$CO_2$production in fermentation of dongchimi was measured and interrelated with changes in pH and titratable acidity. The effects of salt content and temperature on $CO_2$production rate were analysed. Fermentation of dongchimi showed drastic pH decrease in early stage and subsequent levelling off around 3.9, with linearly increased acidity up to 0.3~0.4% optimum quality. $CO_2$production of dongchimi could be analysed to consist of two consecutive stages of constant rate. The first stage $CO_2$production of higher rate moved to the second stage of lower rate when acidity rose beyond 0.3%. When compared to those of 1 and 2% salt content, dongchimi of 3% salt showed lower $CO_2$production rate in the 1st stage and slower acidity change through the whole fermentation period. However, it resulted in the product of highest $CO_2$accumulation at optimal ripeness because of consistent $CO_2$production of longer 1st stage period and relatively high $CO_2$production rate in 2nd stage. $CO_2$production depended on temperature less compared to acidity change(activation energy: 57.3 and 44.3kJ/mol for $CO_2$production of 1st and 2nd stages, respectively; 79.3kJ/mol for acidity change), which means higher ratio of $CO_2$production rate relative to acidity increase at lower temperature. Slower increase in acidity at low temperature also was shown to extend the period of 1st stage $CO_2$production. Therefore, low temperature fermentation was effective in producing the high $CO_2$content dongchimi at adequate acidity, which is desirable organoleptically.

The earlier studies have analyzed theoretical links between nuclear energy and carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions concerning territorial (or production-based) emissions. Here using the latest available dataset, this study explores the impacts of nuclear energy on production-based and consumption-based CO₂ emission in the era of globalization for the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. The Driscoll-Kraay regression method reveals that nuclear energy is beneficial for the reduction of production-based CO₂ emissions. However, it is revealed that nuclear energy does not reduce consumption-based CO₂ emissions that are traded internationally and hence not comprised in conventional production-based emissions (territory) inventories. Globalization tends to reduce both production-based and demand-based carbon emissions. Finally, Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is validated for both kinds of CO₂ emissions. The findings may deliver practical policy implications related to nuclear energy and CO₂ emissions for selected countries.

Effects of $CO_2$ partial pressure($pCO_2$) on the characteristics of methane production rate and organic matter degradation in anaerobic digestion were investigated by using anaerobic chemostat type reactors at $35{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, at the HRT of 7days. The $pCO_2$ of the reactors was controlled in the range from 0.1 to 0.8 atm. Since the $pCO_2$ in an uncontrolled condition was about 0.4atm, $N_2$ was added for the reactors controlled of $pCO_2$ of between 0.1 and 0.4atm. At $pCO_2$ of 0.5 atm, the methane production rate was approximately 20% more that in an uncontrolled condition of $pCO_2$. Based on the carbon mass balance, it was concluded that methane production was related to the increment of removal organic carbon and consumption of $CO_2$. At $pCO_2$ of 0.5atm, the methane production by the increment of removal substrates increased 13.6%, on the orther hand, hand, the methane production by the conversion of $CO_2$ to methane increased 6.4%.

In order to reduce the compression power and to use the overall energy contained in LNG effectively, a combined cycle is devised and simulated. The combined cycle is composed of two cycles; one is an open cycle of liquid/solid carbon dioxide production cycle utilizing LNG cold energy in $CO_2$ condenser and the other is a closed cycle gas turbine which supplies power to the $CO_2$ cycle, utilizes LNG cold energy for lowering the compressor inlet temperature, and uses the heating value of LNG at the burner. The power consumed for the $CO_2$ cycle is investigated in terms of a solid $CO_2$ production ratio. The present study shows that much reduction in both $CO_2$ compression power (only 35% of the power used in conventional dry ice production cycle) and $CO_2$ condenser pressure could be achieved by utilizing LNG cold energy and that high cycle efficiency (55.3% at maximum power condition) in the gas turbine could be accomplished with the adoption of compressor inlet cooling and regenerator. Exergy analysis shows that irreversibility in the combined cycle increases linearly as a solid $CO_2$ production ratio increases and most of the irreversibility occurs in the condenser and the heat exchanger for compressor inlet cooling. Hence, incoming LNG cold energy to the above components should be used more effectively.

미세조류는 효율적으로 바이오매스를 증가시킬 수 있으며 유용한 생물학적 자원들을 축적할 수 있기 때문에 에너지 및 식품 생산 등 다양한 분야에서 유망한 자원으로써 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 4종의 미세조류(Chlorella vulgaris, Mychonastes homosphaera, Coelastrella sp., Coelastrella vacuolata)를 선정하여 이들의 성장, CO2 동화, CO2 농도에 따른 미세조류의 지질 생성 특성을 분석하였다. 각 미세조류의 크기는 C. vulgaris가 가장 작았으며, M. homosphaera, C. vacuolata, Coelastrella sp. 순으로 큰 크기를 나타냈다. C. vulgaris는 다른 3종의 미세조류와 비교해서 크기가 가장 작으며 성장과 CO2 동화 속도가 가장 빠르게 나타났다. 또한, 초기 바이오매스가 증가함에 따라 CO2 동화 속도는 최대 9.62 mmol·day-1·l-1를 나타냈으며, 다른 3종의 미세조류(약 3 mmol·day-1·l-1)보다 3배 이상 높은 CO2 동화 속도를 보여주었다(p < 0.05). M. homosphaera를 제외하고 3종의 미세조류는 CO2 농도와 CO2 동화 비속도 사이에 양의 상관관계(positive correlation)를 나타냈다. 특히, C. vulgaris는 다른 3종의 미세조류와 비교해 더 높은 CO2 동화 비속도를 보여주었다(14.6 vs. ≤ 11.9 mmol·day-1·l-1). 4종의 미세조류는 CO2 농도가 증가함에 따라 지질 함량이 증가했으며 그 중에서 C. vulgaris는 최대 18 mg·l-1를 나타내 다른 3종의 미세조류(최대 12 mg·l-1)보다 최소 50% 이상 높은 지질 함량을 보여주었다. 4종의 미세조류 중 C. vulgaris가 효율적으로 CO2를 동화하며 다른 미세조류보다 높은 바이오매스와 지질 생산이 가능함을 시사한다.

Purpose - Carbon emission standards are based on the "production-based carbon emissions" generated by the production of goods in the relevant country which were the existing measurement methods. However, can such carbon emissions measurement standards be established international? For example, some of the goods produced in developing countries are produced for the demand of developed countries. The method of measuring carbon emission based on the final demand of a certain country is called "consumption-based carbon emissions." This study compares productionand consumption-based CO₂ emissions according to economic growth in ninety-three countries categorized by income level. Design/methodology - Our empirical model considers the difference between production- and consumption-based CO₂ emissions according to economic growth. Also, our model investigated whether the EKC hypothesis in most of the previous studies that had been based on production-based emissions was also established in the consumption-based emission model. Considering the continuous characteristics of CO₂, we utilized the generalized method of moments (GMM), specifically a system GMM econometric technique because CO₂ in the previous period can affect CO₂ in the present period. Findings - Our main findings can be summarized as follows: The results show that for the consumption-based CO₂ emissions model, CO₂ continuously increases as economic growth increases in the upper-middle income countries. The inverted U-shaped result was found in the case of the production-based model. However, in the lower-income countries, an inverted-U shape in which CO₂ emissions decrease at some point as the economy grows in the production-based model does not appear. On the other hand, in the consumption-based model, an inverted U-shaped result was obtained when estimating with system-GMM. Additionally, the proportion of manufacturing, energy imports, and energy consumption had an effect on both the production- and the consumption-based model regardless of the group's CO₂ emissions. On the basis of such assessments, policymakers need to consider not only production- but also consumption-based options. Originality/value - Previous studies have mainly focused on production-based CO₂ emissions, with most of them revolving around economic growth or the effect of various social and economic factors on CO₂ emissions. However, this study considers the relationship with economic growth using consumption-based emissions as a dependent variable by classifying ninety-three countries by income level.

According to the 5th Climate Change Report, global average temperature in 2081~2100 will increase 1.8℃ based on RCP 4.5 and 3.7℃ based on RCP 8.5 from the current climate value (IPCC Working Group I AR5). As temperature is expected to increase due to global warming and the intensity and frequency of rainfall are expected to increase, damage to crops is expected, and countermeasures must be taken. This study intends to evaluate rice growth in terms of nitrogen utilization efficiency according to future climate change conditions. In this experiment, Oryza sativa cv. Shindongjin were planted at the SPAR facility of the NICS in Wanju-gun, Jeollabuk-do on June 10, and were planted and grown according to the standard cultivation method. Cultivation conditions are high temperature, high CO₂ (current temperature+4.7℃·CO₂ 800ppm), high temperature (current temperature+4.7℃·CO₂ 400ppm), current climate (current tempreture·CO₂ 400 ppm). Nitrogen was varied as 0, 9, 18 kg/10a. The N content and C/N ratio of all rice leaves, stems, and seeds increased at high temperature, and the N content and C/N ratio decreased under high temperature and high CO₂ conditions com pared to high temperature. Compared to the current climate, NUE increases by about 8% under high temperature and high CO₂ conditions and by about 2% under high temperature conditions. This seems to be because the increase in temperature and CO₂ induced the increase in biomass. ANUE related to yield decreased by about 70% compared to the current climate under high temperature conditions, and decreased by about 45% at high temperature and high CO₂, showing a tendency to decrease compared to high temperature. This appears to be due to reduced fertility and poor ripening due to high temperature stress. However, as the nitrogen increased, the number of ears and the number of grains increased, slightly offsetting the production reduction factor.

Interest in hydrogen production to respond to climate change is increasing. Until now, hydrogen has been mainly produced through the SMR (Steam Methane Reforming) process using natural gas. A large amount of CO₂ is emitted in the hydrogen production process through SMR, and the gas flow including CO₂ generated in the SMR process has different characteristics for each emission source, so it is important to apply a suitable CO₂ capture process. In the case of PSA tail gas or synthesis gas, the applicability of an amine-based process has been confirmed or demonstrated close to a commercial level. However, in the case of the flue gas generated from the reformer, it is still difficult to apply the conventional amine-based process because the partial pressure of CO₂ is relatively low. Energy-saving innovative absorbents such as phase separation absorbents can be a solution to these difficulties.

With the aim of increasing the $CoQ_{10}$ production in mass culture, the effect of aeration-agitation on the $CoQ_{10}$ production using Rhodobactor sphaeroides was investigated in a l-L bioreactor. The maximum $CoQ_{10}$ production was 1.69 mg/g of dry cell weight under conditions of 50 Lux, $30^{\circ}C$, 300 rpm, and 5-vvm aeration. The $CoQ_{10}$ production was improved to produce 2.91 mg/g of dry cell weight under reduced conditions of agitation speed (200 rpm) and aeration rate (0.2 vvm). When R. sphaeroides was cultivated under more reduced DO levels during the exponential phase of the cell, the $CoQ_{10}$ production yield of 3.88-mg/g dry cell weight was the maximum obtained. Therefore, poorer conditions of aeration-agitation resulted in higher production of $CoQ_{10}$, and thus DO content was a crucial factor in the production of $CoQ_{10}$. Accordingly, it was necessary to control the DO concentration in order to enhance the $CoQ_{10}$ biosynthesis within a large-scale production.

전 세계적으로 지구 온난화의 주요원인인 $CO_2$ 발생에 대한 규제가 강화되고 있다. 반 환경산업으로 인식되는 건설 산업의 주요자재로서 다량의 $CO_2$를 배출하는 콘크리트는 생산과정에서 발생된 $CO_2$ 배출량 감소에 대한 필요성이 인식되었다. 이 논문에서는 콘크리트를 기초로 하여 자재생산, 운송, 제조단계에서 발생하는 $CO_2$ 배출량을 평가하기 위한 시스템을 구축하고, $CO_2$ 배출량을 효율적으로 저감하고 평가하기 위한 프로그램을 개발 하였다. 평가결과, 대부분의 $CO_2$ 배출량은 자재생산단계에서 발생했으며, 자재, 운송, 제조단계에서 배출된 $CO_2$ 배출량에 대하여 정량적으로 평가하였다. 더욱이, $CO_2$ 배출량을 저감하기 위하여 각 단계별로 친환경 기술을 적용하여 평가가 가능한 이 평가시스템은 콘크리트 생산에 따른 $CO_2$ 배출량을 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 시스템으로 제안할 수 있으며, 국내 레미콘생산업체는 $CO_2$ 배출량 평가를 하기 위해 이 시스템을 사용할 수 있다.
