In this study, non-catalytic transesterification from rapeseed oil using supercritical methanol was carried out by varying the operation parameters such as temperature ($320{\sim}365{^{\circ}C}$), time (0~20 min), pressure (10~35 MPa), molar ratio of oil to methanol (1 : 15~60) and agitation speed (0~500 rpm). In order to evaluate the effects of reaction parameters on the content of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), we carried out the study using a batch reactor. The content of FAMEs increased when the temperature increased. However, the content of FAMEs decreased with temperature above $335^{\circ}C$ and time above 5 min. The content of FAMEs increased with increasing the molar ratio of methanol to oil but the content of FAMEs was slightly affected by molar ratio of oil to methanol above 1 : 45 and pressure above 20 MPa. It was found that the agitation speed above 100 rpm slightly affected the content of FAMEs. The highest content of FAMEs in biodiesel (95%) was obtained under the reaction conditions: temperature of 335 ${^{\circ}C}$, time of 10 min, pressure of 20 MPa, molar ratio of 1 : 45 (oil to methanol) and agitation speed of 250 rpm.

In this study, non-catalytic transesterification using supercritical methanol was performed for preparation of biodiesel from palm oil. In order to investigate the effects of reaction parameters such as molar ratio of methanol to oil(30:1~60:1), pressure(8~25 MPa), temperature($320{\sim}350^{\circ}C$), agitation speed(0~1,000 rpm) and time(0~20 min) on the content of fatty acid methyl esters(FAMEs), we carried out the study using a batch reactor. With increasing molar ratio of methanol to oil, the content of FAMEs increased. However, the content of FAMEs was little affected by molar ratio above 45 and pressure above 20 MPa. The content of FAMEs increased when the temperature increased. However, the content of FAMEs decreased with temperature above at $350^{\circ}C$ and with time above 5 min. It was found that the agitation speed above 500 rpm scarcely affected the content of FAMEs. The highest content of FAMEs in biodiesel(95%) was obtained under the reaction conditions: temperature of $335^{\circ}C$, pressure of 20 MPa, molar ratio of 45:1(methanol to palm oil), agitation speed of 500 rpm and time of 10 min.

The changes in the mechanical properties according to the width of the tool shoulder, rotation speed and moving speed in friction stir welding (FSW) are evaluated using Al 6061-T6. The results indicated that the tensile strength value increases with increasing rotation speed. The higher the moving speed of the tool shoulder, the lower the tensile strength, regardless of the tool type. A higher tensile strength value was generally obtained with a tool shoulder diameter of 12mm (TSD12) than with 8mm. When the moving and rotation speeds exceed a limiting value, a stabilization stage is reached, in which (the tool shoulder diameter?) no longer affects the material properties. At a tool shoulder diameter of 8mm (TSD8), the material properties are decreased and the mixture of material in the welding area is incomplete in comparison with the tool type of TSD12. The tensile strength value is decreased at a rotation speed of 1500 rpm. As a result, a rotation speed higher than the threshold value is needed in order for and the transition temperature to be reached, which allows the complete mixing of the material in the welding area.

In the pyroprocessing of spent nuclear fuels, fuel materials are recovered by electrochemical reactions on the surface of electrodes as well as stirring the electrolyte in electrolytic cells such as electrorefiner, electroreducer and electrowinner. The system with this equipment should first be scaled-up in order to commercialize the pyroprocessing. So in this study, the scale-up for those electrolytic cells was studied to design a large-scale system which can be employed in a commercial process in the future. Basically the dimensions of both electrolytic cells and electrodes should be enlarged on the basis of the geometrical similarity. Then the criterion of constant power input per unit volume, characterizing the fluid behavior in the cells, was introduced in this study and a calculation process based on trial-and-error methode was derived, which makes it possible to seek a proper speed of agitation in the electrolytic cells. Consequently examples of scale-up for an arbitrary small scale system were shown when the criterion of constant power input per unit volume and another criterion of constant impeller tip speed were respectively applied.

A scaling up study for the exopolysaccharide (EPS) production by submerged culture of Ganoderma lucidum was carried out in jar fermenter systems (2.6, 20 and 75 L) under bi-staged pH process. Profiles of dissolved oxygen (DO) and volumetric coefficient of oxygen transfer ($k_La$) as a function of operating variables (agitation speed and aeration rate) was investigated, and a correlation between $k_La$ and operating variables was analysed statistically. Under bi-staged pH process, no limitation of DO was observed at agitation speeds tested in the range of 200 and 600 rpm, and the highest EPS production was obtained at the level of DO of $40{\sim}80%$. From the regression analysis, the relation between $k_La$, gas velocity (Vs), stirrer speed (N) and impeller diameter (Di) could be expressed as : $$k_La=0.555{\times}Vs^{0.42}{\times}(N^3{\times}Di^2)^{0.33}\;(R^2=0.925,\;p<0.05)$$ It was found that under 2.6 L jar fermenter, the optimum agitation speed and aeration rate was 400 rpm and 1 vvm, respectively, obtaining the EPS production of 15.43 g/L. Under the submerged cultivation of G. lucidum in jar fermenters of $2.6{\sim}75\;L$, the similar EPS yields at each fermenter were achieved during scaling up based on $k_La$, and $k_La$ value for maximum EPS production was $85.4{\pm}26.70\;h^{-1}$.

As a method to reduce the total phosphorus in sewage treatment plant, we applied the integral type slow mixing/sedimentation fiber filtration system to compare the control methods for the sewage effluent and the reject water. It was analyzed that about 92.4 kg T-P/day should be removed in order to satisfy the final concentration of phosphorus of 0.2 mg T-P/L, which is reinforced effluent standard. Therefore the total phosphorus removal efficiency should be 96% for sewage effluent and 69.2% for reject water (dehydrated filtrate) respectively. The system operation cost to achieve the target of total phosphorus removal efficiency was assessed. It has been found that the treatment cost of the reject water containing high concentration of phosphorus with a low flow rate is reduced to about 1/2.4 of the coagulant cost and about 1/120 of the electricity cost, compared to that of the sewage effluent treatment. Also the economics of the integral type slow mixing/sedimentation fiber filtration system and the general coagulation and sedimentation system were compared. It was evaluated that the development system was more economical because the installation area of the integral type slow mixing/sedimentation fiber filtration system was about 1/7 smaller than that of the general coagulation and sedimentation system, and the annual operation cost including the required amount of coagulant and electricity cost of the development system was lowered about 1/1.7 than that of the general system.

In fermentations with a 4-liter stirred tank bioreactor, a better than two-fold enhancement of the gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient$(k_La)$ in the celite-immobilized fungal cultures of Tolypocladium in flatum over the parallel conventional free-cell was observed at identical biomass concentrations, despite the higher specific oxygen uptake rate of the immobilized fungi during exponential growth. As a result oxygen sufficient conditions, i. e., dissolve oxygen(D.O.) concentrations exceeding 75% air saturation, could be maintained throughout exponential growth period of the immobilized culture, in contrast to the suspended fungal culture, whose D.O. levels fell below 50% air saturation. A linear monotonic dependence of $k_La$ upon impeller agitaion rate was found for both immobilized and conventional cultivation modes over a range of 250 to 550rpm, the slope being a function of biomass concentration for the free but not for the immobilized cell system In contrasts oxygen transfer rate was a much weaker function of aeration rate up to about 2.5 vvm for both culture configurations. Above this level, aeration rate had no further effect on the mass transfer. In addition, the immobilized cultures sustained good morphological and physiological states, leading to almost two times higher cyclosporln A (CyA) productivity overt the parallel free cell system. These experiments suggest that the celite-immobilized fungal system in a stirred tank reactor has considerable promise for scaling up cyclosporin A production in terms of high-density cultivation.

In this study, the characteristics of water treatment mixer with various propeller profiles are numerically invesitgated. The computation was conducted by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on unstructured tetrahedral elements with k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. It was found that the spreading angle and swirl magnitude of the jet are important factors for the mixer efficiency, since they clearly characterize the propeller and the frontal surface area of the propeller but not so much affected by the skew angle if it exceeds 30 degrees. The case1 and case2 models are found to show the best propeller efficiency. The case2 with low blade angle, however, requires the lowest power input for the same discharge capacity as the case1.

The grinding efficiencies of silica powder in a small scale stirred ball mill were investigated by energy consumption estimate. Comparing with a non-treated silica powder and a heating treated silica powder, it was found that a silica powder cooled in room temperature after heating treatment at 600∼900$^{\circ}C$ consumed lower grinding energy than non-treated silica powder, and a silica powder quenched after heating treatment consumed lower grinding energies about 52∼62%, in case of dry grinding. Additionally, if heating treated silica powder grind in wet method, energy consumption will be decreased about 40% than in dry grinding, and the dependency of the particle size to the grinding efficiency, quenching significantly improved it.
