In this paper, changes of the coliform bacteria were investigated when aquatic plant pond was used for separating algal particles from waste stabilization ponds(WSPs). Three different types of integrated natural systems were operated. It was found that there were no significant interferences for the disinfection efficiency of two integrated systems (WSPs coupled with water hyacinth ponds) used for treating domestic sewage and upgrading the secondary effluent as well. However, when constructed wetland (CW) was combined with the shallow algal ponds and used for the secondary effluent, it seriously interfered with the disinfection efficiency due to the regrowth and/or after-growth of the coliform bacteria, which can readily metabolize the amino acids and sugars leached from plants. In order to find out the primary disinfection parameters, several sets of the batch test were run. It was found that sunlight is the most predominant factor for the coliform decay. During the night, algal toxicity partly supports the decay but during the day, deteriorates it by attenuating the sunlight. The pH in the range of 4 to 10 did not affect the decay in the dark.

본 논문은 호기-혐기 조건이 연속적으로 반복 운영되는 자연정화시스템의 질소제거에 관한여 연구하였다. 조류 광합성 활동을 극대화한 산화지(WSP: Waste Stabilization Pond)에서 호기조건을, 부레옥잠 잎과 줄기에 의해 태양광이 차단되어 산화지로부터 유입된 조류의 내호흡과 뿌리에 부착된 미생물 호흡에 의해 혐기조건이 형성되는 WHP(Water Hyacinth Pond)를 조합하여 운전하였다. Pilot plant는 2개 계열로 구성하여 운전하였다. 첫번째는 WHPs와 WSPs로 조합하였고, 두번째는 WSP와 질산화와 탈질화에 대한 식물의 효과를 평가하기 위해 대조반응조로 태양광을 차단한 반응조(DPs: Dark Ponds)를 조합하였다. 연구결과에 따르면 질소에 대한 전체적인 제거능력은 WSP-WHP에서 발휘되었으며 약 86%가 감소되었고 대조반응조 WSP-DP에서는 36%가 감소되었다. 대부분 질소는 WSP에서 질산화 된 후 WHP에서 탈질에 의해 제거되었다. 탈질이 원활히 수행될려면 외부탄소원이 필요한데 수생식물조 하부 수층에서 조류의 부패로 탄소원이 공급되었다. 그리고 WSP-WHP 시스템은 인 제거에도 매우 효과적이었다. WSP-WHP에서 인 제거율은 81%인 반면에 WSP-DPs에서는 단지 16%에 불과했다. 이들 두 시스템간의 인 제거율의 차이는 아마도 식물증식과 식물 뿌리에서 생산된 Extra-cellular 물질에 기인한다고 여겨지며 이러한 부분에 대해서는 향후 심도 있는 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

In general, livestock wastewater consists of many pollutants such as nitrogen, phosphorus, carbonic compounds and inorganic substances. Most carbonic and organic compounds are sufficiently removed by conventional secondary processes, but nitrogen, phosphorus and soluble inorganic compounds are little removed by traditional clarification process. These remained substances in wastewater, for instances, phosphorus and nitrogen are efficiently eliminated by advanced wastewater treatment or botanical removing process. Concentrations of $BOD_s$, SS, T-N and T-P in influent livestock wastewater used in this study were 126mg/l, 115mg/l, 45mg/l and 13mg/l, respectively. The hydraulic retention time(HRT) of wastewater was about 10 days in the pond packed with aquatic plants. A water-hyacinth and a water-dropwort were used as an experimental stuff plant. The removal ratios of nitrogen was 44.3% for the water-hyacinth and 40.2% for the water-dropwort. The removal efficiency of phosphorus in experimental ponds reached by 57.9% for the water-hyacinth and 58.5% for the water-dropwort for 10 days, respectively. Removal ratios of BODs and SS of livestock wastewater for 10 days were reached by 80.1%, 91.0% for he water-hyacinth, respectively. At the same condition, the removal ratios of BODs and SS were reached by 75.0%, 87.6% for the water-dropwort, respectively.
