To check effects of operating variables on reaction characteristics of WGS catalyst for SEWGS process, water gas shift reaction tests were carried out in a pressurized fluidized bed reactor using commercial WGS catalyst and sand(as a substitute for $CO_2$ absorbent) as bed materials. Simulated syngas(mixed with $N_2$) was used as a reactant gas. Operating temperature was $210^{\circ}C$ and operating pressure was 20 bar. WGS catalyst content, steam/CO ratio, gas velocity, and syngas concentration were considered as experimental variables. CO conversion increased as the catalyst content and steam/CO ratio increased. CO conversion at fluidized bed condition was higher than that of fixed bed condition. However, CO conversion were maintained almost same value within the fluidized bed condition. CO conversion decreased as the syngas concentration increased. The optimum operation condition was confirmed and long time water gas shift reaction test up to 24 hours at the optimum operating conditions was carried out.

Gypsum-wood composites were made by introducing inorganic substances into wood using calcium chloride, first treating solution, and sodium sulfate, secondary treating solution, by double diffusion process under atmospheric pressure at room temperature. The process conducted as follows: water saturated specimens were soaked in calcium chloride solutions at several concentration. Then the specimens were soaked further in saturated sodium sulfate solution, and they were leached in flowing tap water for 24h. To attain sufficient weight percent gain (WPG) values, the suitable concentration of calcium chloride and soaking time in saturated sodium sulfate solution were 20% and 48h, respectively. Inorganic substances were produced mainly in the lumina of tracheides. It was made sure that these substances were dihydrate gypsum($CaSO_4$ $2H_2O$) by X -ray microanalysis (SEM-EDX). The composites had good fire resistance due to low heat transfer rate of gypsum formed in wood. However, the composites had little decay resistances, because they showed high weight losses by test fungi attacks.

기존 연구에서 초임계$CO_2$($scCO_2$)-물-순활골재 반응을 이용한 폐콘크리트 순환골재의 중성화(pH 저감) 처리에서 가장 문제시되었던 오랜 처리시간의 한계(최대 50일)를 최소 3시간까지 단축하는 배치실험과 칼럼실험을 수행하였다. 모르타르(골재를 포함하지 않은 시멘트+모래 혼합체)와 모르타르에 골재를 포함하는 2 종류의 순환골재를 실험에 사용하였다. 입자 크기별로 분류한 세 종류의 폐모르타르 시료에 대하여 $scCO_2$-물-폐모르타르 반응 시간을 1시간부터 24시간까지 다하게 설정하여 반응시킨 후, 폐모르타르의 pH가 지속적으로 9.8 이하로 낮게 유지되는 최소 반응시간을 결정하는 용출 배치실험을 실시하였다. 실제 현장에서 다량의 순환골재를 중성화 처리하는 경우 비평형상태에서 용출이 발생하는데, 이러한 kinetic 효과를 고려한 순환골재의 실제 pH 저감 효율을 측정하고자 대형 칼럼 연속 용출 실험을 실시하였다. 배치실험의 경우, 고압셀 내부에서 3차 증류수 70 mL와 순환골재 시료 35 g을 혼합한 후 100 bar, $50^{\circ}C$ 조건에서 1시간 ~ 24시간 동안 반응시켜 중성화 처리하였다. 처리 후 건조시킨 폐모르타르 시료 10 g + 증류수 50 ml의 비율(1:5 비율)로 혼합하여 10분 동안 150 rpm으로 교반한 후 정치시키고, 총 15일 동안 용출시간 별로 용출수의 pH를 측정하였다. 중성화 처리 후 순환골재의 광물학적 변화를 확인하기 위하여 처리 전/후 XRD, TG/DTA 등의 분석을 실시하였다. 대형 칼럼(직경 16 cm, 높이 1 m) 용출실험을 위해 순환골재 2 종류를 대상으로 3시간 동안 중성화 처리한 순환골재와 처리하지 않은 순환골재로 칼럼을 충진한 후, 증류수를 칼럼 상부에 설치된 스프링클러를 통하여 일정하게 총 220 L를 주입하였다. 칼럼에 충진된 순환골재를 통과하여 하부로부터 유출되는 유출수의 pH와 $Ca^{2+}$ 농도를 시간별로 측정하였다. 배치실험 결과 폐모르타르 시료(직경 10 ~ 13 mm)의 경우 3시간의 중성화 처리에 의해 용출액의 pH가 법적 허용기준인 9.8이하를 유지하는 것으로 나타났다. $scCO_2$ 반응 후 골재의 XRD, TG/DTA 분석 결과, 중성화 처리에 의해 시멘트 모르타르의 주성분인 포틀랜다이트($Ca(OH)_2$) 성분이 감소한 반면 방해석($CaCO_3$)이 2차 광물로 생성됨을 알 수 있었다. 칼럼 실험 결과 중성화 처리한 순환골재의 용출수는 kinetic 효과를 고려한 경우에도 굵은골재와 잔골재 모두 용출수의 pH가 9.8 이하로 유지되어, $scCO_2$를 이용한 순환골재의 3시간 중성화 처리에 의해 건설현장에서 재활용이 가능한 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Objectives of this study were to determine effects of insulin on acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) activity and correlate this activity with relative amounts of ACC in MAC-T cells. MAC-T cells were grown in Medium 199 supplemented with fetal bovine serum (5%), cortisol ($1{\mu}g/ml$), and insulin ($1{\mu}g/ml$). At confuluence, the cells were transferred to $100mm^2$ culture dishes coated with the extracelluar matrix. After 10 h of incubation, the media were replaced with media without fetal bovine serum and the concentration of insulin was lowered to 5 ng/ml. After 24 h, the media were changed to contain the varying concentrations of insulin and incubations continued for 48 h. The addition of insulin resulted in increases in the specific activity of ACC. The maximal effects of insulin on the ACC activity occurred at concentrations of insulin, 1,000 ng/ml. In contrast, the relative change in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in response to increasing insulin concentration was minimal as compared to the effects of insulin on ACC. Transblot and enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) analysis indicated that the increase in ACC activity in MAC-T cells caused by insulin were due to actual increases in amounts of enzyme.

As new small scale LFG (landfill gas) energy project model which can improve economic feasibility limited due to the economy of scale, LFG-Microturbine combined heat and power system with $CO_2$ fertilization into greenhouses was proposed and investigated including basic design process prior to the system installation at Gwang-ju metro sanitary landfill. The system features $CH_4$ enrichment for stable microturbine operation, reduction of compressor power consumption and low CO emission, and $CO_2$ supplement into greenhouse for enhancement plant growth. From many other researches, high $CO_2$ concentration was found to enhance $CO_2$ assimilation (also known as photosynthesis reaction) which converts $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ to sugar using light energy. For small scale landfills which produce LFG under $3\;m^3$/min, among currently available prime movers, microturbine is the most suitable power generation system and its low electric efficiency can be improved with heat recovery. Besides, since its exhaust gas contains very low level of harmful contaminants to plant growth such as NOx, CO and SOx, microturbine exhaust gas is a suitable and economically advantageous $CO_2$ source for $CO_2$ fertilization in greenhouse. The LFG-Microturbine combined heat and power generation system with $CO_2$ fertilization into greenhouse gas to enhance plant growth is technologically and economically feasible and improves economical feasibility compared to other small scale LFG energy project model.

Objectives: Here we investigated the anti-lipogenic potential of kaurenoic acid (KA), a diterpene derived from Aralia continentalis, in a cellular model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Methods: HepG2 cells were treated with palmitate for 24h to induce intracellular lipid accumulation. To assess the influence of KA on steatotic HepG2 cells, various concentration of KA was co-administered. After palmitate treatment, Intracellular triglyceride content was measured. Expression level of several lipogenic genes, sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor-1c (SREBP-1c), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), fatty acid synthase (FAS), and stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD-1) were measured using Western-blot analyses or RT-PCR. Results: Palmitate markedly increased intracellular triglyceride level and expression of related lipogenic genes in HepG2 cells, and which was relieved by co-administered KA. Conclusions: It is conceivable that that KA may have a pharmacological potential to reduce lipid accumulation in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

This paper aims to describe the characteristics of air pollution using air pollutants concentration and meteorological data observed at Kimhae from December 1996 to November, 1997. The results are as follows : The concentration distribution of sulfur dioxide($SO_2$), carbon monoxide(CO), particulate matter(PM-10), and nitrogen dioxide($NO_2$) is high during the late fall and winter and low during the summer, but ozone concentration is low during the winter season and high during summer season except Jangma period and these distributions appear to be closely connected with insolation and the number of clear day. Diurnal variation of concentrations for sulfur dioxide, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide are high during the rush hours and nighttime and low during the daytime and these variations are distinct toward the winter season. And diurnal variation of nitrogen dioxide concentration has also same pattern and these patterns are closely related to the increasing traffic volume at rush hours. Diurnal variation of ozone concentration is generally increase for daytime and decrease for the late afternoon and are closely related to the insolation and photochemical reaction. The 24 hour average concentrations of air pollutant observed at Kimhae represented a positive correlation and a negative correlation for $O_3$ and also a negative correlation for the meteorological elements such as wind speed and cloud cover.
