원수의 탁질 중에서 입경이 $10^{-1}$mm이상인 것은 보통침전으로 제거가 가능하지만, 입경이��$10^{-3}mm$이하가 되면 일반적으로 콜로이드입자라고 총칭하며 그대로의 상태로서는 거의 침강되지 않을 뿐만 아니라 급속여과기구에서도 포착되지 않는다. 따라서 급속여과 방식에서는 이와 같은 탁질을 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 전처리로서 응집조작으로 인한 콜로이드상의 탁질을 플록화하여 약품침전이나 급속여과에서 포착되도록 탁질의 성상을 변화시키는 조작이 반드시 필요하다. 또한 양호한 플록을 효과적으로 형성시키는 약품혼화와 플록형성 등을 강구해야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 현재 국내에서 운영하고 있는 정수처리시스템의 일부인 혼화지내에 혼화지점의 단면적을 축소시켜 약품혼화효과를 극대화하고 혼화기의 소요동력을 감소시켜 혼화효과를 개선하며 혼화지내 혼화기 운용의 비용 절감 효과를 증가시키기 위한 저에너지형 CF혼화장치를 개발하는데 연구 목적이 있다. 연구결과 CF혼화장치의 설치시 약품 투입 위치에 따라 $2{\sim}6%$정도의 탁도제거율의 상승과 슬러지 높이의 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났으며 이 실험 결과 약품투입장소에서 혼화지의 Compact화로 인해 급속 혼화를 이룰 경우 더 많은 플록화로 인해 탁도 제거율이 높아지는 것을 알 수 있다.

The experiment in this study was conducted as a part of an effort to evaluate filter performance with pilot-filters consisting of one mono-media and two dual-media columns. Particle distribution analysis using a particle counter is more sensitive and better than turbidity analysis in observing particle detachments and a breakthrough. In sand media filters having 1.5 m of available head, caution is needed in the head loss of the late stages of filtration, and for dual-media filters, appropriate media configuration and effluent Quality monitoring should be used for preventing the final breakthrough. Also the time of particle breakthrough in the dual media filter can be deferred by increasing bed depth, and it is necessary to use a filtration aid prior to filtration to prevent breakthrough of these intermediate sized particles in high filtration rate.

The removal of protozoa in the coagulation process was evaluated under the different pH and turbidity using the jar test after the addition of polyaluminium chloride (PAC) as a coagulant. Two well-known protozoa of Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia were tested at the same time with turbidity, the critical water quality parameter of the water treatment process. Both protozoa were removed about 1log (and up to 2log) at the optimum injection of PAC. The source water turbidity and pH affected the removal of protozoa and turbidity. At neutral and alkaline pH, 1.3-1.7log removal of protozoa for low turbid water with 5NTU, and 1.6-2.3log removal for high turbid water with 30NTU were achieved. However, at acidic pH, maximum 0.8-1.0log and 1.1-1.2log were removed for low and high turbid water, respectively, at the optimum PAC injection of 15mg/L. The relation of protozoa and turbidity removals were expressed as the 1st order equation (significantly positive relation) in the most of the tested conditions. In addition, the relation of protozoan removals with residual turbidity were also expressed the 1st order equation (significantly negative relation), although the significance of the equations were reduced at acidic pH. Therefore, residual turbidity could be a good index of efficient protozoan removal in the coagulation process, probably except at the low pH condition.

The effective removal of turbid-inducing particulates and algae-inducing phosphorous was systematically investigated by the variation of physico-chemical parameters such as pH, alkalinity, and coagulant types. Al(III)-based and Fe(III)-based coagulants exhibited high removal efficiency of turbidity and phosphorous at optimal pH ranges of 7~9, in which zeta potential nearly approached to zero. The removal rate of turbidity rapidly increased with the increase of coagulant dosages, whereas the removal rate of phosphorous gradually increased due to an equivalent reaction of phosphorous with metallic ions. The generation of flocs during coagulation was visualized by high speed camera (Motion Scope 2000, Redlake Co.), and the images of singular flocs were captured by optical microscope. The flocs generated by Fe(III)-based coagulant was more compact than those induced by Al(III)-based coagulant, and the settlabiltiy of Fe(III)-induced flocs was superior to that of Al(III)-induced flocs.

In this study, water purification system without coagulant was consisted of F/A and membrane to produce purified water which only uses physical treatment without coagulant. Because the use of coagulant has a possibility remaining of hazardous aluminum with our health. Especially, the Filtralite was reviewed the possibility to remove turbidity and organic material. It was found that the turbidity removal rate of Filtralite was 83~84%. It show that Filtralite has similar efficiency to sand-filter. But Filtralite has higher 50% removal rate of organic material than sand-filter due to well-developed pore on the surface of it. So, Filtralite could be used to substitute the sand-filter for the F/A process due to higher removal rate. And also coupled with activated carbon in F/A process, TMP was increased by TOC value. To prevent increasing TMP, media that has outstanding organic adsorption ability should be used.

Sedimentation is treated as the most important unit process in waterworks, and plays great role on turbidity removal efficiency. Rectangle sedimentation basin is the most widely accepted sedimentation process. But it has some problems with short-circuit flow and density flow caused by temperature and influent turbidity variation. To solve these problems, installation of rectification wall was suggested, but not generally fully accepted in field. Because hole of rectification wall cause jet flow. In this research, use of moving baffle was investigated. Moving baffle was designed to induce uniform velocity at every section of water flow. The baffle walls was made from soft fiber materials. The baffle walls with flow of sedimentation basin moves at same speed. It is like that it controls density flow and short-circuit flow and induce uniform velocity at every section of water flow in sedimentation basin. When moving baffle was operated retention time of sedimentation basin was extended to 1 hours. When it talked again and the effluent time of highest concentration of the chlorine ion from 100 minutes was extended to 160 minutes. Turbidity removal efficiency was tested with different operation modes(continuous and batch) with influent turbidity and retention time. It was revealed that turbidity removal efficiency carl be improved up to 36%(continuous mode) and 58%(batch mode) respectively. Consequently if moving baffle introduces in Rectangle sedimentation basin, it forecasts that the turbidity improvement above 30% will be possible.
