A strain of Penicillium sp. which produces considerable amount of $\beta$-galactosidase was selected from extracellular $\beta$-galactosidase-producing fungi isolated from soil. The enzyme was found to be very stable in neutral pH range. Maximum enzymatic activity was reached after 72 hr of incubation in a wheat bran medium at 3$0^{\circ}C$. Productivity of the enzyme appeared not to be affected by the addition of carbon sources to the medium but the activity of the enzyme was increased from 14% to 85% by the addition of various nitrogen sources. The enzyme extracted from the wheat-bran culture of the Penicillium sp. was purified to 5050-fold by ammonium sulfate fractionation, SP-Sephadex C-50 chromatography, Ultrogel AcA 44 filtration and hydroxyapatite chromatography. The purified $\beta$-galactosidase was homogeneous on ultracentrifugation and disc electrophoresis.

본 연구는 바이오가스의 에너지효율성을 높이기 위한 연구로서 바이오가스 정제공정과 초저온액화공정을 통하여 액화바이오메탄을 생산하는 바이오가스 고질화기술개발 연구이다. 바이오가스 정제공정은 탈황, 제습, 흡착, 압축, $CO_2/CH_4$ 분리공정으로 구성하고, 초저온액화공정은 열교환기, $CO_2$ 제거설비, 질소냉매 공급공정으로 구성하여 혐기성소화조에서 발생하는 바이오가스($CH_4$ 농도: 60~65%, $H_2S$: 1,500~2,500ppm)를 $200Nm^3/hr$의 유량으로 인입시켜 액화바이오메탄을 생산하였다. 연구결과, 탈황공정에서는 가성소다 세정법을 이용하여 1,500~2,500ppm으로 인입되는 $H_2S$를 100ppm 이하로 제거한 후, 흡착법을 이용하여 $H_2S$를 완전히 제거하였다. 바이오가스에 포화된 수분은 냉각제습과 흡착제습공정을 통해 Dew point $-70{\sim}-90^{\circ}C$까지 제거하여 안정적으로 $CO_2/CH_4$ 분리공정에 인입시켰다. $CO_2/CH_4$ 분리공정은 흡착방식을 적용하여 $CH_4$ 순도가 95% 이상인 바이오메탄을 생산하였으며, 이때 메탄 회수율은 약 87%이였다. $CO_2$가 분리된 바이오메탄은 초저온액화공정을 이용하여 액화바이오메탄으로 전환시켰다. 이때 초저온액화공정은 Reverse Brayton cycle로 구성하였으며, 냉매로는 질소를 사용하였다. 액화바이오메탄의 생산은 바이오메탄을 등엔트로피과정인 단열팽창을 통하여 $-155{\sim}-159^{\circ}C$의 초저온으로 냉각되는 질소냉매와 열교환기에서 열교환시켜 이루어졌으며 그 생산량은 $3.46m^3$/day(1bar, $-161^{\circ}C$)이었다.

Bromelain was purified from Korean pineapple, Ananas comosus, L. The enzyme was purified about 21 fold by DEAF-cellulose ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-150. Purified enzyme was confirmed as active single band by polyacrylamide electrophoresis and the molecular weight was estimated to be about 22,000 by SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH and temperature were 6.0 and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. The range of its stability to the pH and temperature were respectively 5.0 to 7.0 and below $50^{\circ}C$. It was found that $Mn^{2+}$ increased the enzyme activity, whereas $Mg^{2+}\;and\;Fe^{2+}$ decreased it abruptly. The purified enzyme was inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoic acid, indicating that reactive SH groups are required for the enzyme activity. The reaction of the enzyme followed typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km value of $5.747{\times}10^{-4}\;M\;and\;Vmax\;of\;131.58\;{\mu}g/min$ for casein. When meat was treated with the enzyme, free soluble nitrogen and amino acid nitrogen increased as enzyme concentration increased.

1. The purified soybean hemagglutinin isolated from Korean soybean through the calcium phosphate column chromatography was found to contain mannose (4.9%) and glucosamine (1.1%) added to the protein portion. 2. The fractions I,II,III, the impurities accompanied by hemagglutinin during the final purification were proved to be new plant glycoproteins that were seemingly paper electrophoretically homogeneous and had the same mobility. 3. The carbohydrate and nitrogen contents of I,II,III were 4.5%, 1.13%, 1.1% in mannose, 0.5%, 1.2%, 1.22% in glucosamine and 12.8%, 15.5%, 13.9% in nitrogen respectively.

Biosynthesis of curdlan( ${\beta}$-1,3 glucan) was shown by fluorscence on cellufluor medium. The highest production of curdlan was produced when glucose was used as a carbon source and ($NH_4$)$_2$$SO_4$ was used as a nitrogen source. ${\beta}$ -form of curdlan was detected in the fingerprint region (890 $cm^{-1}$) by FT-IR spectrum and shown homogeneous ${\beta}$ -1,3 glucan by $^{13}C$ NMR spectrum ($C_1$-103 ppm, $C_2$-73.2 ppm, $C_3$-86.4 ppm, $C_4$-68.7 ppm, $C^{5}$-76.63 ppm, $C_{6}$-61.2 ppm). Transition of structure from triple helix coil form to random coil form was appeared at 0.1 ∼0.25 M NaOH concentration. It was shown that natural curdlan is a triple helix form in neutral but becomes weak in alkaline condition.

이산화탄소는 메탄, 오존, 산화질소, CFC등의 온실기체 중 약 50%를 차지하는 물질로서 이산화탄소 발생의 저감과 함께 회수 기술의 개발을 통한 배출량 억제는 환경적 측면에서 대단히 중요한 것으로 간주되고 있다. 따라서 각종 산업분야에서 발생하는 다양한 성분을 가진 다성분계 배가스내에 존재하는 10%내외의 이산화탄소만을 분리정제 농축하여 메탄, 메탄을 등의 다른 화학물질의 제조의 원료, 신에너지원, 고부가가치의 신제품 등으로 전환하는 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다.(중략)

막분리(membrane separation)법은 막 전후의 압력차, 농도차 등을 추진력(driving foroe)으로 하여 분리대상물질에 대한 막의 선택투과성 차이를 이용, 분리를 행하는 것이다. 이 분리법은 기존의 분리공정인 심냉법(cryogenic separation)과는 달리 상변환 공정이 필요없어 에너지가 적게 들고 또한 PSA(pressure swing adsorption)법에서와 같은 cycle 운전이 필요없어 연속적으로 분리가 가능하며 시스템도 간단하다. 최근 기체 막분리의 경우 수소 및 탄산가스의 회수정제, 공기중의 산소와 질소의 분리 등에 실용화되고 있다. 여기서는 공기중의 산소를 분리하여 30-40% 산소부화공기(oxygen enriched air)를 간편하게 제조할 수 있는 산소부화막장치와 연소장치에의 응용기술 및 연구결과에 대해 간략히 소개하고자 한다.

VOC(volatile organic compound)는 도료제조, 자동차, 선박의 도색, 인쇄, 염색 공정에서 주로 발생하는 휘발성 유기화합물로서 호흡기로 들어가면 중추신경 등 주요 기관의 장애를 일으킬 수 있으며, 질소화합물과 광화학반응을 일으켜 오존을 유발하는 위험물질이다. 정부에서는 1991년 대기환경보존법을 제정하여 유기용제의 배출을 규제하고 있고, 이 법에 따라 금년부터 석유화학정제업, 저유소에 VOC 방지시설을 의무적으로 설치해야 한다.(중략)

The physical and chemical properties of ${\gamma}-conglycinin$ of soybean (Glycine max) were investigated. The soybean protein extracted from soybean meal using 0.2M NaCl solution at pH 4.5 was passed through a Sephadex G-150 column to isolate 7S globulin. ${\gamma}$-Conglycinin was isolated and purified from the 7S globulin with a DEAE Sephadex A-50 column chromatography. The protein preparation was pure on immunoelectrophoresis, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel isoelectric fouling. It had an isoelectric point at pH 5.4 and contained 16.12% nitrogen, 4.18% mannose and 1.21% glucosamine. Amino acid composition, in general, shaved that ${\gamma}-conglycinin$ contained higher contents of lysine, dicarboxylic acids and ammonia nitrogen, and lower contents of sulfur-containing amino acids and tryptophan. The subunits of ${\gamma}-conglycinin$ were distributed in the range of pH 4.6-5.5. The subunits located in the pH region of 4.6-5.0 and 5.0-5.5 were glycopeptides (molecular weight of 38,000) and simple peptide (MW of 32,000), respectively.

As crude oil with heavier and/or highly oxidized components prevails, purification technologies such as desulfurization, denitrilization and demetalization have become important issues to control contents of sulfur and other impurities affecting the quality of petroleum. Also, the importance of catalyst technologies related with crude oil purification has been emphasized to control the production and yield of products. In this paper, technology trends of impurity removal such as sulfur, nitrogen and metal components from crude oil and catalysts related with purification of crude oil were studied through patent analysis. The patents published or registered in Korea, U. S. A., Japan, and Europe from mid 1970's to 2009 had been analyzed based on the application tendency, the distribution of major applicants, and their active indices, etc. The technology flow was figured out to see the technology trends.
