The removal of PCBs (Polychlorinated biphenyls) in aqueous phase was investigated in the ultraviolet (UV) process, ultrasonics (US) process and ultraviolet/ultrasonic (UV/US) process using PCB No.7 and Aroclor 1260. For PCB No.7 relatively high removal efficiency over 90% was obtained during 20 min in the UV process and UV/US process. On the other hand, lower removal efficiency of 50 - 70% was achieved for it consisted of individual congeners of PCBs containing 3~8 of chlorine atom. It was found that the dechlorination reaction (the photolytic cleavage of C-Cl bond) was considered as a main removal mechanism in the UV process while PCBs were removed by cavitation-induced radical reaction in the US process. No significant dechlorination occurred in the US process. Consequently, it was suggested that the UV process or UV/US process was applicable for the removal of PCBs in aqueous phase in terms of the removal efficiency and operation time. In addition, the application of saturating gas such as Ar and Air could be considered to control redox condition and enhance the severity of acoustic cavitation for the removal of PCBs.

A water reuse system was designed for a demonstration plant by combining fiber filtration and electrolysis. A discharged dye wastewater after treated with biomedia was used in this study. It was found that an additional removal of suspended solids (SS) was feasible with 2-stage filtration while electrolysis was not effective. Also, $COD_{cr}$ and $COD_{Mn}$ were not removed with 2 -stage filtration but electrolysis resulted in about 26.9% additional removal. This indicates that electrolysis play an important role in organic removal. Removal of T-N and T-P was negligible with 1 and 2-stage fiber filtration and low-level electrolyte. However, with 2000 ppm of electrolyte, their removal efficiencies were about 83.1 and 60%, respectively, suggesting that the removal rates are well associated with the electrolyte concentrations. With high-level electrolyte, colority was removed about 82% while chlorine ions were removed only about 10%. Therefore, to treat underground water containing high-level salinity in the follow-up study, based on the results in this paper, a combined system with selection of additional unit process and reverse osmosis will be designed.

도금폐수의 처리는 폐수의 pH, 중금속 및 시안(CN)함유에 따라 다양하고 복잡한 공정이 적용된다. 이중 시안(CN)의 처리는 차아염소산(NaOCl)을 이용한 알칼리 염소 처리법이 일반적으로 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N)와 시안(CN)이 동시에 함유될 경우 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N)의 처리를 위해 차아염소산(NaOCl) 이 과다하게 소비되는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구는 시안(CN)처리에 있어서 1) 알칼리염소법에서 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N)농도에 따른 차아염소산(NaOCl)의 소모량을 조사하고 2) ferrate (VI)가 시안(CN)을 선택적으로 처리할 수 있는지를 평가하였다. 모의폐수를 이용한 실험결과 알칼리염소법에서는 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N)농도가 높을수록 시안(CN)의 제거율이 감소하였으며 차아염소산(NaOCl)의 소비량이 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N) 농도에 따라 선형적으로 증가하였다. Ferrate (VI)를 이용한 시안(CN) 제거에서는 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N) 농도에 관계없이 시안(CN)의 제거를 확인하였으며 이때 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N)의 제거율은 낮아 ferrate (VI)가 시안(CN)을 선택적으로 제거함을 확인하였다. Ferrate (VI)의 시안(CN) 제거효율은 pH가 낮을수록 높게 나타났고 ferrate (VI) 주입량에 관계없이 99% 이상을 보였다. 실제 도금폐수에 적용한 결과에서는 ferrate (VI)와 시안(CN)의 투입 몰비 1:1에서 99% 이상의 높은 제거율을 보였으며 이는 화학양론 반응식의 몰비와 일치하는 결과로 모의 폐수와 동일하게 암모니아성 질소(NH₃-N) 및 기타오염물질이 함유된 실제 폐수에서도 선택적으로 시안(CN)을 제거하는 것으로 확인되었다.

As the concentration of ammonium nitrogen could be reached 2～3 mg/L in the winter in the river. It was clear that the excessive concentration of chlorinated organics could be produced with the increase of chlorine addition to remove ammonium nitrogen. In the innovative ammonium nitrogen removal process, zeolite adsorption is very efficient as substitute for rapid sand filtration without other adverse quality change in the water. This study is conducted to evaluate the feasibility of ammonium nitrogen removal and regeneration by zeolite adsorption in drinking water treatment. Also, the reuse possibility of zeolite is evaluated to change the removal efficiency of ammonium nitrogen through several times of regeneration. The ammonium nitrogen was not removed in sand filter, but it was almost removed in zeolite filter during 7 days. The sand and zeolite filters have a similar result of turbidity removal. Therefore, zeolite filtration was confirmed the removal of turbidity and ammonium nitrogen as a media. When compared KCl with NaCl as a chemical for zeolite regeneration, it is demonstrated that KCl was more efficient than NaCl in the ability of zeolite regeneration. The adsorption rate of ammonium nitrogen was almost not decreased in the results of several times of regeneration. It is indicated that both zeolite and regeneration solution were possible to reuse without variation of regeneration rate through this study.

Conventional coagulation is still the main treatment process for algae removal in water treatment. The coagulation efficiency can be significantly improved by the preoxidation of algae-containing water. Jar test was conducted to determine the optimal condition for the removal of diatoms, especially Cyclotella sp. by preoxidation and the subsequent coagulation. The effects of various concentration of PAC (Polyaluminum chloride) on coagulation with and without preoxidation using chlorine or potassium permanganate at different pHs (7.7 and 9.0) were evaluated. At pH 7.7, preoxidation with 2ppm $Cl_2$ followed by coagulation with 7.5 ppm PAC coagulant could reduce Cyclotella sp. concentration by 86%. At pH 9.0, preoxidation with 1 mg $KMnO_4/L$ followed by coagulation with 12.5 ppm PAC coagulant reduced Cyclotella sp. concentration by 85%. Non-linear regression was applied to determine the optimal condition. At pH 7.7 and 9.0, R was over 0.9, respectively. The pH of algal blooming water is over 9.0. Algae (diatom; Cyelotella sp.) can be controlled in the following ways: preoxidation with 1 mg $KMnO_4/L$ followed by coagulation with 12.5 ppm PAC coagulant can remove 80% algae from water. If water pH is adjusted to 7.7, it was expected that less amount of coagulant (7.5 or 10 mg PAC /L) after preoxidation ($Cl_2$ 2 ppm or $KMnO_4$ 0.33, 1 ppm) would be needed to achieve similar level of algae removal. The oxidation with 0.33ppm $KMnO_4$ followed by coagulation with 7.5 ppm PAC coagulant was preferable due to cost-effectiveness of treatment condition and color problem after treatment.
