Methyl fructoside was continuously produced in suspended bed enzyme reactor using alginate-enclosed microspheres biocatalyst which was developed for enzymatic synthesis of methyl fructoside. And the continuous operating conditions were optimized with reactor simulation in order to demonstrate a feasibility of commercialization of the continuous enzymatic production process development. The yield and productivity of methyl fructoside were as high as 47.1%o and $2g/\ell$-hr, respectively. The optimum operating conditions were pH 4.8, 30%(v/v) of methanol content and $2U/m\ell$ of enzyme activity when the initial concentration of sucrose is $0.291mo1/\ell$ at the reaction temperature of $25^{\circ}C$.

In order to prolong freshness of garlic, the effect of different predrying treatments on quality characteristics during predrying and storage was investigated. As a result of being applied continuous predrying methods dried for 24 hours a day and discontinuous methods dried for 9 hours and left for 15 hrs a day at 30, 40, $50^{\circ}C$ respectively, it was appropriate the discontinuous predrying method at $40^{\circ}C$ for 7 days and the continuous method at $30^{\circ}C$ for 6 days of which predrying period was taken less time and the loss of pyruvate and thiosulfinate content were low. The predried garlic was stored at $-3.5^{\circ}C$ for 6 months to examine the effect of predrying on quality during storage. Predried garlic had less rotting ratio than control but was not different in sprouting ratio.

In this study, to improve the formability of the rear floor in series stamping process, the method for predicting the temperature of tools and steel sheet is proposed using FE analysis. To do this, tensile tests and straight pulling friction tests of three steel sheets are carried out at temperatures up to $300^{\circ}C$, and the effect of temperature on the tensile properties and the characteristics of friction are examined. The steel sheets have a higher n-value in the temperature range of about $50^{\circ}C$, and it is related to the maximum uniform elongation. Also, the blue shortness occurs in the temperature range of about $150^{\circ}C$. When the temperature is higher than $200^{\circ}C$, the friction coefficient increase with increasing temperature. From the FE-simulation, the effects of the punch temperature considering heat expansion in the number of stamping are examined and discussed. The technique developed in this study fur estimating tool temperature can be used to develop more feasible ways to improve continuous productivity in series stamping process.

Reuterin production efficiency of Lactobacillus reuteri, which converts glycerol into reuterin (antimicrobial substance) under anaerobic condition, was examined. When compared at $32,\;37,\;and\;42^{\circ}C$, production rate and total amount produced increased with increasing incubation temperature. Reuterin production terminated earlier at $42^{\circ}C$ than at $32\;and\;37^{\circ}C$. Presence of various amino acids in the reaction mixture generally decreased reuterin production, whereas proline did not inhibit reuterin production. A continuous-type reactor in which glycerol was passed through the chamber containing L. reuteri cells produced greater amount of reuterin than when batch-type process was used.

The characteristics of aminopeptidase M(ApM) immobilized covalently on Cellufine Formyl and the continuous production of authentic human growth hormone(hGH) from methionyl human growth hormono(met-hGH) using the column reactor packed with immobilized ApM were investigated. Immobilized ApM with the proportion of 2.3mg ApM per 1g Cellufine Formyl gel had the highest met-hGH conversion activity. The optimum pH(7.0) and temperature($55^{\circ}C$) showed no appreciable difference between free and immobilized enzymes and the optimum temperature in continuous operation of the column reactor was also found to be $55^{\circ}C$. Under the conditions at which met-hGH was converted completely to hGH, the yield and productivity were about 77% and 0.8mg hGH/ml$.$h, respectively. In two column reactors of different sizes, met-hGH was converted to hGH with the same conversion rates and hGH yields at the same space velocities. The half-life of the reactor systems at $45^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$ were projected from the continuous operations for 90 days to be 225 days and 81 days, respectively.

운전 온도 $35^{\circ}C$, 평균 유기물부하 $3.1{\;}kgCOD/m^3/day$ 및 수리학적체류시간 10일에서 혐기성 연속회분식공정에 의한 분뇨처리를 수행하였다. 공정의 평가는 대조 소화조로 완전혼합형의 소화조와 병행하여 수행되었다. 본 실험에서 분뇨는 고농도의 암모니아성 질소와 침전성 고형물을 함유하고 있음에도 불구하고 희석 없이 소화가 가능하였다. 혐기성 연속회분식공정에서 고형물은 급속하게 증가하여 완전혼합형의 대조 소화조에 비하여 소화조내 고형물(biomass)의 농도가 2.4배로 증가하였고, 가스발생량에 있어서도 대조 소화조에 비해 현격한 증가를 보였으며 그 증가율은 205~220%에 달했다. 부가적인 침전 시설이 없이도 혐기성 연속회분식공정의 유출수질이 대조 소화조 보다 높게 나타났는데 상징액 기준으로 휘발성고형물 제거율은 혐기성 연속회분식공정이 대조 소화조 보다 12~14% 높았다. 한편, 혐기성 연속회분식공정의 운전인자로 반응/침강비(R/T ratio)를 조사한 결과 R/T비가 1인 경우가 3의 경우보다 가스발생량, 메탄함량 및 유기물 제거율이 약간 높았으나 큰 차이는 없었다. 위의 실험결과들로부터 혐기성 연속회분식공정은 고농도의 암모니아성 질소와 침전성 유기물을 함유하고 있는 분뇨의 처리에 효과적이고 안정적인 공정으로 판단된다.

용탕단조방법에 의해 제조된 Mg-6Al-xZn(x=0, 1, 2)합금의 기계적 성질에 미치는 시효열처리의 영향을 조사한결과 아래와 같은 결론을 얻었다. (1) 주조조직을 관찰한 결과 미세한 수지상조직을 나타냈으며 초정${\alpha}$, 과포화 ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$상 등 세가지 상으로 구성되어 있었다. (2) Mg-6Al-xZn합금은 시효경화성을 나타내었으며 Zn의 첨가량이 증가할수록 전시효구간에서 경도값이 높게 나타났다. (3) 시효조직을 관찰한 결과 $200^{\circ}C$의 시효시에는 불연속 석출물이 대부분 차지했으나 $240^{\circ}C$의 시효온도에서는 수지상 경계에서 시작되는 미세분산된 연속석출물이 대부분 이었다. (4) $240^{\circ}C$에서 시효열처리 한 시편은 연속석출물이 석출됨으로서 $200^{\circ}C$에서의 시효열처리된 시편에 비하여 과시효되는 경향이 작았다. (5) T6열처리 후 인장시험 결과 Zn 첨가량에 따라 강도가 증가하였는데 Mg-6Al-2Zn합금의 경우 인장강도는 248.4 MPa을 나타내었으며 Zn양에 따른 연신율의 감소는 나타나지 않았다.

A two dimensional hierarchical elements are investigated for a use on the incompressible flow computation. The construction of hierarchical elements are explained through the tensor product of 1-D hierarchical functions, and a systematic treatment of essential boundary values has been developed for the degrees of freedom corresponding to higher order terms. The numerical study for the poisson problem showed that the present scheme can increase the convergence and accuracy of finite element solutions, and can be more efficient than the standard first order with many elements. Also, for Stokes and cavity flow cases, solutions from hierarchical elements showed better resolutions and future promises for higher order solutions.

Zinc titanate sorbents for $H_2S$ removal were prepared and their reactivities were studied for high temperature desulfurization of coal gas. Sulfidation of zinc titanates by $H_2S$ sorption was conducted in a packed-bed tubular flow reactor at the temperature range of $550{\sim}750^{\circ}C$, and the results reveal that $650^{\circ}C$ was the optimal sulfidation temperature with respect to desulfurization efficiency and zinc loss. The structural change of sorbent particle was investigated by SEM analysis for the forbents sulfided at $650^{\circ}C$ and subsequently regenerated at $750^{\circ}C$. The stability of desulfurization capability as well as the mechanical stability of the zinc titanates was studied by means of the successive cycles of sulfidation-regeneration of sorbents, and the sorbent samples taken after the 10th cycle were characterized using BET, XRD, and SEM/EDX analyses. Zinc titanate sorbents exhibited nearly constant desulfurization capability in the successive cycle operation.

연속주조공정에서 용강의 통로, 산화방지 및 유체 흐름을 용이하게 하는 역할을 하는 다공성 노즐(porous nozzle)은 용강과의 직접적인 접촉으로 인한 화학 반응 및 용강의 침투현상을 방지하기 위해 불활성 가스를 주입하여 청정강을 제조하는데 이용된다. 공정 중 노즐 막힘으로 인한 배압상승과 열충격에 의한 크랙(crack) 발생이 문제되고 있으며 신뢰성 향상 연구가 요구되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기공크기와 기공분포가 고온안정성 및 내열충격성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고, 내구성 시험 및 고장분석을 통하여 노즐의 신뢰성 향상 방안을 고찰 하였다. 기공을 제어한 시편을 제조하여 기공분포에 따른 고온안정성을 확인하기 위해 실제 사용 조건인 용강온도($1550^{\circ}C$)와 보다 높은 온도($1700^{\circ}C$)에서 각각 고온 시험을 수행하였다. 열충격을 스트레스 인자로 한 내구성 시험을 수행한 후 고장원인을 분석하였으며 열화정도를 확인하기 위해 열처리 온도에 따른 차압 및 굽힘 강도 변화를 비교하였다. 또한 결정상 분석을 통해 온도에 대한 상변화를 확인하였고, 시편의 표면 및 파단면의 미세구조 분석을 통해 크랙 발생여부를 확인하였다. 다공성 노즐의 기공분포가 균일 할수록 고온안정성 및 내열충격성이 향상됨을 확인하였고, 이를 통해 Porous Nozzle의 열화원인으로 판단되는 기공 크기 및 분포에 따른 크랙 발생에 대해 열응력 고찰을 수행하였다.
