초록

본 연구는 도시하수 처리시 부유성장 미생물만을 이용하는 표준 활성슬러지 공정(Conventional Activated Sludge; CAS) 및 MLE(Modified Ludzack-Ettinger) 공정과 부유 및 부착 미생물을 동시에 활용하는 하이브리드(hybrid)형 공정인 M-Dephanox(Modified-Dephanox) 공정의 유기물, 질소 및 인 제거효율을 상호 비교 검토하고자 하였다. M-Dephanox 공정은 기존 Dephanox 공정의 단점을 극복하기 위하여 고안된 공정으로서 기존 Dephanox 공정에 비해 탈질 효율을 증가시킬 수 있다. 연구 결과 부유 성장 미생물을 이용하는 MLE 공정에 비해 하이브리드형 공정인 M-Dephanox 공정의 TCOD, T-N 및 T-P 제거효율이 각각 12.3, 18.6, 28.2% 더 높게 관찰 되었다. M-Dephanox 공정이 MLE 공정에 비해 유기물 및 질소 제거 효율이 더 높은 원인은 M-Dephanox 공정이 하이브리드 공정이자 다단 슬러지 공정(multi-sludge)인 동시에 생흡착(biosorption)을 이용한 효과적인 유기물 이용 기작이 있기 때문이다. M-Dephanox 공정의 질산화 반응조에서의 암모니아성 질소 제거효율은 약 2hr의 수리학적 체류시간에서 약 96.7%로 나타나 Dephanox 공정과 관련한 기존 문헌에서 보고된 5 hr의 체류시간 보다 3 hr 짧은 수리학적 체류시간에서도 높은 암모니아성 질소 제거효율을 관찰 할 수 있어 전체 공정의 수리학적 체류시간을 줄이는데 커다란 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.

This study was initiated to evaluate efficiencies of suspenced-growth processes(CAS; Conventional Activated Sludge, MLE; Modified Ludzack-Ettinger) and hybrid process(Modified-Dephanox) on removal of organic matter(C), nitrogen(N) and phosphorus(P) in municipal wastewater. M-Dephanox process was designed to improve the performance of Dephanox process on denitrification efficiency. As the results, removal efficiencies of total chemical oxygen demand(TCOD), total nitrogen(T-N) and total phosphorus(T-P) in M-Dephanox process, which is hybrid process, were 12,3, 18.6 and 28.2% higher than those in MLE, which is suspended-growth process. The better removal efficiencies of TCOD, T-N and T-P in M-Dephanox than those in MLE result that M-Dephanox is not only hybrid or multi-sludge process but also process using biosorption mechanism which is possible to use organics in denitrification, effectively. Ammonia removal efficiency in nitrification reactor of M-Dephanox was 96.7% at short hydraulic retention time(HRT) of 2 hr which was 3 hr more short HRT than that(HRT 5 hr) reported in other related papers. This indicates that M-Dephanox process can reduce HRT of whole process.
