폐맥주효모로부터 Hop의 고미성분을 추출하는 최적조건은 이산화탄소 유량 50 mL/min, 입자크기 0.35 mm, 시료 20 g, 보조용매(95% 에탄올) 4 mL/min, 총 추출시간 30분, 추출온도 $45^{\circ}C$, 추출 압력 1800 psia로 원 시료와 비교한 결과 Hop의 향기 성분과 고미성분이 거의 제거됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 보조용매의 효과는 추출물질의 표면적을 크게 하여 침투력을 높여주고 추출물 중의 휘발성이 강한 성분이나 색의 제거에 상당한 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다(13,14).

Reducing carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) exhaust has become a major issue for society in the last few years, especially since the initial release of the Kyoto Protocol in 1997 that strictly limited the emissions of greenhouse gas for each country. One of the primary sectors affecting the levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases is agriculture where $CO_2$ is not only consumed by plants but also produced from various types of soil and agricultural ecosystems including greenhouses. In greenhouse cultivation, $CO_2$ concentration plays an essential role in the photosynthesis process of crops. Optimum control of greenhouse $CO_2$ enrichment based on accurate monitoring of the added $CO_2$ can improve profitability through efficient crop production and reduce environmental impact, compared to traditional management practices. In this study, a sensor-based control system that could estimate the required $CO_2$ concentration considering emission from soil for cucumber greenhouses was developed and evaluated. The relative profitability index (RPI) was defined by the ratio of growth rate to supplied $CO_2$. RPI for a greenhouse controlled at lower set point of $CO_2$ concentration (500 ${\mu}mol{\cdot}mol^{-1}$) was greater than that of greenhouse at higher set point (800 ${\mu}mol{\cdot}mol^{-1}$). Evaluation tests to optimize $CO_2$ enrichment concluded that the developed control system would be applicable not only to minimize over-exhaust of $CO_2$ but also to maintain the crop profitability.

Anaerobic digestion sludge was cultivated in an electrochemical bioreactor (ECB) to enrich the hydrogenotrophic methanogens. A modified graphite felt cathode with neutral red (NR-cathode) was charged with electrochemical reducing power generated from a solar cell. The methane and carbon dioxide collected in a Teflon bag from the ECB were more than 80 ml/l of reactant/day and less than 20 ml/l of reactant/day, respectively, whereas the methane and carbon dioxide collected from a conventional bioreactor (CB) was around 40 ml/l of reactant/day, respectively. Moreover, the maximal volume ratios of methane to carbon dioxide (M/C ratio) collected in the Teflon bag from the ECB and CB were 7 and 1, respectively. The most predominant methanogens isolated from the CB on the $20^{th}$, $80^{th}$, and $150^{th}$ days of incubation were hydrogenotrophs. The methanogenic diversity analyzed by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) of the 16S rDNA variable region was higher in the ECB than in the CB. The DNA extracted from the TGGE bands was more than 95% homologous with hydrogenotrophic methanogens in the ECB, but was an aceticlastic methanogen in the CB. In conclusion, the ECB was demonstrated as a useful system for enriching hydrogenotrophic methanogens and increasing the M/C ratio of the gas product.

커피의 향기 성분의 증가를 위해 초임계 이산화탄소를 사용하고, 일반적인 커피 추출 방법인 에스프레소를 통하여 증가 효율을 알아보았다. 커피 음료의 향 성분은 변형된 헤드스페이스법으로 수거하여 분석하였다. 모든 장치는 향 성분이 유출되지 않도록 밀폐하여 수행하였다. 분석은 GC를 이용하였고 다섯 가지 향기 성분을 표준품으로 하였다. 초임계 이산화탄소는 압력과 온도의 영향을 받아 밀도와 용해도가 변화하고 이로써 용해력이 변화하기 때문에, 압력과 온도의 최적화 실험을하였다. 추출 후 product와 헤드스페이스의 향기 성분을 모두 분석하였고 그 결과 350 bar, 80$^\circ$C의 조건에서 최대의 효율을 나타내었다. 또한 추출 시 헤드스페이스로 날아가는 향기 성분보다 product로 추출되는 향기 성분이 76.6배 이상 많았다. 커피의 초임계 추출물을 음용하기 위해서 초임계 커피 음료를 만들고, 이의 향기 성분 증가 효율을 확인하기 위해서 초임계 추출 과정을 거치지 않은 커피도 에스프레소로 추출하여 비교하였다. 그 결과 초임계 이산화탄소 추출로 커피 음료의 향기 성분을 2.3배 증가시킬 수 있었다.

The current study aimed to investigate the impact of CO₂ enrichment on the width of annual tree rings, earlywood and latewood, and the area of annual growth of Pinus densiflora Siebold & Zucc. grown in open-top chamber (OTC). To this end, two CO₂ enrichment cases were considered, namely 1.4 × increment (560 ppm in OTC-II) and 1.8 × (720 ppm in OTC-III) were compared with the current atmosphere (400 ppm in OTC-I). The CO₂ enrichment conditions for a period of 12 years (2010-2021) were considered, and all measurements were done through image analysis. The study showed that the increment in CO₂ concentrations positively affected the tree growth. The measurement data from the trees in OTC-III were considerably higher than those from OTC-I, whereas those from OTC-II were slightly higher than those from OTC-I. Decreasing patterns of the measured widths and area in 6-7 years after the beginning of CO₂ enrichment was found for all the OTCs. These patterns were possibly due to changes in the physiological features, such as aging. The findings of the present study can have potential uses as fundamental data for forest management considering CO₂ concentrations.

Gas separation membrane technology is useful for a variety of applications [1, 2]. such as hydrogen recovery from reactor purge gas, nitrogen and oxygen enrichment, water vapor removal from air, stripping of carbon dioxide from natural gas. etc. Although membrane separations are attractive because of low energy costs and simple operation, low permeabilities and/or selectivity often limit membrane applications [3, 4].(omitted)

The purpose of this study is to obtain low-emission and high-efficiency by hydrogen enriched LPG fuel in LPG engine and is to clarify the effects of hydrogen enrichment in LPG fuelled engine on exhaust emission and performance. An experimental study was carried out to obtain fundamental data for performance and emission characteristics of hydrogen enrichment in LPG engine. The research was held by changing the hydrogen ratio to 0, 5, 10, 20% in 1500rpm, bmep 2 and 4bar. The result turned out that the combustion duration was shortened due to fast flame propagation of hydrogen. And the amount of Carbon dioxide and Hydrocarbon decreased. However, the amount of NOX increased, which is thought to be the result of high adiabatic flame temperature of hydrogen. It has been confirmed that this phenomenon has changed by the Hydrogen mixing ratio.

Microbial electrosynthesis has recently been considered a potentially sustainable biotechnology for converting carbon dioxide (CO₂) into valuable biochemicals. In this study, bioelectrochemical acetate production from CO₂ was studied in an H-type two-chambered reactor system with an anaerobic microbial consortium. Metal-rich mud flat was used as the inoculum and incubated electrochemically for 90 days under a cathode potential of -1.1 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). Four consecutive batch cultivations resulted in a high acetate concentration and productivity of 93 mmol/L and 7.35 mmol/L/day, respectively. The maximal coulombic efficiency (rate of recovered acetate from supplied electrons) was estimated to be 64%. Cyclic voltammetry showed a characteristic reduction peak at -0.2~-0.4 V, implying reductive acetate generation on the cathode electrode. Furthermore, several electroactive acetate-producing microorganisms were identified based on denaturing- gradient-gel-electrophoresis (DGGE) and 16S rRNA sequence analyses. These results suggest that the mud flat can be used effectively as a microbial source for bioelectrochemical CO₂ conversion.

수소-이산화탄소(5:1) 혼합가스 순환장치를 장착한 반응기를 이용하여 독립영양형 메탄생산세균을 농화하였으며, 생산된 메탄의 농도는 10%미만이었다. 30일 이상 농화배양한 후 16S-rDNA 동질성을 이용하여 반응기에서 생장하고 있는 세균을 분석한 결과 수소를 단일 에너지 원으로 이용하는 Methanobacterium curvum와 Methanobacterium oryzae로 확인되었다. 농화된 세균을 hollow-fiber수소 공급장치를 장착한 반응기에 배양하여 메탄의 농도를 30%까지 향상하였다. 그러나 농화된 세균을 hollow-fiber 수소 공급장치와 미량의 수소를 생산하고 전기화학적 환원성 환경을 유도할 수 있는 장치를 장착한 복합형 반응기에 적용한 결과 메탄의 생산성은 50%가지 향상하였다. 이러한 결과는 독립영양형 메탄생산세균을 농화 또는 대량 배양하기 위해서 hollow-fiber 수소 공급장치와 전기화학적 환원력을 복합적으로 이용하는 것이 유리하다는 것을 보여주는 것이다.

국내의 늘어나는 천연가스의 수요를 충족시키면서 지구온난화에 대한 대안으로 바이오가스를 도시가스로 활용하는 방안이 자연스럽게 주목받고 있다. 도시가스사업법의 개정을 통해 바이오가스의 생산 및 공급의 제도적인 기반을 구축했지만, 바이오가스내의 불순물을 제거하고 이산화탄소를 분리하여 고순도의 메탄을 제조하는 국내 기술이 부족하여 실질적인 활용이 어려운 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고순도의 바이오메탄 농축을 위하여 멤브레인(Membrane)법, 물흡수법(Water absorption), 화학흡수법(Chemical absorption), 흡착법 4가지의 공법을 적용하여 각 시스템별 운전시나리오를 작성하고 비교하여 최적공법을 도출하였으며, 시스템별 케이스 연구를 통해 최적의 시스템을 구축할 수 있었다. 이를 이용하여 순도 97%이상의 바이오메탄을 생산하여 도시가스로 이용하기에 충분하였으며, 회수율이 98%를 넘어 그간 경제성이 없어 버려지던 소량의 바이오 가스도 회수하여 활용 할 수 있게 되었다.
