Abstract

The purpose of this research is the evaluation of removal efficiency of THMFP in BAC. The changes of four types of THMFP and total THMFP were examined in the influent and effluent of BAC filter from March to December in 2008. It turned out that the amounts of brominated THMFP were obviously higher in winter and autumn compared to the spring and summer, which also resulted in an increase of the total-THMFP levels during winter and autumn. In addition, long-term running of BAC filter shows the good removal function of chloroform formation potential, but not brominated THMFP; with further bromination, this function was declined, as it shows the formation of bromoform in BAC filter during October and December. These results were caused by changing of the proportion of $Br^-$/DOC.

본 연구에서는 BAC 공정을 장기간 운전하면서 유입수중의 $Br^-$ 농도변화에 따른 THMFP 제거율을 평가하였다. BAC 공정을 장기간 운전하면서 THMFP 구성종별로 제거능을 살펴본 결과, $CHCl_3$ 생성능의 경우는 계절변화에 따른 유입수중의 $Br^-$ 농도변화에 따라 관계없이 우수한 제거능을 나타내었으나, 브롬계 THM 생성능의 경우는 유입수중의 $Br^-$/DOC 비가 증가할수록 제거율은 저하되었다. 또한, BAC 공정에서의 THMFP 구성종별로 제거특성을 살펴본 결과, 유입수의 $Br^-$/DOC 비가 높은 경우에 EBCT가 증가할수록 $CHCl_3$ FP의 제거율은 증가하였으나 브롬계 THMFP의 경우는 EBCT가 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, THMFP 구성종의 브롬원자 개수가 많아질수록 제거율은 감소하였다.
