본 연구의 목적은 국내 상품화된 일반 우유와 저지방 우유의 우식원성을 CDC Biofilm Reactor를 사용한 세균막 모델을 통해 비교하는 것이다. 소의 법랑질 시편에 Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175 세균막을 형성하였다. 하루에 3번 일반 우유, 저지방 우유와 0.9% 생리식염수를 세균막에 노출시켰다. 시간의 흐름에 따른 배지의 pH 변화를 측정하였다. 실험 5일째 시편에서 세균막을 분리하여 세균의 집락 형성단위를 측정하였다. 세균막의 두께는 공초점현미경으로 관찰하였다. 실험 전, 후의 표면미세경도를 측정하여 시편의 미세경도변화율을 평가하였다. 세 군 간의 pH 변화 양상과 세균막 두께는 유사하였으며 미세경도변화율과 세균의 집락형성단위는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p > 0.05). 본 연구 결과, 일반 우유와 저지방 우유의 우식원성은 차이를 보이지 않았으며, 우유는 우식에 대해 안전한 식품임을 확인하였다.

This paper discussed the shape effect of ceramic support carrier in order to facilitate biomass immobilization. The shape of ceramic support carrier was modified hollow pipe type into hollow gear type. After seeding, microorganisms were attached in crevices where protection from shear forces or surfaces where easy to contact with support carrier surface. In case of hollow gear type carrier, initial attachment rate was faster than that of hollow pipe type and obtained thick biofilm. Synthetic wastewater(COD:75~880 mg/L, organic loading rate:0.36~4.22 kgCOD/㎥.d) was treated aerobic fixed bed biofilm reactor where 100% of the volume was filled with the ceramic carrier. COD removal efficiency of reactor filled with gear type support carrier was a little high withing 70 days, and then showed similar removal efficiency. It was found that highly loaded operation with up to 4.22 kgCOD/㎥.d was possible in both reactor. Total biomass amounts of pipe type was higher than gear type, however, attached biomass of gear type was higher than that of pipe type.

The lab-scale anaerobic continuous reactor which was filled with the sludge of anaerobic digestion from Suyoung wastewater treatment plant was operated by feeding of various concentrations and flow rates. This experiment indicated that more than 6,870 mgCOD/L of substrate concentration was required to promote good metabolism and growth of anaerobic biomass. And increasing loading rate slowly was also required in order to treat substrate of higher concentration and higher loading rate. The substrate concentration of about 10,000 mgCOD/L was adequate to generate biogas efficiently. The pH was sharply decreased at the onset of higher leading rate, but the pH was restabilized soon at 8. During the experiment, the amount of the attached biomass was kept constant.

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has been widely used as an initial mucolytic agent and is generally used as an antioxidant to help alleviate various inflammatory symptoms. NAC reduces bacterial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) production, bacterial adhesion to the surface and strength of mature biofilm. The efficacy has been shown to inhibit proliferation of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In membrane bioreactor (MBR) processes, which contain a variety of gram negative bacteria, biofilm formation has become a serious problem in stable operation. In this study, use of NAC as an inhibitor of biofilm contamination was investigated using the center for disease control (CDC) reactors with MBR sludge. Biomass reduction was confirmed with CLSM images of membrane surfaces by addition of NAC, which was more efficient as the concentration of NAC was increased to 1.5 mg/mL. NAC addition also showed decreases in EPS concentrations of the preformed biofilm, indicating that NAC was able to degrade EPS in the mature biofilm. NAC addition was also effective to inhibit biofilm formation by MBR sludge, which consisted of various microorganisms in consortia.

미생물막 유동층 반응기로 염료공장 폐수의 유기물 처리효율을 고찰하였다. 공장폐수를 2배, 3배 및 6배 희석하여 처리하였던 바, 각 희석배율 모두 F/M비가 0.2에서 0.3으로 증가할 때 처리효율이 급격히 낮아졌다. 한편, 같은 F/M비에서는 희석율이 높을수록 처리효율이 높았으며 수리학적 체류시간이 증가함에 따라서 처리효율도 증가하였다. 6배 희석시 F/M비가 0.2 이하에서 BOD 처리효율이 $90{\sim}97%$로 가장 좋았다. 또 반응기 설계를 위한 통역학적 계수 Y, $k_b$값 및 상관계수 r은 2배 희석시 $Y=0.3365\;k_d=0.03782\;day^{-1}\;r=0.997$, 3배 희석시 $Y=0.3341\;k_d=0.0275\;day^{-1}\;r=0.996$ 및 6배 희석시는 $Y=0.5460\;k_d=0.03434\;day^{-1}\;r=0.998$로 나타났다.

The study was concerned with the biological denitrification of wastewater using the fluidization of biofilm-coated carbon particles. And the effect of Glucose and biofilm thickness on denitrification was mainly investigated. Experimental results showed that biofilm thickness increased with the growth of bacteria and 14 days after the beginning of operation, the thickness approached 300-310${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. It was found that biofilm thickness was directly concerned with the removal efficiency of NO$_3$$^{[-10]}$ -N. As the results of experiments to find out the influence of Glucose on denitrification, Glucose, 60% excess from stoichiometric quantity was adequate and sufficient to react the bacteria with NO$_3$$^{[-10]}$ -N.

A mathematical model for a three phase fluidized bed bioreactor (TFBBR) was proposed to describe oxygen utilization rate, biomass concentration and the removal efficiency of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) in wastewater treatment. The model consisted of the biofilm model to describe the oxygen uptake rate and the hydraulic model to describe flow characteristics to cause the oxygen distribution in the reactor. The biofilm model represented the oxygen uptake rate by individual bioparticle and the hydrodynamics of fluids presented an axial dispersion flow with back mixing in the liquid phase and a plug flow in the gas phase. The difference of setting velocity along the column height due to the distributions of size and number of bioparticle was considered. The proposed model was able to predict the biomass concentration and the dissolved oxygen concentration along the column height. The removal efficiency of COD was calculated based on the oxygen consumption amounts that were obtained from the dissolved oxygen concentration. The predicted oxygen concentration by the proposed model agreed reasonably well with experimental measurement in a TFBBR. The effects of various operating parameters on the oxygen concentration were simulated based on the proposed model. The media size and media density affected the performance of a TFBBR. The dissolved oxygen concentration was significantly affected by the superficial liquid velocity but the removal efficiency of COD was significantly affected by the superficial gas velocity.

새로운 페니실린 발효방법으로서, Penicillin chrysogenum의 포자를 담체의 미세구멍 조직에 흡착시킨 후 배양하여 얻은 균사증식담체를 이용하여 페니실린 발효를 시도하였다. 고정화 담체로써는 Celite가 가장 효율적이었으며, 이때 균사는 담체의 내부에서부터 포자가 발아하여 담체의 표면에서 증식하기 때문에 매우 안정된 biofilm growth를 얻을 수 있었다. 프라스크 배양에서 담체의 양을 5-10% 첨가하였을 때 세포의 증식과 페니실린의 생산이 전통적인 dispersed filamentous growth 에 의한 발효방법보다 현저히 증가되었다. 그러나 두 경우 모두 세포의 활성은 1900 unit/mg-cellㆍhr로 일정하였다. 균사증식 담체를 이용하여 유동층 발효조에서 반연속식으로 발효를 진행시킨 결과 페니실린의 연속생산이 가능함을 발견하였다. 그러나 발효조내에서 biofilm growth시 film두께의 조절과 페니실린 생산성을 일정수준으로 오랫동안 유지시킬 수 있는 방법이 앞으로 연구되어야 할 것으로 판단되었다.

For the nitrate removal in recirculating aquaculture system, a denitrifying bacterium, Pseudomonas fluorescens, was isolated from municipal sewage and the cells were immobilized in modified-polyvinly alchol (PVA) gel beads. The immobilized cells in both the fixed-and fluidized-bed reactors showed 98% of denitrification efficiency with 6hr HRT, and the removal efficiency of total organic carbon (TOC) was above 90%. Form scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation, it was known that biofilm formed in fixed-bed reactor was thicker than that formed in fluidized-bed reactor as operation time passed.
