Recently, due to the primary emphasis of environmental problem, the proper selection of the membrane systems necessary for waste water treatment has been one of the critical issues in the industrial sector. This paper shows how an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model can be used for assessing the performance of selected membrane systems: ultrafiltration, microfiltration, reverse osmosis, and electrodialysis essential for waste water treatments. The final results show that ultrafiltration is the most attractive membrane system to use in a water recycling system, followed by microfiltration, reverse osmosis and electrodialysis. This is consistent with the information that we found with respect to the elements that were taken into consideration. Sensitivity analysis is also provided here.

Wastewater sludge and composted food wastes were examined as the alternatives of a landfill cover for soils to eliminate the emission of VOCs. The benefit of these alternatives is in their high sorption capacity, which is 5 to 50 times higher than natural soils. After sorption is finished, biodegradation is an important mechanism in decrease of VOCs concentration. In order to investigate appropriate VOCs degradation condition, biodegradation batch experiment is being conducted with isolated strain X9-c. Both benzene and TCE were degraded only in soil with 12%(water volume/sorbent volumn) water condition. When the water condition varied from 12 to 48% in compost, optimum water conditions of composted food waste was 36%.

The eliminating of organic compound is essential process of the recovery of zinc sulfate from zinc sulfate waste water contained organic compound. The ozone oxidation and adsorption treatment is good for eliminating of organic compound in waste water. The zinc oxide treated an excess of sulfuric acid for zinc sulfate. We got zinc sulfate 740g from water 1kg.

A blast furnace slag(BFS) has been used as a filter medium for the treatment of domestic waste waters during the period of 9-month. More than 90% of phosphorus was removed while the hardness of the treated water increased by 5 times and the pH was significantly raised from 6.8 to 10.8. The high hardness and pH of the treated water indicated dissolution of BSF by the sewage. The experimental results suggest that BFS could be utilized for the removal of phosphorus in the waste water treatment plant using aquatic plants and gravels.

This study introduced waste water treatment method by superconducting HGMS(High Gradient Magnetic Separation). HGMS treatment method is high efficient method for various waste water, we have surveyed superconducting magnetic separation technology. We fabricated the prototypes of magnetic matrix filter consisting of stainless steel mesh, which is a core component in the magnetic separation system. In our basic preliminary experiment using HGMS, it was made clear that the fine para-magnetic particles in the wasted water obtained from steelmaking process of POSCO can be separated with high efficiency.

A method has been described for the chemical speciation, preconcentration and determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) species in filtered tannery waste waters by flame atomic absorption spectrometry using ion-exchange resins. Amberlite IR-120($H^+$) strongly acidic cation exchanger and Amberlite IRA-410($CI ^-$) strongly basic anion exchanger resins were used for the separation and preconcentration of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) species, respectively. Optimum condition for preconcentration and speciation was obtained by testing pH of sample and eluent, flow rates of sample and eluent, amount of resins, volume of sample and eluents, and effect of foreign ions. The recommended method has been successfully applied for the preconcentration and determination of chromium species in the dissolved phase of waste water samples collected from a tannery waste water treatment plant in Kayseri, Turkey. The detection limits achieved were 0.73 $\mu$g/L for Cr(III) and 0.81 $\mu$g/L for Cr(VI). Recovery studies showed 99% for Cr(III) and 98% for Cr(VI), for samples spiked with single species.

In this study, for the purpose of reduction of $CO_2$ gas emission and to increase recovery of waste heat from ships, the ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) is investigated and offered for the conversion of temperature heat to electricity from waste heat energy from ships. Simulation was performed with waste heat from the exhaust gasse which is relatively high temperature and cooling sea water which is relatively low temperature from ships. Various fluid is used for simulation of the ORC system with variable temperature and flow condition and efficiency of system and output power is compared. Finally, 2,400kW output power is obtained by system optimization of the preheater and reheater utilizing waste heat form sea water cooling system.

A comparative study on the anaerobic digestion efficiency according to the temperature change was conducted considering the characteristics of domestic food wastes with high water content of about 80 % or more. The substrate was tested for anaerobic digestion efficiency in two substrates, a liquid component separated naturally from food waste and food waste itself. In the anaerobic digestion experiments, the digestion efficiency was the highest at $55^{\circ}C$ (thermophilic temperature). However, the digestion efficiency at $45^{\circ}C$(middle high temperature) was lower than that at $35^{\circ}C$(mesophilic temperature). The comparison of general food wastes anaerobic digestion requiring 30 days of hydraulic retention time to the liquid component indicated a stable digestion efficiency even after 15 days of hydraulic retention time.In the experiments conducted on food waste, the digestion efficiency at $55^{\circ}C$ was higher than that at $35^{\circ}C$. When the food waste, especially the liquid component originating from food waste, is treated by anaerobic digestion method, the mesophilic temperature and thermophilic temperature conditions are more favorable in the digestion efficiency than the middle high temperature ($45^{\circ}C$). However, when applying thermophilic or mesophilic temperature anaerobic digestion process operation in the field, the amount of energy input should be considered.

When wood plastic composites (WPCs) have been used for a certain period of time, they become waste materials and should be recycled to reduce their environmental impact. Waste WPCs can be transformed into reinforced composites, in which fillers are used to improve their performance. In this study, recycled WPCs were prepared using different proportions of waste WPCs, nanoclay, and glass fiber. The effects of nanoclay and glass fiber on the microstructural, mechanical, thermal, and water absorption properties of the recycled WPCs were investigated. X-ray diffraction showed that the nanoclay intercalates in the WPCs. Additionally, scanning electron micrographs revealed that the glass fiber is adequately dispersed. According to the analysis of mechanical properties, the simultaneous incorporation of nanoclay and glass fiber improved both tensile and flexural strengths. However, as the amount of fillers increases, their dispersion becomes limited and the tensile and flexural modulus were not further improved. The synergistic effect of nanoclay and glass fiber in recycled WPCs enhanced the thermal stability and crystallinity ($X_c$). Also, the presence of nanoclay improved the water absorption properties. The results suggested that recycled WPCs reinforced with nanoclay and glass fiber improved the deteriorated performance, showing the potential of recycled waste WPCs.
