An eco-friendly water purifier was developed using natural minerals, plants, and sludge from water purification plants. A wastewater complex treatment system using this water purification agent was developed. The wastewater complex treatment system goes through the process of inflow of contaminated water, input of water purification agent, operation of a pressurized flotation device, sludge flotation, sludge collection and treatment water discharge. This device was applied to the removal of green algae in livestock desorption liquid, broiler washing water, factory wastewater, sewage treatment plant and pond to obtain excellent removal rate. The use of natural water purification agents for organic waste purification has not been investigated.

The sewage sludges and livestock manures, respectively, were composted with sawdust used for control moisture in the static piles system composter. The variations of temperature, pH, moisture, C/N ratio, inorganic content, forms of organic materials and nitrogen, and contents of heavy metals were investigated. The results were summarized as follows ; The temperature for composting the sewage sludges reached the highest temperature of 52$^{\circ}C$, after 3 days and lasted for 7 days, and then went down 3$0^{\circ}C$ after 52 days. In the case of composting livestock manures, the temperature reached to 63$^{\circ}C$ after 10 days, that lasted for 10 days, and then went down gradually. After upsetting the sewage sludges and livestock manures for composting were decreased to 30% and 36%, respectively. The contents of inorganic matters and heavy metals were changed by the characteristics of raw materials but increased gradually during composting process. The total contents of organic materials in the sewage sludges and livestock manures for composting were decreased to 7% and 9%, respectively. The contents of ether extracts, resins, hemicellulose and cellulose were decreased but those of water soluble polysaccharides and lignins were not changed. The total contents of nitrogen in sewage sludges and livestock manures were decreased to 43% and 34%, respectively.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in nitrogen and soluble reactive phosphorus(SRP) contents from hanwoo manure using probiotics to feed and manure additives during 5 weeks. A total of 45 hanwoo(24 months old) with averaging $580{\pm}20$ kg in weight were randomly assigned to 3 dietary treatments with 3 replicates per treatment(5 hanwoo per pen, $5{\times}8m$). The treatment were supplemented, control, T1(10 kg roughage + 2 kg concentrate(2% probiotics as-fed basis)), and T2(10 kg roughage + 2 kg concentrate(2% probiotics as-fed basis) + 7 kg probiotics on the surface of hanwoo manure (top-dressing)). During the experimental period, there were statistically significant differences(P<0.05) in pH values at 3 and 5 weeks; TN contents at 5 weeks; and SRP contents at 5 weeks in all treatments. Adding probiotics to feed or feed and manure increased manure pH in comparison with controls. As time increased, changes in TN contents decreased in the order: T2 > Control > T1. Especially, the reduction in SRP contents in all treatments at 5 weeks was in following order: T1 > T2 > Control. This result suggests that it is possible to make efficient use of probiotics as feed and manure additives for reducing environmental pollution or to provide fundamental information on livestock managements to producers.

새만금지구 간척사업은 지난 1990년대 초반 이래로 국책사업으로 수행되어 왔다. 그러나, 하류에 조성될 새만금호의 수질에 대한 일반의 우려가 높아 배수갑문을 개방하여 해수 유통을 허용하고 있고, 원래 목적인 담수호 조성이 지체되고 있다. 농업비점오염부하가 담수호의 주요 오염원의 하나로 인식되고 있고, 담수호 수질 개선을 위해서는 농업비점 저감대책이 강구되어야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 저염도 새만금 간척지 밭을 대상으로 비종에 따른 비점오염 배출부하량을 모니터링하고 이를 정량적 평가를 하는 데 있다. 계화방조제 전면의 간석지에 간척농지 시험포장을 조성하였다. 비종으로 축분퇴비와 화학비료를 적용하고, 무시비 대조구와 비교하여 동계 청보리, 하계에 콩과 수수 작물 재배 시험을 수행하였다. 시험포장의 수문, 수질, 토양, 지하수 모니터링을 통하여 간척지 밭으로부터 오염물질 배출기작을 규명하고 비점부하를 정량적으로 산정하였다. 본 연구 결과는 염도가 높은 간척농지에서 밭작물 재배에 따른 비점부하 배출기작에 대한 이해를 증진하고, 나아가 농업비점오염 저감을 위한 영농개선 기법 개발에 중요한 기초자료를 제공할 것으로 판단된다.

This is a fundamental study to develop a bio-gas utilization technology using livestock manure. Especially, this study was carried out to develop an engine using bio-gas. A bio-gas engine was designed and manufactured by modification of a diesel engine of 3 cylinders powering 13.31 kW/2800 rpm, changing the fuel supplying system fit for bio-gas. The result showed that, when the Air/Fuel ratio was controlled with fixed spark timing, the power of biogas-fueled engine is about $10.6{\~}14.6\%$ lower then that of LNG-fueled engine because of low volumetric efficiency. The engine output and torque was $11.85{\~}13.3$ kW, $39.5{\~}40.8\;N{\cdot}m$, respectively at the engine speed of 2600 rpm. Bio-gas consumption rate was 260.20 g/kW/hr, 315.20 g/kW/hr in engine speed or 1000 rpm, 2800 rpm, respectively.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of different plant growth media on the growth of tomato(Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) seedlings during growth stages. The media were commercial plant growth medium 100％, earthworm cast (that was produced by vermicomposting of food waste and cattle manure) 100％, earthworm cast 50％ ＋ vermiculite 50％, earthworm cast 50％ ＋ perlite 50％, earthworm cast 40％ ＋ vermiculite 30％ + perlite 30％. Plant length(mm), number of leaves, leaf area($\textrm{cm}^2$), stem diameter(mm), plant dry mater were greatest till the 2nd week growth stages in the commercial plant growth medium plots, but those were higher in the earthworm cast than those in the other plant growth media at the later stages of this study(P<0.05). And relative growth rate of biological yield, relative growth rate of shoot and relative growth rate of root were highest in the earthworm cast till the 4th week growth stage. Therefore it can be implied that there is the possibility of potential utilization of earthworm cast, which was produced by vermicomposting of food waste and cattle manure, as vegetable growth medium.

Among the livestock, chickens are raised because of the merit ingested protein in low-priced cost of production and are primary livestock increased the consumption of meat. The factors of influencing condition, odor is the most important factor. Odor substances are ammonia, amines, hydrogen sulfide and mercaptan which come from night soil. Livestock are prevented from rearing by means of these odor substances. Though the henhouse is heated using hot air type heater in the winter season, it is ventilated for the control of odor because of the increase of odor concentration. In the present work, composite catalytic system combined the existing facilities(hot air type heater) with catalytic system was developed, it could controled odor and hazardous gas using the oxidation/reduction reaction without extra operating cost. Moreover, the purpose of this work is to develop the catalysts which are cost competitive and can maximize energy efficiency. The catalysts are noble metal(Pt-Rh) and composite transition metal(Mn) type.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of applying alum (aluminum sulfate) and aluminum chloride on pH and pathogen populations of Hanwoo manure. A total of 36 steers (8 months old and averaging 300 kg in weight) were used in this trial and allotted to 9 pens (3 replication pens per group with 4 steers per experimental unit, $5{\times}8$ m). Chemical additives were applied as a top dressing with garden rake to a depth of 1 cm of manure with wood shavings in each treatment. The chemical amendments were control (without chemical amendments), 50 g of alum and 50 g of aluminum chloride/kg of Hanwoo manure. The experiment was carried out for 4 weeks. Adding alum and aluminum chloride to Hanwoo manure reduced (P < 0.05) pH compared to untreated controls during the 4-wk period. Both levels of the alum and aluminum chloride treatments tested decreased (P < 0.05) Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica populations in Hanwoo manure at 2 and 4 weeks. It appears that the reduction in pathogen populations was primarily associated with the lower manure pH. If more strict environmental regulations are put into effect regarding pathogen populations from Hanwoo facilities, treating Hanwoo manure with alum and aluminum chloride may be a good management practice.

The characteristics of the bio-oil produced by the pyrolysis process with pig feces was investigated in this paper. The continuous auger-type reactor produced bio-oil was maintained at the temperature range of 400 to $600^{\circ}C$, which was higher than a typical that in a conventional pyrolysis system. The pig feces was used as the feedstock. The bio-oil and its compositions were characterized by water analysis, heating values, elemental analysis, bio-oil compounds, by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS), and functional group by $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy. It was found that the maximum bio-oil yields of 21% w.t. was achieved at $550^{\circ}C$. This result suggested that this auger reactor might be a potential technology for livestock waste treatment to produce bio-oil because it is able to be improved to reach higher efficiency of bio-oil production in further study. The pyrolysis system reported herein had low heat transfer into the feedstock in the auger reactor so that it needs improve the heat conduction rate of the system in further study.
