This study performed verification experiment for the removal of total nitrogen in sewage from a Town M village sewage treatment plant using YPNR processes. The total nitrogen discharged after the denitrification process was maintained at a level of 8-15 mg/L, which results in the total nitrogen removal efficiency above 68% on average. The total nitrogen components in discharged water consisted of 16% of ammonia nitrogen, 6% of nitrite nitrogen, and 77% of nitrate nitrogen, which reaches a 95% nitrification efficiency. Hence, the YPNR advanced treatment process used in this study can be successfully applied to sewage treatment.

본 연구는 폐수처리공정에서 경량기포콘크리트를 이용하여 폐수 중에 존재하는 음이온계면 활성제와 총인 그리고 총질소성분을 제거하기 위하여 실시되었다. 경량기포콘크리트는 폐수 처리공정에서 반응기에 충진하여 사용하였으며, 이때 사용된 폐수는 인공폐수(음이온계면활성제 : 10-31 mg/L, 총인 : 66-73 mg/L 그리고 총질소 : 56-163 mg/L)를 사용하였다. 실험결과 경량기포콘크리트를 사용하여 폐수를 처리한 결과 음이온계면활성제의 85-95 %, 총인성분의 92 %, 그리고 총질소 성분의 90 % 정도가 제거되었다.

BOD 제거효율은 우기에는 평균 83%, 그 외의 기간은 87%로 나타나 유입수의 수질과 관계없이 처리되는 것으로 나타났다. 총질소 처리율은 운전초기와 유입수의 총질소농도가 낮을 때 대략 30% 정도의 제거율을 나타내었으며 그 이외는 10%의 제거율을, 봄이되면서 제거율이 20%대로 증가하였다. 유입수중의 평균 총인농도는 3.5mg/L였으며, 유출수의 평균 농도는 2.5mg/L로 나타나 평균 28.6%의 제거율을 보였다.

폐수의 부하량 감소를 위하여 전처리단계에서 전기응집장치를 이용한 총인 및 총질소, 생물화학적산소요구량과 화학적 산소요구량 등을 측정하고자 실험을 하였다. 실험결과 철 전극에서는 총인제거효율이 가장 높았으며, 총질소 제거 효율은 두 회사 폐수 모두 낮았다. Sus 및 Ti전극에서는 제거효율이 미미하였다. 따라서 부하량 감소를 위한 폐수의 전처리시 철전극사용시 가장효율이 좋으며, 부하량 감소는 90%이상임을 알 수 있었다.

In the operation of submerged membrane-coupled sequencing batch reactor, the effect of filling step on the removal efficiency and filtration performance were investigated. Two sets of operation modes, the filling step located in the beginning of aerobic step (Mode-1) and the beginning of anoxic step (Mode-2), during 89 days were conducted. There was no wide difference in the COD removal and filtration performance between two sets of operation modes. But in the removal efficiency of nutrients (total nitrogen and total phosphorous), Mode-2 was more effective than Mode-1. In the case of Mode-2, average removal efficiencies of COD, total nitrogen, and total phosphorous were 99.1, 73.3, and 77.3%, respectively.

The present study is to explore the possibility of utilizing loess and fly ash as well as activated carbon for the adsorptive removal of T-N and T-P in water. Here, we investigated adsorption efficiency and Freundlich constants k and 1/n of each adsorbent. It was found that fly ash has not adsorptive capability for both T-N and T-P in water. Adsorption of T-N from water by loess has not occurred, but showed that adsorption efficiency for T-P reached approximately 57.5% at equilibrium time of 24 hr and room temperature. Activated carbon was shown to be an effective adsorbent for adsorption of T-N from water. Freundlich constant 1/n value of activated carbon represented that adsorptive capability of activated carbon is almost equivalent to loess.

The aim of this study is to determine the removal efficiency of total nitrogen and phosphorus from treated swine wastewater by Phragmites australis and Miscanthus sacchariflorus var Geode Uksae-1, and to determine its biomass total energy value and biomethane potential. Plants were grown with a bedding mixture either soil and sand or soil, sand, and bioceramic. Treeated swine wastewater with Total nitrogen (TN) and Total phosphorus (TP) of 222.78 mg/L and 66.11 mg/L, respectively, was utilized. The TN and TP removal is higher in the bio-ceramic-soil-sand bedding media treatment. The highest TN removal of 96.14% was performed by Miscanthus sacchariflorus var Geode Uksae-1, but the elemental analysis shows that Phragmites australis contains more nitrogen than Miscanthus sacchariflorus var Geode Uksae-1, indicating higher nitrogen uptake. The highest TP removal of 98.12% was performed by Phragmites australis. The cellulose content of the plant grown with the bioceramic-soil-sand bedding was approximately 3-6% higher than that of the plant grown in the soil-sand bedding. Different growing substrates may have an effect on the fiber content of plants. The biomethane potential of the produced biomass of the plants was between 57.01 and $99.25L-CH_4/kg$ VS. The lignin content is believed to inhibit the breakdown of plant biomass, resulting in the lowest methane production in the Phragmites australis grown in the soil-sand bedding media.

In this study, the wastewater treatment was conducted to evaluate the removal efficiency of total nitrogen from synthetic wastewater in the F-STEP PROCESS $(anaerobic{\rightarrow}\;oxic\;{\rightarrow}\;anoxic)$ with loess ball as support metrics. The average removal efficiencies of total nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen were $83.0\%\;and\;84.4\%$, respectively. The average nitrification efficiency at the oxic area was $60.9\%$ in the pH range of effluent water between 4.8 and 6.0. On the other hand, in the case of pH range of effluent water between 6.5 and 7.5, the denitrification efficiency at the anoxic area was $96.3\%$. The average concentration of COD was 12.8 ppm and the removal efficiency of COD in the F-STEP PROCESS were $96.3\%$. In the case of SS, the average concentration was $7.0\%$ at the effluent.

The anaerobic fluidized bed bioreactor (AFBR) treating synthetic wastewater to simulate domestic sewage was operated under GAC fluidization to provide high surface area for biofilm formation. Although the AFBR achieves excellent COD removal efficiency due to biological activities, concerns are still made with nutrient such as nitrogen remaining in the effluent produced by AFBR. In this study, forward osmosis membrane was applied to treat the effluent produced by AFBR to investigate removal efficiency of total nitrogen (TN) with respect to the draw solution (DS) such as NaCl and glucose. Permeability of FO membrane increased with increasing DS concentration. About 55% of TN removal efficiency was observed with the FO membrane using 1 M of NaCl of draw solution, but almost complete TN removal efficiency was achieved with 1 M of glucose of draw solution. During 24 h of filtration, there was no permeate flux decline with the FO membrane regardless of draw solution applied.

생물학적 슬러지를 대상으로 간헐포기 소화와 호기성 소화의 회분실험을 실시하였다. 생물학적 슬러지의 간헐포기 및 호기성 소화 초기단계에서 미생물의 감량은 주로 내생 호흡에 의해 이루어졌다. 이 단계에서 질소는 곧바로 용출되지 않고 슬러지내에 잔존함으로서 슬러지의 질소함량은 일시적으로 증가한다. 그러나 소화후반에서는 최초의 질소함량수준으로 다시 감소하였다. 34일간의 회분식 소화에서 호기성 소화의 총질소 제거효율은 0.1%로서 거의 제거가 안된 반면, 포기 비율 0.25, 05 및 0.75인 간헐포기 소화에서는 각각 42.7%, 42.5% 및 17.6%로 나타나 간헐포기 소화가 호기성 소화보다 질소 제거측면에서 우수하였다. VSS의 감소에 따라 슬러지내의 인도 수중으로 용출하였으나, 인 용출율은 VSS 감소율 보다 훨씬 낮았고 그 결과 소화슬러지의 인 함량은 지속적으로 증가하였다. 호기성 소화와 간헐포기 소화는 소화슬러지의 인 함량이 증가하는 공정이므로 반송수의 인 부하는 상대적으로 낮아지게 되고 이는 하수의 영양염류 제거측면에서 긍정적인 효과를 미칠 것으로 기대된다.
