In accordance with the need of developing a methodology for the sludge reduction, this study investigates the effect of sonication on the dewaterability of the sewage sludge. The investigation involves laboratory experiments of the sewage sludge from Yongin Waste Treatment Plant. The Laboratory tests were conducted under a broad range of conditions including energy levels of ultrasonic waves, time for the treatment, pH, and effect of polymers. The results of the study show that sonication enhances the dewaterability significantly The degree of enhancement varies with sonication power, treatment time, the amount of sludge treated. The effect of sonication on the temperature and pH of the test specimens seems not to be significant. The polymer can be useful to enhance the effectiveness of ultrasound treatment.

본 연구에서, 400도에서 탄화시킨 정수 슬러지를 수중의 납과 카드뮴의 제거를 위한 흡착제로서 시험하였다. 탄화된 슬러지는 열중량 분석, 주사 전자 현미경, X-선 형광분광기, 표면적 분석에 의해 특성화 하였다. 탄화 슬러지는 정수 슬러지 자체보다도 대단히 높은 비표면적과 총 세공부피를 나타내었다. 회분식 흡착 과정에서 탄화 슬러지는 카드뮴보다는 납에 대하여 더 나은 흡착성능을 보였으며, 실험에서 행한 농도에서 90~98%의 흡착 능력을 달성하였다. 흡착의 평형 데이터는 Freundlich와 Langmuir와 흡착등온선 모델을 이용하여 평가하였고, Freundlich와 Langmuir 흡착 등온선 둘 다 0.95보다 큰 상관계수($R^2$) 값을 나타내었다. 연구의 결과들은 열처리 된 탄화 정수 슬러지가 수중으로부터 납과 카드뮴을 제거하는데 효율적인 흡착제로 사용될 수 있다는 것을 보였다.

There is a need to improve the efficiency of the existing sanitary treatment facilities, because the effluent standard becomes more stricter and septic sludge increased. Thus, operating processes of sanitary treatment system in M city changed with installation of additional facilities. Process modifications were as follows: Dilution water was added to the next process after primary aeration tank. Some secondary sedimentation sludge was recycled to primary aerator so that most of the organics were stabilized in primary aeration tank under automatic control of dissolved oxygen. The line of effluent from dewatering process flowing to the activated sludge tank was changed to the primary aerator. The primary sedimentation sludge line was linked to a thickener. Polymer was added to the activated sludge tank. The effluent of primary aerator and aerobic digester was recycled from the 5th to the 1st sector. As consequencies of above process modifications, the improvement of removal efficiency was achieved as BOD 54%, COD 42%, SS 61%, T-N 39%, and T-P 12%, respectively.

Dewatering sludge using inorganic chemicals with polymer has been evaded for reuse on account of the risks of high heavy metals contained and soil acidification. Composting feasibility of coagulation & dewatering sludges produced from livestock waste treatment plant was investigated. The results of analysis prove that dewatering sludge is valuable matter with suitable elements for composting if high quality ferric chloride ($FeCl_3$) is used for coagulation & dewatering process. In pot-cultivation of harvestes, using effects of dewatering sludge improved with lime treatment was very effective. The results of pot-cultivation proved that harms of crops according to different acid tolerances were not detected. But it was not applied to crops with weak acid tolerance or greenhouse for free from gas damage. Also, Further studies and monitorings are necessary to use sludges because results of pot-cultivation were generated differently by characteristics of soil, nutrient demand of plants, mature degree of sludge, consecutive cultivation and etc.

Excess sludge treatment and disposal currently represent a rising challenge for domestic or wastewater treatment plants due to economic, environmental and regulation factors. Conventional gravity sedimentation process has been widely used in sludge thickening. The operation method of the process is very simple, but the process requires long detention time for sludge thickening, uses polymers, and shows low sludge thickening efficiency. To solve the problems, we studied on DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation) system. We use bulking sludge of a paper manufacturing plant. The effects of parameters such as SVI (Sludge Volume Index), storage time, initial concentration and wet density of excess sludge were examined. The results showed that the more SVI was low, the more sludge was thickened. As storage time goes by, SVI was increased and thickening performance was deteriorated. In order to improve flotation performance at high concentration, high recycling ratio and pressure did not increase the concentration due to thickening limitation. The addition of 0.8 g/L of loess was increased flotation efficiency of 1.41 times.

본 연구는 하수슬러지의 가용화를 위해 열가수분해와 고액분리 공정을 결합하여 적용하였다. 열가수분해-고액분리 공정으로 전처리한 하수슬러지의 D10, D50와 D90은 각각 8.6, 59.2와 425.1 ㎛로, 열가수분해 단독 처리한 것에 비해 작게 나타났다. 분자량 분포 실험의 결과에 따르면, 열가수분해 단독 처리한 하수슬러지는 10-100kDa 구간의 비율이 가장 높게 나타났다. 반면에, 열가수분해-고액분리된 하수슬러지는 <1kDa 구간의 비율이 48.3%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 단독 열가수분해 처리한 하수슬러지는 10kDa 이상의 구간에서 DOC와 UVA₂₅₄가 높게 나타났다. 반면에 열가수분해-고액분리한 하수슬러지는 <1kDa 구간의 DOC와 UVA₂₅₄가 가장 높은 비율로 나타났다. 열가수분해-고액분리한 하수슬러지의 메탄 전환율은 0.287±0.015 L CH₄/kg COD로 단독 처리한 것에 비해 1.7배 높게 나타났다.

Endocrine-disrupting phenolic compounds in the water were degraded by laccase from Trametes sp. followed by activated sludge treatment. The effect of temperature on the degradation of phenolic compounds and the production of organic compounds were investigated using endocrine-disrupting chemicals such as bisphenol A, 2.4-dichlorophenol, and diethyl phthalate. Bisphenol A and 2.4-dichlorophenol disappeared completely after the laccase treatment, but no disappearance of diethyl phthalate was observed. The Michaelis-Menten type equation was proposed to represent the degradation rate of bisphenol A by the lacasse under various temperatures. After the laccase treatment of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, the activated sludge treatment was attempted and it could convert about 85 and 75% of organic compounds produced from bisphenol A and 2.4-dichlorophenol into H$_2$O and CO$_2$, respectively.

한국에서 오염물 해양투기는 하수슬러지 처리방식으로 널리 사용되어 왔다. 하지만 2009년 이후 적용되어 온 음식폐기물과 하수슬러지의 해양투기 오염 방지에 관한 런던 협약에 따라 2013부터 엄격한 법적 제재가 예상된다. 따라서, 고농축 유기 슬러지 처리 를 위한 고효율 포기 시스템을 사용한 현장 실험실 테스트가 하수 및 산업폐수처리장에서 적용이 되었다. 연구 결과는 고효율 포기 시스템이 유기성 슬러지의 감량화에 매우 유용한 것으로 나타났으며, 구체적인 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째로 고효율 포기 시스템을 이용한 슬러지 소화시 유기물 제거율은 56.2 ~ 85.8 %이었다. 이러한 결과가 일반 하수 처리효율보다 낮지만, 고효율 포기 시스템의 처리대상 슬러지가 공장 폐수임을 고려할 때 매우 유용한 것으로 판단된다. 둘째로 슬러지 평균 제거 효율은 약 25.2 %이었다. 셋째로 고효율 포기 시스템에 의한 슬러지 처리비용에 효과적으로 기여할 수 있는 것으로 드러났다. 특히, 고효율 포기 시스템이 높은 고농도 슬러지를 함유하거나, 산업페기물이거나 고농도의 강열잔류 고형물(FS) 포함되어 있는 경우의 소규모 하수 및 폐수 처리장의 현장 처리에 더욱 효과적이다.

From this research, the performances of a sludge reduction in the sewage sludge aerobic digestion was experimented by using a sludge pretreatment and membrane bioreactor. The submerged plate membrane was used as the solid-liquid separation membrane. After drawing small amounts of sludge in a bioreactor and then doing the alkaline treatment and ozone treatment, the sludge was sent to back to the reactor. The HRT in the reactor was set as 5 days and the operation in the reactor was carried out at the DO of 1mg/L on average. After 100 days of operation in the reactor, it was shown that the reduction efficiency of total solids was more than 83%. Most of volatile solids were removed through mineralization, and the considerable portion of the non-volatile solids was dissolved and then flowed out with the effluent. Only about 16.3% of total solids in the sludge was accmulated in the reactor even without the loss of volatile fraction. Also, by deriving nitrification and denitrification in one reactor simultaneously, more than 90% of nitrogen removal effect was realized and the experiment was run smoothly without fouling of membrane, even in the high concentration of MLSS. Based on this experiment, sludge can be reduced considerably at a low HRT by these two newly suggested approach.

하수처리 운전이 슬러지 특성에 미치는 영향을 실제규모 하수처리장에서 수행하였으며 하수 슬러지 특성변화가 퇴비화 원료로 이용될 경우 그 영향을 조사, 분석하였다. 천안 하수처리장은 가동 초기 1년동안 정상적으로 운전되고 있으며 유출수는 방류수 수질기준을 만족하고 있으나 유입유량의 증가로 인하여 처리장 증설이 시급하다. 슬러지 탈수시설인 Belt press의 용량부족으로 하수처리장 내 비휘발성 고형물이 순환, 농축되어 활성 슬러지 MLSS 증가와 이에 따라 F/M비가 감소되게 운전하는 결과를 초래하고 있으며 이러한 상태로 하수처리장이 장기간 운전될 경우 하수처리 시설의 효율저하가 우려된다. 하수 슬러지의 수분함량은 79.5%, 유기물 함량은 11.6 %, C/N비는 6.1이었으며 중금속으로 As 1.8 mg/kg, Cd 27 mg/kg, Hg <0.1 mg/kg, Pb 54 mg/kg, T-Cr 370 mg/kg과 Cu 1,100 mg/kg이 검출되었다.하수 슬러지는 퇴비화 적정조건을 만족할 수 있는 원료로서 사용되기 위하여 수분함량, 유기물 함량 그리고 C/N비의 조절이 필요하며 이를 위한 첨가제/팽화제의 첨가가 필수적이다. 하수처리장 유입수에 함유된 중금속은 대부분 하수 슬러지에 농축되며 퇴비화 원료로 사용될 경우 부산물비료로서 규격기준에 적합하지 않을 뿐만아니라 토양오염이 우려되므로 유입수의 중금속 발생원을 추적, 제거하는 방안이 검토되어야 한다.
