생물막 유동층 반응기에서 고농도 합성 폐수의 처리효율과 미생물 성상
Biomass Characteristics and Substrate Removal Efficiency Using High Concentrated Synthetic Wastewater in FBBR
초록
이 실험의 목적은 생물막 유동층 반응기내에서 미생물 성상의 변화를 관찰하여 유기물 처리효율과 최대 미생물 농도를 아정적으로 유지할 수 있는 조건을 고찰하는 데 있다. 모래를 여재로 사용하여 수리학적 체류시간을 5시간, 상향유속을 17m/hr, 운전온도는 22±1℃, pH는 7±0.1로 고정한 상태에서 유기물 부하율을 10kg COD/m3ㆍday에서 80kg COD/m3ㆍday로 증가시키면서 실험을 수행하였다. 또한 실험에 사용한 폐수는 글루코오즈를 기질로 한 합성폐수를 조제하여 사용하였다. 유기물 부하율이 10kg COD/m3ㆍday에서 COD는 96%의 제거율을 나타내었고, 반응기내 미생물 농도는 6,530mg/l이었다. 또한, 유기물 부하율이 80kg COD/m3ㆍday로 증가되어도 COD는 73%의 높은 제거율과 반응기내 미생물 농도는 37,000mg/l를 나타내었다. 유기물 제거율의 관점에서 보면 F/M비가 1.7이하, 미생물막 두께가 420㎛ 이하에서 운전하는 것이 가장 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.
The purposes of this experiment were to investigate biomass characteristics and substrate re-moval efficiency and to find the optimum conditions on holding up higher biomass concentration in Fluidized-Bed Biofilm Reactor(FBBR). A number of experiments were conducted under the following conditions by increasing organic loading rate from 10kg COD/m3ㆍday to 80kg COD/m3ㆍday. Superficial upflow velocity was 17m/hr, operating temperature was 22±1℃ and pH was 7±0.1. The synthetic wastewater based on glucose was used as a substrate in this experiment. The removal of chemical oxygen demand(COD) with volumetric loading rates of 10kg COD/m3ㆍday was investigated to show the efficiency of aerobic FBBR. The corresponding COD removal efficiencies were 96 and 73% with volumetric loading rate of 10 to 80kg COD/m3ㆍday, respectively, and the concentrations of biomass remaining inside the reactor were shown 6,500mg/l and 37,000mg/l, respectively. These experimental conditions of the F/M ratio of 1.7 and the biofilm thickness of 420㎛ was proved to be a most appropriate condition in operating FBBR in the view of substrate removal.
