A demonstrative operation of a membrane system with its caparity of 3,600m$^3$/d was carried out using reservoir water as raw water for the application of membrane filtration system to drinking water treatment. The operation was undertaken at a constant flux of 0.9 m$^3$/m$^2$/d for three months. Backwashing with NaClO of 3 ppm was allowed for 30 seconds every 20 minutes of filtration. Physical cleaning was introduced after 69 times of filtration/backwashing cycle with air-scrubbing and backwashing for 1 minute, and flushing for 2 minutes. In this study, water treatment performance was investigated compared with the existing rapid sand filtration process. The membrane system was operated with no significant problems during the test period. Higher water quality was obtained in the membrane filtration than in the rapid sand filtration in terms of particulate matters such as turbidity and microbes. Although the finished water of the membrane filtration contained slightly higher concentration in dissolved matters than that of the conventional one, it met the drinking water standard. The demonstrative operation showed that membrane filtration has a reliability in drinking water treatment. Researches should be needed on cost analysis through long-term operation and optimization of operation condition for further application.

복류수와 천변여과지 그리고 점차 여과거리가 짧아지고 있는 우리나라의 강변/하상여과 등이 가지는 미량오염물에 대한 저항능력을 평가하기 위하여 5 m 길이의 모래칼럼을 이용한 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 우리나라 하상의 토양은 유기물 함량이 상당하여 염소이온의 토양표면 흡착이 비교적 활발함 알 수 있었다. 페놀은 칼럼의 여과수에서 검출되지 않았고, 1,4-다이옥산과 다이아지논은 하상토양과 흡착반응을 일으키면서 이동하며, 2.5 m의 이동과정에서 1,4-다이옥산의 첨두농도는 유입농도의 약 40%로 그 농도가 감소하였고, 다이아지논의 첨두농도는 약 60%로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 실규모 설비에서는 여과거리가 5 m 보다 더 길기 때문에 첨두농도의 감소효과는 상당히 클 것으로 기대되었다.

This study compares the performance of the filters with various media in pretreatment of seawater desalination by reverse osmosis. For this purpose, Masan bay seawater is used as raw water. The filter performance is evaluated by the filtrate quality and the head loss development. Five media is selected in this study: anthracite, $Filtralite^{(R)}$, sand, Pumice, $AFM^{(R)}$. These media are used in combination for dual media filter and alone for mono media filter. The comparison results show that NC0.8-1.6 is the best $Filtralite^{(R)}$. The dual media filter of NC0.8-1.6 and sand outperformed other filters in particle removal. The dual media filter of anthracite and sand showed good performance in organic removal. The mono media filter of Pumice produced the similar filtrate quality as the mono media filter of sand although the effective size of Pumice is considerably greater than that of sand. Due to big size, head loss development is maintained slow in the filtration of Pumice.

본 연구에서는 겨울철 수온강하, 여름철 우천시 표류수 중의 고탁도 물질 및 봄, 가을철의 조류성장 시기 등을 고려하여 기존의 급속모래여과시스템을 이단 이층 복합여과시스템으로 개량하는 기술을 개발하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 본 기술은 기존 여과지의 개량 또는 신설 여과지 설계시 또 다른 부지의 확장 없이 기존 모래여과지를 대체하는 기술로서 하부집수장치 상부에 모래 + 활성탄 층을 두고 활성탄 층 상부에 일정한 간격의 역세 팽창층을 두고 전 처리의 개념으로 중간집수장치 위에 모래층을 두는 이단 이층 복합여과시스템을 말한다. 본 연구에서는 이단이층 복합여과시스템을 경기도 S 정수장에 소규모 파일롯 플랜트를 설치하였으며, 탁도는 INTU 이하로 안정하게 유지되었고, TOC, THMFP, HAAFP는 약 90%정도 제거되어 S정수장에 비해 약 2배 정도 높았으며, 이는 본 시스템의 하단에 충전된 활성탄층에서의 흡착 및 생물분해 효과에 기인된 것으로 판단된다.

Slow sand filtrations have been widely used for water treatment in small communities, however their capacity is often limited by high turbidity in the raw water. For this reason, several pre-treatment facilities were required for a slow sand filter. Turbidity removal from the highly turbid raw water was investigated in roughing filters as a pre-treatment process. The roughing filters followed by rapid mixing tank were operated in the form of a contact filtration. In several jar tests, the predetermined optimum aluminium sulfate (alum) doses for turbid water of 30 and 120NTU were 30 and 50mg/L, respectively. At the optimum alum dose, physically optimum parameters including G value of $220sec^{-1}$ and rapid mixing time of 3 minutes were applied to the contact filtration system. Without addition of alum, the filtrate turbidity from the roughing filters, packed respectively with different media such as sand, porous diatomite ball and gravel, was in the range of 5~30NTU at filtration velocities of 30 and 50m/day. However, the application of a contact filtration to roughing filters showed stably lower filtrate turbidity below 1.0NTU at filtration velocity of 30 m/day. Although the filtration velocity increased to 50m/day, filtrate turbidity was still below 1.0NTU in both single and double layer roughing filters. At influent turbidity of 120NTU, the filtrate turbidity was over 5 NTU in the triple layer roughing filter, which shortened the filter run time. The flocs larger than $10{\mu}m$, formed in the rapid mixing tank, were almost captured through the roughing filter bed, while the almost flocs smaller than $10{\mu}m$ remained in filtrate.

Slow sand filtration processes amended with 5 and 10cm GAC layers at top was compared to same process at bottom in a pilot study for humic substances removal. In case of 5cm GAC layer, the process amended at bottom was superior to the process at top in DOC and UV254nm removal and same trends were observed in case of 10cm GAC layer. Head loss developments of the process GAC at bottom were higher than the process GAC at top so that maintenance of the process GAC at top is easier than the process GAC at bottom.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the efficiency of coagulants dose after backwashing. The turbidity of initial effluent was high after backwashing in the rapid sand filtration and the high turbidity was almost removed by coagulants dose into filter-sand after backwashing. It was found that the turbidity of initial effluent was well removed by all kinds of the coagulants used in this study. When filtration was performed input water with differentiated pH's, the turbidity of effluent was low at the range of pH 5 - pH 7. But the removal was not good about over pH 9. This result was considered into the existence forms of aluminium, $Al(OH)^{2+}\;and\;{Al(OH)_2}^+$ at pH 5. Cryptosporidiums of effluent were 4/ml for ten minutes immediately after back washing and 3/ml until sixty minutes. However, the case of coagulant dose after backwashing, Cryptosporidiums of effluent were 0.5/ml for ten minutes with no detection after twenty minutes.

The industrial development of large scale deep bed filters has been a very important step in the process of drinking water production and more recently in the tertiary treatment of wastewater. The target of deep bed filtration is the retention is the retention of small particles generally smaller than 30 microns at relatively small concentration, generally less than 30 mg/l from natural water (surface water or aquifers) or secondary treated wastewater. The relation between the retention efficiency and the characteristics of the particles has been extensively studied experimentally and through different models of retention. During the last years the development of new technologies (fiber filter, membrane modules) lead to more intensive processes compared to conventional sand filtration. Fiber filters can combine intensification with a decrease in specific energy needed however they cannot be operated under gravity like sand filters. Membrane filters (UF or MF) are much more intensive and efficient than sand filters. The specific energy needed is not so high (about $0.1Kwh/M^3$) but is higher than sand or fiber filter. A Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) has to be made for a complete comparison between these technologies taking in account that the efficiency of particle retention obtained by membrane filters is unique.

In the drinking water treatment, the aesthetic and color problem are caused by the manganese which is occurring and present in the surface, lake and ground water. The most common treatment processes for removing manganese are known for oxidation followed by filtration. In this study, the manganese sand process was used for removing manganese with river bank filtrate as a source. In the manganese sand process, the residual chlorine and pH are important factors on the continuous manganese oxidation. In addition, space velocity (SV) and alum dosage are play a role of manganese removal. Even though manganese removal increased with increasing chlorine concentration, the control of residual chlorine is actually difficult in this process As the results of tests, the residual chlorine concentration as well as manganese removal were effectively achieved at pH 7.5. The optimum attached manganese concentration on manganese sand was confirmed to 0.3mg/L by the experimental result of a typical sand converting to manganese sand.

본 연구에서는 박테리아 제거를 위한 완속모래여과에서 탄소나노튜브(Carbon Nanotube, CNT)의 적용성을 검토하기 위해서 전자현미경 분석 및 칼럼 실험을 수행하였다. CNT의 형태적 특성을 분석하기 위하여, 주사전자현미경으로 분석한 결과 CNT는 박테리아 부착이 용이한 섬유형태로 응집되어 있었다. CNT의 충진 두께, pH, 이온강도를 달리하며 칼럼 실험을 수행하였다. CNT의 충진 두께가 1 cm, 3 cm, 5 cm로 증가할수록 박테리아 제거율이 44.15%에서 99.95%로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, pH가 5.5에서 8.5로 증가할 경우 정전기적 반발력에 의해 박테리아 제거율이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이온강도를 0 mM에서 50 mM로 증가하여 칼럼 실험을 수행한 경우 박테리아 제거율이 97.25%에서 70.90%로 감소하였다. 본 연구를 통해 CNT가 오염된 물에 함유되어 있는 박테리아를 처리하는 완속모래여과에 적용 가능한 것으로 나타났다.
