The characteristics of the ozone treatments of phenol were studied in a laboratory scale wastewater treatment system. The ozone treatment of wastewater was carried out in a batch-type reactor. The initial pH of wastewater(7-10), volumetric flow rate(1-2l/min) and ozone concentration(20~30 mg/l) of aerating gas were considereal as experimental variables in the ozone treatment. Phenol was decomposed easily by the ozone in a batch treatment, where the rate determining step was the COD removal that is decomposition of intermediates formed by the ozonation of phenol. Phenol decomposition and COD removal could be expressed by the first order reaction for the phenol concentration and COD, respectively. Rate constants of phenol decomposition and COD removal increased with the initial pH, volumetric flow rate and ozone concentration of aeration gas. Under the present experimental condition, their relationships could be given by for the phenol decomposition $k'=4.46\times 10^{-9}[pH]_o ^{3.94}[O_3]^{1.42}Q_{O3}^{1.57}$ for the COD removal $k=2.46\times 10^{-10}[pH]_o ^{5.19}[O_3]^{1.15}Q_{O3}^{1.19}$

본 연구에서는 휴믹산 농도, 초기 pH 그리고 공기주입유량과 같은 실험인자가 오존/페록시라디칼 반응시스템의 처리효율에 미치는 영향과 연속 처리을 통한 시스템의 처리 특성을 실험적으로 검토하였다. 오존과 페록시라디칼을 조합한 시스템의 처리효율은 각각의 단독공정에 비해 더 높은 색도 제거효율을 나타내었다. 초기 휴믹산 농도가 증가할수록 처리효율이 증가했지만 초기 휴믹산 농도 30mg/L 이상에서는 오히려 처리효율이 감소한 결과를 나타냈고 초기 pH의 경우 산성영역에서 보다는 중성과 알카리성 영역에서 휴믹산 제거효율이 더 높았으며 공기주입유량이 증가할수록 시스템의 처리효율이 증가하였다. Pilot-scale 시스템을 실제 정수장 유입수에 적용시킨 결과, TOC와 $COD_{Cr}$에 대한 각각의 평균 제거율은 약 70%와 60%로 나타나 수중 난분해성 유기물 제거를 위한 적용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

The ozonation process has been widely used for drinking water disinfection around the world. Recently, the pressurized ozone contactor, in which the side stream typed ozone injection method is installed, has been applied to water treatment system. In this study, numerical calculations were conducted to compare prototype and screw-type ozone contactors based on hydraulic effectiveness in more details. The prototype ozone contactor was already installed and operated in domestic water treatment plant, and the screw-type is the suggested one for improving ozone contact efficiency installing the screw plate to the prototype. Screw turn numbers of screw plate were changed as 3, 5, 7 and 9, respectively for numerical simulation. The CT(concentration of disinfectant in mg/L times time in minutes) value was considered as one of the options for evaluating disinfection ability. From the results, it could be concluded that the performance of the screw-type is higher than that of the protype contactor by controlling the variable T as the tracer time. Also, Morill index of the screw-type(turn numbers = 5 ) appeared to be lower than the other.

Repeated phenol spill in the Nakdong River has been a big issue in Korea since 1991. In this study, treatment of phenol in each water treatment process and total water treatment system is evaluated. Phenol was highly volatile, easily oxidized by ozone, and readily absorbed onto GAC. When there was phenol of 0.3mg/L in water, by ozonation of 1mg/L or by GAC adsorption with EBCT of 10minutes or longer, it could be treated to lower than 0.005mg/L, the national drinking water standard of phenol. Even when a sufficient contact time(70minutes) was allowed, only 35 to 40% of phenol could be removed by powdered activated carbon(PAC). Based on the test results, it can be concluded that 1.0mg/L or less concentration of phenol can be treated at the plants adopting the combination process of ozone and GAC down to the safe level. In this study, removal characteristics for phenol were evaluated with the existing pilot plant and demo plant in different advanced water treatment processes(AWTPs). In the future, studies on changes in oxidation and adsorption characteristics caused by competitive matters such as DOC and removal characteristics by other various AWTPs including ozone/filter adsorber need to be performed.

The bioremediation of water system contaminated with phenolic compounds having endocrine-disrupting activity, i.e. 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D), and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4,5-T), was investigated by using ozone oxidation and activated sludge treatment. Ozone oxidation (ozonation time: 30 min) followed by activated sludge treatment (incubation time: 5 days) was an efficient treatment method for the conversion of phenolic compounds in water into carbon dioxide and decreased the value of total organic carbon (TOC) up to about 10% of initial value. Furthermore, 2,4-D was dissolved in water containing salt, i.e. artificial seawater (ASW), and this water was used as model coastal water contaminated with phenolic compounds. The activated sludge treatment (incubation time: 5 days) could consume significantly organic acids produced from 2,4-D in the model costal water by the ozone oxidation (ozonation time: 30min) and decrease the value of TOC up to about 35% of initial value.

It is evident that Korea will continue its battle with water shortage and alternative program are being taken into action. One of the main actions is reusing 1,800 tons of effluent of 357 sewage treatment plant located nationwide. Therefore this study supplemented ozone oxidation methods that would increase the efficiency of organic oxidation and coagulation. Through this method, fouling will be controled sufficiently by preventing membrane process in the system for advanced sewage treatment. In this study, ozone-coagulation-microfiltration membrane were used. The final removal efficiency of the pretreated water from the result of the ozone-coagulation were 50% of CODcr, 38% of TP and 11% of TOC respectively. Water quality treatment has decreased about 80% for TP. Ozone-coagulation-microfiltration membrane maintains the high flux while decreasing the number of organic matter and the membrane fouling, and reducing the TP. As a result, in order to reuse the water from the sewage, the ozone-coagulation-microfiltration membrane type must be considered in order to achieve the best efficiency.

In this study we investigated the removal characteristics of NOM and bromate formation characteristics in SOMT reactor. The system was recently developed as a novel ozone reactor and installed in SJ pilot plant. DOC values were decreased within 3% after treatment of 0.5~2.0 mg/L ozone dosage in SOMT reactor while the $UV_{254}$ value was 69% decreased at 2.0 mg/L ozone dosage. The composition of NOM was analysed by LC-OCD (Organic Cabon Detector) after ozone treatment in SOMT reactor to elucidate the variation of NOM character. Polysaccharide (more than 20,000 g/mol) fraction of NOM was decomposed while building blocks (350~500 g/mol) and neutral (less than 350 g/mol) fraction increased. Spiked bromide reacted with 0.5~2.0 mg/L ozone dosage in the SOMT reactor. The bromate formation was proportional to the ozone dosage ($R^2=0.978$) but not proportional to reaction time. The maximum concentration of formated bromate was not exceeded to 10% of spiked bromide concentration.

Ozone is a strong oxidant and a powerful disinfectant. In general, it has been used in drinking water treatment during last 100years. Ozone dissolution features are defined by the two categories of ozone contactors, bubble-diffuser and sidestream ozone contactor. Currently, sidestream-injection systems are gaining in popularity but operating cost might be slightly higher. Sidestream ozone system dissolve ozone into a sidestream flow via an injection setup or in the main process flow stream in some sidestream arrangements. The sidestream flow is subsequently mixed with the main process flow stream, which is directed to a reation tank or pipeline for oxidation and disinfection reactions. The purpose of this study is to suggest optimal operating pressure, to figure out the static-mixer effect and to understand the microbubble characteristics of ozone to improve dissolution efficiency.

The objectives of this study are to investigate a bromate behaviour in the processes of advanced water treatment system (AWTS: preozonation, coagulator-settler, rapid sand filter, postozonation, biological activated carbon (BAC) beds) and to investigate the effects of ozonation, pH and ammonia nitrogen on bromate (${BrO^-}_3$) formation. As a result, $BrO_3$ was not detected in the processes of the AWTS without ozonation, while it was detected in a preozonated and postozonated water. For $BrO_3$ formation during June to November, the $BrO_3$ concentration of <9.4${\mu}g/L$ was observed in postozonated water, while it was reduced to about 46% by BAC beds. When applied ozone dosage and ozone contact time for influent with $Br^-$ of <0.3mg/L were 0.5-2.0mg/L.min and 10 min., $BrO_3$ concentration increased with increasing ozone dosage. Longer contact time and lower ozone level also was needed to inhibit the formation of $BrO_3$. At ozone dosage of 1.4 mg/L.min, the formation rate of $BrO_3$ increased with increase of pH value. When $NH_4-N$ concentration increased from 0.1mg/L to 0.4mg/L, $BrO_3$ concentration decreased to about 38%. These results revealed that $BrO_3$ concentration increased with increasing Br level, ozone dosage, and pH value, while it decreased with increase of $NH_4-N$ concentration.
