Ozone is a strong oxidant and a powerful disinfectant. In general, it has been used in drinking water treatment during last 100years. Ozone dissolution features are defined by the two categories of ozone contactors, bubble-diffuser and sidestream ozone contactor. Currently, sidestream-injection systems are gaining in popularity but operating cost might be slightly higher. Sidestream ozone system dissolve ozone into a sidestream flow via an injection setup or in the main process flow stream in some sidestream arrangements. The sidestream flow is subsequently mixed with the main process flow stream, which is directed to a reation tank or pipeline for oxidation and disinfection reactions. The purpose of this study is to suggest optimal operating pressure, to figure out the static-mixer effect and to understand the microbubble characteristics of ozone to improve dissolution efficiency.

본 연구에서는 오존을 이용한 잉여슬러지의 가용화 실험을 실시하였다. 오존의 접촉효율을 높이기 위해 마이크로버블화된 오존(이하 마이크로버블 오존이라 함)을 이용하였으며, 생성된 마이크로버블 오존의 사이즈는 평균 직경 30 ${\mu}m$ 정도였고, 40 ${\mu}m$ 이하가 전체의 약 90% 정도를 나타내었다. 마이크로버블 오존을 이용한 슬러지 처리에 있어서는 슬러지 농도에 상관없이 오존주입율을 0.34 g $O_3/g$ SS 이하로 주입할 경우, 폐오존의 발생 없이 오존소모율이 100%인 것으로 조사되었다. 각 농도별 슬러지 처리에 있어서 슬러지의 초기 SS 농도를 6,447 mg/L, 5,557 mg/L, 3,180 mg/L, 1,092 mg/L 및 515mg/L로 하였을 경우, 동일한 오존주입율에 있어서 초기 SS의 농도가 증가할수록 제거되는 SS량이 증가하는 경향을 나타내어, 오존의 산화효율을 높이기 위해서는 초기 SS의 농도가 높은 슬러지를 처리하는 것이 효과적이었다. 한편, 슬러지의 복합 처리로서 산과 알칼리 그리고 오존처리를 검토한 결과, 오존의 전처리로서 산처리를 이용하는 것이 알칼리처리에 비해 효과적이었으며, 슬러지에 주입하는 황산의 농도를 0.01 N로 하고, 오존주입율 0.05 g $O_3/g$ SS로 처리한 경우, 제거된 SS의 양은 153.9 g으로 오존단독처리시 81.2 g에 비해 1.9배의 많은 양이 제거되었다.

The rise in population and industrialization accounts for the generation of a huge amount of wastewaters. The treatment of this wastewater is obligatory to safeguard the environment and various life forms. Conventional methods for high strength wastewater treatment coming out to be ineffective. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for such wastewater treatment proved to be very effective particularly for the removal of various refractory compounds present in the wastewater. Ozone based AOPs with its high oxidizing power and excellent disinfectant properties is considered to be an attractive choice for the elimination of a large spectrum of refractory compounds. Furthermore, it enhances the biodegradability of wastewaters after treatment which favors subsequent biological treatments. In this review, a detailed overview of the AOPs (like the Fenton process, photocatalysis, Electrochemical oxidation, wet air oxidation, and Supercritical water oxidation process) has been discussed explicitly focusing on ozone-based AOPs (like O₃, O₃/H₂O₂, O₃/UV, Ozone/Activated carbon process, Ozone/Ultrasound process, O₃/UV/H₂O₂ process). This review also comprises the involved mechanisms and applications of various ozone-based AOPs for effective municipal/industrial wastewaters and landfill leachate treatment. Process limitations and rough economical analysis were also introduced. The conclusive remarks with future research directions also underlined. It was found that ozonation in combination with other effective AOPs and biological methods enhances treatment efficacies. This review will serve as a reference document for the researchers working in the AOPs field particularly focusing on ozone-based AOPs for wastewater treatment and management systems.

The relationship between ozone-induced damages and ethylend evolution was examined in tomato plants fumigated with ozone of 0.2 $\mu\ell/\ell$. The rate of evolution of ethylent by tomato plants was enhanced by ozone fumigation. Pretreatment of leaves with aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG), an inhibitor of ethylene evolution, significantly inhibited the evolution of ethylene that was induced by ozone and concomitantly reduced the extent of ozone-induced visible damage to leaves. Treatment with 2,5-norbonadiene (NBD), and inhibitor of the action of ethylene, strongly reduced the extent of visible damage caused by ozone, even though it did not suppress the evolution of ethylene. These results indicated that ethylene might play an important role in ozone-induced plant injuries at relatively short terms of ozone fumigation. Next, we examined the effect of tiron, a scanvenger of the free-radical, on evolution of ethylene and leaf injury caused by ozone. Tiron treatment strongly reduced the extent of ozone-induced injury, but had not inhibitory effect on the evolution of ethylene from tomato leaves. This result suggests the involvement of free-radical, such as superoxide radicals, in induction of injuries caused by ozone.

This study investigates the treatment of pigment wastewater using a sequential batch reactor (SBR) followed by dissolved ozone flotation-pressurized ozone oxidation treatement (DOF-$PO_2$). The process efficiency has been evaluated at the lab scale on the basis of water quality parameters. In addition, the effect of pure oxygen and air was investigated on the removal of COD, BOD, and TN in the SBR process. It was observed that under comparable conditions the removal efficiencies of these water quality parameters using pure oxygen and air were similar. The effect of the recycle rate was also investigated for its impact on the water quality parameters using different ozone dissolving pressures in a DOF process in order to optimise conditions. The results conclude that the use of an SBR and ozone contact by DOF-$PO_2$ is a highly effective treatment for pigment wastewater and aids in the achievement of effluent discharge criteria.

To suppress mold generation of yujacheong, Penicillium chrysogenum LB31 was cultured, and spores were harvested and put into yujacheong. Antioxidant activity, useful ingredients, mold size and incidence were investigated while storing yujacheong for 30 days, after sterilization with different methods (nontreatment, ozone gas emission, heating after ozone gas emission and heating). The results showed that the content of narirutin, naringin, hesperidin, or neohesperidin, which are functional components of yuzu, increased as the storage period increased in all the treatment units. In addition, mold generation was not observed until the 15th day in the heat treatment group after ozone gas emission. As the treatment group emitted ozone gas. molds of 34.8 and 112 mm2 in size were observed on the 30th day. These results suggested that ozone sterilization can prevent microbial contamination, further extending the shelf life of yuzacheong and maintaining a fresh state.

본 연구에서는 정수처리 공정에서 오존을 보다 효율적으로 적용하기 위하여 수중의 오존소비특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 오존의 소비특성을 측정하기 위하여 흐름주입분석법(FIA: Flow injection analysis)의 원리를 이용하여 오존분해속도 측정 자동화장치를 제작하였다. 수중의 오존농도를 연속적으로 측정함으로써 오존의 소비 경향은 순간적으로 오존이 소모되는 구간(I.D: instantaneous ozone demand)과 의사 1차 반응($k_c$: pseudo first-order rate constant)으로 소모되는 두 구간으로 나누어지며, 각 구간에서 오존 주입량에 의하여 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 I.D와 $k_c$값을 이용하여 구한 모델식으로부터 시간에 따른 오존 잔류농도를 예측할 수 있었으며, 예측된 모델간은 실험값과 비교하였을 때 거의 일치하는 것을 알 수 있었다. OH 라디칼의 농도 및 $R_{ct}$는 OH 라디칼 probe compound를 이용하여 간접적으로 계산하였다. I.D와 $k_c$ 구간에서 OH 라디칼 생성 경향을 파악할 수 있었으며, OH 라디칼 생성 또한 오존 주입량에 의하여 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 정수처리 공정 및 계절에 따른 수질 차이에 의해서 오존소비인자가 변화하는 것을 확인하였으며, 이에 따라 오존공정의 적절한 도입위치 및 주입량을 효과적으로 결정해야 할 것으로 판단되었다.

We studied on the bleaching properties of silk fabric by vapor type ozone processing using ozone's strong oxidation instead of 28% $H_2O_2$ chemical treatment. When vapor type ozone processing was directly treated to fabrics retaining water to 50~70% pick up ratio, high concentration ozone was generated 14,000ppm(168 mg/h) approximately and finally its bleaching improved. The fabric's bleaching effect was improved because vapor type ozone generated the highest decomposition to oxidation of surface and inter molecules. The experiment revealed that fabric's bleaching was improved by change of the pick-up ratio of vapor type ozone processing. However, tensile strength and elongation were reduced by increase of time, and the time that was assumed as the most optimized time to minimize the reduction of fabric's tensile strength and elongation as well as maximizing the fabric's bleaching was 30 minutes.

We studied on the softness properties of polyester fabric by vapor type ozone processing using ozone's strong oxidation instead of 25% NaOH chemical treatment. When vapor type ozone processing was directly treated to fabrics retaining water to 40% pick up ratio, high concentration ozone was generated oxidation of 3~4% approximately in polyester fabrics and finally its softness improved. The fabric's softness effect was improved because vapor type ozone generated the highest decomposition to oxidation of surface and inter molecules. The experiment revealed that fabric's softness was improved by change of the time of vapor type ozone processing. However, tensile strength and elongation were reduced by increase in time, 60 minute was assumed as the most optimized time to minimize the reduction of fabric's tensile strength and elongation as well as maximizing the fabric's softness.
