Abstract:
Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for reducing nitrate using iron-oxidizing microorganisms, which can easily reduce nitrate using iron-oxidizing microorganisms. The apparatus includes: a nitrate-reducing reactor which is operated under anaerobic conditions and provides a space for reduction of nitrate; and an iron-oxidizing microorganism provided in the nitrate-reducing reactor, wherein the iron-oxidizing microorganism releases divalent iron (Fe2+), the released Fe2+ is converted to Fe3+ by microbial oxidation under anaerobic conditions while releasing an electron, and the released electron is used in the reduction of nitrate into nitrogen gas by the iron-oxidizing microorganism.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to water treatment process using pyrophylite ceramic membrane which purifies contaminant from wastewater by applying the pyrophylite ceramic membrane with immersion type, more particularly, in the water treatment process using the pyrophylite ceramic membrane including pyrophylite with 80 weight and alumina with 20 weight, characterized that comprises a S-1 step which pyrophylite ceramic membrane 10 is embedded and raw water is supplied to a reactor 100 blocked from outside, a S-2 step which obtains permenate water by operating suction pump 130 connected with the pyrophylite ceramic membrane 10, a S-3 step which recovers gas generated from the reactor 100 and a S-4 step which circulates part of gas generated from the reactor 100 to the reactor 100.
