To formulate the parenteral delivery of a new cephalosporin derivative, 7-${\beta}$-[(2)-2-(2-arninothiazol-4-yl)-2methoxyiminoacetamido]- 3- [(2,3-cyclopenteno-4-carbamoyl-l-pyridinium)methyl]- 3-cephem-4-carboxylate sulfate( CKD604), the stability and solubility of CKD-604 in various aqueous media were investigated. The degradation kinetics of CKD-604 in aqueous solutions (ionic strength 0.1, pH 1-8) were studied at $37^{\circ}C$. The observed degradation rates followed pseudo first order kinetics. The pH-rate profile exhibited a minimum degradation rate at pH 5. The Arrhenius activation energy was 14.2 kcal/mol in pH 5 buffer solution. Excellent agreement between the cephalosporins' theoretical pH-rate profile and the experimental data indicated that the degradation pathway of CKD-604 could be predicted according to the general pathway of cephalosporins. The solubility of CKD-604 was 8.16 mg/ml at $25^{\circ}C$. To enhance the solubility and adjust the suitable pH, CKD-604 was solubilized by using sodium ascorbate, ascorbic acid and urea. The compositions were obtained to satisfy optimum pH and concentration, and the total amount of additives was several times of the active ingredient, CKD-604.

The effects of temperature on nitrification of enriched nitrifiers were investigated by using kinetics and thermodynamics method through the batch test. Aquaculture recirculating water, which was sampled at Chung Cheong Buk-Do Inland Fisheries Research Institute, was analized to observe the characteristics of nitrification. Temporal variation of ammonium, nitrite and nitrate concentration was measured at batch experiments. Activation energy was calculated using Arrhenius equation with the oxidation rates of specific ammonium or nitrite ion. These oxidation rates were measured at temperature range of $6-35^{\circ}C$ and ammonium concentration range of 0.2-1.8 mg/L. Two distinct activation energy of Nitrosomonas sp. at temperature $6-15^{\circ}C\;and\;15-35^{\circ}C$ was 93.1 and 25.0 KJ/mol, respectively. Nitrate accumulation was observed at temperature over $15^{\circ}C.$

Electrocatalytic effects for the reduction of thionyl chloride in $LiAICI_4/SOCl_2$ electrolyte solution containing Schiff base M(II) (M; Co and Fe) complexes are evaluated by determining kinetic parameters with cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry at a glassy carbon electrode. The charge transfer process during the reduction of thionyl chloride is affected by the concentration of the catalyst. The catalytic effects are demonstrated from both a shift of the reduction potential for the thionyl chloride toward a more positive direction and an increase in peak currents. Catalytic effects are larger in thionyl chloride solutions containing the binuclear [M(II) $_2$ (TSBP)] complex rather than mononuclear [M(II)(BSDT)] complexes. Significant improvements in the cell performance have been noted in terms of both thermodynamics and activation energy for the thionyl chloride reduction. The activation energy calculated from the Arrhenius plots is 4.5-5.9 kcal/mole at bare glassy carbon electrodes. The activation energy calculated for the catalyst containing solution is 3.3-4.9 kcalmole, depending on whether the temperature is lowered or rasied.

Respiration of 'Fuyu' persimmon (Diospyros kaki) fruits were measured in terms of oxygen consumption rate and carbon dioxide evolution by closed system experiments at 0, 5, and $20^{\circ}C$. Enzyme kinetics-based respiration model was used to describe respiration rate as function of $O_2\;and\;CO_2$ gas concentrations $(R=V_m[O_2]/K_m+(1+[CO_2]/K_i)[O_2])$, and Arrhenius equation was applied to analyze temperature effect. $V_m\;and\;K_m$ increased, while $K_i$ decreased, with increasing temperature. $K_m\;of\;O_2$ consumption was greater than that of $CO_2$ evolution at equal temperature. Inhibitory effect of reduced $O_2$ level on $O_2$ consumption was more prominent than that on $CO_2$ evolution. Activation energy of respiration decreased with reduced $O_2$ and elevated $CO_2$ concentrations. Activation energy of $CO_2$ evolution was greater than that of $O_2$ consumption. Permeable package experiments verified respiration model parameters by showing good agreement between predicted and experimental gas concentrations in package.

It was mathematically analyzed at which steps to activate TTI in the cold chain for Alaska pollack, assuming that the performance of a commercial TTI product, and Fresh-check, could not always be optimized for the pollack. Three places were selected for the TTI activation, such as on fishing ship, Busan cooperative fish market, and mart. First, the kinetic and Arrhenius temperature dependent models were experimentally built under isothermal conditions. The color index of TTI and the level of Pseudomonas spp. of pollack were measured at time intervals. Second, the resultant models were used in the mathematical calculations for dynamic temperature conditions included in the cold chain. As a result, the TTI activated at the mart place showed the best agreement between the spoilage time of the pollack and the time for the TTI color to reach its end-point. It was therefore found that it is practically important to optimally select the TTI activation place or time when using a commercial TTI product.

The influencing factor in drying characteristics of fluidized bed drying with different drying conditions for husked barley were carried out. This fluidized drying mechanism of husked barley was consisted of consecutive two falling rate parts, first falling rate period and second falling rate period without showing constant rate period. The drying rate constant was increased with decreasing charged amount and relative humidity and increasing air temperature and air velocity. Since the drying rate constant expressed by Arrhenius type equation in the falling rate period showed good linearity, the falling rate period was condsidered as the controlling step. The activation energy of first falling step was 1,100 cal/gmol, while for second falling step the values showed 1,600 cal/gmol.

The effects of 1 mol% N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate(BPH) as a thermal latent initiator and blend compositions composed of cycloaliphatic and DGEBA epoxies were investigated in the rheological properties and cure kinetics. Latent properties were performed by measurement of the conversion as a function of reaction time using isothermal DSC at $150^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$ Rheological properties of the blend systems were investigated in terms of isothermal experiments using a rheometer. The gelation time was obtained from the evaluation of storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G") and damping factor (tan$\delta$)). Cross-linking activation energy ($E_c$) was also determined from the Arrhenius equation based on gel time and curing temperature. As a result, the gel time and cross-linking activation energy increased with increasing DGEBA composition. The cure activation energies ($E_a$) were obtained by Kissinger method using dynamic DSC thermograms. In this work, the cure activation energy decreased with increasing CAE concentration, which might be resulted from the short repeat units, simple side-groups and viscosity of reaction media.edia.

Recently, self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS), related to metallic and ceramic powder interactions, has attracted huge interest from more and more researchers, because it can provide an attractive, energy-efficient approach to the synthesis of simple and complex materials. The adiabatic temperature $T_{ad}$ and apparent activation energy analysis of different thermit systems plays an important role in thermodynamic studies on combustion synthesis. After establishing and verifying a mathematic calculation program for predicting adiabatic temperatures, based on the thermodynamic theory of combustion synthesis systems, the adiabatic temperatures of the NiO/Al aluminothermic system during self-propagating high-temperature synthesis were investigated. The effect of a diluting agent additive fraction on combustion velocity was studied. According to the simulation and experimental results, the apparent activation energy was estimated using the Arrhenius diagram of $ln(v/T_{ad}){\sim}/T_{ad}$ based on the combustion equation given by Merzhanov et al. When the temperature exceeds the boiling point of aluminum (2,790 K), the apparent activation energy of the NiO/Al aluminothermic system is $64{\pm}14$ kJ/mol. In contrast, below 2,790 K, the apparent activation energy is $189{\pm}15$ kJ/mol. The process of combustion contributed to the mass-transference of aluminum reactant of the burning compacts. The reliability of the simulation results was experimentally verified.

The long term integrity of concrete cask is very important for spent nuclear fuel dry storage system. However, there are serious concerns about early deterioration of concrete cask from creaking and corrosion of reinforcing steel by chloride ion because the cask is usually located in seaside, expecially by combined deterioration such as chloride ion and heat, carbonation. This study is to investigate the relation between temperature and chloride ion diffusion of concrete. Immersion tests using 3.5% NaCl solution that were controlled in four level of temperature, i.e. 20, 40, 65, and $90^{\circ}C$, were conducted for four months. The chloride ion diffusion coefficient of concrete was predicted based on the results of profiles of Cl- ion concentration with the depth direction of concrete specimens using the method of potentiometric titration by $AgNO_3$. Test results indicate that the diffusion coefficient of chloride ion increases remarkably with increasing temperature, and there was a linear relation between the natural logarithm values of the diffusion coefficients and the reciprocal of the temperature from the Arrhenius plots. Activation energy of concrete in this study was about 46.6 (W/C = 40%), 41.7 (W/C = 50%), 30.7 (W/C = 60%) kJ/mol under a temperature of up to $90^{\circ}C$, and concrete with lower water-cement ratio has a tendency towards having higher temperature dependency.

The kinetics of browning reaction of dried shrimp powder samples were investigated during storage. The temperature conditions of the ding process were $25^{\circ}C\;and\;45^{\circ}C$, and the samples were stored at water activity ($a_w$) of 0.33, 0.44, 0.52, 0.65 and temperatures of $35^{\circ}C,\;45^{\circ}C,\;55^{\circ}C$ and temperature fluctuations between $33^{\circ}C\;and\;55^{\circ}C$. When the shrimp was dried at $25^{\circ}C$ the activation energies obtained from the Arrhenius plot ranged from 13.57 to 14.33 kcal/mol. From these energies of activation, the $Q_{10}$ values at $25^{\circ}C$ showed 1.93 to 2.00. In the case of drying at $45^{\circ}C$ the activation energies were $13.12{\sim}13.61\;kcal/mol$ and $Q_{10}$ values were $1.89{\sim}1.93$, respectively. In addition, a storage study under square-wave fluctuating temperature conditions was carried out by varying the shrimp sample temperature between $35^{\circ}C\;and\;55^{\circ}C$ within 7 days regular fluctuation cycle. The data obtained from the fluctuating temperature storage study will be used in the prediction of shelf-lives. The shelf-lives assessed at $25^{\circ}C$ from the accelerated shelf-life tests ranged from 4 days at aw 0.65 to 139 days at aw 0.33.
