Leaking underground storage tanks are a major source of groundwater contamination by petroleum hydrocarbons. Aerobic bioremediation has been highly effective in the remediation of many fuel releases. However, Bioremediation of aromatic hydrocarbons in groundwater and sediments is ofen limited by the inability to provide sufficient oxygen to the contaminated zones due to the low water solubility of oxygen. Nitrate can also serve as an electron acceptor and results in anaerobic biodegradation of organic compounds via the processes of nitrate reduction and denitrification. Because nitrate is less expensive and more soluble than oxygen. it may be more economical to restore fuel-contaminated aquifers using nitrate rather than oxygen. And denitrifying bacteria are commonly found in the subsurface and in association with contaminated aquifer materials. These studies have shown that BTEX and MTBE can be degraded by the nitrate-amended microcosms under aerobic and anaerobic conditons. Biodegradation of the toluene and ethylbenzne compounds occurred very quickly under denitrifying conditions. MTBE, benzene and p-xylene were recalcitrant under denitrifying conditions in this study, But finally Biodegradaton was observed for all of the test compounds.

질소함유 폐수를 생물학적으로 효과적으로 처리하기 위한 전 단계로서 탈질 균을 분리하여 최종 선정된 균주의 분해특성을 조사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 분리된 5개 균주 가운데 DWS3가 세포성장과 질산성질소 제거율이 가장 우수하여 최종 분리 균주로 선정하였다. DWS3를 동정한 결과 Pseudomonas DWS로 명명하였다. 반 유동성 사면배지에 배양한 결과 녹색을 띠었으나, 탈질능을 갖는 균주의 활성에 따라 배지의 색이 녹색에서 암녹색으로 변환되었다. Pseudomonas DWS는 4시간 정도의 유도기를 거쳐 18시간에 최대 증식을 나타내었으며, 균의 생육속도와 비례하여 질산성질소의 제거율이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. Pseudomonas DWS의 온도별 특성은 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 성장과 탈질율이 99% 우수하게 나타났으나, 탈질균 성장에 적합한 초기 pH는 7∼8에서 질산성 질소가 99% 이상 거의 모두 제거되었다. Pseudomonas DWS는 질산성 질소 농도에 관계없이 9시간 이내에 배지의 질산성 질소가 약 50%가 제거되었으며, 18시간 경과 후 99% 이상 질산성 질소가 제거되었다. 따라서 Pseudomonas DWS는 질소화합물을 다량 포함된 하, 폐수의 생물학적 처리에 효과적으로 이용 될 수 있는 것으로 사료된다.

For the nitrate removal in recirculating aquaculture system, a denitrifying bacterium, Pseudomonas fluorescens, was isolated from municipal sewage and the cells were immobilized in modified-polyvinly alchol (PVA) gel beads. The immobilized cells in both the fixed-and fluidized-bed reactors showed 98% of denitrification efficiency with 6hr HRT, and the removal efficiency of total organic carbon (TOC) was above 90%. Form scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation, it was known that biofilm formed in fixed-bed reactor was thicker than that formed in fluidized-bed reactor as operation time passed.

본 연구에서는 하수처리장 반송라인으로부터 얻은 혼합미생물을 사용하여 실험실에서 회분식 실험을 실행하였으며, 산소가 제한되는 유류 오염지역 내에서의 질산염 전자수용체를 이용한 탈질 박테리아의 질산염 이용 평가와 이에 따른, 현장 적용 타당성을 검토하는데 있다. 미생물은 톨루엔(toluene)을 탄소원으로 하고 질산염을 에너지원으로 이용하는 균주로 우점화한 혼합미생물(mixed culture)을 배양하여 실험에 사용하였다. 본 실험을 통해 유류에 의해 오염된 토양의 혐기성 지역에서의전자수용체로 질산염이 존재한다면, 토착미생물에 의한 분해가 느리지만, 발생될 수 있음을 추정할 수 있었다. 또한 질산염의 유무에 따른 BTEX와 MTBE의 혼합기질의 분해 특성 및 부산물을 살펴볼 수 있었다.

일반적으로 지하수환경은 세균의 수가 적기 때문에 세균의 핵산을 추출하기 위해서는 지하수 시료의 여과를 통하여 대량의 세균을 획득하는 것이 우선적으로 요구되어왔다. 그러나 이러한 여과법은 많은 시간과 인력의 낭비 뿐만 아니라 실험 과정의 특수성으로 인하여 오염의 위험성이 높다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 구아니딘 열탕법을 이용하여 소량의 지하수 시료로부터 핵산증폭실험에 적용할 수 있는 충분한 양의 핵산의 추출을 시도하였다. 지하수 시료는 서울시 내의 질소화합물 요염지역, 오염 예상지역, 청정지역으로 구분하여 각각 2개의 정점을 선별하여 총 6개의 정점으로부터 채수하였다. 구아니딘 열탕법을 이용하여 얻은 핵산으로 지하수에서 탈질화세균의 존재 여부를 검정한 결과 청정지역을 제외한 4개의 정점에서 탈질화 세균의 존재를 확인하였다.

An autotrophic denitrification reactor (ADR-l) and a heterotrophic denitrification reactor (HDR-2) were operated to remove nitrate and nitrite in an anoxic environment in raw sewage. The $NO_3$-N removal rate of ADR-l was shown to range from 52.8% to 78.7%, which was higher than the $NO_3$-N removal rate of HDR-2. Specific denitrification rates (SDNR) of ADR-l and HDR-2 were 3.0 to 4.0 and 1.1 to $1.2\;mgNO_3$-N/gVSS/h, respectively. From results of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of the 16S rRNA gene, Aquaspirillum metamorphum, Alcaligenes defragrans, and Azoarcus sp. were $\beta$-Proteobacteria that are affiliated with denitritying bacteria in the ADR-l. Specifically, Thiobacillus denitrificans was detected as an autotrophic denitrification bacteria. In HDR-2, the $\beta$-Proteobacteria such as Denitritying-Fe-oxidizing bacteria, Alcaligenes defragrans, Acidovorax sp., Azoarcus denitrificans, and Aquaspirillum metamorphum were the main bacteria related to denitrifying bacteria. The $\beta$-and $\alpha$-Proteobacteria were the important bacterial groups in ADR-l, whereas the $\beta$-Proteobacteria were the main bacterial group in HDR-2 based on results of fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). The number of Thiobacillus denitrificans increased in ADR-l during the operation period but not in HRD-2. Overall, the data presented here demonstrate that many heterotrophic denitritying bacteria coexisted with autotrophic denitrifying bacteria such as Thiobacillus denitrificans for nitrate removal in ADR-l. On the other hand, only heterotrophic denitritying bacteria were identified as dominant bacterial groups in HDR-2. Our research may provide a foundation for the complete nitrate removal in raw sewage of low-COD concentration under anoxic condition without any external organic carbon or the requirement of post-treatment.

Molecular and cultivation techniques were used to characterize the bacterial communities of biobead reactor biofilms in a sewage treatment plant to which an Aerated Up-Flow Biobead process was applied. With this biobead process, the monthly average values of various chemical parameters in the effluent were generally kept under the regulation limits of the effluent quality of the sewage treatment plant during the operation period. Most probable number (MPN) analysis revealed that the population of denitrifying bacteria was abundant in the biobead #1 reactor, denitrifying and nitrifying bacteria coexisted in the biobead #2 reactor, and nitrifying bacteria prevailed over denitrifying bacteria in the biobead #3 reactor. The results of the MPN test suggested that the biobead #2 reactor was a transition zone leading to acclimated nitrifying biofilms in the biobead #3 reactor. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rDNA sequences cloned from biofilms showed that the biobead #1 reactor, which received a high organic loading rate, had much diverse microorganisms, whereas the biobead #2 and #3 reactors were dominated by the members of Proteobacteria. DGGE analysis with the ammonia monooxygenase (amoA) gene supported the observation from the MPN test that the biofilms of September were fully developed and specialized for nitrification in the biobead reactor #3. All of the DNA sequences of the amoA DGGE bands were very similar to the sequence of the amoA gene of Nitrosomonas species, the presence of which is typical in the biological aerated filters. The results of this study showed that organic and inorganic nutrients were efficiently removed by both denitrifying microbial populations in the anaerobic tank and heterotrophic and nitrifying bacterial biofilms well-formed in the three functional biobead reactors in the Aerated Up-Flow Biobead process.
