In this study, in order to utilize the waste heat of industrial wastewater in the range of the relatively low temperature of 40～5$0^{\circ}C$ as a heat source, a hybrid heat pump system was considered by computer simulation method. In the simulation, an absorber, desorber and solution heat exchanger were modelled by UA values while a compressor and pump performance were specified by an isentropic efficiency. Simulation results show that the performance of hybrid heat pump can be up to 80% higher than that of conventional R134a heat pump when it makes a process hot water of 9$0^{\circ}C$ while the wastewater is cooled down to 2$0^{\circ}C$. As the absorber pressure increases, the system performance and deserter pressure increase with a favorable effect of a compressor discharge gas temperature drop.

Stability and activity of boron doped diamond (BDD) electrode are key factors for water treatment. In this study, BDD electrodes were prepared on various substrates such as Nb, Si, Ti, and $TiN_x/Ti$ by hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) method. BDD/Ti film showed the delamination between BDD and Ti substrate due to the formation of TiC layer caused by diffusion of carbon. On the other hand, $BDD/TiN_x/Ti$ showed remarkably improved stability, compared to BDD/Ti. It was confirmed that $TiN_x$ intermediate layer act as barrier layer for diffusion of carbon. High potential window of 2.8 eV was maintained on the $BDD/TiN_x/Ti$ electrode and, better wastewater treatment capability and longer electrode working life than BDD/Nb, BDD/Si and BDD/Ti were obtained.

Hot air sparging is a groundwater remediation technique, in which organic contaminants volatilized into hot air from the saturated to vadose zone. In the laboratory diesel (10,000 mg TPH/kg) was spiked in contaminated saturated aquifer soil. The hot air ($34.9{\pm}2.7^{\circ}C$) was injected in intermittent (Q=1,500 mL/min, 10 minute injection and 10 minute idle) modes. We performed microcosm tests using the groundwater samples to assess TPH reductive remediation activity. For Terminal-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis of eubacterial communities in sludge of wastewater treatment plants and soil of experiment site, the 16S rDNA was amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) from the sludge and the soil. The obtained 16S rDNA fragments were digested with Msp I and separated by electrophoresis gel. We found various sequence types for hot air sparging experiment with sludge soil samples that were closely related to Bacillus (149 bp, Firmicutes), Methlobacterium (149 bp, Euryarchaeotes), Pseudomonas (492 bp, ${\gamma}$-Proteobacteria), etc., in the clone library. In this study we find that TPH-water was reduced to 78.9% of the initial value in this experiment aquifer. The results of the present study suggests that T-RFLP method may be applied as a useful tool for the monitoring in the TPH contaminated soil fate of microorganisms in natural microbial community.

염색가공공정은 에너지 다소비형이며, 염색조업을 수행하는 과정에서 약 4$0^{\circ}C$ 정도의 열원폐수를 다량으로 방출하고 있지만 이를 회수할 수 있는 기술개발이 이루어지지 않아서 아직 미활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 열원폐수의 열을 회수하여 이용할 수 있는 방안을 마련하기 위하여 먼저 염색공정의 특성을 고찰하고. 직물별, 공정별 에너지원단위를 조사한 결과 상대적으로 에너지원같위가 높은 T/C, T/R 교직물 업체나 폴리에스테르 염색업체에서 폐수열을 회수하여 이용하기에 적합한 것을 알 수 있다. 그리고 염색업체별, 계절별 폐수의 배출량과 온도를 조사한 결과 각 업체당 평균 폐수배출량은 20,470톤/월이고, 평균폐수온도는 41.$0^{\circ}C$로 나타났다 또한, 배관 침적, 폐쇄 등으로 폐열회수시스템의 안정적 운전이나 열교환기의 성능에 악영향을 끼칠 수 있는 SS의 경우 폴리에스테르 염색폐수가 가장 낮아 폴리에스테르 염색폐수가 폐열회수에 가장 유리할 것으로 판단되었다. 염색공장에서 기존에 사용하고 있는 시스템과 폐수열이용 시스템의 에너지단가를 비교해보면 폐열회수시스템에서 압축식 열펌프를 적용하면 에너지단가는 22.50원이 되어 매우 경제적이며, 증기생산을 위한 보일러 연료로 LNG를 사용하는 업체에 압축식 폐열회수시스템을 적용할 경우가 투자비 회수기간이 2.09년으로 경제성이 매우 우수한 것으로 나타나 열펌프시스템의 적용기술을 보급할 수 있는 기반을 마련하였다.

온천의 온배수는 오래 전부터 전 세계를 통해 지질학, 육수학 및 수생태학에서 온도구배와 담수조류의 관계에서 많은 관심을 갖게 한 분야이었다. 반면에, 우리나라는 인공온천이 전국적으로 개발되었으나 아직까지 이에 대한 연구가 미진한 실정에 있다. 본 연구는 2015년 12월부터 2016년 9월까지 경기도 포천에 위치한 계류(부소천)의 최상류 구간 4개 지점(BSU (상류), HSW (온천폐수 방류구), BSD1~2 (하류))에서 부착조류 생태에 온배수의 시공간적 영향을 파악하고자 매월 조사하였다. 조사기간 동안 온배수의 수온 영향권은 <1.0 km이었고, 동시에 N P 영양염의 주요 공급원으로 작용하였다. 그 영향은 저온 갈수기(12월~3월)에 우세하였고, 고온 풍수기 (7월~9월)에 약세를 보여 다소 계절적인 특성을 반영하였다. 이러한 환경에서 부착조류 군집은 총 59속 143종으로 구성되었다. 이 중에서 규조류가 21속 83종 (58.0%), 남조류가 9속 21종(14.7%) 및 녹조류가 25속 32종(22.4%)을 차지하였다. 또한, 상대도수가 >10%인 분류군은 총 24속 31종이었으며, 시공간적 분포는 수온 ($5^{\circ}C$와 $15^{\circ}C$) 및 유속 ($0.2m\;s^{-1}$와 $0.8m\;s^{-1}$)과 밀접한 관련성을 가졌다. 그리고 연중 높은 수온을 유지하는 기초 환경에서 수중의 $PO_4$에 친화력이 크거나, $NO_3-PO_4$가 풍부한 하천 서식처를 선호하는 분류군이 우점하였다. 결과적으로, 부소천은 온배수에 의해 연중 과영양 및 과열 오염이 지속되어 국내에서 조사된 선행 부착조류 생태연구의 결과와 비교할 때 오염이 심한 상태로 평가되었고, 상 하류 간에 계절적으로 동질성 (하계~추계)과 이질성(동계~춘계)이 반복되는 역동적인 생태계로 볼 수 있었다.

There is a need for waste recycling. This study was carried out to investigate removal efficiency of TCE in water treatment with adsorbent made from coffee grounds which obtained after extraction of coffee through hot water. The removal of TCE in synthetic Waste water using adsorbents was examined varying dose, concentration and temperature on a laboratory scale. The results were as followed 1. As much as 95% TCE remogal was possible with adsorbent made from coffee grounds at an adsorbent dose over 2.5 g/l under the test conditions. 2. The removal rate of TCE was propotional to weight of adsorbent made from coffee grounds (0.025, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5 g). 3. In the effect of temperature, as temperature of wastewater was high, the rate of removal was increased. 4. Iodine number (865 mg/g) of adsorbent made from coffee grounds was not higher than that (1123 mg/g) of adsorbent made from coconut. But, in considering adsorption capacity, Iodine number was inapplicable to adsorbent made from coffee grounds. 5. Generally, Freundlich's equation applies to adsorption in wastewater. In case of TCE, slope (1/n) was 0.83, 1.06 and intercept (k) was 456.18, 405.19 at 150, 300 ppb respectively (average r=0.904, 0.933).

Fecal sterols, nonylphenolic compounds (NPs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were determined in surface water from Masan Bay and its adjacent rivers in February 2005. Concentrations of coporstanol (Cop), an indicator of fecal pollution, in surface water ranged from <10 to 13,853 ng/L, and concentrations of nonylphenol, the most toxic of the NPs, ranged from 10.2 to 481 ng/L, and concentrations of PAHs ranged from 8.61 to 223 ng/L. The concentrations of the compounds measured in this study were lower than or comparable to those at other locations in Korea and other countries. The contamination of Cop and PAHs in surface water was associated with the discharge from rivers passing through cities and/or industrial complexes. The NP contamination was associated with wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents through outfalls as well as riverine discharge. Compared to ecotoxicological values, the concentrations of NPs from rivers, the mouths of rivers, and WWTP outfall areas exceeded guidelines, suggesting that hot spot areas may pose a potential risk to sensitive species.

The overall performance of BNR-MBR, so-called Anoxic-Anaerobic-Aerobic Membrane Bioreactor ($A^3$-MBR), developed for nutrient removal was studied to determine the efficiencies and mechanisms under different solid retention time (SRT). The reactor was fed by synthetic high-rise building wastewater with a COD:N:P ratio of 100:10:2.5. The results showed that TKN, TN and phosphorus removal by the system was higher than 95%, 93% and 80%, respectively. Nitrogen removal in the system was related to the simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND) reaction which removed all nitrogen forms in aerobic condition. SND reaction in the system occurred because of the large floc size formation. Phosphorus removal in the system related to the high phosphorus content in bacterial cells and the little effects of nitrate nitrogen on phosphorus release in the anaerobic condition. Therefore, high quality of treated effluent could be achieved with the $A^3$-MBR system for various water reuse purposes.

For several decades, industrial processes consume a huge amount of raw water for various objects that consequently results in the generation of large amounts of wastewater. Wastewaters are consisting of complex mixture of different inorganic and organic compounds and some of them can be toxic, hazardous and hard to degrade. These effluents are mainly treated by conventional technologies such are aerobic and anaerobic treatment and chemical coagulation. But, these processes are not suitable for eliminating all hazardous chemical compounds form wastewater and generate a large amount of toxic sludge. Therefore, other processes have been studied and applied together with these techniques to enhance purification results. These include photocatalysis, absorption, advanced oxidation processes, and ozonation, but also have their own drawbacks. In recent years, electrochemical techniques have received attention as wastewater treatment process that could be show higher purification results. Among them, boron doped diamond (BDD) attract attention as electrochemical electrode due to good chemical and electrochemical stability, long lifetime and wide potential window that necessary properties for anode electrode. So, there are many researches about high quality BDD on Nb, Ta, W and Si substrates, but, their application in effluents treatment is not suitable due to high cost of metal and low conductivity of Si. To solve these problems, Ti has been candidate as substrate in consideration of cost and property. But there are adhesion issues that must be overcome to apply Ti as BDD substrate. Al, Cu, Ti and Nb thin films were deposited on Ti substrate to improve adhesion between substrate and BDD thin film. In this paper, BDD films were deposited by hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HF-CVD) method. Prior to deposition, cleaning processes were conducted in acetone, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) using sonification machine for 7 min, respectively. And metal layer with the thickness of 200 nm were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering (DCMS). To analyze microstructure X-ray diffraction (XRD, Bruker gads) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM, Hitachi) were used. It is confirmed that metal layer was effective to adhesion property and improved electrode property. Electrochemical measurements were carried out in a three electrode electrochemical cell containing a 0.5 % H2SO4 in deionized water. As a result, it is confirmed that metal inter layer heavily effect on BDD property by improving adhesion property due to suppressing formation of titanium carbide.
