The pilot scale experiments can handle the flue gas up to 1,000 $Nm^3/hr$ for separation of carbon dioxide included in real flue gas at coal-fired power plant. The operational characteristics was analyzed with the main experimental variables such as flue gas flow rate, absorbent circulation rate using chemical absorbents mono-ethanolamine( MEA) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol(AMP). The more flue gas flow rate decreased in 100 $m^3/hr$ in the MEA 20 wt% experiments, the more carbon dioxide removal efficiency was increased 6.7% on average. Carbon dioxide removal efficiency was increased approximately 2.8% according to raise of the 1,000 kg/hr absorbent circulation rate. It also was more than 90% at $110^{\circ}C$ of re-boiler temperature. Carbon dioxide removal efficiency of the MEA was higher than that of the AMP. In the MEA(20 wt%) experiment, carbon dioxide removal efficiency(85.5%) was 10% higher than result(75.5%) of ASPEN plus simulation.

Volatile flavor components in the mash of takjus prepared by using different nuruks such as Mucor racemosus nuruk, Rhizopus japonicus nuruk, Aspergillus oryzae nuruk, Aspergillus kawachii nuruk and nuruk (Korean-style bran koji), were identified by using GC and GC-MS. Twenty alcohols, 26 esters, 10 acids, 10 aldehydes and 6 others were found in the mash of takju after 16 days of fermentation. Takju by Aspergillus oryzae nuruk had the most various components of volatile flavor. Fifty-four flavor components including ethanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 2,3-butadienol (D,L), benzeneethanol, acetic acid ethyl ester, succinic acid diethyl ester, butanoic acid monoethyl ester, acetic acid and benzene acetic acid 4-acetyloxy-3-methyl ethyl ester were usually detected in all the treatments. The relative peak area of volatile components was as follows: alcohol $(71.28{\sim}90.23%)$, ester $(0.66{\sim}9.05%)$, acid $(0.2{\sim}0.6%)$ and aldehyde $(0.02{\sim}0.09%)$. Specially, 1-pentanol and hexanoic acid ethyl ester were high in takju made of nuruk (Korean-style bran koji). 1-Hexanol, 1-dodecanol, acetic acid and 1,2-benzene-dicarboxylic acid diprophenyl ester were high in takju made of Mucor racemosus nuruk. 4-Acetyloxy, 3-methyl benzeneacetic acid phenyl ester, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, succinic acid diethylester, butanoic acid monoethyl ester and butanoic acid were higher content in takju by Rhizopus japonicus nuruk. Acetic acid ethyl ester, pentanoic acid and 3-methyl butanoic acid were high in takju that was made of Aspergillus oryzae nuruk. 1-Butanol was high in takju by Aspergillus kawachii nuruk.

Increasing emission of $CO_2$ significantly effects the global warming. Chemical absorption is one of separation methods of $CO_2$ from the industrial flue gases. In this study, the $CO_2$ removal efficiency as well as the $CO_2$ absorption amount of aqueous AMP (2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol) solutions were measured using the continuous absorption and regeneration apparatus. We investigated the effect of aqueous AMP+AEPD(2-amino-2-ethyl-1, 3-propanediol) and AMP+TIPA (triisopropanolamine) solutions to enhance absorption characteristics of AMP. As a result of this study, the absorption amount and $CO_2$ removal efficiency were increased with adding TIPA into 30 wt.% AMP. The absorption amount and $CO_2$ removal efficiency of aqueous 30 wt.% AMP+5 wt.% TIPA solution were $1.70\;kg-CO_2/kg-absorbent$ and 91.1%, while those of aqueous 30 wt.% AMP solution were $1.58\;kg-CO_2/kg-absorbent$ and 89.3%. In addition, aqueous 30 wt.% AMP+5 wt.% TIPA solution used in the study revealed the high stripping efficiency, which was almost 98%, at the temperature of $110^{\circ}C$. Thus, the temperature of regenerator should be operated at $110^{\circ}C$.

In order to understand the structure of the existing aggregate in the nanocomposite, which has been prepared with polyester and trisilanolisobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane(TBPOSS), laser light scattering(LLS) and SEM-EDS were applied to its 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol solution and original sample, respectively. Although aggregate particles appeared as spherical shape of the average diameter of 120 nm in SEM image, they were not microgels but almost linear copolymer chains ($M_w=2.3{\times}10^6\;g/mol$) alternating 320 molecules of TBPOSS with polyester subchains. It has been microphase-separated from the matrix polyester due to the difference of chemical composition. As the matrix, polyester chain of $M_w=4.0{\times}10^4\;g/mol$ had averagely 2.5 molecules of TBPOSS per chain. It is also found that about 93% of total TBPOSS molecules existed in matrix phase and the residual 7% in spherically aggregated phase.

PZT(53/47) precursor 1M sols were prepared using a diol based Sol-Gel process, and thin films were deposited by spin coating onto Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates. With a single coating, final film thickness of aproximately 0.9${\mu}m $ was achieved from diol-based PZT sol. Since PZT crystallized in a ferroelectric perovskite phase from an intermediate nonferroelectric pyrochlore phase, the effects of the presence of perovskite PZT seeds on the phase transformation of PZT were investigated. Seeded PZT films were prepared from the seeded PZT 1M sols in which seeds with less than 0.2${\mu}m $ in size and 1wt% were dispersed in n-propanol before mixing with the PZT stock solution. The seeding effects were confirmed by the fact that the formation temperature of perovskite phase decreased by 50$^{\circ}C$ with less than 1wt% seeds.

This study reviews the manufacturing characteristics of distilled liquor prepared using Saccharomyces cerevisiae 88-4 separated from traditional Nuruk. From analysis of soju mash (sool-dut) during the fermentation process, 17.2% of alcohol was detected in the final fermentation with succinic acid present at the highest level ($7,164.3{\pm}85.2ppm$). From the analysis of alcohol content in different distillation conditions, distillation condition No. 6 showed the lowest amount of alcohol ($29.6{\pm}0.0%$), whereas distillation condition No. 4 showed the highest amount ($59.9{\pm}0.1%$). N-propanol has been detected at the highest level in distilled liquor under conditions No. 1 and 4, each being $163.4{\pm}18.3$ and $174.0{\pm} 0.1ppm$, respectively. Isobutanol showed a tendency similar to n-propanol. Distilled liquor in conditions No. 1 and 4 has shown the highest acetaldehyde level, each being $303.4{\pm}4.5$ and $325.4{\pm}13.1ppm$, respectively. After distillation, 14 volatile substances were found in common, with isoamyl alcohol present at the highest levels in all the distilled liquors. Distillation conditions No. 3, 5, 6, and 7 have shown high levels of isobutanol that emits a banana-like fragrance and ethyl octanoate that emits a pleasant fruity and floral fragrance.

SOS Chromotest and Ames test were carried out to evaluate the mutagenicity of three chloropropanols. In the SOS Chromotest, 3-monochloro-l,2-propanediol (3-MCPD) and 2,3-dichloro-1-propanol (2,3-DCP) except for 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) induced SOS response in Escherichia coli PQ37 with dose-response relationship and 2,3-DCP was far more genotoxic than 3-MCPD. The genotoxic activities of both compounds, however, were very lower in E. coli PQ35 (PQ37 $uvrA^+)$ as compared to them in E. coli PQ37, whereas much higher in E. coli PQ243 (PQ37 tagA alkA). These results indicate that there are at least two types of DNA lesions caused by these compounds; one is a excision-repairable and the other is 3-methyladenine or any similar lesion which is excision-unrepairable and can induce adaptive response. In Salmonella typhimurium TA100, all the compounds showed strong mutagenicities, establishing the following genotoxic order: 2,3-DCP>3-MCPD>1,3-DCP. But the mutagenic activities were very low in S. typhimurium TA98 and TA97a. These results suggest that the mutation by chloropropanols can be induced by the DNA lesions causing base-pair substitutions. From the result that the mutagenicities of 3-MCPD and 2,3-DCP in S. typhimurium TA1535 were very low as compared to those in S. typhimurium TA100, it was appeared that the mutations by both compounds necessitate error-prone SOS repair.

A solid acid catalyst, NiSO4/CeO2-ZrO2 was prepared simply by promoting ZrO2 with CeO2 and supporting nickel sulfate on CeO2-ZrO2. The support of NiSO4 on ZrO2 shifted the phase transition of ZrO2 from amorphous to tetragonal to higher temperatures because of the interaction between NiSO4 and ZrO2. The surface area of 10-NiSO4/1-CeO2-ZrO2 promoted with CeO2 and calcined at 600 oC was very high (83 m2/g) compared to that of unpromoted 10-NiSO4/ZrO2 (45 m2/g). This high surface area of 10-NiSO4/1-CeO2-ZrO2 was due to the promoting effect of CeO2 which makes zirconia a stable tetragonal phase as confirmed by XRD. The role of CeO2 was to form a thermally stable solid solution with zirconia and consequently to give high surface area and acidity of the sample, and high thermal stability of the surface sulfate species. 10-NiSO4/1- CeO2-ZrO2 containing 1 mol% CeO2 and 10 wt% NiSO4, and calcined at 600 oC exhibited maximum catalytic activities for both reactions, 2-propanol dehydration and cumene dealkylation.

In the present study, Pebax-2533 plate membranes were prepared by drying precursor solutions which were obtained by dissolving Pebax-2533 polymer in 1-Propanol/n-Butanol mixed solvents. And then the $CO_2$ and $N_2$ permeation behaviors were tested by using a time-lag system. The prepared Pebax-2533 plate membranes showed a considerable $CO_2/N_2$ separation performance : the $CO_2$ permeability was 130 to 288 barr, and the $CO_2/N_2$ permselectivity was 5-8. The $CO_2$ permeation data obtained by varying feed pressure, permeation temperature, and solvent composition announced that not only the $CO_2$ sorption but also the $CO_2$ diffusion is equally important in the overall $CO_2$ permeation.

In this study, a blend of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and ammonia (NH$_3$) was used to achieve high absorption rates for carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) as suggested at several literatures. The absorption rates of aqueous AMP and blended AMP+NH$_3$ solutions with CO$_2$ and nitrogen dioxide (NO$_2$) were measured using a stirred-cell reactor at 303 K. The effect of the added NH$_3$ to enhance absorption characteristics of AMP was studied. The performances were evaluated under various operating conditions. The absorption rates increased following the increase of the concentration of NH$_3$. The absorption rate of NH$_3$ blended into 30 wt.% AMP solution with NO$_2$ at 303 K was 12.6$\sim$32.6% higher than that of aqueous AMP solution without NH3. Also, the addition of 3 wt.% NH$_3$ to 30 wt.% AMP increased 48.2$\sim$41.6% values for the reactions with CO$_2$ and NO$_2$ at 303 K. Therefore, it clearly shows that the reaction rate of AMP with CO$_2$ and NO$_2$ can be increased by the addition of NH$_3$.
