The present study was to investigate the continuous production of alcohol using immobilized carrier manufactured by polymeric materials. Fermentation runs with a crushed rice, with constituents recovered from batch culture and with ones from continuous culture were thus compared. The performances of immobilized carrier were governed by sandwitched synthetic polymers, the evolution of the continuous culture was steadily governed by the production of alcohol in the lag time of batch culture. The main focus was set on the enhancement of the alcohol production by an newly-developed polymeric forms. This polymeric form led to a drastic increase of the microorganism and the production cost in the continuous reactor was thereby reduced. The sandwitched polymeric-formed carrier, which was resistant to external environments, serves as an interesting alternative to maintain the stability of biological process. These whole results were discussed with the aim to better understand the continuous process implied in the microorganism's build-up during cultivation of fermentation broth.

중소규모 사업장의 대부분은 회분식 반응공정을 이용하여 소량 다품종의 제품을 생산한다. 회분식 공정은 연속식 공정에 비해 수동운전의 비율이 높아서 인적오류에 의한 사고발생 가능성이 상대적으로 높으며, 사고 발생 시 인적 피해가 크게 나타날 수 있는 가능성을 내포하고 있다. 또한 대규모의 사업장에 비해 적절한 위험성평가나 안전관리가 이루어지기 어렵다. 따라서 회분식 공정에서의 위험특성을 구체적으로 규명하고, 이를 바탕으로 회분식 반응기에서의 사고를 예방하기 위한 일반적인 가이드를 제시하고자 한다. 이러한 회분식 공정의 위험성평가와 관련하여 영국 및 미국 화공학회에서는 화학반응 및 회분식 반응공정의 위험성평가 지침을 제시하고 있다.(중략)

Partial hydrolysed and deacetylated chitin, CHITA and CHITB as supports of immobilized enzyme were obtained by treatment of acid and base respectively. Glutaraldehyde, bifunctional reagent, was employed for crosslinking between $\beta$-glucosidase and support. Immobilized enzyme activities of CHITA-Gase and CHITB-Gase were determined with the reaction of p-nitrophenol-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside(PNG) in batch reactor, CSTR and PFR. Their optimum temperature, pH and enzymatic characteristics including Km and Vmax values were observed with variation of the flow rates. Mass transfer coefficient(h), effectiveness factor(η), deactivation rate(kd ) of two immobilized enzymes were also examined to compare efficiency of reactors.

Aerobic sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to treat screened dairy wastewaters. The study examined the production of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) in the aerobic SBR and raw manure effluent storage over 35 days. The reduction of total VFAs in the aerobic SBR was over $59\%$ removal than that of the raw manure. Acetic acid production in the aerobic SBR and the raw manure effluent storage were kept 138 and 286 mg/L. The propionic acid in the aerobic SBR was 1.9 mg/L, while the raw manure effluent storage was 68 mg/L, respectively. The concentrations of VOCs in the aerobic SBR reactor and effluent fill down remarkably than the raw manure storage. The results confirmed that the aerobic biological treatment is an essential requirement for minimizing odor problems.

Immobilized Candida lipolytica cells were prepared by entrapping the whole cells in calcium alginate gel. To enhance citric acid productivity, immobilized cells were Incubated with activation medium in fluidized-bed reactors. When the activation was done in batch operation, maximum citric acid productivity appeared in a much shorter time than in continuous operation. Activated immobilized cells were enhanced about 10-fold in citric acid production relative to non-activated immobilized cells. The productivity of citric acid was also influenced by bead size. When Immobilized cells were reacted in a fluidized-bed reactor with the same quantity of cells, the citric acid productivity was increased as the bead size was decreased.

To investigate the optimal conditions for biodegradation of toluene by Pseudomonas fluorescens KCTC 1767 in a batch soil-bioreactor, the effects of rpm change from 60 to 180, and temperature change from $15^{\circ}C$ to $30^{\circ}C$ in a batch culture and the flow rate change from 55 mL/min to 85 mL/Min in soil-bioreactor on the biodegradation of toluene were studied. In a batch culture the optimal operating conditons were 60 rpm, and $30^{\circ}C$ at initial pH 7, In a soil-bioreactor the optimal flow rate was 55 mL/min in the flow rate of circulation. The lower flow rate of circulation may help to biodegrade toluene adsorped in soil and dissolved in underground water.

DO, ORP and pH values measured during SBR operation can provide information about removal reaction of organic contaminants and nutrient materials in the reactor. It is already generalized control strategy to control reaction phase time using their special patterns indicating the end of the removal reactions. However, those informations are limited to point out the end time of oxidative reaction in the aerobic phase or reductive reaction in the anoxic phase without giving quantitative value of influent loading level. In this research, a diagnosis algorithm which can estimate the loading level of carbon and ammonia as high, medium and low was developed using the basic measurements like DO, ORP, and pH. It will be possible to know the level of influent loading rate from those online measurements without experimental analysis.

최근에 들어서 태양에너지의 화학적 에너지로의 변환에 대한 연구는 에너지 부족에 대한 대안으로서 각광을 받고 있는 분야이다. 이런 관심을 바탕으로 한 다양한 연구는 연속식 또는 회분식 반응기를 이용한 불균일계 촉매를 이용함으로써 진행되고 있고, 특히 기-액, 기-고 그리고 기-액-고상 반응기를 응용하는 광촉매 반응에 관심이 증폭되고 있다. 그리고 광촉매 반응이 실제 산업계에서 활용되기 전에 먼저 불균일계 광촉매 반응기의 설계기준에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 하며 실제 산업적인 응용측면에서도 광촉매 반응의 충분한 이용가능성에 관심이 이루어져야 한다.(중략)

Using the whole cell immobilized glucose isomerase which was prepared in the previous work (Korean J. Food Sci. & Technol., 11(3), 192 (1979), the specific activity of the immobilized enzyme was 48.1 units in the batch reaction system and 114 units in the continuous reaction system per g of matrix, respectively. In the continuous reactor the voidity was 0.36, which was suitable for the packed bed reactor. This immobilized enzyme showed a good operational stability of 115 days of half life which was sufficient for the continuous operation. The experimental result showed that 55 % of the substrate was converted to the product in the packed bed reactor. The productivity was dependent on the flow rate, column geometry, enzyme loading, and substrate concentration. An intrapaticle diffusion was observed by the effectiveness factor of 0.75 and interparticle diffusion by the decrease of Km' with increasing the superficial velocity.
