This study aims at developing the practical technology in the treatment of box-mill wastewater using the aerobic co-metabolism principle. The conventional activated sludge method exhibited the removal efficiency of $TBOD_5$ and $TCOD_{Mn}$ as 30~50% and 40~50%, respectively. Color was rather increased by 30~130% because the conventional treatment under the aerobic condition did not induce the conversion of molecular structure of dyeing agents. Meanwhile, when the aerobic co-metabolism principle was applied to the same wastewater, the removal efficiency of $TBOD_5$ and $TCOD_{Mn}$ were obtained as 92~97% and 90~94%, respectively. In particular, color was significantly reduced down to 65~85%. The enhancement of treatment efficiency was ascribed to occur not only that the non-degradables were converted to the second substrates, but also that the enzyme activity was increased as MLVSS was kept 3000mg/l or more with the first substrates injected.

The research aims to provide the basic data for practical applications by correlating the bio-kinetic coefficients with the load of recalcitrant organic matter in box-mill wastewater. The activated sludge process was employed to a Wastewater disposal plant in an industrial setting, increase of consequently leading to the organic load. The parameter values derived by Monod-kinetic analysis were as follows:specific substrate removal rate $K_{max}=0.17day^{-1}$, half saturation constants $K_s=60.37mg/l$, decay coefficient $K_d=0.142day^{-1}$, microbial yield coefficient y = 0.388mg/mg, and max specific growth rate ${\mu}_{max}=0.006day^{-1}$. In view of biodegradability, the $TCOD_{Mn}/TBOD_5$ ratios of inflow and outflow were 1.07 and 1.41, and the $SCOD_{Mn}/SBOD_5$ ratios of inflow and outflow were 1.10 and 1.50, respectively. The higher $TCOD_{Mn}/TBOD_5$ ratio of outflow indicated that metabolites of a microorganism have accumulated in the cells.

Removal of COD and TSS from rice mill wastewater was investigated using continuous electrocoagulation method (CEC). The electrical energy consumption (EEC) of the process was also examined in order to evaluate the economic viability. The Box-Behnken statistical experiment design (BBD) and response surface methodology (RSM) were used to investigate the effects of major operating variables. Initial pH, current density, electrode distance and flow rate were selected as independent variables in BBD while COD removal, TSS removal and EEC were considered as the response functions. The predicted values of responses obtained using the response function was in good agreement with the experimental data. Optimum operating conditions were found to be pH of 7, current density of 15 mA $cm^{-2}$, electrode distance of 5 cm and flow rate of 70 ml/min. Under these conditions, greater than 89% removal of COD and TSS were obtained with EEC value of 7 KWh.

판지공장 인쇄폐수에 무산소 활성오니공정을 적용한 결과 $TCOD_{Mn}=90{\sim}94%$, $Color=58{\sim}81%$의 높은 제거효율을 얻었다. 산업현장 판지공장 폐수에 대한 무산소 활성오니공정의 설계분석을 위하여 Monod식에 의한 동력학적계수를 추정한 결과 $K_{max}$(최대 기질제거속도)=0.52 $day^{-1}$, $K_s$(반포화 기질농도)=314 mg/L, $K_d$(내생호흡계수)=0.274 $day^{-1}$, y(미생물의 합성계수)=0.908 mg/mg, ${\mu}_{max}$(최대 비생장속도)=0.472 $day^{-1}$로 산출되었다. 설계분석을 위한 부하인자의 값은 F/M비=$0.043{\sim}0.07$ kg-$TCOD_{Mn}$/kg-SS-day, BOD 용적부하=$0.18{\sim}0.3$ kg-$TCOD_{Mn}/m^3-day$, ${\theta}_x$(미생물 체류시간)=$=6.8{\sim}26.4$ day로 현장 검증되었다. 이러한 부하인자의 값을 미생물의 성장 동력학과 연계시켜 볼 때 F/M비는 ${\theta}_x$에 반비례하고, 단위측면에서 F/M비는 ${\mu}_{max}$와 같아야 하나 F/M비와 ${\mu}_{max}$는 상당한 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 미생물의 성장 동력학을 이용한 무산소 활성오니공정을 설계하고자 할 때에는 충분한 안전율이 요구되는 것으로 사료되었다.
