UIW-10 mutant obtained by UV treatment using sulfur-oxidizing bacteria, Thiobacillus sp. IW was studied. The colony size of UIW-10 was found 2 $^{\sim}$ 3 times bigger in diameter than the parent colony on TAM medium. UIW-10 mutant growth was two times higher than parent strain at 6 h culture in liquid medium containing sulfides such as sulfur and sodium thiosulfate. Initial pH and temperature for the optimum growth of UIW-10 were 6.0 and $35-40^{\circ}C$, respectively. It was found that addition of 0.5% yeast extract and 0.5 to 2.0% tryptone as nitrogen sources and the constant agitation at 150 to 200 rpm had a positive effect and the growth of UIW-10 was increased.

퇴비공장 또는 공공시설에서 발생되는 악취폐가스의 대표적인 제거대상 오염원인 황화수소와 암모니아를 포함한 악취폐가스를 처리하기 위하여 여러 운전 조건 하에서의 Thiobacillus sp. IW 및 반송슬러지를 고정한 담체를 충전한 semi-pilot 바이오필터 시스템을 운전하였다. Semi-pilot 바이오필터 운전 초반 및 중반에서는 황화수소 제거효율은 암모니아 부하와 무관하였으나, 암모니아 제거효율은 황화수소 부하가 커짐에 따라서 감소하였다. 그럼에도 불구하고 semi-pilot 바이오필터 운전 후반에서는 황화수소 부하가 커짐에도 불구하고 암모니아 제거효율이 영향을 받지 않았다. 이것은 semi-pilot 바이오필터 운전 후반의 buffer solution의 지속적 투입으로 인하여 semi-pilot 바이오필터담체의 산성화가 크지 않음에 기인한다고 간주된다. Semi-pilot 바이오필터시스템으로 황화수소와 암모니아의 동시제거를 할 때에 황화수소와 암모니아의 최대 elimination capacity 값은 각각 약 58 및 $30g/m^3/h$이었다. 이와 같이 semi-pilot 바이오필터 운전에 의하여 황화수소와 암모니아를 동시 제거한 경우에는 실험실규모 바이오필터의 유사한 운전조건 하에서 둘 중의 하나만을 함유한 경우보다 제거용량이 각각 약 39와 46% 만큼 감소하여서, 황화수소와 암모니아를 동시 제거한 경우에 암모니아 최대제거용량이 황화수소 최대제거용량보다 7% 만큼 더 감소하였다.

황화수소와 암모니아를 포함한 악취폐가스를 처리하기 위하여 여러 semi-pilot 바이오필터 운전 조건 하에서 Bacillus cereus DAH-1056과 Arthrobacter sp. KDE-0311를 고정한 semi-pilot 바이오필터 시스템을 운전하였다. Semi-pilot 바이오필터 운전조건에서 Thiobacillus sp. IW와 반송슬러지를 고정한 바이오필터의 황화수소 removal efficiency는 약 80%이었고 암모니아의 removal efficiency는 약 50% 정도이었던 반면에 Bacillus cereus DAH-1056과 Arthrobacter sp. KDE-0311를 고정한 본 연구에서 황화수소의 removal efficiency는 약 90%이었고 암모니아의 removal efficiency는 약 60% 정도이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 Thiobacillus sp. IW와 반송슬러지를 고정한 semi-pilot 바이오필터의 경우를 기준으로 황화수소 및 암모니아의 removal efficiency가 각각 약 13% 및 20% 정도 제고되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 암모니아의 최대 elimination capacity가 약 $35g/m^3/h$로서 Thiobacillus sp. IW와 반송슬러지를 고정한 semi-pilot 바이오필터의 경우보다 $3{\sim}5g/m^3/h$ 정도 제고되어 10~17% 더욱 높았다. 한편 본 연구의 황화수소의 최대 elimination capacity는 약 $63g/m^3/h$ 정도로 약 15% 증가하였다. 본 연구에서는 같은 inlet load의 황화수소라 할지라도 높은 농도의 황화수소가 낮은 농도의 황화수소보다 바이오필터의 암모니아 처리를 더 어렵게 하거나, 같은 inlet load의 암모니아라 할지라도 낮은 농도의 암모니아의 경우가 높은 농도의 암모니아보다 더 큰 removal efficiency와 elimination capacity를 갖는 것이 관찰되었다. 본 연구에서의 황화수소 최대처리용량은 황화수소와 암모니아를 동시처리 하였음에도 불구하고 황화수소만을 바이오필터로 처리한 선행연구에서의 황화수소 최대처리용량을 초과하거나 비슷하였다. 또한 본 연구에서는 바이오필터로 황화수소와 암모니아를 동시처리한 선행연구보다 더 높은 암모니아 제거용량을 보였다.

An autotrophic denitrification reactor (ADR-l) and a heterotrophic denitrification reactor (HDR-2) were operated to remove nitrate and nitrite in an anoxic environment in raw sewage. The $NO_3$-N removal rate of ADR-l was shown to range from 52.8% to 78.7%, which was higher than the $NO_3$-N removal rate of HDR-2. Specific denitrification rates (SDNR) of ADR-l and HDR-2 were 3.0 to 4.0 and 1.1 to $1.2\;mgNO_3$-N/gVSS/h, respectively. From results of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the 16S rRNA gene, Aquaspirillum metamorphum, Alcaligenes defragrans, and Azoarcus sp. were $\beta$-Proteobacteria that are affiliated with denitritying bacteria in the ADR-l. Specifically, Thiobacillus denitrificans was detected as an autotrophic denitrification bacteria. In HDR-2, the $\beta$-Proteobacteria such as Denitritying-Fe-oxidizing bacteria, Alcaligenes defragrans, Acidovorax sp., Azoarcus denitrificans, and Aquaspirillum metamorphum were the main bacteria related to denitrifying bacteria. The $\beta$-and $\alpha$-Proteobacteria were the important bacterial groups in ADR-l, whereas the $\beta$-Proteobacteria were the main bacterial group in HDR-2 based on results of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). The number of Thiobacillus denitrificans increased in ADR-l during the operation period but not in HRD-2. Overall, the data presented here demonstrate that many heterotrophic denitritying bacteria coexisted with autotrophic denitrifying bacteria such as Thiobacillus denitrificans for nitrate removal in ADR-l. On the other hand, only heterotrophic denitritying bacteria were identified as dominant bacterial groups in HDR-2. Our research may provide a foundation for the complete nitrate removal in raw sewage of low-COD concentration under anoxic condition without any external organic carbon or the requirement of post-treatment.

바이오필터의 운전에 있어 큰 표면적, 높은 한계 역압력을 가지고 있는 충진 담체의 선택은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 황산화 세균을 분리하고 분리된 황산화 세균과 바이오필터를 이용해 담체 종류에 따른 황화수소의 제거특성을 조사하는 것이며 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 전남 화순의 폐탄광 폐수에서 Thiobacillus sp. IW.를 분리하였다. 2) 다양한 담체를 이용해 유입농도, 공간속도에 따른 바이오필터의 황화수소 제거특성 및 압력손실 변화 살펴본 결과 무기성 담체가 유기성 담체에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타내었다. 3) 무기성 담체 중에서는 섬유상, PU 담체가 다른 담체에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

A packed bed of volcanic rock was used as deodorizing material to remove hydrogen sulfide($H_2$S) from air in a laboratory-scale column, and was inoculated with Thiobacillus sp. as $H_2S$ oxidizer. The effects of volcanic rock particle size distribution on system pressure drop were examined. Various tests have been conducted to evaluate the effect of $H_2S$ inlet concentration and CBCT(Empty Bed Contact Time) on $H_2S$ elimination. The pressure drop for particles of size range from 5.6 to 10 mm was 14 mm$H_2S$/m at a representative gas velocity of 0.25m/s. Biofilter using scoria and Thiobacillus sp. could get the stable removal efficiencies more than 99.9% under $H_2S$ inlet concentrations in the range from 30 to 1,100ppm at a constant gas flow rate of $15.2{\ell}$/min. $H_2S$ removal efficiencies greater than 99% were observed as long as EBCT was longer than 8sec at the 250ppm of $H_2S$ inlet concentration. When EBCT was reduced to 5.5 sec, $H_2S$ removal efficiency decreased by about 12 percent. The maximum $H_2S$ elimination capacity was determined to be 269g-$H_2S/m^3{\cdot}hr$.

In this study, hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$), ammonia ($NH_3$), and benzene, which represent the major odor from a natural leather process plant, were removed using a fluidized bed bioreactor and biofilter including Thiobacillus sp. IW and a MY microbial consortium. The critical removal rate was $12g m^{-3}h^{-1}\;for\;H_2S,\;11g m^{-3}h^{-1}\;for\;NH_3\;and\;28 g m^{-3}h^{-1}$ for benzene by the fluidized bed bioreactor, and $8.5g m^{-3}h^{-1}\;for\;H_2S\;7g m^{-3}h^{-1}\;for\;NH_3,\;and\;25 g m^{-3}h^{-1}$ for benzene in the biofilter. The average removal efficiency of $H_2S$, $NH_3$, and benzene by continuous operation for over 30 days with the fluidized bed bioreactor was $95{\pm}3\%,\;99{\pm}1\%,\;and\;98{\pm}5\%$, respectively, whereas that with the biofilter was $96{\pm}4\%,\;95{\pm}4\%,\;and\;97{\pm}3\%$, respectively. Therefore, the critical removal rate of $H_2S$, $NH_3$, and benzene was higher in the fluidized bed bioreactor, whereas the removal efficiency on the continuous operation was similar in both bioreactors.

A sulfer-oxidizing bacterium was isolated from mine wastewater and characterized. The isolate was gra-negative, rod (0.2 * 1.2-1.5.mu.m), nonmotiloe, catalase positive, and oxidase prositive. The opotimal pH and temperature for growth were 7.0 and 30.deg.C. respectively. The optimum thiosulfate concentration was 70 mM and the maximum growth rate was 0.081 hr. The major ubiquinone contained in the isolate was Q-8. The cellular fatty acid composition was $C_{16 : 0}$, $C_{18 : 1}$, $C_{17cyc}$,and $C_{19cyc}$ as nonpolar fatty acids, and 3-OH C10 : 0 and 3-OH $C_{12 : 0}$ as hydroxylated fatty acids. The isolate was a facultative chemolithoautotroph which can grow autotrophically on sodium thiosulfate and sodium sulfide and which can grow heterotrophically on yeast extract. It can also grow mixotrophically on sodium thiosulfate and yeast extract. Comparison of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of the isolate with that of Thiobacillus species and Paracoccus thiocyanatus revealed that it is closely related to T. caldus which belongs to the .betha.-subclass of the class Proteobacteria. However, the isolated could not grow at extremely low pH (pH 1-3.5). On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, the isolate was tentatively named Thiobacillus sp. strain C.ain C.

A simple and effective method has been developed for the immobilization of the cell on polyurethane foam. Two types of commercially available polyurethane foam and Hydro-filt were tested. The ultimate purpose of the process is to produce low-cost materials for hydrogen sulfide removal which are being increasingly used for industrial application. Effect of several parameters were studied on the cell loading. These parameters were type, size, and amount of polyurethane foam. MC-70 was the best immobilization material of three type of carriers, and optical particle size was $5{\sim}8mm$ and amount of polyurethane foam was 8g/L.
