최근에 음식물쓰레기의 증가에 따라 폐기불의 처리가 현대사회의 큰 문제로 되었다. 본 연구는 음식물 쓰레기와 하수슬러지 혼합물의 2단 혐기성소화조에 의하여 소화의 가능성을 검토할 목적으로 수행되었다. 음식물쓰레기와 하수슬러지를 1:9의 비율로 하여 파이롯트 2단 소화시스템을 사용하여 현장에서 운전하였으며, 체류기간은 20일로 유지했다. $3.03kg\;TCOD/m^3day$의 유기물 부가에서 COD와 VS 제거효율이 57.7%와 47.7%를 보였으며, 가스 생성율과 메탄의 함량은 $0.4m^3/kg$ vs.day와 65.3%로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터 하수슬러지와 음식물쓰레기의 혼합처리가 효과적인 것으로 밝혀 졌다.

폐기물은 이차연료나 대체연료로 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고형연료(SRF)와 건조 하수슬러지를 연소하여 배출되는 중금속 물질을 분석하였다. 석탄, SRF, 건조 하수슬러지의 구리(Cu), 크롬(Cr), 카드뮴(Cd), 니켈(Ni), 아연(Zn), 납(Pb), 비소(As), 수은(Hg) 함량을 조사하였고, 각 물질이 연소가스에서 가스상으로 존재하는 농도를 분석하였다. 실험결과, 가스상으로 배출되는 Cu, Cr, Cd, Ni, Zn, Pb의 양은 매우 적은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 가스상 수은은 연소 배기가스에서 많은 양이 배출되었다. SRF는 연소 배기가스에서 높은 수은 산화도를 보였고, 건조 하수슬러지는 높은 수준의 수은 배출농도를 보였다.

최근 들어 환경보호나 국토의 효율적 활용 등의 측면에서 산업 각 분야에서 발생되는 각종의 산업부산물 및 폐기물 등의 유효하 고 효율적인 이용이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 갈수록 발생량이 증가하는 하수슬러지를 활용한 하수슬러지 소각재의 유효한 활용을 위하여 건설재료로서의 가능성을 평가하였다. 콘크리트 제작 후 평가항목은 압축강도, 중성화저항성 및 환경 평가인 용출시험으로 압축강도 및 중성화저항성에서 무첨가 콘크리트에 비해 만족스런 결과를 도출하였으며 용출시험 결과 역시 기준치를 모두 만족하는 결과를 나타냈다. 따라서 콘크리트용 잔골재로서 활용 가능성이 충분하며 적정 대체율은 약 10% 정도로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 각종 환경기초시설에서 발생하는 악취 유발물질 중 $H_2S$를 처리하기 위한 하수슬러지 기반 흡착제의 흡착성능 증진을 위해 제조조건 중 탄화조건 최적화에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 적용되는 흡착제는 하수처리장에서 발생하는 슬러지를 온도 및 승온속도와 같은 탄화조건을 달리하여 제조하였으며, 흡착제의 물리적 특성과 흡착성능과의 상관관계를 확인하였다. 실험결과 $10^{\circ}C/min$의 승온속도로 $900^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 탄화과정을 거친 슬러지의 흡착성능이 가장 우수하였으며, SEM, BET 분석을 통해 비표면적 및 기공특성(기공크기, 부피)이 흡착성능의 주요 인자임을 확인하였다. 최적 탄화조건 흡착제의 흡착성능을 증진시키기 위해 K 이온을 담지하였으나, 하수슬러지 기반 흡착제의 경우 큰 영향이 없는 것으로 확인하였다.

본 연구는 하수슬러지 탄화물과 활성화제의 화학적 활성화반응을 이용한 활성탄 제조공정을 다루고 있다. 일반적으로 활성화제로는 알칼리 약품을 이용하는데 본 연구에서는 탄소와 활성화반응이 잘 이루어지는 KOH와 NaOH를 사용하였다. 실험결과, KOH로 제조된 활성탄이 NaOH로 제조된 활성탄보다 요오드 흡착력과 비표면적(BET) 등의 물성이 우수하였다. 하수슬러지 탄화물과 활성화제의 최적 침적비율은 KOH 75 wt%, NaOH 50 wt%임을 알 수 있었다. 5 M 염산용액으로 세척하여 중화시킨 후 증류수로 세정하는 활성탄 세정방법을 사용하였다. 본 연구의 최적 실험조건에서 하수슬러지 탄화물을 이용하여 제조된 활성탄의 경우 BET표면적 값이 약 $600m^2/g$에 이르렀다.

This paper has concentrated on estimating the improvement of sludge dewaterability for the application of ozone in sewage treatment plant sludge. The experiment for the study was conducted by batch reactor, contacting ozone (5.0 g O$_3$/hr/l) to waste sludge and measured the Specific Resistance to Filtrate (SRF) varying pH, pressure and reaction time of ozone. And then checked the dissolved solids concentration of flitrate. The results of experiment were as follows: 1. When the total solids concentration of excess sludge was 9, 000 mg/l, the optimum injection rate of ozone was 5.0 g O$_3$/hr/l, and then pressure was 50 cm Hg for the measuring SRF. 2. In the range of pH 3~5, the effect of ozone injection was excellent, but it was unsatisfactory in the range of pH 9~11. Therefore, the ozone injection by acidifying pH level was effective in improving the dewaterability of sludge. 3. It was estimated that the dissolved solids concentration of flitrate was increased in proportion to the injection rate of ozone.

The pretreatment process was carried out to solubilize the sewage sludge for enhancing its biodegradability using alkaline treatment, ultrasonic treatment(15kHz), ozone treatment and different combination of these three methods: alkaline followed by ultrasonic as well as ozone, and ultrasonic followed by alkaline. The solubilization efficiency was evaluated based on the SCOD/TCOD ratio and VSS/TS ratio. In results, the proper condition of alkaline treatment was shown as 30meq/l of NaOH, pH 12 and 3hours of reaction time. Solubilization efficiency increased to 17% from initial 2% based on SCOD/TCOD ratio under this condition. In ultrasonic treatment, the higher ultrasonic power, the longer treatment time and the lower sludge volume resulted in higher solubilization respectively. There was a rapid increase in solubilization efficiency after 20 minute, then it was measured as 32% of SCOD/TCOD ratio in 1 hour at a ultrasonic power of 1,300W with 1/sludge. Solubilization efficiencies in combined treatment using alkaline and ultrasonic were 47-53% higher than single treatment at a sonicated time of 1 hour. Ozone treatment followed by alkaline treatment also represented the enhanced solubilization compared to ozone treatment. Therefore, ultrasonic or ozone treatment assisted by alkaline could achieve the short treatment time as well as high solubilizetion efficiency.

Domestic Sewage Treatment Plants are mostly based on biological treatment, in which large amounts of excess sludge are generated and occupy about 40 ~ 60% of the total sewage treatment costs. Several methods for sludge treatment has been so far reported as upgrading biodegradation of sludge; heat treatment, chemical treatment, including thermo-alkali and ozone, mechanical treatment including ultrasonic pulverization. But, it has a limitation in case of reducing the amount of excess sludge which are already producted. In this study, application of excess sludge reduction process using thermophilic aerobic bacteria for activated sludge was examined. The research was carried out two different stage. one for a biological wastewater treatment and the other for a thermophilic aerobic solubilization of the waste sludge. A portion of excess sludge from the wastewater treatment step was into the thermophilic aerobic sludge solubilization reactor, in which the injected sludge was solubilized by thermophilic aerobic bacteria. The solubilized sludge was returned to the aeration tank in the wastewater treatment step for its further degradation. Sludge solubilization reactor was operated at $63{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ with hydraulic retention time(HRT) of 1.5 ~ 1.7 day. Control group was operated with activated sludge process(AS) and experiment group was operated with three conditions(RUN 1, RUN 2, RUN3). RUN 1 was operated with AS without sludge solubilization reactor. RUN 2 were operated with AS with sludge solubilization reactor to examine correlation between sludge circulation ratio and sludge reduction ratio by setting up sludge circulation ratio to 3. RUN 3 was operated with sludge circulation ratio of 3 and MLSS concentration of 1,700~2,000mg/L to examine optimum operation condition. The quantity of excess sludge production was reduced sharply and in operation of RUN 3, sludge The quantity of excess sludge production was reduced sharply and in operation of RUN 3, sludge solubilization ratio and sludge reduction ratio were 53. 7%, 95.2% respectively. After steady state operation, average concentration of TBOD, SBOD, $TCOD_{Cr}$, $SCOD_{Cr}$, TSS, VSS, T-N, T-P of effluent were 4.5, 1.7, 27 .8, 13.8, 8.1, 6.2, 15.1, 1.8mg/L in the control group and were 5.6, 2.0, 28.6, 19.1, 9.7, 7.2, 16.1, 2.0mg/L in the experimental group respectively. They were appropriate to effluent standard of Sewage Treatment Plants.

A series of experiments was conducted to identify the potential of five phytoplankton species as standard test species for marine ecotoxicological tests. The candidate phytoplankton species are Skeletonema costatum, Heterosigma akashiwo, Prorocentrum micans, Isochrysis galbana, and Tetraselmis suecica. Salinity tolerance and sensitivity on potassium dichromate as a reference material were identified. Toxicity of eleven ocean dumped sewage sludges and four red tide expellent extracts were estimated by the inhibition of population growth rates (PGR) of marine diatom S. costatum, While most species revealed relatively weak tolerance on salinity, T. suecica demonstrated the highest salinity tolerance ranged from $5\~35$ psu and the others $15\~35$ psu. H. akashiwo revealed the highest sensitivity as 72h $IC_{50}$=0.76mg/L and T. suecica the lowest as 72h $IC_{50}$=8.89mg/L on potassium dichromate. Sludge extracts from industrial waste, domestic sewage and livestock farm waste sludge showed high toxicity as 72h $IC_{50}$<$2\%$ and lowest toxicity from filtration bed sludge as 72h $IC_{50}$=$30.50\%$ NOEC (No Observed Effective Concentration) of sludge extract ranged from <$0.4\%$ to $1.6\%$ and this indicated high phytotoxicity of ocean dumped sewage sludge. The test sensitivity of phytoplankton PGR inhibition was much higher than those of marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis mortality test and bioluminescent inhibition test by marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri, and comparable with the sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus intermedius) fertilization test. As a result the phytotoxicity test using phytoplankton PGR inhibition ($IC_{50}$) must be a useful tool for marine phyto-toxicological evaluation of ocean dumped materials.
