In this study, it was observed that hydrogen productivity varied with changes of input g1ucose concentration and dilution rate in FBR( Fixed Bed Reactor), and CSTR(Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor). We evaluated and compared reaction rate Parameters and internal external and overall mass transfer resistances of immobilized carrier in both reactors. Apparent $K_m$ decreased with increasing dilution rate in FBR but showed a constant value above $0.4h^{-1}$ of dilution rate in CSTR. The experimental results in FBR showed nearly analogous to those in CSTR, however, the performance of FBR resulted in lower hydrogen productivity and an external effectiveness factor but a higher internal effectiveness factor than in CSTR. The overall effectiveness factor obtained with various input 91ucose concentrations showed similar values in both reactors.

Fermentation characteristics of D-xylose into xylitol by Candida mogii ATCC 18364, a potential xylitol producer from rice straw hemicellulose hydrolyzates, were investigated. The influences of the most important operational variables on xylitol production were examined. The best results in xylitol production were obtained in shake-flask fermentations when 3.0 g/L initial cell concentration of 12 hr-old cells grown in D-glucose containing medium were used as inoculum. The oxygen availability is a critical factor in xylose fermentation, therefore, xylose conversion into xylitol was investigated in a 2-L fermenter at different stirring rates. Maximum xylitol production was obtained with an aeration rate of 1 vvm at a stirring rate of 200 rpm.

One of the most important factors which affect the impact strength of high impact polystyrene (HIPS) is the rubber-phase particle size and size distribution. In this study, HIPS was prepared from a batch reactor to observe the influence of reaction conditions such as rubber content, agitation speed and prepolymerization time on the particle size and size distribution. Measurements concerning the particle size distribution were conducted using a particle size analyzer. Due to swelling, the particle suspended in toluene increases in size with lower heat-treatment temperature and shorter heat-treatment time, while the particle in methyl ethyl ketone shows quite reasonable size without any effort of heat-treatment. As rubber content increases, the average particle size increases substantially, but the increase in agitation speed at lower rubber contents does not have much influence on the size. However, the polystyrene-phase particles occluded in rubber-phase become more uniform as agitation speed increases. Longer prepolymerization time produces rubber-phase particles with narrower particle size distribution.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize alcohol fermentation of concentrated grape juice. Sugar concentration ($X_1$), agitation rate ($X_2$) and fermentation time ($X_3$) were chosen as the independent variables of the central composite design (CCD). Dependent variables were alcohol content ($Y_1$) and total acidity ($Y_2$). To optimize two dependent variables, desirability function was defined as $Y_1$=10.0% and $Y_2$=minimum. The optimum conditions for alcohol fermentation were $19.98^{\circ}Bx$ (sugar concentration), 104.1 rpm (agitation rate) and 89.67 hr (fermentation time). The predicted responses were 10.0% in alcohol content and 0.86% in total acidity. The coefficients of determination ($R^2$) were 0.948 and 0.958, which indicate that the model fit was highly significant (p<0.001). The experimental values were 10.1% for alcohol content and 0.88% for total acidity. These values were similar to the predicted values from RSM.

Recently, we isolated the mutant Kluyveromyces marxianus 36907-FMEL1, which demonstrated improved xylose reductase activity as compared to the parental strain, K. marxianus ATCC 36907. Effects of agitation conditions on xylitol production were verified using a bioreactor system. Under an agitation speed of 400 rpm, K. marxianus 36907-FMEL1 exhibited the highest xylitol yield (0.57 g/g) and productivity ($0.64g{\cdot}l^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$) at $30^{\circ}C$. When the fermentation temperature was increased to $40^{\circ}C$, interestingly, xylitol yield and productivity were found to be increased to 21% (0.64 g/g) and 58% ($0.90g{\cdot}l^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$), respectively, under the optimized agitation conditions.

In order to apply the silver cementation method using Fe powder from pregnant thiourea leaching solution. Parameters such as the amount of Fe powder addition, agitation speed, and temperature were investigated. The silver cementation rate was increased by the increasing of Fe powder addition, agitation speed, and temperature. The highest silver cementation rate was found when the addition of Fe powder was 50 g/L at the agitation speed of 500 rpm. The silver cementation rate increase with increasing temperature according to the Arrhenius equation and obeys $1^{st}$ order kinetics. The activation energy from the kinetics data was found to be between 13.73 KJ/mol and 17.02 KJ/mol. In the XRD analysis, goethite was detected in the precipitate of the thiourea leach solution. This indicates that an oxidation-reduction reaction had occurred in the thiourea solution due to the addition of the Fe powder.

Metal emulsions have been studied for several decades as a method of increasing the efficiency of the steelmaking process. This study was performed using a water model, observable at room temperature, to compensate for the disadvantages of the high-temperature experiment, the results of which are difficult to observe visually. As a substitute for metal-in-slag emulsions, experiments were conducted by dropping distilled water into silicone oil and comparing the results with the results of a calculation by momentum balance equations. The descending velocity of the water droplet decreased as the diameter of the droplet and viscosity of the fluid (silicon oil) increased. To simulate the descending velocity of a water droplet in silicon oil under stirring conditions, the flow rate of the fluid (silicon oil) was measured by particle image velocimetry (PIV) methods. The calculation of the descending velocity of the water droplet was in good agreement with the measured values, with and without stirring a viscous silicone oil.

Optimal agitation speed and aeration rate for the production of gellan by Sphingomnas paucibilis NK2000 in a 7 l bioreactor were found to be 400 rpm and 1.0 vvm. The best time for glucose feeding into the medium for enhanced production of gellan by S. paucibilis NK2000 was 36 hr after cultivation. The concentrations of gellan produced by S. paucibilis NK2000 from 1) 20.0 g/l glucose without additional feeding, 2) 20.0 g/l glucose with feeding of 200.0 g/l glucose at 36 hr, in which the final concentration in the medium was 10.0 g/l, 3) 20 g/l glucose with feeding of 200.0 g/l glucose and a shift in an agitation speed from 400 to 600 rpm, 4) 20.0 g/l glucose with feeding of 200.0 g/l glucose at 36 hr and shifts in an agitation speed from 400 to 600 rpm and an aeration rate from 1.0 to 1.5 vvm, 5) and 20.0 g/l glucose with feeding of 200.0 g/l glucose at 36 hr and shifts in an agitation speed from 400 to 600 rpm and an aeration rate from 1.0 to 2.0 vvm, were 5.19, 5.74, 6.73, 7.93, and 9.40 g/l, respectively, and their conversion rates from glucose were 26.0, 19.1, 22.4, 26.4, and 31.3%, respectively. Compared to those developed using a normal process, production of gellan by S. paucibilis NK2000 from 20.0 g/l glucose was 1.81 times higher, and and its conversion rate was 1.20 times higher when the optimized process developed in this study was used.

The effects of equivalent of iron powder, particle size, agitation speed on the removal efficiency of copper ion were investigated by adding iron powder as cementation agents to simulated mine drainage solution with 117.15 mg/L Cu ion. The 50 % of Cu was removed at 90 min with 2 equivalent of iron powder while more than 99 % of Cu was removed at 60 min with 16 equivalent at 200 rpm and $20^{\circ}C$. The removal efficiencies of Cu ion were not different using 2 equivalent of $48{\mu}m$ and $150{\mu}m$ iron powder, and the removal efficiency increased rapidly with increasing the agitation speed to more than 400 rpm. This lower removal efficiency resulted from agglomeration of iron powder observed by SEM, which could reduce the effective specific surface area. More than 99 % of copper ion was removed using 2 equivalent of $48{\mu}m$ iron powder at 60 min, 600 rpm and $20^{\circ}C$.
