The advantage of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) is to reduce requirement of oxygen as well as tank volume. The fludized media was used in the oxic (aerobic) tank of Membrane-BNR to enhance the efficiency of SND. Nowadays, the interest of applying membrane to the wastewater treatment plant has been increased, which is proved by a lot of research published about the MBR. The Membrane-BNR, consisted of total 5 reactors might be called the compact process by using the fludized media and having short HRT of 6.5 hr. It could attain the further removal of not only the organics but also nutrients such as T-N and T-P. The mode A and B were identified with or without the step feed of influent. The mode A was classified with 3 modes according to the different DO concentration in the fludized media aerobic reactor, and the mode B with step feed was operated with the optimum DO condition. The step-feed was capable of improving TN removal efficiency under the domestic wastewater with the low ratio C/N. On the other hand, the efficiency of SND with the 1.0~1.5 mg/L DO in the oxic media tank was better than the one with below 1.0 mg/L, on which the nitrification did not happen enough, and with above 3.5 mg/L, on which the reduction of anoxic area in the tank happened. It means that the profitable nitrification should be performed prior to the denitrification step. The removal efficiency of nitrogen by SND was about 20% among of total denitrified nitrogen. And some organic carbon consumed could be reduced by the endogeneous denitrification.

시화호의 우점종 중의 하나인 세가시육질꼬리옆새우의 염분구배 (1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40‰)에 따른 생존율 및 튜브형성 개수 실험을 하였다. 그리고 수층 내 산소농도가 충분할 경우 황화합물 농도가 높은 퇴적물 속에서 대상 종의 생존율과 이들의 생물교란 활동이 퇴적물 내 산소농도와 황화합물의 수직구배에 미치는 영향을 실험하였다. 대상 종은 20~30‰ 염분 조건에서 생존율이 높았으며 튜브형성 개수 또한 많았다. 수층 내 산소 농도가 충분할 경우, 대상 종은 황화합물 퇴적물에서 높은 생존율을 나타내었다. M. uenoi의 생물교란 활동은 퇴적물 내로 산소를 확산시킴으로써 황화합물을 제거하였다. 산소 확산과 황화합물이 제거되는 깊이는 대상 종의 서식밀도가 높을수록 증가하였다. 시화호 퇴적물에는 황화합물의 농도가 높게 나타나며, 특히 여름철에는 밀도성층의 강화로 저층수에 빈산소층이 형성되어 저서동물이 서식하지 못하는 무생물대가 형성된다. 가을 무렵에는 성층의 약화로 저층수에도 산소가 충분히 공급되며 M. uenoi가 높은 밀도로 출현한다. M. uenoi의 생물교란 활동은 저서동물 군집이 재형성될 수 있는 서식지를 조성하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 판단되었다.

The Oxic-Settling-Anaerobic(OSA) process is a modified activated sludge processes for sludge reduction. It is evaluated that the sludge production in OSA process can decrease to 88% because of biomass decay and kinetic parameter($Y_H$ 0.237mgVSS/mgCOD, $b_H$ $0.195d^{-1}$) in anaerobic reactor, when compared with CAS process. However, it has problems caused by sludge reduction such as increase of nutrient loading. In case that the anoxic condition through the introduction of the intermittent aeration for the enhancement of nitrogen removal ability build up and enough rbCOD is suppled, maximum 88% of nitrogen is removed in the OSA process. If the OSA process optimizing the intermittent aeration cycle is applied to the separate sewage system with high rbCOD fraction, it can be converted to advanced process in terms of the sludge reduction and nitrogen removal, simultaneously.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of hydraulic backwash load and porous ceramic media on the biological nitrogen removal efficiencies of a biological aerated filter. An upflow anoxic-oxic biological aerated filter(AO-BAF) with porous ceramic media can remove nitrogen by nitrification and denitrification in single unit. After the AO-BAF backwash, nitrogen removal efficiency was lowest and gradually increased to the steady state. Nitrification efficiency, however, showed the opposite result. It is likely that the biofilms are exposed to aerobic condition as the excess biofilms were sloughed off by backwashing

A lab-scale submerged membrane bio-reactor (MBR) with intermittent aeration was carried out for investigating the behavior of soluble microbial products (SMP). The SMP concentration of mixed liquor at Run 1 accumulated immediately at the end of running and biodegradable SMP converted into non-biodegradable SMP, but it did not occurred at the Run 2 and 3. The SMP formation coefficient (k) at the anoxic phase was a little higher than oxic phase, and the lowest k was investigated at Run 3. The combination of biological denitrification with the MBR Process was advantageous in the prevention of membrane bio-fouling.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the removal characteristics of total nitrogen, the influence factor of denitrification and the optimum operating condition in the pigment wastewater treatment using PAC-A/O process. The operating conditions of PAC-A/O process were mean BOD volumetric loading $0.86kgBOD/m^3/day$, mean F/M ratio 0.072~0.13 kgBOD/kgMLVSS/day and mean C/N ratio 3.47, respectively. The conditions of anoxic process in the field plant test were mean pH 8.3~8.7 and mean temperature $34.1{\sim}44.0^{\circ}C$. The ORP bending point knee was eventually appeared in the ORP -107 mV and $NO_3{^-}-N$ removal efficiency was increased according to the ORP decrease. In the ORP -107 mV below condition, the removal efficiency of T-N and $NO_3{^-}-N$ was 92.3~95.0% and 98.5~99.7%. Denitrification rate was calculated to be 1.581~1.791 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/gMLSS/hr$. The experimental results showed that the ORP control in the PAC-A/O process could be an effective method for treatment of pigment wastewater.

수심이 얕고 부영양 호소인 L. Kasumigaura를 대상으로 퇴적층으로부터 유기물 용출특성을 조사하였다. 퇴적물의 함수율은 약 80%이상을 차지하고 있었으며 공극수의 DOC농도는 표층에서 높고 깊어질수록 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 특히 조사기간중 공극수의 DOC농도(104mg C/l)가 크게 증가하여 공극수로부터 수체로 용출 가능성이 높을 것으로 추정되었다. DOC 용출실험결과, 호기조건에서는 Labile-DOC (L-DOC)용출이 거의 관측되지 않았고 Refractory-DOC (R-DOC)만 관측되었으며, 혐기조건에서는 L-DOC와 R-DOC 모두 용출되는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 퇴적층의 상부수층에 DO가 충분히 유지되면 L-DOC는 용출되어도 호기성 bacteria에 의해 쉽게 분해되기 매문에 R-DOC만 용출되는 것으로 조사되었으며, 혐기조건하에서는 혐기성 bacteria의 유기물 분해능력의 감소로 L-DOC와 R-DOC모두 용출되는 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 내부생성기원의 유기물중 퇴적층으로부터 R-DOC 용출은 수체의 유기물 농도를 증가시키는 주요 원인으로 나타났으며, 수중 유기물의 대부분을 차지하고 있는 R-DOC는 유기물순환에 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있다는 사실이 확인되었다.

To treat wastewater efficiently by a one-step process of nitrogen removal, a new strain of $N_2-producing$ bacteria from $NH{_4}{^+}$ under an aerobic condition was isolated and identified. By 16S-rDNA analysis, the isolate was identified as Enterobacter asburiae with 96% similarity. The isolate shows that the capacity of $N_2$ production under an oxic condition was approximately three times higher than that under an anoxic condition. The optimal conditions (pH, temperature and C/N ratio) of the immobilized isolate for $N_2$ production were found to be 7.0, $30^{\circ}C$ and 5, respectively. Under all the optimum reaction conditions, the removal efficiency of $COD_{Cr}$ and TN reached 56.1 and 60.9%, respectively. The removal rates of $COD_{Cr}$ and TN were highest for the first 2.5 hrs (with the removal $COD_{Cr}$ ratios of 32.1), and afterwards the rates decreased as reaction proceeded. For application of the immobilized isolate to a practical process of ammonium removal, a continuous bioreactor system exhibited a satisfactory performance at HRT of 12.1 hr, in which the effluent concentrations of $NH{_4}{^+}-N$ was measured to be 15.4 mg/L with its removal efficiency of 56.0%. The maximum removal rate of $NH{_4}{^+}-N$ reached 1.6 mg $NH{_4}{^+}-N/L/hr$ at HRT of 12.1 hr (with N loading rate of 0.08 $Kg-N/m^3-carrier/d)$. As a result, the application of the immobilized isolate appears a viable alternative to the nitrification-denitrification processes.

Since anaerobic/anoxic/oxic process, which is a typical mainstream biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal process, utilizes influent organic matter as an external carbon source for phosphorus release in anaerobic or anoxic stage, influent COD/T-P ratio gives a strong influence on performance of phosphorus removal process. In this study, a bench scale experiment was carried out for SBR process to investigate nitrogen and phosphorus removal at various influent COD/T-P ratio and nitrate loadings of 23~73 and 1.6~14.3g $NO_3{^-}-N/kg$ MLSS, respectively. The phosphorus release and excess uptake in anoxic condition were very active at influent COD/T-P ratios of 44 and 73. However, its release and uptake was not obviously observed at COD/T-P ratio of 23. Consequently, phosphorus removal efficiency was decreased. In addition, the phosphorus release and uptake rate in anoxic condition increased as the nitrate loading decreased. Specific denitrification rate had significantly high correlation with organic materials and nitrate loadings of the anoxic phase too. The rate of phosphorus release and uptake in the anoxic condition were $0.08{\sim}0.94kg\;S-P/kg\;MLSS{\cdot}d$ and $0.012{\sim}0.1kg\;S-P/kg\;MLSS{\cdot}d$, respectively.
