Biological phosphorus removal is characterized by complex interactions between different intracellular components of energy as PHA. Therefore, fundamental understanding of the behavior of the intracellular components and their influence on the removal of phosphorus is essential before control strategies to stabilize the proper process. The purpose of this study is to investigate relationship between release of phosphorus and synthesis of intracellular storage polymer. Mass of stored intracellular storage polymer was 21.2 mg PHA/L, 28.8 mg PHA/g MLSS. And phosphorus release/intracellular storage polymer synthesis rate was 1.8545 mg stored polymer/mg Phosphate. In the aerobic phase, mass of PAOs synthesis is 49.37 mg PAOs/L. And PAOs fraction was 6.7-6.9%. Thus intracellular storage polymer synthesis by PAOs is calculated as 493mg PHA/g PAOs.

유속이 약한 하천이나 호소에 침강된 유기물, 영양염류, 유해화학물질 등의 오염물질은 일단 수중으로부터 제거되어 퇴적물 속에 축적되었다가 확산, 재 부유, 생물교란 등의 물리 화학 생물학적 과정에 의해 다시 수층으로 용출되어 수질 및 수생생태에 직 간접적인 악영향을 미칠 수 있게 된다. 특히 인은 수중생태계의 일차 생산량을 결정하는 중요한 물질중의 하나로 수체 내 물질순환 과정에서 주로 퇴적물에 저장되는 원소로 물리적인 교란 및 생 화학적 작용에 의해 수층으로용출되어 부영양화현상을 가속시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 수층 미생물의 영향을 고려한 경우(호소수)와 미생물의 영향을 배제한(증류수)경우로 구분하여 각각 다른 capping 소재를 적용하여 퇴적물에서의 인 용출 저감 효과를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 화학적소재인 Fe-Gypsum, $SiO_2$-Gypsum로 capping을 할 경우, control보다 인 용출을 약 40% 이상 저감시키는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 복합소재인 granule gypsum+Sand는 약 50% 이상 용출을 저감 효과가 나타났다. 따라서 화학적 소재인 granule-gypsum과 그 위에 모래와 같은 친환경소재로 capping을 한다면 인 용출 저감에 효과적일 것으로 판단된다. Capping 처리 전후의 퇴적층내의 인 성상변화를 살펴본 결과, gypsum 투입에 의하여 호소 퇴적층에 존재하는 인이 용출되기 어려운 안정한 형태인 apatite-P 변화된 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 capping 기술의 적용을 통하여 하천 및 호소 퇴적물에서 발생되는 인 용출에 대한 저감 효율을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The calibrated Andong Reservoir hydro-dynamic module (PART I) of the 2-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model, CE-QUAL-W2 [v3.2], was applied to examine the dynamics of total phosphorus, and chlorophyll $\alpha$ concentration within Andong Reservoir. The modeling effort was supported with the data collected in the field for a five year period. In general, the model achieved a good accuracy throughout the calibration period for both chlorophyll ${\alpha}$ and total phosphorus concentration. The greatest deviation in algal concentration occurred on $10^{th}$ October, starting at the layer just beneath the surface layer and extending up to the depth of 35 m. This deviation is principally attributed to the effect of temperature on the algal growth rate. Also, on the same date, the model over-predicts hypolimnion and epilimnion total phosphorus concentration but under-predicts the high concentrated plume in the metalimnion. The large amount of upwelling of finer suspended solid particles, and re-suspension of the sediments laden with phosphorus, are thought to have caused high concentration in the epilimnion and hypolimnion, respectively. Nevertheless, the model well reproduced the seasonal dynamics of both chlorophyll a and total phosphorus concentration. Also, the model tracked the interflow of high phosphorus concentration plume brought by the turbid discharge during the Asian summer monsoon season. Two different hypothetical discharge scenarios (discharge from epilimnetic, and hypolimnetic layers) were analyzed to understand the response of total phosphorus interflow plume on the basis of differential discharge gate location. The simulated results showed that the hypolimnetic discharge gate operation ($103{\sim}113\;m$) was the most effective reservoir structural control method in quickly discharging the total phosphorus plume (decrease of in-reservoir concentration by 219% than present level).

본 연구는 영산강 죽산보 상류 퇴적물을 대상으로 퇴적물에 존재하는 무기인의 존재형태를 파악하고 수체에 미치는 잠재적인 가능성을 예측해보고자 실험실 실험을 진행하였다. 이를 위해 현장 퇴적물을 채취하여 7일 동안 배양실험을 진행하였고, 배양 후 퇴적물의 존재형태별 인 및 수층의 총인을 측정하였다. 무기인의 총량은 YS1 지점보다 YS2 지점에서 더 많았으며, 존재형태별 인 중 Al-P와 Fe-P의 비율이 높았다. 두 지점 퇴적물 모두 배양 초기에 비해 배양 7일 후 Al-P, Fe-P 그리고 Ca-P는 증가하였으며, Red-P는 시간에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 수층의 총인 농도는 YS1 지점에서 배양시간에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였고, YS2 지점에서는 배양 7일 후 초기에 비해 총인의 농도가 감소하였다. 퇴적물 입자가 조밀한 YS1 지점이 YS2 지점에 비해 수층 총인 농도가 높은 결과로부터 수층의 총인 농도 변화는 퇴적물의 입도에 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 존재형태별 인 중 Fe-P는 수층의 총인 농도와 음의 상관관계를, Red-P는 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 본 연구의 결과로부터, 수층의 총인 농도를 관리하기 위해서는 퇴적물 인의 존재형태별 특성을 지속적으로 모니터링 하는 것의 필요성을 확인할 수 있다.

To remove phosphorus from the effluent of public wastewater treatment facilities, hundreds of enhanced phosphorus treatment processes have been introduced nationwide. However, these processes have a few problems including excessive maintenance cost and sludge production caused by inappropriate coagulant injection. Therefore, the optimal decision of coagulant dosage and automatic control of coagulant injection are essential. To overcome the drawbacks of conventional phosphorus removal processes, the integrated sedimentation and dissolved air flotation(SeDAF) process has been developed and a demonstration plant(capacity: 100 ㎥/d) has also been installed. In this study, various jar-tests(sedimentation and / or sedimentation·flotation) and multiple regression analyses have been performed. Particularly, we have highlighted the decision-making algorithms of optimal coagulant dosage to improve the applicability of the SeDAF process. As a result, the sedimentation jar-test could be a simple and reliable method for the decision of appropriate coagulant dosage in field condition of the SeDAF process. And, we have found that the SeDAF process can save 30 - 40% of coagulant dosage compared with conventional sedimentation processes to achieve total phosphorus (T-P) concentration below 0.2 mg/L of treated water, and it can also reduce same portion of sludge production.

Two consecutive green house experiments were carried out to examine the effect of Azospirillum spp. inoculation on growth, nitrogen and phosphorus accumulation in maize plants grown in pots. There were eight treatments including an uninoculated control and Azospirillum strains OAD-3, OAD-9, AZ-22, AZ-8, AZ-9, Azospirillum brasilense BR-11001 and Azospirillum lipoferum BR-11080. The inoculated plants showed higher values in each of the following measurements; plant height, total dry mass and nitrogen and phosphorus accumulation in shoot when compared to the uninoculated control plants in two consecutive experiments conducted in the same soil. Among Azospirillum strains, Azospirillum sp. OAD-3 inoculated plants showed higher nitrogen accumulation by 44.5% and 45.1%, total dry mass by 48.6% and 66.9% in two consecutive experiments respectively. The nitrogen concentration in the maize plants was not changed significantly in the first experiment, however it increased significantly in the second experiment due to Azospirillum inoculation. In addition, Azospirillum sp. OAD-9 and A. brasilense BR-11001 also proved to be effective with respect to total dry mass, total nitrogen accumulation and total phosphorus accumulation. The nitrogen concentrations in maize plants were increased in the second experiment due to Azospirillum inoculation.

In this study, loess composites, loess with lanthanum and with aluminum, were made and evaluated for treatment of phosphorus removal in natural water system. Desiccation method for production of loess composite was superior to centrifugation method in obtaining high concentrated composites of lanthanum and aluminum. Washing of loess lanthanum composite by water did not deteriorat the lanthanum concentration in the composite, but this lowered the aluminum concentration of loess aluminum composite. Total of 15 and 37.5% of aluminum contents were removed after first washing treatment in aluminum loess of 0.05% and 0.1% respectively. However, no more aluminum loss was monitored with increase of washing times. Phosphorus removal efficiencies were not decreased with washed loess aluminum composite. Phosphorus removal was successfully achieved by adsorption of phosphate to loess composite at pH range of 5.0 ~ 8.0. Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherm was observed in the adsorption of phosphate for loess composite. Dosages of 0.05% and 0.1% lanthanum composite for 95% of phosphorus removal could reduce its usage amount to 25% and 50%, respectively, comparing with dosage of loess alone. Dosages of 0.05% and 0.1% aluminum composite could reduce its usage amount to 48% and 63%, respectively.

The objective of the study was to determine nutrition regime and limitation in the Boryeng Reservoir where there's a water tunnel between Geum River and the reservoir. Evaluation was conducted through in situ algal bioassay experiments (in situ ABEs) using the cubitainer setting in the reservoirs. For in situ ABEs, we compared and analyzed variations in chlorophyll-a (CHL-a) and phosphorus concentrations in Boryeong Reservoir before and after the water tunnel construction. We then analyzed the nutrient effects on the reservoir. Analysis for nitrogen and phosphorus was done in the three locations of the reservoir and two locations of the ABEs. The in situ ABEs results showed that phosphorous and Nitrogen, the primary limiting nutrient regulating the algal biomass was not limited in the system. The treatments of phosphorus or simultaneous treatments of N+P showed greater algal growth than in the control of nitrate-treatments, indicating a phosphorus deficiency on the phytoplankton growth in the system. The water from the Geum River had 5 times higher total phosphorus (TP) than the water in the reservoir. Efficient management is required as pumping of the river water from Geum River may accelerate the eutrophication of the reservoir.

Three barrows weighing 45.0 kg, fitted with simple T-cannulas in both the duodenum and terminal ileum, were assigned to diets in a $3{\times}3$ Latin Square design experiment to determine the effect of two calcium levels (0.8% vs 0.4%) on phytase activity and nutrient balance in growing pigs. The control diet contained 0.8% calcium, with no added inorganic phosphorus (0.45% total phosphorus) and no added phytase. The two additional experimental diets contained microbial phytase (750 phytase units/kg) and supplied either 0.8% or 0.4% calcium. With added microbial phytase, ileal and total tract digestibility of rotal phosphorus were improved by 20.9 and 13.8 percentage units, respectively (p=0.01). The apparent duodenal and ileal digestibility of phytate phosphorus were increased by 51.8 and 49.7 percentage units (p=0.01). Lowering dietary calcium in the presence of microbial phytase increased the digestibility of phytate phosphorus by an additional 10.9 (p=0.001) and 5.7 percentage units for duodenal and ileal digestibility, respectively. Supplementation with microbial phytase significantly reduced fecal excretion of nitrogen and phosphorus and increased the percentage of these nutrients retained by the pig. Lowering dietary calcium further increased the percentage of dietary phosphorus retained. Overall, reducing dietary calcium appeared to increase the effectiveness of added microbial phytase in degrading phytate phosphorus. As a result, care should be taken to avoid high levels of dietary calcium when supplementing swine diets with microbial phytase.
