Abstract

In this study, The effects of three different biological activated carbon (BAC) materials (each coal, coconut and wood based activated carbons), empty bed contact time (EBCT) and water temperature on the removal of haloacetic acid (HAA) 5 species in BAC filters were investigated. Experiments were conducted at three water temperatures (5, 10 and 20$^{\circ}C$) and four EBCTs (5, 10, 15 and 20 min). The results indicated that coal based BAC retained more attached bacterial biomass on the surface of the activated carbon than the other BAC, increasing EBCT or increasing water temperature increased the HAA 5 species removal in BAC columns. To achieve an HAA removal efficiency 50% or higher in a BAC filter, the authors suggest 10 min EBCT or longer for 5$^{\circ}C$ waters and 5 min EBCT for waters at 10$^{\circ}C$ or higher. The kinetic analysis suggested a first-order reaction model for HAA 5 species removal at various water temperatures (5, 10 and 20$^{\circ}C$). The pseudo-first-order reaction rate constants and half-lives were also calculated for HAA removal at 5, 10 and 20$^{\circ}C$. The pseudo-first-order reaction rate constants and half-lives were also calculated for HAA 5 species removal at 5$\sim$ 20$^{\circ}C$. The half-lives of HAA 5 species ranging from 0.75 to 18.58 min could be used to assist water utilities in designing and operating BAC filters for HAA removal.

생물활성탄(BAC) 재질별 EBCT 및 수온변화에 따른 HAA 5종의 생물분해 특성을 조사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 BAC에서 HAA 제거시 EBCT와 수온이 매우 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. EBCT와 수온을 증가시킬 경우 HAA의 제거율이 상승하였으며, 수온이 20$^{\circ}C$ 보다 높을 경우 HAA의 제거능은 EBCT의 영향을 크게 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 수온이 5$\sim$10$^{\circ}C$ 정도로 낮을 경우는 EBCT의 증가가 HAA의 제거율에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 활성탄 재질에 따른 BAC에서의 HAA 제거는 석탄계 재질에서의 생물분해능이 가장 높았고, 다음으로 야자계, 목탄계 순으로 조사되었다. HAA 5종에 대한 생물분해 속도상수와 반감기는 수온이 5$^{\circ}C$일 때의 HAA 5종에 대한 생물분해 속도상수(k)와 반감기(t$_{1/2}$)는 0.0373$\sim$0.1175 min$^{-1}$, 반감기는 5.9$\sim$18.58분이었으며, 수온을 10$^{\circ}C$와 20$^{\circ}C$로 증가시켰을 때 5$^{\circ}C$일 때와 반감기를 비교해 보면 1.5$\sim$7.9배로 감소되었다.
