오염지반 복원을 목적으로 사용한 연직배수시스템의 적용성 평가를 위하여 영향 인자에 대한 지반공학적 특성을 기초로한 파일럿 규모의 실내 오염복원 실험시 오염물질의 복원 효율을 분석하였다. 또한, 도출된 결과를 바탕으로 유한요소 및 유한차분방법에 의한 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 해석시 적용된 물성값에 대한 매개변수를 평가하였다. 오염복원 모형실험과 수치해석에서 최소한계농도비를 기준으로 하여 오염복원율 해석 결과, 지반이 조밀한 경우 최소한계 농도비 도달시간이 더 길어지며, 지속시간에 따른 농도분포를 살펴보았을 때, 농도는 주입배수재를 중심으로 그 주변에서 더 빠르게 제거되고, 반면에 추출배수재 주변에서는 농도가 더 높게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

Korea Gas Corp. has developed the design technology of the LNG storage tank. The membrane to be applied inside of the LNG storage tank is provided with corrugations to absorb thermal contraction and expansion caused by LNG temperature changes. It is very important to measure their thermal strains under LNG temperatures by analytical and experimental stress analysis of the membrane. We have developed a stress measurement system using strain gages and measured the strain during cooldown and storing the LNG. We also analyzed the measured data by comparison with the FEM data. On the basis of these results, we could design and assure the application of the Kogas Membrane to large scale LNG storage.

Experiments for highly concentrated contaminants in pig waste slurry were carried out for the feasibility test of a pilot-scale innovative process scheme of engaging autothermal thermophilic aerobic digestion (ATAD) and expended granular sludge bed (EGSB) followed by sequencing batch reactor (SBR) system. Contaminants in pig waste slurry such as organic substance, total nitrogen (TN), ammonia nitrogen and total phosphorus (TP) contents were successfully reduced in the system. Total volatile solids (TVS) and chemical oxygen demands (COD) for organic matter in the feed were 32.92 g/L and 42.55 g/L respectively, and they were reduced by about 98.7% and 99.2%, respectively in the system. The overall removal efficiencies for TN and ammonium nitrogen were found to be 98.1 and 98.5%, respectively. The overall removal efficiency for total phosphorus was also found to be 92.5%. Faecal coliform density was reduced to <$1.2{\times}10^4CFU/g$ total solids. Biogas and $CH_4$ were produced in the range of 0.39-0.85 and $0.25-0.62m^3/kg$ [VS removed], respectively. The biogas produced in the system comprised of $295{\pm}26ppm$ (v/v) [$H_2S$].

반도체 산업의 wafer 가공공정에서 발생하는 폐수를 재활용하고자 한외여과 공정을 이용한 막분리 공정의 도입 가능성을 검토하였다. Pilot 규모의 장치에 분획분자량이 각각 10,000, 20.000, 30,000인 한외여과막 모듈을 이용하여 투과유속 및 제거율 등을 측정하였다. 투과수의 성상은 SDI15, 탁도, 전기전도도, 실리콘 농도분석을 통해 공정수로 재이용이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 투과유속 저하를 막기 위한 역세척 방법으로는 압축공기와 물은 sweeping 하는 방법이 가장 효과적이었고, 이때 투과유속의 회복율이 높게 나타났다. 분획분자량 30,000인 한외여과막에서 가장 높은 투과유속을 나타내었다. 또한 폐수의 평균 실리콘 입자 평균 함량은 3.8-5.6mg/$\ell$이고, 투과수의 실리콘 입자 함량은 0.2${\mu}g$/$\ell$이하로 나타나 제거율은약 96%이상으로 나타났다.

Multivariate analysis and batch monitoring on a pilot-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) are described for integrated wastewater treatment management system, where a batchwise multiway independent component analysis method (MICA) are used to extract meaningful hidden information from non-Gaussian wastewater treatment data. Three-way batch data of SBR are unfolded batch-wisely, and then a non-Gaussian multivariate monitoring method is used to capture the non-Gaussian characteristics of normal batches in biological wastewater treatment plant. It is successfully applied to an 80L SBR for biological wastewater treatment, which is characterized by a variety of error sources with non-Gaussian characteristics. The batchwise multivariate monitoring results of a pilot-scale SBR for integrated wastewater treatment management system showed more powerful monitoring performance on a WWTP application than the conventional method since it can extract non-Gaussian source signals which are independent and cross-correlation of variables.

The scale-up criterion of constant oxygen mass transfer coefficient ($k_La$) was applied for the production of itaconic acid (IA) in a 50 L pilot-scale fermentor by the fungal cells of Aspergillus terreus. Various operating conditions were examined to collect as many $k_La$ data as possible by adjusting the stirring speed and aeration rate in both 5 L and 50 L fermentor systems. In the fermentations performed with the 5 L fermentor, the highest IA production was obtained under the operating conditions of 200 rpm and 1.5 vvm. Accordingly, we intended to find out parallel agitation and aeration rates in the 50 L fermentor system, under which the $k_La$ value measured was almost identical to that ($0.02sec^{-1}$) of the 5 L system. The conditions of 180 rpm and 0.5 vvm in the 50 L system turned out to be optimal for providing almost the same volumetric amount of dissolved oxygen (DO) into the fermentor, without causing shear damage to the producing cells due to excessive agitation. Practically identical fermentation physiologies were observed in both fermentations performed under those respective operating conditions, as demonstrated by nearly the same values of volumetric ($Q_p$) and specific ($q_p$) IA production rates, IA production yield ($Y_{p/s}$), and specific growth rate (${\mu}$). Specifically, the negligible difference of the specific growth rate (${\mu}$) between the two cultures (i.e., $0.029h^{-1}$ vs. $0.031h^{-1}$) was notable, considering the fact that ${\mu}$ normally has a significant influence on $q_p$ in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites such as itaconic acid.

A series of laboratory-scale corrosion experiments was carried out to observe the effect of dissolved oxygen (DO) in the presence of other water quality parameters, such as hardness, Cl-, and pH using various pipe materials. In addition, a simulated loop system was installed at a water treatment plant for pilot-scale experiment. Laboratory-scale experiment showed that corrosion rates for galvanized steel pipe (GSP), carbon steel pipe (CSP), and ductile cast iron pipe (DCIP) were decreased to 72%, 75%, and 91% by reducing DO concentration from 9${\pm}$0.5 mg/L to 2${\pm}$0.5 mg/L. From the pilot scale experiment, it was further identified that the average ionization rate of zinc in GSP decreased from 0.00533 to 0.00078 mg/$cm^2$/d by controlling the concentration of DO. The reduction of average ionization rate for copper pipe (CP) and stainless steel pipe (SSP) were 71.4% for Cu and 63.5% for Fe, respectively. From this study, it was concluded that DO could be used as a major parameter in controlling the corrosion of water pipes.

The application of the membrane filtration process has been increased for the drinking water treatment system because of excellent quality of treated water compared with the sand filtration process. The selection of suitable pre-treatment processes and optimum flux according to the characteristics of raw water are important factors for the design of membrane processes. In this study, the most efficient pre-treatment processes for drinking water was selected by investigating the effects of pre-treatment processes on the operational stability of the membrane filtration process. Both lab-scale and pilot-scale experiments were conducted. In the lab-scale test, the effect of pre-treatment processes on the stability of the membrane filtration process was investigated indirectly by comparing the performance of membrane flux for raw water, pre-treated water, and membrane permeated water. In the pilot-scale test, the usefulness of prefiltration processes was assessed by comparing the performance of single membrane process and hybrid coagulation-membrane process. The results indicated that the coagulation process contributed to the stabilization of trans-membrane pressure (TMP) by removing contaminants on membranes, though the pre-filtration process had little effect on the TMP.

Purpose: Performance of slurry composting and biofiltration with methane production (SCB-M) using swine manure and sawdust was evaluated. The suitable specific liquid input (SLI) was determined at lab-scale SCB. Method: In lab-scale SCB, the SLI test was performed at liquid input rate of 0.04, 0.09, $0.17cc/cm^3$ with constant sawdust volume. In pilot-scale SCB-M, the swine manure was fed to methane digester at organic loading rate (OLR) of 0.25-0.5 g VS/L/d. The effluent from methane digester was filtered using SCB. Results: The SLI at $0.04cc/cm^3$ showed good performance in terms of retention time. In pilot-scale SCB, the removal of $NH_3$-N and total nitrogen (T-N) was found to be around 59% and 28%, respectively. Similarly, volatile fatty acid (VFA) and total chemical oxygen demand (TCOD) removal was found be 56% and 43%, respectively. Conclusions: For SCB-M process, the SLI of $0.04cc/cm^3$ is recommended. The performance of swine manure treatment was improved more by using SCB-M system than using methane digester only.
