In this study, drying and carbonization experiment was conducted in a fluidized bed reactor according to the variations in gas velocity, particle size, and reactor temperature. As a result, the weight loss rates of sludge by drying in the fixed bed and fluidized bed type dryer showed that drying in the fluidized bed was about 6 times faster than drying in the fixed bed, and the weight loss rates of sludge by carbonization in the fixed bed and fluidized bed type reactor showed that carbonization in the fluidized bed was about 4 times faster than drying in the fixed bed. This implies that carbonization in the fluidized bed was completed within 10 minutes. Although the amount of char decreased with the increase of carboniration temperature, the amount of char became similar at upper 873K. Also, the amount of char decreased with increasing gas velocity. Consequently, it could be efficient that slow fluidization should be maintained within the range of fluidization in case of fluidized carbonization of sewage sludge at 873K.

석탄 연소로 내에서는 어떠한 방식으로든 NH- 라디칼이 존재하게 된다. 즉, 배가스 처리 공정에서는 SNCR 방식에 의해 질소산화물 (NO) 저감할 경우 환원제로써 사용되는 암모니아 또는 요소와 같은 물질은 고온의 연소로에서 NH- 라디칼을 생성하게 되기도 하며, 순환유동층 연소로처럼 석탄을 원료로 사용하는 연소로에서는 석탄내에 포함되어 있는 N, H와 같은 원소들이 휘발하여 NH- 라디칼이 생성되기도 한다.(중략)

In this study, the hydrogen chloride removal using K-based dry sorbents ($K_2CO_3/Al_2O_3$, KEPRI, Korea) was studied with varying the pressure in a fixed bed reactor (15 cm tall bed with 0.5 cm I.d.). Working temperature was $400^{\circ}C$ and feed gas concentration was 750 ppm (HCl vol%, $N_2$ balance). The chloride sorption capacity of sorbent increases with increasing pressure (1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 bar). Also, after forming KCl crystal by reaction with $K_2CO_3$ and HCl, owing to the strong bonding energy, sorbent regeneration was practically impossible. Its optical, physical and chemical characterizations were evaluated by SEM, EDAX, BET, TGA and XRD. At $400^{\circ}C$ and 20 bar condition, working condition for the dehalogenation process after gasification, K-based dry sorbent showed high HCl sorption capacity and HCl/$N_2$ separation performances comparing with Ca-based and Mg-based dry sorbents.

For describing the bipolar packed-bed electrode cell filled with graphite pellete electrode, the application of the model of equivalent circuit was studied. The ratio between the Faradaic current through bipolar electrodes and the applied current was dependent on the resistance coefficient, specific conductivity of electrolyte, and electrolyte circulation rate. The ratio of the Faradaic current through bipolar electrodes to the applied current increased with the applied current(or cell voltage), but decreased with the increase of electrolytic conductivity and circulation rate of the electrolyte.

Effects of methionine on cephalosporin C(CPC) production in a fluidized-bed bioreactor were investigated using bioparticles of Cephalosporium acremonium. Since methionine was found to be an important metabolic regulator on the synthesis of cephalosporin C, the effects of its concentration in the cuture broth and feeding mode to the bioreactor were studied. It was observed that the presence of initial methionine was essential for higher cephalosporin C production and there existed an optimal content of methionine. Carbon consumption rate also increased significantly under the presence of methionine. Production of cephalosporin C was most active when methionine was exhausted in the broth; however its additional feeding did not enhance the antibiotic production in the fluidized-bed bioreactor as much as expected. It was therfore considered important to feed an optimal content of methionine at the early operating stage for a higher cephalosporin C production in a fluidized-bed bioreactor. An interesting thing to note was that titre of the antibiotic with reused bioparticles was about 2 times higher in the methionine containing medium than that without methionine. Therefore repeated use of bioparticles, with an optimal content of methionine, was believed to be very useful to enhance to process productivity.

본 연구에서는 DNA의 상보적인 결합을 이용하여 DNA 혼성화 반응을 감지할 수 있는 SH형 SAW 센서를 개발하였다. 측정에 사용된 DNA는 15개의 염기를 가진 올리고 뉴클레오티드를 사용하였으며 이에 대해 상보적 결합이 가능한 염기서열을 가진 것과 그렇지 않은 미스매치 형태의 DNA 올리고뉴클레오티드를 이용하여 DNA 혼성화 반응 특성을 측정하였다. SH형 SAW 센서는 압전 단결정 $LiTaO_{3}$를 사용하여 100 MHz 발진되는 형태로 제작하였으며, 센서의 지연선 위에 Ti/Au 층을 증착하여 SH기가 수식된 탐침 DNA의 고정화가 가능하게 하였다. 제작된 센서는 Au가 증착된 박막위에 탐침 DNA를 SAM 방법으로 고정화 시켰을 경우와 고정화된 탐침 DNA와 표적 DNA와의 혼성화 반응을 시키고 난 후의 센서의 주파수 변화를 각각 측정하였다. 개발된 DNA 혼성화 반응 측정용 SH형 SAW센서는 DNA 혼성화 특성에 기인한 질량하중 효과에 따른 안정적인 주파수 변화를 나타내었다.

A number of experiments were conducted in order to investigate the COD removal rate according to the biofilm thickness in a Fluidized-Bed Biofilm Reactor(FBBR). The following conditions were fixed during the experiments: superficial upflow velocity was 0.47cm/sec, operating temperature was $22{\pm}1{\circ}C$ and pH was about $7{\pm}0.1$. The synthetic wastewater based on glucose was used as a substrate. The COD removal efficiencies were shown as 73% and 95%, respectively, when organic loading rate was increased from $10kgCOD\;/\;{\textrm{m}^3}$.day to $80kgCOD\;/\;{\textrm{m}^3}$.day. Andrew's model of substrate removal rate which was commonly used in fixed-biofilm reactor was transformed and applied in this FBBR experiment to predict substrate removal rate and gave 85% agreement with the experimental values.

Alkaline protease for the hydrolysis of egg yolk protein was immobilized on five carriers - Duolite A568, Celite R640, Dowex-1, Dowex 50W and Silica gel R60. Duolite A568 showed a maximum immobilization yield of 24.7%. Optimum pH for the free and immobilized enzyme was pH 8 and 9, respectively. However, no change was observed in optimum temperature ($50^{\circ}C$). Thermal stability was observed in immobilized enzymes compared to free enzymes. The immobilized enzyme retained 86% activity after 10 cycle operations in a repeated batch process. The effect of flow rate on the stability of enzyme activity in continuous packed-bed reactor was investigated. Lowering flow rate increased the stability of the immobilized enzyme. After 96 hr of continuous operation in a packed-bed reactor, the immobilized enzyme retained 83 and 61% activity when casein and egg yolk were used as a raw materials, respectively.

Immobilized cellulase on weak ion exchange resin showed a typical Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Immobilized cellulase had better stability with respect to pH and temperature than free cellulase. Kinetics of thermal inactivation on free and immobilized cellulase followed first order rate, and immobilized cellulase had a longer half-life than free cellulase. The initial rate method was used to characterize the kinetic parameters of free and immobilized enzyme. The Michaelis-Menten constant $K_m$ was higher for the immobilized enzyme than it was for the free enzyme. The effect of the recirculation rate on cellulose degradation was studied in a recycling packed-bed reactor. In a continuous packed-bed reactor, the increasing flow rate of cellulose decreased the conversion efficiency of cellulose at different input lactose concentrations. Continuous operation for five days was conducted to investigate the stability of long term operation. The retained activity of the immobilized enzymes was 48% after seven days of operation.
