Air-drived rotating biological contactor (RBC) system, which is effective method in filtering performance, was tested for the nitrification capacity in a recirculating system. At ammonia concentrations between 0.029 and 0.528 mg/l, the effect of ammonia loading rate on ammonia removal rate at three different hydraulic loading rates could be defined by the following first­order regression models: Hydraulic loading rate of $14.8 m^3/m^3/day:\;y=39.2\times+3.4 (r^2=0.9137)$, Hydraulic loading rate of $26.5 m^3/m^3/day: y=53.3\times+4.0 (r^2=0.8686)$, Hydraulic loading rate of $37.3 m^3/m^3/day: y=58.4\times+4.2 (r^2=0.7755)$, where, $\times$ is ammonia loading rate (mg/l), y is ammonia removal rate $(g/m^3/day)$, The equations showed the optimal ammonia removal rate at the hydraulic loading rate of $26.5m^3/m^3/day$. Below the ammonia concentration of 2.72 mg/l, first-order regression models between ammonia loading rate and ammonia removal rate at three different rates of speed are defined as follows: Rotational speed of $0.75 rpm: y=28.5\times+4.7 (r^2=0.9143)$, Rotational speed of $1.0 rpm: y=33.6\times+8.4 (r^2=0.9534)$, Rotational speed of $2.0 rpm: y=28.9\times+3.6 (r^2=0.9488)$, where, x is ammonia loading rate (mg/l), y is ammonia removal rate $(g/m^3day)$. The equations show the ammonia removal rate at the rotational speed of 1.0 rpm is significantly higher than that at the rotational speed of either 0.75 rpm or 2.0 rpm (P<0.05).

The objective of this study was to examine and compare to transient response to quantitative and hydraulic shocks which produce equal changes in mass rate of organic feed in aerobic fixed-film process. The general experimental approach was to operate the system at several growth rates under steady-state(pre-shock) conditions, then to apply step changes during day 3 in dilution rate(hydraulic shock) , or feed concentration(Quantitative shock) at the same organic mass loading rate. Performance was assessed in both the transient state and the new steady-state (post- shock). Shock load of different type did not produced equivalent disruptions of effluent quality for equal increases in mass loading rate. Based on effluent concentrations, a hydraulic and a Quantitative shock at the same mass loading caused equal increase in total effluent COD, but the increase was primarily a result of suspended solids the hydraulic shock and COD in the quantitative shock. The time which effluent COD came to peak values were about 32~48 hours at the low organic loads and 52 ~ 72 hours at the high organic loads, respectively A quantitative shock produced a much greater increase in effluent COD than did a hydraulic shock at the same mass loading. Mean and peak values of effluent concentration weve increased in 2.8~4.2 times at low organic loading rate, 5.2~6.6 times at the high organic loading rate, respectively. Key words : Aerobic fixed-film reactor, Quantitative shock, hydraulic shock, mass loading rate.

회전원판공정(rotating biological contactorRBC)과 화학적 처리공정을 결합한 처리시스템을 이용하여 도시하수내 포함된 유기물과 영양염류를 제거할 경우에 수리학적 부하 (hydraulic loading)와 처리수 반송율 (recirculation rate)의 시스템 처리효율에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 각각의 수리학적 부하 0.031, 0.0535 및 0.076 $m^3/m^2/d에서 반송율을 100%, 200%, 300%로 변화시켰고, 질산화에 필요한 알카리도의 보충 및 화학적 처리를 위하여 lime(CaCO$_3$)을 가하여 유입수의 pH를 10.4-11.0으로 유지시켰다. 실험결과 수리학적 부하 0.0535 $m^3/m^2/d에서 BOD, COD의 제거효율이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 질산화 효율 및 질소 제거효율에서는 수리학작 부하 0.035 $m^3/m^2/d, 반송율 300%에서 가장 높았으며, 반송율별에서는 수리학적 부하를 고려할 때 300% 반송하는 것이 가장 높은 유기물 제거효율을 보였다. 반송율과 수리학적 부하를 증가시킬 경우에 발생되는 슬러지내 유기물 함량은 점점 증가하였고, 수리학적 부하 0.076 $m^3/m^2/d, 반송율 300%일 경우에는 유기물 함량이 47%로 매우 높았다. 이는 부하증가에 따른 미생물 성장의 증가와 더불어 수리학적 부하 증가에 따른 전단력의 증가가 영향을 미쳤기 때문이다. 인을 제거하기 위하여 pH를 10.4-11.0으로 유지시킨 경우에 인을 90%이상 제거할 수 있었으며, 유출수내 평균 SS농도는 40 mg/l를 상회하였다.

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficiency of nitrification based on ammonia loading rates and hydraulic air-loading rates in a moving bed bioreactor (MBBR) under seawater conditions. The goal was to provide foundational data for the design of these bio reactors. At an ammonia loading rate of 0.2 g TAN·m^-2 surface area·day^-1, the influent TAN concentration was determined to be 1.76±0.33 mg·L^-1, which is below the safe concentration for fish survival (2 mg·L^-1). Considering operational aspects, the optimal ammonia-loading rate was derived. Subsequently, experimental results for nitrification efficiency at the optimal ammonia-loading rate revealed that the optimum hydraulic air-loading rate was 1.8 L·air·m^-2 surface area·min^-1. This condition resulted in the lowest concentrations of TAN and NO₂-N in the influent water, thus establishing the optimal hydraulic air-loading rate. A regression equation was derived for the ammonia-removal rate (Y) based on the ammonia-loading rate (x) and expressed as a 0.5-order equation (Y=ax^0.5+b). Specifically, for TAN concentrations of 0-6 mg·L-1, the regression equation Y=0.1683x^0.5-0.13628, was established.

이 연구는 값싸고 높은 비 표면적을 제공할 수 있는 발포스티로폼 입자를 packed column 에어레이터의 산소전달 매질로 이용 가능성을 알기 위하여 매질의 깊이와 수리학적부하량에 따른 산소 전달 특성과 효율을 조사 하였다. 이용된 발포스티로폼 입자는 직경 2.5 mm의 구형이었으며, 비표면적이 1350 $m^2$/$m^3$으로 일반적으로 이용되는 매질에 비해 약 3.7~7.0배 더 넓은 비표면적을 제공할 수 있다. 이 매질을 직경 10 cm, 높이 1 m의 내부 관찰이 용이한 아크릴 관으로 제작한 packed column 에어 레이터에 0, 4.5, 9그리고 18 cm의 매질을 채워 넣고, 수온 20, 25 및 3$0^{\circ}C$에 대해 수리학적 부하량을 2, 4 및 5.6 $m^3$/$m^2$/min로 각각 달리하여 산소전달특성을 실험한 결과(Exp. 1),모든 실험 수온에서 수리학적 부하량이 증가함에 따라 표준산소전달률이 증가하였으나 매질의 깊이는 9 cm 까지는 증가하다가 18 cm에서는 감소하였다. 표준산소전달률은 매질 깊이 9 cm에서 수리학적 부하량이 5.6 $m^3$/$m^2$/min일 때 가장 높았다. 그러나 수리학적 부하량이 증가함에 따라 펌프의 소모 전력이 증가하여, 단위소모 전력당 표준에어레이션 효율은 매질의 깊이 9 cm에서 수리학적부하량 2 $m^3$/$m^2$/min일 때 가장 높았다. 따라서 모든 수리학적 부하량에서 매질의 깊이 9 cm 일 때 표준산소전달률과 표준에어레이션 효율이 가장 좋았다. 이 매질을 직경 20 cm, 높이 2 m의 PVC관으로 제작한 packed column 에어레이터에 깊이를 0, 9, 18, 27 및 36 cm로 넣고 순환여과식 시설 내에 실험실 규모의 적용실험을 통해 에어레이터의 효율을 조사하였는데 (Exp.2), 실험 수온 27$^{\circ}C$에서, Exp. 1에서와 동일한 3개의 수리학적 부하량에서 산소 전달률을 측정한 결과, Exp. 1에서와 같이 수리학적 부하량과 매질의 깊이의 증가에 따라 산소 전달률이 증가하였으며, 매질의 깊이가 가장 깊은 36 cm에 대해, 수리학적 부하량이 2 $m^3$/$m^2$/min 일때, 2 kg 02 kg $O_2$/kW-hr의 가장 높은 표준에어레이션효율을 나타내었다. 위의 두 실험 결과에 따라 packed column 에어레이터에서 발포스티로폼 입자를 산소전달 매질로 이용하여 산소 전달률을 증가시킬 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

A study on the effects of volumetric loading rate, surface loading rate and hydraulic. retention time (HRT) for the anaerobic treatment was conducted with the anaerobic fixed-film process using synthetic wastewater at lower temperature than that of conventional anaerobic treatment. The results are as follows 1. Alkalinity and pH value decreased as the hydraulic retention time increased 2. Increase of the volumetric lodaing rate led to increasl of effluent COD concentration and decrease of COD removal efficiency. 3. The removed volumetric loading rate increased linearly according to the increase of the volumrtric loading rate. 4. Similarly, the linear increase of the removed surface loading rate was noticed with an increase of the surface loading rate.

라이닝 작용수압과 유입량은 지하수 수위 아래 혹은 하 해저터널 설계시 중요하게 고려되어야할 수리요소이다. 이 요소들은 수심, 심도, 수리경계조건의 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 각 설계요소가 라이닝하중과 유입량에 미치는 영향을 수치해석적 도구를 이용하여 살펴보았다. 수심영향해석은 심도 30 m에 건설된 마제형 터널에 대하여 수심과 라이닝/지반 상대투수계수 비를 다양하게 변화시켜 조사하였고, 심도영향 해석은 수심 60 m의 터널에 대하여 심도 및 라이닝/지반 상대투수계수 비를 변화시켜 해석하였다. 해석결과 수리경계조건과 상관없이 수심 및 심도가 증가함에 따라 지반하중이 증가하였다. 이는 배수터널은 침투력의 영향으로, 비배수 터널은 정수압의 영향으로 수두가 증가함에 따라 지반하중이 증가함을 보여준 것이다. 수심, 심도의 증가에 따라 유입량은 선형적으로 증가하였으며, 라이닝/지반 상대투수계수비와 유입량관계는 펼쳐진 S자 곡선(stretched S-curve)형태로 나타남을 확인하였다.

Many small scale Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) are currently being constructed at many rural areas. The STPs in rural area suffer from low concentration and large inflow quantity fluctuation during wet weather mainly due to illicit combined sewer system. Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) is a process effectively coping with these obstacles. The main objective of this study was to evaluate SBR with high hydraulic loading and low inflow concentration. The operating conditions tested were: organic loading rate = $0.17-0.42KgBOD/m^3/d$, hydraulic loadings = $12.1-61.5m^3/m^2/d$, average MLSS concentration = 2500 mg/L, F/M ratio = 0.026-0.17 KgBOD/Kg MLSS, HRT = 9-12 hr HRT, and SRT = 5.6-33.6 days. Organic loading rate on SBR did not impact significantly on BOD and SS removal efficiencies. To increase treatment efficiencies, low hydraulic loading rate with low concentration was required. The results suggested that low influent concentration with high inflow rates during wet weather requires extended time for settling.

Stability of reactor and effect on biofilm characteristics were investigated by varying the hydraulic residence time in an inverse fluidized bed biofilm reactor(IFBBR). The SCOD removal efficiency was maintained above 90 % in the HRT range of 12hr to 2hr, but the TCOD removal efficiency was dropped down to 50% because of biomass detachment from overgrown bioparticles. The reactor was stably operated up to the conditions of HRT of 2hr and F/M ratio of 4.5kgCOD/$m^3$/day, but above the range there was an abrupt increase of filamentous microorganisms. The optimum biofilm thickness and the biofilm dry density in this experiment were shown as $200\mu\textrm{m}$ and $0.08 g/cm^3$, respectively. The substrate removal rate of this system was found as 1st order because the biofilm was maintained slightly thin by the increased hydraulic loading rate.

Submerged filter process was used to evaluate the nitrifying efficiency of ammonia in the recycling water of marine aquatic culture system. The ammonia removal efficiency was achieved as high as $99\%$ at the hydraulic surface loading rate of up to $4.3{\ell}/m^2-day$. And the nitrite accumulation did not occur in the reactor even when the hydraulic surface loading rate of up to $36.8{\ell}/m^2day$ was applied. In the present study, the relationship between the effluent ammonia concentration and ammonia surface loading rate was formulated as an equation. The attachment rate of biofilm on the filter media at the ammonia surface loading rate of 62.3 and $311.7mg/m^2day$ was 15 and $55mg/m^2-day$, respectively, showing the linear relationship between the attachment rate and ammonia loading rates. Biofilm thickness and density of the filter media were found to be the function of the ammonia loading rate.
