This study is about backwash condition and membrane fouling at continuous coagulation/ultrafiltration process in water treatment. The capacity of pilot plant was $0.06m^3/d$. The result of the test, Backwash cycle time and duration time had a significant effect on the efficiency of system and backwash. Backwash duration time was determined to be fixed in 30 seconds for the system with more than 95% recovery rate, It needed 30 minute backwash frequency. During the continuous operation, membrane fouling was analyzed by determining the filtration resistance ($R_i$) and cake layer resistance ($R_c$). At the initial stage, filtration resistance highly influenced the fouling behavior. But after 1.5 hours, cake layer resistance became more important than filtration resistant.

The performance of a newly designed wastewater treatment process equipped with an anaerobic and two intermittent aeration tanks operated alternately was investigated. During the experimental period, several types of cyclic operating schedules with different aeration and non aeration time were examined for the optimization. At all modes, the removals of organic matter and SS were highly achieved. With respect to T-N removal, however, the cycle length for aeration on/off affected the efficiencies. At the optimal operating mode, the ORP bending point indicating the disappearance of nitrate was observed. Considering the influent wastewater characteristics and cyclic operating schedules, it can be suggested that T-P removal is much more BOD/T-P ratio and/or its load dependant rather than the aeration on/off time. The results obtained from pilot-scale test showed the competitive advantage of this alternating process through an omission of nitrate recycle and operational flexibility against influent load variations when comparing with other continuous flow processes.

국내의 평균적인 토양오염도는 매년 증가하고 있으며, 오염물질의 지속성 및 잔류성이 큰 토양오염의 특성상 이를 복원하기 위해서는 막대한 비용이 소모될 것으로 추정된다. 우리나라에서는 토양 오염에 대한 사회적 관심이 증가함에 따라 1990년대 중반부터 토양 환경 관리와 복원을 위해 정책적으로 복원 기술의 개발과 오염토양 복원 사업을 추진하고 있다. 오염토양 복원 기술은 처리 위치별로 원위치 기술과 비원위치 기술로 나뉘며, 오염원의 제거방법에 따라 생물학적, 물리화학적, 열적 기술로 분류할 수 있다. 국내에서는 군부대 및 철도청 부지, 소규모의 유류 오염 지역에 대해 복원 사업을 실시한 사례가 대부분이며 석유화학 단지내의 오염 등은 회사 자체에서 내부적으로 처리하고 있어 일반에 공개되지는 않고 있지만 그 규모는 상당한 것으로 추산되고 있다. 대부분의 복원사업에는 가장 경제성이 입증된 토양증기추출법, 생물학적 통풍법과 같은 원위치 정화기술이 사용되었다. 최근에는 첨단 기술을 도입하여 환경친화적 토양 복원 기술을 개발하려는 연구가 진행 중이며, 이러한 연구의 예로서 나노 기술과 분자 생물학적 기법을 이용한 복원 기술 개발, 개별 기술의 한계를 극복하기 위한 통합기술 개발 등이 있다. 효율적인 오염토양의 복원을 위해서는 오염물질과 오염부지의 특성을 고려하여 연구 대상 기술의 현장 적용성을 높여야 하며, 무엇보다 토양에 대한 인식 변화와 환경 개선을 위한 지속적인 노력이 필요하다.

Heavy metal pollution in agricultural field near the abandoned metal mines is a critical problem in Korea. General remediation technique is to apply chemical amendments and soil covering. However, there is no specific guidelines for conducting soil covering. Therefore, main objective of this research was to determine optimum soil covering technique with microcosm experiment. Three different chemical amendments, lime stone (LS), steel slag (SS), and acid mine drainage sludge (AMDS), were examined and varied soil covering depth, 20, 30, 40cm, was applied to determine optimum remediation technique. Bioavailable heavy metal concentration in soil and total concentration of heavy metals in crop were monitored. Result showed that average heavy metal concentration in varied soil covering depth was ordered as 40 cm ($14.5mg\;kg^{-1}$) < 20 cm ($14.6mg\;kg^{-1}$) < 30 cm ($16.0mg\;kg^{-1}$) and also heavy metal concentration in crop was ordered as 40 cm ($100{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$) < 30 cm ($183{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$) < 20 cm ($190{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$). In terms of chemical amendments, average heavy metal concentration was decreased as AMDS ($150{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$) < SS ($151{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$) < LS ($154{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$). Overall, depth of soil covering should be over 30 cm to minimize bioaccumulation of heavy metals and SS and LS could be applied in heavy metal contaminated soil for remediation purposes.

In this study, to increase removal efficiency of traditional electrokinetic treatment and to reduce contaminant load of wastewater that discharged through cathode compartment, enhanced electrode compartments were investigated. Hydroxide precipitation near the cathode electrode that encounter during traditional electrokinetic treatment were prevented by enhanced electrokinetic remediation test with newly invented electrode compartment. And heavy metal concentration in wastewater showed 0 ppm thus, additive post-treatment cost were not needed.

Immobilization isotherms for methyl tort-buty1 ether (MTBE) in sodium dodecy1 sulfate(SDS) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) were investigated for application to micellar enhanced remediation. Headspace solid-phase microextraction was used to analyze immobilization isotherms. Maximum partitioning coefficients of MTBE were 48 L/mol and 9 L/mol for SDS and CPC, respectively, The values decreased gradually as the MTBE mole fraction in the micelles increased.

In this study, variation of electrochemical parameters and characteristics of lead immobilization due to phosphoric acid injection in soil were studied during electrokinetic remediation of lead contaminated soil. TCLP result showed about 100% of soil was satisfied TCLP regulation criteria. And injected ion from cathode reservoir by ionmigration was proportionate to concentration of phosphoric acid and elapsed time. Therefore, when removal is infeasible or not cost-effective, in situ immobilization method would be more effective.

본 연구는 소수성 유기물로 오염된 지하수를 복원할경우, 식품등급의계면활성제와 NaOH 또는 NaCl 의 효과를 연구하기 위하여 주상실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과 게면활성제와 NaOH의 혼합 사용이 가장 효과적이었으며, $Na^{+}$의 counter-ion 효과보다는 OH-의 pH효과가 더욱 중요한 인자가 됨이 밝혀졌다.

The electrokinetic remediation tests for natural soil contaminated by lead are performed on unsaturated conditions, in which the degree of saturation is controlled through the changes in water content and the constant unit weight. At the degree of saturation of 70% the small acid range and electrical potential is developed. The changes in the water content are little above the saturation of 90%. But it is increased by 1.7 times at the degree of saturation of 70%. Finally, the efficiency of extraction is improved at 70% than 100%.

Soil washing was applied as a supplementary step of soil remediation at a petroleum oil contaminated site. A soil washing system was designed, assembled, and operated at the site. A field screening method with PetroFlagTM was adopted at the site to find the exact boundary of contaminated area as soil excavation progressed and to verify the concentration of treated soil. The system operation showed the cleanup efficiency of 90% at the compatible cost compared to other methods.
