As the total organic carbon (TOC) becomes a new water quality standard as an organic matter (OM) index for public sewage treatment facilities (PSTFs) in Korea from 2021, a comparison study needs to be conducted by examining the correlation between TOC and the existing OM indices (DOC, BOD5, CODMn, CODCr). 500 PSTFs were categorized by process configuration and capacity, and correlation between OM indices in influent and effluent was analyzed. The CODMn/TOC showed higher correlation than other OM indices. This results can be used to basic data for various research associated with TOC.

A 2㎥/d combined wastewater treatment pilot plant containing the multi-stage vertical stacking type nitrification reactor was installed and operated for more than 1 year under the operating conditions of the short-circuit nitrogen process (pH 8, DO 1mg/L and Internal return rate 4Q from nitrification to denitrification reactor). For economically the combination treatment of food wastewater and the leachate from a landfill, the optimal combination ratio was operated by adjusting the food wastewater with the minimum oil content to 5-25% of the total throughput. The main treatment efficiency of the three-phase centrifugal separator which was introduced to effectively separate solids and oil from the food wastewater was about 52% of SS from 116,000mg/L to 55,700mg/L, and about 48% of normal hexane (NH) from 53,200mg to 27,800 mg/L. During the operational period, the average removal efficiency in the combined wastewater treatment process of BOD was 99.3%, CODcr 94.2%, CODmn 90%, SS 70.1%, T-N 85.8%, and T-P 99.2%. The average concentrations of BOD, CODcr, T-N, and T-P of the treated water were all satisfied with the discharge quality standard for landfill leachate ("Na" region), and SS was satisfied after applying the membrane process. On-site leachate had a relatively high nitrite nitrogen content in the combined wastewater due to intermittent aeration of the equalization tanks and different monthly discharges. Nevertheless nitrite nitrogen was accumulated, denitrification from nitrite nitrogen was observed rather than denitrification after complete nitrification. The average input of anti-forming chemical during the operation period is about 2L/d, which seems to be economical compared to the input of methanol required to treat the same wastewater.

A large quantity of ethylene glycol(EG) is remained in the effluent after pretreating polyester weight-loss wastewater physicochemically in the fist stage and must be treated biologically in the second stage. Therefore, an excellent EG-utilizing bacteria strain was isolated from the natural system and the optimal culture conditions of the strain were investigated. The optimal culture conditions of temperature, pH, and nitrogen source were found to be 35$^{\circ}C$, 7.5 and ammonium chloride, respectively, when CODCr removal efficiency was more than 90%. The growth of stains and EG removal efficiency was slightly improved by adding elements such as niacin and biotin. With increasing inoculation size in a batch culture, the removal efficiency of EG was conspicuously increased. Growth rate was inhibited when the initial concentration of EG was more then 30g/L. The strain was identified as Pseudomonas sp. based on morphological and biological characteristics and named as Pseudomonas sp. EG1.

$TiO_2$의 흡착에 의한 폐수처리는 거의 없으며, 본 실험의 T 산업 폐수에 평균 65mg/L 포함된 다량의 Cl￣ 이온은 광산화 반응의 억제제(inhibitor)로서 작용하는 것으로 사료되었다. 암모니아성 질소가 초기 40 mg/L에서 운전시간 24 시간 후에는 60 mg/L까지 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 질산성 질소의 농도는 15 mg/L 까지 증가하였다. ${PO_4}^{3-}$ 의 농도 변화는 거의 없었으며 1 mg/L 이하의 낮은 농도로 존재하였으며, 무기탄소 양은 매우 소량으로 거의 변화가 없었다. 운전기간 동안 pH 2.4 ～ 2.6으로 수렴하였고 반응속도의 변화는 거의 없었으며, CODcr에 대한 $BOD_{5}$의 분율은 반응이 진행될수록 증가하는 것으로 보아 난분해성의 폐수가 광촉매 반응 후 생물학적 처리가 가능한 폐수로 변화되었음을 알 수 있었다.

The paved areas in nonpoint source are highly polluted landuses because of high imperviousness and pollutant mass emissions, such as sand, cereals, and dust from vehicle activities. Most of them in highways are collected by cleaning trucks or discharged to the adjacent soil and water system through the drain ditch in stormwater. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the relationship between water concentration and total pollutant loadings from the paved areas. From the experiment, CODcr concentration of the cleaning wastewater was 17 times greater than that of the stormwater runoff. Also, concentrations of heavy metals (Cu, Fe, Zn) were 1.3 to 1.5 times higher when compared to the stormwater runoff. While total discharged loadings was insignificant in the cleaning wastewater. In conclusion, these results provide some evidence that the stormwater runoff may be managed carefully to the aspect of total pollutant loadings and the cleaning wastewater may be handled cautiously with the pollutant concentrations in highways.

In Korea, almost every water treatment plant suffers from seasonal problem of algae and turbidity which result from eutrophication and heavy rainfall. To relieve this problem, experimental investigation was performed to study the applicability of a floating-media and sand filter to preliminary water treatment in terms of algae and turbidity removal. Experimental results using pure-cultured algae influent showed that the shape of algae species as well as filtration velocity affects the removal efficiency. From the experiments using natural river water, it was concluded that algae removal is more sensitive to floating-media depth but turbidity more sensitive to sand depth. As the filtration velocity increased, the removal of turbidity decreased but that of algae was not affected. The floating-media and sand filter removed more than 30 % of TP, TN, turbidity, Chl-a and CODcr, and less than 20 % of DOC and $UV_{254}$.

Fenton-like oxidation of para-nitrophenol(PNP) was studied using hydrogen peroxide iii combination with steeler's dust substituted for ferrous iron in Fenton's reaction. Various factors critical in the degradation of PNP were studied, including hydrogen peroxide dosage, concentration of steeler's dust. and initial pH. Experimental results showed that 1,000mg/L PNP and its oxidation intermediate could be mostly decomposed within 30m1n by 10g/L steeler's dust, 0.25% hydrogen peroxide, and initila pH of 3.0. The reaction rate constant (k) of CODcr concentration were calculated with the addition of steeler's dust(0.0059 min$^{-1}$ (g/L)$^{-1}$ ) and hydrogen peroxide(0.2965 min$^{-1}$ (%)$^{-1}$ ), respectively.

In this study, to evaluate the performance of leachate collection and removal system, the clogging of geotextile filter was tested and simulated for HELP. As a result of clogging test, the all permeability of geotextiles were decreased rapidly in several day. Also, $Ca^{2+}$ and CODcr concentrations were decreased during test. In model simulation for HELP, Daily discharge volume was shown insignificant change with the filter clogging. however, this result may effect on increasing of the hydraulic gradient in waste layer.r.

노은 매립지는 사용종료된지 5년이 경과된 비위생매립지로 최종복토는 되어 있으나 침출수 차집시설 및 매립가스 포집설비가 제대로 갖추어지지 않은 상태이다. 환경부의 사용종료 매립 지 정비지침에 의하면 침출수의 BOD/CODcr 비율이 1/10 수준임으로 침출수의 안정화 과정이 거의 완결상태로 진행되고 있는 것으로 판단된다. 매립지 가스의 안정화 측면에서는 CH4의 비 율이 5%정도이기 때문에 안정화가 거의 이루어진 것으로 볼 수 있다. 매립된 쓰레기 중에서 플 라스틱을 제외한 가연물 함량이 3.97 - 9.34%이기 때문에 매립폐기물은 안정화 기준에 미흡한 상태이다. 그리고 지하수는 대장균 항목이 지하수 수질기준 생활용수 기준에 미흡하여 안정화 기준을 충족시키지 못하고 있다. 노은매립지는 매립지 안정화의 속도가 평가 대상별로 상이하 게 진행되는 것으로 평가된다.

본 연구에서는 유입수의 변동이 심하고 전문가가 부재한 환경인 선박에서 발생하는 오수의 효과적인 처리를 위하여 RCM공법을 선박오수처리장치에 적용하는 실험실 규모의 실험을 수행하였다. 질소 인의 고도처리 효율과 선박이라는 특수환경과의 접목성을 검토한 결과 RCM공정에 유효미생물을 주입하는 방법은 선박환경에 적합한 것으로 평가되었다. 또한 RCM공정은 활성슬러지 공정에서 배출되는 슬러지는 배출시키지 않고 슬러지액화분해조(SDC)에서 재분해하여 순환함으로써, 최근 해양투기가 금지됨으로 인해 문제가 되고 있는 슬러지의 발생량을 최소한으로 하여 친환경적인 수처리가 가능하다. 복합미생물제제 주입 후 미생물 관찰결과 고도처리에 유리한 미생물종의 출현을 확인하였으며 이들의 상호기작으로 질소 인의 처리에 도움을 주어 처리효율이 높은것이라 판단된다. 유기물 제거효율 실험결과 $BOD_5$, CODcr T-N, T-P의 처리효율이 각각 96, 97, 78, 81.68 %로 나타나 Membrane이나 Filter없이도 강화되어가는 해양오염기준을 충족시킬 수 있는 공정으로 판단된다.
