To investigate the difference in the disinfectant efficiency of ozone microbubbles ($O_3MB$) and ozone millibubbles ($O_3MMB$), the morphological change of the treated Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis spores was observed with scanning and transmission electron microscopies (SEM and TEM). The disinfectant efficiency of $O_3MB$ on F. oxysporum f. sp. melonis spores was greater than that of $O_3MMB$. On observation with SEM, it was revealed that morphological change of F. oxysporum f. sp. melonis spores was caused by $O_3MB$ and $O_3MMB$, and damage to the spore surfaces by $O_3MB$ occurred sooner than that by $O_3MMB$. On observation with TEM, it was furthermore confirmed that F. oxysporum f. sp. melonis spores treated with $O_3MB$ induced wavy deformation of cell membrane and the intracellular change different from that with $O_3MMB$. Therefore, the greater disinfection efficiency of $O_3MB$ was suggested to be caused due to the function of the MB in addition to the oxidative power of $O_3$.

급격한 산업화와 인구증가로 인한 화학물질 사용량의 증가는 기존의 수 처리 방식의 대부분을 차지하는 생물학적 공정의 한계를 불러온다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 고급산화공정의 하나인 오존 마이크로버블 기술이 최근 주목을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 마이크로버블의 물리학적 및 화학적 특성에 대해 논하고, 다양한 독성 오염물질의 제거를 중심으로 마이크로버블 오존산화공정을 분석하였다. 또한 다른 처리 기술과 결합한 오존 마이크로버블 기술의 용수 및 폐수처리 전망을 논하였다.

Effluent of wastewater treatment plant is to be disinfected to protect drinking water sources. DOF (Dissolved Ozone Flotation) was developed to meet this purpose. DOF was developed by combining DAF system with ozone. DAF system has good floating power with numerous microbubbles, and ozone has strong oxidation capability. And DOF system has good floating power and strong oxidation capability simultaneously. When DOF was applied to secondary wastewater effluent, color of 11CU in raw water which was secondary effluent was reduced to 1CU by the DOF system. Removal rate of other water quality parameters treated by DOF were also higher than that by DAF, which were proved the strength of oxidation capability of ozone. When ozone concentration of 3.3mg/l were applied in DOF system, general aerobic bacteria were reduced to 5CFU/ml from TNTC (Too many Numbers To Count). With the same ozone concentration, total coliform were not detected at all. These figures are under the numbers of drinking water regulation. These microbes were the target parameters of DOF. It was proved that DOF was very effective in disinfection of wastewater treatment plant effluent as well as in removal of color, turbidity, and T-P.

The use of ozone gained acceptance in the production of ultrapure water because of its powerful oxidizing ability. Ozone is currently used to deactivate microorganisms and remove organic contaminants. However, interest also exists in using radical species, which arc stronger oxidants than ozone, in such processes. One means of producing radical species is by corona discharge. This work investigates the use of a novel pulseless corona-discharge system for the removal of organic substances in ultrapure water production. The method combines corona discharge with electrohydrodynamic spraying of oxygen, forming microbubbles. Experimental results show that pulseless corona discharge effectively removes organics, such as phenol and methylene blue, in deionized water. The corona-discharge method is demonstrated to be comparable to the direct use of ozone at a high-applied voltage. The results also show that a minimum applied voltage exists for operation of the corona-discharge method. In this work, the minimum applied voltage is approximately 4.5 kV. The kinetic rate or phenol degradation in the reactor is modeled. Modeling results show that the dominant species of the pulseless corona-discharge reactor are hydroxyl radical and aqueous electron. Several radical species produced in the pulseless corona-discharge process are identified experimentally. The. major species are hydroxyl radical, atomic hydrogen species, and ozone.

상수나 하수처리장에서 쓰이는 오존처리는 물질전달에 제약을 받는 공정임은 알려져왔다. 이런 물질전달의 한계를 극복하는 방법으로 매우 효과적인 것은 오존가스를 함유한 기포의 크기를 줄임으로써 물질전달에 필요한 접촉면적을 넓히는 것이다. 오존의 전달을 크게 하기 위한 방법으로서 본 연구에서는 전기장분사(Electrostatic spraying: ES)를 사용하였다. 실험에서는 ES와 기포발생판을 비교하였는데 ES실험에서는 전압을 0 kV에서 4 kV 범위까지 높여주어 물질전달효과를 살펴보았고 기공크기가 다른 두 가지 기포발생판(미세기공: 기공크기 $10{\sim}15{\mu}m$, 중간기공: 기공크기 $40{\sim}60{\mu}m$)을 사용하여 물질전달효율을 비교 분석 하였다. 물질전달효율은 시간의 경과에 따른 용존오존농도의 측정과 페놀의 산화시간으로 간접 계산하였다. 실험 결과 ES의 경우 전압을 0 kV에서 4 kV까지 올렸을 때 기포의 크기가 작아짐으로 인해 오존전달율을 약 40% 정도 향상시킬 수 있었다. 또한 ES와 기포발생판의 물질전달 비교실험에서 미세기공 기포발생판보다 4 kV의 ES가 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

Ozone, a powerful oxidant, is widely used to remove microorganisms, pesticides, taste and odor compounds effectively. Dissolved air flotation (OAF) has been known as an economical process for treating algae and low turbid water quality. An ozoflotation system, combining ozone and OAF processes, has a merit which can operate the ozonation and flotation process simultaneously in a single compartment. This study investigated the application of the ozoflotation process for advanced water treatment by carrying out the pilot-plant experiment. During the test, ozone microbubbles were generated through a OAF pump and many kinds of parameters were evaluated under several conditions, such as raw water flow rate and ozone dose. As a result of the test, the optimum operating conditions of ozoflotation were decided to be 1.2 mg/L ozone dose and about 34 minute Hydraulic retention time (HRT). Finally, it could be demonstrated that the ozoflotation system can effectively improve the drinking water quality.

본 연구에서는 용존오존부상법(Dissolved Ozone Flotation; DOF)을 이용한 정수처리 효과를 파악하기 위하여 적정 오존 주입 농도와 오존 주입 농도별 처리 특성에 대해서 연구하였으며, 또한 용존공기부상법(Dissolved Air Flotation; DAF) 및 중력식 침전법(Conventional Gravity Sedimentation; CGS)과 DOF의 처리 성능을 비교하였다. 최적 오존 주입 농도를 산정하기 위한 실험에서 최적 오존 주입농도는 2.7 mg/L로 나타났으며, 오존 주입 농도가 증가할수록 탁도 및 KMnO$_4$ 소모량, UV$_{254}$ 흡수도, TOC 등과 같은 제거효율이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. DOF와 DAF, CGS의 처리성능을 비교한 결과 오존 주입 농도 2.7 mg/L로 운전한 DOF시스템의 탁도 제거효율은 88.9%, 유기물질 항목의 경우 KMnO$_4$ 소모량은 62.9%, TOC 47%, 그리고 UV$_{254}$ 흡수도 77.3% 그리고 THMFP 제거율의 경우 51.6%로 다른 두 공정보다 높거나 비슷하게 나타났다. 따라서 응집 부상 공정과 오존 산화 공정이 하나의 반응기에서 일어나는 DOF 시스템은 정수처리시설의 소유부지 감소와 기존 CGS 시스템에서 처리가 어려운 조류 및 용존성 유기물질의 제거를 통해 소독부산물의 생성을 감소시킴으로 향후 고도정수처리시스템으로 적용 가능성이 충분한 것으로 판단된다.
