본 연구는 미세기포를 이용하여 하천 및 호수의 퇴적물 내 영양염류 제어 가능성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 실제 호수에서 퇴적물을 채취하여 용출 특성 실험 및 기포를 이용한 퇴적물 및 영양염류 제거 실험을 수행하였다. 연구에 사용된 퇴적물의 입도분석 결과, 점토와 실트(<0.075 mm)비율은 약 7.7%, 모래(0.075~4.75 mm)는 약 67.8%, 자갈은(${\geq}4.75mm$) 약 24.5%로 나타났다. 총질소(T-N), 총인 (T-P), 강열감량은 각각 2,790~3,260 mg/kg, 261~311 mg/kg, 4.1~9.6%로 나타났다. 퇴적물의 입도별 T-N과 T-P을 분석한 결과, 입도가 클수록 퇴적물의 T-N와 T-P 함량은 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 이는 입도가 클수록 비표면적이 작아져 흡착되는 오염물질량이 줄어들기 때문으로 판단된다. 기포의 특성에 따른 퇴적물의 제거효율을 분석한 결과, 압력 6기압, 순환률 30%, 응집제 주입량 15 ppm의 조건으로 실험을 수행하였을 때 퇴적물의 제거율이 19.9%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 이 때의 T-N, T-P의 제거효율도 21.4, 22.6%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 운전조건을 고정시키고 기포 주입횟수를 증가시키면서 T-N과 T-P의 제거효율을 살펴본 결과, 주입횟수 2회까지 T-N과 T-P의 제거효율은 높았으나, 3회부터는 제거효율이 낮아짐에 따라 주입횟수가 증가하더라도 제거효율에는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았다. 그리고 미세입자가 제거된 퇴적물의 영양염류 용출량은 미세입자를 제거하지 않은 퇴적물의 용출량보다 약 20.1~64.3% 정도 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 이를 통해 미세기포를 퇴적물에 반복적으로 주입하는 방안은 퇴적물 및 퇴적물에서의 영양염류 용출을 제어하는 효과적인 방안으로써 가능성이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

A new testing method to evaluate the deposition potential of white pitch was developed. The new method involves depositing the potential white pitch particles on the air bubble covered plastic film in the pitch deposit tester (PDT) developed by KRICT and analysing the deposited area of white pitch using an image analyzer. In addition, the effect of two important factors (pH and calcium hardness) on white pitch deposition potential was elucidated. When pH of the coated broke stock was increased from neutral to alkali or the calcium hardness of the stock was decreased, the pitch deposit area was decreased, implying that these two factors have to be controlled during the evaluation of pitch deposition potential. It was found that hydrophobicity of the surface of latex binding films repulped is a key factor influencing white pitch deposition.

A performance test facility for turbopump inducer cavitation was developed and the inducer cavitation performance tests were performed. Major components of the performance test facility are driving unit, test section, piping, water tank, and data acquisition and control system. The maximum of testing capability of this facility are as follows: flow rate - 30kg/s; pressure - 13 bar; rotational speed 10,000rpm. This cavitation test facility is characterized by the booster pump installed at the outlet of the pump that extends the flow rate range, and by the pressure control system that makes the line pressure down to vapor pressure. The vacuum pump is used for removing the dissolved air in the water as well as the line pressure. Performance tests were carried out and preliminary data of test model inducer were obtained. The cavitation performance test and cavitation bubble flow visualization were also made. This facility is originally designed for turbopump inducer performance test and cavitation test. However it can be applied to the pump impeller performance test in the future with little modification.

A study on the enhancement of environmental durability of EPDM rubber materials for the aerator membrane was performed using a butyl rubber as a modifier. A conventional EPDM rubber formulation was evaluated as having about 26.0 wt% or more oil content from the chloroform immersion test. These oils would be gradually and continuously deleted from the aerator membrane when directly exposed to a waste-water or chemically corrosive fluids, making the membrane less flexible and the performance worse. To improve this, a butyl rubber (IIR) was utilized as the modifier for a low-ENB type of EPDM rubber formulation with low-oil content. The environmental durability of the IIR-modified EPDM rubber material was expected to be greatly enhanced compared to the conventional one. However, the mechanical and performance properties such as elongation, tensile strength, and air bubble size, etc. were still maintained as good as in the conventional one. Furthermore, TGA analysis of the IIR-modified EPDM material showed that there would be partially compatible between IIR and EPDM. It also showed that the initial degradation temperature of the IIR-modified EPDM could be somewhat increased, exhibiting the enhanced compatibility among the components and, thereby, more enhanced environmental durability.

Loess, PAC, MACF and plants were applied to the control of the phytoplankton bloom in laboratory and in field, In field experiment using oil fence, 5ppm concentration of coagulant(PAC) was observed to be effective in controlling the cyanobacterial bloom, resulting in 90% removal of cyanobacteria and phytoplankton from the water column, hi case of Synedra sp., however, only 50% of biomass decreased with the same PAC concentration. MACF(micro-air bubble coagulation and floating), a kind of physicochemical method, was applied to the column of the Kyongan stream and resulted in over 80% chlorophyll a and 73.5% TP removal, Chlorophyll a and total phosphorus were effectively removed from water body when 2.0 g/L of loess with the particle radius of 125 ${\mu}m$ was inputted. In case of experiments involving plants, big cone pine, gingko, and pine needle were observed to be effective in restraining phytoplankton bloom at 0.5g/200ml level. During a field test done at Kyungan stream, where Microcystis heavily occurred, Pine needle and big cone pine were observed to be effective on suppressing algal growth.

Activated sludge sewage treatment processes are difficult to be controlled because of their complex and nonlinear behaviour, however, the control of the dissolved oxygen level in the reactors plays an important role in the operation of the facility. For this reason, this study is designed to present a system which accurately measures DO, MLSS, pH and ORP in the aeration tank to alleviate situations above and provide the automatization of a sewage treatment plant (STP) using new DO control system. The automatic control systems must be guaranteed the accuracy. Therefore, the proposed automatic DO control system in this study could be commercial applications in the aeration tanks by means of operating cost analysis and user-friendly for operation and maintenance. We could get accurate data from the lab tank which has water quality checker because there was no vortex and air bubble during the measurement process. Improvement of confidence in the lab tank enabled effective and automatic operation of sewage treatment plants so that operation costs and manpower could be saved. If this result is put in place in every sewage treatment plant nationwide for practical purposes, it is estimated to cost 18.5 million dollars in installing the lab tank and to save 9.8 million dollars in management cost a year, except for cost saved by automation.

A new testing method named pitch deposit tester (PDT) was developed by KRICT in order to evaluate the deposit potential of micro-stickies. The new method involves depositing the potential pitch particles on the air bubble covered plastic film set in the pitch deposit tester (PDT) and analysing the deposited area by an image analyzer. In this study, the effect of fixing agents on potential pitch deposition was elucidated. The effects of some fixing agents (polyamine and polyethyleneimine) on pitch control were investigated by the PDT test of 100% recycled newsprint stock. The study suggested that proper use of the PEI can lead to better pitch control than that of polyamine. The efficiency of novel screening method using the PDT and retention and drainage analyser (RDA) for fixing agents in terms of retention and deposit contamination could be confirmed by above mentioned results.

Compared with the sludge from gravity sedimentation, it is difficult for operations to settle the sludge occurred from dissolved-air-flotation (DAF). Even though there are some problems in treating DAF sludge with conventional gravity thickeners, those has been used until now. In this study, Solid Flux theory for gravity thickening was applied to the Solid Flux of DAF sludge through flotation in order to develop new methodology for treatment of DAF sludge. Also, characteristics of DAF sludge were investigated. From the experiment results, it was revealed that the higher the polymer dosage, at fixed the solid concentration, the greater the rising velocity becomes. When we applied solid flux theory, the relationship, which is similar to that of gravity thickening, has been achieved. Also, we could find the proper polymer dosage from the rising velocity is about 50 mg/L. Consequently, the limiting solid flux can be derived from the relationship between the total solid flux and the withdrawal velocity of DAF sludge. Furthermore, the factors, such as solid concentrations, bubble volume, pH, zeta potential, and temperature, have effects on the flotation and sedimentation for DAF sludge treatment.
