The artificial aeration in the middle and the small scale reservoirs is widely used to destroy the stratified layer and algal boom. This study has been conducted at the Youncho reservoir located in Keoje island since Jan. 2000 to suggest the most suitable control strategy of the artificial aeration and reduce the side effect. The main results obtained from this research are as follows. The starting time of aeration for destratification was adjusted from the end of March to the beginning of April when the natural stratification is started. In order to prevent an anoxic condition the artificial mixing should be started by the middle of April when the DO in hypolimnion is dropped to less than $5mg/{\ell}$. The decrease DO, caused by the increase in water temperature, spreads rapidly from hypolimnion to themocline. Thermal stratification disappeared after the onset of artificial aeration within 7 days in the Yuncho reservoir. The air diffusers decrease water temperature in the layer of epilimnion and thermocline, but rise it in hypolimnion. The continuous operation of air diffuser prevent the stratification and anoxic condition in hypolimnion despite of the rising of water temperature and algal abundance. The algal abundance is not observed in effective zone by aeration. The turbidity rising problem induced from the aeration is avoided by keeping an air diffuser about 1.5m high from the bottom of lake. During the summer season, ceasing the aeration should be decided carefully. And also, it is necessary to operate the system it considering weather and temperature, and depending on the number and the position of aerators.

Effect of artificial circulation on amelioration of water quality in Yeoncho Lake was analyzed using summer data between 1991-2002. Two sites, intake tower area where aeration systems are concentrated in and near the inlet of reservoir were selected for comparison in this study. Summer averages between may and september Showed that aeration system might be beneficial in the improvement of water quality of BOD5, COD, and TN while Chl-a concentration and transparency did show opposite pattems. Wilcoxon's singed rank test for matched pair indicated slight increase of BOD5 and COD concentrations in the vicinity of intake tower while other variables did not show any significant differences from data of inlet of reservoir. During the study, it was found that the following subjects need to be investigated for more detailed analysis. 1) Dynamic pollutant loading from outside and inside the lake, 2) Biological, Chemical and Physical lake data when aeration systems are in and not in operation and 3) Radius of influence of aeration system.

In Korea while the dam or reservoir is an important water resource, the value of this water resource is deteriorating by thermal-induced stratification. To ameliorate the water quality of reservoir by breaking stratification the use of air diffuser system is now widespread in Korea. According to the previous research, dynamics of bubble plume and destratification efficiency depended upon two dimensionless groupings; Mh and Pn suggested by Asaeda et al (1993). However, these two variables only include Q, N, H, g, u. and installed Boryeong reservior in appropriate width of water aeration, air dose and number of installations after calculating by applying these figures. This paper is performed to find out effect analysis about water aeration improvement to break thermal stratification.

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology has previously been used by water industry to treat high salinity wastewater. In this study, an anoxic-oxic biofilm-membrane bioreactor (AOB-MBR) system has been developed to treat mustard tuber wastewater of 10% salinity (calculated as NaCl). To figure out the effects of operating conditions of the AOB-MBR on membrane fouling rate ($K_V$), response surface methodology was used to evaluate the interaction effect of the three key operational parameters, namely time interval for pump (t), aeration intensity ($U_{Gr}$) and transmembrane pressure (TMP). The optimal condition for lowest membrane fouling rate ($K_V$) was obtained: time interval was 4.0 min, aeration intensity was $14.6 m^3/(m^2{\cdot}h)$ and transmembrane pressure was 19.0 kPa. And under this condition, the treatment efficiency with different influent loads, i.e. 1.0, 1.9 and $3.3kgCODm^{-3}d^{-1}$ was researched. When the reactor influent load was less than $1.9kgCODm^{-3}d^{-1}$, the effluent could meet the third discharge standard of "Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard". This study suggests that the model fitted by response surface methodology can predict accurately membrane fouling rate within the specified design space. And it is feasible to apply the AOB-MBR in the pickled mustard tuber factory, achieving satisfying effluent quality.

Intermittent deep draw artificial circulation system is one of the most widely used destratification systems to control algal bloom in reservoirs in Korea. However, there have been neither theoretical background of design criteria nor operation guide line for efficient application of the system available for such systems. A design method was developed to calculate required compressor capacity and number of circulation units considering physical interactions between stratified water layers and plumes induced by the intermittent deep draw artificial circulation system. The program was tested with data observed in Yeoncho Lake. The results indicated that the developed method can applied in the fields successfully. Further validation processes would improve design and operation methods.

Water aeration is an effective water treatment process, which involves the injection of air or air-water mixture into water treatment reservoir commonly through pipes. The main purpose of water aeration is to maintain healthy levels of dissolved oxygen (DO), which is the most important water quality factor. The pipes' operating conditions are important for controlling the efficiency and effectiveness of aeration process. Many studies have been conducted on two-phase flows in pipes, however, there are a few studies to deal with small s ale in millimeter. The main objective of this study is to perform 2-dimensional two-phase simulations inside various straight pipes using the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) OpenFOAM (Open source Field Operation And Manipulation) tools to examine the influence of flow patterns on bubble size, which is closely related to DO concentration in a water body. The both flow regimes, laminar and turbulence, have been considered in this study. For turbulence, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) has been applied. The coalescence and breakage of bubbles caused by random collisions and turbulent eddies, respectively, are considered in this research. Sauter mean bubble diameter and water velocity are compared against experimental data. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental measurements.

용담댐 저수지에 설치된 대류식 순환장치에 대한 현장 조사 결과에 의하면 수평방향의 직접영향권은 성층 강도에 큰 영향 없이 반지름 $7{\sim}10m$에 이르는 것으로 조사 되었으며 수직방향으로는 성층강도에 따라 또는 가동기간에 따라 조금씩 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 가동시간이 길어짐에 따라 하층에서 올라온 수온이 낮은 수체는 보다 깊게 먼 곳까지 이동하는 것으로 나타났으나 성층을 깨지는 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 2008년 현장에서 실측 조사한 결과와 CFD모사 결과에 의하면 이런 조건에서 한 달을 가동하면 하층에서 올라온 수체가 대류식 장치 주변으로 수심 8 m, 지름 120 m의 수층을 이루게 되며 50일을 가동하면 수심 10 m, 지름 130m의 수층을 이루는 것으로 평가되었다. 대류식 순환장치가 설치된 지역에 대한 CFD모사를 하기 전에 이 지역의 흐름특성을 평가하였다. 대상 지역의 흐름은 연중 크게 3가지로 구분되었으며 각각의 경우 유량은 다르지만 저수지 수체의 흐름 속도는 모두 $0.05{\sim}1.5cm\;sec^{-1}$로 나타나 CFD모사시에 저수지 흐름을 고려하지 않아도 될 것으로 평가되었다. CFD를 이용한 수체거동 모사결과 순환장치로부터 3m지점에서의 유속은 $0.25m\;sec^{-1}$를 나타냈고, 5m지점에서는 $0.2m\;sec^{-1}$를 나타냈다. 현장 실측 결과와 비교시 유속은 모사 결과가 조금 크게 산정되는 것으로 나타났으나 향후 보다 많은 자료를 확보하여 비교해 보아야 할 것으로 판단되었다. 반면 영향범위는 반경방향으로 10 m지점까지는 직접영향을 받고, 그 보다 먼 지점은 간접영향권임을 나타내고 있어 이는 모사결과와 실측치 간에 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 수면에서의 온도분포는 순환장치로부터 분출된 저온의 물이 반지름 약 10 m지점까지는 수온변화에 영향을 미치는 직접영향권인 것을 알 수 있다. 이상과 같이 모사 결과는 현장에서 실측한 것과 유사한 결과를 나타내므로 결과의 신뢰성이 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

본 연구는 악취 제거용 반응조를 제작한 후, 현장 시험을 통해 마그네시아(MgO)를 이용하여 돈분 폐수에서 발생하는 악취를 최대한 저감하기 위한 최적 조건을 얻고자 하였다. 이를 위해 마그네시아의 충진양, 돈분 폐수의 주입량, 폭기 방식, 폭기양, 폭기 시간이 고려되었다. 현장 시험은 돈분 폐수 저장소를 갖추고 있는 청운 가축농장에서 실시하였다. 돈분 폐수(500 kg) 무게 대비 마그네시아의의 첨가량을 증가시킬수록 암모니아와 황화수소의 발생량은 점차적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 현장시험 결과, 반응조에 마그네시아를 0.8% 첨가하여 2일 동안의 폭기 시 돈분 폐수 중의 암모니아(NH₃)는 65%, 황화수소(H₂S)는 77% 감소하였다. 반응조 안의 돈분 폐수의 초기 pH는 8.2이었고 마그네시아를 0.8%까지 넣었을 때의 pH는 9.2를 나타내었다. 이러한 경향으로 비추어 볼 때, 마그네시아가 돈분 폐수 내의 pH를 점차적으로 상승시켜 약알칼리 상태로 만든다는 것을 알 수 있었다. pH가 증가함에 따라 폐수 내에 존재하는 암모니아 가스의 일부분은 공기 중으로 기화되고, 나머지 일부는 용해되어 있는 마그네슘이온, 인산이온과 화학결합한 후 침전되어 제거된다. 기존에 가축 농가의 대부분은 돈분 폐수의 악취를 제거하여 퇴비로 만들기 위해서 미생물을 활용한 6개월간의 폭기 과정을 거쳐야 했다. 대조적으로 미생물 활동에 영향이 없는 화학적 반응을 통해서 2일 내에 돈분 폐수로부터 악취를 저감할 수 있는 효과를 현 연구를 통해 입증하였다.

The oxygen solubilized device(O.S.D) and standardized microorganism culture system is more efficient than physical and chemical purification techniques in closed water. This study was to determine how the O.S.D and standardized culture system is efficient in purification capacity in closed water based on the lab scale and pilot plant. In the batch test, inducing the quantitative results from pilot plant operation condition, removal efficiency of COD and TN were about 48.3% and 35% respectively, while SS and chlorophyll-a were 94.9% and 68.7%. The pilot plant results showed that suspended solid(SS) and chlorophyll-a removal efficiency were 60% and 59% respectively, due to coagulation characteristics by standardized culture. Total nitrogen(TN) and total phosphorus(TP)showed good effect for the purification of target pond water quality from field data. Additionally, released velocity was determined in control condition of $5.31mgPO{_4}^{3-}{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}day^{-1}$ and $2486.8mgCOD{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}day^{-1}$. Otherwise, phosphate and COD reflux in the aeration and microorganism condition was showed $-9.95mgPO{_4}^{3-}{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}day^{-1}$ and $-397.88mgCOD{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}day^{-1}$. This technology is the most effective not only removal of SS and chlorophyll-a but also control of phosphate and COD release which is very important phenomena in evaluating water quality in closed water like a reservoir and pond.
