Abstract

In the operation of submerged membrane-coupled sequencing batch reactor, the effect of filling step on the removal efficiency and filtration performance were investigated. Two sets of operation modes, the filling step located in the beginning of aerobic step (Mode-1) and the beginning of anoxic step (Mode-2), during 89 days were conducted. There was no wide difference in the COD removal and filtration performance between two sets of operation modes. But in the removal efficiency of nutrients (total nitrogen and total phosphorous), Mode-2 was more effective than Mode-1. In the case of Mode-2, average removal efficiencies of COD, total nitrogen, and total phosphorous were 99.1, 73.3, and 77.3%, respectively.

침지식 막결합형 연속회분식 생물반응기에서 폐수의 도입단계가 제거효율과 여과성능에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 호기성 단계의 초기에 공급할 경우(Mode-1)와 무산소 단계의 초기에 공급할 경우(Mode-2)에 대하여 89일 동안 동시에 운전하였다. COD 제거효율과 여과성능은 2가지 운전방식 간에 큰 차이가 없었다. 그러나 영양염류(총질소와 총인)의 제거효율에 있어서 Mode-2가 Mode-1에 비해 보다 효과적이었다. Mode-2의 경우 COD, 총질소 및 총인의 제거율은 각각 99.1, 73.3 및 77.7%이었다.
