Hydrodynamic study of Activated Sludge Process (ASP) is important to optimize the reactor performance and detect anomalies in the system. Residence time distribution (RTD) study has been performed using LiCl as tracer on a pilot scale aeration tank (AT) and ASP, treating the pulp and paper mill effluent. The hydraulic performance and treatment efficiency of the AT and ASP at different operating parameters like residence time, recycle rate was investigated. Flow anomalies were identified and based on the experimental data empirical models was suggested to interpret the hydrodynamics of the reactors using compartment modelling technique. The analysis of the RTD curves and the compartment models indicated increase in back-mixing ratio as the mean hydraulic retention time (MHRT) of the tank was increased. Bypassing stream was observed at lower MHRT. The fraction of dead zone in the tank increased by approximate 20-25% with increase in recycle rate. The fraction of the stagnant zone was found well below 5% for all performed experiments, which was under experimental error. The substrate removal of 91% for Chemical oxygen demand and 96% for Biochemical oxygen demand were observed for the ASP working at a hydraulic mean residence time 39 h MRT with a 20% recycling of activated sludge.

The performance of EF (electroflotation) on the thickening of activated sludge were investigated using laboratory scale batch flotation reactor. In this paper, the effects of parameters such as electrode material, NaCl dosage, initial sludge concentration and electrode distance were examined. The results showed that the performance for sludge thickening of the five electrodes lay in: Pt/Ti > Ru/Ti > Ir/Ti > Ti mesh > Ti plate. The more NaCl dosage was high, the more sludge was thickened and the shorter thickening time was obtained. However, considering the final thickening time and sludge concentration, optimum NaCl dosage was 0.5 g/L. Thickening time and sludge concentration was not affected by electrode distance. In DAF (dissolved air flotation) system, optimum recycle ratio was 40% and thickening performance was lower than that of the EF.

The pond sludge from golf course which is a place of business waste that recycling is necessary. But, Most pond sludge was controlled by incineration and reclamation. Also, There are no research about pond sludge from waste point of view. The purpose of this study was focusing on recycling of pond sludge to make block of vegetation. In this study, in order to recycle the pond sludge with block of vegetation from mixed additive that analyzed characteristics of strength from compaction test and shear strength test.

UASB-ABF (Up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket-aerated bio-filter) 시스템을 이용한 하수의 혐기성처리 방법에서 질소와 인을 제거하는 공법에 대하여 연구하였다. 160일간의 UASB-ABF 시스템을 운영한 결과 유출수 반송을 통하여 TCOD뿐만 아니라, TN과 TP를 효율적으로 제거할 수 있었다. 무반송의 경우 UASB 반응조에서 유기물 제거효율은 64%에 머물었으나, 반송률 120%, 180%, 240%로 증가한 결과 각각 92%, 95%, 96%로 향상되었다. 반송률 180% 이상에서는 유기물 제거효율 증가폭은 크지 않았다. ABF 유출수 반송으로 TN 제거효율이 크게 향상되었다. TN 제거효율은 무반송 조건일 때 18%에서 82%로 향상되었으며, UASB에서 지속적인 유기물질 제거로 인하여 ABF에서 질산화효율은 안정적으로 95% 이상으로 타나났다. ABF 유출수 반송으로 TP 및 $PO{_4}^{3-}$-P 제거효율이 모두 향상되었다. TP의 경우 무반송에서는 거의 제거되지 않았으나, 반송률이 120%, 180%, 240%에서는 각각 51%, 63%, 71%로 향상되었고, 주로 UASB에서 제거되었다.

본 논문에서는 정수슬러지의 고함수비 문제를 해결하고 재활용을 촉진하기 위해 정수슬러지와 화강풍화토를 다양한 배합비로 혼합하여 슬러지혼합토(sludge mixture)를 제작하고, 다양한 실내 시험을 통해 슬러지혼합토의 물리적 특성과 불포화 특성을 분석하였다. 시험 결과, 정수슬러지 함량이 증가함에 따라 동일한 모관흡수력에 대응하는 체적 함수비는 증가하였다. 또한 정수슬러지 함량 또는 세립분 함량이 증가함에 따라 공기함입치는 0.9kPa에서 2.4kPa로 증가하였다. 슬러지혼합토의 포화투수계수 값과 함수특성곡선의 결과를 활용하여 강우 시 침투해석을 수행하는데 있어서 중요한 인자인 불포화 투수함수를 산정하였다.

This study has been conducted for the purpose to develop a new technology using the carbonization process for establishing the resources circulation system for sewage sludge and enabling the sludge amount and volume to be reduced sanitarily and safely. Besides, it is thought that the effective value of the carbonized sludge is much greater even though there is any limitation to its applicable fields or use since it is not a product that is intentionally produced like any existing materials for conventional uses.

The sludge oils were produced necessarily in the ships operation, so that it will be the best way to manage the sludge oils inside ship itself from a viewpoint of the prevention of marine oil pollution from ship. The present study deal with the ultrasonic breaking systems which recycle the sludge oil from ships into usable oil to be burnt. The first place, experimental studies were carried out to investigate the homogenizing effect of the marine oils by repeated vibration of ultrasonic transducer. Variation of the properties(viscosity, specific gravity and pH) and the matrix structures for the environment of various marine oils were interpreted to analyze the breaking, dispersion effects by cavity. The experimental results can be useful to the development of sludge oil disposing systems.

Stainless steel sludge is generated as a waste in the grinding process, and the possibility of recycling stainless steel is considered here. In this study, we considered the possibility of using the stainless steel sludge as metal powder for MIM or raw material for metal foam. For the MIM process, the metal powder will need some improvement, and flotation and spheroidizing processes of the sludge are necessary. For fabrication of the metal foam, untreated sludge can be used, and steel foam about 90% porosity is produced.
