This study evaluated the ecotoxicological properties of livestock waste water treated by a LID (Low Impact Development) system, using a mixture of bio-reeds and bio-ceramics as suitable bed media for a subsequent treatment process of a livestock wastewater treatment plant. The relationship between the pollutant reduction rate and the ecotoxicity was analyzed with the effluents from the inlet pilot plant, with vegetated swale and wetlands and the batch type of an infiltration trench. Each pilot plant consisted of a bio process using bio-reeds and bio-ceramics as bed media, as well as a general process using general reeds and a bed as a control group. The results indicated that, after applying the HRT 24 hour LID method, the ecotoxicity was considerably lowered and the batch type pilot plant was shown to be effective for toxicity reduction. The LID method is expected to be effective for water quality management, considering ecotoxicity by not only as a nonpoint source pollution abatement facility but also, as a subsequent treatment process linked with a livestock manure purification facility. It is necessary to take the LID technic optimization study further to apply it as a subsequent process for livestock wastewater treatment.

As the seriousness of water pollution resulted from nitrogen is being magnified, research has been conducted to reduce nitrogen in sewage as well as wastewater. Particularly research on innovative nitrogen removal methods that are based on the reaction of nitritation and are economically feasible and eco-friendly has been receiving attention. However, research on the applicability and efficiency of the methods based on the reaction of nitritation has not been completely done yet. Accordingly, the current study has analyzed the characteristics of sewage flowing into municipal wastewater treatment plants, primary clarifier supernatant, recycled water, and livestock wastewater and also operated a laboratory-level reactor. The result shows that recycled water and livestock wastewater contain higher-concentration nitrogen than other kinds of sewage, so they increase nitrogen loading in the water treatment line. And the result of operating a reactor shows that because of ammonium nitrogen low concentration, sewage and primary clarifier supernatant do not induce the reaction of nitritation. Also, there exist differences in the conditions of retention time inducing the reaction of nitritation by the types of sewage, and this seems to be attributed to organic compound and ammonium nitrogen concentration. Among the kinds of sewage inducing the reaction of nitritation, anaerobic digester supernatant indicates the highest efficiency.

유역으로 유입되는 오염물질의 발생원은 점오염원과 비점오염원으로 구분할 수 있으며 점오염원의 경우 생활하수, 산업폐수, 그리고 축산폐수에 대해 처리시설 확충 및 기술개발을 통해 관리하고 있다. 비점오염원에서의 오염물질 유출은 토지이용, 강우, 불특정적인 오염물질 투입상태 등에 따라 다르며, 지역적 특성에 영향을 받기 때문에 불확실성이 고려되어야 한다. 특히 농촌지역에서의 비점오염은 접근이 어렵고 관리주체가 모호하여 좀처럼 규명되지 않았으며, 전국적으로 그 영향이 정량화되지 않아 실질적인 관리 및 대책마련에 어려움이 있었다. 특히, 가축분뇨의 발생으로부터 처리, 자원화에 이르기까지 각 관리체계에 있어서 축산비점오염의 배출경로와 수계오염부하량, 수질환경 영향을 정밀하게 분석하여 향후 대책마련을 위한 기초자료를 확보할 필요가 있다. 또한 전국적으로 비점오염이 수계에 미치는 영향과, 그 중 축산비점오염의 영향을 면밀히 분석하여 향후 정책 및 제도개선을 위한 과학적 기초자료로서 활용할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 축산 밀집 지역을 대상으로 오염원 조사를 통해 강우시 비점오염 모니터링 지점을 선정 하였으며, 년5회씩 강우 모니터링을 하여 기초데이터를 축적 하였다. 대상지역은 강원도 횡성군에 위치한 일리천 유역이며 농가 수는 총 90개의 농가가 위치하고 있는데 그 중 돼지 1,467마리, 한우 1,957마리, 젖소 581마리, 개 2,880마리, 닭 75,000마리, 사슴 4마리로 조사되었다. 대상유역을 대상으로 배출부하량을 조사한 결과 BOD 배출부하량은 총 509.3 kg/day, T-N 배출부하량은 총 331.5 kg/day, T-P 배출부하량은 총 28.3 kg/day로 조사되었다. 유출특성을 파악하기 위하여 유량가중평균농도(Event Mean Concentration, EMC)를 산정한 결과 BOD의 경우 MW-4에서 1.2 mg/L - 7.2 mg/L, MW-5에서 0.8 mg/L - 6.3 mg/L, MW-7에서 0.7 mg/L - 5.2 mg/L의 범위를 보였다. T-N의 경우 MW-4에서 1.426 mg/L - 5.321 mg/L, MW-5에서 1.205 mg/L - 4.27 mg/L, MW-7에서 0.989 mg/L - 3.859 mg/L의 범위를 보였다. T-P의 경우 MW-4에서 0.245 mg/L - 0.632 mg/L, MW-5에서 0.236 mg/L - 0.596 mg/L, MW-7에서 0.213 mg/L - 0.521 mg/L의 범위를 보였다. 본 연구에서 EMC를 산정한 방법은 평시 수질 및 유량을 정하는 기준에 따라 값이 많이 달라질 수 있다. 따라서 합리적으로 평시 부하량을 제외하고 강우시의 영향을 파악할 수 있는 EMC 산정방법에 대한 추가적인 고찰이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The effects of microbubble-oxygen physicochemical method for the removal of organic pollutants, nitrogen, and phosphorus contained in animal manure were investigated using a laboratory scale single reactor. The characteristics of used livestock manure were $36,894{\pm}5,024mg\;TCOD/L$, $22,031{\pm}2,018mg\;SCOD/L$, $4,150{\pm}35mg\;NH_4-N/L$, and $659{\pm}113mg\;PO_4-P/L$. It was confirmed that the amount of organic pollutants, nitrogen, and phosphorus removal was increased by the use of oxygen rather than air as the gas supplied with the microbubble, and by input of larger oxygen amount. When the oxygen was fed with 600 mL flow rate per minute, TCOD and phosphorus removal were 2.5 times and 5.6 times higher than those of air supplied. As the microbubble-oxygen reaction time was longer, the removal rate of nutrients increased gradually. The removal rates of ammonium and phosphorus reach to $41.03{\pm}0.20%$ and $65.49{\pm}1.39%$, respectively, after 24 hours. When the coagulation treatment method was applied to increase phosphorus removal rate from the effluent of microbubble-oxygen treatment, the phosphorus was removed up to 92.7%. However, the removal rate of organic pollutants (TCOD) was as small as $28.7{\pm}0.2%$ within the first 6 hours, and then the negligible removal of TCOD was recorded. This study suggests that microbubble-oxygen can be applied not only livestock manure but also aeration tank of various wastewater treatment plant, which can reduce the load on the associated unit process and produce stable high-quality effluent.

Three sludge types from pharmaceutical byproducts and one sludge type from cosmetic waste-water sludge as raw materials of compost were used in a field based concrete pot ($4\;m^2$, $2\;m{\times}2\;m$) for investigating damage of red pepper cultivation. These sludges and pig manure (1 Mg/10a, dry basis) were incorporated into the upper of clay loam soil prior to transplanting with red pepper. Changes in concentration and properties of heavy metal for both of soil and plant were investigated 4 times during of red pepper growth. Plant height and stem diameter of red pepper in sludge treatments except to Pharmaceutical sludge 3 were poor than those of NPK treatment. This result were regarded as an effect of incompleted decomposition sludge which has a lot of organic matter concentration. Amount of total As was increased rapidly Jul. 8. in soil, total Zn Cu Pb Cd were in harvest time, and 1 N-HCl extractable Zn Cu Pb Cd As were in harvest at middle stage and then decreased. Amounts of nitrogen in plant (leaf and stem) were high in Phamaceutical Sludge 1 and fig Manure treatment in early and middle stage because of organic matter and nitrogen concentrations and characteristics. Amounts of Zn, Pb, and Ni in leaf and amount of Zn and Pb in stem were increased in harvest time so that we need to have a concern in detail. Total yield of red pepper was Pig Manure > Phamaceutical Sludge 3 > Phamaceutical Sludge 1 > NPK > Phamaceutical Sludge 2 and Cosmetic Sludge treatment was decreased considerably to compare to others. Amounts of Zn and Cu in green and red pepper in harvest time were higher than the other heavy metals. Finally these results can use to utilize that finding damage on crop for authorization and suitability estimation of raw material of compost.

According to the in social aspects such as population growth, urbanization and industrialization, development of livestock industry by meat consumption, amount of organic wastes (containing sewage sludge and food waste, animal manure, etc) has been increased annually in South Korea. Precise monitoring of 11 organic wastes biogas facilities were conducted. The organic decomposition rate of organic wastewater was 68.2 % for food wastes, 66.8 % for animal manure and 46.2 % for sewage sludge and 58.8 % for total organic wastes. As a result of analyzing the biogas characteristics before and after the pretreatment, the total average of the whole facility was measured to be 560 ppm using iron salts and desulfurization, and decreased to 40 ppm when the reduction efficiency was above 90 %. Particularly, when iron salt is injected into the digester, the treatment efficiency is about 93 %, and the average is reduced to 150 ppm. In the case of dehumidification, the absolute humidity and the relative humidity were analyzed. The dew point temperature of the facility where the dehumidification facility was well maintained as $14^{\circ}C$, the absolute humidity was $12.6g/m^3$, and the relative humidity was 35 %. Therefore, it is necessary to compensate for the disadvantages of biogasification facilities of organic waste resources and optimize utilization of biogas and improve operation of facilities. This study was conducted to optimize biogas utilization of type of organic waste(containing sewage sludge and food waste, animal manure) through precision monitoring.

Anode electrode in a microbial fuel cell (MFC) should transfer the receiving electron as well as provide large surface area that can be immobilized microorganisms. Microorganisms' population is one of important factors to improve the current generation and to treat the livestock wastewater by biological treatment. These studies were attempted to investigate if stainless-steel wire skein (SSWS) could be used as anode electrode replacement a graphite felt electrode in microbial fuel cell. For these studies, pretreated livestock wastewater was used diluted to 500 mg/L as COD before use. At this time, the current showed a little difference of about 5% when using each of a SSW and graphite felt (control). There was no significant difference in the current value. The organic removal rate in the microbial fuel cells used graphite felt and SSWS was 82.4% and 88.3%, respectively. The COD removal in the MFC used the SSWS was higher than that of graphite felt. Ammonium nitrogen was showed similar trend in two case all. These results about current generation and organic matter reduction seem possible that SSWS was used to anode electrode. When SSWS is used, the initial investment for system construction is expected to be able to reduce by approximately 1/50.
