Combined De-NOx Process in which $NH_3$ SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) and non-thermal Plasma Process are simultaneously used, has been investigated with a pilot test facility. The pilot test facility treats the combustion flue gases exhausted from a diesel engine that generates 240 kW of electrical power. Test results show that up to 80 % of NOx (NO and NO2) can be removed at 100 - $200^{\circ}C$. None of conventional De-NOx techniques works under such low temperature range. In addition to NOx. the Pilot test results show that soot can be simultaneously treated with the present non-thermal plasma technique. The present pilot test shows that the electrical power consumption to operate the non-thermal plasma reactor is equivalent to 3 - 4 % of the electrical power generated by the diesel engine.

This study is to install the flexible vertical in order to separate not only the time but also the space in the single reactor by opening and closing the flexible vertical, and to intensify the aerobic, anaerobic and anoxic reactions by reducing the time to activate the microorganism for nitrification, denitrification, release of organic phosphate and luxury uptake of ortho-phosphate. Eventually the result of this study obtained each 90.9%, 76.4% for the removal efficiency of total nitrogen and phosphate. Also, content rate of phosphate at excess sludge was higher $25{\sim}30%$ for SBR reactor with the flexible verticals than existing SBR process. It would be concluded that SBR reactor with flexible verticals is promising for nitrogen and phosphate removal conditions than conventional SBR processes.

The purpose of this study is to remove the organics, nitrogen and phosphorus using biosorption for the domestic sewage. The new process using biosorption is based on the methods of contact-stabilization, which remove the organics by absorbing them to the surface of the microorganism in the activated sludge. This process consists of biosorption reactor, biosorption clarifier, nitrifying reactor, nitrifying clarifier, denitrifying reactor, phosphorus uptake(polishing) reactor and final clarifier. The efficiency of removal could be reached 91% for organics, 76% for nitrogen, 90% for phosphorus in Eujungbu pilot plant. We operated the plant which irrigated $10m^3$ per day for sewage. During our operation the HRT(Hydraulic Retention time) was maintained for 10.5hr, but it could be reduced as 8.5hr according to our operation results.

In this study, we analyzed the operational characteristics of a 0.25 MW methanation pilot plant. Isothermal reactor controled the heat released from methanation reaction by saturated water in shell side. Methanation process consisting of isothermal reactor and adiabatic reactor had advantages with no recycle compressor and more less reactors compared with methanation process with only adiabatic reactors. In case that $H_2$/CO ratio of syngas was under 3, carbon deposition occurred on catalyst in tube side of isothermal reactor and the pressure of reactors increased. In case that $H_2$/CO ratio was maintained around 3, no carbon deposition on catalyst in tube side of isothermal reactor was found by monitoring the differential pressure of reactors and by measuring the differential pressure of several of tubes filled with catalyst before and after operating. It was shown that CO conversion and $CH_4$selectivity were over 99, 97%, respectively, and the maximum $CH_4$productivity was $695ml/h{\cdot}g-cat$.

In SNG (synthetic natural gas) process by proposed RIST(Research Institute of Industrial Science & Technology)-IAE(Institute for Advanced Engineering) (including three adiabatic reactors and one isothermal reactor), the methanation reaction and water gas shift (WGS) reaction take place simultaneously, and the supply of steam with syngas might control the temperature in catalyst bed and deactivate the catalyst. In this study for development of SNG process, the characteristics of the methanation reaction with a Ni-based catalyst by prepared RIST and using a low $H_2/CO$ mole ratio (including $CO_2$ 22%) are evaluated. The operating conditions ($H_2O/CO$ ratio of the $1^{st}$ adiabatic reactor, operating temperature range of $4^{th}$ isothermal reactor, etc.) were reflected the results from previous studies and in the same condition a pilot scale SNG process is carried out. As a results, the pilot scale SNG process is stable and the CO conversion and $CH_4$ selectivity are 100% and 96.9%, respectively, while the maximum $CH_4$ productivity is $660ml/g_{cat}{\cdot}h$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the biodegradability and performance of organic removal and methane production rate when treating piggery wastewater using a pilot scale two-phase anaerobic system operated up to a volumetric rate of $10m^3/day$. The pilot scale two-phase anaerobic process is consisted of a continuous-flow stirred-tank reactor (CFSTR) for the acidification phase and an Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket reactor (UASB) for the methanogenesis. The acidogenic reactor played key roles in reducing the periodically applied shock-loading and in the acidification of the influent organics. The acidogenic CFSTR was operated at organic loading rates (OLR) between 1.8 and $14.4kgCOD/m^3{\cdot}day$, and the UASB reactor was operated between 0.5 and $5.6kgCOD/m^3{\cdot}day$. A stable maximum biogas production rate was $81m^3/day$ and the methane conversion rate of the organic matter varied from 0.30 to $0.42L\;CH_4/g\;COD_{removed}$(0.40) at hydraulic retention time (HRT) above 3.5days. The methane contents ranged from 73 to 82% during the experimental period. It is known that most of the removed organic matter was converted to methane gas, and the produced biogas might be high quality for its subsequent use.

The characteristics of the bio-oil produced by the pyrolysis process with pig feces was investigated in this paper. The continuous auger-type reactor produced bio-oil was maintained at the temperature range of 400 to $600^{\circ}C$, which was higher than a typical that in a conventional pyrolysis system. The pig feces was used as the feedstock. The bio-oil and its compositions were characterized by water analysis, heating values, elemental analysis, bio-oil compounds, by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS), and functional group by $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy. It was found that the maximum bio-oil yields of 21% w.t. was achieved at $550^{\circ}C$. This result suggested that this auger reactor might be a potential technology for livestock waste treatment to produce bio-oil because it is able to be improved to reach higher efficiency of bio-oil production in further study. The pyrolysis system reported herein had low heat transfer into the feedstock in the auger reactor so that it needs improve the heat conduction rate of the system in further study.

A pilot study was performed to examine the feasibility of multiple stage of constructed wetland (CW) for nutrient removal. The system is composed of six wetland cells connected with water-ways. The hydraulic of wetland cells is designed as free water surface flow. The treatment capacity was $25m^3d^{-1}$ at HRT of about one day for each cell. The magnitude of nutrient removal was related with the length of wetlands and plant density. Total N and P removal rates were 1353 and $246mg\;m^{-2}d^{-1}$ respectively. The pilot-scale reactor was model as continuous flow system containing contribution of CSTR and PFR typed-reactors. The $k-C^*$ model equation was applied to predict N and P reduction. The result indicated the equation was well guided to estimate reduction of $NO_3-N$ and $PO_4-P$.

In this study we investigated the removal characteristics of NOM and bromate formation characteristics in SOMT reactor. The system was recently developed as a novel ozone reactor and installed in SJ pilot plant. DOC values were decreased within 3% after treatment of 0.5~2.0 mg/L ozone dosage in SOMT reactor while the $UV_{254}$ value was 69% decreased at 2.0 mg/L ozone dosage. The composition of NOM was analysed by LC-OCD (Organic Cabon Detector) after ozone treatment in SOMT reactor to elucidate the variation of NOM character. Polysaccharide (more than 20,000 g/mol) fraction of NOM was decomposed while building blocks (350~500 g/mol) and neutral (less than 350 g/mol) fraction increased. Spiked bromide reacted with 0.5~2.0 mg/L ozone dosage in the SOMT reactor. The bromate formation was proportional to the ozone dosage ($R^2=0.978$) but not proportional to reaction time. The maximum concentration of formated bromate was not exceeded to 10% of spiked bromide concentration.
