This study examined effects of the fermented leachate of food waste (FLFW) on nitrogen and phosphorous removal for domestic wastewater containing a low carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratio in sequencing batch reactor (SBR). When the FLFW was not supplied in the process, release of phosphorus and excessive intake was not observed at both anaerobic and aerobic stages. On the other hand, when the FLFW was gradually added, active release of phosphorus and intake of phosphorus was noticed at an anaerobic stage and aerobic stage, respectively, resulting in improved phosphorus removal efficiency. The removal efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus was increased from 75% and 37% (R-1, control test) to 97% and 80% (R-4, the highest substrate ratio test), respectively. In addition, although activity of the nitrogen oxidizing microorganisms was reduced when the reaction temperature was decreased to $10^{\circ}C$, the phosphorus removal efficiency was shown to increase with the addition of FLFW, indicating an independence from temperature. Overall, this study suggests that an efficient nutrients removal process can be successfully employed into a SBR when the FLFW is added to a wastewater which has a low C/N ratio.

In this research, single-, two- and four-stage intermittently aerated activated sludge system were investigated for simultaneous removal of nitrogen and phosphorus with swine wastewater. For the comparison of removal efficiency, conventional activated sludge system was operated. Operational conditions of intermittently aerated activated sludge system were SRT 20day, HRT 24hr and aeration/nonaeration time 1hr/1hr, respectively. Nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiency in Intermittently aerated activated sludge system was upgraded compare with conventional activated sludge system. In single-stage intermittently aerated activated sludge system, release-uptake of $PO_4^{3-}-P$ was observed very well but, phosphosrus removal in effluent was not effective. In single-stage intermittently aerated activated sludge system, release-uptake of $PO_4^{3-}-P$ in first reactor, was observed very well but, in following reactor, $PO_4^{3-}-P$ concentation showed almost no change. T-N removal efficiency in conventional activated sludge system, single-, two-, and four-stage intermittently aerated activated sludge system were 48, 87, 90.9 and 95.5%, respectively, and phosphorus removal efficiency were 48, 75, 97 and 95%, respectively. Intermittently aerated activated sludge system as a alternative processes of conventional system leads to meet satisfactory effleunt with only on/off aeration regulation and save energy for aeration.

An easier way of understanding the BNR system was proposed from the study on substrate, nutrient removal tendency, microbial community and its metabolic function by applying the municipal settled sewage. During the anaerobic period, the phosphorus release rate per VFACOD we varied depending on the phosphorus content in the sludge. When the phosphorus content in the sludge was $6\%$ VSS, according to influent VFACOD, the phosphorus release rate and PHA production were $0.35 gPO_4P/gVFACOD$ and 1.0 gPHA/gVFACOD, respectively. The $NO_3N$ requirement for the phosphorus uptake as an electron acceptor was about $0.5 gNO_3N/gPO_4P_{uptake}$ based on the proposed equation with PHA, biomass, production, and the concentration of phosphorus release/uptake. Bacterial-community analysis of the sludge, as determined by FISH and 16SrDNA characterization FISH, revealed that the beta-subclass proteobacteria were the most abundant group ($27.9\%$ of the proteobacteria-specific probe EUB338), and it was likely that representative of the beta-subclass played key roles in activated sludge. The next dominant group found was the gamma-protebacteria ($15.4\%$ of probe EUB338). 16S rDNA clone library analysis showed that the members of${\beta}$- and ${\gamma}$-proteobacteria were also the most abundant groups, and $21.5\%$ (PN2 and PN4) and $15.4\%$ (PN1 and PN5) of total clones were the genera of denitrifying bacteria and PAO, respectively. Prediction of the microbial community composition was made with phosphorus content (Pv, $\%$ P/VSS) in wasted sludge and profiles of COD, PHA, $PO_4P,\;and\;NO_3N$ in an anaerobic-anoxic SBR unit. Generally, the predicted microbial composition based upon metabolic function, i.e., as measured by stoichiometry, is fairly similar to that measure by the unculturable dependent method. In this study, a proposal was made on he microbial community composition that was more easily approached to analyze the reactor behavior.

본 연구는 물과 토양에서 pH와 상등액을 변화 시켜었을 때 인과 탁도의 행태에 관해 연구 하였다. 탁도의 인 용출율은 pH 4 이하 또는 pH 7 이상일 때 증가 되었고, 토양으로 부터 탁도 발생율은 pH가 증가하면 증가하며, pH 4 보다 커지면 급격히 상승한 후 pH 6 이상에서 안정화된다. 용존성인은 2-24시간까지 증가 후 안정화 됐고, 탁도 역시 24 시간까지 정점에 도달한 후 96시간까지 감소됨. 시료상 등수를 교체를 하면 용존성인과 탁도는 감소한다. 시료를 pH 6에서 pH 10으로 증가시키고, 상등액 교체를 1회에서 4회로 동시에 증가시킬 때 용존성인과 탁도의 행태는 유사하다. 이 결과로 용존성인과 탁도는 pH와 직접적인 연관이 있다고 사료되며, 호수는 pH 7-10 정도이기 때문에 이 결과는 대단히 중요하다.

Laboratory scale experiments were conducted to investigate the removal characteristics of nitrogen and phosphorus by the variation of aeration time in four sequencing batch reactors (SBRs). In R1 which has the shortest aeration time as 1 h, MLVSS concentration in reactor decreased by the wash-out of biomass because of the poor sedimentation. The TOC removal efficiencies were almost similar in 3 reactors except R1. At the low aeration time as 1 h, the nitrification was severely inhibited by the deficiency of oxygen. ${NH_4}^+$-N removal efficiency was decreased by the decrease of aeration time. At the aeration time over 2 h, the phosphorus removal efficiency was not affected by the variation of aeration time. The nitrification was inhibited but the phosphorus release and uptake was not inhibited by the decrease of low aeration time. Therefore, we can see that the phosphorus removal microorganisms are superior to nitrification microorganisms in oxygen utilization.

퇴적물로부터 용출되는 영양염류가 인공호수인 남양호의 수질에 미치는 영향을 예측하기 위하여, 실험실에서 퇴적물의 조건을 호기 및 혐기조건으로 설정한 후 영양염류의 용출속도를 측정하였다. 퇴적물로부터 유기물과 질소의 용출은 일어나지 않는 것으로 판단된다. 인산염 인과 총인의 경우 수체 내 산소조건에 따라 용출 양상이 달랐는데, 혐기조건에서는 인이 용출되지 않은 반면, 호기 조건에서는 많은 양의 인이 용출되었다. 실험 결과를 기초로 호기조건에서 인의 용출 속도를 계산한 결과 인산염 인의 경우 $1.01\sim2.48$ mg-P/$m^2$/day이며, 총인의 경우는 $2.14\sim3.54$ mg-P/$m^2$/day로 나타났다. 상류에서 채집한 퇴적물에서 인의 용출 속도가 가장 빨랐는데, 이는 유입수에 쉽게 분해 가능한 유기물이 다량 포함되어 있기 때문으로 사료된다. 남양호의 경우 가장 깊은 하류의 수심이 $7\sim14$ m로 성층화가 이루어지지 않기 때문에, 대부분의 퇴적물 환경이 호기성 상태이다. 본 연구의 결과 남양호 퇴적물 중에 포함된 인이 호기성 상태에서 다량 용출되고 있기 때문에 인의 용출에 의한 수질 오염 문제에 대한 적절한 대책이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 금속수산화물과 다양한 인계 난연제를 포함한 난연 acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) 발포체를 제조하고, 이때 인 함유량에 따른 열적특성. 난연특성, 발포특성 등의 변화 및 이들의 상관관계를 조사하였다. NBR 발포체의 발포특성 및 모폴로지 분석 결과 인/질소계 난연제 10 phr 범위 내에서 대체적으로 인/질소계 난연제를 투입하지 않은 금속수산화물만을 사용한 경우와 유사한 발포특성 및 모폴로지를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 열 분석에서는 인 함유량이 많은 인/질소계 난연제를 사용할 경우 화염분위기 하에서의 char 형성과 관련한 잔류량이 많아짐으로써 난연성이 향상됨을, LOI 분석에서도 인 함유량이 증가함에 따라 LOI가 증가함을 알 수 있었다. cone-calorimeter 분석 결과 열 및 LOI 분석 결과와 유사한 경향성을, 인 함유량이 증가함에 따라 HRR, THR, EHC 등이 감소하는 반면에 COY는 증가함을, 즉 난연성이 상승함을 확인할 수 있었다. 연기밀도 분석 결과 cone-calorimeter 분석에서의 (A)-COY와 같은 경향성을 보여주었다.

Contaminated marine sediment is a secondary pollution source in the coastal areas, which can result in increased nutrients concentrations in the overlying water. We analyzed the nutrients release characteristics into overlying water from sediments and the interaction among benthic circulation of nitrogen, phosphorus, iron, and sulfur were investigated in a preset sediment/water column. Profiles of pH, ORP, sulfur, iron, nitrogen, phosphorus pools were determined in the sediment and three different layers of overlying water. Variety types of sulfur in the sediments plays a significant role on nutrients transfer into overlying water. Dissimilatory nitrate reduction and various sulfur species interaction are predominantly embodied by the enhancing effects of sulfide on nitrogen reduction. Contaminant sediment take on high organic matter, which is decomposed by bacteria, as a result promote bacterial sulfate reduction and generate sulfide in the sediment. The sulfur and iron interactions had also influence on phosphorus cycling and released from sediment into overlying water may ensue over the dissolution of ferric iron intercede by iron-reducing bacteria. The nutrients release rate was calculated followed by release rate equation. The results showed that the sediments released large-scale quantity of ammonium nitrogen and phosphate, which are main inner source of overlying water pollution. A mechanical migration of key nutrients such as ammonia and inorganic phosphate was depicted numerically with Fick's diffusion law, which showed a fair agreement to most of the experimental data.

본 연구는 호수바닥에 있는 침전물로부터 인의 용출 메커니즘을 규명하고자, 인이 물로 용출될때 미치는 온도의 영향을 조사하였다. 연구 결과를 보면, 온도가 증가하면 PO4-P가 평형에 빨리 도달하고, 평형농도가 증가하며, $PO_4$-P의 용출 증가로 인하여 pH가 감소한다. 즉, $PO_4$-P의 용출이 pH의 감소에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 탁도물질에서 용출된 $PO_4$-P는 물에 용존하며, 탁도물질에 흡착되지 않기 때문에 탁도의 변화에 관계없이 점진적인 증가를 나타냈지만, $PO_4$-P는 탁도에서 용출되기 때문에 탁도와 관련이 있다. 총인(Total phosphorous, T-P)은 용존성 $PO_4$-P와 탁도물질에 포함된 인을 포함하기 때문에 탁도의 변화에 직접 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 온도가 감소하면 물의 밀도가 증가하여 탁도의 침전이 감소하기 때문에 탁도의 농도가 높아져 T-P 농도를 증가시키며, 온도가 증가하면 물의 밀도감소로 인하여 탁도물질의 침전이 용이해져서 탁도는 감소하지만 $PO_4$-P의 용출이 증가하여 T-P 농도가 증가했다. 따라서 동일 시간대의 T-P는 온도가 달라도 유사한 농도를 가졌다. 호수가 깊어지면 저층수의 온도가 감소하여 인의 용출이 감소하므로 이 메카니즘은 호수 바닥으로부터 물로 용출되는 인에 대하여 온도가 미치는 영향을 이해하는데에 중요하다.

Batch experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of sludge acclimation and contact load on the behavior of phosphorus and organic substrates under anaerobic conditions. Four different sludges were acclimated in the sequencing batch reactors operated by intermittent aeration. All the experiments performed in a bench scale have shown the following results: 1. The unreleaseable phosphorus contents for four different sludges are the range of 16 mg P/g SS to 24 mg P/g SS, depending on the sludge acclimation conditions. 2. All the specific substrate uptake rates(SSUR) are expressed in the first order equation for releaseable phosphorus contents. The reaction rate coefficient k, has the values of 4.0, 8.9, and 13.8 mg COD/mg P/hr, depending on the contact load and slut식e species. 3. As reaction proceeds, the ratios of $\delta$P to -$\delta$COD at high contact load are almost constant in the range of 0.10 to 0.14, but at low contact load, they increase from 0.08 to 0.27.
