우리나라엣 발생되는 축산 폐수는 $130,00m^3/day$로 전체 폐수의 0.43%에 불과하지만 총 BOD(생물학적 산소요구량)의 8.6%를 차지하고 있다. 그러나 생활폐수나 산업폐수와 달라 높은 질소, 인을 함유하고 있어 강이나 호수의 부영양화의 주원인이 되고 있다. 우리나라 축산폐수는 각 농가 당 폐수 발생량이 $2.5m^3/day$에 불과해 소규모이어서 경제적인 처리 방법이 필요하다. 부유물질 제거를 위해 미세여과 공정대신 충전탑을 이용한 전처리 방법을 통해 90% 이상의 부유물질을 제거하고 이어 역삼투압 방법을 적용하면 전질소와 전인의 제거율은 95%이상이나 되어 방류수는 전질소는 200 mg/이하, 전인 1 mg/L이하로 환경부의 축산폐수 배출수 수질 허용기준인 전질소 260 mg/L, 전인 50 mg/L이하를 충분히 만족 시킬 수 있다. $2m^3/day$의 축산폐수를 처리하는데 $0.4m^2$의 역삼투압 막 면적만 필요해 효과적인 소규모 처리시설이 가능함을 밝혔다. 처리에 소모되는 전력량도 월 30 Kwh로 에너지 절약적인 공정이 가능함을 예측하였다.

In existing systems, the best method inhibiting corrosion control in water distribution systems is to reduce water corrosiveness. Water corrosion can be decreased by controlling water quality through simple water treatment in treatment plants. On this research, we study the characteristics of tab water qualities in domestic areas, assessment of corrosive water quality and the method of water quality monitoring. This review presents the method of water quality monitoring which is the most applicable. Monitoring for corrosion control in waterworks system is the most proper method; It can prevent serious accidents economically and reduce civil appeals. Surely we should assess corrosive water quality in tab water, and introduce water treatment methods to control corrosive water quality before monitoring for corrosion. According to a lot of researches, it has been proved that simple water treatments can reduce the pipe corrosion. In this review we should indicate that we do not control of the corrosive water quality due to domestic conditions, we should monitor the water quality basically. Therefore, we recognize how the existing water quality can cause problems on pipeline corrosion, how to deal with it. Then it will be possible to apply water quality monitoring for corrosion control in water distribution system. Monitoring for corrosion control can be expressed by LI index, it is already known in literatures. This review presents more simple method than existing methods than existing ones we expect to apply these methods to SCADA in the future.

Ordinary heterotrophic organism (OHO) active biomass plays key roles in biological wastewater treatment processes. However, due to the lack of measurement techniques, the OHO active biomass exists hypothetically within the design and simulation of biological wastewater treatment processes. This research was purposed to develop a quick and easy quantifying technique for the OHO active biomass applying a modified batch aerobic growth test. Two nitrification-denitrification activated sludge systems, with 10- and 20-day sludge ages, were operated to provide well-cultured mixed liquor to the batch tests. A steady state design model was firstly applied to quantify the "theoretical" OHO active biomass concentration of the two parent systems. The mixed liquor from the parent systems was then inoculated to a batch growth test and a batch digestion test to estimate the "measured" OHO active biomass concentration in the mixed liquor. The measured OHO active biomass concentrations with the batch growth test and the batch digestion test were compared to the theoretical concentrations of the parent system. The measured concentrations with the batch growth test were generally smaller than the theoretical concentrations. However, the measured concentrations with the batch aerobic digestion tests showed a good correlation to the theoretical concentrations. Thus, a different microbial growth condition (i.e., a higher food/biomass ratio) in the batch growth test, compared to the parent system or the batch digestion test, was found to cause underestimation of the OHO active biomass concentrations.

Three pilot-scale membrane systems were operated using lake water as influent in this study. Microfiltration (MF) membrane with pore size of 0.01 m was used in Systen I of which filtration mode was set at constant pressure of $1kgf/cm^2$. Ultrafiltration (UF) membranes with molecular cutoff (MWCO) of 80,000 and 13,000 were used in System II-1 and II-2, respectively. Constant flow mode was applied at the range between 0.7 and $1.5m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ (average of $1.1m^3/m^2${\cdot}d) for System II-1 and between 0.37 and $1.65m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ (average of $1.18m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$) for System II-2. In System I, the flux changed from $1m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ to $0.2m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ during the operation time of 5 months. System II showed recovery of 94% under the allowable maximum pressure of $3kgf/cm^2$ during the same operation period. From these results, the efficient operation was observed in constant flow mode with respect to filtration time and recovery. Average filtrate turbidity showed 0.0071 NTU in System I and 0.0054 NTU in System II, which implied that high turbidity removal was obtained in both MF and UF systems with no significant difference between MF and UF. From the fact that membrane flux depends largely on membrane type and operation mode, a guideline of optimum design and operation should be suggested for application of membrane systems to full scale water treatment.

This study was conducted in order to investigate bulk organic matter characteristics and behavior of geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) during riverbank filtration, which are general surrogates of taste and odor in drinking water. Column studies were used to simulate bank filtration systems. Most of the aliphatic organic matter was removed effectively after soil passage, and it is believed to be polysaccharides according to LC-OCD and F-EEM analysises. Removal efficiencies of geosmin and 2-MIB within the filtration column reached above 95%. It was found that the removal of total dissolved organic matter has a correlation with that of geosmin and 2-MIB in the near of filtration surface (about 50cm).

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the characteristics of three sets of traditional control methods (proportional, integral, and proportional - integral controls) through lab-scale biological reactor experiments. An increase in proportional gain ($K_c$) resulted in reduced dissolved oxygen (DO) offset under proportional control. An increase in integral time ($T_i$) resulted in a slower response in DO concentration with less oscillation, but took longer to get to the set point. P-I control showed more stable and efficient control of DO and airflow rates compared to either proportional control or integral control. Developed P-I control system was successfully applied to lab-scale Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) for treating industrial wastewater with high organic strength.

Because of their simplicity, efficiency, and economy, slow sand filters are appropriate means of water treatment for small water systems. In this study, the effect of filtration velocity and dirty skin (Schmutzdecke) was evaluated on the performance of turbidity removal. Also, removal characteristics of particulate were investigated in the case of the usage of non-woven fabric on the surface of sand and the application of PCF as pretreatment process. Comparative column tests were carried out for the various operation condition. From the result of column tests, filtration velocity had little effect on the turbidity removal rate. The formation of algal biofilm on the surface of media is helpful in turbidity removal, while non-woven fabric is not as effective as expected. The relative contribution of biomass and accumulated particulates to head loss development in slow sand filters requires further study.

It is well known that the trend of water demand in large-size water supply systems has been suddenly changed, and many expansions of water supply facilities become unnecessary. To be cost-effective, thus, politicians as well as many professionals lay stress on the adaptive management of water supply facilities. Failure in adapting to the new trend of demand is sure to be the most critical reason of unnecessary expansions. Hence, we try to develop the model and modeling procedure that do not depend on the old data of demand, and provide engineers with the fast learning process. To forecast water demand of Seoul, the Bayesian parameter estimation was applied, which is a representative method for statistical pattern recognition. It results that we can get a useful time-series model after observing water demand during 6 years, although trend of water demand were suddenly changed.

In this study, effects of nutrient and inorganic carbon on single cell emergence during the cultivation of microalgae were observed using colonial green algae, Pediastrum duplex. The concentration of inorganic carbon had significant effect on single cell emergence and its growth, but nitrogen and phosphorus concentration showed minor effects. According to P. duplex cultivation experiment, single cell started to be emerged around 500~750 mg-C/L of inorganic carbon concentration and it was bloomed dramatically at the higher values. And growth of P. duplex was started to be surpressed at the single cell formation concentration. From the results, it could be said that when we operate the microalgae systems for cultivation/harvesting or wastewater treatment, in order to avoid single cell formation, inorganic carbon should be maintained to the proper level.

Interest in application of ultraviolet light technology for primary disinfection that used for the treatment of water for consumption and wastewater has increased significantly in recent years. Analysis of these systems has been carried out using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) procedure. It offers advantages over other techniques in specific circumstances. CFD has emerged as a powerful tool to aid design of a UV reactor by providing the UV dose delivered by the proposed reactor design and allowing engineers to evaluate alternative designs in much less time and at a reasonable cost. In this study, five different configurations of the apparatus depending on the location of the exit are evaluated in terms of maximum dose, minimum dose, flow patterns, particle tracks and transient dose. The configuration 3 results have higher minimum UV dose value and uniform particle distribution of the UV dose on the outlet than other's.
