The purpose of this study was to confirm the applicability of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) in the advanced sewage treatment process. Simulated influent was used in the operation of a laboratory scale reactor. The operation time of one cycle was 4 h and the reactor was operated for six cycles per day. The volume exchange ratio was 50%. The influent was injected in divisions of 25% to increase the removal efficiency of nitrogen in every cycle. As a result, the removal efficiencies of $COD_{Cr}$ and TN in this reactor were 98.2% and 76.7% respectively. During the operation period, the AGS/MLVSS concentration ratio increased from 70.0% to 86.7%, and the average $SVI_{30}$ was 67 mL/g. The SNR and SDNR were 0.073-0.161 kg $NH_4{^+}$-N/kg MLVSS/day and 0.071-0.196 kg $NO_3{^-}$-N/kg MLVSS/day respectively. These values were higher or similar to those reported in other studies. The operation time of the process using AGS is shorter than that of the conventional activated sludge process. Hence, this process can replace the activated sludge process.

An improvement of nitrogen and phosphorus removal in SBR using the elutriated acids from the food waste as an external carbon source was investigated in this study. The food waste was elutriated at $35^{\circ}C$ and pH 9 to produce the external carbon source. The elutriate of food waste were continuously collected. The elutriated liquid contained VFAs of 39,180 mg/L representing soluble COD of 44,700 mg/L. The SBR showed poor denitrification and EBPR (enhanced biological phosphorus removal) without elutriated VFAs addition. An average denitrification rate was 0.4 mg NOx-N/g MLVSS/day. In turn, EBPR was also inhibited by this poor denitrification because the remaining nitrate in anaerobic phase resulting a poor denitrification. On the other hand, the denitrification in anoxic phase significantly improved with an elutriated VFAs addition. Nitrate removal was 82% while the denitrification rate was 2.9 mg NOx-N/g MLVSS/day with 18.4 mL/cycle of elutriated VFAs. With the enhanced denitrification, nitrate concentration in anaerobic phase could effectively be controlled to a very low level. The elimination of nitrate inhibition in anaerobic phase resulted enhancement of EBPR. The specific phosphate release rate was $1.9mg\;PO_4^{3-}-P/g\; MLVSS/day$ with less than 0.5 mg/L of $PO_4^{3-}-P$ concentration.

본 연구는 역삼투공정에서 발생하는 농축수의 생물학적 처리에 관한 것으로, SBR공정의 처리성능 및 부하변동과 온도변화에 따른 효율을 평가하였다. SBR공정의 cycle당 HRT가 각각 8시간과 12시간으로 2가지 형태로 공정운전이 이루어졌으며, RO농축수의 낮은 C/N비 때문에 효과적인 탈질을 위해 메탄올을 주입하였다. 유량과 온도의 변화에도 SBR공정의 질소제거 효율은 비교적 안정적인 것으로 나타났다. SBR공정의 최적 time cycle은 2 cycle/day이지만, 3 cycle/day 조건에서도 방류수 TN 농도가 수질기준 이하로 나타났다. 평가결과 RO 농축수 처리를 위한 SBR공정의 적용은 효과적이었으며, 폐수처리장 설계에 활용이 가능할 것이다. SNR과 SDNR은 각각 $0.043{\sim}0.066kg\;NH_3-N/kg\;MLVSS{\cdot}day$와 $0.096{\sim}0.287kg\;NH_3^--N/kg\;MLVSS{\cdot}day$로 나타났다. 도출된 동역학적인자는 RO농축수 처리에서 포기조와 무산소조 설계에 적용이 가능할 것이다.

본 연구에서 탈질 효율 비교를 위해 당밀과 메탄올을 외부 탄소원으로 사용하였다. 세부 실험조건은 C/N ratio 조건에 따라 구분하였다. 회분식 실험 결과, 당밀과 메탄올 모두 C/N ratio가 증가할수록 탈질 효율은 증가하였다. 당밀의 최적 C/N ratio는 잔류 COD 농도와 탈질 효율을 고려할 때 4:1로 나타났으며, 이때 탈질 효율은 91.4%이다. 동역학적 인자로 SDNR을 도출한 결과, C/N ratio가 증가할수록 당밀과 메탄올은 유사한 SDNR 값을 보였으며, C/N ratio 4:1 조건에서 0.0292 g $NO_3{^-}-N$ removal/g MLVSS/day (molasse), 0.0299 g $NO_3{^-}-N$ removal/g MLVSS/day (mehtanol)로 나타났다. 미생물 군집 분석을 통해 당밀에 적응된 슬러지에는 Pseudomonas sp.와 Bergeylla sp. 박테리아가 우점화 된 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 미생물 군집의 다양성보다는 일부 박테리아에 대한 집중성이 더 높게 나타났다. 이에 따라 당밀은 탈질에 특화된 미생물을 집중적으로 성장시키며, 탈질 성능을 높일 수 있는 대체 외부탄소원으로 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of starvation periods with aerobic or non-aerobic conditions on the organic removal efficiencies and physical characteristics of activated sludge for treating saline and non-saline wastewater. During the experiment, MLSS, MLVSS, sludge volume index (SVI), floc size and fractal dimension, $COD_{Mn}$ removal efficiencies were monitored. The reductions of MLSS, MLVSS and SVI with maintaining the sludge under a non-aerobic condition during starvation periods were smaller than those under a aerobic condition. Floc size, fractal dimension and $COD_{Mn}$ removal efficiencies were less decreased under non-aerobic condition than under aerobic condition. And SVI were strongly correlated with floc size and fractal dimension. Consequently, the result showed that maintaining the activated sludge under non-aerobic starvation conditions was better strategy than that under aerobic starvation conditions as it adapted and resisted to starvation.

This research is to investigate the reaction kinetics by air-lift bioreactor using calcium hydroxide, the neutralization agent and immobilization media, for removing ethylene glycol remained after chemical pretreatment. It was found that the optimum hydraulic retention time was obtained as 24.2hours at the optimum F/M ratio of 1.32kg-$TCOD_{Mn}$/day.kg-MLVSS, and then, infiuent $TCOD_{Mn}$ and MLVSS concentration were 3,290mg/l and 2,472mg/l, respectively. During the steady state, the kinetics constants such as maximum specific substrate removal rate, half saturation velocity coefficient, yield coefficient and endogenous respiration coefficient were estimated in the base of $TCOD_{Mn}$ as substrate concentration. And they were 1.47day$^{-1}$, 3.95mg/l, 0.391 and 0.092day$^{-1}$, respectively. And also, the oxgen use coefficients for cell synthesis, a', and energy of maintenance, b', were obtained as 0.4kg-O$_{2}$/kg-$TCOD_{Mn}$ and 0.056day$^{-1}$, at the steady state by the experimental result of oxygen uptake rate.

Nutrient removal from synthetic wastewater was investigated using a MLE (Modified-Ludzack Ettinger) type MBBR (Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor), with different phenol ($C_6H_5OH$) concentrations, in order to determine the inhibition effects of phenol on biological nutrient removal and the biodegradation of phenolic wastewater. The wastewater was prepared by mixing a solution of molasses with known amounts of phenol and nutrients. The experiments were conducted in a lab-scale MLE type MBBR, operated with four different phenol concentrations (0, 67, 100 and 168mg/L) in the synthetic feed. Throughout the experiments, the ratio of the phenolic COD concentration to the total COD was varied from 0 to 1. Throughout batch test, the SNR (Specific Nitrification Rate) and SDNR (Specific Denitrification Rate) were significantly influenced by changes of the phenol concentration. Phenol was inhibitory to the nitrification/denitrification process, and showed greater inhibition with higher initial phenol concentrations. The SNR observed with 0, 67, 100 and 168mg phenol/L were very different like 10.12, 6.95, 1.51 and $0.35mg\;NH_{3^-}N/gMLVSS$ hr, respectively. Similarly, the SDNR observed at 0, 67, 100 and 168mg phenol/L were different like 0.322, 0.143, 0.049and 0.006mgN/gMLVSS day, respectively.

In this study, the SBR and MLE process was performed for a removal of the RO retentate and the nitrogen removal efficiency was evaluated. The inflow-rate of two processes was set a 10 L/day. The SBR process was operated a two cycle as HRT per one cycle was 12hr and the HRT of the anoxic and aerobic tank was respectively 7.5 hr and 16.5 hr. The methanol was injected for an effective denitrificaion owing to a low C/N ratio of the RO retentate. The two processes were effectively performed for nitrogen removal, but the average removal efficiency of the SBR process was about 94.93% better performance than the MLE process. Therefore, the SBR process demonstrated a good performance more than the MLE process for nitrogen removal of the RO retentate. The kinetic of SNR and SDNR was observed respectively 0.051 kg $NH_{3}-N/kg\;MLVSS{\cdot}dayg$ and 0.287 kg ${NO_3}^--N/kg\;MLVSS{\cdot}day$, which will be useful to design for the wastewater treatment system with a RO retentate.

This study carried out batch and continuous experiments using calcium hydroxide as neutralization agent and immobilization media for removing the ethylene glycol in the pretreated polyester weight loss wastewater. The $TCOD_{Mn}$ concentration in the treated wastewater using culture of iramobilization and suspension for the synthetic wastewater were found as 650mg/l and 1,250mg/l after 48hours, respectively. SVI(Sludge Volume Index) and $TCOD_{Mn}$ concentration were 74 and 73mg/l at optimum F/M ratio, 1.32kg-TCO $D_{Mn}$ /day. kg-MLVSS. The $TCOD_{Mn}$ concentration and removal efficiency were 213mg/l and 93.5% by continuous experiments in the air-lift bioreactor, respectively. The $TCOD_{Mn}$ concentration was 82mg/l, and also the MLVSS concentration was 2,550mg/l, when the volumetric loading rate was 3.04kg-$TCOD_{Mn}/m^{2}$ day for real polyester weight loss wastewater.
