Computational simulation has been performed to design optimally the filtration system for IGCC pilot plant. It was analyzed how the different inflow pattern influences the flow field and the particle behavior in a filter vessel. The particle loading onto the filter surface lowers significantly and decreases dramatically with particle size when the dusty gas flows into the filter vessel with a shroud tube through a tangential inlet setup tangentially on the vessel outer wall. However, the particle loading is considerably high when the dusty gas enters the filter vessel through a normal inlet setup vertically on the vessel top wall, and the decrease of the particle loading with particle size is not steeper compared with the tangential inflow pattern.

The Sin-Wol filtration plant was an urban infrastructure and off-limits to the public. It is recreated as a representative experiential theme park in the southwest area. It has not only provided places to relax, but has made a new model of urban park by reusing advantages. The current lack of easy access into the park area almost isolates it like a green island. The neighborhood surrounding the park does not have many physical connections to the park to be able to use it. By connecting the surrounding communities with numerous access points into the park and linking the hiking trails and bike paths, the city's need for open space and recreation would be far better satisfied than before. This would allow for the use of the valuable assets of the existing forest and open space.

The H water treatment plant has been operating since 1982 and has had no renovation. It is assumed that the filters have been operated for more than 30 years and therefore are deteriorated. Many of the filters show an unequal state of air scouring during backwashing. For this study one filter, which was presumed most deteriorated among eighteen filters, was selected as a model filter for renovation. Some of the effects seen after renovation of the underdrain system were a lower average filtrated turbidity by approximately 0.02 NTU and an equal backwash state throughout the filter bed. Sand wash efficiencies by backwash before renovation of the underdrain system were 28%, 8%, and 5% at the surface, 50 cm depth, and 100 cm depth, respectively, and after renovation of the underdrain system were 94%, 26%, and 15%, respectively. The standard deviation of the effective sand size was 0.025-0.033 mm before renovation of the underdrain system and 0.002-0.011 mm after renovation of the underdrain system, meanings there was equal backwash pressure throughout the filter. Filtration time after renovation was approximately 2 times longer than before renovation.

Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV) was a major pathogen of watermelon and had affected seriously to watermelon production in Korea. Rapid and sensitive detection method of CGMMV associated with bottle gourd (Lagenafia siceraria) seeds was developed by using RT-PCR in this study. A pair of primeri Wmfl and Wmrl, specific for CGMMV was designed from coat protein gene sequences of CGMMV-W and used for amplifying 420 bp product in RT-PCR. To simplify the virus extraction procedure and reduce an inhibitor from the extract for the RT-PCR, some methods using ethanol precipitation, double filtration, polyethylene glycol precipitation and phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol extraction procedure were compared and the phenol/chloroform/isoamyl alcohol extraction procedure was selected by its enhanced sensitivity. This detection method using the selected extraction step and the primers for RT-PCR could reliably detect an infected level of one CGMMV-infested seed in 1,000 seeds. This rapid and sensitive RT-PCR assay provides auseful tool for the specific detection of CGMMV in bottle gourd seed samples containing high levels of back-ground inhibitors.

Two forms of homo serine dehydrogenase have been isolated from 8-day-old cotyledons of Canavalin lineata by a heat denaturation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-8ephacel ion exchange and Sephacryl 8-300 gel filtration chromatographies, and Pro cion red dye, Cibacron blue dye and Resource Q column chromatographies. The molecular weights of T -form (threonine-sensitive) and K-form(threonine- insensitive) were estimated to 230 kD and 135 kD, respectively. In the presence of 10 mM threonine, the activity of T-form was inhibited with almost 70%, but that of K-form was not at all. The Km values tor homo serine of T- and Kform were 1.6 mM and 0.3 mM, respectively. The Km values for NAD of T- and K-form were 2.34 mM and 0.03 mM, respectively. And Km values for NADP of two isozymes were the same as 0.01 mM. The activities of T- and K-form were markedly stimulated up to 4.9and 2.8-fold, respectively, by 400 mM KCI. The partial purified(gel filtration) enzymes(Tform and K-form) can be reversibly converted.verted.

Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) employ a process of biological treatment that is based on a membrane that has the advantages of producing high-quality treated water and possessing a compact footprint. However, despite these advantages, the occurrence of "fouling" during the operation of these reactors causes the difficulty of maintenance. Hence, in this study, three physical cleaning methods, namely, backwashing, air scrubbing, and mechanical cleaning ball was performed to identify optimum operating conditions through laboratory scale experiments, and apply them in a pilot plant. Further, the existing MBR process was compared with these methods, and the field applicability of a combination of these physical cleaning methods was investigated. Consequently, MCB, direct control of cake fouling on the membrane surface was found to be the most effective. Moreover, as a result of operating with combination of the physical cleaning process in a pilot plant, the TMP increasing rate was found to be - 0.00007 MPa/day, which was 185% higher than that obtained using the existing MBR process. Therefore, assuming fouling only by cake filtration, about one year of operation without chemical cleaning is considered to be feasible through the optimization of the physical cleaning methods.

In order to plan out the Daegu G membrane filtration water treatment plant, water quantity, water quality and process stability were evaluated using the field pilot-scale tests, during the six months of continuous operation, including low water temperature period. The field model experiments, which were carried out according to the Installation Criteria of Ministry of Environment, consisted of two series : series 1 - water quality verification, and series 2 - membrane process evaluation. The process water quality met all drinking water standards with less than 0.03 NTU. Moreover, process operation showed a stable membrane pressure with 99% of recovery ratio. This shows that the tests were properly designed in terms of the influence of water loading and temperature. In conclusion, the purpose of this study is to establish core technology for advanced drinking water treatment, through on-going accumulation of engineering and construction know-how.

The removal efficiencies of 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) and geosmin were investigated to reveal removal characteristics of typical organic compounds causing disagreeable taste and odor at the conventional water treatment plant installed with pulsator clarifier patented by the French company $Degr{\acute{e}}mont$. The injection rate of Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) into water was changed step wisely as we conducted jar tests in the laboratory and water treatment in the actual plant. 2-MIB concentration decreased linearly while geosmin did exponentially along with the injection rate of PAC at our jar tests. The removal efficiency of geosmin by PAC injection was considerably higher than that of 2-MIB. In the real pulsator clarifier, 2-MIB concentration started decreasing as the injection rate reached up to 10 mg/L of PAC. On the other hand, the concentration of geosmin in water decreased proportional to the injection rate of PAC. In the sand filtration, removal efficiencies of 2-MIB and geosmin on July were much higher than those on March. It was carefully suggested beforehand and found afterwards that general microorganisms notably existed in the sand filter with no chlorine in filter influent and backwash water and the sand filter biologically activated removed much more odor compounds. It was considered as the reason why the removal efficiency of 2-MIB and geosmin was increased. The microbial activity maybe increased in summer with water temperature rising and low filtration rate possibly increased contact time between odor compounds and general microorganisms.

우리나라 대규모 하수처리장에 상용화되어있는 응집공정의 운영상 난점을 극복하고자 대체공정으로 고안된 인 결정여과공정(HCF, Hydroxyapatite Crystallization-Filtration process)의 pilot plant를 구축하고 부산슬러지의 자원화를 위해 그 특성을 검토하였다. 기존의 hydroxyapatite(HAP) 결정화공정 내 탈탄산(decarbonation) 단계를 생략하는 HCF공정의 경우에 고농도의 Ca²⁺ 주입과 처리수내 탄산염으로 인해 HAP을 포함하는 석회계 슬러지가 발생하는데, 이는 산성화된 토양의 개량제(중화제)로 널리 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구를 위해 경기도 I하수처리장 2차침전지 후단에 구축된 처리용량 27.1 - 135.6 m³/day HCF pilot plant의 전처리 조건은 pH 10.0 - 11.0, Ca²⁺ 농도 80 mg/L이었다. 결정여과조는 선속도 1.0 - 5.0 m/hr, 상향류로 운전되며, 여재는 2.0 - 3.0 mm의 석회석 모래를 충전하였다. 역세척은 중앙에 Air lifting pipe를 설치하여 역세척수가 처리수와 분리배출되도록 설계하였고, 침전시켜 역세척 슬러지를 회수하였다. 처리수의 평균 T-P, PO₄-P 및 SS는 각각 0.05, 0.04, 1.1 mg/L으로 모든 항목에서 방류수 수질기준 이하로 안정적으로 유출되었다. 회수된 HCF 슬러지는 SEM-EDX, XRD, FT-IR을 활용하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. SEM-EDX로 분석된 슬러지의 원자분율은 CaCO₃ 또는 HAP으로 추측되었다. 또한, XRD spectrum 분석결과, 슬러지의 주요 구성성분은 calcite, HAP, phosphoric acid(H₃PO₄) 및 brusite로 나타났다. FT-IR 분석결과, 슬러지는 대부분 인산염 및 탄산염의 무기물로 구성되어 있으며, 유입수의 인 농도가 높을수록 슬러지 내 HAP의 함량이 calcite보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. 고농도의 Ca²⁺을 주입하여 탈탄산단계를 생략한 HCF의 부산슬러지는 HAP 이외에도 CaCO₃와 칼슘-인 화합물로 구성되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 하수 인 고도처리를 위한 HCF공정의 하수처리시설 인 고도처리 적용이 검증되었으며, 부산슬러지를 산성화된 토양의 개량제(중화제) 또는 비료로서의 재활용 및 자원화 가능성이 시사되었다.
