생물학적 처리공정의 이차침전지의 고액분리 효율 증대는 전체 시스템 운전의 효율를 증대시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 하수처리장 방류수 SS는 대부분 유기물질로 구성되어 있어 이차침전지 방류수에서 SS성분을 낮추기 위해서는 이 성분을 구성하는 미세 SS성분을 자체 응집(self flocculation)을 통해서 그 크기와 무게를 증대시켜 이들의 침전을 통해서 제거할 수 있다, 이에 이차침전지내에 이중정류벽 설치를 통한 이차침전지 유출수 부유물질 (SS) 농도 감소를 확인하였고, 유입수의 일간 변화에 의해 하수가 급격히 증가할 경우 유량변동에 따른 충격부하에 의한 유출 부유물질이 안정적으로 처리되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 장방향 이차침전지 부유물질 저감을 위해 자체응집을 시킬 수 있는 시설물의 설치가 필요하다.

Sedimentation tanks are essential structures to filter the suspended sediments in the inlet flow which are constructed at the inlet of the basins forked from rivers and irrigation canals. The larger the constructed tank, the better the sedimentation process is conducted. However, the construction and dredging costs increase. In this regard, improving the performance and sedimentation efficiency seem necessary by alternative methods. One of these effective methods is using baffle plates. Most of the studies carried out in this field are on the use of these baffles in the primary and secondary sedimentation tanks. Hence, this study is carrier out with the objective of increasing the retention efficiency in the irrigation sedimentation tanks using baffles. To reach this goal, the experiments were carried out in a flume with length 8 meters, width 0.3 meters, and height 0.5 meters, considering a sedimentation tanks with a length of 3 meters, in three different inlet concentration, three flow rates and three Froude numbers. The baffles were mounted at the bottom of the tank and the effects of the angle, height and position in the tanks were investigated. The results showed that on average, employing the baffles increased the sedimentation efficiency 5 to 6% and the highest value was obtained for angle 60 with respect to the flow direction. According to the results of this study, the most favorable height and position of these baffles were obtained to be in 40% of the depth of the flow and 50% of the length of the sedimentation tank, respectively. Also, by increasing the number of baffles, the sedimentation efficiency decreased. Regarding the sedimentation regions in this case, more than 80% of the settled sediments were observed in the middle of the tank measured from the inlet.

There is a need to improve the efficiency of the existing sanitary treatment facilities, because the effluent standard becomes more stricter and septic sludge increased. Thus, operating processes of sanitary treatment system in M city changed with installation of additional facilities. Process modifications were as follows: Dilution water was added to the next process after primary aeration tank. Some secondary sedimentation sludge was recycled to primary aerator so that most of the organics were stabilized in primary aeration tank under automatic control of dissolved oxygen. The line of effluent from dewatering process flowing to the activated sludge tank was changed to the primary aerator. The primary sedimentation sludge line was linked to a thickener. Polymer was added to the activated sludge tank. The effluent of primary aerator and aerobic digester was recycled from the 5th to the 1st sector. As consequencies of above process modifications, the improvement of removal efficiency was achieved as BOD 54%, COD 42%, SS 61%, T-N 39%, and T-P 12%, respectively.

Because of the intensified environmental problems such as climate change and resource depletion, sewage treatment technology focused on energy management has recently attracted attention. The conversion of primary sludge from the primary sedimentation tank and excessive sludge from the secondary sedimentation tank into biogas is the key to energy-positive sewage treatment. In particular, the primary sedimentation tanks recover enriched biodegradable organic matter and anaerobic digestion process produces methane from the organic wastes for energy production. Such technologies for minimizing oxygen demand are leading the innovation regarding sewage treatment plants. However, sewage treatment facilities in Korea lack core technology and operational know-how. Actually, the energy potential of sewage is higher than sewage treatment energy consumption in the sewage treatment, but current processes are not adequately efficient in energy recovery. To improve this, it is possible to apply chemically enhanced primary treatment (CEPT), high-rate activated sludge (HRAS), and anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) to the primary sedimentation tank. To maximize the methane production of sewage treatment plants, organic wastes such as food waste and livestock manure can be digested. Additionally, mechanical pretreatment, thermal hydrolysis, and chemical pretreatment would enhance the methane conversion of organic waste. Power generation systems based on internal combustion engines are susceptible to heat source losses, requiring breakthrough energy conversion systems such as fuel cells. To realize the energy positive sewage treatment plant, primary organic matter recovery from sewage, biogas pretreatment, and co-digestion should be optimized in the energy management system based on the knowledge-based operation.

The dissolved air at the bottom layer of the deep aeration tank transforms into fine gas bubbles within the MLSS (Mixed Liquor Suspended Solid) floc when exposed to the atmosphere. MLSS floc flotation occurs when MLSS from the deep aeration tank enters the secondary clarifier for solid-liquid separation, as dissolved air becomes fine air within the MLSS floc. The floated MLSS floc causes a high SS (Suspended Solid) concentration in the secondary effluent. The fine air bubbles within the MLSS floc must be removed to achieve stable sedimentation in the secondary clarifier. Fine bubbles within the MLSS floc can be removed by air sparging. The settleability of MLSS was measured by sludge volume indexes (SVIs) after air sparging MLSS taken at the end of the deep aeration tank. MLSS settling tests were performed at MLSS heights of 200, 300, 400, and 500 mm, and compressed air was fed at the bottom of the settling column with air flow rates of 100, 300, and 500 ml/min at each MLSS height, respectively. Also, at each height and air flow rate, air was sparged for 3, 5, and 7 minutes, respectively. SVI was determined for each height, air flow rate, and sparging time, respectively. Experimental results showed that a 300 mm MLSS height, 300 ml/min air flow rate, and 3 minutes of sparging time were the least conditions to achieve less than 120 ml/g of SVI, which was the criterion for good MLSS settling in the secondary clarifier.

While the existing sewage treatment facilities are mainly being operated by biological processes, winter-time efficiency improvement and additional phosphorus treatment equipment using chemicals have been required to follow the effluent criteria of TP (0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 mg/L for the zone of I, II and III respectively) and $BOD_5$ (5.0 mg/L) which is intensified from 2012 in Republic of Korea. We made an investigation into actual condition of biological treatment process and calculated the optimal chemical input amount by jar test of supernatant of secondary sedimentation tank to evaluate the process improvement for the intensified criteria. Ejector BAF system for removing TP, $BOD_5$ of sewage effluent was suggested. The concentration of TP from biological process is 0.3-0.8 mg/L, and the input amount of optimal chemical coagulant was above Al/P ratio of 3(1.9 mg/L as Al) to meet the criteria of TP for secondary treatment effluent. From the results of this experiment, the best Al/P ratio for Ejector BAF system was about Al/P ratio of 1, and LV of BAF process for intensified criteria of $BOD_5$ and TP was below 1.97m/hr.

본 연구의 목적은 이차침전조의 구조개선을 통해 탈수여액 처리와 생물학적 처리용량 확보의 가능성을 평가하는데 있다. 이에 따른 연구의 절차로는 탈수여액 내 함유된 polymer가 슬러지 침전에 미치는 영향을 column test를 통해 평가하였으며, 회분식 실험과 연속식 처리공정운전을 통해 탈수여액의 처리 특성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 슬러지 침강속도는 polymer 주입율이 증가할 수 록 증가하는 경향을 나타냈으며, 상징수의 SS 농도는 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 탈수여액의 처리 특성은 이차침전조 내통 길이가 길수록 탈수여액 내 함유된 TSS 및 TBOD5의 제거효율이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 연속식 처리공정 적용 결과는 탈수여액 주입위치를 각각 무산소조와 이차침전조에 주입한 경우를 비교하였을 때 두 조건에서 모두 안정적인 방류수질을 보였다. 따라서 이차침전조의 구조개선을 통해 탈수여액의 효율적인 처리가 가능 할 것으로 판단되며, 소규모 하수처리장의 경우 처리용량 부족 문제를 해결할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서 고형침전물이 누적되어 쌓이는 것을 효과적으로 부유시키고 혼합하여 미세한 공기방울이 액비에 접촉함으로서 발효촉진을 도모하고자 폭기식 2류체 제트노즐 설계조건 구명시험을 실시하여 1차 노즐과 2차 노즐 구경비 설정 및 1차 노즐에서의 액체의 적정 유속을 설정하고, CFD 이용 유동해석에 의한 노즐 분사구 위치를 설정하였다. 이 결과를 토대로 가축분뇨 액비저장조 침전물 교반장치를 제작하여 농가에 많이 보급되고 있는 200 ton 규모의 액비저장조에 설치하여 침전물 교반 성능을 평가한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 침전물 교반기의 설계조건 구명을 위해 2류체 노즐을 공시하여 시험한 결과 1차 노즐과 2차 노즐의 구경비를 1:2로 한 상태에서 1차 노즐의 유속을 12.3 m/s 이상으로 하여야 기체 기포의 미세화가 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 2. 컴퓨터유동해석을 한 결과 노즐의 설치간격을 같게 하는 것이 노즐당 담당부피를 같게 설치하는 것보다 효율적인 것으로 분석되었다. 3. 설계요인 시험과 유동해석을 토대로 4개의 노즐이 일자형 관에 설치된 침전물교반 장치를 제작 200톤 저장조에 설치 가동시험을 실시하였다. 먼저, 전체 평균 TS와 VS가 각각 23.4 g/L, 15.5 g/L인데 반하여, 교반 전 40 cm 이상 높이의 TS 및 VS가 평균 21.1 g/L, 13.3 g/L으로 교반기를 가동하지 않는 경우는 많은 고형물이 바닥에 가라앉아 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한, 가동 후 45분이 경과한 후에는 TS와 VS 모두 전체 평균과 동일한 값을 나타내고 있어 침전물들이 충분히 부유되어 혼합됨을 확인할 수 있다. 액체제트 분사교반 45 분후에 평균 23.5 g/L, 15.5 g/L로, 액체-기체 2류체 노즐 사용시 23.6 g/L, 14.9 g/L로 증가한 것은 교반 전에 바닥에 침전되어 있던 고형물들을 부유시켜 교반 혼합하는 것이 가능한 것으로 판단되었으며, 호기발효를 고려하지 않은 균일도 측면에서는 액체제트를 사용한 것이 보다 균일한 것으로 나타났다. 4. 침전물 교반기의 가동주기를 알아보기 위해 가축분뇨의 교반을 중지하였을 때 2시간 후에도 0.4 m 높이에서 TS 및 VS가 증가하고 있어 교반정지 간격을 2시간으로 주어도 교반기 운영에는 큰 지장이 없을 것으로 판단된다.
