초록

화석연료의 매장량 한계와 해로운 영향으로 인하여 이를 대신할 대체 에너지연구가 요구되고 있다. 최근, 미세조류를 통한 바이오에너지 생산이 주목을 받고 있으며, 도시하수를 영양원으로 이용하여 미세조류를 배양하는 것은 생산비용을 낮추는 좋은 대안이 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 옥외 수질정화 배양 시스템(Small Scale Raceway Pond; SSRP)을 이용하여 적용했다. 실험에 사용한 도시하수는 하수종말처리장의 1차 침전지를 거친 유입수를 이용하였으며, 토착 미세조류를 SSRP에서 배양하였다. 체류시간 6일 운전 후 TN, TP, NH3-N의 평균 제거 효율은 77.77%, 63.55%, 89.02%로 각각 나타났다. 또한 미세조류 내의 지질함량은 평균 19.51%로 나타났으며, FAME는 주로 18:n인 linolenate, linoleate로 이루어져 있음을 확인하였다. 18S rRNA 유전자 분석과 현미경 관찰을 통하여 녹조류인 Chlorella와 Scenedesmus가 우점하는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 도시하수는 미세조류 배양에 필요한 질소와 인을 제공할 수 있으며, 미세조류를 이용한 SSRP를 통하여 정화될 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다. 또한 미세조류 배양을 통해 얻어진 바이오매스는 바이오디젤 전환을 통하여 상업화될 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.

Abstract

A concerted effort to develop alternative forms of energy is underway due to fossil fuel shortages and its deleterious effects. Recently, bioenergy from microalgae has gained prominence and the use of municipal wastewater as a low cost alternative for a nutrient source has significant advantages. In this study, we have employed municipal wastewater directly after primary treatment (primary settling basin) in a small scale raceway pond (SSRP) for microalgal growth. Indigenous microalgae in the wastewater were encouraged to grow in the SSRP under optimal conditions. The mean removal efficiencies of TN, TP, and NH3-N after 6 days were 77.77%, 63.55%, and 89.02%, respectively. The average lipid content of the microalgae was 19.51% of dry cell weight, and linolenate and linoleate (18:n) were the predominant fatty acids. The 18S rRNA gene analysis and microscopic observations of the indigenous microalgae community revealed the presence of Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus obliquus as the dominant microalgae. These results indicate that untreated municipal wastewater, serving as an excellent nitrogen and phosphate source for microalgal growth, could be treated using microalgae in open raceway ponds. Moreover, microalgal biomass could be further profitable by the extraction of biodiesel.
