One of the main problems to constitute control method on biologically oriented wastewater purification processes, e.g. activated sludge process, sequential batch reactor, rotating bio-disk contactor, etc. is that it is hard to control the target component directly. For instance, while biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and chemical oxygen demand are the key components to check the process performance, one may not control them directly since they are the results of microbial activities related to numerous physiochemical factors. Therefore controllers for bioprocess should be designed to make favorable condition for microorganisms´ living, e.g. dissolved oxygen level favorable, mixed liquor suspended solids concentration suitable ...

가막만 소호 인근해역의 용존산소 농도에 따른 등물 플랑크톤 군집 동태를 연구하기 위해 2005년 8월 22일 부터 9월 15일까지 연구를 실시하였다. 본 연구결과 저층의 용존산소 농도가 $3mgL^{-1}$ 이하일 때는 동물플랑크톤 출현 개체수는 현저히 낮게 나타나거나 전혀 나타나지 않았다. 수층별 분포와 출현 개체수에 대한 저층의 저산소화 영향을 연구한 결과, 용존산소 농도는 저층으로 갈수록 낮게 나타났으며, 연구해역의 동물플랑크톤 출현 개체수는 대부분 표층에서 많게 나타났다. 연구 해역의 수층별 동물플랑크톤 총 출현 개체수를 분산분석 (ANOVA-test)을 실시한 결과 유의한 차이를 나타냈다 (P<0.05).동물플랑크톤의 전체적인 출현 개체수에서는 요각류 유생, Oithona sp., 그리고 유종섬모충류가 용존산소농도가 $3mgL^{-1}$이하인 수층에서 낮게 나타났다. 결과 적으로, 이러한 환경 조건은 가막만 소호 인근해역의 동물플랑크톤 수층 분포에 영향을 주는 환경요인으로 용존산소 농도에 의해서 조절되고 있음을 확인할 수 있다.

This study investigates the treatment of pigment wastewater using a sequential batch reactor (SBR) followed by dissolved ozone flotation-pressurized ozone oxidation treatement (DOF-$PO_2$). The process efficiency has been evaluated at the lab scale on the basis of water quality parameters. In addition, the effect of pure oxygen and air was investigated on the removal of COD, BOD, and TN in the SBR process. It was observed that under comparable conditions the removal efficiencies of these water quality parameters using pure oxygen and air were similar. The effect of the recycle rate was also investigated for its impact on the water quality parameters using different ozone dissolving pressures in a DOF process in order to optimise conditions. The results conclude that the use of an SBR and ozone contact by DOF-$PO_2$ is a highly effective treatment for pigment wastewater and aids in the achievement of effluent discharge criteria.

The purpose of this study is to investigate characteristics of total phosphorus (TP) and phosphate phosphorous ($PO_4$-P) concentrations in ponded water and redox potential (Eh) in paddy soil during the growing season. The TP and $PO_4$-P concentrations showed twice peak values after basal dressing and tillering fertilization. The ratio of $PO_4$-P to TP showed low values (0.07~0.18), indicating that most of phosphorus is particlulate. The $PO_4$-P concentrations significantly decreased with dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations. The Eh showed high values (179~636 mV) under non-ponded aerobic condition, but low values (74~112 mV) under ponded anaerobic condition The TP and $PO_4$-P concentrations in ponded water increased shortly after tillering fertilization even if phosphorus was not applied. This may be due to the release of dissolved phosphorus from the bottom sediment and its associated algal and water flea blooms under anaerobic condition. Therefore, proper water management should be needed shortly after tillering fertilization.

The inhibition of pitting corrosion failure of copper sprinkler tubes in wet sprinkler systems was studied. First, an apparatus and technology for removing air in the sprinkler tubes by vacuum pumping and then filling the tubes with water were developed. Using this apparatus and technology, three methods for inhibiting the pitting corrosion of the copper sprinkler tubes installed in several apartment complexes were tested. The first one was filling the sprinkler tubes with water bubbled by high-pressure nitrogen gas to reduce the dissolved oxygen concentration to lower than 2 ppm. In the second method, the dissolved oxygen concentration of water was further reduced to lower than 0.01 ppm by sodium sulfite. In the third method, the sprinkler tubes were filled with benzotriazole (BTAH) dissolved in water. The third method was the most effective, reducing the failure frequency of the sprinkler tubes due to pitting corrosion by more than 80%. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses confirmed that a Cu-BTA layer was well coated on the inside surface of the corrosion pit, protecting it from corrosion. A potentiodynamic polarization test showed that BTAH should be very effective in reducing the corrosion rate of copper in the acidic environment of the corrosion pit.

In the summer of 2008 (August 4-14), vertical and horizontal distributions of inorganic nutrients and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were measured in the southwestern East Sea. Concentrations of DOC were determined for the first time in the southwestern East Sea using the high-temperature combustion oxidation (HTCO) method, and results were compared with those measured by another laboratory. Concentrations of DOC ranged from 58 to 104 ${\mu}M$ in the upper 200 m, showing a typical decreasing pattern with depth. Generally, concentrations of DOC were relatively lower, with higher nutrient concentrations, in the upper layer of the coastal upwelling zone. Concentrations of DOC ranged from 54 to 64 ${\mu}M$ in the deep Ulleung Basin (200-1500 m), and were higher than those in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. In association with rapid vertical ventilation of the euphotic, this difference indicates a larger accumulation of semi-labile DOC in the deep East Sea than in the major oceans. A correlation between apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) and DOC in the deep ocean of the East Sea revealed that only a small portion (<10%) of the sinking DOC, relative to the sinking particulate organic carbon (POC), contributes to microbial degradation. Our results present an important data set of DOC in the East Sea, which plays a critical role in carbon cycle modeling and sequestration.

We studied the appearance and proliferation of red tide organisms from March, 1998, to February, 1999, in the Jindong Bay. There were two red tide events during investigation, and we found that the dominant species Ceratium furca in May and Gymnodinium sanguineum in September, 1998. At surface, temperature and salinity showed 18.3~19.7$^{\circ}C$ and 30.6~30.9 psu in May and 25.6~27.$0^{\circ}C$, 28.0~28.5 psu in September, respectively. When the red tide occurred, the water mass stable. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen(DIN) and dissolved inorganic phosphate(DIP) in Jindong Bay showed seasonal variability. In May, the nitrogen was a limited nutrient in which the ratio of DIN versus DIP was less than 16 (Redfield ratio), while in September phosphate. During June to September, 1998, phosphate acted as a limited nutrient due to the increased river run-off from land. In May, chlorophyll-a, dissolved oxygen(DO) and chemical oxygen demand(COD) showed higher than 20$\mu\textrm{g}$/$\ell$, 10mg/$\ell$ and 5.0mg/$\ell$, respectively. In September, they showed in turns 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/$\ell$, 10mg/$\ell$ and 10mg/$\ell$, respectively.

A fiber optic oxygen sensor has been employed to monitor the concentrations of dissolved oxygen in a bioreactor. The characteristics of fiber optic oxygen sensor was investigated, e.g. the dependency of agitation rate on the oxygen measurement and also the dependence of temperature on the performance of fiber optic oxygen sensor etc. We have also applied to monitor the concentrations of dissoved oxygen in real cultivation processes by using the fiber optic oxygens sensor. The fiber optic oxygen sensor can be applied to measure the concentration of metabolites by immobilizing some enzymes, e.g. glucose oxidase and also employed for the environmental technology.

The assay on microbial dehydrogenase activity by using TTC was investigated. The experimental results are summarized as follows: 1. The TF production was affected by dissolved oxygen. Dissolved oxygen in samples could be effectively removed by adding $Na_{2}SO_{3}$ as reductant prior to incubation. 2. The toxic effect on TF formation was observed at up to 0.1% of final TTC concentration when VSS concentration was 2.7g/l. As the VSS concentration increased the effect decreased. 3. It was clearly revealed that the TF generation rate decreased with increasing VSS concentration. The dilution of sludge could be applicable when VSS level is below 3.5g/l. 4. The TF production of endogenous phase (De) could be used as a measure for the viable fraction of sludge over various sludge ages. The additional TF production (Ds) due to extracellular substrate responded to De, not to VSS concentration.
