  • This study is to compare and analyze the strength, drying shrinkage and carbonation properties of lightweight aggregate mortar using recycling water as prewetting water and mixing water. The flow, compressive strength, split tensile strength, drying shrinkage and carbonation depth of lightweight aggregate mortar with recycling water were measured. As test results, the mortar flow was similar in all mixes regardless of the recycling water content. The compresseive strength of the RW5 mix with 5% recycling water as prewetting water and mixing water was the highest value, about 53.9 MPa after 28 days. In addition, the tensile strength of lightweight mortar was about 3.4 to 3.8 MPa, indicating 7 to 9% of the compressive strength value regardless of recycling water content. In the case of drying shrinkage, the RW2.5 mix using 2.5% recycling water showed the lowest shrinkage rate as about 0.107% at 56 days. The drying shrinkage of the plain mix without recycling water was relatively higher than the RW2.5 and RW5 mix. The RW5 mix showed lowest carbonation depth compared to other mixes. In this study, the RW5 lightweight aggregate mortar with 5% recycling water exhibits excellent compressive strength and carbonation resistance. Therefore, it is considered that if the recycling water, a by-product of the concrete industry, is properly used as prewetting water and mixing water of lightweight mortar and concrete, it will be possible to increase the recycling rate of the by-product and contribute to improve the property of lightweitht aggregate mortar and concrete.

  • Whole amount of waste water, approximately 921.6 liter, for cleaning a ready mixed concrete truck should be used to produce concrete as a mixing water or cleaning water. Recycling water for concrete mixing contains solids, which cause decrease in slump, air and compressive strengths, so it may influence on poor concrete quality. Therefore, it has been maintained to use recycling water with less than 3 percent of solids. Since no evaluation system has been constructed to directly reflect on variability of recycling water from ready mixed concrete plants, it is necessary to develop "Automatic recycling solid measuring system" for quality controls in real time. In this research, sensors measuring waste water concentration in ultrasonic and inductance methods were developed, and automatic system using the sensors were established. The accuracy of measurement sensors developed for recycling water based on various conditions of concentration was proved, and application limits were evaluated. Also, concentration of recycling water using sensors developed from ready mixed concrete plant was measured, and curing method verified the accuracy of the sensors. Moreover, measurement sensors for recycling water in various locations were installed to evaluate the effects on measuring method and spots. The automatic measuring system for recycling water concentration, which is developed in the research, will contribute to improve concrete quality safety through reliable solids maintenance.

  • The demand for water in a city area has enormously increased due to the concentration of population and improvement of the living quality. In this reason, the water shortage and the pollution by city sewage seem to be inevitable. For saving city water and meeting the demands from the city, the wastewater recycling system can be used, which makes used water reusable by a certain purification process. In Korea, the application of a wastewater recycling system to the buildings has continuously been adopted since its first appearance at the Lotte World Complex in 1989. However, the system has not been in fashion because of its high cost and users' negative attitude against recycled water. A research based on literature review and a case study for a recycling water system was carried out and an estimation and evaluation model was proposed. The results from the present study suggest that the optimal size of the recycling water system should be designed within 30-40% of total water demand in a building. Also, it was found that economic benefits could be expected within the payback period of 5.3 years by securing the operation rate over 70%.

  • In the manufacturing process of ready-mixed concrete, quantity management directly affects the workability and strength of concrete. Therefore, water quantity is the most important management factor for water quality control of ready-mixed concrete. It can be said that the number of unit water in the mix design, the water quantity due to the surface water contained in the aggregate used, and the water quantity taking into account the concentration of sludge contained in the recycling water when using the recycling water are factors that affect the quantity management of ready-mixed concrete. In this study, as a stable quality control method of ready-mixed concrete, a quantity management method by aggregate surface water and a sludge concentration management method according to the use of recycling water were proposed. Thus, we tried to suggest an efficient quantity management method for stabilizing the quality of ready-mixed concrete.

  • It is desirable to reduce the amounts of fresh water and reuse the recycled water in papermaking process. In an attempt to improve the efficiency of recycling water refining treatment and to enhance the productivity of OCC recycling mill, up flow anaerobic sludge blanket(UASB) reactor was developed and introduced to Korea recently. In order to maximize the operating efficiency and minimize the adverse side effects it is imperative to estimate and evaluate the total effects of new system, UASB on the whole OCC recycling process. This study was carried out with a view to investigate the effects of the high temperature and alkalinity of process water on the quality ad productivity of testliner of OCC recycling mill which is equipped with UASB reactor and almost closed. Another object of this study was searching for the best available use of UASB treated process water. The results were as follows; Reuse of UASB treated water characterized with high temp and alkalinity was useful to improve the strength and drainage properties of recycled OCC owing to its good points of promoting OCC disintegration and reducing the calcium hardness of process water. However, it might not be avoidable to induce the increase of dissolved solids in process water in accordance with direct introducing of UASB treated water into the former stage of OCC stock preparation. So it would be advisable to adopt the UASB treated water in the stage of clean, screened OCC stock.

  • The use of water purifiers has been increasing every year due to increased drinking water safety concerns raised by the water pollution accidents occasionally reported. Currently, more than 10 million water purifiers have been distributed in Korea, and the estimation of the purifier sales reaches two million units per year. As a result, the number of used water purifier filters that must be replaced on a regular basis has gradually increased. However, regardless of the considerations for the capacity of used filters remaining, water purifier filters were replaced and collected at regular intervals. The high cost of disposal of the used filters by landfill or incineration were required. Thus, in this study, the current status and trends of recycling technologies for used water purifier filters were reviewed. It is noted that there was insufficient statistical data to understand the current status of the difference between the number of used water filters discarded and the number of those recycled. Most studies on the recycling of old water purifier filters have concentrated on pretreatment and cleaning methods for sediment filters and membrane filters, with the goal of extending the lifespan of used filters. Further, the study suggested future study directions on the recycling of used water purifier filters, which could be useful information on establishing environmental policy to promote the recycling of used filters.
