2007년을 기준으로 울산에 위치한 사업장으로부터 발생된 유기성 폐수슬러지의 94%가 해양처분되었다. 유기성 슬러지의 해양처분은 2012년에는 완전 금지될 예정이다. 그러나 아직까지 울산에 위치한 사업장으로 부터의 유기성 슬러지는 소각 이외에 다른 대안이 없는 실정이며, 현재 울산석유화학산업단지의 사업장들은 슬러지의 육상처리 및 처분기술의 확보가 매우 중요한 과제이다. 본 연구에서는 울산의 석유화학사업장 슬러지와 하수처리 슬러지를 연료로 활용하기 위해 건조슬러지와 탄화슬러지의 재료적 측면에 대한 평가를 실시하였다. 연구결과 저위발열량 3,000 kcal/kg이상을 초과하는 테레프탈산, BTX, 프로필렌, 화학섬유 등을 생산하는 사업장으로부터의 건조슬러지와 탄화슬러지는 연료로서의 가능성이 높지만 건조할 경우 2,100 kcal/kg 이하, 탄화할 경우 1,100 kcal/kg 이하인 좀 더 무기성분이 많은 펄프, 제지, 메틸아민, 아마이드 등을 생산하는 사업장의 폐수슬러지는 연료로서의 가치가 적은 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과 대부분의 슬러지들이 에너지 측면에 있어서 탄화보다는 건조가 더 좋은 결과를 보여주었다.

본 연구는 하수슬러지와 침출수 공정슬러지를 건조연료와 혼합하여 물리적 특성을 개선하고 악취를 저감하는 중성고화제를 개발하여 매립 복토재로 재활용하기 위한 연구이다. 슬러지와 건조연료의 배합비율(W/W)은 1:1이 적정하며 기계 혼합시험에서도 균질하게 혼합되었다. 슬러지는 건조연료와 혼합되면서 함수율과 점성은 저감되고, 입자와 입자사이에 공극이 생겨 통기성을 가지게 된 것을 알 수 있었다. 다양한 혼합시험과 악취시험 결과, 중성고화제는 악취저감에 효과적인 것을 알 수 있었으며, 주 원료는 하수슬러지 소각재로 폐기물의 재활용과 생산비용에 있어 경쟁력이 있다. 중성고화제를 적용하여 고화복토재를 생산하면 압축강도 등 물리적인 특성이 향상되고 복토재 사용 품질기준도 만족하다. 또한, 알칼리성 고화복토제 대비 복합악취는 1/3 (3,000 → 1,000), 고화제 사용량은 1/8 (50% → 6%)로 낮춘다는 것이 입증되었다. 그리고 이것은 토사와 혼합하여 식물재배를 위한 토지개량제로 활용이 가능함을 입증하기 위해 추가 연구가 진행되고 있다.

본 연구는 산업단지의 화학제품제조업 및 석유화학제품제조업에서 발생하는 유기성슬러지에 대하여 삼성분, 원소조성, 발열량, 열중량 분석 및 연소시험을 실시하였다. 삼성분 분석 결과 "화합물 및 화학제품 제조업"의 평균값은 수분함량 75.11, 가연분 17.42, 불연분 7.45%로 나타났으며, "코크스, 석유 정제품 및 핵연료 제조업"의 경우 평균값은 수분함량 77.54, 가연분 18.25, 불연분 4.22%로 나타났다. 원소분석 결과 평균값은 "화합물 및 화학제품 제조업"의 경우 C 33.06, H 4.34, O 24.81, N 5.18, S 0.72wt%로 나타났으며, "코크스, 석유 정제품 및 핵연료 제조업"의 경우 C 36.58, H 4.74, O 26.79, N 5.09, S 0.49wt%로 나타났다. 열중량분석 결과, B사에서 배출되는 슬러지는 $700^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 그리고 F와 N사에서 배출되는 슬러지는 $600^{\circ}C$ 정도의 온도에서도 연소가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 연소테스트 결과, 산화반응과 동시에 열분해 반응으로 고농도의 일산화탄소가 배출되므로 이로 인한 로의 국부과열이나 파손현상에 대한 기초자료를 얻는데 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

London Convention on the prevention of marine pollution by dumping of wastes and other matter prohibits the deliberate disposal of paper mill sludges at sea. In order to explore the alternative plan on the prohibition of sludge disposal at sea, the biodegradable seedling pot was developed by mixing the sludge with old newspaper (ONP) in appropriate mixing ratios. The C/N ratio of the mixed sludge was below 20, leading to rapid deterioration of the organic matters composing the seedling pot. The increased ONP contents in the seedling pot resulted in the increase of pot thickness and thereafter in the decrease of pot density. Cellulose fibers in ONP promoted water absorption of the pot but AKD addition helped the seedling pot to repel water during raising seedling. Breaking length and burst strength of the seedling pot were improved by addition of wet strength additives but air permeability was a little diminished. Biodegradable rate of the seedling pot in a soil was accelerated by the attack of soil microbes at the beginning, and finally the pot was completely degraded in 150 days in a soil.

This research was performed to evaluate heavy metal leaching characteristics of the sludge from paper mill process with sintering temperature. Heavy metal leaching of the sludge was characterized with Korean Leaching Test and Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure. The test sludge was composed of 70.72% of moisture, 9.5% of volatile solids and 9.76% of fixed solids. As a result of XRF analysis, Fe was the highest inorganic element in approximately 83%, which implies the recycling possibility of the sludge in reuse of Fenton chemicals and artificial lightweight aggregate. Leaching of heavy metals from sintered sludge was lower than the dry ones. However, there was no significant difference in leaching characteristics between the sludges sintered at $350^{\circ}C$ and $650^{\circ}C$. Zn and Fe were leached more greatly in TCLP and KLT methods respectively.

It is necessary to investigate methods for improvement by diagnosing sludge settling characteristics on inflow of slurry to thickener. The results of the settling tests are correlated to determine zone settling velocities at the various sludge solids concentrations. Conditioning of WTP residuals is generally done by either chemical or physical treatment. The settling test was conducted with 1m columns dosing polymer to WTP residuals at various solids concentration. The estimated results for dosing to WTP residuals for a sludge of 2,100 ~ 16,012 mg/L solids concentration were the zone settling velocities of 48.38 ~ 6.8 m/day, supernatant solid concentration of 3.2 ~ 19 mg/L and solid flux of $101.6{\sim}317.61kg/m^3{\cdot}day$. The values for non-polymer treatment were the zone settling velocities of 28.37 ~ 0.12 m/day, supernatent solid concentration of 8.5 ~ 108 mg/L and solid flux of $59.58{\sim}1.92kg/m^2{\cdot}day$. The limiting solid flux value by Yoshioka methods was $4.0kg\;TS/m^3{\cdot}day$ for Non-polymer and $228.0kg\;TS/m^3{\cdot}day$ for dosing polymer. These results are to indicate a possibility of improvement on the thickening characteristics and the quality of supernatant as increasing the settling velocities by dosing polymer to WTP residuals.

Three types of sludges including printing paper, newsprint and tissue paper were prepared at 5% concentration for filtration-expression operations. Filtration-expression characteristics of sludge were measured in different pressure and wastepaper powder dosage. Specific filtration resistance and porosity were calculated with theoretical formula. Higher pressure increased the progresses of filtration and expression while it decreased porosity. The addition of 5% wastepaper powder more accelerated the progresses of filtration and expression than that of 10% wastepaper powder. The lowest porosity value was also measured at 5% dosage of wastepaper powder. The decrease of porosity implied the decrease of moisture content in cake. The results indicated that dewatering of sludge was efficient in high pressure and 5% dosage of wastepaper powder.

The power characteristics of the Mg-Air fuel cell were investigated with regard to variation of load conditions. The types of load current using for the Mg-Air fuel cell with 10% NaCl electrolyte were step type, ramp type and pulse type. It was found that transient phenomena occurred in the step current load, which is due to activate of the oxidation-reduction reaction process. And the transient time increase with the load current increase. In the load current of ramp type, the slop of voltage drop increased with current load slop ${\alpha}$ increase. The load voltage and power decreased according to the pulse period of load current decrease were attributed to the metal sludges.

In order to improve the water quality of stream water, the facilities equipped with rope media filter have been examined as a part of national projects. This work may provide design and operating parameters from 2 years monitoring for 2 streams. Depending on the characteristics of streams, the flow rate into the facilities were shown different, where K stream was almost the same and D stream was less than 25% of design flow rate. Although the clogging of filter media was not observed during the operation, the removal of accumulated sludges was required for the stable operation. The removal efficiencies of BOD, SS, T-N and T-P for D stream were 60.5%, 80.1%, 25.2% and 36.2%, respectively. The most important factor for the construction of stream water purification facilities was recommended for the selection of proper sites.

Enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) behavior and microbial characteristics in the anaerobic-aerobic SBR (PAO SBR) and the anaerobic-anoxic SBR (DPAO SBR) were examined in this research. For 392 days of operation, both SBRs have exhibited a good EBPR (or denitrifying EBPR) performance. $P_{release}/P_{influent}$ ratio was highest in both reactors after the stabilization, while the efficiency of phosphorus removal was decreased since the sludge granulation has been visually observed within the reactor. The comparative analysis of Pyrosequencing-based microbial population between PAO and DPAO sludges showed indirectly that Dechloromonas spp. could utilize $O_2$ and $NO_3{^-}-N$ as an electron acceptor and Accumulibacter phosphatis use only $O_2$ in EBPR system. Also, we concluded that Thauera spp. as a denitrifier contribute significantly to the anoxic phosphorus removal in the DPAO system.
