분변토 처리의 기계화 및 자동화 공정 개발을 위하여, 본 연구에서는 슬러지 침출액을 이용한 지렁이 퇴비화 지표에 대하여 고찰하였다. 이 연구에서는 회분식 및 연속식 실험을 위하여 현장 하수 슬러지가 사용되었다. 슬러지 처리방버버에 따른, 발생되는 침출수의 이화학적 특성 변화는 거의 유사함을 나타내었다. 그러나, 산화환원전위, pH, 전기전도도, $NH_3-N$ 항목에서는 퇴비화 전후, 분명한 차이를 보였다. 또한, 지렁이 퇴비화 지표 설정에 가장 적합한 변수들은 ORP과EC임을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과들은 실제적으로 분변토 처리가 이루어지는 지렁이 퇴비하 기술로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구에서는 하수일차슬러지의 가용화 및 산발효를 위한 pilot scale 세정산발효공정의 운전 특성을 검토하였다. 하수일 차슬러지의 가용화 및 산발효 특성을 평가하기 위해 SRT, 세정수 및 운전온도를 변화시켜 실험을 수행하였다. 세정산발 효공정의 가용화율은 온도가 높을수록 증가하는 반면, 산생성율은 중온조건($35^{\circ}C$)이 고온조건($55^{\circ}C$)보다 높게 나타났다. VS 감량은 약 56%, 슬러지 부피감량은 약 93%까지 나타났다. 가용화측면에서 세정산발효공정의 최적운전조건은 pH 9, $35^{\circ}C$ 및 SRT 5일이 적합 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to find the effect of electron acceptors on the formation of granular sludge by using four different types of electron acceptors. The phosphorous uptake, denitrification, and sulfate reduction in anoxic modes were simultaneously occured because of the presence of the polyphosphate accumultating organism(PAO) that utilize nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptor in the anoxic zone. Denitrirying phosphorous removal bacteria(DPB) was enriched under anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic condition with a nitrate as an electron acceptor, and desulfating phosphorous removal bacteria(DSPB) was enriched under anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic condition with a sulfate as an electron acceptor. Polyphosphate accumulating organism(PAO) were enriched in the anaerobic/aerobic SBR. PAO took up acetate faster than DPB and DSPB during the aerobic phase. The sludge with nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptors grew as a granules which possessed high activity and good settleability. In the anaerobic/aerobic modes, typical floccular growth was observed. In the result of bench-scale experiment, simultaneous reactions of phosphorus uptake, denitrification and sulfate reduction were observed under anoxic condition with nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptors. These results demonstrated that the anaerobic/anoxic modes with nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptors played an important role in the formation of the sludge granulation.

Three typical biological solid wastes, namely, animal manure, garbage, and sewage sludge, were compared with regard to the composting process and the changes in microbial community structure. The effects of different bulking agents such as rice straw, vermiculite, sawdust, and waste paper were compared in manure compost. The differences in the microbial community were characterized by the quinone profile method. The highest mass reduction was found in garbage composting (56.8%), compared with manure and sludge (25% and 20.2%, respectively). A quinone content of $305.2\;{\mu}mol/kg$ was observed in the late stage of garbage composting, although the diversity index of the quinone profile was 9.7, lower than that in manure composting. The predominant quinone species was found to be MK-7, which corresponds to Gram-positive bacteria with a low G+C content, such as Bacillus. The predominance of MK-7 was especially found in the garbage and sludge composting process, and the increase in quinones with partially saturated long side-chains was shown in the late composting process of manure, which corresponded to the proliferation of Actinobacteria. The effects of different bulking agents on the composting process was much smaller than the effects of different raw materials. High organic matter content in the raw materials resulted in a higher microbial biomass and activity, which was connected to the high mass reduction rate.

하수슬러지 촤에 MnOx를 담지한 촉매를 사용하여 $NH_3$를 환원제로 하는 선택적 촉매 환원반응의 반응 메커니즘 분석을 수행하였다. XRD 분석 결과 활성 Mn phase는 $Mn_3O_4$인 것으로 여겨졌다. 또한 $150^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 흡착반응이 주요한 질소산화물 저감 메커니즘으로 작동하였으나, $100{\sim}150^{\circ}C$에서는 환원반응도 질소산화물 저감에 관여하는 것으로 보여졌다. 실험결과에 기초하여 활성 촤와 여기에 MnOx를 담지한 촤에서의 반응속도상수를 비교하였다. MnOx 담지촤는 높은 충돌계수와 낮은 활성화 에너지에 기인하여 높은 반응속도 상수와 높은 NOx 제거 효율을 나타내었다. 두 가지 촤 모두 본 실험 조건하에서 활성화 에너지는 상대적으로 낮았다(10~12 kJ/mol).

This study is to manufacture a titanium dioxide (TiO₂) photocatalyst by recycling sludge generated using titanium tetrachloride (TiCl₄) as a coagulant. Compared to general sewage, a TiCl₄ coagulant was applied to dyeing wastewater containing a large amount of non-degradable organic compounds to evaluate its performance. Then the generated sludge was dried and fired to prepare a photocatalyst (TFS). Scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and nitrogen oxide reduction experiments were conducted to analyze the surface properties and evaluate the photoactive ability of the prepared TFS. After using titanium tetrachloride (TiCl₄) as a coagulant in the dyeing wastewater, the water quality characteristics were measured at 84 mg/L of chemical oxygen demand (COD), 10 mg/L of T-N, and 0.9 mg/L of T-P to satisfy the discharge water quality standards. The surface properties of the TFS were investigated and the anatase crystal structure was observed. It was confirmed that the ratio of Ti and O, the main components of TiO₂, accounted for more than 90 %. As a result of the nitric oxide (NO) reduction experiment, 1.56 uMol of NO was reduced to confirm a removal rate of 20.60 %. This is judged to be a photocatalytic performance similar to that of the existing P-25. Therefore, by applying TiCl₄ to the dyeing wastewater, it is possible to solve the problems of the existing coagulant and to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide generated, using an eco-friendly sludge treatment method. In addition, it is believed that environmental and economic advantages can be obtained by manufacturing TiO₂ at an eco-friendly and lower cost than before.

This study was investigated to evaluate the effect of the sodium ion and pH on toxicity of dinitrophenol at high concentrations (0.41 to 0.54 mM), over a sodium concentration range of 0.1 mM to 107 mM and over a pH range of 5 to 9. The concentration of sodium ions in the activated sludge mixed liquor seemed to have very little effect on dinitrophenol toxicity. However, lack of sodium in the growth media resulted in a reduction of the dinitrophenol degradation rate by bacterial isolate from the activated sludge culture, which has been identified as Nocardia asteroides. Dinitrophenol inhibition was found to be strongly dependent on mixed liquor pH. The dinitrophenol degradation rate was highest in the pH range of 6.95 to 7.84; at pH 5.94 degradation of 75 mg/L dinitrophenol was significantly inhibited; at pH < 5.77, dinitrophenol degradation was completely inhibited after approximately 30% of the dinitrophenol was degraded.

Sludge transporting pipes in wastewater treatment plant are easy to be clogged with struvite when the digested sludge and dehydrated filtrate are transported through the pipes, which lowers the efficiency of sludge treatment system in a WWTP. pH is one of the most important factors in struvite formation, and carbon dioxide separated from biogas can be used to control pH and struvite formation. By controlling pH, the amount of dehydrating agent can be reduced by about 10%, which saves the budget for facility maintenance. As $CO_2$ is reused and dehydrating chemicals are saved, the approach can contribute to global warming gas reduction.

Terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol resulting form the weight-reduction process of polyester make trouble in the operation of activated sludge process. Also, polyester weight loss wastewater shows high pH, high organic strength and wide variation of organic loading. Therefore, this study was conducted in order to improve treatment efficiency by activated sludge process with Pseudomonas sp degrading components of polyester weight loss wastewater. The CO $D_{Mn}$ and BO $S_{5}$ of the waste wastewater were 560~3,000 mg/$\ell$ and 8000~3,000 mg/$\ell$, respectively. pH was 11.8~12.3. COD removal efficiency by activated sludge-coagulation process with Pseudomonas sp was 94.1~95.8% for 35 hr of hydraulic retention time. Total organic carbon removal efficiency was 97.1%. Ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid in the wastewater were completely degraded during 32 hr of hydraulic retention time.e.
