소독제에 따른 생물막 살균효율과 생물막 미생물집단의 탄소이용능 비교

Abstract

수돗물에서 생성된 탄소강관위의 생물막에 유리잔류염소와 모노클로라민을 처리하여 세균농도 변화와 그에 따른 탄소원 이용능을 조사하였다. 소독제 농도를 단계적으로 올렸을 때 종속영양세균의 농도는 모노클로라민과 유리잔류염소의 농도가 각 1.5, 1.0 mg/l까지는 대조구에 비해 감소가 없었지만 (P = 0.56, ANOVA) 모노클로라민 2.0 mg/l, 유리잔류염소 1.5 mg/l 일때 감소되었다 (P < 0.01, ANOVA). 소독제의 농도를 단계적으로 높일때 세균활성의 증가 후 감소 그리고 세균농도의 감소가 관찰되었다. 세균농도가 유사하더라도 각 탄소원에 대한 정량적, 정성적 이용도가 서로 달라 군집구조가 상이할 것으로 생각되었다. The influence of disinfectant on bacterial concentration and carbon usage patterns by Biolog GN plates were investigated for biofilm on carbon steel pipe. Heterotrophic bacterial concentrations were not different among non-, monochloramine- (1.0, 1.5 mg/l) and free chlorine- (0.5, 1.0 mg/l) treated samples (P = 0.56, ANOVA). However treatment of 1.5 mg/l free chlorine and 2.0 mg/l monochloraime showed significantly lower densities than control (P < 0.01, ANOVA). By the stepwise increasement of disinfectant concentration, the carbon usage activities of biofilm microflora were decreased after increase without the decrease of bacterial concentration, following reduction of cell density. Carbon usage patterns were qualitatively and quantitatively different with similar bacterial concentrations. Principal component analysis suggested that type and concentration of disinfectant were main factors on the usage of carbons. Our result suggest that the differences of bacterial communities were different among the samples and the need of monochloramine for the reduction of biofilm in drinking water.
