Natural wastewater treatment systems using the constructed wetland system were evaluated for the wastewater from the industrial complex in rural areas. For the treatment of wastewater from the industrial complex in rural area, a pilot plant of the constructed wetland system was installed at Baeksuk agri-industrial complex in ChunahnCity, Chunchungnam-Do. The experiment with this pilot plants was performed for 1996 and 1997. Results of the study were summarized as follows. For the BOD and COD, when the pollutant loading of them was about 1 3.8g/$m^2$. day (the concentration was l24.0mg/${\ell}$) arid 24.4g/$m^2$.day(the concentration was 220.Omg/${\ell}$), the removal rate of them was high, 90.2% and 93.4%, respectively. For the SS, the effluent concentration was consistently lower than the water quality standard even though the influent concentration varied significantly, which showed that SS was removed by the system effectively which consist of soil and plants. For the T-N and T-P, when the influent pollutant loading of them were moderately high, 2.8g/$m^2$.day to 7.4g/$m^2$. day(concentration 25.0mg/${\ell}$ to 49.7mg/${\ell}$) for T-N and 1.0g/$m^2$.day to 2.6g /$m^2$.day(concentration 8.6mg/${\ell}$ to 14.7mg/${\ell}$) for T-P, the removal rate of them were 86.5% and 94.0%, respectively. The removal rate by the flow distance increased rapidly in the first 4m from the inlet zone, and gradually there after. The width of system was 2m. Overall, the result showed that constructed wetland system is a feasible alternative for the treatment of wastewater from industrial complex in rural areas. Compared to existing systems, this system is quite competitive because it requires low capital cost, almost no energy and maintenance, and therefore, very cost effective.

In this study, an Excel-based model (ROADMOD) was developed to estimate pollutant loading from the road and evaluate BMPs. ROADMOD employs the Chezy-Manning equation and empirical expression for estimating surface runoff, and power function for pollutant buildup, and exponential function for pollutant washoff in SWMM. The results of model calibration for buildup and washoff using observed data revealed a good match between the simulation results and the observed data. The long-term surface runoff and sediment simulated by ROADMOD demonstrated a good match with those by SWMM with 2 ~ 14% of relative error. The shorter sweeping interval (within 8 days) remarkably decreased sediment loads from the road. It was found that the effect of reducing sediment loads from the road was greatly affected not only by the sweeping interval but also by sweeping on the day before a rainfall event. The 48% of removal efficiency of sediment loads from the road was achieved with 26 times of road sweeping per year when sweeping was performed on the day before the rainfall event. A 4-day sweeping interval showed similar removal efficiency (48%) with 96 times of sweeping per year. It is considered that the road sweeping on the day before a rainfall event could maximize the effect of reducing the non-point source pollution from the road with minimization of the number of road sweeping. So, the road sweeping on the day before a rainfall event can be considered as one of the useful and best management practices (BMPs) on road.

The composites of alginate, carbon nanotube, and iron(III) oxide were prepared for the removal of heavy metal in aqueous pollutant. Both alginate and carbon nanotube were used as an adsorbent material and iron oxide was introduced for the easy recovery after removal of heavy metal to eliminate the secondary pollution. The morphology of composites was investigated by FE-SEM showing the carbon nanotubes coated with alginate and the iron oxide dispersed in the alginate matrix. The ferromagnetic properties of composites were shown by including iron(III) oxide additive. The copper ion removal was investigated with ICP AES. The copper ion removal efficiency increased greatly over 60% by using alginate-carbon nanotube composites.

강우유출수 내 포함된 입자상 물질, 유기물, 영양물질, 중금속 등의 오염물질은 수계에 악영향을 미친다. 이러한 강우유출수 내 포함된 오염물질 감소와 처리를 위해 최적관리기법(BMP)을 도입하고 있으며, 비용효율적인 방법으로 평가되고 있다. 하지만, 잘못된 설계와 유지관리 부족은 시설의 성능을 저하시켜 원활한 기능을 수행하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 지속적인 유지관리가 진행된 침투도랑(IT)의 시설에 대한 평가를 수행하였다. 2009년부터 2016년까지 총 41회의 모니터링을 수행하였으며 침투도랑(IT)의 오염물질 저감효율 평가를 수행하였다. 수질 및 수문학적 분석결과, 시설에 유입되는 유입수는 단위 오염 부하량에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 나타났다. 또한, 계절의 변화는 오염물질 저감능력에 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 여름철 강수량 및 강우강도의 증가로 인해 Overflow 및 유량의 증가가 발생되었으며, 이로 인해 저감효율이 감소하였다. 또한, 겨울철 낮은 온도로 인해 여재 및 화학적 메카니즘의 효과 감소로 오염물질 저감 효율이 감소되는 것으로 분석되었다. 침투도랑(IT)의 유지관리는 시설의 효율에 영향을 미치는 것으로 평가되었다. 시설 설치 이후 2년 동안 유지관리 부족으로 오염물질 저감효율이 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 일부 모니터링에서 지오텍스타일 내 제거 되지 않은 퇴적물로 인해 오염물질 저감효율의 감소를 보였다. 본 연구를 통하여, 시설의 유지관리는 오염물질 저감효과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, BMP 시설의 최적 유지관리 기간 및 방법 등은 향후 유용한 자료로 사용 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

국내 10개 댐저수지 인공습지를 대상으로 수심분포, 유입량 및 유출량, 물흐름분포, 체류시간, 수처리효율, 종횡비, 개방수역/폐쇄수역 구성비 등 습지의 운영현황 및 구조적 형상에 대한 분석을 통해 인공습지의 수질정화기능을 회복시킬 수 있는 개선대책 및 운영방안을 제시하였다. 조사대상 인공습지의 처리수는 하수처리장 방류수 또는 하천수였으며, 처리수의 수질은 외국의 인공습지에 비해 전반적으로 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 특히 처리수의 BOD는 모든 습지에서 3 mg/L 이하로 매우 낮았는데, 이는 하수처리장의 고도처리 및 평수기 저농도 하천수 취입에 기인된 것으로 판단된다. 수처리효율은 TN이 7.6~67.6%(평균 24.9%), TP가 -4.9~74.5%(평균 23.7%)의 범위로 하수처리장 방류수를 처리수로 하는 인공습지에서 높은 값을 보였다. BOD는 -133.3~41.7% 범위로 습지에 따라 큰 차이를 보였으며, 대부분 습지에서 처리효율이 없거나 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 인공습지의 낮은 처리효율은 습지의 부적합한 종행비, 과도한 개방수역 면적 등의 구조적인 문제와 수위관리 미흡, 초기우수 취입시스템 및 운영관리 미흡, 강우시 모니터링 부재 등의 운영적인 문제에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 댐저수지 인공습지가 비점오염 저감시설로서의 역할을 할 수 있기 위해서는 댐저수지 인공습지에 적합한 습지설계 및 운영방안이 필요하다. 또한 습지 운영매뉴얼에 비점오염물질이 유출되는 강우시 모니터링이 반드시 포함되어야 하며, 댐저수지 인공습지의 수처리효율도 강우시 모니터링 자료를 토대로 평가되어야 할 것이다.

A novel hybrid system composed of a biotrickling filter and an activated sludge reactor was investigated under the conditions of four different SRTs (sludge retention times). The performance of the hybrid reactor was found to be directly comparable among the four different sludge ages. Discernible differences in the removal performance were observed among four different SRTs of 2, 4, 6, and 8 days. High removal efficiency was achieved by continuous circulation of activated sludge over the immobilized mixture culture, which allowed on pH control, addition of nutrients, and removal of paint VOCs (volatile organic compounds). The results also showed that the removal efficiency for a given pollutant depends on the activity of microorganisms based on the SRT. As the SRT increased gradually from 2 to 8 days, the average removal performance decreased. The highest removal rate was achieved at the SRT of 2 days at which the highest OUR (oxygen uptake rate), $6.1mg-O_2/liter-min$ was measured. Biological activity in the recycle microbes decreased to a much lower level, $3.6mg-O_2/liter-min$ at a SRT of 8 days. It is thus believed that young microorganisms were more active and more efficient for the VOCs removal of low concentrations and high flow rates. The apparent correlation of $R^2=0.996$ between the average removal efficiency and the average OUR at each SRTs suggests that VOCs degradation by young cells significantly affected the overall removal efficiency for the tested SRTs.

Electrochemical and photochemical techniques have been proved to be effective for the removal of organic pollutants in textile wastewater. The present study deals with degradation of synthetic textile effluents containing reactive dyes and assisting chemicals, using electro oxidation and photo catalytic treatment. The influence of various operating parameters such as dye concentration, current density, supporting electrolyte concentration and lamp intensity on TOC removal has been determined. From the present investigation it has been observed that nearly 70% of TOC removal has been recorded for electrooxidation treatment with current density 5 mA/$dm^2$, supporting electrolyte concentration of 3 g/L and in photocatalytic treatment with 250 V as optimum lamp intensity nearly 67% of TOC removal was observed. The result indicates that electro oxidation treatment is more efficient than photocatalytic treatment for dye degradation.

Alum을 이용한 응집 과정에서 탁도 및 유기물 제거와 응집 floc의 특성을 파악하였다. 본 실험에서 구한 탁도 제거영역을 Amitharajah의 연구결과와 비교했을 때 sweep floc 및 charge neutralization의 제거영역이 낮은 pH 영역으로 이동하였는데 그 원인은 원수에 포함된 유기물 농도가 다른데서 찾을 수 있다. 대체적으로 탁도 및 유기물($UV_{254}$와 TOC)의 제거영역은 비슷하였으나 탁도 제거에 비해 낮은 pH에서 유기물 제거의 효과가 높았다. Floc의 특성은 AIA, SALLS 방법을 이용하여 volume diameter과 fractal dimension을 측정하였다. AIA 방법에 비해 SALLS 방법의 측정이 용이하고 신뢰성도 높았다. SALLS 방법을 이용하여 floc을 측정한 결과 sweep floc 영역의 floc이 charge neutralization 영역의 floc 보다 fractal dimension과 평균 직경이 크게 측정되었으며, 오염물질의 제거율이 높을수록 floc의 fractal dimension과 평균 직경도 크게 나타났다.
