하천, 강어귀 및 해안 지역의 점착성 유사는 흐름 내에 입자의 충돌에 의한 흡탈착으로 인해 다양한 크기의 플록을 형성한다. 이 플록은 오염물과도 군집을 형성하여 하상이 퇴적되는 경우가 많으며 홍수 등과 같은 외부 충격으로 인해 재부 되어 하천 환경 및 생태계에 악영향을 미친다. 군집의 형성은 화학적인 결합과 물리적인 응집으로 분류할 수 있는데, 미세 점착성 유사의 군집형성에 대한 연구는 주로 화학적인 결합에 대한 연구가 활발하다. 반대로 물리적인 결합 혹은 외부 충격에 대한 플록형성 매커니즘에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 교반기를 활용한 실험을 통하여 점착성 유사에 대한 물리적인 흡탈착 과정을 분석하였다. 유입된 점착성 유사를 교반기로 외부충격을 주어 흡착과 탈착하는 정도를 탁도와 농도를 통해 정량화하였다. 실험은 원통 수조에서 수행되었으며, 교반기의 RPM을 조절하면서 외부충격의 강도를 조절하였다. 초기 실험을 통해 탁도-농도의 관계를 제시하였고 이를 활용하여 교반강도와 점착성 유사의 농도를 분석하였다. 실험 결과 교반강도가 증가할수록 플록 형성이 활발하게 진행되었으나, 일정 교반강도 이상에서는 다른 흡착 과정을 보였다. 이를 토대로 점착성 유사의 흡탈착의 임계값을 제시하였다. 향후 본 연구결과와 유속 혹은 난류강도 등의 하천특성과 연관성을 분석한다면 하천 내 오염물 관리에 효과적으로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mechanical mixing intensity on composting. The major parameters investigated were the mixing intensity and initial moisture content. Laboratory scale composting reactors with mixing equipment were used in this study. Wastes used for the study were raw nightsoil sludge, nightsoil sludge after vacuum evaporation treatment and pig manure. When moisture contents were 60% and 63%, amount of organic material degraded in the continuous mixing reactors was higher than that in the intermittent mixing reactors. Compost produced from reactors with continuous mixing had better texture than that obtained from reactors with intermittent mixing. When moisture content was 68%, organic waste was kneaded rather than mixed in the continuous mixing reactors. Amount of organic material degraded in the continuous mixing reactors also was lower than that in the intermittent mixing reactors.

In this study, the effects of mixing intensity and coagulant dosages on the characteristics of floc growth for phosphorus removal were investigated. The experiments were conducted under Al/P molar ratio of 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0; rapid mixing intensity with G value of 100, 300, and 500 $s^{-1}$. The characteristics of floc growth were measured by flocculation index (FSI) and the removal efficiencies of phosphorus by using different size filters. The removal efficiencies of soluble phosphorus increased as Al/P molar ratio and rapid mixing intensity increased. However, the highest removal efficiencies of T-P were observed at G value of 300 $s^{-1}$. When Al/P molar ratio was lower than 1.0, the value of FSI at G value of 500 $s^{-1}$ was the largest. However, when Al/P ratio was larger than 1.0, the value of FSI at G value 300 $s^{-1}$ was the largest. Effects of mixing intensity and Al/P molar ratio on coagulation for phosphorus removal of synthetic and real wastewater effluent were observed to be similar.

최근에 경제성장과 생활향상에 따른 물수요량이 급증함과 동시에 소비자의 질적요구가 강화되고 있는 실정이다. 기존 상수원인 하천의 수질오염으로 인하여 소비자의 요구사항을 충족시키기 위해서는 기존 정수처리법의 개선이 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 급속여과법의 전염소 처리공정 및 응집.침전 공정의 개선을 통하여 음용수 수질을 개선하고자 하였다. 전염소 대신에 적용한 생물막여과 공정(BAF)의 처리효과 및 응집.침전 공정의 경우는 교반강도에 따른 침전효과에 따른 수질특성을 조사하였다. BAF공정은 탁월한 $NH_4$-N의 제거를 통하여 후속공정에 대한 오염부하량을 저감시킬수 있었고, 응집.침전의 경우 본 연구에서 제안한 응집제 주입량에 따른 교반강도의 실험식인에 의하여 구한 최적교반강도용 용집공정에 적용시 응집.침전의 효과를 향상시킨 수 있어 음용수 수질 향상을 기대 할 수 있었다.

최근 그린 친환경, 지구온난화방지와 환경 부하물질저감, 기기 고효율화, 연비향상 등의 관점에서 항공기, 자동차 등 운송기계와 휴대용 전자제품 등 경량화가 요구되는 분야에서 경량합금의 사용이 급증하고 있다. 특히, 경량합금 중 가장 가벼운 마그네슘 합금은 최근 주목을 받고 있는 금속재료이다. 그러나 마그네슘합금은 알루미늄합금과는 달리 상온 성형성 및 접합성이 양호하지 않은 관계로 판재를 이용한 구조부품의 제작을 위해서는 많은 연구가 필요하다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구는 마그네슘합금 판재의 마찰 교반 점용접을 시도하였다. CNC 밀링머신을 사용하여 프로브의 회전 및 삽입 속도에 변화를 주어 접합 특성을 평가하였고, 각 변수의 영향을 조사하였다. 적외선 열화상기와 로드셀을 사용하여 마찰 교반 점용접 중에 발생하는 교반부 온도와 접합부에 가해지는 수직부가하중의 거동을 측정하였다. 마찰 교반 점용접 후, 시험편의 접합 상태와 접합부 단면 관찰을 통해 접합 상태를 조사하였다. 그리고 인장전단 실험을 실시하여 마찰 교반 점용접된 시혐편의 접합강도를 평가하였고, 파단된 시험편의 파면을 관찰하였다.

The deep soil mixing, on ground modification technique, has been used for many diverse applications including building and bridge foundations, port and harbor foundations, retaining structures, liquefaction mitigation, temporary support of excavation and water control. This method has the basic objective of finding the most efficient and economical method for mixing cement with soil to secure settlements through improvement of stability on soft ground. In this research, the experiments were conducted on a laboratory scale with the various test conditions of mixing method; the angle of mixing wing, mixing speed. Strength and shapes of improved soil of these test conditions of deep mixing method were analysed. From the study, it was found that the mixing conditions affect remarkably to the strength and shapes of improved soils.

The objectives of this research are to (1) observe changes in particle size distribution due to formation of microflocs during coagulation process (2) identify the membrane fouling potential on cross flow system (3) investigate the mechanism of membrane fouling. The rate of flux decline for the hydrophobic membrane was significantly greater than for the hydrophilic membrane, regardless of pretreatment conditions. The pretreatment of the raw water significantly reduced the fouling of the UF membrane. Also, the rate of flux decline for the hydrophobic membrane was considerably greater than for the hydrophilic membrane. Applying coagulation process before membrane filtration showed not only reducing membrane fouling, but also improving the removal of dissolved organic materials that might otherwise not be removed by the membrane. That is, during the mixing period, substantial changes in particle size distribution occurred under rapid and slow mixing condition due to the simultaneous formation of microflocs and NOM precipitates. Therefore, combined pretreatment using coagulation not only improved dissolved organics removal efficiency but also flux recovery efficiency.

The characteristic floc growth of Al-based coagulants was investigated in the aspect of mixing intensity and visualization of generated flocs during coagulation and flocculation processes. Zeta potential of turbid particles in the artificial water nearly approached to zero at pH 8-9, in which TDS and conductivity were minimized. The removal rate of turbidity and phosphate was maximized at the optimal mixing intensity of rapid and slow mixing stages. After the rapid mixing stage of coagulation process, small particles ($3-5{\mu}m$) were abruptly generated, and higher mixing intensity made more numbers of flocs. With the progress of slow mixing stage, the number of small particles were decreased with the simultaneous increase of intermediate particles ($7-21{\mu}m$). The number of large particles (>$23{\mu}m$) were maximized at the lowest rapid mixing intensity of $95.1sec^{-1}$, whereas small particles (<$5{\mu}m$) were maximized at the highest rapid mixing intensity of $760.7sec^{-1}$.

The design of proper agitation system is requisite in biological waste treatment and energy generation plant, which is affected by viscosity, impeller types, and power consumption. In the present work, hydrogen fermentation of food waste was conducted at various operational pHs (4.5~6.5) and substrate concentrations (10~50 g Carbo. COD/L), and the viscosity of fermented broth was analyzed. The $H_2$ yield significantly varied from 0.51 to $1.77mol\;H_2/mol\;hexose_{added}$ depending on the pH value, where the highest performance was achieved at pH 5.5. The viscosity gradually dropped with shear rate increase, indicating a shear thinning property. With the disintegration of carbohydrate, the viscosity dropped after fermentation, but it did not change depending on the operational pH. At the same pH level, the $H_2$ yield was not affected much, ranging $1.40{\sim}1.86mol\;H_2/mol\;hexose_{added}$ at 10~50 g Carbo. COD/L. The zero viscosity and infinite viscosity of fermented broth increased with substrate concentrations, from 10.4 to $346.2mPa{\cdot}s$, and from 1.7 to $5.3mPa{\cdot}s$, respectively. There was little difference in the viscosity value of fermented broth at 10 and 20 g Carbo. COD/L. As a result of designing the agitation intensity based on the experimental results, it is expected that the agitation intensity can be reduced during hydrogen fermentation. The initial and final agitation intensity of 30 g Carbo. COD/L in hydrogen fermentation were 26.0 and 10.0 rpm, respectively. As fermentation went on, the viscosity gradually decreased, indicating that the power consumption for agitation of food waste can be reduced.
