The study was conducted to know the possibility that the removal efficiency of organic and suspended solids(SS) could be increased by suppling of sea water and the optimum amount of sea water to be supplied treat bleaching waste water by lime coagulation settlement at pulp mill process. When the lime dosage was increased, the removal efficiency of COD and SS in the waste water was increased based on the removal efficiency of COD and SS. The lime dosage and removal efficiency was increased proportionally with the lime concentration of 4,000 mg/l, but the increase of removal efficiency was presented slightly above the 4,000mg/l. It was evaluated that the removal efficiencies of COD and SS could be increased and the requirement of lime dosage could be decreased by the sea water supplement. The removal efficiency of SS was most increased when the sea water supplement was 10% or more in the waste water. The removal efficiencies of COD was the best at 4% sea water excepting the dilution efficiency by sea water supplement.

We compared the applicability and economical efficiency of peroxone process with those of ozone process in the existing water treatment plant on downstream of Nakdong River. After comparing the peroxone process for removing geosmin with the ozone process in lab scale test, peroxone process showed much higher removal efficiency than the ozone process at the same ozone dosage. Proper range of $H_2O_2/O_3$ ratio were 0.5~1.0 and the half-life of geosmin was about 5.5~6.8 min when the $H_2O_2/O_3$ ratio was set to 0.5 during 1~2 mg/L of ozone dosage. Peroxone process could reduce the ozone dosage about 50 to maximum 30% for the same geosmin removal efficiency compared to the ozone process in the pilot scale test. In case of 1,4-dioxane treatment, peroxone process could have 3~4 times higher efficiency than ozone process at the same ozone dosage. The results of estimating the economical efficiency of ozone and peroxone process for treating geosmin and 1,4-dioxane by using pilot scale test, in case of the removal target was set to 85% for these two materials, the cost of peroxane process could be reduced about 1.5 times compared to ozone process, and in the same production cost peroxone process could have 2~3 times higher removal efficiency than ozone process. The removal efficiency by peroxone process showed a large difference depending on the physicochemical characteristics of target materials and raw water, therefore detailed examination should be carried out before appling peroxone process.

시화호 인공습지의 오염물질 제거효율을 분석평가하고 수질정화기능의 저하원인을 파악하기 위하여 습지내 16개 지점에서 시공간적 수질분포에 대해 조사하였다. TN을 제외한 오염물질 제거효율은 조성 초기에 비해 낮아졌으며, 계절변동 또한 매우 큰 것으로 나타났다. 특히 BOD와 TP의 평균 제거효율이 각각 12.3%, -44.5%로 낮고, TN과 SS에 비해 계절변동이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 월평균 BOD의 제거효율은 습지 하류부에서 식물플랑크톤이 대량 증식하였던 4월과 7월에 처리효율이 나타나지 않았으며, TP의 경우는 4월부터 8월까지 제거효율이 지속적으로 감소하였으며 수온이 가장 높았던 8월에 -291%를 나타냈다. 폐쇄수역에서 SS 농도분포는 좌안과 우안에 비해 중앙지점에서 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 ANOVA test로부터 수평적으로 유의적인 차이(p = 0.013, 중앙 > 좌안 > 우안)를 보였다. 시화호 인공습지에서 오염물질 제거효율의 저하원인은 과도한 유기물 생산에 의한 습지의 혐기성환경과 이에 따른 습지 하류부에서 용출된 인과 대량 증식한 식물플랑크톤이 균등하지 못한 물 흐름에 의해 식생대를 거치지 않고 유출되었기 때문으로 유추된다.

Objectives: The most commonly detected heavy metals in rocks and soils, including Pb, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn and As, are representative pollutants discharged from abandoned mines and have been listed as potential sources of contamination in drinking water. This study focused on increasing the removal efficiency of heavy metals from drinking water resources by surface modification of natural adsorbents to reduce potential health risks. Methods: Iron oxide coating and graft polymerization with zeolites and talc was conducted for bipolar surface modification to increase the combining capacity of heavy metals for their removal from water. The removal efficiency of heavy metals was measured before and after the surface modification. Results: The removal efficiency of Pb, Cu, and Cd by surface modified zeolite showed 100, 92, and 61.5%, respectively, increases compared to 64, 64, and 38% for non-modified zeolite. This implies that bipolar surface modified natural adsorbents have a good potential use in heavy metal removal. The more interesting finding is the removal increase for As, which has both cation and anion characteristics showing 27% removal efficiency where as non-modified zeolite showed only 2% removal. Conclusions: Zeolite is one of the most widely used adsorptive materials in water treatment processes and bipolar surface modification of zeolite increases its applicability in the removal of heavy metals, especially As.

This study was carried out to evaluate the performance of a lab-scale novel septic tank system for improving the conventional septic tank in the developing countries of water shortages. The lab-scale novel septic tank system consists of sepetic tank, aeration tank with HBC-ring, and sand filter. Optimum HRT was reguired about 1.5days to get a total COD removal efficiency of 90%, COD, BOD and SS removal efficiency was about 70%, 60%, and 85% in sepetic tank only. The structure of sepetic tank with two stages results in the high removal efficiency of organic matter. When sepetic tank, aeration tank, and sand filter were more than HRT 1.5days, 18hrs, and 12hrs, respectively, final effluent was less than 20 mg/L of BOD, 14 mg/L of SS, so that there is a high potential of its use for reusing water in flush toilet. There is no significant effect of HRT change on nutrient removal. Total nitrogen removal efficiency was about 40%, final effluent was 30~40 mg/L of TN, total phosphorus removal efficiency was about 11~25%, final effluent was 9~12 mg/L of TP. Because there is very small amounts of organic nitrogen and phosphorus in effluent, it was possible to reuse water for agricultural use.

수계에서 검출되는 미량유해물질의 빈도와 종류가 다양해지고 있다. 따라서 정수처리시스템에서 고려되어야 할 부분으로 거론되고 있으며 제거공정과 처리효율에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고도처리공정과 나노여과공정을 이용한 제거효율을 평가하였다. 나노여과공정의 경우 물질의 물리화학적 특성에 따라 제거율이 상이하게 나타났다. 물질의 분획분자량이 제거율이 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 원수의 pH보다 높은 pKa 값을 갖거나 Log Kow 값이 2 이하인 물질의 제거효율이 감소되었다. 고도처리공정 중 산화공정에서는 대상물질의 분자량이 클수록 그리고 소수성을 띌수록 산화반응에 의한 제거효율이 감소되었다. 흡착공정에서는 산화되지 않은 대부분의 물질이 제거되었으며 $H_2O_2$에 의하여 산화가 더 잘 진행될수록 흡착반응이 향상되었다.
