팔당호 식물플랑크톤의 제한영양염과 생리학적 성장 특성을 평가하기 위하여 2002년 3월부터 10일까지 팔당호의 수질환경 조사와 함께 실내 배양실험을 실시하였다. 총인의 농도와 Chl. a의 상관성 분석결과, 팔당호의 호수생산성은 인의 영향을 많이 받으며 TN/TP ratio와 식물플랑크톤의 성장잠재력 실험을 통해서도 제한영양염은 인으로 평가되었다. 특히, 봄철이 다른 계절에 비해 상대적으로 용존무기인이 낮은 농도로 존재하기 때문에 높은 인 제한을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 인의 제한정도는 계절적인 변이를 나타내었으며, 시기에 따라 질소와 규소에 의한 제한가능성도 나타났다. 팔당호 식물플랑크톤 군집의 최대성장률(${\mu}_{max}$)은 0.8${\sim}$l.1$day^1$의 범위로 나타났으며, 반포화농도($K_u$)는 0.1${\sim}$O.8${\mu}M$로 5월에 $0.8{\mu}M$로 가장 높고 9월에 $0.1{\mu}M$로 가장 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 이는 영양염 흡수에 영향을 미치는 인의 cell quota와 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 5월에 $0.13{\mu}gP/{\mu}gChl.$ 3로 낮은 값을 나타냈다. 식물플랑크톤의 성장특성 분석을 통해 팔당호에서는 봄에 비해 여름과 가을철에 발생한 식물플랑크톤의 성장이 경쟁적으로 빠르게 발달할 수 있는 잠재성이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 결과적으로, 팔당호 식물플랑크톤 성장은 주로 인에 의하여 제한되며 여름 몬순 이후 수체의 안정기동안 높은 성장을 할 수 있는 생리적 특성을 가지고 있는 것으로 추정된다.

A mathematical model is proposed that can depict the kinetics of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) using steam-exploded wood(SEW) with a glucose- and cellobiose-fermenting yeast strain. Brettanomyces custersii. An expression to describe the reduction of the relative digestibility during the hydrolysis of the SEW is introduced in the hydrolysis model. The fermentation model also takes two new factors into account, that is, the effects of the inhibitory compounds present in the SEW hydrolysates on the microorganism and the fermenting ability of Brettanomyces custersii, which can use both glucose and cellobiose as carbon sources. The model equations were used to simulate the hydrolysis of the SEW, the fermentation of the SEW hydrolysates, and a batch SSF, and the results were compared with the experimental data. The model was found to be capable of representing ethanol production over a range of substrate concentrations. Accordingly, the limiting factors in ethanol production by SSF under the high concentration of the SEW were identified as the effect of inhibitory compounds present in the SEW, the enzyme deactivation, and a limitation in the digestibility based on the physical condition of the substrate.

This study is to discuss the factors influenced on the removal efficiency of a high-strength organic wastewaters investigated using the polypropyrene media which appropriate to attach microorganism in the tube type fixed biofilter reactor. The results obtained in the experiment were as follows: 1. The kinetics of reaction rate (k') were 0.125, 0.135, 0.155 varing initial COD 720, 1280, 1630 mg/l in batch reactor. 2. In the range of pH 4.0 ~12.0 was obtained the removal efficiency of COD higher than 85%. It was proved that variation of pH (4.0 ~12.0) was nothing to do with the removal efficiency of substrate in continuous reactor. 3. Temperature to obtain removal efficiency of COD higher than 85% was 10 ~ 40$\circ$C. Removal efficiency of COD was no less than those at high temperature. 4. In the continuous reactor, the volumetric loading of COD for removal efficiency higher than 95% had to be 0.5~1.5 kg COD/m$^3$.d below. And then the HRT was 8 hrs. 5. In comparison with the activated sludge process, the tube type fixed biofilter process was excellent in removal efficiency of substrate and sludge production rate.

Biosorption characteristics were investigated at various temperature and pH conditions in order to establish lead(II) removal using Zoogloea ramigera 115SLR. Biosorption equilibrium isotherms and kinetics were obtained from batch experiments. The Freundlich and Langmuir model could be described the biosorption equilibrium of lead(II) on Z. ramigera 115SLR, Ca-alginate bead and immobilized Z. ramigera 115SLR. The maximum biosorption capacity of Z. ramigera 115SLR increased from 325 to 617mg $pb^{2+}/g$ biomass as temperature increased from 288.15 K to 308.15K from the Langmuir model. Fixed-bed column breakthrough curves for lead(II) removal were also obtained. For regeneration of the biosorbent, complete lead(II) desorption was achieved using 5mM HCl in fixed-bed column. This study shows the possibilities that well-treated immobilized Z. ramigera 115SLR with the mechanical intensity like TEOS (Tetraethyl orthosilicate) treatment and the optimum acid solution for desorption can be used for the effective treatment for lead(II) containing wastewater.

Carboxylated multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH) have been used as efficient adsorbents for the removal of picric acid from aqueous solutions under stirring and ultrasound conditions. Batch experiments were conducted to study the influence of the different parameters such as pH, amount of adsorbents, contact time and concentration of picric acid on the adsorption process. The kinetic data were fitted with pseudo-first order, pseudo-second-order, Elovich and intra-particle diffusion models. The kinetic studies were well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model for both methods. In addition, the adsorption isotherms of picric acid from aqueous solutions on the MWCNTs were investigated using six two-parameter models (Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin, Halsey, Harkins-Jura, Fowler-Guggenheim), four three-parameter models (Redlich-Peterson, Khan, Radke-Prausnitz, and Toth), two four-parameter equations (Fritz-Schlunder and Baudu) and one five-parameter equation (Fritz-Schlunder). Three error analysis methods, correlation coefficient, chi-square test and average relative errors, were applied to determine the best fit isotherm. The error analysis showed that the models with more than two parameters better described the picric acid sorption data compared to the two-parameter models. In particular, the Baudu equation provided the best model for the picric acid sorption data for both methods.

Lack of information on the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) decay rates of river water under the tropical environment has triggered this study with an aim to fill the gap. Raw sewage, treated sewage, river water and tap water were mixed in different proportions to represent river water receiving varying amounts and types of wastewater and fed in a laboratory flume in batch mode. Water samples were recirculated in the flume for 30 h and BOD and Carbonaceous BOD (CBOD) concentrations were measured at least six times. Decay rates were obtained by fitting the measured data in the first order kinetic equation. After conducting 12 experiments, the range of BOD and CBOD decay rates were found to be 0.191 to 0.92 per day and 0.107 to 0.875 per day, respectively. Median decay rates were 0.344 and 0.258 per day for BOD and CBOD, respectively, which are slightly higher than the reported values in literatures. A relationship between CBOD decay rate and BOD decay rate is proposed as $k_{CBOD}=0.8642_{k_{BOD}}-0.0349$ where, $k_{CBOD}$ is CBOD decay rate and $k_{BOD}$ is BOD decay rate. The equation can be useful to extrapolate either of the decay rates when any of the rates is unknown.

The study describes the results of batch experiments on the removal of Reactive Yellow 15 (RY15) and Reactive Black 5 (RB5) from synthetic textile wastewater onto Activated Carbon from Walnut shell (ACW). The experimental data were analyzed by the Langmuir, Freundlish, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) models of adsorption. The experiments were carried out as function of initial concentrations, pH, temperature (303-333), adsorbent dose and kinetics. The surface area and pore volumes of adsorbent were measured by BET and BJH methods. The findings confirm the surface area (BET) is 248.99 $m^2/g$. The data fitted well with the Temkin and D-R isotherms for RY15 and RB5, respectively. The most favorable adsorption occurred in acidic pH. Pseudo-second order kinetic model were best in agreement with adsorption of RY15 and RB5 on ACW. The results indicate that walnut shell could be an alternative to more costly adsorbent currently being used for dyes removal.

Waste citrus peel-based activated carbon (WCAC) was prepared from waste citrus peels by activation with KOH. The removal of Cu and Pb ions from aqueous solution by the prepared WCAC was investigated in batch experiments. The solution pH significantly influenced Cu and Pb adsorption capacity and the optimum pH was 4 to 6. The adsorption of Cu and Pb ions by WCAC followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity calculated by Langmuir isotherm model was 31.91 mg/g for Cu and 92.22 mg/g for Pb. As the temperature was increased from 303 K to 323 K, the ${\Delta}G^{\circ}$ value decreased from -7.01 to -8.57 kJ/mol for Cu ions and from -0.87 to -2.06 kJ/mol for Pb ions. These results indicated that the adsorption of Cu and Pb by WCAC is a spontaneous process.

Pb-contaminated soil at a clay shooting range was analyzed by the sequential extraction method to identify metal binding properties in terms of detrital and non-detrital forms of the soil. Most of the metals in the soils existed as non-detrital forms, exchangeable and carbonate-bound forms, which could be easily released from the soil by a washing method. Therefore, the characteristics of Pb desorption for remediation of the Pb-contaminated soil were evaluated using hydrochloric acid (HCl) by a washing method. Batch experiments were performed to identify the factors influencing extraction efficiency. The effects of the solid to liquid (S/L) ratio (1:2, 1:3, and 1:4), soil particle size, and extraction time on the removal capacity of Pb by HCl were evaluated. Soil samples were collected from two different areas: a slope area (SA) and a land area (LA) at the field. As results, the optimal conditions at 2.8 to 0.075 mm of particle size were 1:3 of the S/L ratio and 10 min of extraction time for SA, and 1:4 of the S/L ratio and 5 min of extraction time for LA. The characteristics of Pb desorption were adequately described by two-reaction kinetic models.
