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.

본 연구에서는 산기량의 변화에 따른 임계 투과유속을 투과유속단법으로 측정하였다. 유효 막 면적이 $85cm^2$이고 공칭 세공크기가 $0.4{\mu}m$인 중공사형 막모듈을 MLSS 5,000 mg/L인 활성슬러지 수용액에 침지시켜 투과 실험하였다. 산기시키지 않을 경우 임계 투과유속은 $15.2L/m^2{\cdot}h$로 측정되었으나 산기량을 100에서 1,000 mL/min까지 증가시키면 임계 투과 유속이 20.6에서 $32.5L/m^2{\cdot}h$까지 크게 상승하였다.

As water quality regulations have tightened, many studies to improve wastewater treatment efficiency have been performed. In this study, magnetite powder was used to maintain a high concentration of MLSS in lab-scale wastewater treatment system. After magnetite powder injection, MLSS concentration was above 8,000 mg/L and it was 3.2 times higher than control group(2,500 mg/L). In addition, nitrogen removal efficiency and phosphorus removal efficiency comparing with the control group was increased 20.5% and 11%, respectively.

Several disposal processes for waste sludge from wastewater treatment plants such as landfill, ocean dump, incineration, reuse as fuels or fertilizers are practiced. However, ocean dumping is prohibited by international treat. New constructions of landfill sites or incineration facilities are limited by NIMBY and reuse processes are still suffering from low energy yield. Therefore, development of alternative processes for sludge disposal are currently needed. In this study, alternative technique for sludge solubilization using HVI (high voltage impulse) was suggested and verified experimentally. Sludge solubilization was carried out for 90 minutes using HVI discharge with peak voltage of 16 kV and pulse duration for 40 microsecond. About 3~9 % of MLSS and MLVSS concentration were reduced, but the soluble COD, TN, TP of the sludge increased to 372 %, 56 % and 102 % respectively. It indicates that the flocs and/or cells of the sludge were damaged by HVI. These resulted in flocs-disintegration and cells-lysis, which means the internal matters were bursted out of the flocs as well as the cells. Thus, electrical conductivity in bulk solution was increased. All of the results verified that the HVI could be used as an alternative technique for sludge solubilization processes.

A bench-scale anoxic membrane bioreactor (MBR) system, consisting of a bioreactor coupled to a ceramic crossflow ultrafiltration module, was evaluated to treat a synthetic wastewater containing alkaline hydrolysis byproducts (hydrolysates) of RDX, The wastewater was formulated the same as RDX hydrolysates, and consisted of acetate, formate, formaldehyde as carbon sources and nitrite, nitrate as electron accepters. The MBR system removed 80 to 90% of these carbon sources, and approximately 90% of the stoichiometric amount of nitrate, 60% of nitrite. The reactor was also operated over a range of transmembrane pressures, temperatures, suspended solids concentration, and organic loading rate in order to maximize treatment efficiency and permeate flux. Increasing transmembrane pressure and temperature did not improve membrane flux significantly. Increasing biomass concentration in the bioreactor decreased the permeate flux significantly. The maximum volumetric organic loading rate was $0.72kg\;COD/m^3/day$, and the maximum F/M ratio was 0.50 kg N/kg MLSS/day and 1.82 kg COD/kg MLSS/day. Membrane permeate was clear and essentially free of bacteria, as indicated by heterotrophic plate count. Permeate flux ranged between 0.15 and $2.0m^3/m^2/day$ and was maintained by routine backwashing every 3 to 4 day. Backwashing with 2% NaOCl solution every fourth or fifth backwashing cycle was able to restore membrane flux to its original value.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of different Hydraulic Retention Times (HRTs) on the contaminant removal efficiency using Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS). A laboratory-scale experiment was performed using a sequencing batch reactor, and the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), nitrogen, orthophosphate removal efficiency, AGS/MLSS ratio, and precipitability in accordance with the HRT were evaluated. As a result, the COD removal efficiency was not significantly different with the reduction in HRT, and at a HRT of 6 h, the removal rate was slightly increased owing to the increase in organic loading rate. The nitrogen removal efficiency was improved by injection of influent division at a HRT of 6 h. As the HRT decreased, the MLSS and AGS tended to increase, and the sludge volume index finally decreased to 50 mL/g. In addition, the size of the AGS gradually increased to about 1.0 mm. Therefore, the control of HRT provides favorable conditions for the stable formation of AGS, and is expected to improve the contaminant removal efficiency with the selection of a proper operation strategy.

생물학적 고도처리는 혐기, 무산소, 호기의 조건을 반복하거나 재배열함으로서 이루어지는데 이때 혐기조와 무산소조에서는 유기산이 발생한다. 여기서 발생한 유기산은 질소와 인의 제거와 슬러지침강성에 중요한 인자로 작용한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 하 폐수 고도처리 시 F/M비 변화에 따른 유기산의 발생정도와 잔류농도 변화와 기에 따른 유기물과 질소의 제거 특성과 처리효율 및 슬러지 침강성과의 관계를 모색하기 위해 특성을 검토 하였다. 고도처리를 위해 $A^2/O$ 공정을 사용하였고 MLSS의 농도의 변화로 F/M비를 조절하였다. F/M비를 $0.16{\sim}0.08$ kg-BOD/kg-MLSS/day로 변화 시켰을 때 F/M비에 감소에 따라 회분식 반응기에 의한 유기산의 생성량의 증가하였고 잔류 유기산 농도는 감소하였다가 증가하였다. F/M비가 $0.16kg/kg{\cdot}d$ 실험 조건에서 SVI와 SS는 높게 나타났으며 F/M비가 $0.11{\sim}0.13kg/kg{\cdot}d$로 높아짐에 따라 감소하여 양호한 상태를 보이다 F/M비가 증가함에 SVI와 SS도 지속적으로 증가하여 $0.08kg/kg{\cdot}d$에서 높은 SVI와 SS 농도를 나타내었다. 무산소조의 유기산 잔류 농도 그리고 탈질률을 비교한 결과 무산소조의 유기산 잔류량이 적을수록 탈질률은 증가하였다. 슬러지 침강성과 질소 제거효율을 고려한 최적의 유기산 잔류 농도는 $1.4{\sim}2.2$ mg/L이며 이때의 F/M비는 $0.11{\sim}0.13$ kg-BOD/kg-MLSS/day범위로 나타났다.

본 연구는 실제 운영되는 수산물 가공 산업폐수의 immersed MBR (iMBR)공정을 이용한 폐수처리시설 운영 결과에 대한 실증적 고찰을 수행한 것이다. 수산물 가공 산업의 특성상 일별, 월별 유량 변동이 심하여 유량조정조의 설계 및 운전방법이 중요하며, 유량조정조 교반시 포기식 교반을 적용하면 산발효 방지를 통하여 후속 응집/부상 공정의 약품비 절감이 가능하다. 동 현장은 유량조정조, 가압부상조, iMBR을 거쳐 방류하며, 이때 가압부상조를 거쳐 iMBR로 유입되는 BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, SS, T-N, T-P의 농도는 2,291 mg/L, 530 mg/L, 38 mg/L, 256.8 mg/L, 13.5 mg/L으로 나타났다. 수산물 가공 폐수와 같이 고농도의 염이 함유된 폐수의 생물학적 처리는 슬러지의 침강성과 관계없는 침지식 중공사막을 이용한 iMBR 공법을 적용하는것이 바람직한 것으로 나타났다. iMBR 공정의 주요 에너지 소모 요인인 공기세정에 대한 운영 값의 검토 결과 SADm값이 $0.31m^3/hr{\cdot}m^2$ membrane area이었으며, SADp값은 $26.5m^3/hr{\cdot}m^3$ permeate으로 상용화된 평막 대비 월등히 에너지 효율이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 무산소, 혐기, 호기 탈기조로 구성된 침지식 중공사막이 결합된 iMBR 공정에서 막오염 지표인 Normalized TMP와 온도, MLSS 등을 비교 분석한 결과 F/M비가 0.08~0.10 gBOD/gMLSS에서 임계 F/M 값을 나타냈다. 생물반응조에서의 BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, SS, T-N, T-P의 처리수질은 각각 1.8 mg/L, 11.0 mg/L, 1.1 mg/L, 11.0 mg/L, 0.24 mg/L으로 운전되었으며, 제거율은 99.9%, 97.9%, 96.3%, 95.7%, 97.8%으로 나타났다.

일반적인 활성슬러지 공정은 MLSS 1,500 - 3,000 mg/L 정도인데 MBR 공정은 보통 8,000 mg/L 이상의 농도로 운전할 수 있어, 높은 유기물 제거와 질산화 효율을 증가시킬 수 있다. 따라서 기존의 포기조 용량을 줄일 수 있으며 미생물의 자산화(Auto-Oxidation)가 증가하여 슬러지 발생량(Sludge Production)은 줄어들게 된다.(중략)
