This study focused on effective decomposition methods for low concentrated organic compounds from the reuse of industrial wastewater, and confirmed the possibility through photocatalyst media. Photocatalyst immobilized media was developed to carry on this experiment which confirmed the removal possibility of low concentrated organic compounds. Considering the stability and efficiency of photocatalyst immobilization, inorganic support, hollow bead, and $TiO_2$ nano powder were used. As a result of the removal experiment, the removal efficiencies of acetonitrile, ethanol, IPA(Isopropyl alcohol), methanol were above 75% after 15 minutes while those of acetone, acetaldehyde, urea were 10%, 45%, 20%, respectively after 60 minutes. If further studies were made to increase the surface area of the photocatalyst immobilized media, the efficiency of the removal of low concentrated organic compounds can be improved and this solution can also be used in an actual treatment process.

In order to develop of support medla for bloom reactor, physicochemical properties and attachability of surface of activated carbon, clay mineral, non-clay mineral, and waste mold sand were enamined. Measured physicochemical properties of materials were surface roughness, mean particle size, surface area, hydrophobicity, and surface charge. At a tested materials, activated carbon was the best attachable material and microorganisms were attached $20.1{\times}10^7CFU/cm^2$ at surface, compared with diatomaceous earth which were attached of $9.2{\times}10^7CFU/cm^2$ in our research, surface area and hydrophobicity show- ed more Influence than any other factor on attachment of microorganisms.

A pilot scale anaerobic fixed-bed with a reactor volume of $2.8m^3$ was built to treat slaughterhouse wastewater. Bamboo rings were chosen as support media mainly because of their cheaper price in underdeveloped countries. Even with their lower porosity and specific surface, the reactor performance showed a maximum 95% COD removal efficiency at an organic loading rate (OLR) of $1kg\;COD/m^3-d$ with its corresponding hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 7.5 d. At a higher OLR of $4.0kg\;COD/m^3-d$, the COD removal efficiency of 75% was achieved with an HRT of 2 d. No big difference in COD removal efficiencies was found between the reactors operated in both upflow and downflow modes. Their operational behavior and effluent characteristics were similar. The effluent COD/TKN ratio of 6.67 at an OLR of $4.0kg\;COD/m^3-d$ was only marginal acceptable range for a subsequent biological denitrification process. Otherwise carbon supplementation is required at a lower OLR.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the biofilm reactors capable of doing high efficiency treatment. Vertical fluidized bed biofilm reactor(VFBBR) and spiral fluidized bed biofilm reactor(SFBBR) was used for their performence in biodegradation of artificial sewage. The factors influencing the efficiency of those reactors were compared with difference of physical condition. They had same size but different structure to gain access of its unique characteristics. When recycle solution with flow rate of 22 mL/min and artificial sewage with flow rate of 2~10 mL/min were fed into two reactors in aerobic state, the average $COD_{cr}$, removal rate for biodegradation of SFBBR was greater than VFBBR. After reactor feed sewage was constantly maintained as flow rate of 4 mL/min and the recycle solution were changed to 10~32 mL/min respectively, the average $COD_{cr}$ removal rate of artificial sewage in SFBBR was greater than VFBBR. In this experiment for addition of support media into two reactors SFBBR was 4.1% excellent than VFBBR. Above all, SFBBR excelled VFBBR in boidegradation of organic matter in sewage.

D염색공단의 폴리에스테르 알카리 감량폐수 및 호발폐수가 혼합된 실제 종합염색폐수를 처리하기 위하여 D염색공단의 종합폐수처리장 반송슬러지를 고정한 폐타이어담체를 충전한 재순환 유동상 바이오필터와 소성된 $TiO_2$ 코팅-glass bead를 광촉매담체로 적용한 UV/광촉매반응기를 결합한 재순환 통합시스템을 구축하여 운전하였다. 그 결과로서 재순환 통합시스템의 총 $COD_{cr}$ 제거율과 총 색도 제거율 추이는 각각 약 81% 및 55% 정도를 유지하였다. 이러한 재순환 통합시스템의 총 $COD_{cr}$ 및 총 색도 제거율의 제고효과는 각각 최대 약 7% 및 3%로 평가되었다. 재순환 통합시스템의 유동상 바이오필터 및 광촉매반응공정은 총 제거율에 대한 상대기여도로서 각각 총 $COD_{cr}$ 제거율의 약 94% 및 6%를 처리하고, 총 색도 제거율의 약 86% 및 14%를 처리하였다. 이와 같이 재순환 통합시스템의 광촉매반응공정에서는 총 제거율에 대한 색도 제거율의 상대기여도가 $COD_{cr}$ 제거율의 상대기여도보다 약 2.4배 정도 컸다. 따라서 본 연구의 재순환 통합시스템에서 광촉매반응공정은 $COD_{cr}$ 제거보다 아조결합과 같이 염료에서 색을 나타내는 화학결합을 깨는 역할에 더욱 효율성이 있었다. 또한 본 연구의 재순환 통합시스템에서 각 단위공정들의 $COD_{cr}$ 및 색도 제거율이, 재순환 통합시스템의 총 $COD_{cr}$ 및 색도 제거율에 미치는 영향에 대한 모델식과 대수적 상관관계를 구하고 분석하였다.
