The bacterial diversity inherent to the biofilm community structure of a modified rotating biological contactor wastewater treatment process, referred to as the Rotating Activated Bacillus Contactor (RABC) process, was characterized in this study, via both culture-dependent and culture-independent methods. On the basis of culture-dependent methods, Bacillus sp. were found to exist in large numbers on the biofilm (6.5% of the heterotrophic bacteria) and the microbial composition of the biofilms was quite simple. Only three phyla were identified-namely, the Proteobacteria, the Actinobacteria (High G+C Gram-positive bacteria), and the Firmicutes (Low G+C Gram-positive bacteria). The culture-independent partial 16S rDNA sequence analysis revealed a considerably more diverse microbial composition within the biofilms. A total of eight phyla were recovered in this case, three of which were major groups: the Firmicutes (43.9%), the Proteobacteria (28.6%), and the Bacteroidetes (17.6%). The remaining five phyla were minor groups: the Planctomycetes (4.4%), the Chlorobi (2.2%), the Actinobacteria (1.1%), the Nitrospirae (1.1%), and the Verrucomicrobia (1.1%). The two most abundant genera detected were the endospore-forming bacteria (31.8%), Clostridium and Bacillus, both of which are members of the Firmicutes phylum. This finding indicates that these endospore-forming bacteria successfully colonized and dominated the RABC process biofilms. Many of the colonies or clones recovered from the biofilms evidenced significantly high homology in the 16S rDNA sequences of bacteria stored in databases associated with advanced wastewater treatment capabilities, including nitrification and denitrification, phosphorus accumulation, the removal of volatile odors, and the removal of chlorohydrocarbons or heavy metals. The microbial community structures observed in the biofilms were found to correlate nicely with the enhanced performance of advanced wastewater treatment protocols.

BAC 공정 운전초기부터 부착 박테리아들의 생체량이 정상상태(steady-state)에 도달한 이후까지 $BDOC_{total/rapid/slow}$ 제거율의 변화와 DGGE와 ATP 분석을 통하여 부착 박테리아들의 군집과 생체량을 평가하였다. 용존 유기물질 제거율 평가에 따른 BAC 공정의 정상상태 도달 여부 평가결과를 보면 DOC의 경우 운전 bed volume 27,500 부근에서 BAC 공정이 정상상태에 도달하였고, $BDOC_{rapid}$와 $BDOC_{total/slow}$의 경우는 각각 운전 bed volume 15,000 부근과 32,000 부근에서 정상상태에 도달하였다. BAC 공정의 운전기간 증가에 따른 HPC 및 ATP 농도 분석을 통한 부착 박테리아들의 생체량 평가결과 bed volume 22,500 이후로 거의 일정한 생체량을 유지하였으며, 이 때 HPC와 ATP 농도는 각각 $3.3{\times}10^8$ cells/g 및 $2.14{\mu}g/g$ 정도로 나타났다. DGGE를 이용하여 운전기간 증가에 따른 BAC 부착 박테리아들의 군집분석 결과 운전초기(bed volume 8,916)의 경우 분석가능한 DGGE band 개수가 5개였으나 운전기간 증가에 따라 분석가능한 DGGE band 개수는 최대 11개로 증가하였다. 또한, DGGE를 이용한 박테리아 군집분석 결과 BAC 운전기간의 증가에 따라 다양한 박테리아 그룹들이 존재하였고, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Acinetobacteria와 유사한 uncultured bacterium, uncultured Novosphingobium sp. 및 Flavobacterium frigidarium은 운전초기 단계부터 지속적으로 부착 박테리아 군집을 형성하였고, 전체적으로 Proteobacteria 그룹이 비교적 높은 비율로 우점하였다.

It was examined carefully that the bacterial die-off between Chlorella vulgaris and E. coli. W3110 was tested through adding TOC (total organic carbon) with the lab-scaled continuous river water flow system (CRWFS). Artificial synthetic wastewater was applied at two levels of organic carbon concentration; 1,335 mg/l in treatment type 1 and 267 mg/l in type 2. In both types, the population densities of Chlorella vulgaris were similar in a maximum 8.25 ${\times}$ 10$\^$6/ cells/ml (type 1) and 6.925 ${\times}$ 10$\^$6/ cells/ml (type 2). The maximum densities of E. coli. W3110 were 2.0 ${\times}$ 10$\^$8/ colony forming unit (CFU)/ml in type 1 and 3.9 ${\times}$ 10$\^$8/ CFU/ml in type 2. The densities increased for 11 days in type 1 and 4 days in type 2, then decreased rapidly till the 35th day, then slightly increased again. This trend was prominent in type 2. It implied that a wider range of nutrients was required in the growth of heterotrophic bacteria in type 2 than in type 1. We could not expect successful bacterial die-off if the wastewater retention time was not furnished sufficiently.

This study assessed the levels of water qualities and microbials contamination of inland olive flounder farms in Jeju in the summers from 2015 to 2017. Three farms (A-C) located in a concentrated area using mixing coastal seawater and underground seawater and one farm (D) located in an independent area using only coastal seawater were selected. Total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) reached a maximum of 0.898 ± 1.024 mg/L as N in the coastal seawater of A-C, which was close to the limit of the water quality management goal of the fish farm. TAN in the influent from A-C was up to three times higher than that of D, so that the discharged water did not spread to a wide range area along the coast and continued to affect the influent. TAN of the effluent in A-C increased by 2.7-4.6 times compared to the influent, resulting in serious self-pollution in the flounder farm. Heterotrophic marine bacteria in the influent of A-C was about 600 times higher than D, and the discharge of A-C was increased by about 30 times compared to the influent.

본 연구에서는 염소 소독제를 함유한 수돗물을 수리학적 체류시간 2시간 수준으로 공급한 모델 상수관망에서 형성된 초기 생물막의 생장에 대해 연구하였다. PVC slide 표면에 형성된 세균 생물막의 비생장률(specific growth rate, ${\mu}$)은 총세균수와 종속영양세균수 기준으로 각각 $0.14{\pm}0.09day^{-1}$와 $0.16{\pm}0.08day^{-1}$로 측정되었으며, 생물막 형성 정도는 실험 개시 10일 후에 각각 $3.1{\times}10^4cells/cm^2$와 $6.6{\times}10^3CFU/cm^2$에 이르렀다. Bulk-phase 세균에 비해 훨씬 높은 생물막 형성 세균의 비생장률(${\mu}$)은 관망내에서 생물막 세균의 증식이 세균 재생장의 주된 요인으로 작용함을 의미하였다. 분리 배양된 생물막 균주들은 acetate 농도를 달리한 생장배지에서 얻어진 Monod 모델에서 특징적인 ${\mu}_{max}$와 $K_S$값을 보여주었다. 가장 낮은 ${\mu}_{max}$값을 보여준 Methylobacterium 균주는 느린 생장을 통해 염소 소독제 처리(0.5 mg/L, 10분간)에 대해 높은 내성을 나타내었다. 반포화상수(half-saturation constant) $K_S$값은 Sphingomonas 균주에서 다른 분리 균주들에 비해 100배 정도 낮게 측정되어 기질친화도가 매우 높게 나타났다. 이는 수돗물과 같이 영양물질의 농도가 매우 낮은 조건에서 생존할 수 있도록 적응된 절대 빈영양성 세균의 특징으로 판단된다. 비록 특징적인 ${\mu}_{max}$와 $K_S$값을 보이는 균주 만을 대상으로 수행되었지만, 이상의 결과는 상수관망에서 초기에 형성되는 복합 세균종으로 구성된 생물막에 대한 이해와 조절에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

A new technology for advanced wastewater treatment was developed using a modified Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC) process, named as Rotating Activated Bacillus Contactor (RABC) process that utilizes Bacillus sp., the facultatively anaerobic or activated microaerophilic bacteria on multiple-stage reticular rotating carriers, as a predominant species. The RABC process for a municipal wastewater with relatively low concentrations of organics, nitrogen, and phosphorus showed stable and high removal efficiencies, less than $BOD_5$ 10 mg/L, T-N 15 mg/L, and T-P 1.5 mg/L in final effluent. The performance load of RABC process was shown to be $1.23kg{\cdot}BOD/m^2{\cdot}day$ for the first stage (average $0.31kg{\cdot}BOD/m^2{\cdot}day$ for the total stages) based on both removed BOD and converted disc area corresponding to the reticular one. The sludge produced in the RABC process is characterized by low generation rate (about $0.18kg{\cdot}MLSS/kg{\cdot}BOD$) and excellent settleability. The number ratio of Bacillus ($2.4{\times}10^6CFU/ml$) to heterotrophic bacteria ($3.6{\times}10^7CFU/ml$) inhabiting in the biofilms of the RABC process was 6.7 %, indicating that Bacillus sp. was a predominant species in the biofilms. The RABC process with reticular rotating carriers showed its excellent performance for the advanced wastewater treatment without any offensive odor problem due to organic overloading.

Plant growth promoting (PGP) hormones, which are produced in a small quantity by bacteria, affect in plant growth and development. PGPs play an important role on the crop productivity in agricultural field. In this study, a photosynthetic bacterial strain producing the PGP was isolated from paddy soil. Bacterial isolate was gram negative, rod-shaped and motility positive. From the 16s rRNA gene sequence analysis, the isolate was identified as Rhodobacter capsulatus PS-2. The mass cultivation of R. capsulatus PS-2 was optimized by considering of the carbon, nitrogen and inorganic salt sources. Optimal medium composition was determined as Na-succinate 4.5 g, yeast extract 5 g, $K_2HPO_4$ 1 g, $MgSO_4$ 5 g, per liter. From the result of 500 L fermentation for 2 days using the optimal medium, the viable cells were $8.7{\times}10^9cfu/mL$. R. capsulatus PS-2 strain produced the carotenoid and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). The carotenoid extraction and quantitative analysis were performed by HCl-assisting method. Total carotenoid contents from R. capsulatus PS-2 culture broth were measured as $7.02{\pm}0.04$ and $6.93{\pm}0.05mg/L$ under photoheterotrophic and chemoheterotrophic conditions, respectively. To measure the productivity of IAA, colorimetric method was employed using Salkowski reagent at optical density 535 nm. The results showed that the highest content of IAA was $197.44{\pm}5.92mg/L$ in the optimal medium supplemented with 0.3% tryptophan.

We evaluated the effects of prebiotic (mannan oligosaccharides, Mos) and probiotic diet supplements on growth performance, innate immunity, antioxidant activity, and intestinal changes in the microbial flora of red seabream Pagrus major. A basal diet (Con) was formulated to meet the nutrient requirement of red seabream. The dietary starch in Con was replaced with 0.6% Mos, Lactobacillus plantarum, Bacillus subtilis, B. licheniformis and probiotic mixture (labeled as Mos, Pro-LP, Pro-BS, Pro-BL and Pro-Mix, respectively). We stocked 450 fish in 18 polypropylene tanks (400 L) in triplicate groups per dietary treatment. The fish were fed one of the diets twice (08:30, 18:30 h) a day for 63 days. Lysozyme activity was significantly higher in all the supplemented groups than that of the Con group. The immunoglobulin level of Pro-Mix, anti-protease activity of Pro-BL, and glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase activity of Pro-BS, Pro-BL and Pro-Mix groups were significantly higher than those of the Con group. The ratio of total Vibrio/heterotrophic marine bacteria counts was significantly lower in Pro-LP, Pro-BL and Pro-Mix groups than that of the Con group. Therefore, dietary supplementation of Mos and probiotics to improves immune response and antioxidant enzyme activity and inhibits Vibrio bacteria in the intestine.
