This study has cross checked the change of internal sludge-recycle in Anaerobic-Digestion, and researched about not only the improvement of Bio-gas production from the digested sludge but also the efficient method of sludge minimization. Ultimate object of the study is to reduce the amount of sludge by the improved efficiency of contact with the organic-matter and the microbes in Anaerobic-Digestion. The sludge-recycle fluidized sludge layer and raised the activity of the sludge, the optimal sludge-recycle ratio, VS and COD removal ratio were 1,000%, 28.2% and 27.7%, respectively. Through these results of this study, it may be of use to treat waste sludge by the sludge-recycle ratio in terms of minimization and circulation of resources.

The pilot plant experiment was performed to investigate phosphorus and nitrogen removal from domestic wastewater by MLE process combined with aluminum corrosion reactor. When operating 0.5Q and 1Q to internal recycle and sludge recycle in the MLE process, the effluent $COD_{Mn}$ concentration of internal recycle 0.5Q were higher than internal recycle 1Q, the removal efficiency rates of $NH_3$-N in the internal recycle 0.5Q were was higher than internal recycle 1Q. Denitrification rates were about 86.8% in internal recycle and sludge recycle 0.5Q. When operating 0.5Q to internal recycle and sludge recycle in the MLE process, the removal efficiency rates of total nitrogen was the highest. The removal efficiency rates of total phosphorus was about 91.5% in the aluminum corrosion reactor.

활성 슬러지 하수처리장의 주요 Process Control Variables인 Sludge age와 Sludge recycle올 고려하여 폐슬러지의 유량 ($Q_w$)을 효과적으로 결정하기 위한 두가지의 식이 개발되었다. 아울러 반송 슬러지의 일부를 폐슬러지로 배출할 경우에는 우선 순환비 (R)를, 포기조내의 활성슬러지의 일부를 폐슬러지로 배출할 경우에는 2차침전지의 슬러지 침전효율($S_f$)을 정확히 측정하여 개발된 식을 이용하면 폐슬러지의 유량을 용이하게 산정할 수 있다는 사실이 Sensitivity analysis의 결과로 밝혀졌다.

This study was accomplished to develope an advanced wastewater treatment process using high MLSS in anoxic tank aimed to improve nutrient removal and to reduce wasting sludge. It was operated with 4 Modes with varing solid concentration and internal recycle ratios. Mode I, II, III was operated 1.0~1.5% MLSS concentration at anoxic tank with 50% sludge recycle rate, however, each internal recycle rate were 100%, 200%, 300% and Mode IV was operated 1.5~2.0% MLSS concentration at anoxic tank with 50% sludge recycle rate and 100% internal recycle rate. The COD removal efficiency didn't show any big difference from Mode I to IV. The average COD removal rate was over than 90%. The T-N removal rate was 73%, the highest rate in all mode. The 36% of SCOD is used for the denitrification and phosphorus release in the anoxic tank. Specific denitrification rate was 3.5mg $NO_3{^-}-N/g$ Mv/hr and denitrification time was 0.7hr. As MLSS concentration is higher in anoxic tank as denitrification time would be shorter. The T-P removal rate was average 70%. The phosphorus release accomplished from the anoxic tank because the anaerobic condition was prevalent in the anoxic due to the prompt completion of denitrification. Sludge production was 0.28 kgVSS/kg $BOD_{removed}$ under the 1.5% MLSS and 17 day SRT. It is prominent result which has 40% sludge reduce comparing with traditional activate sludge system.

Effluent recycling effect on UASB reactor performances is known as an important operational factor. In the present study, the possibility of intermittent recycle in UASB process for saving the power consumption was examined at different organic loading and various operational modes in recycle time period. The organic removal efficiencies of the reactors operated with the intermittent effluent recycle were considerably higher compared to those without the effluent recycle. In the intermittent recycle mode, the organic removal efficiencies slightly decreased as the non-recycle time period in the operational mode increased. Proper ratio of recycle and non-recycle time period in the mode seemed to be required to prevent the produced biogas from accumulation in the sludge bed, which caused dead zone in the reactor and sludge loss when the gas was escaped from the bed at the certain pressure.

하수를 정화하는 과정에서 발생하는 슬러지는 과거 주로 매립되어 왔으나, 2003년 유기성 슬러지의 매립금지라는 폐기물 관리법이 개정됨에 따라 최근에는 주로 해양투기 되어왔다. 그러나 '런던협약 96의정서'에 의해 2011년부터 해양투기도 금지될 예정이어서, 세계 각국은 슬러지의 다양한 처리방법에 대해 노력하고 있다. 우리나라도 예외 없이, 하수슬러지의 합리적인 처리방법을 찾기 위해 현재 많은 전문가들이 노력하고 있으며, 그중 하나가 재생 에너지화이다. 슬러지의 재생 에너지화의 성패는 친환경적이고 경제적인 건조방법에 달려 있다 해도 과언이 아니다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 영동군에서 발생하고 있는 하수슬러지를 재생에너지화하기 위해, 슬러지의 화학적 특성을 분석하여 에너지화 가능성을 검토하고, 마이크로파를 물과 슬러지에 각각 조사하여 슬러지의 건조 특성과 효율성 등을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 영동군하수 슬러지는 중금속 성분이 매우 적고 열량이 3,370kcal/kg 이상으로 재생에너지화하기에 적당함을 확인하였다. 또한, 마이크로파에 의한 슬러지 건조 특성을 분석한 결과, 슬러지 중량 대비 시간의 곡선은 투입 슬러지 량에 관계없이 늘어진 S자 형태의 거동특성을 보임은 물론 그 기울기가 일정함을 확인하였다. 또한, S 곡선을 변곡점 기준으로 세 영역으로 나눌 경우 두 번째 영역에서 건조가 가장 많이 일정하게 발생하며, 전체 건조량의 약 80% 이상임도 확인하였다. 본 결과는 향후 마이크로파를 이용한 full-scale 건조공정에서 투입 슬러지 대비 슬러지 건조량을 예측하는데 적용할 수 있다. 또한 본 실험 결과에 의하면, 마이크로파에 의한 건조능력이 약1.0kg/kW 이상을 보이고 있어 경제성도 갖고 있음을 확인하였다.

Membrane separation technology has become a more attractive technology on waste water treatment and water recycle in recent years. On this application, membrane does not take main part of treatment, such as decomposition or handling of organic matter in the waste water, but it is very important supporting method in the total system. Activated sludge is most popular method as main part. In the system , membrane works as a separator to obtain clear water after biological treatment, by which the permeate could be released, recycled or applied to further additional treatment, instead of conventional sedimentation, coagulation and sand filtration. We would like to introduce our system cases for waste water treatment and water recycle, in which membrane separation technology works. In most of cases, membranes are applied to solid- liquid separation of activated sludge. Our experiences will be introduced as following items.

The treatment performances of anaerobic-aerobic activated sludge process were investigated under various operation conditions. The treatment system proposed in this study gave a relatively stable performance against hourly change of the flow rate and showed a satisfactory removal of nitrogen and phosphorus compounds under experimental conditions. The recycle ratio of mixed liquor from aerobic to anaerobic region and peak coefficient primarily controlled the extent of nitrogen removal. The recycle ratio had the optimum values which were determined by the microbial activities of nitrification and denitrification. The behavior of the treatment unit could be simulated by using the kinetic equations and reactor models which considered the treatment units as complete mixing tanks.
