Abstract

Coagulating effects of eco-friendly coagulant materials such as zeolite, kaolinite, loess and chitosan upon sewage sludge were evaluated. And coagulating effects of the mixtures of those materials and polymer (polyacrylamide) were also investigated. Coagulating efficiency of loess was higher than that of kaolinite and zeolite at the treatment levels of 2,500~50,000mg/L. Coagulating efficiencies of zeolite, kaolinite and loess at the treatment level of 20,000mg/L were lower than that of 1,000 mg/L of polymer, which meant that single application of those materials in real plant were not feasible. At the treatment level of 1,000 mg/L, coagulating efficiency of Chitosan was much lower than that of polymer, which also meant that single use of chitosan in real plant could be unrealistic because of its high price. However, the application of the mixture of 'polymer 80mg/L + kaolinite or loess 500 mg/L + chitosn 10mg/L' or the mixture of 'polymer 80mg/L + kaolinite or loess 500mg/L' was promising way for coagulating sewage sludge.

슬러지 응집제로서 폴리머, 제올라이트, 고령토, 황토, 키토산 등의 하수슬러지에 대한 응집효과 및 폴리머와 이들 응집제를 혼합한 물질의 응집효과를 검토하였다. 2,500~50,000 mg/L 농도에서 황토가 고령토, 제올라이트보다 하수슬러지에 대한 응집효율이 높았다. 제올라이트, 고령토, 황토 20,000 mg/L 처리의 응집효과는 폴리머 1,000 mg/L 처리의 응집효과보다 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 제올라이트, 고령토, 황토 단독 처리로는 현행 하수슬러지 탈수 시에 사용 중인 폴리머와 같은 응집효과는 기대하기 어려웠다. 키토산 역시 폴리머와 같은 1,000 mg/L 처리에서 응집효과가 현저하게 낮은 것과 고가의 구입비용을 감안하였을 때 키토산 단독처리는 현실적이지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 하수슬러지에 대한 지렁이처리법 적용에 유리한 응집제 조합은 '폴리머 80mg/L +고령토 또는 황토 500 mg/L + 키토산 10 mg/L' 으로 판단되며, 다음으로 '폴리머 80 mg/L + 고령토 또는 황토 500 mg/L' 조합으로 판단된다.
