Abstract
BACKGROUND: To design and develop a constructed wetland for effective livestock wastewater treatment, it is necessary to understand the removal mechanisms of various types of pollutants in constructed wetlands. The objective of this study was to evaluate the treatment efficiency of pollutants under different types of fraction in constructed wetland system for treating piggery wastewater. METHODS AND RESULTS: The piggery wastewater treatment plant that consisted of activated sludge tank, aerobic and anaerobic beds was constructed. The concentration of COD(Chemical oxygen demand) in effluent by fraction was 71.5 mg/L for soluble COD, 142 mg/L insoluble COD. The concentration of SS(Suspended solid) in effluent by existing form was 102 mg/L for volatile SS, 15.5 mg/L for fixed SS. The concentration of T-N(Total nitrogen) and T-P(Total phosphorus) in effluent by existing form were 12.8 mg/L and 3.05 mg/L for dissolved form, 35.0 mg/L and 1.93 mg/L for suspended form. The removal efficiencies of COD, SS, T-N and T-P in hot season(summer and autumn) were higher than those in cold season(spring and winter). The removal efficiencies of COD, SS, T-N and T-P in effluent were 98.0, 99.0, 98.2 and 99.2% for all seasons, respectively. CONCLUSION(S): The results indicated that removal types of pollutants were insoluble COD(ICOD), volatile SS(VSS), dissolved T-N(DTN) and dissolved T-P(DTP) in constructed wetlands for treating piggery wastewater.
돈사폐수의 분획별 및 우리나라 기후변화 특성에 대한 활성슬러지-인공습지 공법에 의한 돈사폐수처리장의 대응성을 검토하기 위하여 오염물질 분획별 및 계절별 수처리효율을 조사하였다. 오염물질 분획별 수처리효율을 조사한 결과 최종 방류수의 COD는 213.5 mg/L정도로 soluble형태가 71.5 mg/L, insoluble형태가 142 mg/L정도이었고, SS함량은 118 mg/L정도로 volatile형태가 102 mg/L, fixed형태가 15.5 mg/L정도이었으며, 최종 방류수의 T-N함량은 47.8 mg/L 정도로 dissolved형태가 12.8 mg/L, suspended형태가 35.0 mg/L정도이었다. 또한 방류수의 T-P함량은 3.05 mg/L정도로 dissolved형태가 1.13 mg/L, suspended형태가 1.93 mg/L정도이었다. 활성슬러지-인공습지 공법에 의한 돈사폐수처리장에서 계절별 수처리효율을 조사한 결과 COD, SS 및 T-P의 처리효율은 98, 99 및 99%이상으로 계절에 따라 별 다른 차이 없이 높은 처리효율을 보였고, T-N 처리효율은 여름 (99.5%)${\geq}$가을 (99.1%)${\geq}$겨울 (98.7%)${\geq}$봄 (98.2%)의 순으로 여름철에 가장 높은 처리효율을 보였다.
