Abstract

Responses of real-time control parameters, such as ORP, DO and pH, to the conditions of biological animal wastewater treatment process were examined to evaluate the stability of real-time control using each parameter. Also an optimum index for supplemental carbon source addition based on NOx-N level was determined under a consideration of denitrification rate by endogenous respiration of microorganism and residual organic matter in liquor. Experiment was performed with lab-scale sequencing batch reactor(SBR) and working volume of the process was 45L. The distinctive nitrogen break point(NBP) on ORP-and DO-time profiles, which mean the termination of nitrification, started disappearing with the maintenance of low NH4-N loading rate. Also the NBP on ORP-and DO-time profiles was no longer observed when high NOx-N was loaded into the reactor, and the sensitivity of ORP became dull with the increase of NOx-N level. However, the distinctive NBP was constantly occurred on pH(mV)-time profile, maintaining unique profile patterns. This stable occurrence of NBP on pH(mV)-time profile was lasted even at very high NOx-N:NH4-N ratio(over 80:1) in reactor, and the specific point could be easily detected by tracking moving slope change(MSC) of the curve. Revelation of NBP on pH(mV)-time profile and recognition of the realtime control point using MSC were stable at a condition of over 300mg/L NOx-N level in reactor. The occurrence of distinctive NBP was persistent on pH(mV)-time profile even at a level of 10,000mg/L STOC(soluble total organic carbon) and the recognition of NBP was feasible by tracing MSC, but that point on ORP and DO-time profiles began to disappear with the increase of STOC level in reactor. The denitrfication rate by endogenous respiration and residual organic matter was about 0.4mg/L.hr., and it was found that 0.83 would be accepted as an index for supplemental carbon source addition when 0.1 of safety factor was applied.

다양한 조건하에서 가축분뇨처리공정을 운전하면서 각 자동제어 인자의 반응을 분석하고 ORP, DO, pH(mV)-time profile를 이용한 자동제어 신뢰성을 평가하였다. 또한 무산소 조건에서의 잔존 유기물 및 미생물 자기산화에 의한 탈질율을 고려한 적정 외부탄소원 공급량 지표를 파악하였다. 실험은 45L의 유효용적을 지닌 실험실 규모의 SBR 공정을 이용하여 수행되었다. ORP-와 pH(mV)-, DO-time profile 상에서 완전질산화를 의미하는 NBP가 뚜렷하게 발현하던 중 NH4-N의 낮은 부하와 고농도 NOx-N 함유 폐수의 유입 및 불충분한 무산소 조건 제공이 이루어졌을 때 ORP-와 DO-time profile 상에서 NBP가 사라지기 시작하였으며 NOx-N의 지속적인 증가에 의해 ORP 값의 민감성이 둔화되기 시작하였다. 그러나 pH(mV)-time profile은 항상 일정한 변화패턴을 유지하면서 암모니아성 질소의 완전 질산화가 이루어졌을 때 뚜렷한 NBP를 발현하였다. NOx-N/NH4-N의 비가 80:1 수준까지 높아지는 조건하에서도 pH(mV)- time profile상에서의 이러한 안정적 NBP의 발현은 지속되었으며 발현되는 NBP는 MSC(Moving Slope Change)의 변화 패턴을 추적함에 의해 인식되도록 프로그램 할 수 있었다. pH(mV)-time profile에서의 NBP의 발현과 MSC를 이용한 자동제어시점 인식은 반응조내 NOx-N 농도가 무려 300mg/L 이상의 수준에서도 안정적이었다. 유기물 농도에 따른 자동제어 인자의 반응을 분석한 시험에서도 반응조내 유기물의 농도가 STOC 기준 약 10,000mg/L 수준으로 증가함에도 불구하고 pH(mV)-time profile 상에서의 이러한 NBP 발현은 지속되었으며 고농도 유기물 축적 하에서도 동일한 자동제어 알고리즘이 이용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 잔존 유기물과 미생물 자기산화에 의한 탈질율은 약 0.4mg/L.hr로 분석되었으며 안전지수 0.1을 도입하여 산출된 NOx-N 기준 적정 외부탄소원 공급량은 0.83 STOC/NOx-N으로 파악되었다.
