Due to the low C/N ratio of domestic wastewater characteristic, addition of external carbon source for the effective N and P removal is necessary. High organic content of food waste can be used for the external carbon source in biological nutrient removal processes, The applicability of condensate of food waste (CFW), which is produced during the high-rate fermentation process, was examined in membrane bioreactor for the nutrient removal. Under the various operating conditions, nutrient removal efficiencies and membrane fouling characteristics were evaluated using synthetic wastewater. From nitrate utilization rate (NUR) test, denitrification rate was 0.19 g $NO_3-N/g$ VSS/day. With the addition of CFW increased, average removal efficiencies of T-N and T-P could be increased up to 64% and 41%, respectively. Also the optimal retention time was 3 hr/5 hr for anoxic/aerobic reactor. When applied to real sewage, membrane fouling resistance was increased up to 60%, which could be reduced from $10.4{\times}10^{12}m^{-1}$ to $5.9{\times}10^{12}m^{-1}$ with the control of influent suspended solid concentration. In summary, it was suggested that CFW could be used as an economical and effective carbon source for membrane assisted biological N and P removal.

Marine environmental characteristics and primary productivity of phytoplankton were investigated in seaweed bed of northwestern coast of Jeju Island during Autumn, 2014. The trophic state based on dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus was mesotrophic. The Redfield ratio was less than 16, indicating that nitrogen was the limiting factor for the growth of phytoplankton. Dissolved organic nitrogen and phosphorus accounts for 63 and 46% of the dissolved total nitrogen and phosphorus, respectively. Light utilization efficiency (${\alpha}$) and maximum photosynthetic capacity ($P_m{^B}$) were highest in the Donggwi (third-year marine forest), followed by Gonae (one-year marine forest), Biyangdo (natural seaweed bed) and Geumneung (whitening area). The primary productivity of phytoplankton in the Donggwi, Gonae and Biyangdo also was higher than that in the Geumneung. Although nitrogen is the limiting factor, enriched dissolved organic nitrogen might play an important role to maintain primary productivity. In addition, phytoplankton community through photosynthesis could produce about 14% of phytoplankton carbon in one hour. These results will be able to use the important information for material cycle and ecological valuation of seaweed bed.

The nitrogen fixation activity and environmental factors of Lespedeza bicli!oy Turcz, forming annual root nodules by symbiotic Rhizobium sp. were analyzed in the field conditions during the growing period. Seasunal changes of $N_2-fixation$ activity showed the maximum value of $120\;\mu\textrm{M}\;C_2_H4{\cdot}noduie\;g\;fw^{-1}{\cdot}hr^{-1}$ during the active growing period (June) and varied significantly depending on the growth phase and environmental factors. The maximum activities were attained at the conditions of pH 7, $30^{\circ}C$ of temperature, 18 Kpa of oxygen partial pressure and inhibited by water stress and nitrogen sources. The habitat soil was weak acidic and poor in nitrogen, phosphorus and organic matter contents. The leaf area ratios and chlorophyll contents were ranged from 442 to $48;\textrm{cm}^2{\cdot}g\;dw^{-1}$ and from 33 to $38\;\mu\textrm{g}\;chI{\cdot}\textrm{cm}^2$. Nitrogen contents in each organ showed the maximum of 46, 19 and $11\;mg{\cdot}g\;dw^{-1}, respectively for leaf, rool and stem in the early period. The highest phosphorus contents were 4.2, 1.2 and $0.6\;mg{\cdot}g\;dw^{-1}$, respectively for leaf. root and stem in early growing period. The allocation ratios of nitrogen quantity showed 60% for leaves and 73% for roots during the active and late growth period, and 22% [or stems in average. The allocalion ralios o[ phosphorus quantity showed 58% for leaves during the most productive period, 70% for roots in the pre-growth stage and 26% for stems in average.verage.

Varietal difference in nitrogen metabolism was investigated under water culture system with high (50 or 80ppm) and low (10 or 40 ppm) levels of nitrogen and with two-week minus nitrogen treatment at maximum tillering and heading stage using a leading local variety, Jinheung and high-yielding IR667 line (newly bred tropical variety). 1. In high nitrogen level Jinheung showed higher yield than IR667. vise versa in low nitrogen level. 2. Poor yield of IR667 at high nitrogen may be due to ammonium toxicity that was eliminated by minus nitrogen from culture solution. 3. IR667 was more sensitive to the change of nitrogen environment. 4. With high nitrogen medium Jinheung showed nigher nitrogen uptake and higher capacity of protein synthesis than IR667, and vise versa at low nitrogen medium. 5. From the above facts it could be concluded that Jinheung has higher metabolic adaptability for heavy nitrogen while IR667 has higher structural adaptability for heavy mitrogen and that better productive adaptability will be resulted in the combination of both characteristics.

This study examined the nitrate removal efficiency which uses an electrowinning, and also analyzed the nitrate removal efficiency under a variety of operating conditions such as nitrate concentrations, pH, current densities, electrodes, reducing agents in order to determine optimal conditions. In addition, the multi-step electro-chemical process test has been also analyzed. During the electrowinning, the identical Zn-Zn and Pt-Ti electrodes in the insoluble oxidation electrode(Pt) has shown the highest nitrate removal efficiency in the 100 mg $NO_3^{-}$ -N/L concentration. In the concentration of 150 mg $NO_3^{-}$ -N/L, the efficiency of the Zn-Zn electrode were 70~85%, and that of Pt-Ti electrode were 40~50% without any change of pH. In the high concentration of 500 and 1,000 mg $NO_3^{-}$ -N/L, the higher the concentration, the more decrease of its nitrate removal efficiency decreased. However, the energy consumed for nitrogen removal increased when the nitrate concentration was high. As a result of the multi-step electro-chemical process test, We chose the Test 4. Because the first, most of the zinc consumed from 1 step was recovered from over the 2 step. The second, amount of consumption anode decreased with insoluble anode Pt from over the 2 step. And the third, Zn cathode increased the possibility of reusing Zn deposited. In view of the results so far achieved, the multi-step electro-chemical process would be applied to treat nitrogen involved in metal finishing wastewater.

진해만과 가덕도 주변 해역에서 2007년 2회(하계와 추계)에 걸쳐 표층 및 저층수 조사를 실시하여 수질 환경 특성을 파악하였다. 수온은 표층이 저층보다 높았는데 여름이 가을보다 표 저층간의 차이가 컸으며, 염분은 가덕도 남쪽에서 낙동강 물의 유입 영향으로 저염분을 나타내었다. 부유물질은 표층수의 경우 진해만 및 연안에서 높고 외해에서 낮았으며, 과거의 조사 농도 범위에 속하였다. POC는 계절별로 분포 차이가 있지만 유기물 유입원에 대한 근접성과 기초 생산아 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. COD는 표층에서 오염원의 영향이 많은 진해만에서 높고 외해로 가면서 낮아졌다. 여름에 진해만 일부 정점은 해역별 수질기준 III등급이었다. DO는 저층이 표층보다 낮았는데 특히 진해만 내완 외해의 깊을 수심 정점에서 차이가 크고, 하계에 성층에 의하여 수증간에 큰 자이를 나타내었다. 인산염-인과 규산염-규소는 저층수에서 용존산소가 낮아짐에 따라 높은 농도를 나타내는 경향이 강하였으며, 암모니아-질소도 내만의 저산소층에서 높은 농도를 보였다. 표층수의 용존 무기질소는 신항과 가덕도 주변에서 높고 진해만 서쪽 및 외해로 갈수록 낮아졌으며, 과거 조사 농도보다 낮고 좁은 변동 범위를 보였다. 총 질소와 총인도 외해역에서 낮은 농도였으며, 표층보다 저층이 높은 추세였고 여름에 더욱 뚜렷하였다. 총질소 평균 농도로는 해역별 수질기준과 I등급을 만족하였으나 정점별로는 $I{\sim}III$등급까지 변화가 컸는데 진해만 내의 저층 또는 외해의 깊은 수심을 갖는 정점에서 등급이 좋지 알았다. Chl-a는 진해만 내 또는 가덕수도에서 높은 분포였으며, 신항과 가덕도 남쪽에서는 과거보다 낮은 농도였다.

새우젓은 새우와 소금만을 원료로 하여 제조하는데, 최근 수입산 소금의 유입이 급증하고 있어 새우젓에도 이들 수입산 소금의 사용이 늘어가고 있다. 수입산 소금은 수분과 식염함량이 국산 소금과 다를 뿐 아니라 불순물과 무기질 등의 성분 또한 차이가 있다. 본 연구는 소금의 종류가 새우젓에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보기 위해, 국산천일염, 중국산천일염, 정제염의 세 가지 소금으로 27%의 염농도로 새우젓을 제조한 후 2$0^{\circ}C$ 항온기에서 180일간 숙성 및 발효가 진행되는 동안 이화학적 변화(pH, 염도, 휘발성 염기질소, 아미노태질소, 색상)를 분석하였다. 세 가지 소금의 새우젓 모두 숙성이 진행되면서 단백질 분해 산물인 휘발성 염기질소, 아미노태 질소의 함량이 증가하였는데, 국산 천일염 새우젓이 더 많이 증가하였다. 즉, 숙성 180일 후 휘발성염기질소, 아미노태 질소 함량은 각각 국산천일염 새우젓의 경우 200mg%, 749mg%, 2.3lmg%인 반면, 중국산천일염 새우젓은 67.23mg%, 630mg%, 1.22mg%이었고, 정제염 새우젓은 100.85mg%, 634mg%, 1.76mg%로 나타났다. 지방산패도는 국산천일염 새우젓은 23일(2.450), 중국산천일염 새우젓은 58일(1.771), 정제염 새우젓(2.514)까지 증가한 후 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 소금의 종류가 새우젓의 숙성에 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Salinity, DIN, DIP, DIN/DIP and indigenous algal assay were determined to estimate the limiting nutrient for phytoplankton growth in Gwangyang Bay, South Sea of Korea. Seawater samples were collected at surface and bot-tom water in 4 November 1999 (dry season) and 2 September 2000 (after heavy rain). In 4 November 1999, the salinity, DIN, DIP and DIN/DIP were 29.92 psu, 13.59 ${\mu}M$, 3.41 ${\mu}M$ and 4.14 respectively. In 2 September 2000, These values were 24.62 psu, 27.77 ${\mu}M$, 2.82 ${\mu}M$ and 9.79 respectively. The DIN and DIP concentrations in this study were higher than Deukryang, Yeoja and Gamak Bay, South Sea of Korea. Especially, DIP concentration was 8 times high compared to Deutryang, Yeoja and Gamak Bay. The main sources of nitrogen seem to be freshwater runoff from Somjin River and industrial wastewater. But, the main sources of phosphorus seem to be industrial wastewater around Gwangyang Bay. The limiting nutrient was nitrogen at all station in 4 November 1999. The limiting nutrient was also nitrogen in 2 September 2000 in spite of heavy rain observed because of relatively much volume of phosphorus sup-plied from point sources than nitrogen. In case of below 20 psu in salinity by heavy rain, the limiting nutrient willbe shift from nitrogen to phosphorus at some area of Somjin River estuary. But the limiting nutrient will be never shift to phosphorus throughout Gwangyang Bay, eastern coast of Yeoja and Dolsan because of much volume of phosphorus runoff from point source in coastal area of Gwangyang Bay.
