For the biological treatment of phenolic resin wastewater containing phenol and formaldehyde, a phenol-degrading yeast was isolated from the papermill sludge, and then identified as Candida tropicalis PW-51 according to morphological, physiological and biochemical properties. The strain was able to degrade high phenol concentrations up to 2,000mg/l within 58 hours in batch cultures. Phenol-degrading efficiency by the strain was maximum at the culture conditions of a final concentration of 9 $\times$ 10$^{6}$ cells/ml, 30$\circ$C and pH 7.0. The mean degradation rate of phenol was highest at 45.5mg/l/h in 1,000mg/l phenol from 500mg/l to 2,000mg/l phenol. Because the enzyme activity of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase increased in the course of degradation of phenol, it seems that this strain degrades phenol via the ortho-cleavage of benzene ring. The isolate C. tropicalis PW-51 could be effectively used for the biological treatment of phenolic resin wastewater.

Bioluminescent bacteria fusing the stress promoter and lux gene have been developed as a toxicity biosensor. The light emitting bioluminescent bacteria have been used to measure the toxicity of many different chemicals. In this study, specially, DPD2540 (fabA::luxCDABE) was used to detect and classify phenolic toxicity to the cells membrane fatty acids, and then the relationship between phenolic toxicity and the distribution of various phenols in the cell was determined, with a model and equations provided. In addition, to show the possibility of detecting and classifying the toxicity of a chemical mixture, which may be present in wastewater, various bioluminescent bacteria having different stress promoters were used and their distinct response to the sample mixture was measured. To extend the applicable area of these bioluminescent bacteria to field, the portable biosensor using freeze-drying methods was developed and confirmed successfully.

Copper nanoparticle-doped and graphitic carbon nanofibers-covered porous carbon beads were used as an efficient catalyst for treating synthetic phenolic water by catalytic wet air oxidation (CWAO) in a packed bed reactor over 10-30 bar and $180-230^{\circ}C$, with air and water flowing co-currently. A mathematical model based on reaction kinetics assuming degradation in both heterogeneous and homogeneous phases was developed to predict reduction in chemical oxygen demand (COD) under a continuous operation with recycle. The catalyst and process also showed complete COD reduction (>99%) without leaching of Cu against a high COD (~120,000 mg/L) containing industrial wastewater.

The phenolic compounds are a major contaminant class often found in industrial wastewaters and the biological treatment is an alternative tool commonly employed for their removal. In this sense, monitoring microbial community dynamics is crucial for a successful wastewater treatment. This work aimed to monitor the structure and activity of the bacterial community during the operation of a laboratory-scale continuous submerged membrane bioreactor (SMBR), using PCR and RT-PCR followed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and 16S rRNA libraries. Multivariate analyses carried out using DGGE profiles showed significant changes in the total and metabolically active dominant community members during the 4-week treatment period, explained mainly by phenol and ammonium input. Gene libraries were assembled using 16S rDNA and 16S rRNA PCR products from the fourth week of treatment. Sequencing and phylogenetic analyses of clones from the 16S rDNA library revealed a high diversity of taxa for the total bacterial community, with predominance of Thauera genus (ca. 50%). On the other hand, a lower diversity was found for metabolically active bacteria, which were mostly represented by members of Betaproteobacteria (Thauera and Comamonas), suggesting that these groups have a relevant role in the phenol degradation during the final phase of the SMBR operation.

본(本) 연구(硏究)는 여과막(濾過膜) 활성(活性)슬러지공법(工法)에 의하여 독성(毒性)이 있는 phenol 폐수(廢水)의 처리가능성(處理可能性)을 조사하기 위하여 실시되었다. 합성(合成) phenol 폐수(廢水)를 4 기(期)에 걸쳐 연속주입 하면서 실시한 실험결과에 의하면 과거의 연구결과와 마찬가지로 합성섬유(合成纖維)담요가 내구성(耐久性), SS 제거율(除去率), 폐수투과율(廢水透過率) 등(等)을 고려할 때 여과막(濾過膜)으로서 알맞는 재료(材料)이며, 반응조(反應槽)의 수온(水溫)이 $10{\sim}15^{\circ}C$이하로 장시간 지속되면 여과막(濾過膜)의 폐수투과율(廢水透過率) 크게 감소된다는 것이 확인되었다. 여과막(濾過膜) 활성(活性)슬러지공법(工法)에서는 반응조내(反應槽內)의 미생물(微生物) 농도(濃度)가 높게 유지될 수 있어 높은 유기물부하(有機物負荷)서도 F/M 비(比)가 낮게 되므로 높은 phenol 제거효율(除去效率)을 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 반응조가 정상적으로 운영된 경우 $63{\sim}468mg/{\ell}$의 유입수(流入水) phenol 농도에서 $0.1mg/{\ell}$ 이하의 유출수(流出水) phenol 농도를 보였다. 또한 본(本) 연구(硏究)에서는 미생물(微生物) 성장계수(成長係數)가 제거(除去)된 COD 1 kg 당 0.035~0.160 kg SS로서 다른 활성(活性)슬러지공법(工法)에 비하여 매우 낮았으며 슬러지의 호기성(好機性) 소화시(消化時) 내호흡율(內呼吸率)의 온도보정계수(溫度補正係數)는 1.021로 관측되었다.

본 연구에서는 다환방형족화합물의 하나인 phenanthrene를 이용하여 천연망간산화물에 흡착/탈착되는 특성을 평가하였다. 토양, 퇴적물이나 수체에 다양한 오염물이 동시에 존재하는 경우를 고려하여 페놀계 오염물이 있는 경우, 다환 방형족화합물의 흡탈착에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 망간산화물에 의하여 4-클로로페놀은 효과적으로 산화되었으며 반응산물은 고분자화(휴믹화) 되는 경향을 나타내었다. 4-클로로페놀이 분해됨에 따라 망간산화물 표면에 흡착되는 phenanthrene의 양은 급격히 증가하였다. 또한, 4-클로로페놀이 존재하는 경우 흡착된 phenanthrene의 탈착에 대한 저항성은 4-클로로페놀 농도가 증가할수록 강하게 나타남으로써 고분자화된 4-클로로페놀 반응산물에 phenanthrene이 강하게 흡착되어 있다는 결과를 도출하였다. 결과적으로 망간산화물은 페놀계 오염물과 다환방향족화합물을 동시에 처리하는데 효과적으로 사용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.

본 연구는 회전원판법에 의한 페놀성폐수의 처리시 최적유지물부하율과 적정유입페놀농도의 범위를 구하기 위하여, 유입페놀농도와 유기물부하율이 페놀과 유기물의 제거 및 미생물에 미치는 영향을 비교분석한 것으로, 페놀농도의 단계적 변화후 정상상태에서 SCOD와 페놀의 농도 및 미생물량을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 유업페놀농도 50.0~314.5 mg/L에서는 페놀의 제거효율이 98% 이상이었으나 401.5 mg/L에서는 그 효율이 71.5%로 감소하였다. 유기물제거율은 유입페놀농도가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향 보였으며, 페놀의 기질저해작용이 확인된 유입페놀농도 186.6 mg/L 이상의 범위에서 SCOD의 제거는 1차반응으로 나타났다. 또한 부착 미생물의 특성은 유입페놀농도에 따라 변화하였으며, 유입페놀농도 98.8 mg/L 이하에서는 filamentous growth 구조의 두꺼운 생물막이 발달하였고 314.5 mg/L 이상에서는 nonfilamentous growth 구조의 얇은 생물막이 발달되었다.

Phenol and other phenolic compounds are common constituents of aqueous effluents from processes such as polymeric resin production, oil refining and cokeing plants. Phenol is a both toxic and lethal of fish at relatively low concentrations e.g. 5-25 mg/L and imparts objectionable tastes to drinking water at far lower concentration. Therefore, the treatment of phenol effluent is important. Among the various techniques of phenol wastewater treatment, microbial teratment is a popular process. The breakdown of phenols by microorganisms has recived considerable attention, because of its biochemical interest and its industrial importance in effluent treatment. This research was performed to investigate the dynamics of microbial community, biofilm growth and the comparison of phenol removal efficiency by RBC (Rotating Biological Contactor) using Rhodococcus sp. EL-GT The experiment was carried out at rotating speed of 10ppm and hydraulic retention time of 7 hours. As time passed, phenol removal efficiency was gained highly. The RBC using Rhodococcus sp. EL-GT completely degraded 15 mM.

In this study, we used activated carbon (AC) and charcoal (CH) as carbon sources with $TiO_2$ powder to prepare spherical carbons containing titania (SCCT) by using phenolic resin (PR) as a bonding agent. The physicochemical characteristics of the SCCT samples were examined by BET, XRD, SEM, EDX, iodine adsorption and compressive strength. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by measuring the removal efficiency of three kinds of organic dyes: methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine B (Rh.B) under a UV/SCCT system. In addition, evaluation of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of piggery waste was done at regular intervals and gave a good idea about the mineralization of wastewater.

The adsorption of bisphenol A from an aqueous solution onto dried rice husk was investigated. Batch adsorption experiments were performed as a function of the pH, contact time, bisphenol A concentration, adsorbent dose and temperature. The concentration of Bisphenol A was measured by HPLC. The results showed that bisphenol A removal was highest at a solution pH value of 3, adsorbent dose of 4 g/L, and contact time of 75 min. The bisphenol A removal percentage decreased from 99.1 to 66.7%, when the bisphenol A concentration increased from 10 to 200 mg/L. The Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second order kinetics provided the best fit for the experimental data. Thermodynamic parameters such as ${\Delta}G^0$, ${\Delta}H^0$ and ${\Delta}S^0$ were also evaluated and it was found that the sorption process was feasible, spontaneous and exothermic in nature. Overall, the studied absorbent can be used as an effective and low cost material to treat the industrial wastewater and aqueous solution containing phenolic compounds.
