In this research traditional Buddhist dietary life style was studied as an alternative for both saving water and decreasing water pollution from household. A traditional dietary life style for the Buddhist monks, called Balwoo Gongyang, and its modernized one for citizens, called Dish Gongyang were examined with water use amount, wastewater quality and pollutant loading rate, and were compared with the kitchen wastewater from household. And several types of natural detergent were also examined to compare their effect on the wastewater quality and pollutant loading rate. This research was carried out using the wastewater from Balwoo and Dish Gongyang in J building located in Seoul. Wastewater generation from Balwoo Gongyang that was about $1.0{\ell}$/capita/day was very low compare to that from dish washing in normal household($32.6{\ell}$/capita/day). In case of Dish Gongyang, water generation was 1.8 times higher than that from Balwoo Gongyang, but it was just 1/19.2 of normal household. When the wastewater quality of Balwoo Gongyang was compared with the kitchen wastewater of normal household, SS was 1/16($15mg/{\ell}$), COD was 1/7($22.1mg/{\ell}$), BOD was 1/9($24.1mg/{\ell}$) and T-N was 1/16($1.7mg/{\ell}$). Pollutant loading rate from Balwoo Gongyang was very low, COD 18.0 mg/capita/day, SS 12.3 mg/capita/day and it was 1/290, 1/639 of that from dish washing wastewater from normal household, respectively. Pollutant loading rate from Dish Gongyang was also low 1/13(SS)~1/144(TN) compared to dish washing wastewater from normal household. As a natural detergent, used water from washing rice showed very low pollutant loading rate. It was concluded that Dish Gongyang that was a modernized and simplified dietary life style of Balwoo Gongyang, was very eco-friendly. Especially when it was combined with natural detergents using by-product from cooking process, its effect on the water pollution was very low.

Mackerel water-soluble protein fraction produced by washing the mackerel meat were concentrated by isoelectric point shifting precipitation process, and the concentrates were utilized as the alternative feed of fish meal. In the 1st aquaculture diet experiment for Israel common carp, the feed conversion ratio decreased in proportion to the rise in the percentage of the recovered protein containing a residual lipid, which was added to the fish meal. It was supposed that the low feed efficiency was because of lipid oxidation in the recovered protein fraction. In addition, 2nd aquaculture diet experiment for Israel common carp was conducted after removing the oxidized lipid in the recovered protein fish meal. When a portion of the fish meal was substituted by the recovered protein devoid of the residual lipid, the feed conversion ratio increased in proportion to the amount of the substitute being added to the fish meal. Therefore, the recovered protein fraction of the mackerel washing wastewater from mackerel processing factory could be used as the alternative feed of fish meal.

A lot of water soluble proteins and lipids are released from minced mackerel meat and lost into the washing waste during the leaching process of Kamaboko or surimi manufacture. The removed proteins and lipids are not only an edible things but also a big burden for treating the wastewater. In order to recover the proteins from the effluent and to use as food stuff, the "pH-shifting" treatment, a modified isoelectric point precipitation method, was tried. This method is based on a myogen-aggregation phenomenon, which occurs when a solution of sarcoplasmic proteins is acidified or alkalified beyond the critical pH zone of 2∼3 or 12∼13 respectively and then neutralized. The maximum amount of precipitation was obtained by shifting the pH of the wastewater from original pH to isoelectric point (pH 4) or alkali pH 12 and then changing to neutral pH. The precipitates were easily collected by filteration or centrifuging at 10,000rpm. The oils which were only floating in the washing wastewater are easily recovered by seperating with oil separator after pouring. The recovered proteins were slightly denaturated during this pH shifting precipitation process, while the composition of amino acids was good balance as a food.

A combination of the submerged membrane activated-sludge bioreactor(SMABR) equipped with non-woven fabric filter and oyster-zeolite (OZ) packed-bed adsorption column was studied to evaluate the advanced tertiary treatment of nitrogen and phosphorous. The non-woven filter module was submerged in the MBR and aeration was operated intermittently for an optimal wastewater treatment performance. Artificial wastewater with $COD_{Cr}$ of 220 mg/L, total nitrogen (T-N) of 45 mg/L, and total phosphorous (T-P) of 6 mg/L was used in this study. MLSS was maintained about $4,000\;{\sim}\;5,000\;mg/L$ throughout the experiments. The experiments were performed for 100-day with periodic non-woven filter washing. The results showed that $COD_{Cr}$ could be effectively removed in SMABR alone with over 94% removal efficiency. However, T-N and T-P removal efficiency was slightly lower than expected with SMABR alone. The permeate from SMABR was then passed through the OZ column for tertiary nutrients removal. The final effluent analysis confirmed that nutrients could be additionally removed resulting in over 87% and 46% removal efficiencies for T-N and T-P, respectively. The results of this study suggest that the waste oyster-shell can be effectively reclaimed as an adsorbent in advanced tertiary wastewater treatment processes in combination with SMABR equipped with non-woven fabric filter.

Biomass of non-viable and dried brown marine algae Ecklonia radiata Turn. was used to examine Its cadmium uptake capability. Twelve different pretreatments on the algal biomass were prepared. Among these pretreatments, the algal biomass, which treated with 0.1 M NaOH and kept in water. bath (100$\^{C}$, 18 h) followed by washing with distilled water and squeezing, showed the highest amount of cadmium uptake as 1634 $\pm$ 195 mg/g dry biomass at pH 4.0 and 50$\^{C}$. Adsorption temperatures and pH levels played some Important role In cadmium uptake. However, cadmium uptake decreased dramatically at a lower pH than 4.0. Freundlich adsorption isotherm showed potent cadmium uptake capacity of the non-viable biomass. Pretreatments on the non-viable algal biomass shown in this study nay enhance the Eadmium removal in the industrial wastewater.

When fish meat is washed for the processing of surimi, about 50ff of lipid in the fish meat is removed from the fish meat to the effluent. The removed lipid was easily recovered by centrifugation or filteration of wastewater washed fish meat. Then, the recovered lipid was utilized as a material of mayonnaise sauce processing. The major fatty acids in the recovered lipids are $C_{16:0},\;C_{18:0},\;C_{16:1},\;C_{20:5},\;and\;C_{22:6}$ Polyenoic fatty acids were composed of $33.6\%$ to total fatty acids. When the recovered lipid was substituted for soybean oil in processing of mayonnaise sauce, the maximum percentage of substitution ratio presumed to be $30\%$ according to viscosity, color difference, and emulsion stability evalution for the substituted ones.

Mackerel water-soluble protein solution Mackerel meat washing water were concentrated by isoelectric point shifting precipitation process, and the concentrates were utilized as a material for processing of an elastic gel food such as kamaboko. The water-soluble proteins were partly polymerized during the isoelectric point shifting precipitation process. Then, the water soluble protein concentrates were partly substituted for frozen minced Alaska pollack meat in processing of a good quality kamaboko. The maximum substitution percentage for good quality kamaboko manufacturing was concluded to be below $30\%$, according to the criteria of color difference, jelly strength and folding tests using the substituted recovered protein concentrates.
