In this study, we have investigated to find optimal pre-treatment flocculation condition by analyzing the floc growth rate with mixing conditions and the membrane permeation flux for pre-treatment step of the membrane process. The higher mixing intensity showed a constant floc size index (FSI) values, and lower mixing intensity increased the degree of dispersion of the FSI values. Results of comparing the distribution characteristics of the FSI value and the permeation flux were more effective in increasing flux when the FSI values were 0.2 or higher. The degree of dispersion of FSI was relatively large in 40 rpm mixing condition compared to 120 rpm. In 40 rpm mixing condition, it decreased the permeation flux compared to 120 rpm because various sizes of flocs were distributed. Coagulation-UF membrane process enhanced 30%~40% of the flux rate compare to UF alone process, and the coagulation-MF process increased up to 5% of the flux rate compare to MF alone process. Pre-treatment, that is, coagulation process, has been found to be less effects on relatively larger pore size for MF membrane. For UF membrane, the flux was a little bit same when applying only the rapid mixing process or rapid mixing with slow mixing processes together. In case of MF membrane, the flux was improved when rapid mixing process applied with slow mixing process together.

Many plants have been improved to adapt the target of the biological treatment processes changed from organics to nutrients since the water quality criteria of effluent was reinforced and included T-N and T-P for the municipal wastewater treatment plant. To meet the criteria of T-N and T-P, the conventional biological reactor such as aeration tank in activated sludge system is changed to the BNR (biological nutrient removal) processes, which are typically divided into three units as anaerobic, anoxic and oxic tank. Therefore, the solid separation process should be redesigned to fit the BNR processes in case of the application of the DAF (dissolved air flotation) process as an alternatives because the solid-liquid separation characteristics of microbial flocs produced in the BNR processes are also different from that of activated sludge system as well. The results of this study revealed that the microbial floc of the anaerobic tank was the hardest to be separated among the three steps of the unit tanks for the BNR processes. On the contrary, the oxic tank was best for the removal efficiency of nutrients as well as suspended solid. In addition, the removal efficiency of nutrients was much improved under the chemical coagulation treatment though coagulation was not indispensable with a respect to the solid separation. On the other hand, in spited that the separation time for the microbial floc from the BNR processes were similar to the typical particles like clay flocs, over $2.32{\times}10^3$ ppm of air volume concentration was required to keep back the break-up of the bubble-floc agglomerates.

The blue-green algae which caused odor problem in the tap water are difficult to precipitate in sedimentation basin and clogged the filter void rapidly. The studies of this paper were not only oxidation, coagulation and sedimentation processes for effectively removing blue-green algae but yellow clay and polyamine for verification as coagulants aids. The results of this research are summarized as follows: Higher ozone dose(C) and longer contact time(T) were needed for a high degree of removing blue-green algae efficiency. the removal rate of blue-green algae was proportional to the $C\times T$ value. The removal percent of chlorophyll-a by sedimentation and filter without pre-ozonation was about 75% but 1 mg/L pre-ozonation could increase the removal percent of chlorophyll-a to 99% and more pre-ozonation could remove completely. Though the removal efficiency of turbidity could increased by high dose of chlorination, the dissolved organic carbon was increased. More chlorine dose from 4 to 10 mg/L dissolved organic carbon was decreased. Using yellow clay as coagulant aids increased density of floc so the settling velocity of floc become rising but polyamine could not increase settling velocity of floc though it could formated large floc.

본 연구는 점착성 부유사의 입도분포에 적합한 이론적 확률분포형을 찾는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 유의수준 5%에 대해 적합도 검정을 수행한 결과, 실험실 실험자료와 현장실험 자료에서 측정된 플럭입도분포는 다른 결과를 나타냈다. 현장실험으로부터 얻어진 표본자료의 경우 왼쪽으로 치우친 지수분포의 형태를 나타내며, Gamma 분포가 가장 우수하였다. 실험실실험 자료의 경우 표본자료가 양의 왜도를 가지며 GEV 분포가 가장 적합하였다. 많은 연구에서 점착성 유사의 입도분포로 가정되는 2매개변수 Lognormal 분포의 경우 현장실험 자료와 실험실실험 자료 모두 적합하지 않았으며, 위치매개변수를 추가하여 3매개변수 Lognormal 분포 적용 시 점착성 유사의 입도분포를 모사할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

이군집 응집현상은 수자원환경에서 점착성 유사가 결합-해체의 과정을 통해 응집핵-응집체의 이군집 입자크기분포 (Biomodal Floc Size Distribution)를 형성하는 일련의 과정을 의미한다. 본 연구는 저난류 및 고난류 두 가지 조건에서 수행한 응집-침전관 실험결과를 바탕으로 이군집 응집모형(TCPBE: Two Class Population Balance Equation)의 적용성을 단일군집 응집모형(SCPBE: Single Class Population Balance Equation) 및 다군집 응집모형(MCPBE: Multi Class Population Balance Equation)과 비교 평가하였다. 기존 SCPBE에 비하여, TCPBE는 응집핵-응집체의 상호작용 및 침강속도차에 따른 응집 기작을 모의할 수 있었다. 또한, 3개의 연립미분방정식을 가진 TCPBE는 30개 미분방정식을 가진 다군집 응집모형(MCPBE: Multi Class Population Balance Equation)과 대등한 모의 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서 TCPBE는 이군집 응집현상을 모의 할 수 있는 가장 단순한 모델로 검증되었고, 향후 수자원환경이나 수처리 공정에 다양하게 적용할 수 있으리라 판단된다.

Effects of coagulation types on flocculation were investigated by using a photometric dispersion analyzer (PDA) as an on-line monitoring technique in this study. Nakdong River water were used and alum and ferric chloride were used as coagulants. The aim of this study is to compare the coagulation characteristics of alum and ferric chloride by a photometric dispersion analyzer (PDA). Floc growing rates ($R_v$) in three different water temperatures ($4^{\circ}C$, $16^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) and coagulants doses (0.15 mM, 0.20 mM and 0.25 mM as Al, Fe) were measured. The floc growing rate ($R_v$) by alum was 1.8~2.8 times higher than that of ferric chloride during rapid mixing period, however, for 0.15 mM~0.25 mM coagulant doses the floc growing rate ($R_v$) by ferric chloride was 1.1~2.3 times higher than that of alum in the slow mixing period at $16^{\circ}C$ water temperature. Reasonable coagulant doses of alum and ferric chloride for turbidity removal were 0.1 mM (as Al) and 0.2 mM (as Fe), respectively, and the removal efficiency of those coagulant doses showed 94% for alum and 97% for ferric chloride. The appropriate coagulant dose of alum and ferric chloride for removing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) showed about 0.3 mM (as Al, Fe) and at this dosage, DOC removal efficiencies were 36% and 44%, and ferric chloride was superior to the alum for removal of the DOC in water.

초고속응집침전공정(URC)은 가중응집제(WCA)를 첨가하고 슬러지를 반송시켜 응결핵으로서의 역할을 수행시킴으로서 floc의 성장속도를 향상시키고, 입자표면의 흡착을 활성화하여 유기물, 중금속, 인 등 수중에 존재하는 오염물을 보다 효율적으로 제거하며, 기존의 응집 공정에 비하여 침전성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 현재까지 하수처리장과 하천, 호소에서 수행된 URC pilot-test와 Jar-test의 결과를 비교 검토하여 가중 응집제와 반송 슬러지에 대한 오염물 제거특성에 대한 연구가 수행되었으며, 수자원의 재이용을 위한 가능성을 평가하였다.

본 연구에서는 재생지를 원료로 하여 화장지를 만드는 제지공장의 원폐수를 사용하였으며, 폐수처리의 기초적 전처리 방법으로 zeta potential을 측정 (원성연, 1995 : 이학래등, 1996) 하여 적정 응집제 투입량을 선정하고, 응집제를 투입량에 따른 탁도 (Turbidity), 총고형물 (suspended solids : SS), 화학적 산소요구량 (chemical oxygen demand : COD)을 측정하여 최적 응집제 투입량을 검토하였다. 또한 응집 침전의 효율을 결정하는 가장 중요한 평가항목인 floc의 기계적 강도(임호주, 2002)를 측정해 봄으로써 기계적 강도가 양호하면서 응집효과가 좋은 최적 조건을 검토하였다. 따라서 최적 응집제 투입량에 따른 응집제의 사용량 감소에 의한 실제 공장에서 약품비용의 절감 효과와 폐수처리 효율의 극대화를 기대 할 수가 있다고 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 세가지 중금속 (Cd(II), Cu(II), Zn(II))에 대하여 활성슬러지 미생물 folc의 중금속 흡착 및 축적 작용에 의한 중금속 제거과정을 실험을 통해 연구하였다. 회분식 실험을 통해 pH, 중금속 농도, MLSS 농도 및 온도에 따른 반응시간별 중금속 제거율과 축적량을 측정하였다. 활성슬러지 공정에 의한 중금속제거는 흡착 및 축적에 의해 중금속이 슬러지에 고농도로 농축되어 일어났다. 회분식 실험결과 중금속의 흡착평형은 단시간내에 일어났으며, 미생물 floc과 중금속이온과의 결합세기는 Cu(II)>Zn(II)>Cd(II)의 순으로 나타났다.

The objectives of this research are to investigate coagulation efficiencies of two coagulants l.e., alum and polyaluminum chloride and to understand effects of the coagulants on membrane fouling in microfiltration. The turbidity of supernatant from alum coagulation was increased with increasing doses whereas the turbidity from PACl coagulation was maintained at the low values. The observed injection volume of PACl for the same removal was approximately 30 percent less than alum, which produced a low sludge volume. The settling velocity of PACl flocs was greater than alum flocs. The results corresponded well with floc size measurements. Flux decline from alum coagulation was significant due in part to small sizes of flocs. At the low dose, alum floc had less specific cake resistance than PACl floc. However, as the dosage was increased, the increases in specific cake resistances of alum was substantial. Alum coagulation pretreatment needs careful operation to reduce membrane fouling by flocs. In general, PACl coagulants were more effective than alum coagulants for pretreatment of membrane processes because PACl showed the better performance in coagulation and membrane fouling.
