  • Repeated additions of untreated slurry to soil affected ecology and caused high levels of heavy metal in soil and ground water. The objective of this study was to evaluate heavy metal from hanwoo slurry with ferrous sulfate ($FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$), aluminum sulfate [$Al_2(SO_4)_3{\cdot}14H_2O$, alum] and aluminum chloride ($AlCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$) as a way to improve environmental management in hanwoo industry. The treatment rates, which were incorporated totally within the hanwoo slurry, were 1.0 g and 1.5 g of ferrous sulfate, alum and aluminum chloride/25 g of hanwoo slurry. The various rates of chemical additives significantly increased dry matter (9.98~13.94%) and decreased pH (3.48~6.52) compared with the controls. The use of chemical additives decreased Fe (11~29%), Al (7~12%), Zn (13~36%), and Cu (4~32%) contents, except for Fe in hanwoo slurry with ferrous sulfate and Al in hanwoo slurry with alum and aluminum chloride. In addition, the reduction in heavy metal should be associated with reduction in pH. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that alum and aluminum chloride additives at rate of 1.5 g were cost-effective management practice that significantly reduces heavy metal from hanwoo slurry, while it may be improved environmental management.

  • The effect of alum$(Al{\cdot}K(SO_4)_2{\cdot}12H_{2}O)$ on the activity of raw starch-digesting enzyme produced by alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. was investigated. In adding alum of 0.5%(w/w), activities of raw starch-digesting enzyme on the gelatinized and raw rice starches have not been inhibited. In case of adding alum of 5%(w/w), competitive and uncompetitive inhibition were observed for the gelatinized and raw rice starches, respectively. The inhibitory effect on the raw starch was much higher than that on the gelatinized starch.

  • The effects of alum$(Al{\cdot}K(SO_4)_2{\cdot}12H_{2}O)$ on the rheological properties of $3{\sim}9%(w/v)$ gelatinized solutions of nonwaxy and waxy rice starches were investigated to evaluate the possibility of utilizing a starch modifying agent. Gelatinized non-waxy and waxy rice starch solutions showed a pseudoplastic flow behavior with yield stress. Pseudoplasticity of two rice starch solutions increased by the addition of alum$(0.05{\sim}1.0%,\;w/w)$. Alum increased the yield stresses and consistency indexes of two rice starches and these values decreased with increasing starch concentration. Also, alum(0.5%, w/w) increased the flow activation energy of gelatinized waxy rice starch solution and activation energy decreased with increasing waxy rice starch concentration in the range of $3{\sim}7%(w/v)$, but for the nonwaxy rice starch, activation energy decreased at starch concentration of 7%(w/v). From the above results, it was found that alum had the possibility of utilizing a modifying agent for the rheological property of gelatinized starch solution.

  • Considering the characteristics of a filtration bio-reactor equipped with a mesh filter module which can effectively maintain high concentration of biomass and enhanced solid-liquid separation performance, the hybrid process of filtration bio-reactor combined with coagulation was investigated to get improved filtration characteristics as well as water quality in this work. Two bio-reactors (Run-1 & Run-2) were operated under the following conditions: working volume of 25 L, continuous loading of a synthetic wastewater (BOD: 200 mg/L, T-N: 50 mg/L, T-P: 5 mg/L), where an appropriate amount of alum ($Al_2(SO_4)_3{\cdot}18H_2O$) was added once a day into the reactor (Run-2). In the system without using a alum (Run-1), the clogging of mesh filter module was observed two times through 85 days of whole operation. Meanwhile, the filter module did not clog even at higher MLSS concentration (6,000~12,000 mg/L) and the stable filtration (0.7 mid) was continued in the case of using a alum. Due to the stable formation of cake layers, BOD and SS were shown below 6 and 3 mg/L, respectively. T-P and pH of the effluent were changed because of the intermittent addition of the alum. In the case of Al/P=2.5, the average T-P removal efficiency per day was 85.2% and the average T-P concentration of the effluent was 0.3 mg/L. However, the removal efficiency of phosphate was influenced by pH in the reactor.
