In recent years increasing production and disposal of wastewater have caused an accelerated eutrophication of receiving waters. Therefore, in order to alleviate the detrimental impact of wastewater discharge, there is an increasing demand for removing the main nutrients, nitrogen and phosphorus, as well as the organic content of the waste water prior to disposal. This is effectively achieved by extended conventional treatment technology. However, the working expenses and energy requirements of such advanced treatment systems are rather high. So in a sparsely populated rural community is required development of wastewater treatment system combined with the regional characteristics. In this study, the systems are planted with Reeds and Amaryllis In A.C and estimated purification potential of system. The results obtained are as follows. BOD removal rate is 20% in the early stage, the last removal rate is 35% in A.C process and is 65% in Amaryllis+A.C process and is 50% in Reed+A.C process. T-N removal rate by Amaryllis is average 2.6g/$m^3$ㆍd, T-N removal rate by Reed is average 1.76g/$m^3$ㆍd. T-P removal rate by Amaryllis is average 0.27g/$m^3$ㆍd, T-P removal rate by Reed is average 0.25g/$m^3$ㆍd. BOD removal rate constant with retention time is 1.4494(1/d), T-N removal rate constant is 0.5428(1/d), T-P removal rate constant is 0.5287(1/d).

The aims of this study is to examine the effects of the changes in HRT(Hydraulic Retention Time) and media charge in a water-mill, among other operation factors, on the nitrogen and phosphorus removal in order to use up-flow anaerobic reactors, anoxic reactors and water-mill aerobic reactors for sewage treatment. The extension of HRT improved the nitrogen removal efficiency, however the removal pattern was constant regardless of HRT. The removal of phosphorus was constant (80%-90%) regardless of the change in HRT. The removal rate with change in influx load varied such that at the OLR (Organic Load Rate) of 1-3 kg/d, the T-N removal efficiency was 80.7%-88.9% and the T-P removal efficiency was 82.9%-89.3% while at the NLR (Nitrogen Loading Rate) of 0.108-0.156 kg/d the removal efficiencies were 80.7-88.9% (T-N) and 82.9-89.3% (T-P). The analyses of the nitrogen and phosphorous removal characteristics with the C/N and C/P ratio showed that the mean T-N removal rate was 88% at the C/N ratio of 1.2-2.6, and that the mean T-P removal rate was 86% at the C/P ratio of 7.2-14.1. Also, the analysis of nitrogen and phosphorous removal characteristics were analyzed in relation to media charge. The comparison between with and without media charge in the water-mill showed that while the nitrogen removal efficiencies were 86-94% and 85-89% respectively, the difference of phosphorous removal efficiencies were between the two conditions was not significant, thus it suggested that the media charge has less effect on the removal efficiency of phosphorous compared to that of nitrogen.

The purpose of this study is to examine the purification efficiency of the septic tank method which has been applied by the most of Korean livestock farms, in terms of anaerobic and aerobic treatment. Except several days in summer, BOD of effluent shows 1,500 -3,000 ppm by anaerobic process. In most cases , it exceeds according to the seasons show an increase by decrease of temperature. The removal effect on T-N is hardly found. The suspended solids contents of effluent are reduced to the level of 50-90%. Although BOD contents of effluent are kept high in the beginning, the removal rate of BOD shows 80 percent in the latter half by the aerobic treatment . The removal efficiency of total nitrogen does not appear through the experimental period, but the contents of T-N are not increased in the aerobic process unlike in the anaerobic process. The total phosphorous contents in effluent keep a constant level of 14 mg/L in average. The removal rate of phosphorous shows 91 percent i the last stage.

Design data for COD and nitrogen removal from wastewater were collected from Pilot's Multi-stage Bio-reactor. Hyraulic conditions and pollutant loadings were varied in order to optimize the biological and operational parameters. Pilot's experimental results summarize as followings. 1. T-N removal efficiency in the organic volumetric loading 0.2 kgCOD/m$^{3}$·d was obtained as maxium of 85% at internal recycle ratio 2.5 and in more ratio than this it was decreased. Organic removal efficiency was about 91% under the overall experimental conditions and not influenced by recycle ratio.. 2. Nitrification reaction was shown as maxium in the SCOD$_{cr}$/NH$^{+}$-N ratio of 6.5 and in more ratio than this it was decreased. Denitrification rate was the maxium as 85% in more than 7.5 of SCOD$_{cr}$/NO$_{x}$-N ratio and in the ratio over this ratio it becomes constant. 3. By utilizing an applied new model of Stover-Kincannon from Monod's kinetic model, concentration of T-N in the effluent according to flow quanity in the influent was estimated as 8.74 and -67.5 respectively. The formula for estimating T-N concentration of effluent was obtained like this: N$_e$=N$_0$(1- $\frac{8.74}{(QN$_0$/A)-67.05}$)

The results of the water purification studies using water parsley (Oenanthe javanica) were obtained as follows. The removal rate of nutrient salts increased with longer plant growth periods. The results of this study use the assumption, log(T+1) = $K(C_0-C)^A$, based on Prakish's Theory. The initial concentration was calculated from experimental data. A and K are closely related to the initial concentration. It is possible to model the concentration of residual salts, as time goes by, if concentration is constant. It was observed that water parsley neutralizes acid and alkali substances promptly. The maximum suitable neutralization period is 48 hours. But water parsley withered up in strong acid and alkali solutions within a week. The removal efficiency of Cd progresses in 2 steps, which are unrelated to the initial concentration of Cd. The first part of the curve shows the concentration rapid rate of Cd removal, followed by a levelling off. The removal rate of $NO_x-N$ in the sample water tank containing 0.5 ppm Cd was between 50~80% but the removal rate was less than 20% for the higher concentration. On the other hand, increased amounts of $PO_4-P$ in the sample water tank from the third day on suspected that $PO_4-P$ was desorbed from the water parsley. The accumulation efficiency of Cd in plant was increased in proportion to the initial concentration of Cd. The accumulation phenomenon was observed in the tanks more than 50~100 times.

Purpose: Performance of slurry composting and biofiltration with methane production (SCB-M) using swine manure and sawdust was evaluated. The suitable specific liquid input (SLI) was determined at lab-scale SCB. Method: In lab-scale SCB, the SLI test was performed at liquid input rate of 0.04, 0.09, $0.17cc/cm^3$ with constant sawdust volume. In pilot-scale SCB-M, the swine manure was fed to methane digester at organic loading rate (OLR) of 0.25-0.5 g VS/L/d. The effluent from methane digester was filtered using SCB. Results: The SLI at $0.04cc/cm^3$ showed good performance in terms of retention time. In pilot-scale SCB, the removal of $NH_3$-N and total nitrogen (T-N) was found to be around 59% and 28%, respectively. Similarly, volatile fatty acid (VFA) and total chemical oxygen demand (TCOD) removal was found be 56% and 43%, respectively. Conclusions: For SCB-M process, the SLI of $0.04cc/cm^3$ is recommended. The performance of swine manure treatment was improved more by using SCB-M system than using methane digester only.

본 연구에서는 생산성이 인정된 모돈 F1(YL)에 종료웅돈(Terminal Sire)으로 Duroc종 이외에 생산성 저하에 많은 영향을 미치지 않을 것으로 판단되는 최종 종료웅돈(Terminal Sire) Berkshire종과 Berkshire×Duroc(F1)을 YL(♀) 교배시켜 생산된 비육돈(YLD, YLB, YLBD)의 성장과 육질을 비교 분석 하였다. 성장형질에서는 YL(♀)×BD(♂)가 YL(♀)×D(♂)보다 우수하였으며, 조사된 성장형질 전체에서 유의적인 차이(p<0.05)를 보였다. 육질에서도 pH, 보수력, 육색이 다른 비육돈 보다 유의적으로(p<0.05) 우수하였고, 돼지 육질의 표준이 되는 등심조지방 함량에서 YL(♀)×BD(♂)가 유의적으로 우수하였다. 교배조합별 육색에서는 YL(♀)×BD(♂)가 대체로 명도와 적색도가 높았으며, 지방산 조성에 있어서는 불포화 지방산의 비율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 성장형질에서는 YL(♀)×BD(♂)가 비교 대상의 교배조합에 비해 우수하였으며, 육질에서도 YL(♀)×D(♂) 보다 좋거나 같아 비육돈 교배조합(YLBD)으로서의 이용가치가 있을 것으로 사료된다. 하지만 본 연구의 경우 경남 첨단양돈연구소의 계통조성이 완료된 American Berkshire종을 이용하여 경남의 경우 경남 첨단양돈연구소를 활용하여 별도의 비용이 없이 YLBD를 생산이 가능하겠으나, 다른 지역의 경우 Berkshire의 계통 조성하여 활용할 경우 기존의 종료웅돈 Duroc종을 계통 조성하는 비용만큼 더 소요될 것이라 사료된다.

Palmaria palmata was integrated with Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus on a commercial farm for one year starting in November, with a temperature range of 0.4 to $19.1^{\circ}C$. The seaweed was grown in nine plastic mesh cages (each $1.25m^3$ volume) suspended in a concrete sump tank ($46m^3$) in each of three recirculating systems. Two tanks received effluent water from tanks stocked with halibut, and the third received ambient seawater serving as a control. Thalli were tumbled by continuous aeration, and held under a constant photoperiod of 16 : 8 (L : D). Palmaria stocking density was $2.95kg\;m^{-3}$ initially, increasing to $9.85kg\;m^{-3}$ after a year. Specific growth rate was highest from April to June (8.0 to $9.0^{\circ}C$), 1.1% $d^{-1}$ in the halibut effluent and 0.8% $d^{-1}$ in the control, but declined to zero or less than zero above $14^{\circ}C$. Total tissue nitrogen of Palmaria in effluent water was 4.2 to 4.4% DW from January to October, whereas tissue N in the control system declined to 3.0-3.6% DW from April to October. Tissue carbon was independent of seawater source at 39.9% DW. Estimated tank space required by Palmaria for 50% removal of the nitrogen excreted by 100 t of halibut during winter is about 29,000 to $38,000m^2$, ten times the area required for halibut culture. Fifty percent removal of carbon from the same system requires 7,200 to $9,800m^2$ cultivation area. Integration of P. palmata with Atlantic halibut is feasible below $10^{\circ}C$, but is impractical during summer months due to disintegration of thalli associated with reproductive maturation.

This research was performed to purify water quality through removing T-N, and T-P and to estimating rate of $NO_x$ by the response of photocatalyst using ceramics. The ceramics was a mixtures of Titanium Diboride($TiB_2$) which is used to develop armored cars with excellent protective power and lightness, Olivine, and Hwangto with water and was furnaced for an hour at $1160^{\circ}C$. Hwangto and Olivine used in the study are produced at Haenam-gun, Jeonnam, and Andong-city, Gyeongsangbuk-do, respectively. The ground Hwangto and Olivine were seived through PR $100{\times}200$, and $TiB_2$ was a product of SIGMA ALDRICH. The experiment was performed under the sunlight, Mass flow controller was used for constant flow to pass through the pyrex reactor which was fully charged with furnaced ceramics. The concentration of $NO_2$ gas passed through the pyrex reactor was measured by Multi Gas Monitor. The reaction took for 60 minutes, The material was exposed to sunlight for 40 minutes. The sunlight was interrupted before and after the exposure for 10 minutes. The result showed that the concentration of $NO_2$ gas of the ceramics with $TiB_2$ and without $TiB_2$ became reduced and then maintained the same concentration under the sunlight, and became increased when the sunlight is interrupted. The $NO_2$ removing efficiency of the ceramics mixed with $TiB_2$ was 14~43% higher than that of the ceramics without $TiB_2$ under the sunlight. The study showed that the removing rate of $NO_2$ was 80% when the mixture rate of Hwangto, Olivine, and $TiB_2$ was 68%, 30% and 2%.
