Bio-Eco Engineering Research Laboratory

Water Environment Pollution ControlMore specifically, the following five tasks are principally

necessary for water environment restoration:

① Survey on growth potential of toxic

cyanobacteria Blue green algae;

② Development of an environmental restoration

technology using protozoa/micro-metazoa and

other microorganisms;③ Investigation of the wastewater characteristics of

the pollution sources; ④ Development of technologies for dispersed

wastewater treatment, such as advanced Johkasou

(N/P removal)System⑤ Development of ecological engineering techniques

that allow use of large aquatic vegetation, such as artificial wetlands.

Effects of Nitrogen/Phosphorous on environment, Eco-balance and Health

• Health Hazards– Nitrogen: Metohemoglobinemia

– Phosphorous: Osteoporosis, Ureteral stone

– Cyanobacteria: Metabolic production of toxic cyanobacteria

60 times more toxic than potassium cyanide

* Deaths of livestock and humans overseas

• Agricultural Damage– Nitrogen: Succulent growth (growth of

only stems or stalks)

• Outbreak of Cyanobacteria/Red Tides– Damage to fisheries: Death of marine

animals

– Damage to sightseeing areas: Offensive odors, closure of bathing areas

– Problems for water utilization: Increase in processing costs due to filtration problems at water purification plants or offensive odors from municipal water.

Status Monitoring of DO Control by AOSD

An aerobic aeration blower is generally required to be operated 24 hours a day. AOSD always inputs the dissolved oxygen level and temperatures to the CPU, calculates the nitrification and denitrification rate, and calculates appropriate on/off aeration, thereby improving water quality and reducing power consumption.

The aeration time is long when the load of inflow organic matters is high, and the aeration time is short when the load of inflow organic matters is low.

Automatic control of the aeration air volume decreases the pH by nitrification and increases it by denitrification. Thus, AOSD is capable ofconducting advanced treatment suitable for biological treatment.

Automatic Oxygen Supply Device

AOSD is an innovative system for a low-carbon society created from the fusion with micro bubble technology. It is capable of conducting advanced treatment

on sewage with a lower power consumption.

Advanced Sewage Treatment System

Organic wastewater consists of human wastes and miscellaneous wastewater and has a typical BOD, T-N, and T-P

level of 200 mg・L－１, 50 mg・L－１, and 5mg・L－１, respectively. Daily and yearly changes in the amount of drainage

should be considered.

The desired future of Japanese ETV system and performance evaluation of

Johkasou1) Evaluation in each area has been made based on the

experience of the ETV system. But, in organicwastewater treatment is necessary to adjust longperiod in the length of verification test .

2) Previously, performance evaluation of Johkasou wasmade either by a general evaluation that allowedinstallation at any on-site examination, as well asindividual evaluation, which needed to be made foreach specific on-site examination .

3) ETV system can be understood as the same of thisindividual specific on-site examination evaluation.

4) In the case of ETV on general evaluation is adopted,performance evaluation of the same Johkasou isdeemed appropriate.

5) It is important to evaluate the Johkasou in China based on the JICA’s “Water Environment Restoration Model Project at Taihu Lake”.

6) In this project , similar of Bio-Eco Engineering research laboratory ( Japan’s National Institute for Environmental Studies ) was installed at the Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences (CRAES) and initiate on estimate Johkasou system.

7) It is impossible to guarantee the reliable performance of Johkasou in China , without combining two types of tests for the evaluation. Namely, “a constant-temperature short-term evaluation test”, which lasts about four months with standardized concentration of raw wastewater, and the “on-site test which lasts one year” (four seasons) with standardized concentration of raw wastewater(standard BOD/N/P).

8) Regarding the evaluation of Johkasou for

household wastewater, it is essential to introduce the

Japanese performance evaluation system, which

requires authorization by minister of the Ministry of

Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

instead of introducing the ETV system.

9) Regarding organic wastewater treatment, it is

essential to develop a maintenance and management

system such as water quality management and

sludge management.

10) Since sludge is biomass, a treatment system

should be devised with applications of hydrothermal

reaction (subcritical water), etc. and special

consideration for recycling and circulation.
