In biological wastewater treatment, high lipid concentrations can inhibit the activity of microorganisms critical to the treatment process and cause undesirable biomass flotation. To reduce the inhibitory effects of high lipid concentrations, a two-phase anaerobic system, consisting of an anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (ASBR) and an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor in series, was applied to synthetic dairy wastewater treatment. During 153 days of operation, the two-phase system showed stable performance in lipid degradation. In the ASBR, a 13% lipid removal efficiency and 10% double-bond removal efficiency were maintained. In the UASB, the chemical oxygen demand (COD), lipid, and volatile fatty acid (VFA) removal efficiencies were greater than 80%, 70%, and 95%, respectively, up to an organic loading rate of 6.5 g COD/l/day. No serious operational problems, such as significant scum formation or sludge washout, were observed. Protein degradation was found to occur prior to degradation during acidogenesis.

Nitrogen removal and methane production from piggery wastewater were investigated in two-phase anaerobic digestion (TPAD) coupled with biological nitrogen removal (BNR) process at $35^{\circ}C$. Methane production rate was about $0.7L/L{\cdot}day$ at organic loading rate (OLR) of $1.2g{\cdot}TCOD/L{\cdot}day$ in methanogenic UASB. Conversion efficiency of the removed TCOD into methane in UASB was as high as 72% and overall TCOD removal efficiency in this system was over 97%. Ammonia nitrogen were stably removed in BNR system and overall efficiency were 98%. With recirculation of the nitrified final effluent to TPAD, nitrogen oxides were completely removed by anaerobic denitrification in the acidogenic reactor, which did not inhibit the acidogenic activities. Overall TN removal efficiency in the TPAD-BNR system was as high as 94%.

Importance of anaerobic digestion as an energy generating device has been increased as fuel shortage becomes serieous. Several modification methods on the conventional digesters including Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) addition and two-phase digestion were studied to enhance the gas production. This study investigated the effects of PAC on anaerobic digestion of chicken manure in terms of gas production and sludge stabilization. As a first experiment, an optimum PAC dose for efficient gas production was determined in a batch test. In semi-continuous experiments, an optimum Sludge Retention Time (SRT) at that PAC concentration and an overall substate utilization rate coefficient were investigated. A portion of gas increased by PAC addition was estimated using a substrate utilization rate coefficient of microorganisms attached on PAC. This test was performed in batch experiments using acetic acid as a substrate. The digesters for all experiments were kept 35${\pm}$ 1˚C in a heated water bath. Mixing was performed manually once a day and the produced gas was collected for daily reading. The following conclusions were made for this study. 1. Cptimum PAC concentration was 5% total solids, where gas production rate was increased by 20 percents. 2. Optimum SRT was 7.5 days. 3. Substrate utilization rate coefficient of microorganisms attached on PAC was about twice as much as that of suspended ones.

A two-phase anaerobic digestion system for the treatment of swine waste was constructed in a commercial hog farm. The digester system was composed of 4 major units; slurry storage pit, acidogenic digester, methanogenic digester and sedimentation pit. A biogas boiler unit was also attached to maintain the digester temperature of 37$^{\circ}C$. Substrate lading was made with 2hr-interval by pumping about 2.1$m^3$ of slurry type swine waste from the slurry pit into the acidogenic digester, which corresponds to hydraulic retention time of 4 days for the acidogenic digester and of 11 days for the methanogenic digester. Digester temperature were well maintained as the set temperature of 37$^{\circ}C$ in the methanogenic digester, while the temperature in the acidogenic digester showed around 34$^{\circ}C$. pH also showed a steady-state results of 7.3 in the acidogenic digester and of 7.6 in the methanogenic digester during the operation period. Average biogas production rate was 0.66$m^3$/$m^3$ digester volume. Reduction rate of total solid and volatile solid were 42.8% and 5.8%, respectively. Total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen were not reduced during the anaerobic fermentation, however, most of VFAs seemed to be converted to the biogas,. These fermentation performance data may suggest that he newly developed a two-phase anaerobic digester for the swine waste treatment worked so successfully.

A 5 ton/day pilot scale two-phase anaerobic digester was constructed and tasted to treat Korean food wastes in Anyang city. The process was developed based on 3 years of lab-scale experimental results on am optimim treatment method for the recovery of biogas and humus. Problems related to food waste are ever Increasing quantity among municipal solid wastes(MSW) and high moisture and salt contents. Thus our food waste produces large amounts of leachate and bed odor in landfill sites which are being exhausted. The easily degradable presorted food waste was efficiently treated in the two-phase anaerobic digestion process. The waste contained in plastic bags was shredded and then screened for the removal of inert material such as fabrics and plastics, and subsequently put into the two-stage reactors. Heavy and light inerts such as bones, shells, spoons and plastic pieces were again removed by gravity differences. The residual organic component was effectively hydrolyzed and acidified in the first reactor with 5 days space time at pH of about 6.5. The second, methanization reactor part of which is filled with anaerobic fillters, converted the acids into methane with pH between 7.4 to 7.8. The space time for the second reactor was 15 days. The effluent from the second reactor was recycled to the first reactor to provide alkalinities. The process showed stable steady state operation with the maximum organic rate of 7.9 $kgVS/m^3day$ and the volatile solid reduction efficiency of about 70%. The total of 3.6 tons presorted MSW containing 2.9 tons of food organic was treated to produce about $230m^3$ of biogas with 70% of methane and 80kg humus. This process is extended to full scale treating 15 tons of food waste a day in Euiwang city and the produced biogas is utilized for the heating/cooling of adjacent buildings.

본 연구는 유기성폐기물의 혼합슬러지를 개량형 단상 혐기성 소화공정에서 각각의 혼합비율에 따른 바이오가스 생산효율 향상에 관한 연구로, 연구에 사용된 유기성폐기물의 종류는 하수 생슬러지, 음폐수 및 가축분뇨이다. BMP test를 통해 잠재적 메탄발생량을 확인한 결과 단일시료의 경우 가축분뇨가 $1.55m^3CN4/kgVS$로 가장 높게 평가되었고, 혼합시료(생슬러지, 음폐수, 가축분뇨)의 경우는 각각의 비율을 50% : 30% : 20%로 하였을 때 $0.43m^3CN4/kgVS$로 가장 높게 나타났다. 반면 실증플랜트에서 혼합슬러지 최적 혼합비율은 생슬러지(68.5) : 음폐수(18.0) : 가축분뇨(13.5)로 나타나 BMP test와 다소 상이한 결과를 보였다. 이는 혼합슬러지 성상변화와 체류시간 등 소화조 운전조건 변화에 기인한 결과로 판단되며, 단상 혐기성 소화조의 바이오가스 생산량이 $2,514m^3/d$, 메탄함량 62.8%로 조사되어 설계능력인 바이오가스 생산량 $2,319m^3/d$ 기준으로 볼 때 최대성능을 발휘하는 것으로 평가되었다. 아울러 본 연구를 통해 혐기성 소화방식에 있어 소화조의 안정적인 운영과 소화효율 측면에서 고효율 방식인 2상 소화방식을 도입하는 것이 유리하나 기존의 단상 소화방식에 있어서도 소화효율 개선 및 성능향상이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 당 연구실에서 구축하고 있는 음식물쓰레기 고부가 자원화zero-emission시스템의 마지막 단계에 해당하는 부분으로써 본 공정의 부산물인 음식물 쓰레기 당화고형분과 박테리아 셀룰로오스배양 후의 여액을 기질 원으로 하여 2상 UASB 반응기를 이용하여 혐기성 소화를 수행하였다. 산 반응조와 메탄 반응조는 각각 35, 40$^{\circ}C$에서 운전하였고 두 반응조의 유기물 부하율은 각각 3g-VS/L${\cdot}$day, 25,000 mg/L로 유지하였다. 공정부산물의 최적 소화조건을 찾기 위하여 F.W + B.C.R, B.C.R, B.C.R + S.S 순으로 단계적으로 주입, 운전한 결과, 최종 메탄 발효액의 pH는 각각 7.13, 7.17, 7.22이었고 COD 제거율은 각각 88, 90, 91%이었으며 메탄 생성율은 각각 0.26, 0.34, $0.32m^3-CH_4/kg-COD_{remove}$이었다. 세번째 단계인 B.C.R + S.S를 기질로 사용한 경우가 음식물 쓰레기만 사용한 경우보다 전환효율이 높았다. 이는 음식물 쓰레기를 바로 혐기성 소화하는 것보다 음식물 쓰레기로부터 고부가가치를 창출하고 그 잔액으로 혐기성 소화를 거치는 방법이 보다 경제적이고 유익함을 알 수 있다. 따라서 당 실험실에서 구축하고 있는 음식물 쓰레기 고부가 자원화 zero-emission 시스템은 음식물 쓰레기에 포함된 에너지를 최대한 회수하고 고부가가치를 창출함에 있어서 가장 이상적인 방법이라고 사료된다.
