혐기소화에 의한 메탄생산은 유기물이 가수분해, 산생성 단계를 거쳐 아세트산생성균과 메탄생성균 간의 영양공생 (syntrophy)에 의해 일어난다. 본 연구에서는 종간 영양공생 기작인 종간직접전자전달 (DIET, Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer) 과정을 촉진시키기 위하여 전도체인 마그네타이트 (Fe₃O₄) 첨가가 음폐수의 메탄생산에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위해, 본 연구에서는 회분식 혐기반응기를 이용하여 마그네타이트 투입량에 따른 음폐수의 메탄퍼텐셜 (B_u)과 최대메탄생산속도 [R_m(t₀)]를 분석하였다. 마그네타이트 무처리구의 메탄퍼텐셜은 0.496 Nm³/kg-VS_added이었으며, 21.06일에 38.24 mL/day의 최대메탄생산속도를 보였다. 마그네타이트 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 70, 100mM 처리구의 메탄퍼텐셜은 각각 0.502, 0.498, 0.512, 0.510, 0.518, 0.523, 0.524, 0.540, 0.549 Nm³/kg-VS_added이었으며, 마그네타이트 투입량 증가에 따라 유의성 있는 메탄퍼텐셜의 증가 경향을 보였다. 최대메탄생산속도는 무처리구와 비교하여 마그네타이트 처리구에서 증가하였으며 15mM 처리구에서 36.95%까지 증가하였다. 또한, 마그네타이트 투입농도가 증가함에 따라 최대메탄생산속도에 도달하는 기간(t₀)은 무처리 21.06일에서 마그네타이트 100mM 처리 14.67일로 크게 단축되었다. 따라서, 마그네타이트 투입에 따른 음폐수의 메탄퍼텐셜과 최대메탄생산속도가 크게 향상되었다.

Membrane process has been applied widely to petroleum chemistry, fine chemistry, polymer, electronics, food, bioprocessing, and wastewater treatment process. Membrane process has advantage that there's no phase change through separation, energy consumption is smaller than other separation processes. And equipment investment and operation cost are inxpensive too. We prepared the silicone rubber membrane and then separated the heavy metal ion from wastewater. Silicone rubber membrane was prepared using a superitical fluid process and heavy metal ions were separated from the chromium nitrate, ferric sulfate, cupric sulfate, nickel sulfate aqueous solution. The pressure difference between top and bottom of separation apparatus was preserved by vacuum pump, and the removal amount of heavy metal at each separation step were analyzed by instrumental analysis, AAS. The surface and pore of silicone rubber membrane was investigated using SEM, and the capability of wastewater treatment using a silicone rubber membrane was proposed as calculated removal rate of heavy metal after comparing removal amount of heavy metal to amount of heavy metal in mother solution by AAS analysis.

The surroundings of livestock farms, including dairy farms, are known to be a major source of development and transmission of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. To control antibioticresistant bacteria in the livestock breeding environment, farms have installed livestock wastewater treatment facilities to treat wastewater before discharging the final effluent in nearby rivers or streams. These facilities have been known to serve as hotspots for inter-bacterial antibiotic-resistance gene transfer and extensively antibiotic-resistant bacteria, owing to the accumulation of various antibiotic-resistant bacteria from the livestock breeding environment. This review discusses antibiotic usage in livestock farming, including dairy farms, livestock wastewater treatment plants as hotspots for antibiotic resistant bacteria, and nonenteric gram-negative bacteria from wastewater treatment plants, and previous findings in literature.

The authors examined the effects of operating parameters on the $H_2$ production by dark fermentation of the wastewater generated from food waste recycling facilities, in short "food waste wastewater (FWW)". Central composite design based response surface methodology was applied to analyze the effect of initial pH (5.5-8.5) and substrate concentration (2-20 g Carbo. COD/L) on $H_2$ production. The experiment was conducted under mesophilic ($35^{\circ}C$) condition and a heat-treated ($90^{\circ}C$ for 20min)anaerobic digester sludge was used as a seeding source. Although there was a little difference in carbohydrate removal, $H_2$ yield was largely affected by the experimental conditions, from 0.38 to 1.77 mol $H_2$/mol $hexose_{added}$. By applying regression analysis, $H_2$ yield was well fitted based on the coded value to a second order polynomial equation (p = 0.0243): Y = $1.78-0.17X_1+0.30X_2+0.37X_1X_2-0.29X_1{^2}-0.35X_2{^2}$, where $X_1$, $X_2$, and Y are pH, substrate concentration (g Carbo. COD/L), and hydrogen yield (mol $H_2$/mol $hexose_{added}$), respectively. The 2-D response surface clearly showed a high inter-dependency between initial pH and substrate concentration, and the role of these two factors was to control the pH during fermentation. According to the statistical optimization, the optimum condition of initial pH and substrate concentration were 7.0 and 13.4 g Carbo. COD/L, respectively, under which predicted $H_2$ yield was 1.84 mol $H_2$/mol $hexose_{added}$. Microbial analysis using 16S rRNA PCR-DGGE showed that $Clostridium$ sp. such as $Clostridium$ $perfringens$, $Clostridium$ $sticklandii$, and $Clostridium$ $bifermentans$ were main $H_2$-producers.

From 1998 to 2008, the bacteriological quality of seawater in Kamak Bay, Korea, was monitored. The total and fecal coliforms in seawater were monitored as bacterial indicators, and the level of fecal coliform contamination was used to evaluate seawater quality. In the southern shellfish growing area of Kamak Bay, the observed fecal coliform geometric mean (GM) and estimated 90th percentile did not exceed the quality standards for fecal coliforms in seawater in Korea and th USA (GM<14 MPN/100 mL, 90th percentile<43 MPN/100 mL). The GM and estimated 90th percentile of the fecal coliform levels in the adjacent northern area of Kamak Bay were higher than in the southern area. Stations near wastewater discharge sites and urban areas in the north had the lowest quality and did not meet the bacteriological seawater quality criteria. The high fecal coliform levels in the Seonso coastal region near wastewater discharges and northern urban areas declined significantly following dredging and operation of a sewage treatment plant.

탄소원으로 자당을 공급한 합성폐수에 비해 상대적으로 발생수소량은 (7.56 mg $H_2/g$ COD) 적었지만 음식물쓰레기를 기질로 이용한 혐기적 발효공정에서 발생된 가스는 3.47 mg $H_2/g$ COD의 수소생성율을 나타내었다. 자당 합성폐수와 음식물쓰레기의 경우, 각각 8.01, 3.73의 B/A비를 보였으며 수소생성이 많은 경우 주요 유기산 중 Butyric acid가 많이 검출되었다. 동정분석 결과 주요 미생물 군집은 Escherichia 속, Klebsiella 속, Clostridium 속, Bacterium 속, 그리고 Enterobacter 속으로 분석되었다. Clostridium 속은 자당 합성폐수와 음식물 쓰레기 모두에서 관찰되었고 Klebsiella 속은 음식물 쓰레기의 발효과정에서 더욱 활발한 것으로 나타났다. 미생물의 분류학적 관계를 확인한 결과로 60%가 ${\gamma}-proteobacteria$이였으며 Firmicute와 Bacteria가 각각 20%를 차지하였다.

The aim of this research is to derive an optimum operating condition for the thermal solubilization equipment that is employed to increase concentration of soluble organic materials and to assess whether it would be possible to use the waste sludge generated by thermal solubilization reaction as an external carbon source in biological denitrification process. For the purpose, we have constituted a laboratory-size thermal solubilization equipment and have assessed thermal hydrolysis efficiency based on various reaction temperature and reaction time. We have also derived SDNR using the waste sludge generated by thermal solubilization reaction through a batch experiment. As a result of research, the highest thermal hydrolysis efficiency of about 42.8% was achieved at $190^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and at 90 minutes of reaction time. And when SDNR was derived using the waste sludge, the value obtained was $0.080{\sim}0.094\;g\;NO_3{^-}-N/g\;MLVSS{\cdot}day$, showing SDNR that is higher than that obtained by the results of existing researches that used common wastewater as an external carbon source. Accordingly, in view of the fact that food wastes vary quite a bit in characteristics based on the area they are generated from and seasonal change, it seems that a flexible operation of thermal solubilization equipment is required through on-going monitoring of food wastes that are imported to food wastes recycling facilities.

In this study, we researched the characteristics of $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ emission of the wastewater treatment (WWT) process in the dairy industry. For flux measurements at the air-water interface, a floating dynamic flow-through chamber was used above the water surface. $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ concentration from the WWT process was measured by NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) Analyser. In the study, $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ fluxes results showed a distinct difference for each WWT process. 60% of the GHG emissions which was the highest percentage were from the equalization tank. Reactor tank was second with 27% of the total emissions from the WWT. Aeration tank was third with 12% of the total emissions. The tendency was that the more the wastewater was treated, the less GHGs were emitted. $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ showed the same tendency. This indicates that the concentrations and properties of wastewater could affect the tendency.
