선박에서 발생하는 오${\cdot}$폐수를 처리하기 위하여 생물학적 질소 및 인의 제거공정으로 사용되고 있는 연속 회분식 공정을 이용하여 유기물의 제거 특성과 산소 소모량, 반응조내에서 우점하고 있는 Bacillus sp.균주의 상태를 알아보기 위하여 Lab-sacle로 수행하였다. 반응조에서 COD의 제거효율은 $92.0\%$, 암모니아성질소는 $90.0\%$, 총질소의 제거효율은 $84.0\%$, 인의 제거효율은 $93.0\%$로 나타났다. Bacillus sp.를 이용한 SBR를 사용한 선박폐수의 처리효율은 안정적이었다. 포기시에 SBR 내의 pH는 초기의 8.1에서 30분동안에 pH는 7.0으로 감소하였다. 무산소 단계인 3단계와 4단계에서 pH는 증가하기 시작하여 최종적으로 pH는 7.3으로 유지되었다. TOC제거량에 대한 슬러지 생성량은 약$0.36kg{\cdot}MLSS/kg{\cdot}TOC$으로 나타났으며 낮은 슬러지 발생율과 높은 슬러지 침강성을 나타내었다. 반응조에서 바실러스균의 평균 우점율은 $24.2\%$로 나타났고 각 반응단계에서 안정적인 처리효율을 얻을 수 있어 충분히 우점화 되었다고 판단할 수 있었다.

BACKGROUND: From year 2005, landfill for food waste has been prohibited. Also, according to London agreement in year 2013, ocean discharge for livestock manure, sewage sludge, and food waste has been regulated. Alternative way for food waste disposal is incineration. However, due to high moisture content, additional input for energy is needed. Therefore, effective way for food waste disposal such as application of food waste compost is needed. METHODS AND RESULTS: Seven different treatments (livestock compost, food waste compost, food waste + livestock compost, livestock compost + chemical fertilizer, food waste compost + chemical fertilizer, food waste + livestock compost + chemical fertilizer and control) were applied to tomato crop. All treatments were replicated with completely randomized design. Tomato growth treated with LC+NPK showed the highest values at 6 weeks for all parameters such as leaf length (11.80 cm), leaf width (6.88 cm), and chlorophyll (61.12 O.D.), compared to other treatments. Subsequently the FWC+LC+NPK treatment was followed (11.51 cm, 6.40 cm, 59.50 O.D. for leaf length, leaf width, and chlorophyll, respectably). EC, OM contents, and CEC in the soil treated with the composts significantly increased. CONCLUSION: To evaluate the effect of food waste compost application on tomato growth and soil chemical properties, we carried out field experiment treated with 7 treatments with 3 replicates. The LC+NPK treatment showed highest values for all parameters. Some parameters such as shoot length and total length for tomato were not significantly different between the LC+NPK and the FWC+LC+NPK treatments.

The SCBFC was composed of bilayered cathode, the outside of which was modified with $Fe^{3+}$ (graphite-Fe(III) cathode) and the inside of which was porcelain membrane, and of an anode which was modified with $Mn^{4+}$ (graphite­Mn(lV) anode). The graphite-Fe(III), graphite-Mn(IV), and porcelain membrane were designed to have micropores. The outside of the cathode was exposed to the atmosphere and the inside was contacted with porcelain membrane. In all SCBFCS the graphite-Fe(III) was used as a cathode, and graphite-Mn(IV) and normal graphite were used as anodes, for comparison of the function between normal graphite and graphite-Mn(IV) anode. The potential difference between graphite-Mn(IV) anode and graphite-Fe(III) cathode was about 0.3 volt, which is the source for the electron driving force from anode to cathode. In chemical fuel cells composed of the graphite-Mn(IV) anode and graphite-Fe(III) cathode, a current of maximal 13 mA was produced coupled to oxidation of NADH to $NAD^{+}$ the current was not produced in SCBFC with normal graphite anode. When growing and resting cells of E. coli were applied to the SCBFC with graphite-Mn(IV) anode, the electricity production and substrate consumption were 6 to 7 times higher than in the SCBFC with normal graphite anode, and when we applied anaerobic sewage sludge to SCBFC with graphite-Mn(IV) anode, the electricity production and substrate consumption were 3 to 5 times higher than in the SCBFC with normal graphite anode. These results suggest that useful electric energy might possibly be produced from SCBFC without electron mediators, electrode-active bacteria, and extra energy consumption for the aeration of catholyte, but with wastewater as a fuel.

Advanced Phase Isolation Ditch (APID) process was studied to develop economic retrofitting technology, for the plants where retrofitting of common activated sludge process is required. In this study, to evaluate the effluent BOD, SS, T-N, and T-P concentrations as process capable and stable parameters for treating municipal wastewater, a demonstration plant was installed and operated in the existing sewage treatment plant of P city. During this study, the average effluent BOD, SS, T-N, and T-P concentrations were 4.56, 5.20, 9.30, and 1.75 mg/L at the conventional mode and 3.95, 3.17, 7.65, and 1.18 mg/L at the modified mode. The modified mode (BOD: 3.69, SS: 3.19, T-N: 1.27, and T-P: 0.69) increased the process capability more than the conventional mode (BOD: 1.80, SS: 1.05, T-N: 2.17, and T-P: 0.15) in this study. If process capability over 1.0, this process is capable and stable to treat wastewater. Therefore, newly developed APID process with modified intermittent aeration mode can be one of the useful processes for stable organic matter and nutrients removal.

본 연구는 호기조에 유동상 접촉여재를 충전한 실험실 규모의 A$_2$O 공법을 이용하여 낮은 C/N비(COD$_{Cr}$/T-N = 1.24) 하수처리시에 외부 탄소원 주입량 여부에 따른 탈질 및 미생물 군집구조 변화특성을 검토하였다. 미생물 군집구조 특성 분석은 퀴논분석을 이용하여 수행하였다. 실험으로부터 얻어진 결론은 다음과 같다. C/N비가 낮은 유입하수의 미생물 군집특성은 유비퀴논(UQ) 동족체 비율이 UQ-8 > UQ-10 > UQ-9 > 기타의 순으로 감소하고 메나퀴논(MK) 동족체는 UQ 동족체에 비해 존재비(f)가 적고 단순하였다. MK/UQ비는 0.41 이하, 비유사도(D)는 0.26 이하이었다. 외부탄소원 미주입 경우, 각 공정에서의 미생물 군집 특성은 혐기조에서는 퀴논종이 3종으로 MK-8이 우점이고 DQ와 EQ값이 작았다. 무산소조에서는 UQ/MK비가 2.3으로 호기성 미생물의 존재비가 높았다. 호기조에서는 부유성인 경우 우점퀴논이 UQ-7이며, 접촉여재 부착성인 경우 우점 퀴논이 UQ-8이었다. 외부탄소원을 주입한 경우, 미생물 군집 구조특성은 미주입시보다 혐기조에서 MK-8 비가 감소하고 UQ-8비, 퀴논종수, DQ값과 EQ값는 증가하였다. 외부탄소원 주입시 탈질향상은 주로 무산소조에서 일어났으며 UQ/MK비가 2.3에서 1.4으로 감소하였다. 이는 주로 UQ-8의 감소와 MK-7 및 MK-8의 증가에 의한 요인으로 미생물군집구조가 Pseudomonas sp.에서 Bacillus 및 Micrococcus sp. 같은 종의 구조로 변화함을 의미한다. 호기조에서 부유성인 경우 우점퀴논이 UQ-7에서 UQ-8으로, 부착성인 경우 UQ-8에서 UQ-10으로 변하였는데 이는 부유성에서 Nitrosomonas가 부착성에서 Nitrobactor의 존재비가 증가하였음을 의미한다.

섬유 염색폐수는 PVA, 유기정련제, 각종 염료 등이 함유되어 있어 처리가 매우 어려운 난분해성 유기폐수로 분류되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 생물학적 처리방법으로 염색폐수의 난분해성 유기물질을 효과적으로 처리할 수 있는 방안으로 활성슬러지를 PEG(Polyethylene glycol)에 포괄고정화한 담체를 고정상 반응기를 이용한 공정에 적용시켜 난분해성 유기물질의 처리효율을 평가하고 적정 운전인자를 검토하였다. 별도로 적응과정을 거치지 않은 활성슬러지를 고정화한 담체를 고정상 반응기에 충전하여 호기성 상태에서 연속식으로 운전하였다. 이때 유입수는 $SCODE_{Cr}$ 약 330 mg/L, $SBOD_5$ 20 mg/L 이하의 생물학적 1차 처리수를 사용하였다. 체류시간의 변화에 따른 각 반응기의 난분해성 유기물질 제거효율을 비교한 결과 EBCT 6 hr을 제외하고는 모두 50% 이상의 유기물($CODE_{Cr}$) 제거효율을 보였고 $COD_{Mn}$의 경우 배출허용기준치 90 mg/L보다 평균 18 mg/L 이상 낮았다. EBCT $6{\sim}24\;hr$ 결과들을 비교한 결과 EBCT 8 hr이 유기물 제거효율과 배출허용기준을 고려할 때 경제적이고 안정된 효율을 얻을 수 있는 적정 체류시간으로 나타났다. 또한 반응기에 충분한 DO를 공급하기 위하여는 주입공기 선속도를 $7\;m^3/m^2{\cdot}hr$ 이상으로 해 주어야 하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 담체내부 미생물을 동정한 결과 PAH, PVA, Phenol 등 난분해성 물질을 분해하는 균주가 성장하고 있었다. 한편, 고정화담체를 131일에 걸쳐 관찰한 결과 압축강도와 담체내부로의 물질확산에 큰 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 포괄고정화 담체를 이용한 염색폐수처리에서 고정상 반응기는 기존 활성슬러지 공정의 후처리로서 적용 가능할 것으로 판단되어진다.

Advanced Phase Isolation Ditch (APID) process was studied to develop economic retrofitting technology, for the plants where retrofitting of common activated sludge process is required. In this study, to evaluate and monitor the effluent water quality ($BOD_5$, SS, T-N, and T-P) and operating conditions (Influent, SVI, SRT, and HRT) as process capable and stable parameters for treating municipal wastewater, a demonstration plant was installed and operated in the existing sewage treatment plant of P city. During this study, the average effluent $BOD_5$, SS, T-N, and T-P concentrations were 7.7, 5.6, 10.8, and 1.6 mg/L. Trend analysis of influent $BOD_5$, SS, T-N, and T-P in APID process were illustrated that APID process need for more strong APID process management on the winter session, such as developing new intermediated aeration mode, operating methods, and managements strategy. At the application of control chart, the signal of uncommon effects at APID process was determined much higher existing control chart tntr conventional control chart in this study. These results indicate that conventional control chart has been collected and determined cleary signal at only stable situation. Therefore, newly developed APID process of dynamic control chart can be one of the useful tool for monitoring and management process.

The amount of biogas increases as the amount of organic waste increases. Recently, biogas from organic waste have been made much efforts to utilize as a energy. In particular, the concentration of $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ generated from sewage sludge and livestock manure treatment are 60-70% and 30-35%, and $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ generated from food wastes are 60-80% and 20-40%. In case of landfill gas, $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ have a concentration of 40-60% and 40-60% respectively. Therefore, in order to use the biogas more widely, it is necessary to convert the biogas to methanol, LNG or DME. In this study, experiments were conducted to produce hydrogen and carbon monoxide through various biogas reforming reactions on $Ni/Ce-ZrO_2/Al2O3$ catalysts. The experiment of synthetic gas synthesis was carried out on a wide concentrations of methane and carbon dioxide, which were the major constituents of biogas from various organic wastes. The effect of $(O_2+CO_2)/CH_4$ (=R') on the yields of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, the conversion rate of methane and carbon dioxide was investigated. Also simulation for syngas synthesis on the $CO_2$ reforming of $CH_4$ was computed by employing total Gibbs free energy minimization method using PRO/II simulator, and compared with the experimental results on wet and dry reforming reaction of biogas.

In this study, a process combined biofiltration with sulfur-utilizing autotrophic denitrification and membrane separation was proposed to examine the efficiency of nitrogen removal. As an experimental device, hollow-fiber module was installed in the center of reactor to generate the flux forward sulfur layer in the cylinder packed with granular sulfur. In addition, a simple module was installed in activated sludge aeration tank which inside and outside of sulfur-using denitrification module was covered with microfilter and the module was considered as an alternative of clarifier. The experiment for developing new MBR process was carried out for three years totally. As the results of first two-year experiment, successful nitrogen removal performance was revealed with lab-scale test and pliot scale plant using artificial wastewater and actual plating wastewater. In this year, pilot scale test using actual domestic wastewater was performed to prove field applicability. As the results, high-rate nitrogen removal performance was confirmed with about 0.19 kg ${NO_3}^--N/m^3$ day of rate. Also significant fouling and pressure increase were not found during the experiment. And, the production ratio of sulfate and the consumption ratio of alkalinity showed a slightly higher value about 311 mg ${SO_4}^{2-}/L$ and 369 mg $CaCO_3$/L, respectively. In conclusion, the developed MBR process can be utilized as an alternative for retrofiting existing wastewater plants as well as new construction of advanced sewage wastewater treatment plants, with cost-effective merit.
