Calcium phosphates recognized as important bio-materials have been successfully synthesized by simple precipitation using waste abalone shells, which are rich mineral sources of calcium. Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) originated from abalone shells was used as calcium source (precursor) for the preparation. Synthesis of calcium phosphates was performed by reacting calcium hydroxide with phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) in aqueous solution. The initial precursor Ca/P ratios were adjusted to 1.50, 1.59 and 1.67, and the effect of the composition and the heat treatment on the synthesized powders and sintered bodies was investigated. The phases of the sintered ceramics prepared at 1150℃ were hydroxyapatite (HAp), β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), and biphasic phosphate (HAp with β-TCP)), which were determined by the initial precursor Ca/P ratios. The results demonstrate the possibility for the synthesis of high value-added calcium phosphates from economical starting materials with low cost and high availability.

By the treatment of Gibberella fujkuroi I-892 with mutagen such as UV light and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, a mutant G. fujkuroi G-471 was selected as the highest producer of gibberellic acid among 800 mutant strains. It showed 30% increase of production yield compared with that of the parent strain. At optimum medium composition (saccharose 1.0%, ammonium tartarate 50mM, malt extract 1.0% KH$_2$PO$_4$ 0.5%, MgSO$_4$0.5%, FeSO$_4$0.0002%, trace element sol.0.002% (v/v), the yield of submerged culture increased by 30% after 7 days culture at 24$^{\circ}C$ (253mg/$\ell$). In submerged culture, the initial pH showed much effects on the increase of gibberellic acid production. The highest yield of the production was attained with pH adjustment to 4.0 at the initial stage of fermention.

본 연구에서는 Fe$^{0}$ /$H_2O$$_2$ 시스템을 이용하여 디젤 오염토양의 산화처리효율과 경제성 향상을 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 앞선 연구결과에서 최적 pH조건은 3이었으며, 과산화수소와 철 분말의 양은 비례적으로 증가할수록 처리효율이 높게 나타났다. 1) 이번 연구에서는 pH조절에 따른 처리효율의 향상효과를 알아보기 위해 pH 값을 3으로 일정하게 유지하여 반응을 수행하였으며, 일정 철 분말 농도조건에서 과산화수소의 주입방법에 따른 반응변화를 살펴보기 위해 과산화수소를 여러 비율로 분할 주입하면서 실험을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과에 따르면 pH를 3으로 일정하게 유지함으로써 초기에만 pH를 3으로 조정한 이전의 연구에서 반응이 경과함에 따라 나타나는 pH상승에 따른 처리효율의 감소 효과를 줄며 전체적인 TPH 처리효율을 10%이상 높일 수 있었으며, 같은 양의 TPH 제거에 소모되는 과산화수소의 양을 20% 정도 줄일 수 있었다. 과산화수소의 분할주입에 따른 반응향상효과 실험에서는 5회에 걸쳐 분할 주입한 경우에 3시간 이후 경미한 반응성 향상효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 과산화수소를 분할하여 주입함으로써 한번에 주입한 경우에 비하여 유기물의 산화에 직접적으로 참여하지 않는 과산화수소의 scavenging 효과를 최소화할 수 있음을 보여주는 것이다. 따라서 최적 pH의 일정 유지와 과산화수소의 분할주입으로 철 분말을 이용한 펜톤유사반응의 처리효율과 경제성 제고 모두에 있어서 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Glucose was added into 2% MSG solution and studied for its effect on MSG degradation during heating at $100{\sim}120^{\circ}C$ and initial pH of 4 and 5. It was found that thermal degradation of MSG was significantly increased as the glucose concentration increased up to 20%. The values of thermal degradation constant calculated from linear relationship between log(% MSG) and heating time was linearly increased as the glucose concentration increased. The increased effect was more significant at pH5 than pH4.

In this study, the release experiments of drug were operated in the phosphate buffer solutions of pH 7.4 and pH 1.2 by using drug carriers(chitosan, chitosan hydrochloride, and sulfonated chitosan)coated by poly(DL-lactide) with prednisolone for delivery drug. The release time of drug was more delayed in pH 7.4 than in pH 1.2. The release time of according to the kinds of drug carrier was delayed in the order of chitosan, sulfonated chitosan, and chitosan hydrochloride. In short, the formulation allows biodegradable coated monolithic polymetic matrices to suppress the burst effect of the drug release mechanism, which led to the sustained release pattern.

Calcium phosphates such as hydroxyapatite (HAp), tricalcium phosphate (${\beta}$-TCP), and biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP, HAp/${\beta}$-TCP) have been prepared via hydrothermal treatment. The synthesis was conducted by reacting ($Ca(OH)_2$) aqueous solution with phosphoric acid ($H_3PO_4$) under different hydrothermal synthesis conditions (temperatures up to $150^{\circ}C$ and pH lower than 12). The effects of initial precursor Ca/P ratio (1.30, 1.50 and 1.67) and post heat treatment on the phase evolution behavior of the powders and sintered ceramics were investigated. The phases of resulting powders and sintered ceramics were controllable by adjusting the initial Ca/P ratio. A single HAp phase without any noticeable second phase was obtained for the initial Ca/P ratio of 1.67 in the overall heat treatment range. Pure ${\beta}$-TCP and biphasic calcium phosphate (HAp/${\beta}$-TCP) were synthesized from precursor solutions having Ca/P molar ratios of 1.30 and 1.50, respectively, after having been heat treated at $900^{\circ}C$ or higher. Dense ceramics with translucency were obtained at considerably lower sintering temperatures.

Aeration is the most important and indispensable operation unit for the treatment of swine manure using aerobic liquid-composting process. The composting of swine manure depends on biological treatment process, but the highly concentrated ammonia nitrogen is required a pretreatment to expect the appropriate efficiency of the biological treatment process. In this study, pilot experiments have been carried out to estimate of the fit condition about ammonia stripping process as a pretreatment to aerobic liquid- composting. pH adjustment with $Ca(OH)_2$ was economically superior to use of NaOH and optimum pH of ammonia stripping was 12.3, ammonia nitorgen was rapidly removed as pH were increased at $$35^{\circ}C$$. When air stripping is performed before aerobic liquid-stripping, a high initial pH is required for complete ammonia removal and is additional effects such as organic substances, phosphorus, turbidity, and color removal. Stripping process was very efficient in the pretreatment of highly concentrated ammonia nitrogen for composting of swine manure. Emission rate of gaseous ammonia was $0.5355mole\;s^{-1}$ at initial time and $0.0253mole\;s^{-1}$ at finitial time. The fit condition of ammonia stripping in this study were at the temperature of $$35^{\circ}C$$, and the pH of 12.3 during 48 hours.

Since the enzymatic degradation of microbial poly(hydroxylalkanoate)s (PHAs), such as poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate] and poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate] initially occurs by a surface erosion process, their degradation behaviors can be controlled by the change of surface property. In order to control the rate of enzymatic degradation, plasma modification technique was applied to change the surface property of microbial PHAs. The surface hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties of PHA films were introduced by $CF_3H$ and $O_2$ plasma exposures, respectively. The enzymatic degradation was carried out at $37^{\circ}C$ in 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) in the presence of an extracellular PHB depolymerase purified from Alcaligenes facalis T1. The results showed that the significant retardation of initial enzymatic erosion of $CF_3H$ plasma-treated PHAs was observed due to the hydrophobicity and the enzyme inactivity of the fluorinated surface layers while the erosion rate of $O_2$ plasma-treated PHAs was not accelerated.

This study was conducted to identify the effect of recycling method of drained solution on the concentration of drained solution, and growth and yield of tomato in the recycling system. The recycling methods of drained solution were composed of control, MEC (measurement of EC) and ANS (analysis of nutrient solution). The plant height in the early growth stage was not different among the treatments, but plant fresh weight and dry weight were higher in the MEC or the ANS than in the control. The growth including fruit number, fruit weight, and yield of tomato in the ANS as compared with the control was favorable. The EC of drained solution tended to decrease in the early growth stage, but that of drained solution increased in the late growth stage. It was low in the MEC and the ANS as compared with the control. The pH of drained solution was maintained by 6.2 to 6.5 throughout the growth period in the MEC and the ANS, but the pH of the control increased up to 7.2 at the late growth stage. The N and K concentrations of drained solution tended to decrease in the early growth stage, while those of P, Ca and Mg increased. In the late growth stage, concentrations of N, P, Ca and Mg tended to decrease, but that of K in the ANS was very low. Concentrations of N, P, K, Ca and Mg were lower in the MEC and the ANS than in the control.

본 연구에서는 펜톤산화반응에서 과산화수소의 분해촉매로 일반적으로 쓰이는 Fe(II) 형태의 철염대신 Fe$^{\circ}$형태의 분말 철을 이용한 펜톤유사반응(Fenton-like oxidation)에 의한 매립지 침출수(sCODcr 1,100 mg/L, pH 8)의 CODcr 제거특성에 관한 회분식 처리실험을 수행하였다. 실험조건으로는 상온, 상압조건에서 Jar tester를 사용하여 분말 철의 주입 량과 산 세척도, 초기 반응 pH, 과산화수소의 주입 량을 변화시켜가며 침출수의 CODcr 제거효율 의 변화를 관찰하였으며, 이때 과산화수소의 분해 특성과 반응 중 pH의 변화도 함께 분석하였다. 반응은 모든 조건에서 대부분 약 30분 이내에 종료되었으며 그 이후의 반응변화는 미미하였다. 산 세척에 의한 분말 철 표면의 개질로 반응성의 향상을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 분말 철 주입 량을 증가함에 따라 반응속도가 일정하게 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에 서 CODcr의 제거 효율에 가장 큰 영향을 보여준 실험변수는 pH 였으며, 원수의 pH(8)를 2-4까지 조절하여 반응을 시켰을 때 최대 75%의 CODcr 제거효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 반응중 pH는 모든 조건에서 시간에 따라 증가하여 약 pH 9에서 더 이상 변화하지 않았다. 용액내 과산화수소의 잔류농도의 곡선은 반응 중 CODcr의 곡선과 유사한 변화를 나타내었다.
