Chlorine inhibition on the denitrifing activity of activated sludge treating dairy wastewater was investigated in this study. Filamentous bulking was caused artificially by a sudden load of feed and monitored by measuring sludge volume index. In cases of the activated sludge and bulking sludge which were contacted with chlorine as $7.5\;mgCl_2/gVSS/day$ for bulking control, the decreases of specific denitrification of $32.2{\sim}40.4%\;and\;43.5{\sim}46.5%$ were shown in comparison to the control group which was not reacted with chlorine, respectively. In continuous operation, it was observed that the removal efficiency of total nitrogen was more susceptible to chlorine than the removal efficiency of total phosphorus.

This study investigated the effect of organic matter on the precipitation of struvite and calcium phosphate for phosphorus recovery from synthetic dairy wastewater. Batch precipitation experiments were performed to precipitate phosphorus from solutions containing $PO_4{^{3-}}$ and $NH_4{^+}$ by the addition of $Mg^{2+}$ and $Ca^{2+}$, separately, at varying pH, Mg/P and Ca/P molar ratios, and organic matter concentrations. Soluble total organic solids exhibited more inhibition to precipitation due to potential interaction with other dissolved ionic species involved in phosphorus precipitation. Xylan with low total acidity only exhibited significant inhibition at very high concentrations in synthetic wastewater (at up to 100 g/L). No significant inhibition was observed for Mg and Ca precipitation at relatively lower concentrations (at up to 1.2 g/L). MINTEQ simulations show that dissolved organic matter (DOM) as humic substances (HS) can cause significant inhibition even at relatively low concentrations of 0.165 g/L fulvic acid. However, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis suggested that xylan altered the crystal structure of both precipitates and had caused the formation of smaller sized struvite crystals with slightly rougher surfaces This could be due to xylan molecules adhering on the surface of the crystal potentially blocking active sites and limit further crystal growth. Smaller particle sizes will have negative practical impact because of poorer settleability.

Magnetic biochar produced from pyrolysis of dairy cattle manure was used to develop an effective sorbent for arsenic purification from aqueous solution. Biomass and magnetized biomass were pyrolyzed in a tube furnace with 10 ℃/min heating rate at 450 ℃ under nitrogen flow of 100 cm³/min for 2 h. Biochars were characterized by SEM-EDX, BET, XDR, FTIR, TGA, zeta potential analysis. The resultant biochar and magnetic biochar were opposed to 50-100-500 ppm As(V) laden aqueous solution. Adsorption experiments were performed by using ASTM 4646-03 batch method. The effects of concentration, pH, temperature and stirring rate on adsorption were evaluated. As(V) was successfully removed from aqueous solution by magnetic biochar due to its highly porous structure, high aromaticity and polarity. The results suggest dairy cattle manure pyrolysis is a promising route for managing animal manure and producing a cost effective biosorbent for efficient immobilization of arsenic in aqueous solutions.

본 연구는 유가공 슬러지의 경우 하수 슬러지, 기타 산업폐수 슬러지에 비해 중금속 등 유해한 성분을 함유하지 않고, 높은 유기물 함량으로 슬러지 가용화를 통한 재활용의 가능성을 충분히 가지고 있으나 활발히 연구가 되지 않고 있어 초음파 전처리를 이용하여 재활용 가능성을 실험하였다. 1. 유가공 슬러지와 축산 슬러지를 20 kHz의 주파수와 700 W, 500 W의 조사강도, 조사시간 90분간 초음파 처리하여 고형물 변화를 비교한 결과, 유가공 슬러지의 TS와 VS 제거율이 28%, 14% 감소하였으며, 축산 슬러지는 13%, 7% 감소하였다. 2. SCOD 변화는 동일한 조건의 초음파 처리 시 유가공 슬러지의 경우 7.1배, 5.9배의 증가율을 보였으며, 축산 슬러지의 경우 4.9배, 4.0배로 나타났다. 슬러지 가용화 효율은 유가공 슬러지의 14.5%, 12.1%의 가용화 효율을 보였으며, 축산 슬러지의 경우 10.6%, 8.6%로 나타났다. SCOD 증가속도 또한 유가공 슬러지의 경우 $0.022m^{-1}$, $0.020m^{-1}$, 축산슬러지의 경우 $0.021m^{-1}$, $0.018m^{-1}$의 증가속도를 나타내었다. 3. Soluble N 농도의 변화는 유가공 슬러지의 경우 90분간 초음파 처리 후 3.4배, 2.2배 증가한 것으로 측정되었으며, 축산 슬러지의 90분간 초음파 처리 후 3배, 2배 증가한 것으로 나타났다. C/N 비의 경우 유가공 슬러지가 7.5, 8.7을 나타냈고, 축산 슬러지는 5.7, 6.4로 나타났다. 유가공 슬러지의 경우 TS, VS 감량을 통한 슬러지 발생량을 감소시킬 수 있으며 SCOD의 증가량이 많아 C/N비가 더 높게 나타난 것을 알 수 있다. 따라서 유가공 슬러지의 가용화를 통한 외부탄소원으로의 활용 가능성을 확인하였고, 향후 전처리방법의 조합 및 최적 처리조건 도출 등 후속 연구의 필요성이 높다고 사료된다.

Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the performances of anaerobic filters packed with ceramic tube and pall-ring media treating a dairy waste. The media packing volume was 65% of effective volume of anaerobic filter. Organics removals of anaerobic filters were maintained above 80% even at an organics loading rate of $10kgCOD/m^3/d$, and this was comparable to aerobic treatment of organic wastes. Organics removals of the ceramic tube anaerobic filters were always lower than those of the pall-ring anaerobic filters due to intrinsic physical property of ceramic tube, especially lower void space which caused to clogging and entrapment of biogas, substrate transfer limitation, and irregular evolution of biogas leading to loss of solids and biomass. This was clearly observed in higher concentration of TSS in the effluent from the ceramic tube anaerobic filter despite of higher retention capacity of TSS compared with pall-ring media. Vertical distribution of organics and solids in the filters showed above 90% of organics and solids in influent were removed below 20% of reactor height, and 50% of remaining organics and solids were removed though media packing zone. Effluent quality from the anaerobic filter was heavily depended on media itself as well as suspended biomass formed below media. It is therefore concluded that the type of media played an important role in biomass accumulation arid gas-liquid-solid separation efficiency. Type of media did not affect the start-up behaviors of the anaerobic filter, and supernatant from anaerobic digested sludge showed a good performance as a seeding materials.

In biological wastewater treatment, high lipid concentrations can inhibit the activity of microorganisms critical to the treatment process and cause undesirable biomass flotation. To reduce the inhibitory effects of high lipid concentrations, a two-phase anaerobic system, consisting of an anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (ASBR) and an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor in series, was applied to synthetic dairy wastewater treatment. During 153 days of operation, the two-phase system showed stable performance in lipid degradation. In the ASBR, a 13% lipid removal efficiency and 10% double-bond removal efficiency were maintained. In the UASB, the chemical oxygen demand (COD), lipid, and volatile fatty acid (VFA) removal efficiencies were greater than 80%, 70%, and 95%, respectively, up to an organic loading rate of 6.5 g COD/l/day. No serious operational problems, such as significant scum formation or sludge washout, were observed. Protein degradation was found to occur prior to degradation during acidogenesis.

The objectives of this study were to characterize the wastewater flow through the VFS, and relate this to the P removal in the VFS. A total of 68 subsurface wells (20∼40 cm below the soil surface) and 35 surface wells (0~5 cm), and the application of chloride tracer were used to investigate flow paths and soluble reactive P (SRP) removal from the 21 m wide and 33 m long VFS receiving dairy milkhouse waste. The early chloride breakthroughs in wells in the center of the VFS showed that the milkhouse waste flows preferentially down in the center of the hillslope. The locally saturated area created near the discharge pipe in the center of the VFS accelerates surface flow that contributed to rapid transport of P to the down slope area. Although VFS of 33m long eventually reduced SRP to lower than 0.2 mg/L in most cases, SRP is less effectively removed in the areas where soil saturation occurred. It is suggested that the effort to distribute the wastewater uniformly to avoid soil saturation and reduce the flow velocity need to be considered in new designs.

Enterobacter sp. producing -$\beta$-galactosidase with high transgalactosylation activity was isolated from dairy wastewater. The isolate had common biochemical features to E. aerogenes and E. cloacae. Enzyme production increased as the cell mass increased with optimum enzyme activity of 0.21 Unit/mg-protein (o-nitro-phenyl-$\beta$ -D-galactoside (ONPG) as substrate) until 8 hr of culture. Whole cells permeabilized by toluene were used to produce galacto-oligosaccharide. Optimum toluene concentration, temperature and pH for -$\beta$-galactosidase activity of permeabilized whole cells were 10% (v/v), $50^{\circ}C$ and 6.0, respectively. A maximum of 38% (w/w) of galacto-oligosaccharide was obtained with lactose concentration of 20% (w/w) at $40^\{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0.
