This study is selected two points of combined sewer that occurred Fish Kill after first flush, that analyzed generation of pollutants and stream runoff generation of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) as fine weather and rainfall. In addition, this study was to analyze the relationship between CSOs and sediments, to propose measures to reduce the sediment relevant with CSOs and rainfall runoff from entering sewage treatment plants and measures for discharged directly into streams when indicate relatively good water quality after overflow. Sediments in combined sewer system was discharged about 50~80% as overflows during rainfall and we can reduce the amount of the CSOs at least 50% or more if the sewer does not exist in the sediments because of the amount of discharge about the amount of intercept has been investigated by 3~5 times. Because of velocity at sediment interval in sewer is very low, sewage velocity of about 3~5 times as much as it can increase the amount of sediment can be reduced if the separation wall is installed. Effective control of BOD overflow load is respectively 77.5%, 75.8% at first point, second point by the separation wall is installed. Drainage area greater than area in this study or many combined sewer overflows region is increased the more effective control of separation wall. Turbidity to measure changes in water quality of overflows can be used as an factor to control the intercept flows because the intercept flows(3Q) after the first flush has lowered removal efficiency and increases the operational load of sewage treatment plants. Sewage water quality after a overflow when the reasonable turbidity was measured at this point flows to excluded intercept flow(1Q) can be discharged to stream.

탁도는 송 배수 관로의 부식 등에 의해 발생되는 것으로 알려진 'Discolored Water'현상을 수용가의 물 사용자가 인지할 수 있는 주요 지표로서 활용되고 있다. 즉, 'Discolored Water'는 수돗물 사용자가 육안으로 인지할 수 있는 정도의 탁도를 가진 상태로 정의할 수 있으며, 사용자는 수돗물에 존재하는 불특정의 용존 물질보다는 미세한 입자들에 대한 시각적인 인지인 탁도를 통해서 'Discolored Water'를 인식하게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 실제 국내 상수도 시스템 내에서 관측된 다항목의 수질데이터(탁도, pH 및 잔류염소)를 대상으로 하여 탁도 이외의 수질데이터들을 예측모형의 설명변수로 설정한 후 데이터 마이닝 기법(data mining)을 통해 기계학습(machine learning)을 수행하여, 상수도 시스템 내에서의 탁도 변화를 예측하는 모형을 수립하고자 하였다. 수집된 수질 데이터를 대상으로 데이터 마이닝 기법인 Decision Tree를 이용해 탁도 예측모형을 구축한 결과 pH 및 잔류염소를 설명변수로 적용한 모형이 가장 높은 예측결과를 나타내었다. 하지만 예측모형들은 peak 관측치에 대해서는 예측오차가 다소 증가하였는데 이를 보완하기 위해 고주파통과필터를 이용한 전처리 과정을 적용하였다. 그 결과 탁도 데이터의 시계열변화 및 peak 관측치에 대한 예측오차가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

홍수 혹은 융설로 인한 대량의 담수유입은 만에서의 염분농도를 급격히 저하시키며, 그러한 변화는 근해 생물들의 서식환경을 파괴하는 경우도 있다. 그러므로 자연환경의 적절한 활용 및 생물들의 보호를 위해 만에서의 염분분포를 정량적으로 파악하는 연구는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 1차적으로 위성영상과 탁도와의 상관성을 조사하고, 2차적으로는 탁도와 염분농도와의 상관성을 이용하여 만에서의 염분분포를 구하였다. 본 연구의 주요 성과는 다음과 같다. 첫째 위성영상의 RGB밴드와 탁수와의 변별력 평가를 위해 만을 4개 구역으로 분할하여 비교하였으며, Band2와 Band3의 조합이 탁수거동 재현에 가장 효과적임을 규명하였다. 둘째 관측소로부터 하구까지의 도달시간을 계산한 후 상류에서 관측된 탁도로부터 하구의 탁도를 추정하였다. 셋째 하구에서의 탁도와 심해의 염분농도와의 관계를 이용하여 위성영상을 염분분포로 변환하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 만에서의 염분분포 조사방법은 대상지역의 공간적 특성을 고려해 볼 때 비교적 신뢰할 만하다고 사료된다.

Silt Density Index (SDI) has been used as a fouling index for reverse osmosis (RO) processes for decades. In order to decrease RO fouling, feed water should meet SDI standard, which was used to select a proper pretreatment system for RO processes. However, SDI is supposed to be sensitive only to particles larger than 0.45 ${\mu}m$ in terms of diameters while nanoparticles and dissolved organic matter can be potent foulants for RO processes. Our study started from the suspected performance of SDI as a RO fouling index. SDI data from pilot plants located world wide including South Korea were collected and analyzed. Suspended partcle concentration (i.e., turbidity and particle counts), and dissolved organic matter concentration (i.e., dissolved orgnaic carbon (DOC) concentration) data were also collected and compared to SDI values of same water samples. We found that SDI values were not only affected by suspended particle concentration but also by dissolved organic matter concentration. Therefore SDI can be used as a reasonable fouling index for RO feed water because the main foulants for RO processes are suspended particle and dissolved organic matter.

Dispersion of coagulant should be completed in a fraction of a second before the metal hydroxide precipitate has form. For the reason so-called pump diffusion flash mixing (PDFM) have been proposed, and PDFM is one of reasonable methods to quickly disperse the hydrolyzing metal salts. In this study, therefore, we attempt to understand the difference of removal characteristics of natural organic matter (NOM) between pump diffusion flash mixing (PDFM) and conventional rapid mixing (CRM) for coagulation in a water treatment system, and to enhance the removal of NOM through the improved mixing process. DOC and turbidity removal by PDFM higher than those by CRM, while SUVA value of water treated by PDFM was high as compared with that by CRM. Hydrophilic NOM was more effectively removed by PDFM than CRM, since charge neutralization effect increased by quick dispersion of coagulant. The DBP formation potentials due to NOM was effectively reduced by the improved mixing (i.e., PDFM) for coagulation and could be controlled through decrease in concentration of precursor rather than reduction of activity with disinfectant.

Several complaints from consumers on red or turbid waters were often filed at the same places although various efforts were made to improve water quality in the drinking water plant. The red water problems were occurred due to corrosion of main water pipe, especially at extremity. The low concentrations of chlorine indicating poor water quality were detected at the problematic location. To solve the poor water quality at the extremity, flushing techniques, i.e., conventional flushing, unidirectional flushing, and continuous flushing, were recently practiced. In this study, effects of conventional flushing on water qualities were examined by comparing turbidity and residual chlorine before and after flushing. In addition, more detailed analyses on water qualities at the tap water were conducted to learn a reduction pattern during flushing. Five items from geographic information system of water distribution were used to obtain a relationship with water quality, washing duration or amounts of washing water. The flushing was effective to meet the National Drinking Water Quality Standard with simple and relatively short time operation. The key operational parameter in flushing was amounts of washing water which should be estimated based on water quality of the consumer's tap water. The positive relationship between the residual chlorine and pipe length implied that detention time in the pipeline was the main cause of the complaints. More experiments on effectiveness of flushing are needed to determine reasonable strategies of flushing.

Effects of coagulation types on flocculation were investigated by using a photometric dispersion analyzer (PDA) as an on-line monitoring technique in this study. Nakdong River water were used and alum and ferric chloride were used as coagulants. The aim of this study is to compare the coagulation characteristics of alum and ferric chloride by a photometric dispersion analyzer (PDA). Floc growing rates ($R_v$) in three different water temperatures ($4^{\circ}C$, $16^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) and coagulants doses (0.15 mM, 0.20 mM and 0.25 mM as Al, Fe) were measured. The floc growing rate ($R_v$) by alum was 1.8~2.8 times higher than that of ferric chloride during rapid mixing period, however, for 0.15 mM~0.25 mM coagulant doses the floc growing rate ($R_v$) by ferric chloride was 1.1~2.3 times higher than that of alum in the slow mixing period at $16^{\circ}C$ water temperature. Reasonable coagulant doses of alum and ferric chloride for turbidity removal were 0.1 mM (as Al) and 0.2 mM (as Fe), respectively, and the removal efficiency of those coagulant doses showed 94% for alum and 97% for ferric chloride. The appropriate coagulant dose of alum and ferric chloride for removing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) showed about 0.3 mM (as Al, Fe) and at this dosage, DOC removal efficiencies were 36% and 44%, and ferric chloride was superior to the alum for removal of the DOC in water.

본 연구에서는 빗물과 중수를 연계하여 각각의 단점을 극복하고 장점을 극대화 할 수 있는 빗물-저농도 오수 하이브리드 시스템을 설계하고 서울대학교에 설치하여 수량 및 수질 모니터링과 경제성을 평가하였다. 건물에서 발생하는 오수 중세면, 샤워용수를 중수로 선택하여 침지형 분리막과 오존산화 처리하였으며, 건물 옥상에서 집수된 빗물은 저류 후 처리수조로 이송되어 처리된 저농도 오수와 혼합되어 변기 세척용수로 공급하였다. 변기 세척용수 $3,979m^3$ 중 65%인 $2,599m^3$를 빗물 이용과 저농도 오수를 재이용하였다. 빗물은 총대장균을 제외한 나머지 항목에서 중수도 수질 기준을 만족하였으며, 저농도 오수는 탁도, SS, BOD, 총대장균이 기준치를 초과하여 침지형 분리막과 오존산화 처리하여 안정적인 수질을 유지하였다. 경제성 분석 결과, 빗물-저농도 오수 하이브리드 시스템은 B/C (Benefit-Cost Ratio) 비율이 1.11으로 사업의 타당성이 있다고 판단된다. 물 재이용시설의 이용확대를 위해 시설 운영에 따른 경제성을 높이기 위한 다양한 연구 및 정책적 지원이 필요하다.
