  • This paper presents the results of using cold plasma to treat surface water for domestic use purpose. Experimental results showed that cold plasma was an effective method for destroying bacteria in water. After treatment with cold plasma, concentration of coliform and Escherichia coli dramatically reduced. Besides, cold plasma significantly removed water odor, increased dissolved oxygen and decreased the concentration of chemical oxygen demand. However, cold plasma significantly raised the concentration of nitrite and nitrate. Other disadvantages of treating with cold plasma were conductivity increase and pH reduction. Pretreatment steps of coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation and sand filtration followed by disinfection with cold plasma exhibited a high efficiency in surface water treatment. All parameters of surface water after treatment by using the prototype satisfied with the allowance standard of domestic water quality.

  • A small-scale electro-dialysis system was constructed for domestic use. It is composed of six compartments in which five special polystyrene ionic membranes are housed. A series of experiments on the transport of sodium and chloride ions through polystyrene membranes was performed and the effects of electric current and voltage on the pH of water were investigated. This electrodialyser could reduce the NaCl content to an acceptable level (5307 mg/L) when water containing 9945 mg/L of sodium chloride is fed to the electrodialyser. The reduction was by the action of direct current 60 mA/100 mA when a 15 V / 20 V potential is maintained across the membrane. The results showed that the pH of the treated water attained a value in the range of 7-8, with the chloride concentration of 5307 mg/L when the voltage was in the range of 20 volts. This was achieved when two of the small-scale electro-dialysers were placed in series and the solutions from the respective compartments were mixed. This is considered useful because this complies to the requirement of drinking water standard both in terms of chloride and pH. Therefore, this type electrodialyserhas the potential for domestic uses in isolated houses where potable water supply is not available.

This study was performed in 4 kinds of pollutant sources from domestic sewage, industrial waste water, livestock stall waste water and drainage of agricultural area during the period from april to october 1988. These results were as follows: 1. The sewage flow for domestic waste water was 191.2 l/capita, day and that of the gray and toilet waste water among the domestic waste water were shown 152.9 l/capita, day(80%) and 38.3 l/capita, day(20%), respectively. 2. The unit loading factor total nitrogen(T-N) for domestic waste water was 7.582g/capita, day, and that of the gray and toilet waste water among the domestic waste water were 1.826g/ capita, day(24.1%) and 5.756g/capita, day(75.9%), respectively. The other hand, the unit loading factors of total phosphorus(T-P) for domestic waste water was 0.925g/capita, day, and that of gray and toilet waste water among the domestic waste water were 0.470g/capita, day(50.8%) and 0.455g/capita, day(49.2%), respectively. 3. In offering Price per million won, the T-P loading factor for drinking manufacture, confectionery manufacture, beer-manufacture and fibre manufacture in the industrial pollutant sources estimate to be 0.350g/day, 0.099g/day, 32.351g/day and 1.536g/day, while T-N loading factor about them in the industrial pollutant sources estimate to be 4.117g/day, 2.414g/day, 106.726g/day and 60.504g/day, respectively. 4. The T-P loading factor according to wash-water of milch cow and pig were 6.735g/day and 18.526g/day, in case of T-N they were 42.397g/day and 27.226g/day, respectively. 5. The T-P loading factor for pollutants drainage in the Paddy fields, fields and forests area were 0.082g/are, day, 0.014g/are, day and 0.002g/are, day, and the T-N loading factor were 0.309g/are, day, 0.158g/are, day and 0.064g/are, day, respectively. The diffrent of the loading factor for pollutants discharges in the agricultural area were resulted from the rainful intensity, the rainful, the amount of fertilization manure, and etc.

  • The water supply system has been designing by decision process such as calculation of water supply amount, capacity of water tanks and pumps, pipe size. Especially, when we estimate excessively water supply amount, the initial cost and running cost will increase according to enlargement of the water tank and pump capacity, and water quality of ground water tank can become worse. Therefore, calculation of water supply amount is basically most important factor. In order to calculate exactly water supply amount applying domestic real situation, we should set up basic data as well as study calculation methods. This research would consider calculation methods of water supply amount for school building through examine domestic and foreign basic data of water supply amount and characteristics of domestic school, and estimate daily water supply in high school.

  • A water quality analysis of rainwater collected from catchment equipment ($2m{\times}1m$) was conducted to determine its suitability for domestic purposes, in this study. As the results of analysis, the pH of rainwater was $6.3{\pm}0.3$, and the turbidity of rainwater was over the 5 times than drinking water guidelines. For the usage of rainwater as the domestic and drinking water, the rainwater is need to treat. The analysis values of heavy metal as the Pb, Cd, Fe, Mn, ${Cr_6}^+$ and Cu was satisfied with drinking guidelines. Rainwater quality was improved in the rainfall duration. Overall results of analysis support the possibility of rainwater as the domestic and drinking water.

  • Water quality in the public water course has been polluted more seriously than ever before due to the increase of the number and aremount of pollution sources such as domestic and industrial wastewater. For water quality conservation, the Korean government has been trying to construct sewage treatment facilities continually, of which treatment capacity reached to 11,452,400m$^{3}$/day in 1996. Night soil treatment facilites of m nationwide have the treatment capacity of 24,038m$^{3}$/day. But water quality has not been improved because the sewer systems were insufficient and the treatment efficiencies of sewage were not high, enough. For renovation of water quality, miscellaneous domestic wastewater must be treated because 27g BOD/day out of total 40g BOD/person-day come from miscellaneous wastewater, comparing to 13g BOD/day from night soil. However, sole treatment purifier treat only night soil from the flushing toilet. Therefore, it may be desirable to treat the miscellaneous domestic wastewater and the night soil from flushing toilet together by joint treatment purifier system as on-site domestic wastewater treatment technology. In Korea, the joint treatment purifier system, introduced in 1997, have the benefit as follows; i) good water poiluion control effect, ii ) good effect on river water flow, iii) water pollution control with sewage treatment facility, and iv) rapid pollution control effect, etc. In order to achieve a good effect as stated before, i ) strengthening effluent guideline including BOD, nitrogen and phosphorus, ii ) specializing operation to maintain high performance, and iii) supporting its construction and maintenance costs by the governmental level may be necessary: In addition, automation system of joint treatment purifier, technology for its package and compactness, and a new bio-media bio-filter with higher capacity should be further developed in agreement with a more stringent effluent guideline.
