부유 및 부착성장 미생물을 이용한 접촉안정형 영양염류처리 하이브리드공정은 질산화 반응조내에 EPS(Expanded Poly-Styrene) 여재를 충진하여 autotrophs와 heterotrophs의 분리성장과 질산화균의 우점화를 도모함으로써 수리학적체류시간 6시간 이내에서도 양호한 처리수질을 얻을 수 있는 공정이다. 본 공정의 운전결과 방류수의 $BOD_5,\;COD_{Mn}$, SS의 평균농도는 5.2 mg/L, 7.3 mg/L, 4.9 mg/L이었으며, T-N 및 T-P농도는 6.8 mg/L 및 0.6 mg/L로서 양호한 처리 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 본 공법의 평균 제거효율은 $BOD_5,\;COD_{Mn}$, SS의 경우 94.6%, 79.8%, 94.9%이었으며, T-N 및 T-P로서 70.8% 및 76.9%로 나타났다. EPS 여재에 부착된 부착미생물 군집의 16S-rRNA 분석결과 ammonia-oxidizing bacteria로 알려진 Nitrosomonas속, Nitrosoccus속, Gallionella속이 포함된 cluster가 EPS 여재에 부착된 biofilm의 6% 정도인 것으로 조사되었다. 결과적으로 질산화미생물의 우점화를 통해 질산화 반응시간을 단축시킴으로서 6시간 이내의 짧은 수리학적 체류시간에서도 T-N 및 T-P농도를 10 mg/L 및 1.0 mg/L 이하로 처리할 수 있었던 것으로 사료된다.

녹조로 널리 알려진 남조류 과다증식은 심미적 불쾌감뿐만 아니라 독성물질을 생성하기 때문에 댐 수질 관리에 있어 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 녹조 발생을 억제하기 위하여 호소 유역으로부터 유입되는 비점오염물질 특히, 영양염류 저감이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 친환경적 방법으로 알려진 인공습지의 장기간 운영 결과를 분석하여 비점오염물질 제어 수단으로서 인공습지의 적용 가능성 및 공정운영 관련 기초자료를 구축하기 위하여, 2014~2020년 동안 대청호 유역에 위치한 안내천 인공습지의 오염물질 처리효율을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, BOD 14.3%, COD 17.9%, SS 50.0%, T-N 19.0%, T-P 35.4%로 인공습지가 오염 물질 제거에 효과적임을 확인하였다. 계절별 처리효율은 오염물질별로 다른 경향을 보였는데, 주로 미생물의 반응에 의해 제거되는 BOD, COD, T-N은 겨울철에 비해 봄~가을에 높은 처리효율을 나타내었다. 그러나 수생식물에 의해 주로 제거되는 T-P는 처리효율에 있어 겨울에도 안정적인 처리효율을 나타내 호소 유입부하를 저감하는 데 효과적임을 확인하였다. 오염부하에 따른 제거율은 모든 오염물질이 유입수의 중간농도 및 고농도 구간에서 유출수 농도가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 초기 강우와 같은 고부하 조건에서도 인공습지가 호소로 유입되는 비점오염물질을 안정적으로 제거해 호소의 부영양화를 억제하는 데 효과적으로 활용될 수 있음을 보여준다. 다만, 습지는 자연정화에 기반한 시설로 인위적인 공정 제어가 어렵기 때문에 향후 유역별 특성에 따라 다양한 운영사례 연구가 정립된다면 우리나라 호소의 녹조 문제 해결을 위해 유용한 방법이 될 것으로 판단된다.

The feasibility of the high-hydrophilic biofilter was examined for application in rural wastewater treatment in Korea. The intermittent trickling biofiter was developed for wastewater treatment of media and examined instantaneous wetting water and immersional wetting water. Melamin foam absorbed 120 times it's weight in water and maintained wetting status than other materials. These characteristics are improvement for application in rural areas showing large variance of amount of influent. The biofilter process was effective in treating organic pollutants; mean removal efficiencies of $BOD_5$ and TSS were above 80%. The average SS concentrations of effluent was showed below $10mg/L^{-1}$ and meet guidelines in special regions, however, the average concentration of $BOD_5$ was about $20mg/L^{-1}$. The removals of T-N and T-P were relatively less effective and removal efficiencies were below 40%. It might meet the guidelines for T-P because of low levels of influent T-P concentration. However, the T-N concentration were too high and further treatment is required. The effluent concentration of $NH_4-N$ showed a significant reduction rate about 43.8%, but part of $NH_4-N$ was transformed to $NO_2-N$ and $NO_3-N$ inside the biofilter through nitrification process. The effluent concentration of org-P was removed about 78.8% of influent concentration by filtration. Considering stable performance and effective removal of pollutant in wastewater, low maintenance, and cost-effectiveness, the hydrophilic biofilter system was thought to be an effective and feasible alternative for decentralized rural areas.

The series of experiments under the various conditions were carried out to evaluate the feasibility of dissolved air flotation (DAF) as an alternative of conventional gravity sedimentation (CGS) and to investigate the decrease of the loadings following to biological wastewater treatment processes in livestock wastewater system. On the basis of the experiment result between CGS and DAF processes, for the other water quality criteria as well as suspended solid the removal efficiency of DAF process was about 20~25 % better than CGS process on average. In addition, the particle removal efficiency of DAF process became higher in proportion as the increase of air to solid (A/S) ratio and the general wastewater treatment efficiency of DAF process was enough to meet the requirement of loading decrease to following biological process even at low A/S ratio range. Though DAF process is widely known as an solid separation unit, there was not the notable relationship between particle separation efficiency and several pollutant removal efficiencies like $COD_{Cr}$ and nutrients (T-N, T-P). Assume that the $COD_{Cr}$ was removed as the fraction of particle separation in this experiment, the removal efficiency of T-N and T-P were sensitive to removal efficiency of $COD_{Cr}$, especially.

Field experiment was performed from August 1996 to December 1999 to examine the performance of constructed wetland system for wastewater treatment in rural area. The constructed wetland system was installed in Konkuk University and the effluent from septic tank of school building was used as an influent to the treatment basin. The treatment basin was composed of sand bed with planted reed. From August 1996 to June 1998 the hydraulic loading rate was fixed with about 15.63cm/day and theoretical detention time was 1.38 days, and from July 1998 to December 1999 the hydraulic loading rate was about 6.25cm/day and theoretical detention time was 3.5days. It worked continuously even during winter time, and the sewage flowed without freezing even when average daily air temperature was below -1$0^{\circ}C$. Average removal rate of BOD , COD, and SS was about 70%, T-P removal rate was about 50.8% , and T-N removal rate was 23.9%. The reason for poor T-N removal might be due to high influent concentration and short retention times. At the later years BOD and COD removal rates were increased , and SS and T-P removal rates did not change significantly , but T-N removal rates were decreased. The effluent of the wetland system often effluent water quality standards for sewage treatment plant, therefore, further treatment would be required if the effluent need to be discharged to the public water. Wetland system involves relatively large land area and could be suitable for rural area. Therefore, utilization of reclaimed sewage for agricultural purpose or subsequent land treatment is recommended as a ultimate disposal of sewage for agricultural purpose or subsequent land treatment is recommended as a ultimate disposal of sewage in rural area.

본 연구는 축산분뇨 처리장(바이오가스 플랜트) 액비의 고도처리에 적합한 공정을 도출하기 위한 기초 연구이다. 액비를 고도처리하기 위하여 나노여과 및 역삼투(reverse osmosis) 공정을 각각 사용하였고, 전처리공정으로서 담체를 첨가하지 않은 MBR과 담체를 첨가한 MBR을 각각 적용하여 비교하였다. 액비의 질소는 주로 암모니아성 질소의 형태로 존재하였다. MBR의 운전에서 담체(biomedia) 유무에 따른 COD, T-N 및 T-P의 제거효율에서 큰 차이는 없었으나, 담체를 첨가한 MBR의 TMP는 담체를 첨가하지 않은 MBR에 비해 매우 서서히 증가하였다. 전처리 공정으로 담체를 첨가한 MBR 공정을 사용한 경우, NF에 의한 COD, T-N 및 T-P의 제거효율은 각각 99.8, 86.5% 및 99.8%이었으며, RO에 의한 제거효율은 각각 99.9, 86.8% 및 99.9%이었다. MBR과 NF/RO 공정을 이용하여 처리한 액비의 최종 수질은 분뇨처리장 방류수 수질기준과 비교하였을 때, COD와 T-P는 방류수 수질기준을 만족하였으나, T-N은 수질기준에 부적합하였다. 따라서 T-N에 대한 방류수 기준을 만족시키기 위해서는 MBR 조업 cycle의 조정 또는 나노여과/역삼투에 의한 2차 재처리 등의 개선이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

This research was carried out investigate the removed T-P, T-N and anion surfactants using Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete(ALC) in wastewater treatment system. Effects of pH, TDS on aqueous solution was measured. Specific area which measured by BET was $27.66m^2/g$. The phosphorous, nitrogen and anion surfactants removal efficiencies were examined by using artificial waste water(T-P : 66~73mg/L, T-N : 56~136mg/L and anion surfactants : 10~31mg/L). The results showed that the ALC was effective material as a adsorbent due to the structure and porosity. It was found that anion surfactants removed was 85~95%, phosphate removed was 92% and nitrogen removed was 90% in artificial wastewater. Agitation process was more effective than aeration process in that case of nitrogen removal system using ALC.

Wetland system is widely accepted as one of natural water purification systems around the world for nonpoint sources pollution control. Constructed wetlands have become a popular technology for treating contaminated surface and waste water. In this study, the field experiment to reduce nonpoint source pollution loadings from polluted stream waters using wetland system was performed from June 2002 to March 2004. Four wetlands were used and the size of each one was 0.8ha. Water of Dangjin stream flowing into Seokmun estuarine reservoir was pumped into wetlands. Inflow and hydraulic residence time of the system was 500 $m^3$/day∼1,500 $m^3$/day, 2∼5 days, respectively. After 2 year operation, plant-coverage of the wetlauds was about 70% from bare soil surface at initial stage . Average water quality of the influent was $BOD_5$ 4.17 mg/L, TSS 18.45 mg/L, T-N 4.32 mg/L, and T-P 0.30 mg/L. The average removal rate of $BOD_5$, TSS, T-N and T-P during the study period was 5.6%, 46.6%, 45.7%, and 54.8%, respectively. Organic ($BOD_5$) removal rate was low and the reason might be low influent concentration. Wetland removal rate of T-P was about 10% higher than T-N. Performance of the experimental system was compared with existing data base (NADB), and it was within the range of general system performance. Overall, the wetland system was found to be adequate for treating polluted water stream with stable removal efficiency even during the winter period. Most of the nonpoint source pollutions from watershed are transported by streams or ditches, and they could be controled by constructed wetland system before entering the lake or reservoir.
