음식물류폐기물폐수의 혐기성 소화에서 바이오가스의 실록산 농도 특성

Siloxane is an organic silicon compound and is volatilized into the bio gas from anaerobic digestion. It causes failure of gas combustion engines using the bio gas. Siloxane emission characteristics should be identified to provide a proper siloxane control. This study focuses on characterizing siloxane emission in bio gas from an anaerobic digester of food wastewater operating from January to March. The concentrations of total average siloxane and cycle-siloxane D4 were detected to be 9.5 and 4.0 ㎎ siloxane/㎥, respectively. The concentrations of cycle-siloxane and linear-siloxane were resulted in D4＞D5＞D6 and L4＞L3＞L5＞L2, respectively. The total siloxane concentration was the lowest in January and the highest in March.
