Title
Performance Comparison of Wastewater Pretreatment Processes for Efficient Configuration of Membrane Filtration System
현길수 Kil Soo Hyun
Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate the charateristics of wastewater pretreatment of aerobic/anoxic (OA) reactor, granule sludge (GS) reactor, and OA-GAC processes followed by membrane filtration (MF) processes with regard to contaminant and fouling reduction. Influent water qualities were on average 134.8±3.5 mgTOC/L, 32.00±1.60 mgT-N/L, and 3.40±0.13 mgT-P/L, respectively. Water temperature and pH were 20±0.5 and 6.7±0.4. As a result, the removal ℃ efficiencies of TOC, T-N, and T-P were 81.2±9.2, 69.7±10.6, and 71.6±12.6% for OA-MF configured system, 92.8±5.1, 79.2±8.0, and 82.8±9.9% for GS-MF configured system, and 97.0±2.1, 87.4±6.1, and 87.9±6.6% for OA-GAC-MF configured system, respectively. The permeate flux of OA-MF, GS-MF, and OA-GAC-MF configured system were in the range of 47.5±3.5, 93.9±2.9, and 215.2±26.6 L/m2hr, respectively. GS-MF and OA-GAC-MF configured systems with regard to contaminants reduction and high flux production were more effective than the OA-MF configured system. The GS reactor as an alternative process of the OA reactor or the addition of GAC bed after the OA process is needed to improve a fouling and filtration time of MF process.
