전세계적으로 2000년대 이후로 남조류에 의한 녹조의 발생이 증가하고 있으며, 이와 관련된 환경 문제가 공중건강을 위협하고 인간 활동을 제한하고 있다. 1970년대 캐나다의 호수를 중심으로 수행된 다년간의 현장 연구를 통하여, 녹조발생의 핵심적인 영양 제한인자로 인이 제시되었고, 인 저감에 대한 수계 관리가 진행되었다. 그러나 2000년대 이후, 대형 담수수계에서 특히 Microcystis에 의한 녹조 현상에서는 인뿐만 아니라 질소가 남조류 녹조 발생에 미치는 영향이 부각되고 있다. 한국의 담수 수계에서도 이와 비슷한 남조류에 의한 위해성 녹조 번성 특징을 갖고 있으므로, 이러한 패러다임의 변화는 국내 담수수계의 영양염류 관리에서 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 최근 국제적인 관련 연구를 통하여, 위해성 남조류 번성을 막기 위해 제안된 방법은 다음과 같다. 1) 질소와 인을 함께 관리하는 전략, 2) 폐수의 수집 및 처리, 3) 호소 유입수의 사전처리, 4) 저니의 준설, 5) 체류시간의 단축, 6) 조류의 효율적 회수법, 7) 조류의 침강 및 응집 등이 제시되고 있다. 추가적으로 남조류의 생태학적 특성에 기반한 지속가능하고 통합적인 담수수계의 녹조 관리기법이 수립되어야 한다. 녹조를 유발하는 남조류는 척결되어야 할 생물체가 아니라, 담수 수계에 필수적인 미생물 구성원이기 때문이다.

Chemical composition and nutritive values of napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum.) silages subjected to two cutting intervals were studies; 1st harvest in July (A), and 2nd (B) and 1st (C) harvests in November. Each forage was ensiled with 4% molasses in plastic bags and stored for 5 or 9 months. A feeding experiment with castrated goats was conducted from April to June of the following year. Dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) content of the harvests varied from 9.5 to 22.8% and 6.6 to 13.6% of DM, respectively. The dry matter content of the silages fed to the goats were 13.0 to 24.4%, because some effluent was removed from each silage before the feeding trial. The pH values of the silages were between 4.03 and 4.29. Goats were given sufficient silage to meet maintenance nitrogen requirements from napier grass silage. Silage C was not completely consumed, and the silage had low digestibilities of DM, CP, hemicellulose and cellulose. Nitrogen balance was slightly positive for goats consuming silage B and was negative for goats consuming silages A and C. Nitrogen utilization was discussed in terms of ruminal $NH_3-N$ and volatile fatty acid concentration in the rumen fluids. It is concluded that goats could not maintain N-equilibrium not only when a younger forage was consumed at a level of N requirement by a restricted feeding, but also when an older forage could not be consumed enough for N requirement because of feed intake limitation.

[ ${\beta}-1,3-Glucan$ ] (curdlan) is a water-insoluble polysaccharide composed exclusively of ${\beta}-1,3\;linked$ glucose residues. Extracellular curdlan was mostly synthesized by Agrobacterium species and Alcaligenes faecalis under nitrogen-limiting conditions. In this study, we screened the microorganisms capable of producing extracellular curdlan from soil samples. For the first time, we reported Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus sp. SNC 107 capable of producing extracellular curdlan in appreciable amounts. The effect of different carbon sources on curdlan production was studied and found that the yield of curdlan was more when glucose was used as carbon source. It was also found that maximum production was achieved when the initial concentration of ammonium and phosphate in the medium was 0.5 and 1.9 g/L respectively. In this study the curdlan production was increased from 3 to 7g/L in shake flask cultures.

Oxygen is a key substrate in animal cell metabolism and its consumption is thus a parameter of great interest for monitoring and control in animal cell culture bioreactor. The use of a gas-permeable membrane offered the possibility to provide the required quantity of oxygen into the culture. while avoiding problems of foaming or shear damage generally linked to sparging. For determining the optimum DO control strategy of this gas-permeable membrane aeration bioreactor, the oxygen transfer rate coefficient was measured with varying $N_2$ ratio in inlet air. The results showed that an increasing mass flow rate of nitrogen reduced the $K_La$ value. and 5% nitrogen in air did not result in any oxygen limitation.

This study was conducted to develop a new RBC process available for the effective removal of organic matters and nitrogen in sewage. The RBC process for the oxidation organic compounds and nitrification was designed to occur at the 1st-stage and next-stage RBC respectively. Then nitrified water was recycled to the denitrifying RBC located at the lower part of the 1st-stage RBC. Some results were summarized as follows. 1. The loading limitation was represented as $60g{\cdot}COD/gm^2/day$ in experiment of simultaneous removal of organic matter and nitrogen. The maxmum COD % removal was 85% at the load $35g{\cdot}COD/m^2/day$. 2. The $NO_3-N$ % removal was approximately 80% at the load $60g{\cdot}COD/m^2/day$ and the maximum $NO_3-N$ remaval rate was $3.9g{\cdot}COD/m^2/day$ and the overall C/N ratio of 11.0 as required to achive 80% of $NO_3-N$% removal. 3.$NO_3-N$ removal rate was rapidly decreased above the load $7g{\cdot}NH_4{^+}-N/m^2/day$ and the maximum $NO_3-N$ removal rate was $3.7g{\cdot}NO_3-N/m^2/day$. 4. Irrespective of the recycle ratio, the COD % removal at the system of 2-stage RBC unit was nearly constant as 89% while the maximum one in the 1st-stage unit was 77% in the case of 50% recycle. 5. The maximum COD % removal in the 3-stage RBC system was 93% while 1st-stage one being 80%, under the $NH_4{^+}-N$ load of $7.4g/m^2{\cdot}d$. Also maximum percentage of nitrification and denitrification was 69% and 41% respectively, under the same $NH_4{^+}-N$ load.

Reusing livestock manure have various advantages in securing soil organic resources, and since the costs needed for converting them into liquefied fertilizers are relatively moderate compared to normal treatment, such methods are necessary. In this study, the Recycling Capacity Assessment of Gyeonggi-do was carried out by comparing between the fertilizer demands for specific crops based on the cultivation areas and the amount of fertilizer resources that are generated from livestock manure. From this assessment, the possibility of obtaining resources by converting livestock manure into fertilizers were evaluated. The amount generated of Livestock Manure in Gyeonggi-do were evaluated by applying the emission units to the number of livestock manure. And from the amount generated of Livestock Manure, the amount of fertilizer produced from Livestock Manure were calculated by using the fertilizer a component rate. When considering the amount of fertilizer produced from Livestock Manure based on the type of livestock, N 6,626 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 1,824 ton/year, $K_2O$ 4,480 ton/year were produced from milk cow manure, while N 5,247 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 2,772 ton/year, $K_2O$ 2,879 ton/year, were produced from beef cattle manure. N 14,924 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 7,205 ton/year, $K_2O$ 6,750 ton/year were produced from pigs and N 12,651 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 4,458 ton/year, $K_2O$ 5,542 ton/year were produced by chickens. So the total amount of fertilizers that can be obtained from livestock manure were 3,668 ton/year Nitrogen, 16,259 ton/year phosphate and 19,651 ton/year kalium. And the total fertilizer demands in Gyeonggi-do were Nitrogen 27,200 ton/year, Phosphate 8,853 ton/year, and kalium 13,211 ton/year respectively. Nitrogen which had higher demands than production quantities were considered as limitation factors in crop growth. So the Recycling Capacity Assessment was carried out mainly based on Nitrogen. Since the Nitrogen quantities that can be provided by recycling livestock manure were 3,532 ton/year lesser than the Nitrogen demands, it is estimated that it would be desirable to convert livestock manure into resources. But in order to properly convert the entire livestock manure into organic resources, the seasonal situation that effects the nitrogen demands of crops along with the regional effects due to the industrial structures should be seriously analyzed. In addition, a system that can effectively produce and manage fertilizer should be established.

To evaluate the limitation for epiphytic and planktonic algal growth, acid extractable inorganic phosphorus (AP), implying the luxury uptake phosphorus, was measured in five reed zones of Lake Biwa. The AP in epiphytic substances was 0.7 to 1.4 mg P surface stem $m^{-2}$ in summer and 1.2 to 2.8 mg P $m^{-2}$ in winter. On the other hand, the amount in planktonic substances was 1.4 to 5.7 mg P m -3 and 0.8 to 5.4 mg P $m^{-3}$ in both seasons. Contribution of AP in the epiphytic and planktonic phosphorus was 23 to 31% and 8 to 27% in summer, and 17 to 22% and 9 to 17% in winter. It suggests that in summer both epiphytic and planktonic algae had been luxuriously taken up phosphate into cells. The weight ratios of C : N : P were averaged 79 : 20 : 1 for the epiphytic substances and 81 : 12 : 1 for the particulate substances. On the other hand, the ratios without the luxurious phosphorus were 93 : 24 : 1 and 103 : 15 : 1, showing much higher values than the Redfield ratio. High ratio in the epiphytic substances indicates that the phosphorus is the limiting parameter, rather than nitrogen, regulating the growth of epiphytic algal populations.

본 연구는 식물성 플랑크톤의 1차 생산력에 대한 N:P ratio의 영향을 분석하기 위해 "영양염 첨가실험(NEBs)"을 실시하였다. 영양염 첨가실험(NEBs)에 의한 N:P Ratio의 영향은 대청호에서 측정된 수질데이터와 비교분석하였다. 단기 영양염 첨가실험 결과, 인 (P)을 첨가한 처리군들 (N:P Ratio=5, 15, 20, 30)에서의 1차 생산력의 반응이 대조군 (Control)과 인(P)을 첨가한 처리군 (N:P Ratio=80, $T_V$), 질소(N)를 첨가한 처리군(N:P Ratio=150, $T_{VI}$)에서보다 높았다. 또한 질소 (N)를 처리한 처리군에서는 대조군과 모든 처리군에서보다 1차 생산력의 반응이 유의하게 작았다. 영양염 첨가실험의 결과, 식물성 플랑크톤의 성장에 인이 제한영양염으로 작용하고 있었으며, 질소첨가 (Spiking N)는 식물성 플랑크톤의 성장을 억제한 것으로 사료된다. 대청호의 영양염 변이 분석 결과, 최소 N:P Ratio에서 엽록소-a의 최대농도가 나타났고, N:P Ratio는 식물성 플랑크톤의 성장에 대한 핵심 조절자로 사료되었다. 본 연구결과를 종합해 볼 때, N:P Ratio가 식물성 플랑크톤의 성장을 조절하는 핵심 인자로 작용 할 것으로 사료된다.

Styrene을 제거하기 위한 biofilter가 연구되었다. 운전 초기에 활성슬러지를 접종함으로써 start-up 기간을 24시간으로 줄일 수 있었다. 운전중 질소원 고갈 현상이 발생하였고 첨가된 ammonium sulfate양에 따라 제거된 styrene의 양을 정량적으로 구하여 이것을 biofilter의 장기운전에 이용할 수 있었다. Styrene의 maximum elimination $capacity(EC_{max})$와 critical elimination $capacity(EC_{cr})$는 각각 4.8kg $C\;/m^3{cdot}day$, 1.248kg $C\;/m^3{cdot}day$이었으며 styrene 농도 400ppmv까지를 분해하는데 EBRT 1min으로 제거율 95% 이상을 달성할 수 있었다.

본 연구는 2006년 6월 22일부터 28일까지 식물성 플랑크톤의 1차 생산력을 알아보기 위하여 영양염 첨가 실험을 실시하였다. 평가를 위한 샘플은 저수지 중앙부에서 총 10L를 채수하였으며, Cubitainer에 각각 2.5L씩 분배하였다. 대조군은 원수를 그대로 사용하였으며, 처리군 1에는 $KH_2PO_4$을 첨가하였고, 처리군 2에는 2배 더 많은 $KH_2PO_4$을 첨가하여 각각 P, 2P가 되도록 하였다. 또한 처리군 3에는 $KNO_3$를 첨가하여 $NO_3-N$가 되도록 하였으며, 처리군 4에는 $KH_2PO_4$와 $KNO_3$을 첨가하여 $P+NO_3-N$가 되도록 하여 7일 동안 변화를 관찰하였다. P(T1)와 2P(T2)가 처리된 Cubitainer의 엽록소-${\alpha}$ 농도는 실험기간 동안 점점 감소하였고, 초기의 농도에 비하여 훨씬 낮은 수치를 보였다. 그러나, $NO_3$(T3)와 $P+NO_3$(T4)가 처리된 Cubitainer의 경우, 초기의 엽록소-${\alpha}$ 농도에 비하여 뚜렷하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 단기 실험의 경우 질소가 일차적인 제한요인으로 작용한 것으로 사료되었다. 장기간에 걸친 TP, TN, TN: P mass ratios의 자료에 따르면, 인이 식물 플랑크톤의 성장에 제한요인으로 작용하였고, 채집된 시기와 장소에 따라 제한염류가 변하는 것으로 연구되어 졌다. 본 연구에서 질소는 1차 제한영양염류로 작용하였고 계절적인 영향에 의한 것으로 사료되었다.
