To remove phosphorus from the effluent of public wastewater treatment facilities, hundreds of enhanced phosphorus treatment processes have been introduced nationwide. However, these processes have a few problems including excessive maintenance cost and sludge production caused by inappropriate coagulant injection. Therefore, the optimal decision of coagulant dosage and automatic control of coagulant injection are essential. To overcome the drawbacks of conventional phosphorus removal processes, the integrated sedimentation and dissolved air flotation(SeDAF) process has been developed and a demonstration plant(capacity: 100 ㎥/d) has also been installed. In this study, various jar-tests(sedimentation and / or sedimentation·flotation) and multiple regression analyses have been performed. Particularly, we have highlighted the decision-making algorithms of optimal coagulant dosage to improve the applicability of the SeDAF process. As a result, the sedimentation jar-test could be a simple and reliable method for the decision of appropriate coagulant dosage in field condition of the SeDAF process. And, we have found that the SeDAF process can save 30 - 40% of coagulant dosage compared with conventional sedimentation processes to achieve total phosphorus (T-P) concentration below 0.2 mg/L of treated water, and it can also reduce same portion of sludge production.

Evaporation heat transfer characteristics have been investigated experimentally when distilled water is sprayed on the outside wall of horizontal tubes in a evaporator. This problem is of particular interest in the design of evaporator of an absorption system. Hydrophilic surface treatment was employed to increase the wettability on copper tubes. The results indicate that evaporation heat transfer with hydrophilic tubes is shown to be 25-44% higher than that with bare tubes at evaporation pressure of 31.8 Torr(evaporation temperature$ 30^{\circ}C). Evaporation heat transfer rates of hydrophilic treatment tubes are improved substantially, comparing with those of conventional copper tubes in the wide range of operating parameters, such as water inlet temperatures, water mass flow rates and evaporation pressures.

Nanotechnology is the applied science which develops new materials and systems sized within 1 to 100 nanometer, and improves their physical, chemical, and biological characteristics by manipulating on an atomic and molecular scale. This nanotechnology has been applied to wide spectrum of industries resulting in production of various nanoparticles. It is expected that more nanoparticles will be generated and enter to natural water bodies, imposing great threat to potable water resources. However their toxicity and treatment options have not been throughly investigated, despite the significant growth of nanotechnology-based industries. The objective of this study is to provide fundamental information for the management of nanoparticles in water supply systems through extensive literature survey. More specifically, two types of nanoparticles are selected to be a potential problem for drinking water treatment. They are carbon nanoparticles such as carbon nanotube and fullerene, and metal nanoparticles including silver, gold, silica and titanium oxide. In this study, basic characteristics and toxicity of these nanoparticles were first investigated systematically. Their monitoring techniques and treatment efficiencies in conventional water treatment plants were also studied to examine our capability to mitigate the risk associated with nanoparticles. This study suggests that the technologies monitoring nanopartilces need to be greatly improved in water supply systems, and more advanced water treatment processes should be adopted for better control of these nanoparticles.

This study was performed to examine factors affecting the decompostion of nondegradable polluants(trichloroethylene(TCE), phenol) using ultrasonic irradiation. The TCE and phenol, which are major hazard compounds causing environmental pollution, were not decomposable pollutants by conventional treatment. The results show that the oxidation and reduction reaction of ultrasound produced $H_2O_2$, $H^+$ and $OH^-$ radical, which decomposed pollutants of TCE and phenol in water. It was confirmed that the ultrasonic irradiation showed an excellent removal efficiency for the nondegradable pollutants than any other processes, utilized in the treatment of organic compounds in the industrial wastewater. Conclusively, these results suggest that ultrasonic irradiation may be highly useful for the treatment of wastewaters contaminated organic pollutants, which is difficult to treat economically by conventional process.

본 연구는 진공포장 한우육의 냉수침지 숙성방법이 한우육의 연도 및 미생물증식에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 수행하였다. 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 근절길이는 냉수침지 처리구가 저장 3일째 유의적(p<0.05)으로 긴 것으로 나타났으며, 저 장 3일째를 제외 한 저 장기간 동안 유의적 인 차이는 없었으나 대조구에 비해 긴 경향을 보였다. 또한 유리칼슘 농도에 있어서도 저장 7일 째 냉수침지 처리구가 유의적(p<0.05)으로 높게 나타났으며, 역시 저장 7일째를 제외한 저장기간 동안 유의적인 차이는 없었으나 대조구에 비해 높은 경향을 보였다. 한편 전단가와 근원섬유 소편화 지수에 있어서는 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 두 처리구간에 있어서 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았지만, 냉수침지 처리구가 상대적으로 낮은 전단가와 높은 소편화지수의 경향을 보였다. 이 같은 결과는 냉수침지 숙성이 일반공기순환냉장고의 숙성보다 근절의 길이를 길게 하고, 근형질내 칼슘의 농도를 높이며, 소편화 지수를 높게 한 결과 연도를 향상시킬 수 있다는 가능성을 제시한 것으로 사료된다. 덧붙여, 총세균수는 일반공 기순환냉장실에 저장한 것에 비해 냉수침지 처리구가 유의적(p<0.05)으로 낮은 것으로 나타나, 온도의 변이를 줄이는 것에 기인하여 미생물의 성장억제에도 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.

한강을 상수원으로 하는 재래식 정수처리 시설의 각 단위공정으로부터 휴믹물질(HS; humic substances)을 분리하여 작용기 분포, 화학적 조성, FT-IR(Fourier transform infrared) 그리고 $^1H-NMR$(proton nuclear magnetic resonance) 스팩트럼을 분석하여 구조 및 화학적 특성을 평가하였다. HS의 농도분포는 정수처리 동안 47.2%에서 26.4%(0.97 mgC/L에서 0.54 mgC/L)로 단계적으로 감소하였다. HS 중 페놀기(phenolic groups)의 농도분포는 정수처리 동안 60.5%에서 21.8%($12.2{\sim}6.0\;{\mu}M/L$ as phenolic-OH)로 점차 감소하였으며, 카르복실기(carboxylic groups)의 경우 전염소처리 이후 39.5%($7.9\;{\mu}M/L$ as COOH)에서 46.9%($10.6\;{\mu}M/L$ as COOH)로 증가하였지만 응집 침전 그리고 모래여과 이후 34.2%($9.4\;{\mu}M/L$ as COOH)까지 단계적으로 감소하였다. 또한 원소분석과 FT-IR 및 $^1H-NMR$ 분석결과 정수처리 공정을 거치면서 카르복실기의 분율이 증가하고 방향족에 대한 지방족 양성자의 비($P_{Al}/P_{Ar}$)가 증가하는 것으로 조사되어 상대적으로 지방족 화합물의 물질분율이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 용존오존부상법(Dissolved Ozone Flotation; DOF)을 이용한 정수처리 효과를 파악하기 위하여 적정 오존 주입 농도와 오존 주입 농도별 처리 특성에 대해서 연구하였으며, 또한 용존공기부상법(Dissolved Air Flotation; DAF) 및 중력식 침전법(Conventional Gravity Sedimentation; CGS)과 DOF의 처리 성능을 비교하였다. 최적 오존 주입 농도를 산정하기 위한 실험에서 최적 오존 주입농도는 2.7 mg/L로 나타났으며, 오존 주입 농도가 증가할수록 탁도 및 KMnO$_4$ 소모량, UV$_{254}$ 흡수도, TOC 등과 같은 제거효율이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. DOF와 DAF, CGS의 처리성능을 비교한 결과 오존 주입 농도 2.7 mg/L로 운전한 DOF시스템의 탁도 제거효율은 88.9%, 유기물질 항목의 경우 KMnO$_4$ 소모량은 62.9%, TOC 47%, 그리고 UV$_{254}$ 흡수도 77.3% 그리고 THMFP 제거율의 경우 51.6%로 다른 두 공정보다 높거나 비슷하게 나타났다. 따라서 응집 부상 공정과 오존 산화 공정이 하나의 반응기에서 일어나는 DOF 시스템은 정수처리시설의 소유부지 감소와 기존 CGS 시스템에서 처리가 어려운 조류 및 용존성 유기물질의 제거를 통해 소독부산물의 생성을 감소시킴으로 향후 고도정수처리시스템으로 적용 가능성이 충분한 것으로 판단된다.

To prevent surface and underground water pollution, wastewater treatment is essential. Four bench-scale activated sludge units (10 L operational volumes) were operated at 5, 10 and $20^{\circ}C$ for evaluation of treatment efficiencies with typical wastewater from swine housing. The units were set for a 24-hour cycle. As compared to the conventional process, high removal efficiencies for organic substances, nitrogen and phosphorus in swine wastewater were obtained simultaneously with an intermittent aeration process (lAP). The NOx-N produced during an aeration period was immediately reduced to nitrogen gas (e.g. $N_2$ or $N_2O$) in the subsequent non-aeration periods, and nitrification in aeration periods occurred smoothly. Under these conditions, phosphorus removal occurred with the release of phosphorus during the non-aeration periods followed by the excess uptake of phosphorus in the activated sludge during aeration periods. It was confirmed that the lAP had a better ability to remove pollutants under both low temperatures and high nitrogen loading conditions than the ordinary method did. In addition to that, the total emission of $N_2O$ from lAP was reduced to approximately 1/50 of the conventional process for the same loading. By adopting an adequate aeration programme for individual swine wastewater treatment, this system will provide a promising means for nitrogen and phosphorus control without pH control or addition of methanol.

Many other countries have investigated the residual sludge treatment process to save the existing water resource and produce the high suspended solid concentration sludge. There are various methods for concentrating residual sludge, but the membrane system has received the most interest for its efficiency. The objective of this study was to evaluate the application of membrane filtration system for the residual sludge treatment. The experiment equipment was composed of Lab scale Crossflow tubular membrane filtration system. Generally, crossflow operation mode demands high electric cost mainly for the pump energy. So to cut off electric cost, very low Crossflow velocity was used in this experiment. Results confirmed that suspended solid concentration of residual sludge could be concentrated to 57,000mg/L in low Crossflow velocity tubular membrane system,. This concentration can be directly injected into the dehydrator. Based on the results, we know that the Crossflow tubular membrane system should be replaced conventional residual sludge treatment system.
