Water distribution systems supply drinking water to consumers' taps. Internal corrosion of metallic pipe used in drinking water distribution systems has reduced water quality and led to increased levels of toxic heavy metals such as lead, copper and nickel. These problems have been experienced to varying degrees by water utilities in many countries. North America has successfully managed and controlled pipe corrosion and corrosive water in water distribution system based on various policies, regulations and rules. Practical and engineering guidelines for evaluation of pipe corrosion and determination of treatment options are also provided to assist drinking water supplies. In addition, the corrosion mechanism in water distribution systems, such as the complex effects of physical and chemical parameters on the corrosion pipes has been improved to accurately predict corrosion rates of metallic pipes in actual water distribution systems. This paper reviews various regulations, policy statement, and treatment produces on controlling corrosion in drinking water distribution systems in US and Canada and then offers suggestion for management of corrosive water and pipe corrosion in drinking water distribution system in Korea.

For an urban watershed modeling, the ILLVDAS and SWMM model were the popular rainfall-runoff models using in Korea. However, combined sewerage systems in urban area produce some problems when a flood event happens because of the surcharged precipitation amounts which drain to streams directly. Also, rack of pipe line data and difficulties of modeling yield inappropriate modeling results in urban runoff analysis. In addition, rainfall-runoff models in an urban which using channel routing could be inaccurate and complicated processes. In this paper, the MIKE SWMM model has been applied for a stable urban area runoff analysis. Watershed and pipe line data were established by using past inundated records, DEM data and numerical pipe line data. For a runoff modeling, the Runoff block was adapted to a basin and the Extran block using dynamic equation was applied for sewerage system. After a comparisons against existing models yield that the MIKE SWMM model produce reliable and consistence results without distorting parameter of the model.

In this paper, the feedback loop mechanisms among the operational indices and exogenous variables of a sewerage system that are inherent in the operation and maintenance of a sewerage system were identified using the System Dynamics (SD) modeling methodology. The identified feedback loops were used to develop a SD computer simulation model that can be used to predict future operational conditions of a sewerage system and identified the efficient ways of operation. The data of Busan metropolitan city sewerage system was applied to verify the developed SD model and predict future operational conditions of the system. As a result, it was predicted that sewage treatment efficiency, volume of sewage treatment and cost recovery rate will be gradually increased, whereas service rate which was already very close to the target will remain almost the same as the current value. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis concerning some operational indices was performed in order to discover the policy leverage. As a result, it was found that the exogenous variables related to the pipe maintenance had a great effect on facility using rate, volume of sewage treatment as well as sewage treatment efficiency.

In this study, the optimal analysis for pipe network is performed for the combined ideal pipe network system(CASE 1, CASE 2 and CASE 3) which is composed of 25 nodes, 41 elements, and 1 fixed nodal head with evaluating pressure variation distribution of main and branch in grid composed drainage pipe network. The linear analysis technique used as the analysis method in this study, the KYPIPE being used extensively as the linear technique to design and analysis of pipe network is applied. Firstly, in the analysis of pipe network, the CASE 2 and CASE 3 supply same thing(value) in the result of considering the total flow provided each pipeline, but in the general intension in the case of CASE 2, relative width of supply is more large than CASE 1 and CASE 3. Secondly, in the analysis technique of pipe network, CASE 3 is analysed largest as a result of comparing with same heads, and in the order of their size CASE 2 and CASE 1 were determined but the difference doesn't appear to be obvious. Thirdly, as the result of determining main factor, pressure in the design and analysis of net work. CASE 3 is from Node 3 to 25 than CASE 1 and CASE 2 and it is determined in the order of their size, CASE 2 and CASE 1. Finally, in this study, discharge flow distribution is evaluated in the same condition with 3-type CASE in the case of branch position for designing optimal composed drainage pipe network. As the result of that, branch pipe perform. Therefore, it is thought that the efficient and reasonable management of water supply and sewerage design will be possible if it give all our energies to study at the pipe system design in and out of country in the future.

In order to examine the tailorability of advanced sewage treatment of a separated sewer pipe, we observed the quality of leaked water in a reactor. A2C affiliation and MBR affiliation decreased by over 78% in cases of BOD, COD, and SS. SBR affiliation decreased by 79.1% in a case of T-N. Overall, the efficiency of T-N on the above affiliations was low. SS had the high efficiency in MBR affiliation. In the end, examination of water quality improvement showed that the quality was improved from 20% to 90%; hence, it is expected that this treatment can protect the water resources of the Hongcheon River and makes it easier to use the water of the river.

It is very important entity that a map of urban facility is in civic life and development of city. But now, there are many needs of computerization which was used for management of urban facility map because inefficiency was produced due to management of urban facility map by hand. This paper, it was showed that a processing of establishing database in computer by applying GIS. The used sample area in studying in Ansan city in Kyunggi province and a sewer pipe which was in there adapted to establish database in computer. A map of administration district, which is 1:38,000, a map of complex urban planning of city, which is 1:3,000, and the facility map were used for the input of spatial data and the address, the year when sewer pipe was burried, and the quality of pipe, the pipe diameter, and the length of pipe were used as attribute data. Relational structure was used for establishment of database then, searching, analyzing, and processing were possible. Additionary, the result of this studying can be used for replacement of a old sewer pipe, a material quantity which is related with repairement of sewer pipe, and calculation of time, cost by application program framed by Fortran.

Geographic information system (GIS) sewer network data are a fundamental input material for urban inundation modeling, which is important to reduce the increasing damages from urban inundation due to climate change. However, the essential attributes of the data built by a local government are often missing because the purpose of building the data is the maintenance of the sewer system. Inconsistent simplification and supplementation of the sewer network data made by individual researchers may increase the uncertainty of flood simulations and influence the inundation analysis results. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a basic algorithm to convert the GIS-based sewage network data into input data that can be used for inundation simulations in consistent way. In this study, the format of GIS-based sewer network data for a watershed near the Sadang Station in Seoul and the Oncheon River Basin in Busan was investigated, and a missing data supplementing algorithm was developed. The missing data such as diameter, location, elevation of pipes and manholes were assumed following a consistent rule, which was developed referring to government documents, previous studies, and average data. The developed algorithm will contribute to minimizing the uncertainty of sewer network data in an urban inundation analysis by excluding the subjective judgment of individual researchers.

하수관은 평상시 개수로 흐름특성을 가지며, 설계강우를 초과하는 홍수사상이 발생하는 경우에만 만수되어 관로 흐름특성이 나타난다. 개수로 흐름은 Froude수에 의해 상류와 사류로 구분되며, 일반적으로 등류수로로 가정한 후 유출량 또는 수심 등 흐름 변위를 산정한다. 사류인 경우 하수관 출구부에서 등류수심이 발생한다고 가정하면 해석이 용이하지만 길이가 짧은 하수관에서 실험을 수행한 결과 등류조건을 조성하기가 용이하지 않았다. 따라서 등류수심이 발생한다는 가정 하에 개발된 기존 마찰계수 산정식의 보완이 필요하다. 완변이 부등류 해석법을 이용하여 부등류 마찰계수 산정식을 개발하고자 시도하였으며, 이를 등류 마찰계수 산정식의 결과와 비교하였다.

출구부 수심을 결정하는 것은 개수로 흐름을 해석하는 데 매우 중요하면서도 쉽지 않은 일이다. 출구부 수심을 결정하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 정확한 관측이 선행되어야 한다. 그러나 종종 그 형상이 복잡하고 부정확한 관측결과를 가져오는 경우도 있다. 이 때문에 본연구진은 보다 더 효과적으로 마찰계수와 출구부 수심을 결정하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 출구부 수심은 그 흐름 특성에 따라 상류일 경우에는 임계수심, 사류일 경우에는 등류수심과 거의 일치하며 이를 통해 출구부 수심을 양해적으로 산정하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 양해식은 관측된 '정류수심'자료를 통해 개발 및 검증되었으며, 여기서 정류수심은 하수관의 출구부에서부터 대략 관경의 0.7배 정도 떨어진 지점을 중심으로 형성되는 수심을 가리킨다.

Accumulation of sediment within pipelines, manholes, and other components of urban sewer systems can have a bad influence on sewerage arrangements, such as the resistance of the passage of flows, the cause of urban flooding and the premature operation of combined sewer overflows, and the inevitable pollution of watercourses. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the movements and sedimentation of sediment loads in combining junction manholes by experiments. In this study, hydraulic experimental apparatus which can change the manhole shapes (square, circle) were installed to measure deposited sedimentation quantity. The quantity of deposited sediment loads was measured by different conditions, for instance, the inflow conditions of sediment (continuous and certain period), the amount of inflow sediment, and the variation of inflow pipe of sediment. The combining junction manhole that was set up a inclined benching have the considerable effect of reduction of sedimentation in manholes without apropos of the change of manhole shapes. Therefore, the improved manhole could be increased the drainage capacity of sewerage arrangements in urban sewer systems.
