상용 수소연료전지 차량은 기체 수소를 고압으로 압축하여 차량 내 저장 탱크로 저장하는 방식으로 충전이 진행된다. 이러한 압축 과정은 기체의 온도 상승을 유발하며, 저장 탱크의 안전성을 확보하기 위해 온도는 제한된다. 따라서 이러한 온도 상승을 설명하기 위한 열전달 모델이 필요하다. 열전달 모델은 대류 열전달 현상을 포함하며 정확한 대류 열전달 계수 추산이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 수소 충전 과정에서의 대류 열전달 계수를 물리적 현상을 고려한 다양한 상관관계식을 이용하여 계산하고 비교 분석하였다. 수소 충전 과정은 디스펜서로부터 탱크 입구까지의 충전라인과 차량 내 저장 탱크로 분류하였고, 각각의 내부 및 외부에서의 대류 열전달 계수를 질량 유량, 직경, 온도와 압력 등 공정 변수에 따라 추산하였다. 그 결과, 충전라인 내부의 경우 저장 탱크 내부에서보다 대류 열전달 계수가 약 1000배 크게 나타났고, 충전라인 외부의 경우 저장 탱크 외부에서보다 대류 열전달 계수가 약 3배 크게 나타났다. 마지막으로 각 과정에서의 대류 열전달 계수를 종합 분석한 결과 전체 수소 충전 과정에서 저장 탱크 외부에서의 열전달 계수가 가장 낮아 열전달 현상을 지배하는 것으로 나타났다.

Microalgae can offer an attractive way of generating renewable and sustainable biodiesel. Biodiesel derived from microagae can have lower impact on the environment and food supply than biodiesel produced from crops. But biodiesel derived from microagae have poor fuel properties at low temperature depending on their species. In this study, it was investigated that fuel characteristics of biodiesel derived from Tetraselmis sp. and cold weather performance of biodiesel blend (BD3, 3 vol.% biodiesel - 97 vol.% diesel). The startability and operability of the passenger car in BD3 was good at $-20^{\circ}C$.

We examined optimum culture conditions of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides B5 for effective utilization of substrate and sunlight for hydrogen production. The optimum concentration range of DL-lactate as electron donor for hydrogen production by resting cells was from 5 to 50mM, and optimun CN ratio (lactate/glutamat) for maintenence of hydrogen production activity by growing cultures was from 5 to 6. Hydrogen production by the cultures of low cell density (0.36mg/ml dry cells) was saturated with 10 Klux light intensity. Under constant illumination of 50Klux which was set up as the average medium value of annual variation of sunlight intensity, hydrogen production with various cell densities in the culture resulted in highest production rate (132${\mu}$l/hr/mg dry cells) up to 0.64mg/ml dry cells. However, the amount of total hydrogen production was saturated with cell density of 2.1mg/ml dry cells. In addition to these, the optimum inner thickness pervious to light of the culture vessel for hydrogen production which was measured under sunlight was 5 cm.

본 연구에서는 Clostridium beijerinckii Donker 1926을 이용한 연속식 혐기성 소화공정에서 수소 생산과 동력학적 특성을 고찰하였다. 기질은 glucose를 사용하였고, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125일의 체류시간 (hydraulic retention time, HRT)에서 실험이 이루어졌으며, 모든 HRT의 조건에서 탄산화물은 99% 이상의 제거효율를 나타내었다. 체류시간이 짧을수록, COD 제거율은 낮은 반면에, 전체 가스 중에서 수소 가스 함량과 수소 발생량이 높게 나타났다. 또한, 정상상태에서, 증식 수율과 수소가스 생성 수율은 각각 0.27 g-VSS/g- glucose, 0.26 L/g-glucose로 나타났다. 본 실험에 사용된 균주를 glucose와 같이 당 성분이 함유된 폐수처리에 적용하면 수소를 생산할 수 있으며, 이러한 실험 결과들을 잘 활용하면 대체에너지로서, 실제적인 수소가스 생산 시스템에 적용할 수 있을 것이다.

Objectives: The aim of this research is to establish Similar Exposure Groups (SEGs) for chemical and biological risk factors that occur in farm work involving 24 tasks among 15 crops. Methods: To categorize SEGs, work type, work environment, and similar tasks for each crop were considered. After confirming the chemical risk factors (pesticides, inorganic dust-total dust and PM₁₀, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide) and biological factors (organic dust-total dust and PM₁₀, and endotoxins) that occur in the crops and tasks, similar crops and tasks were selected as SEGs. Results: Among chemical risk factors, pesticides was selected for the SEGs, which was categorized by open field, greenhouse, fruit, and specialty crops. For inorganic dust, open field (plowing harrowing, seedling, planting, harvest, and sorting and packing) and specialty crops (plowing harrowing, seedling, planting, and harvest) were selected as SEGs. For ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, livestock (preparation of farm, management of nursery bed, feeding, shipment and manure treatment) were selected as SEGs. For biological risk factors such as organic dust (total dust, PM₁₀) and endotoxins, open field (manure application), greenhouse (plowing harrowing, planting, manure application, and harvest), fruit (manure application), specialty crops (manure application, making furrows, mixing mushroom media, harvest, and sorting and packing), and livestock (preparation of farm, maintaining poultry litter, feeding, shipment and manure treatment) were selected as SEGs. Conclusions: To establish similar exposure groups in agriculture, it is important that the characteristics of each hazard factor are categorized by identifying risk factors occurring by tasks.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a significant role in intracellular signaling and regulation, particularly when they are maintained at physiologic levels. However, excess ROS can cause cell damage and induce cell death. We recently reported that eIF2α phosphorylation protects hepatocytes from oxidative stress and liver fibrosis induced by fructose metabolism. Here, we found that hepatocyte-specific eIF2α phosphorylation-deficient mice have significantly reduced expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and altered EGFR-mediated signaling pathways. EGFR-mediated signaling pathways are important for cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival in many tissues and cell types. Therefore, we studied whether the reduced amount of EGFR is responsible for the eIF2α phosphorylation-deficient hepatocytes' vulnerability to oxidative stress. ROS such as hydrogen peroxide and superoxides induce both EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation and eIF2α phosphorylation. eIF2α phosphorylation-deficient primary hepatocytes, or EGFR knockdown cells, have decreased ROS scavenging ability compared to normal cells. Therefore, these cells are particularly susceptible to oxidative stress. However, overexpression of EGFR in these eIF2α phosphorylation-deficient primary hepatocytes increased ROS scavenging ability and alleviated ROS-mediated cell death. Therefore, we hypothesize that the reduced EGFR level in eIF2α phosphorylation-deficient hepatocytes is one of critical factors responsible for their susceptibility to oxidative stress.

Ethanol often accumulates during the process of wine fermentation, and mitophagy has critical role in ethanol output. However, the relationship between mitophagy and ethanol stress is still unclear. In this study, the expression of ATG11 and ATG32 genes exposed to ethanol stress was accessed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The result indicated that ethanol stress induced expression of the ATG11 and ATG32 genes. The colony sizes and the alcohol yield of atg11 and atg32 were also smaller and lower than those of wild type strain under ethanol whereas the mortality of mutants is higher. Furthermore, compared with wild type, the membrane integrity and the mitochondrial membrane potential of atg11 and atg32 exhibited greater damage following ethanol stress. In addition, a greater proportion of mutant cells were arrested at the G1/G0 cell cycle. There was more aggregation of peroxide hydrogen (H2O2) and superoxide anion (O2•-) in mutants. These changes in H2O2 and O2•- in yeasts were altered by reductants or inhibitors of scavenging enzyme by means of regulating the expression of ATG11 and ATG32 genes. Inhibitors of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (mtETC) also increased production of H2O2 and O2•- by enhancing expression of the ATG11 and ATG32 genes. Further results showed that activator or inhibitor of autophagy also activated or inhibited mitophagy by altering production of H2O2 and O2•. Therefore, ethanol stress induces mitophagy which improves yeast the tolerance to ethanol and the level of mitophagy during ethanol stress is regulated by ROS derived from mtETC.

Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are parasites that attack many field crops and orchard trees, and affect both the quantity and quality of the products. A root-colonizing bacterium, Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6, possesses beneficial traits including strong nematicidal activity. To determine the molecular mechanisms involved in the nematicidal activity of P. chlororaphis O6, we constructed two mutants; one lacking hydrogen cyanide production, and a second lacking an insecticidal toxin, FitD. Root drenching with wild-type P. chlororaphis O6 cells caused juvenile mortality in vitro and in planta. Efficacy was not altered in the fitD mutant compared to the wild-type but was reduced in both bioassays for the mutant lacking hydrogen cyanide production. The reduced number of galls on tomato plants caused by the wild-type strain was comparable to that of a standard chemical nematicide. These findings suggest that hydrogen cyanide-producing root colonizers, such as P. chlororaphis O6, could be formulated as "green" nematicides that are compatible with many crops and offer agricultural sustainability.

The PSA cycle was performed for the separation of binary gas mixture $H_2/Ar$ (80%/20%) using the six-step two-bed process. Adsorption equilibrium contains a LRC model for equilibrium adsorption isotherms and a LDF model for mass transfer. Aspen ADSIM, simulator was applied to predict the separation performance. The effect of cycle parameters such as feed rate, adsorption pressure and P/F ratio on the separation of hydrogen has been studied in experiment and simulation. In the results, maximize the recovery of hydrogen as a high purity was 13LPM feed flowrate, 120sec adsorption time, 11atm adsorption pressure and 0.1 P/F ratio in a cyclic steady-state come out since 10th cycle.
