Starvation 동안 슬러지를 폭기시킨 경우 floc의 크기감소가 더 크게 일어났다. SBR의 재운전으로 회복된 floc의 크기는 슬러지를 폭기시키지 않은 경우 starvation 이전과 비교하여 더 커졌으며, 슬라지를 폭기시킨 경우 starvation 이전보다 작아졌다. Starvation 동안 슬러지를 폭기하지 않은 경우 fractal dimension은 큰 폭으로 감소하지만, 폭기하였을 때는 감소폭이 매우 작았다. 이후 SBR의 재운전으로 인한 fractal dimension은 증가하였다. 슬러지의 침강성은 starvation 동안 폭기한 경우 폭기하지 않은 경우보다 SBR 재운전 직후 슬러지의 침강성이 더 불량하였으며, starvation 동안 폭기하지 않았을 때 슬러지 침강성의 회복현상이 나타났지만, 폭기를 수행한 경우 침강성의 회복이 느리게 일어났다. Starvation 동안 슬러지의 폭기 및 비폭기 수행결과 침강성은 fractal dimension보다 floc의 크기에 더 크게 좌우되는 것으로 나타났다.

The Intermittent Aeration MBR systems have the advantage of controlling reaction time by changing aeration period and are one of economic BNR systems since these processes do not require MLSS recirculation that demands capital and operation costs. In this study, two intermittent aeration MBR systems were studied by computer simulation: an intermittent aeration MBR system that had both 1hr/1hr and 4hr/4hr aeration/unaeration periods at intermittent reactor and NEW INTERMITTENT-process that was an energy saving process and certified as a new process by Korean government. Since DO concentration reached only at 0.23mg/L at intermittent reactor when it was aerated, the Intermittent aeration MBR system having 1hr/1hr aeration/unaeration period showed simultaneous nitrification/denitrification and had the highest nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiencies that were 57% and 55%, respectively. Since this study was based on the constant influent flow and characteristics, more studies are needed to define the operational characteristics of intermittent aeration MBR systems under dynamic influent conditions.

Leachate from landfill sites contains high organics, chloride and ammonium nitrogen in concentration which might be potentially major pollutants to surface and groundwater environment. Most of landfill leachate treatment plants in Korea consist of biological processes to remove BOD and nitrogen. However, the efficiencies of refractory organics removal, nitrification and denitrification have not met frequently the national effluent regulation of wastewater treatment facility, especially in winter season. Simultaneous removal of organics and nitrogen from leachate is strongly necessitated to meet the national regulation on effluents from leachate treatment facilities. The intermittently aerated biological activated carbon fluidized bed(IABACFB) process was applied to treat real landfill leachates containing refractory organics and high concentration of ammonium nitrogen. The IABACFB reactor consisted of a single bed in which BAC fluidizing and an aerating column. The fluidized bed is intermittently aerated through the blower located at the aerating column. Experiments were performed to evaluate the applicability of Intermittently Aerated BACFB for simultaneous removal of refractory organic carbon and ammonium nitrogen of leachate. Organics and ammonia nitrogen($NH{_4}{^+}-N$)are oxidized during the aerobic stage, and nitrite-nitrate nitrogen($NO{_x}{^-}-N$) are removed to nitrogen gas through denitrification reaction during anoxic state. The IABACFB reactor condition reached a steady state within 40 days since the reactors had been operated. The blowing mode of 60 min.-On/60 min.-OFF is more compatible to remove TOC and ($NH{_4}{^+}-N$) operated. The blowing mode of 60 min.-On/60 min.-OFF is more compatible to remove TOC and ($NH{_4}{^+}-N$) simultaneously than the mode of 30 min.-On/90 min.-OFF. The average removal efficiencies of TOC, the refractory organic carbon, and the average efficiencies of nitrification and denitrification were 90%, 75%, 80%, 95%, respectively.

In this study, we fabricated a 1.55um polarization-insensitive semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA) with rectangular buried heterostructure using a InGaAsP/InP double heterostructure wafer. Measured characteristics of the fabricated SOA are that 3dR bandwidth is 35nm and 3dB saturation output power is 4dBm. Maximum gain under the 150mA CW driving condition is 19.4dB. We measured the ASE(amplified spontanouse emission) Power spectrum or n and TM mode in the fabricated SOA using ASE measurement system and knew that distributions of the TE and TM mode about the maxinum region are nearly coincident. this shows the fabricated SOA is a polarization-insensitive.

반도체 광증폭기는 어븀첨가 광섬유증폭기게 비하여 높은 잡음지수, 낮은 포화출력파워, 높은 편광의존성, 주파수처핑 등의 성질을 갖기 때문에, 광신호를 증폭하기 위한 응용은 매우 제한적이다. 그러나 이득분포화 현상에 의하여 유도되는 비선형 굴절률 계수가 매우 크기 때문에, 관신호 처리를 위한 기능소자로서의 응용 가능성은 매우 높다. 본 논문에서는 시분할 역다중화기, 고속 파장변환기, 주파수 처핑 보상기 등 반도체 광증폭기의 비선형 굴절률을 이용한 여러 가지 응용분야를 소개하고 이러한 응용에 있어서 반도체 광증폭기의 장점과 한계를 논한다.

A generated problem in treated highly concentrated organic wastewater by activated sludge process is the limitation of biomass concentration and oxygen transfer capability in aeration tank. To overcome the limitation, the deep shaft activated sludge process which has high oxygen transfer capability was applied to the wastewater treatment process. This paper investigated the characteristics of liquid circulation, oxygen transfer and biological treatment of paper mill wastewater by the deep shaft activated sludge process. From the obtained results, it was found that the oxygen transfer capability in the deep shaft system was much greater than those in the conventional aeration systems and almost tantamount to the pure oxygen system. The deep shaft system could treat highly concentrated organic wastewater by higher biomass concentration and organic loading rate.

대수층 폭기법(aquifer air sparging)은 대수층에 가압공기를 주입하여 휘발성 유기오염물질을 제거하는 지반환경복원 기술의 하나이다. 본 연구는 전통적인 지하 대수층 폭기기술 시행에 있어서 특정층에 미리 수용액상 계면활성제를 수평방향으로 도입함으로써 오염물질이 실제로 존재하는 층에 선택적으로 폭기 되도록 하여 최소한의 공기량으로 제거 효율을 극대화 하는 기술을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서는 균일질 모래로 충진된 2차원 상자 모델을 사용하였으며, 표면장력 조절을 위하여 저농도(100mg/L) 음이온계 계면활성제(sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate) 수용액이 사용되었다. 실험은 계면활성제가 처방되지 않은 경우, 공기도입부 근처에 계면활성제 용액이 도입된 경우, 공기도입부와 토양표면의 중간부분에 계면활성제 용액이 도입된 경우의 세 가지 방법으로 실시되었다. 실험 결과, 계면활성제가 도입된 경우는 투입되지 않은 경우에 비하여 최고 5배에 해당하는 폭기영향권의 확대가 관찰되었으며 폭기영향권이 계면활성제가 도입된 수평층을 중심으로 형성되어 이 부분에 집중되어 존재하는 오염물질의 제거에 매우 유리할 수 있다는 점이다. 대수층 도입공기의 수평확산을 유도하는 기술로 본 연구는 기존의 대수층 폭기 복원기술의 효율을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

우리나라 주요 수자원인 댐 저수지는 여름철 성층현상으로 인해 많은 수질문제가 발생하여 산기식 수중폭기장치를 설치하고 있다. 그러나 산기식 수중폭기장치의 설계인자들은 대부분 lab-scale의 실험연구를 통해 검토되고 설계에 반영되고 있어 실제 댐 저수지에 적용하기 위해서는 현장적용성을 고려하여 개선될 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 실제 댐 저수지의 현장조건을 고려하여 CFD 모의실험을 통해 산기식 수중폭기장치의 설계인자인 무차원변수 DN (Destratification Number)과 탈성층 영향반경 및 효율을 검토하였다. 그 결과 현장조건에서의 DN값은 lab-scale 실험조건보다 더 넓은 범위를 가지며, 단위수심당 탈성층 영향반경은 DN값이 증가할수록 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 탈성층 효율은 DN값이 증가할수록 선형적으로 증가하다가 증가율이 감소하면서 일정해지는 것으로 분석되었다.

Lab-scale experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of surface tension reduction on the extension of the influence zone and the VOC removal efficiency of ground water sparging. A glass column packed with coarse sand was used for VOC removal test at two different surface tensions. A glass column without porous media was also used fer control purpose prior to sand-packed column test. A quasi-two-dimensional glass box model, packed with a sand, was used fer sparging zone tests at different water surface tensions. Surface tension of the aquoues solution used in this study was controlled using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). For the glass, sand column experiments, total amount of air filled in the media increased as surface tension decreased. Toluene (used as VOC in this study) removal rate increased slightly with decreased surface tension f3r both free water column and sand-packed column. Air sparging zone extended up to 500% as the surface tension decreased. Combining the results from two different experiments, VOC removal efficiency is expected to increase significantly with surface tension reduction.

Intermittent aerobic digestion experiments using a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) were carried out in this study. Aeration ratio was found to be an important operation factor for the reduction of solids and nitrogen. As the sludge digested, organic nitrogen was released from the solids and oxidized to nitrate nitrogen. Biological denitrification was also significant and the denitrification rate was limited by aeration ratio. Under the condition of 0.25-0.75 of aeration ratio, acclimation of ammonia nitrogen was not observed and pH were preserved near neutral in the intermittent aerobic digestion. As the aeration ratio increased, solids reduction was increased whereas dissolved nitrogen removal was decreased. Based on the experiments, 17-2% of VSS reduction and over 80% of dissolved nitrogen removal were practicable by intermittent aerobic digestion using a SBR when the MSRT were designed 8-32 days and aeration ratio was operated about 0.25-0.75.
