We have investigated the excitation-light source dependence of photo-catalytic efficiency for the benzene removal. The photo-catalytic module for the benzene removal is fabricated by a combination of GaN-based ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV GaN-LED) and $TiO_2$ thin film coated on an aluminum plate. The benzene reduction rates of 365 nm and 375 nm modules at 60 mA junction current are approximately $8.95\;\%/Hr$ and $9.2\;\%/Hr$, respectively, which indicates that 365 nm GaN-LED is more effective than 375 nm GaN-LED. The benzene reduction efficiency is also noticeably dependent on the excitation wavelength and excitation-light power, as well as it is increased with the shorter wavelength and higher excitation power. This result exhibits that UV GaN-LED is useful to remove the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) existing in the environment.

As the interest in environmental pollution resulting from recent industrial development is converging, wastewater treatment problem of dying processing is one of important pending issue. Usually, flow mediation earth and settling pond etc. of processing plant to handle water or wastewater. Mediation is the wastewater that flowed past settling pond than material of heavy particles, water weight colloid particles that big solids are removed but are suspensibility material settlement exclusion impossible. So, we need flocculation and coagulation action to remove materials from this colloid state. For flocculation and coagulation action chemical agents to add back, addition of chemical agents forms floc of could settle size. That is, shorten the sedimentation time and quality of processing water because promoting sedimentation doing to do fines or suspended solids and colloid can materials large size and also, flocculation to annex efficiency of filtration augment. Therefore, I executed this research to prove that improving organic matter and chromaticity of treated water of processing epochally using organic coagulant informed positive ion co-polymerization superior in color wastewater through this research.

The objective of this study was to invetigate the coagulation effects of landfill leachate by using Acid Mine Drainage(AND). The coagulation efficiency was investigated by mixing landfill leachate with F $e^{+3}$ solution earned by oxidation of pyrite(AMD). In the results of this experiment, it was found that the amount of removed COD and SS was approximately 30% respectively by mixing at the ratio of AMD three to leachate one. And it showed highest turbidity removal efficiency at all mixing ratio. Concentration of Fe was decreased with increasing mixing ratio, however it was increased inversely at mixing ratio 4. Optimal mixing ratio was 3 at the results obtained by leachate coagulation experiments. Also removal efficiency at mixing ratio 3 corresponded to 500mg/$\ell$ of FeC $l_3$ dosage. it was suggested that pretreatment by mixing of AMD and leachate remove both suspended organic material of leachate and metal of AMD.

Although facilities for the passive treatment of AMD (Acid Mine Drainage) are currently operating in Korea, their removal efficiency for heavy metals is relatively low in average (only 80%). Passive treatment system is composed of oxidation tank, SAPS (Successive Alkalinity Producing System), and wetland. In the treatment system adopted in korea, SAPS (Successive Alkalinity Producing System) plays a major role to remove about 65% of heavy metals through a precipitation. However, the efficiency of SAPS is limited due to the use of mushroom compost (MC) as a organic material and of limestone as a neutralizer. Therefore, this research was performed to search for alternative organic materials through the field test. We tested two types of mixed organic materials: 1) cow manure and spent oak (herein, CO) and 2) cow manure and sawdust (herein, CS). For comparison mushroom compost (herein, MC) was also tested. The result showed that the average Fe removal efficiency was 91.38% with CO, 85.19% with CS, and 91.58% with MC. Thus, CO can be effectively used as an alternative of MC in the SAPS system for heavy metals removal.

With a small particle size, specific surface area and chemical nature, Pd/Cu-Fe nanocomposites can efficiently remove the organic compounds. In order to understand the applicability for in situ remediation of contaminated groundwater, the degradation of p-nitrophenol by Pd/Cu-Fe nanoparticles was investigated. The degradation results demonstrated that these nanoparticles could effectively degrade p-nitrophenol and near 90% of degradation efficiency was achieved by Pd/Cu-Fe nanocomposites for 120 min treatment. The efficiency of degradation increased significantly when the Pd content increased from 0.05 wt.% and 0.10 wt.% to 0.20 wt.%. Meanwhile, the removal percentage of p-nitrophenol increased from 75.4% and 81.7% to 89.2% within 120 min. Studies on the kinetics of p-nitrophenol that reacts with Pd/Cu-Fe nanocomposites implied that their behaviors followed the pseudo-first-order kinetics. Furthermore, the batch experiment data suggested that some factors, including Pd/Cu-Fe availability, temperature, pH, different ions (SO42-, PO43-, NO3-) and humic acid content in water, also have significant impacts on p-nitrophenol degradation efficiency. The recyclability of the material was evaluated. The results showed that the Pd/Cu-Fe nanoparticles have good recycle performance, and after three cycles, the removal rate of p-nitrophenol is still more than 83%.

In this study, water purification system without coagulant was consisted of F/A and membrane to produce purified water which only uses physical treatment without coagulant. Because the use of coagulant has a possibility remaining of hazardous aluminum with our health. Especially, the Filtralite was reviewed the possibility to remove turbidity and organic material. It was found that the turbidity removal rate of Filtralite was 83~84%. It show that Filtralite has similar efficiency to sand-filter. But Filtralite has higher 50% removal rate of organic material than sand-filter due to well-developed pore on the surface of it. So, Filtralite could be used to substitute the sand-filter for the F/A process due to higher removal rate. And also coupled with activated carbon in F/A process, TMP was increased by TOC value. To prevent increasing TMP, media that has outstanding organic adsorption ability should be used.
