본 연구에서는 하수재이용과 해수담수화를 동시에 진행할 수 있는 규모 1,000 m³/d의 FO-RO 융합공정과 동일한 규모의 기존 SWRO 공정의 탄소배출량을 계산하여 비교 분석하였다. FO-RO 융합공정은 FO 공정을 도입하여 RO 공정 원수를 희석시킬 수 있기 때문에 RO 공정의 요구 압력이 감소되고 이는 곧 에너지소비량 감소로 이어진다. 에너지소비량에 따른 탄소배출량은 FO-RO 융합공정이 SWRO 공정보다 -0.73 kgCO₂(coal로 전력생산 시) 낮으며, FO 공정 추가 건설로 인해 발생되는 탄소배출량은 +0.16 kgCO₂로 계산되어 FO-RO 융합공정의 총 탄소 배출량이 더 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, Coal나 oil과 같은 화석연료로 전력을 생산하지 않고, 전력생산 시 탄소배출량이 적은 nuclear나 solar 등으로 사용하면 FO-RO 융합공정의 총 탄소배출량이 SWRO 공정보다 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 탄소배출량 관점에서는 전력생산 시 필요 재료(예: coal, oil, nuclear, solar 등)에 따라 친환경적인 공정 판단 여부가 결정되므로 FO-RO 융합공정 도입 필요성을 좌우하는 핵심 요소라고 할 수 있다.

Reverse osmosis filtration(RO) system and ultrafiltration(UF) system are principally use for domestic home drinking water treatment systems. The object of this study is to make a comparison between two systems in terms of theirs abilities to remove RNA coilphage QB as an indicator of pathogenic enteroviruses. The virus removal ratio of RO system was 99.999%, which was higher than EPA virus treatment guideline(99.99%). In the course of filtration, removal ratios of sediment filter, pre-carbon filter, reverse osmosis membrane and post-carbon filter were 75.000%, 93.208%, 99.997% and 99.999%, repectively. In case of UF system, virus removal ratio was 99.708%. Removal ratios of sediment filter, pre-carbon filter, post-carbon filter and ultrafiltration membration membrane were 71.038%, 91.530%, 98.283% and 99.708%, respecively, in UF steps. Therefore, RO system is more effective than UF system in virus removal.

A research was performed for zero discharge system of waste water which is produced from energy recovery process of waste and biomass. Leachate and all kinds of waste water should be separated and integrated into three categories in addition to converting existing leachate treatment facility into waste water treatment facility as well as introducing a management system of reverse osmosis membrane facility and bioreactor landfill. Following these conditions to better water treatment process, it was likely to produce over 3,000 tons of low-grade recycling water and 2,000 tons of high-grade recycling water per day when zero discharge system of waste water is applied starting from 2016. Economical efficiency was also surveyed in total treatment fee. Present system costs 18,129 million won per year, and suggested zero discharge system would cost 15,789 million won per year.

본 연구는 매립지에서 발생되는 침출수를 배출허용기준 이내로 처리함은 물론 경제적인 처리 공정을 개발하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 현장 pilot test 이전에 최적 공정 선정과 장치 설계인자를 도출하기 위해 실험실에서 기초실험을 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 개발하고자하는 처리공정은 역삼투시스템을 이용하는 공정인데 전처리로서 침지형분리막 생물반응기를 이용하였으며, 역삼투시스템에서 발생되는 농축수는 매립가스를 열원으로 하는 직화식 증발기를 이용하여 처리하는 공정이다. 실험결과 침지형분리막 생물반응기에서 SS, $BOD_5$, $COD_{cr}$, $NH_4{^+}-N$은 각각 99.0%, 43.0%, 12.9%, 48.5%, 18.7%의 제거효율을 보였다. 역삼투시스템온 $BOD_5$, $COD_{cr}$, $NH_4{^+}-N$, T-N을 각각 97.5%, 97.6%, 79.7%, 85.4% 제거할 수 있었다. 증발기는 $COD_{cr}$, $NH_4{^+}-N$, T-N을 각각 90.5%, 50.6%, 63.3% 제거할 수 있었으나 배출허용기준 이내로 처리하기는 어려운 것으로 나타나 응축수는 역삼투시스템 전단으로 보내서 전처리수와 함께 처리되어야할 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of forward osmosis (FO) system for harvesting microalgae cultivated in secondary sewage effluent. Microalgae species used in this study were chlorella sp. ADE4. The drawing agents used for forward osmosis system were seawater and concentrate of sea water reverse osmosis (SWRO) system. Chlorella sp. ADE4 cultured in secondary sewage effluent illustrated moderate efficiency in removal of total nitrogen (TN) (68%) and superior performance in total phosphorus (TP) removal (99%). Comparison of seawater and SWRO concentrate as drawing agent were made in FO membrane separation of the microalgae. The result from this study depicts that SWRO concentrate is strong drawing agent in FO membrane system providing an average dewatering rate of $4.8L/(m^2{\cdot}hr)$ compared to seawater with average dewatering of $2.9L/(m^2{\cdot}hr)$. Results obtained from this study indicated that FO system could be viable option for harvesting the microalgae for further biodiesel production. SWRO concentrate as a drawing agent could be very important finding in field of membrane technology for disposal of SWRO concentrate.

Ultrapure water (UPW) is water containing nothing but water molecule ($H_2O$). The use of UPW is increasing in many industries such as the thermal and nuclear power plants, petrochemical plants, and semiconductor manufacturers. In order to produce UPW, several unit processes such as ion exchange, reverse osmosis (RO), ultraviolet (UV) oxidation should be efficiently arranged. In particular, RO process should remove not only ions but also low molecular weight (LMW) organic matters in UPW production system. But, the LMW organic matter removal data of RO membranes provided by manufacturers does not seem to be reasonable because they tested the removal in high concentration conditions like 1,000 ppm of isopropyl alcohol (IPA, MW=60.1). In this study, bench-scale experiments were carried out using 4-inches RO modules. IPA was used as a model LMW organic matter with low concentration conditions less than 1 ppm as total organic carbon (TOC). As a result, the IPA removal data by manufacturers turned out to be trustable because the effect of feed concentration on the IPA removal was negligble while the IPA removal efficiency became higher at higher permeate flux.

Membrane process has been one of the widely applied wastewater treatment options, especially in field. However, one of the tricky issues in the process is to treat concentrates generated from reverse osmosis (RO) system in a manner of saving cost with maximum efficiency for treating a wide range of contaminants. Stimulated with the challenging issues, we have conducted a series of experimental studies in the evaluation for removing organics and nutrients using activated carbon. Results indicated that while powdered activated carbon (PAC) efficiently removed organics and the extent of removal was proportional to the PAC dosage, little removal of nitrogen and phosphorus was observed despite increasing the PAC dose. Interestingly, applying PAC was superior in removing organics than using granular activated carbon (GAC). These results suggest smaller particle size with higher surface area could provide greater chemical reactivity in removing organics.
