In the present paper, batch and semi-continuous settling characteristics of a binary calcium carbonate-water system were investigated. Using experimental data of batch settling characteristics, a graphical analysis for a semi-continuous thickening column was developed and compared with experimental results on the basis of Kynch theory, only where the feed velocity line was within the limits of Kynch theorem III. The analysis showed good agreement with experiments. Quite erroneous results, however, was observed for the analysis of a sludge region on the underloaded operation, which was considered due to the deviation from the limits of theory.

Microalgae are primary producers of aquatic ecosystems, securing biodiversity and health of the ecosystem and contributing to reducing the impact of climate change through carbon dioxide fixation. Also, they are useful biomass that can be used as biological resources for producing valuable industrial products. However, harvesting process, which is the separation of microalgal biomass from mixed liquor, is an important bottleneck in use of valorization of microalgae as a bioresource accounting for 20 to 30% of the total production cost. This study investigates the applicability of sewage sludge-derived extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) as bioflucculant for harvesting microalgae. We compared the flocculation characteristics of microalgae using EPSs extracted from sewage sludge by three methods. The flocculation efficiency of microalgae is closely related to the carbohydrate and protein concentrations of EPS. Heat-extracted EPS contains the highest carbohydrate and protein concentrations and can be a best-suited bioflocculant for microalgae recovery with 87.2% flocculation efficiency. Injection of bioflocculant improved the flocculation efficiency of all three different algal strains, Chlorella Vulgaris, Chlamydomonas Asymmetrica, Scenedesmus sp., however the improvement was more significant when it was used for flocculation of Chlamydomonas Asymmetrica with flagella.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to reduce odor complaints by identifying problems with odor management at the site of the water regeneration center and researching odor management methods. Due to the high population density of Korea, sewage treatment facilities are adjacent to residential and industrial areas. According to previous studies, the main malodor-emitting facilities of sewage treatment facilities were preliminary treatment facilities (2,220 times), sedimentation basins (4,628 times), and sludge treatment facilities (9,616 times). Research design, data and methodology: Compound malodors and designated malodor-producing substances were collected from five site boundaries of the water regeneration center and analyzed according to the official methods to test malodor, and a total of two times (August and September 2020) were conducted. Results: As a result of the measurement, in the green area in front of the center office, compound malodors were detected at a maximum of 8 times and at least 3 times during the dawn time. As for the designated malodor-producing substances, 0.1ppm of ammonia was detected in the green area in front of the center office and the park golf course. This is within 15 times the maximum allowable emission level of compound malodors and within 1ppm of the maximum allowable emission level of ammonia. Conclusions: Even if the dilution rate of the compound malodors did not exceed the maximum allowable emission level, the odor could be recognized, and more research is needed in the future to establish effective reduction measures according to the subjective and individual and seasonal odor characteristics.

본 논문은 완전 혼화조를 이용한 폐수처리 공정의 응집특성에 대한 연구를 목적으로 한다. 완전 혼화조 시스템은 유체 저장조, 임펠러가 장착된 3단의 혼화 및 응집부, 응집보조제 및 응집제 주입부, 응집 침전조 그리고 제어부로 구성된다. 실험용 폐수는 터널 공사현장에서 폐수 슬러지를 수거하여 약 1,000NTU의 탁도를 갖도록 만들었다. 응집보조제의 주입량이 증가함에 따라 약 99% 정도까지 탁도 제거율이 증가하였으며, 응집제의 주입량이 일정한 범위 이상으로 증가하면 탁도 제거율이 감소하는 것을 알 수 있다.

A new treatment system for animal waste water has been developed as an alternative to the activated sludge process. It consists of two treatments; one is operated with 7 tanks, and the other is soil and plant cultivation bed. Aerobic microorganisms are added to the influent water in the tanks where the water is aerated so that the microbes utilize the pollutants, while sedimentation removes the indigestible solids. In the secondary treatment the water, which has already received a primary treatment, is filtered through soil where it also receives treatment by soil organisms. In addition there is transpiration of water and absorption of minerals by plants. In the primary treatment BOD, SS, coliforms (E. coli), TP and total bacteria were removed 79-99%, but COD and TN were removed only 58% and 36%, respectively. In the secondary treatment removal of nutrients proceeded further, and 93-99% of pollutants were removed. The treated waters met the quality standard of discharge water in Japan except for TN, which was in too great a concentration to meet discharge standards. This problem requires further study.

A rotating activated bacillus contactor (RABC) process with a series of aerobic reactors was tested in pilot scale to treat digested liquid from an anaerobic digester treating swine wastewater and sewage sludge. The influent (digested liquid) for the RABC process showed C/N ratios less than 2 as a typical feature of effluent from anaerobic digesters. The pilot process, which consists of three 3 RABC reactors, four aerobic tanks and a sedimentation tank, was operated for 210 days with a hydraulic retention time of 20 days without pH and temperature control. Since the Bacillus-enriched aerobic reactors shows high efficiencies of nitrogen removal at low DO levels less than 1.0 mg/L, they were operated at reduced aeration intensities. With relatively low concentrations of organics in comparison with nitrogen concentrations, the RABC process tested in this study showed stable and high nitrogen and organics removal efficiencies over 80%. The nitrogen removal process tested in this study was proven to be an effective and operation-cost saving (lower aeration) method to remove nitrogen without adding external carbon sources to meet the optimum C/N ratio.

직장이나 가정의 하수를 처리하기 위하여 배수구를 이용할 수 있다. 본 실험에서는 침전처리를 하지 않은 폐수를 반송슬럿지가 없는 구에서 처리할 경우 유기물 처리를 조사하였다. 유기물 처리효율은 온도에 영향을 받고 있으며 16$^{\circ}C$이상에서는 효율이 온도상승에 따라 증가하나 16$^{\circ}C$이하에서는 온도변화에 따른 효율의 차이는 크게 나타나지 않았다.

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.

In this research, heavy metals and T-P removal characteristics of plated wastewater are derived using BPC(Break Point Chlorination) process. AA sedimentation pond outflow(Influence) was evaluated for the removal efficiency of heavy metal(Ni) and T-P at a reaction time of 25 minutes by NaOCl input volume(9, 11, 13 and 15 mL). In the case, the higher the NaOCl input volumes, the higher the ORP values were maintained and the higher the removal efficiency tended to be. On the other hand, T-P was judged to have a low relationship between the ORP value and the removal efficiency. In addition, the efficiency of removal heavy metals and T-P in the plated wastewater by injecting 10 mL, 15 mL, 20 mL and 25 mL NaOCl, increased as the amount of NaOCl injected increased, the amount of NaOH input for pH increased. It was found that suspended solid in effluence also increased. It was also observed that the color of the plating wastewater changed from yellowish green to green to charcoal gray to black as the amount of NaOCl injected increased. Treatment characteristics of the reaction time, the longer the reaction time with the substance to be treated after the input of NaOCl, the more the heavy metal removal efficiency tended to increase. Through XRF analysis of the sludge, the constituents in the sludge such as NaCNO, CNCl, Na₃PO₄, CrO₄, 2Na₂CrO₄ and 2NaNO₃ will be analyzed in detail, and the mechanisms of the reaction between the plated wastewater and the complex compound will be elucidated.
