초록

SBR시스템을 이용한 비염분 폐수와 염분 폐수의 생물학적 처리 시 starvation이전 제올라이트 및 입상활성탄 주입이 starvation 이후 시스템의 재가동시 시스템의 성능회복에 대해 조사하였다. Starvation 이후 시스템의 재가동시, SVI, floc의 크기, fractal dimension, 유기물 지표인 $COD_{Mn}$과 T-N, T-P의 처리효율에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 회복 기간을 도출하고자 하였다. 5일 동안 starvation 후 재가동하였을 때에 초기의 SVI는 증가하였으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 감소하였다. 또한 floc 크기 및 fractal dimension이 클수록, 유기물, T-N 및 T-P 처리효율도 증가하였다. 시스템의 성능회복은 floc 크기 및 fractal dimension에 상관성을 가지고 있었다. Starvation 이후 재가동시 오염물질($COD_{Mn}$, T-N, T-P) 처리효율이 정상상태로 회복하는데 필요한 시간은 담체 주입이 미주입보다 더 짧은 시간이 소요되었다.

The effectiveness of adding powdered zeolite and granular activated carbon (GAC) before starvation into biological reactor for recovering its performances was investigated. Two types of carrier addition in Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) system for non-saline and saline wastewater were evaluated after starvation periods. During the experiment, settleablity (SVI), floc size, fractal dimension, $COD_{Mn}$, T-N, T-P removal efficiencies and recovery time were monitored. When the wastewater feeding was resumed after starvation period for 5days, the SVI increased at the beginning of resumption and then decreased with time in both types. And the larger the floc size and fractal dimension of floc, the more increased removal efficiency for $COD_{Mn}$, T-N and T-P was also. Its performance recovery was strongly correlated with floc size and fractal dimension of activated sludge. After resuming the wastewater feeding, the SVI, floc size, fractal dimension, $COD_{Mn}$, T-N, T-P removal efficiency of SBR with carrier improved and reached its initial value faster compared to those of SBR without carrier.
