes with varying the HRT of an anoxic reactor. For all systems, the efficiency of organic matter removal and denitrification, respectively, was great and about the same. In case of denitrification efficiency, system with MWAPC had 1.5% lower than system with MWBPC at the same HRT of anoxic reactor of 2 hr, and the increasing the HRT of the anoxic reactor by 1 hr in systems fed with MWBPC resulted in a 3.5% increment. The denitrification rate was similar while the consumption of organic matter in systems fed with MWBPC was higher than system fed with MWBPC. It suggests that POM in MWBPC was not be used significantly as a substrate for denitrification in system with the HRT of 3 hr of an anoxic reactor.

The purpose of this study is to improve the polluted stream water quality by pilot-scale five different constructed wetlands (CWs). Cell 1 to 3 are newly designed 2SFCW (Surface-subsurface flow CW) with 1 to 3 flow shifters (FS) in the middle of the wetland system. Cell 4 and 5 are control CW (CCW), but Cell 5 is the same type as Cell 3. The FS, which converts the route of surface and subsurface flow between two wetlands connected in series, was able to enhance the treatability of TN via nitrification and denitrification and of SS due to filtration and sedimentation. The void fraction and dispersion number of Cell 1, 2 and 3 obtained from the RTD analysis were found to be 0.73 and 0.17, respectively. COD and TP removal efficiencies of Cell 1 to 3 were similar to that of Cell 4 and 5. SS removal efficiencies of Cell 1 to 3 and 5 with FS were 5-10% higher than that of Cell 4 without FS. TN removal efficiencies of Cell 1 to 3 were 3-14% higher than that of Cell 4 and 5. The average $R^2$ values of COD, SS, TN and TP obtained from nonlinear regression analysis were similar to the results of other researchers.

벼멸구 저항성벼 품종인 장성벼와 화청벼로부터 생육시기(유묘기, 분얼기, 출수기, 등숙기)별로 추출 용액 극성에 따라 얻은 추출분획물(hexane, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate, butanol 및 water)에 대하여 벼멸구 살충 및 기피 활성을 벼멸구 감수성벼 품종인 동진벼를 검정 대상식물로서 조사하였다. 장성벼와 화청벼로부터 얻은 추출분획물 대부분은 12시간 처리 기간 중 벼멸구 살충 활성을 보이지 않았으나, ethyl ether 및 hexane 추출분획물은 24시간 및 48시간 처리에서 약 $10{\sim}30%$의 벼멸구 살충 활성을 나타내었다. 한편 장성벼의 ethyl ether 추출분획물은 효과적인 벼멸구 기피 활성을 보였지만, 화청벼로부터 얻은 추출분획물은 이러한 효과를 나타내지 않았다. 장성벼 또는 화청벼의 여러 생육 단계별로 얻은 추출분획물 사이에는 벼멸구에 대한 기피 활성 효과에 있어 뚜렷한 관련성을 찾을 수 없었다. Ethyl ether 분획의 벼멸구에 대한 기피 활성은 처리 후 30시간까지 증가되었으나, 그 이후에는 감소되는 경향이었다. 더욱이 장성벼 ethyl ether 추출분획물에 대한 flash column chromatography의 chloroform:methanol (9:1, v/v) 용출에 의한 8개의 2차 분획물($sF1{\sim}sF8$) 중 최초의 분획물(sF1)은 벼멸구에 대해서 비교적 높은 기피 활성을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과는 장성벼 ethyl ether 추출분획물은 벼멸구에 대한 살충 활성 보다는 오히려 기피 활성이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이 ethyl ether 추출분획물의 2차 분획물들에 대한 검정 결과 최초의 2차 분획물(sF1) 중에는 기피 활성에 관여하는 물질의 존재 가능성이 매우 높은 것으로 나타났다. 주로 물중에서의 휘산과 수도체로 흡수 이행되어 휘산되었다.EX>$CaCl_2$과 보조제를 혼용하여 엽면 살포할 경우 정의 상관관계가 있다는 것을 제시하고자 한다. 대부분 DTP형태이었다. 계절별 오염물질 처리량을 조사한 결과 BOD, COD, TOC, SS, T-N 및 T-P 처리량은 여름과 가을이 봄과 겨울에 비해 처리량이 약간 증가되었으며, BOD, COD, TOC, SS, T-N 및 T-P는 4계절 모두 방류수의 처리효율이 각각 92, 89, 73, 95, 46 및 84%이상의 높은 처리효율을 나타내었다.$유기화합물$\Rightarrow$Bioassay) 및 각 선별 체계별 활용기준 항목에 대한 규제기준이 설정된 후 이들의 각 성분함량을 통과하고 최종 비효시험(포장)을 마친 경우에는, 유용한 유기성자원의 농업적 활용으로 안전한 작물재배 및 농업환경을 보전할 수 있다고 생각된다.양 유실량과 관계되는 것으로 생각되었다. 농약의 강우에 의한 유실은 복잡하게 작용하는 많은 환경적 요인에 의하여 영향을 받지만 정교하게 구성된 환경 시나리오에 의하여 예측 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.고 도라지는 물에 우려 푹 삶았고, 감자, 송이 등은 잘게 썰어 쌀과 함께 밥을 조리하였다. 4. 약선 음식조리방법 약선음식의 재료는 평상시 식생활에 사용되고 있던 식품들의 기능성분과 약이성을 이용하여 만성적인 질병과 급성적인 복통 설사 등에 재료의 전처리를 통해 죽으로 많이 이용하였다. 특히 곡류 등은 갈아 수비하여 이용하였으며, 동물성식품재료를 이용 할 때에는 재료를 만화(중간불)로 오랫동안 끓여 된장이나 향신료 등을 함께 사용해 먹기에 수월하게 조리하였으며, 한약재료인 약초류 등을 이용하였는데 오랫동안 푹 삶아 그물에 곡류 등을 넣어 죽이나 밥으로 조리하였으며 면으로도 조리하였다. 이상과 같이 조선시대 주식류의

본 연구에서는 2기의 부직포 여과막 생물반응조를 60분/60분의 포기/비포기 시간비에서 교대로 포기시키고 폐수를 주입시키면서 C/N비(COD/TKN)를 10에서 2까지 점감시켜 유입수의 C/N비가 유기물 및 질소 제거효율에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 실험에 사용된 폐수는 I시의 음식물 쓰레기 처리장에서 배출되는 침출수를 COD가 약 2,500 mg/L 정도 되도록 20배 희석시킨 것으로, C/N비는 염화암모늄($NH_4Cl$)을 첨가하여 조정하였다. 실험결과, $10{\sim}3$의 C/N비에서는 유출수의 COD 및 BOD 농도가 각각 $40{\sim}54\;mg/L$ 및 $1{\sim}4\;mg/L$로 나타났으며, 처리수의 SS농도는 항상 2.0 mg/L 미만으로 유지되었다. $10{\sim}5$의 C/N비에서는 96%의 총질소 제거효율를 보였으나 3 및 2.8의 C/N비에서는 총질소 제거효율이 각각 83% 및 81%로 낮아졌다. 2 및 2.6의 C/N비에서는 암모니아 독성에 의하여 처리수의 수질이 악화되었다. C/N비가 5에서 2.6으로 낮아질수록 질산화 미생물 분율이 10%에서 20%로 증가하였다. 알칼리도 소비량은 $10{\sim}5$의 C/N비에서는 $3.12{\sim}3.49\;g$ alkalinity/g T-N removed로 이론적인 값 3.57 g alkalinity/g T-N removed보다 낮았으나, 3 및 2.8의 C/N비에서는 4.63 및 4.87 g alkalinity/g T-N removed로 나타났다.

회전원판공정(rotating biological contactorRBC)과 화학적 처리공정을 결합한 처리시스템을 이용하여 도시하수내 포함된 유기물과 영양염류를 제거할 경우에 수리학적 부하 (hydraulic loading)와 처리수 반송율 (recirculation rate)의 시스템 처리효율에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 각각의 수리학적 부하 0.031, 0.0535 및 0.076 $m^3/m^2/d에서 반송율을 100%, 200%, 300%로 변화시켰고, 질산화에 필요한 알카리도의 보충 및 화학적 처리를 위하여 lime(CaCO$_3$)을 가하여 유입수의 pH를 10.4-11.0으로 유지시켰다. 실험결과 수리학적 부하 0.0535 $m^3/m^2/d에서 BOD, COD의 제거효율이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 질산화 효율 및 질소 제거효율에서는 수리학작 부하 0.035 $m^3/m^2/d, 반송율 300%에서 가장 높았으며, 반송율별에서는 수리학적 부하를 고려할 때 300% 반송하는 것이 가장 높은 유기물 제거효율을 보였다. 반송율과 수리학적 부하를 증가시킬 경우에 발생되는 슬러지내 유기물 함량은 점점 증가하였고, 수리학적 부하 0.076 $m^3/m^2/d, 반송율 300%일 경우에는 유기물 함량이 47%로 매우 높았다. 이는 부하증가에 따른 미생물 성장의 증가와 더불어 수리학적 부하 증가에 따른 전단력의 증가가 영향을 미쳤기 때문이다. 인을 제거하기 위하여 pH를 10.4-11.0으로 유지시킨 경우에 인을 90%이상 제거할 수 있었으며, 유출수내 평균 SS농도는 40 mg/l를 상회하였다.

Results obtained from this research showed that the anaerobic contact process was applicable to pear waste with COD removal efficiencies of up to $95\%$ depending on conditions, provided ammonium and phosphate salts were added as well as other nutrients, present in the commercial fertilizer, Milorganite or in yeast extract. These latter materials were required in minimum concentrations of 5 and 1.5 g/L, respectively, in the feed independent of HRT and volatile solids loading rate, with part of the effect due to the mineral fraction. Digestion was satisfactory over the whole range of volatile solids loading rates and liquid retention time of 30 to 0.5 days tested, although treatment efficiency dropped off noticeably between 1 and 0.5 day liquid retention time because of poorer flocculation and separation of anaerobic bacteria. Settling of anaerobic bacteria including methane producing bacteria was related to settling of mixed liquor suspended solids only at 1 to 5 days liquid retention times, at other liquid retention times anaerobic microorganism settled markedly less efficiently than mixed liquor suspended solids. Further studies are being made to provide information of practical and basic interest. Data on the composition of the active fraction of yeast extract might solve many practical nutrient problems encountered with the anaerobic contact process and improve its economics. Further improvement in the flocculation and settling of anaerobic bacteria as well as other bacteria would improve overall performance and allow the use of shorter liquid retention times with dilute waste. Knowledge about the numbers of methane formers present would allow a degree of understanding and control of the process not presently attainable.

Urban stormwater runoff is the one of the most extensive causes of deterioration of water quality in streams in urban areas. Especially, in the Suyeong River watershed, non-point sources from urban-residential areas are the most common cause of water pollution. Also, it has been ascertained that BOD and COD as indexes of organic matter, have limitation on management of Suyeong River's water quality. In this study, changes of organic matter properties of Suyeong River from inflow of non-point source during rainfall were investigated. Fractions of organic matters were analyzed using water samples collected at two sites (Suyeong River and Oncheon Stream) during a rain event. Variations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration by rainfall were similar to flow rate change in the river. Distribution of organic matter fraction according to change of rain duration revealed that while hydrophilic component increased at initial rainfall, the hydrophobic component was similar to change in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration. Also, the relative proportion of hydrophilic components in organic matter in river water increased, due to rainfall. Results of biodegradation of organic matters revealed that decomposition rate of organic matters during rainfall was higher than that of during a non-rainfall event.
