In this study the real situation of apartment house in seoul is reproduced with multi-zone modeling program CONTAM2.4. This model include disinfection system which is consist of dilution, filtration, UVGI(ultra violet germicidal irradiation). It's energy consumption was also analyzed through the linked model of CONTAM and TRNSYS according to the combination of components. The comparison of total energy consumption through energy analysis revealed that adjusting the air change rate of the UVGI air sterilizer to maintain the same indoor microbe removal capability was more advantageous in terms of energy consumption.

Because of their simplicity, efficiency, and economy, slow sand filters are appropriate means of water treatment for small water systems. Biological activity within the sand bed have the strongest influence on removal efficiency of pollutants by slow sand filtration. This report investigated the microorganisms(algae) of slow sand filtration pilot plant at Y water treatment plant. Data were collected at inflow and slow sand filtration from May to October, 2007. The results indicated that the light exposure was influenced on microorganism in slow sand filtration according to the formation of algal biofilm. The relative contribution of biomass and accumulated particulates to head loss development in slow sand filters requires further study.

Biodegradation of Quinoline by free and immobilized Bacillus brevis has been investigated. The rate of quinoline degradation by immobilized Bacillus brevis on coconut shell carbon is faster than the rate by the microorganism immobilized on foam pieces and free cells. A complete removal of 100 ppm of Quinoline in the sample was achieved at a hydraulic retention time of 20 hours with the biocatalyst prepared by immobilizing Bacillus brevis onto coconut shell carbon. The biocatalyst had a reasonable shelf life and desirable recycle capacity.

The behavior of biological particles in DAF (dissolved air flotation) process was analyzed by employing PBT (Population balance theory). After decline growth phase of activated sludge, the value of the initial collision-attachment efficiency was increased over than 0.35 corresponding relatively high value in the whole life cycle of microorganism. For practical application of DAF as a solid separation process. It is desirable that microbial particles should be operated to perform high solid removal efficiency in biological wastewater treatment.

Entrapped media with cellulous triacetate in which actived sludge was applied to induce operation factors and sewage treatment on site. The results are summarized as follows; The treatment efficiency of entrapped media is 92％, 90％ and 80％ at the size of 5mm, 7mm, and 12mm, respectively. Also, treatment efficient rate was increased by the packed amount of media in less than 30％ packed, while in more than 40％ packed that was decreased. It takes 10day to reach the steady states and it is less than the existing activated sludge method. The slopes of oxygen consumption rate are almost parallel both in the entrapped media and free sludge. When organic loading rate is less than 1.0 kg/㎥. d on site, it is achieved good removal rate independent of changes of loading rate.

When an electrokinetic process is applied to a HOC-contaminated soil, hybrid types combined with soil flushing, chemical oxidation, and bioremediation are generally used. Especially when the electrokinetic process is combined with bioremediation, the hybrid technology can solve several limits of bioremediation such as low microbial mobility, low soil temperature, and shortage of nutrients in subsurface circumstance. Because microbial surface is charged negatively, the microorganism moves from cathode to anode under electrical field. In this study, mixed culture mainly-consisted by Pseudomonas sp. was applied to remediate pentadecane-contaminated kaolinite with particle size less than 300${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. This remediation system was named ‘electrokinetic bioaugmentation’ and consisted of model aquifer, electrode reservoirs, bioreactor, power supply, and pump. The mixed culture above 0.5 of optical density in bioreactor was supplied to two reservoirs and penetrated soil when the electric current was applied. To enhance the removal efficiency, the optimal medium composition, electric current, and voltage were investigated.

A microorganism producing carboxymethyl-cellulase (CMCase) was isolated from 300 soil and compost samples. The isolate was identified as Bacillus sp. by $Biolog^{TM}$ test and fatty acid analysis, and named as Bacillus sp. KD1014. The isolate could degrade, in addition to CMC, various kinds of polysaccharides such as levan, xylan, starch, and filter paper but hardly degrade microcrystalline Avicel. The optimum growth and CMCase production of the isolate was observed between 16-and 25 hr-culture at 45$^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.0. The maximum CMCase activity was observed at pH 4.5 and 6$0^{\circ}C$. The CMCase was found to bind to Avicel. The CMCase was internally cleaved as growth continued. When crude supernatant was used for activity staining, three major bands were detected on a native gel, however, only one major band was detected on a denaturating gel after removal of the detergent.

This study analyzed the hydrogen conversion rate and microbial community in conjunction with changes in carbohydrate concentration during hydrogen fermentation using food waste, and presented comprehensive research results for the condition 80 g Carbo COD/L, which showed the highest efficiency with a carbohydrate removal rate of 98.1% and a hydrogen conversion rate of 1.76 mol H₂/mol. The microbial community analysis found that Clostridium sp., widely known as a hydrogen-producing microorganism, was released in 80 g Carbo COD/L and confirmed that it was a dominant species at 98.1%. Conversely, in 100 g Carbo. Under COD/L conditions, Leuconostoc sp. showed the maximun prevalence, which is believed to hinder hydrogen production.

본 연구는 하 ${\cdot}$ 폐수 중의 유기물뿐만 아니라 질소, 인을 생물학적으로 제거하는 실험을 수행하였다. 공정 내 미생물의 유실을 방지하고 미생물이 고농도 상태로 유지 가능한 부착성장의 한 공법인 RBC에 끈상 나선형 미생물 접촉재를 설치한 반웅기를 이용하였다. 원수는 Glucose 1,800 mg/L, $NH_{4}Cl$ 500 mg/L, $KH_{2}PO_{4}$ 5mg/L를 혼합한 인공폐수를 제조하여 공정에 주입하였고, 그 결과 각각 미생물이 폐수에 적응하는 단계인 Period 1에서는 각 수질 분석 항목의 농도가 점차적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 정상상태라고 판단한 Period 2에서는 최종적으로 유입수에 대한 유출수의 제거율은 각각 $TCOD_{Cr}$ 94%, BOD 87%, T-N 85%, T-P 89%의 결과를 나타내었다.
