Abstract

Ninety strains of photosynthetic bacteria were isolated from a local stream at Kyonggi-do, Korea and were further screened. Using these isolated strains, experiments were performed under various light and oxygen conditions in order to select strains with high nitrogen $(NH_3-N,\; NO_3^--N)$ removal efficiencies. Results showed that all the strains screened removed $NH_3-N$, the light had no effect on nitrogen removal, and the nitrogen removal rate was higher aerobically than anaerobically. The removal of $NO_3^--N$ was showed up to 35.3% in some specific strains. Results of batch experiments using Rhodocyclus gelatinosus, an isolated strain with a superior removal rate of $NH_3--N$ and $NH_3-N$, under the anaerobic condition, showed that the removal rate of organics and $NH_3-N$ was the highest (98.2 and 89.0%, respectively) at the CODcr (mg/L)/biomass (mg/L) ratio of 0.2, and the $NH_3-N$ concentration did not increase with the decreasing $NH_3-N$ concentration. Experimental results from various C/N ratios confirmed that the effective removal rate (75.8%) of $NH_3-N$ occurred even at the low (5:1) C/N ratio as well as high ratios, and the simulataneous removal of $NO_3^--N$ (96.0%).

한국 경기도 일대의 하천으로부터 90 균주의 광합성 박테리아를 순수 분리ㆍ동정하였다. 이들중 고효율의 질소($NH_3$-N, $NO_{3{^{-}$-N)제거능을 가진 균주들을 다양한 조건(명처-혐기, 호기: 암처-혐기, 호기)하에서 선별하였다. $NH_3$-N은 위의 4가지 조건하에서 모든 균주가 제거하였고, 평균 제거율은 호기조건(83.8%)에서 혐기조건(75.1%)보다 약간 높게 나타났다. NH$_3$-N의 감소에 따른 $NH_3$-N증가는 일어나지 않았다. $NO_{3{^{-}$-N은 혐기조건에서 소수의 특정 균주에 의해 제거되었다. 명처-혐기조건에서 다양한 CODcr (mg/L)/biomass (mg/L)에 따른 실험 결과는 CODcr (mg/L)/biomass (mg/L)0.2에서 유기물(98.2%)과 $NH_3$-N(89.0%)의 제거율이 가장 높게 나타났다. 명처-혐기조건에서 다양한 C/N 비율에 따른 실험 결과는, 높은 C/N비 뿐만 아니라 낮은 C/N비(5:1)에서도 $NH_3$-N의 효과적인 제거율(75.8%)을 확인 할 수 있었으며, 또한 $NO_{3{^{-}$-N (96.0%)의 동시적 제거를 확인할 수 있었다.
