광물조성과 노출표면적(exposed surface area)은 토양풍화속도 계산모델에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인들이다. PROFILE 등 기존의 풍화속도 계산모델에서는 입도분석자료에 기초한 기하학적 계산값이나 $N_2$-BET 비표면적 등을 그대로 노출표면적으로 적용하고 있다. 그러나, 토양은 광물과 유기물의 혼합체로써 노출표면적을 정확히 구하기는 상당히 어려운 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 유기물의 영향에 의한 토양광물의 노출표면적변화를 토양 깊이에 따른 peroxidation 전후의 N2-BET 비표면적값을 통해 살펴보고, 토양칼럼실험을 이용하여 풍화속도의 차이를 살펴보았다. 실험결과 peroxidation 후의 $N_2$-BET 비표면적은 1.68~4.87 $m^2$/g의 범위에서 증가하였으며, 깊이에 따라 증가하는 범위가 감소하는 경향을 보여주었다 이는 부식산 등 토양표면에 농집되어 존재하는 다양한 형태의 유기산 등이 광물의 노출표면적을 감소시키고 있다는 것을 의미한다고 할 수 있다 기존의 토양풍화속도 모델에서 토양광물 노출표면적변화 계산에 있어서 광물-유기산간의 결합에 의한 영향을 결합세기 측면에서 고려하고 정량화 하는 것이 향후과제라고 생각된다.

본 연구에서는 생물막 유동층 반응기를 이용하여 주정공장폐수를 처리함에 있어 상향유속과 유기물 부하의 변동에 따른 미생물의 성상과 유기물 처리효율을 조사하고, 미생물 성장과 유기물 처리효율을 조사하고, 미생물 성상에 따른 미생물 농도의 변화를 계산하여 이를 실측한 미생물 농도와 비교하였다. 상향유속에 따라 미생물 농도, 미생물막 두께는 민감한 반응을 보였고, 미생물 농도를 높게 유지하기 위해서는 상향유속을 낮게 유지하는 것이 효과적이나, 이에 따라 미생물막도 증가하나 유기물의 제거율은 상대적으로 증가하지 못하므로 적절한 상향유속을 유지하는 것이 유기물 제거율이 측면에서는 유리한 것으로 고찰되었다. 또한 기존 활성슬러지법에서 주정폐수를 처리할 때는 유기물 부하율 1.5kgCOD/$m^3{\cdot}day$에서 70% 이하의 COD처리효율을 나타내는데 반해, 생물막 유동층 반응기에서는 6kgCOD/$m^2{\cdot}day$ 이상에서도 80%의 COD처리효율을 나타내었다.

Poly-${\gamma}$-glutamic acid (${\gamma}-PGA$), which is extracted from fermented soybeans, is a high molecular weight, adhesive, and negatively charged(anionic) polymer. Recently, ${\gamma}-PGA$ has gained attention due to its potential as polymer. The objectives of this study were to examine the applicability of ${\gamma}-PGA$ as a coagulant and/or a coagulant aid, to evaluate the efficiency of ${\gamma}-PGA$ for the removal of Organic and Ammonium substance in wastewater treatment. The effect of coagulation was evaluated for the removal of SS and organic matter using poly aluminum chloride(PACI) as well as newly developed ${\gamma}-PGA$. The maximum COD removal rate of 63% and the SS of 78% were occurred at the dosage of 50mg/L ${\gamma}-PGA$ only. The most effective removal for particulate and organic matter was occured when both PACI and ${\gamma}-PGA$ were applied at the rate of 20:1(10mg/L PACI and 0.5mg/L ${\gamma}-PGA$). When mixed with PACI, only small portion of ${\gamma}-PGA$ was enough to improve removal efficiencies of organic and particulate matter in wastewater. This result showed the positive potential of ${\gamma}-PGA$ as a new coagulant materials for wastewater treatment.

This study was performed to develop a new process technology for advanced wastewater treatment using a modified Rotating Activated Bacillus Contactor (RABC) process that adopts anoxic-oxic suspended biomass tanks to enhance nutrients removal. A modified lab-scale RABC process was applied to examine its applicability and to obtain the design factors for the optimum operation of the system. The modified RABC process showed a little more stable and high nutrients removal efficiency than the prototype RABC process: about 70% of nitrogen and 55% of phosphorous removal when the low organic loading (influent COD 200mg/L). However, the processing efficiency of nutrients removal rates was enhanced to great extent when high organic loading: nitrogen 90% and phosphorous 85% (influent COD 500mg/L). High organic loading stimulated extremely good biomass attachment on the reticular carrier RABC stage and the excellent nutrients removal, nevertheless with almost no offensive odor.

In this research, Effect of C/N ratio on nutrient removal in intermittently aerated activated sludge system(IAASS) was investigated with dormitary, building and swine wastewater. Three types (2-stage, 4-stage, modified) of IAASS were operated. Time interval of aeration/nonaeration in IAASS was 1hr/1hr. In treatment of Dormitary wastewater(BOD/T-N ratio : 4.4), Building wastewater (BOD/T-N ratio : 3.14) and swine wastewater(BOD/T-N ratio : 3.84), Nitrogen removal efficiency of 80, 70 and 90.4% was achieved, respectively. Nitrogen removal in IAASS was a great influenced on influent C/N ratio, efficient nitrogen removal was achieved at BOD/T-N ratio over 4. In IAASS operation, $\Delta $BOD mg/L/$\Delta $ nitrogen mg/L ratio was about 4-6. Simultaneous removal of organic, nitrogen and phosphorus in IAASS can achieved. And influent organic was efficiently utilized in denitrification. IAASS could be one of the best alternative process for the retrofit of conventional activated sludge system for the removal of nutrients.

본 연구는 폐수로부터 몇 가지의 유기오염물(Phenol, 2-Chlorophenol, Nitrobenzene)을 비분산 용매추출법으로 동시 제거하는 실험이다. 몇 가지의 용매(MIBK, IPAc, Hexane)에 대하여 분배계수를 구하였고, 용매와 폐수사이의 향류와 병류 흐름에 의한 추출 실험을 하였다. 수용액상의 유량이 증가함에 따라 용매와의 접촉시간이 짧아져 제거율이 떨어지고, 용매의 유량이 증가함에 따라 제거율이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 병류보다는 향류에서 유기오염물의 제거율이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 유기오염물만이 아닌 다른 중금속 오염물 둥도 처리할 수 있는 산업용 폐수처리장치의 개발을 위한 기초자료로 쓰일 수 있다.

In this research, the synthetic livestock wastewater was prepared to study the characteristics of organic matter removal, the change of VFA production, and the amount of gas production with respect to the change of ammonium nitrogen concentration in the waste using anaerobic fixed bed process, which is an anaerobic biofilm process. The HRT and operation temperature were 1 day and $35{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, respectively. Also, the characteristics of organic matter removal and the inhibitory effect on microorganism in the anaerobic process were studied on the organic loading and ammonium nitrogen concentration. The results obtained were as follows: For COD loading of $10kg/m^3$-day and five levels of ammonium nitrogen concentration ranging from 1,000 to 5,000 mg/L, organic removal efficiencies were about 81, 74, 67, 58, and 51%, and gas productions were 3,860, 3,520, 3,240, 3,020, and 2,790 ml/l-day, respectively. Average methane contents in the gas produced on COD loading of $10kg/m^3$-day was about 76%. Throughout the whole period of experiment, remaining VFA (as COD base) in the effluent was over 90% of remaining COD. This result indicated the inhibitory effect of high concentration of ammonium nitrogen through the facts that accumulated VFA was almost COD and organic removal efficiency decreased also with the increase of ammonium nitrogen. Especially, that implys which high concentration of ammonium nitrogen not only inhibits methane forming bacteria, but also acid forming bacteria.

UV-catalytic oxidation technique was applied for the treatment of bio-refractory character of the leachate, which is generally present in the form of adsorbable organic halogens (AOX). Destruction of AOX was likely to be governed by pH adjustment, quantitative measurement of oxidants, and the selection of oxidation model type. Peroxide induced degradation ($UV/H_2O_2$) facilitated the chemical oxidation of organic halides in acidic medium, however, the system showed least AOX removal efficiency than the other two systems. Increased dosage of hydrogen peroxide (from 0.5 time to 1.0 time concentration) even did not contribute to a significant increase in the removal rate of AOX. In ozone induced degradation system ($UV/O_3$), alkaline medium (pH 10) favored the removal of AOX and the removal rate was found 11% higher than the rate at pH 3. Since efficiency of the $UV/O_3$ increases with the increase of pH, therefore, more OH-radicals were available for the destruction of organic halides. UV-light with the combination of both ozone and hydrogen peroxide ($UV/H_2O_2$ 0.5 time/$O_3$ 25 mg/min) showed the highest removal rate of AOX and the removal efficiency was found 26% higher than the removal efficiency of $UV/O_3$. The system $UV/H2O_2/O_3$ got the economic preference over the other two systems since lower dose of hydrogen peroxide and relatively shorter reaction time were found enough to get the highest AOX removal rate.

This study assessed the removal characteristics of taste and odor causing compounds (2-methylisoborneol and geosmin) and organic matters, using a pilot-scale ozone/granular activated carbon ($O_{3}$/GAC) process treating surface water of Pal-dang reservoir in the Han river over a 3-month period. Experiments were conducted to verify the removal efficiency of $O_{3}$/GAC process which has two different empty bed contact time (EBCT) ($O_{3}$/GAC column 1 : 10 min and 2 : 15.1 min) with 10.86 min contact time of ozonation at 1.0 mg/L $O_{3}$. Spiking test using geosmin and 2-MIB was also conducted systematically to mimic the conditions when the algae appears, specifically at the levels similar to the concentrations experienced (geosmin: 250 ng/L) in the winter of 2011. In single ozonation process, organic materials, disinfection by-products (DBPs) and their precursors were disassembled but not removed completely. Meanwhile, it was verified that organic matters, taste and odor causing compounds, and DBPs were well removed when sequentially passing through the GAC process. The pilot results also showed that GAC column with larger EBCT achieved higher removal efficiency. Specifically, in spiking tests, single $O_{3}$ process showed approximately 89% removal efficiency of geosmin and 2-MIB. $O_{3}$/GAC combined process demonstrated excellent removal of geosmin and 2-MIB, which are higher than 95%.

The Disinfectants/Disinfection By-products (D/DBP) Rule proposed by the US Environmental Protection Agency requires the implementation of enhanced coagulation as a control strategy for natural organic matter (NOM) removal and as a means of limiting the formation of all DBPs, i.e., not just the trihalomethanes and haloacetica acids. To control DBP formation, several best available technologies (BATs) were determined for removal of DBPs and DBP precursors. The enhanced coagulation is one of the BATs for DBP precursors removal. Treatment facilities that achieve a specified percent removal of total organic carbon (TOC) prior to the application of a continuous disinfectant or that achieve a residual TOC concentration < 2mg/L prior to the application of a continuous disinfectant are considered to be in compliance with enhanced coagulation. The enhanced coagulation was applied to raw water in Korea, the Han River. Raw water were examined and effects of different raw water qualities on enhanced coagulation were investigated. Three analyses were used for raw water characteristics, water quality measurement, molecular weight distributions, hydrophobic/hydrophilic fractionation. The Han River had the relatively low alkalinity and low organic carbon concentration. The results of molecular weight distributions showed significant portions of low molecular weight organics, which is very different from most water in USA. The alum doses for the required TOC removal guided from USEPA manual were quite low (i.e. 10~30 mg/L alum) for the water, probably due to the specific water quality of the Han River.
