Abstract: The present disclosure relates to equipment and method for water and stream purification using a pre-treatment and multi-layered media system which may effectively remove dissolved phosphorus, COD and organic matter by introducing a pre-treatment device to stably operate filter media and applying a strainer to each filter media to improve water permeating ability of the filter media.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and a method for river water purification using a treatment soil layer and a permeable filtering medium layer. The river water purification apparatus includes a treatment soil layer and a permeable filtering medium layer which are sequentially and alternately stacked. The treatment soil layer includes a plurality of unit soil layers which are arranged at intervals. A reservoir part which stores a predetermined amount of river water and supplies the river water to an inside of the unit soil layer is provided in an upper end part of the unit soil layer. The permeable filtering medium layer has a higher hydraulic conductivity than that of the treatment soil layer. The river water purification apparatus increases a treatment flux of river water regardless of a coefficient of water permeability of soil and effectively removes nitrogen, phosphorus and nutrient salts by stably forming an anaerobic condition.

Abstract: Provided is a method for detecting a membrane module flaw, including: preparing fluorescent particles having a size of 0.5 to 1.5 ?m using silica; injecting the fluorescent particles in a concentration of greater than 0 mg/mL and less than 0.1 mg/mL or equal into a membrane module used in a sewage and wastewater treatment process; operating a pump to apply a pressure such that the fluorescent particles injected into the membrane module leak to the outside of the membrane module, in case that the membrane module has a flaw; acquiring a digital image of the membrane module; and discriminating a colored portion from a non-colored portion in the digital image.
