The kernel of wastewater treatment by activated sludge is elimination of organic substances and maintenance of well-flocculated sludge sedimentation. By the conventional activated sludge treatment, the optimum F/M ratio of soybean wastewater treatment was 0.24 (kg-BOD/kg-MLVSS day) and sludge bulking was generated at 0.48 (kg-BOD/kg-MLVSS day). To improve the treatment capacity and operation quality in higher loading of soybean wastewater, influent pH was constantly controlled by 9.0 using NaOH as a coagulant agent. In this process, higher loading up to 2.88 (kg-BOD/kg-MLVSS day) was possible and SVI was maintained under 150 without bulking. This was equivalent to 7.2 times higher than maximum permissible load of the conventional activated sludge process.

We studied the effects of vibration stimulation method on upper limbs spasticity in patients with brain lesion. 21 patients with spasticity of the upper limbs selected and divided randomly 3 groups. And then vibratory stimulation was applied to the triceps brachii muscle in group I(n=7), to biceps brachii muscle in group II (n=7), and to both muscles in group III (n=7). Using Neuro-EMG_Micro to investigate the changes in spinal neuronal excitability, F-waves were measured at before and directly after stimulation, and 10 minutes later and 20 minutes later after stimulation especially. MAS(Modified Ashworth Scale) test for muscle tone and MFT(Manual Function Test) for the upper extremity motor function were performed before stimulation and 20 minutes later after stimulation for the purpose of clinical evaluation. In our study, MAS was significant decreased in all groups, F wave and F/M ratio parameters were decreased in all groups and more decreased specially in group III. MFT was increased in group II and III, and more increased specially in group III. Vibration stimulation reduced the neuronal excitability of spinal cord and also muscle tone, and improved the motor function of the upper extremity. These results suggested that vibration stimulation giving to both muscles(triceps and biceps brachii muscle) at the same time was more efficiency in reducing the neuronal excitability of spinal cord and improving the motor function of the upper limbs.

종이 펄프 공장의 폐수는 다른 공업에 비해서 폐수량이 많고 오염도가 높다. 목재로부터 종이를 제조하는 경우에 수율은 종이의 종류와 제법에 의해 큰 차이가 있어서 한마디로 말하기는 어렵지만 평균 50~70%로 보는 경우, 목재 성분의 30~50%는 용해 또는 SS의 상태로 폐수중에 존재하기 때문에, 이들이 직접 하천이나 바다에 방류되면 오염의 원인이 된다. 그 때문에 각 공장에서는 목재자원의 종합적인 이용의 입장으로서 제품의 수율을 좋게 하고 동시에 폐수의 양을 감소시키고 폐수에서 유용한 자원을 회수하거나 증해약품의 회수 등을 위하여 연구 및 노력을 계속하고 있는 것이 현 상태이다. 우리 나라의 거의 모든 제지회사에서는 물리적, 화학적 처리법과 생물학적 처리법 중 호기성 처리방법이 주 처리방법으로 사용되고 있으며 탈묵 폐수나 리그닌을 다량 함유하는 폐수의 경우에는 혐기성 처리방법을 이용하기도 한다. 본 실험에서는 우유팩을 재생하여 화장지 제조의 원료로 이용하는 G제지공장의 폐수를 이용하였고, 공장의 원폐수를 부상법으로 1차 처리한 처리수를 실험실로 운반하여 활성슬러지법으로 실험하였다. 처리효율의 영향인자인 HRT를 G제지공장에 맞추어 12시간으로 조정하고 적절한 F/M비(0.23)를 위해 COD와 MLSS가 유지된 후부터 실험을 시작했다. $20^{\circ}C{\sim}560^{\circ}C$까지 $10^{\circ}C$간격으로 온도를 변화시키면서 미생물의 상태변화를 관찰하고, 또한 각 용도에서의 처리수질을 비교해 보았다. 실험조건은 pH는 중성상태(6.5~7.5), DO는 $2{\sim}4mg/{\ell}$, 영양원은 BOD : N : P = 100 : 5 : 1로 맞추고 BOD, COD, SS, SVI를 측정하였으며, 현미경을 통하여 미생물과 Floc를 관찰하였다. $20^{\circ}C$부터 종균제를 초기 운전시 $200mg/{\ell}$ (분말상)을 폭기조에 투여하고 매일 $200mg/{\ell}$를 정기적으로 투입하여 온도변화에 따른 미생물의 상태 및 처리수질을 비교해보았다. 특히 종균제로는 기존의 G제G지공장에서 사용하는 신일 미생물(Bio sound S)종균제와 청림C&C의 종균제(Cell bio P)를 비교 관찰하였다. 고온성 종균제를 두배 투입하여 투입량에 대한 처리효율을 비교하였으며 종균제를 사용하지 않고 운용함으로써 그 차이도 비교할 수 있었다.

To improve the ability of oxygen transfer in Biological Fluidised Bed(BFB) processes, air lift aeration system was introduced, experimental investigations were performed for the oxygen transfer in reactor, the fluidisation as to Biomass Volatile Solids variation and the relationship between substrate removal rate and oxygen utilization. The experiments for this purpose were executed for the synthetic wastewater by continuous type reactor at $20^{\circ}C$ using reticulated polypropylene sheets as media. The obtained results showed that the oxygen transfer by air lift aeration would be more effective than any other aeration systems used in BFB reactor. Also, it has observed that the critical biomass concentration in reactor took a range of 20 to 23g/l. Applying cages to BFB reactor, biomass would be maintained uniformly in the bed and the fluidisation characteristics of media could be improved. Varying F/M ratio from 0.36 to 0.73, BOD removals were 91% or more. Therefore, this process was suited to the treatment of which F/M ratios are variable and specific oxygen uptake rates ($K_r$) were 0.23 to 0.26g $O_2/g\;VSS{\cdot}day$ at range of 15 to 20g BVS/l.

The purpose of this research was to compare the nutrient removal efficiency, and to estimate the net reaction time in order to calculate a "phase" transfer rate. SBR(SBR1) with flexible verticals and single reactor SBR(SBR1). Consequently, the removal efficiencies of $COD_{Cr}$, and $BOD_5$ in SBR1 and SBR2 were 91.5%, 97.5% and 90.4%, 97.3%, Respectively. Accordingly, the organic removal efficiency was not distinguished in both processes. In the T-N and T-P removal efficiencies, however, SBR1 obtained higher removal efficiency than SBR2, at 12.1% and 7.6% respectively. Also, in the experiment to estimate the "phase" transfer rate, SBR1 was higher than SBR2 Because SBR1 has two phases in the single reactor simultaneously, it has the buffer capacity to reduce the "phase" transfer time and provides a definite reaction condition.

This study was focused on removal efficiency of complex (or mixed) wastewater from agricultural and industrial plant for advanced treatments by HBR-II process, that was well known to be suitable to the treatment of livestock wastewater. The main purpose of this study was intended to evaluate the applicable feasibility of the HBR-II for revamping the present activated sludge process to the advanced one. And also, the settling study including the batch typed experimental column tests was performed to evaluate the coagulation stability of organic colloidal particles in wastewater. The mid-scale plant of HBR-II process between pilot and laboratory was used for this study. As F/M ratio remains constant in the range of 0.20~0.25 $BOD_5/Kg{\cdot}MLSS/Day$, the efficiency of biological treatment increased. It has been shown that the results of biodegradation study were, for removal efficiency(%), $BOD_5$ 98.4%, $COD_{Mn}$ 92.9%, SS 97.5%, T-N 91.3%, T-P 82.3%, respectively, which were relatively higher than other processes. From this study, HBR-II process would be well applied to the biological treatment of agricultural and industrial complex wastewater.

The factors affecting on sludge sedimentation are reported as F/M ratio, ingredient, composition of influent substrate, dissolved oxygen concentration, temperature, pH, filamentous bacteria and SRT. Aeration tank applying Bacillus sp. has an important role for maintaining the dominant microorganism species to make steady progress for spore growth affecting sedimentation. This research aims to investigate the affecting factor for the sedimentation in B3 system and RABC system with aeration tank applying tapered aeration. Extracellular polymeric substances(EPS), protein and carbohydrate can be produced for the extreme condition, that is down to 0.2 mg/L of dissolved oxygen in the aeration tank. This research found out the relation between the sedimentation and the EPS production, especially the ratio of protein/carbohydrate. The spore of Bacillus sp. was formed at the low DO then microorganisms produced EPS. The results showed that the production of EPS was 109.95 mgEPS/gSS at 1.6 mg/L of DO, however it was 131.77 mgEPS/gSS at 0.5 mg/L of DO. The sedimentation was affected by protein content in EPS and the ratio of protein and carbohydrate. The settleability of sludge was not affected by the ratio of protein/carbohydrate in B3 process, meanwhile settleability was affected by the ratio of it in RABC process, respectively.

Many BNR (Biological Nutrient Removal) plants have experienced a bulking problem, mainly due to the growth of filamentous organisms, particularly during the winter months. This study investigated the problem of bulking due to the growth of M. parvicella both at a full-scale municipal wastewater treatment plant and a pilot scale plant located in the C city. The full-scale facility was operated at a flow rate of $51,000m^3/d$, an F/M (Food-to-Microorganism) ratio of 0.12 kgBOD/kgMLVSS/d and an SRT (Solids Retention Time) higher than 25 days, respectively. This plant experienced bulking and foaming problems at low temperatures below $15^{\circ}C$ since it was retrofitted with the BNR system in 2003. The pilot plant employed had an identical process configuration as the full scale one and used the same wastewater source. It was operated at a flow rate of $3.8m^3/d$, temperatures between 10 to $25^{\circ}C$ and SRTs between 10 and 25 days. At full scale, the M. parvicella growth and SVI (Sludge Volume Index) patterns were studied in conjunction with temperature variations. At pilot scale, DO and SRT variations were also explored, in addition to the filamentous bacteria growth and SVI patterns. During the full-scale investigation, over a 3 year period, it was noted that the SVI was maintained within acceptable operational values (i.e. under 160) during the summer months. Moreover settling in the secondary clarifiers was good and was not affected by the presence of M. parvicella. In contrast, at low mean temperatures during winter, the SVI increased to over 300. Overall, as the temperature decreased, the predominance of M. parvicella became apparent. According to this study, M. parvicella growth could be controlled and SVI could drop under 160 by a change in operational conditions which involved an increase in DO concentration between 2 and 4 mg/L and a decrease in SRT to less than 20 days.

This paper has concentrated on estimating the possibility and mathematical analysis for the application of BFB to the treatment of nightsoil with low dilution rate. The experiment for the study of this purpose was conducted by continuous type reactor at $20^{\circ}C$, varying F/M ratio from 0.12 to 0.37 and dilution ratio from 2 to 10, and in it provided matted reticulated polypropylene sheets for the solid supports. The obtained results showed that the application of BFB to the treatment of nightsoil would be more effective than any other biological treatment process. Also, it has observed that the optimum dilution ratio was about 5 times and the optimum HRT was about 17 hours, and then it was estimated that the reactor volume and the quantity of weak water could be reduced to the extent of 70 percent and 80 percent. The experimental results of BFB could be analysed by the mathematical models applied to complete mixing activated sludge process. The substrate removal rates which were obtained by McKinney's($K_m$) and EcKenfelder's($K_e$) equation was 1.784/hr and $2.0{\times}10l/mg{\cdot}day$, and substrate was removed very rapidly compared to those of conventional type biological treatment processes. The biomass yield coefficient($a_5$), the endogeneous respiration rate(b), the synthesis oxygen demand rate($a{_5}^{\prime}$), and the endogeneous respiration oxygen demand rate(b') were 0.349, 0.0237/day, 0.495 and 0.0336, respectively.

외국에서 ASM 모델의 BNR 적용 연구결과를 국내 하수에 적용하기에는 하수농도, 온도, 슬러지농도 등이 국내와는 달라 적용상 무리가 있다. 본 연구에서 BNR 시뮬레이션을 위한 입력 자료로 활용되는 인자들은 IAWPRC task group에서 제안하는 값들을 사용하되 국내 하수성상에서 필요로 하는 인자들은 직접 실험을 통하여 부분적으로 구해냄으로써 모델 시뮬레이션의 신뢰도를 높이고자 하였다. F/M비의 변화량과 1/SRT과의 관계로부터, 종속영양미생물 생산계수 $Y_H$값을 구한결과, 0.40mg VSS/mg COD였다. 이것을 ASM No.2d에 적용하기 위하여 mg cell COD formed/mg COD oxidized 단위로 환산한 결과 0.58을 나타냈다.
