Abstract

A beterotrophic Pseudomonas putida B2 was used to treat of hydrogen sulfide containing gas. The experimental approach involved operating two indentical bench-scale biofilters with media consisting of a mixture of peatmoss, perlite and granular activated carbon(GAC). One column was seeded with Pseudomonas putida B2 and the other was left unseeded. The biofilter was operated for 16 days under EBRT for 20-40 sec, at a temperature of 25-30$^{\circ}C$ and a hydrogen sulfide concentration of 40-190 ppm. The biofilter inocculated with P.putida B2 exhibited high hydrogen sulfide removal efficiency, average of 95%, at a gydrogen sulfide concentration of 40-190 ppm (flow rate 3.6 L/min). However, at a shock loading of 190 ppm the biofiter showed a removal efficiency of 78.9% and the control only showed a removal efficiency of 31.6%. The critical load of this biofilter was 14.83 g/㎥hr, and the critical load of the control column was 4.93 g/㎥hr. These results suggest that P. putida B2 has the potential to be used as a $H_2S$ removal agent in a biofilter.

본 실험은 Pseudomonas p$mu$tida 82를 접종한 biofilter에서의 H2S 제거능올 알아 보았다. 담체로는 유기담체로 peat moss, 무기탐체로 perlite 그리고 활성탄(GAC)을 각각 부피비로 50:25:25로 혼합하여 사용하였고, P. putida B2가 접종된 실험구는 본 균주가 접종되지 않은 대조구와 비교해본 결과 30% 정도의 제거율 향상을 볼 수 있었고, 운전중 $H_2S$ 부하 변동에 대해 대조구보다 안정되고 높은 제거율을 나타낸다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 염계 부하량은 제거율 100%를 기준으로 할 때 살헝구의 경우 $14.83 g/m$3hr$인 것으로 나타났고, 대조 구의 경우 최대 $4.93 g/m$3hr$나타냐 약 3배 정도 질험구가 더 큰 부하량 처리능력을 나타내였다.- 본 질험결파로 탈취 균주로서 P. putida B2의 가능성을 타진해 본 결파 충불한 $H_2S$ 제거력을 발휘했으며, 아울러 활성탄을 점가하여 부하 변동에 대해 보다 안정적인 제거효과를 보여 현 탈취공정의 부하 변동에 대한 안정성과 순치 기간의 필요성율 극복할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
