In order to minimize the deterioration of osmotic dried apple quality, the characteristics of mass transfer during osmotic dehydration such as solid gain(SG), weight reduction(WR) and moisture loss(ML) were investigated. Moisture and solid transfer were analyzed by Fick's law. The highest (equation omitted)E value was observed with severe browning at $60^{\circ}C.$ The concentration effect on (equation omitted)E were higher at high temperatures than at low temperatures. SG, WR and ML increased as immersion temperature, sugar concentration and immersion time increased. Higher concentration of sucrose led to more sucrose absorption resulting increase in SG. Diffusion coefficients of moisture increased with immersion temperature and sugar concentration. As concentration increased, diffusion coefficients of solids increased at $20^{\circ}C$ while it decreased at $40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C.$ Arrhenius equation was appropriately explain the effect of temperature on diffusion coefficients. Moisture and solid diffusion showed high activation energy in 20 。Brix solution, compared with in 40 and 60 。Brix.

Shiitake mushrooms were dried by hot air, far infrared and freeze dryers in order to compare qualities after drying. When hot air drying was performed with the four temperature variations ranged from $45\;to\;70^{\circ}C$, there was tendency to increase volume retention but decrease rehydration ratio, as drying temperature increased. And the largest amout of 5'-GMP was contained in mushroom dried at $50^{\circ}C$. For far infrared drying, volume retentions were lower but rehydration ratios were higher, as compared with hot air drying at the same temperature. In freeze drying, freezing rate had no influence on volume retention but rehydration ratio was highest value when frozen at $-18^{\circ}C$. As shelf temperature increased(drying rate increased), rehydration ratio increased. Also, contents of 5'-AMP, 5'-GMP and 5'-XMP increased with the increase of freezing rate and drying rate.

During hot air drying of root vegetables such as radish and sweet potatoes, shrinkage and casehardening occurred, and thereby the quality change appeared. Therfore the hot air drying apparatus in which air temperature, relative humidity and air velocity could be controlled was designed, and the drying and shrinking characteristics of radish and sweet potatoes were studied. Also the external factors that affected these characteristics were investigated. The whole drying process of radish and sweet potatoes could be divided into four different drying rate periods, namely constant rate period, first falling rate period, second falling rate period (a) and (b). The shrinking rate curve consisted of four periods nearly corresponding to drying rate periods. The shrinking rate slowly increased in the constant rate period, rapidly increased in the first falling rate period, and reached the highest value in the early period of the second falling rate period. The surface shrinkage was greatly affected by the thickness of sample, relative humidity and initial moisture content. The shrinking ratio was increased with decreasing thickness and increasing relative humidity and initial moisture content.

This experiment was conducted to confirm the possibility of manufacturing artificial Italian ryegrass hay using far-infrared rays in Korea. The machine used in this experiment was a far-infrared ray dryer capable of adjusting temperature, airflow, and far-infrared radiation, and was conducted on Italian ryegrass harvested in May. Conditions for drying were performed by selecting a total of nine conditions, and each condition was set to emission rate of 42 to 45%, and the internal temperature was set to 65℃. The speed of the air flow in the machine was 40-60 m/s, and the overall drying time was 30 minutes for 42% radiation, 25 minutes for 43% radiation, and 20 minutes for 45% radiation. The final dry matter content according to each drying condition was 88.5% on average, and the dry matter content suitable for hay was shown in the all treatment. Looking at the power consumption according to the drying conditions, the lowest was found in the treatment that dried for 20 minutes at 45% radiation. In the drying rate, there was no difference in drying conditions 1 to 5, but a significantly low tendency was shown in conditions 6 to 7. In terms of feed value, CP and IVDMD were higher than raw materials in most drying conditions, and ADF and NDF contents were low, and tended to be high in drying conditions 4, 7, and 8. Through the above results, it was judged that drying conditions 7 and 8 were the most advantageous when considering drying speed, power consumption, and quality.

Drying process in the thin film layer of sludge with the thickness less than a few millimeters has been investigated using the simple one-dimensional model. Thin film drying is usually used to dry the viscous materials like sewage sludge. The thin film layer of sludge is dried on the metallic surface through which thermal energy is supplied to the layer during drying. In order to solve the equations, the mass transfer rate on the drying surface should be determined. The mass flux of evaporated water vapor on the surface is estimated with the formulation given in the literature. The effect of heating temperature, film thickness, and air velocity on drying has been examined to figure out the drying characteristics of the sludge layer.

A sublimation model of the freeze drying process, which accounted for the removal of free water, was presented and used to study the operation conditions of freeze driers for carrot juice. It was found that the shortest drying time was obtained when the condenser temperature and chamber pressure were kept at heir lowest values and the plate temperature was controlled independently so that the scorch and melting constraints were both held throughout the drying period. The effect of sample thickness on the drying time was significant. Optimal policies were investigated experimentally in laboratory freeze dryer.

This study focuses on spalling phenomenon which is the one of the main issues of high strength concrete. The definition, classification and characterization, causes and the reaction mechanism of the spalling were investigated on the basis of previous literatures. The spalling phenomenon occurs when several factors such as sharp temperature increase, high water content, low water/cement ratio and local stress concentration in material combine in the concrete material. On the basis o f the factors, the preventing methods from the spalling are known as decrease of temperature increase, preventing of concrete fragmentation and fast drying of internal moisture. In this study, the controlling method of water content below some critical value was proposed as the most effective spalling-preventing method among the spalling-preventing methods. The spalling phenomenon can be prevented by adjusting the water content in the high strength concrete. Therefore, an enforced drying method is needed to decrease the water content below a critical value. Additional experimental data should be generated to determine the critical value of water content for preventing the spalling.

The changes in amino acid contents of sea mussel and baby clam during drying at 40, 50 and 6$0^{\circ}C$ and storage at low temperature(4$^{\circ}C$) and room temperature(2$0^{\circ}C$) were investigated. Amino acids of 17kinds were analyzed in sea mussel and baby clam. Total amino acids content of raw sample were similar to sea mussel and baby clam(6575.30mg%, 6764mg%), decreased during drying and rate of decreasing was higher in baby clam than that of sea mussel. The content of Glx was highest in sea mussel(790.55mg%) and baby clam(990.89mg%), other amino acids differed from samples. The content of amino acids of low drying temperature(40 and 5$0^{\circ}C$) decreased was higher than that of high drying temperature(6$0^{\circ}C$). The rate of decreasing was higher at room temperature(2$0^{\circ}C$) storage and short storage periods than that of low temperature(4$^{\circ}C$) storage and long storage periods.

In this study, the basic properties of CO₂ immobilized desulfurized gypsum (CFBG) and the possibility of being used as a stimulus for slag cement were reviewed, and performance evaluation was conducted through a concrete mixing test. The main components of CFBG were CaO and SO₃, and CaO and SO₃ increased as the drying temperature increased. The moisture content of undried CFBG was 15.7 %, the drying temperature was 1.7 % and the drying temperature was 0.03 % at 105 ℃. Mortar using CFBG tended to have a lower flow value as the drying temperature increased, and the compressive strength was equivalent to that of the FGB use mixture. As a result of the concrete experiment using CFBG SC, both slump and air volume satisfied the target range after 60 minutes, and the compressive strength tended to increase overall compared to the ternary binder mixture.

Internal mass transfer during osmotic dehydration of carrots in sugar solutions was examined as a function of concentration, temperature and immersion time of those solutions using moisture loss, sugar gain, molality and rate parameter. Influence of osmotic dehydration and blanching on browning reaction of vacuum dried carrots(3% MC: wet basis) was also evaluated. Increasing the concentration and temperature of sugar solutions increased moisture loss, sugar gain, molality and rate parameter. Water loss and sugar gain were rapid in first 4 min and then levelled off. The rate of sugar gain and molality changes on temperature was significant in lower concentration$(20^{\circ}\;Brix)$ compared to higher concentration$(60^{\circ}\;Brix)$. The changes of rate parameter were affected by concentration than by temperature of sugar solutions. Moisture loss during osmotic dehydration using a sugar solution $(60^{\circ}\;Brix,\;80^{\circ}C)$ with 20min immersion time was 55.7%. Effect of osmotic dehydration and blanching before vacuum dried to 3% MC(Wet basis) on browning reaction was significant. Minimum browning reaction during vacuum drying was carried out using pretreatments such as osmotic dehydration in sugar solution$(40^{\circ}\;Brix,\;80^{\circ}C)$ with 16 min immersion time(O.D.=0.09) and blanching with 12 min immersion time at $80^{\circ}C$(O.D.=0.31) compared to control(O.D.=1.59).
