We had the first committee meeting of the East Asia VLBI Consortium during the EAMA6 meeting held in Seoul. A VLBI network composed of telescopes in the East Asia region could provide extreme properties, and the coordination of them has been expected. The Committee of the East Asia VLBI Consortium is a standing committee to promote activities of the consortium, in which participating countries at present are China, Japan, and Korea over eight institutes/observatories. Here we introduce the Consortium and Committee.

BTX를 배출하는 지역에서 얻어진 슬러지를 적절한 배지에 3개월 간 적응시킨 결과, benzene과 toluene을 빠르게 분해하는 MY컨소시엄와 p-, m-, o-xylene을 빠르게 분해하는 MA컨소시엄을 획득하였다. 균주의 동정결과 MA 및 MA컨소시엄의 주된 균주는 Rhodococcus ruber DSM 43338T과 Rhodococcus sp.로 밝혀졌다. BTX 단일성분의 분해속도 측정결과 benzene > toluene > o-xylene > p-xylene > m-xylene의 순으로 분해가 일어났다. MY 및 MY컨소시엄으 동시배양을 이용한 2-5종의 복합 BTX의 분해실험결과 대부분의 경우 108시간내에 완전히 분해되었으며, 각 혼합물의 조성에 따라 촉진 및 방해작용을 나타내었다. 분 연구에서 획득한 2종의 미생물컨소시엄은 BTX의 생물학적 처리에 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

There are many eutrophic lakes by point and non-point pollution sources such as in dustrial waste water, domestic raw sewage, and mucks. The eutrophic lakes not only cause algal blooms but also destroy the ecosystem in the lakes due to high nutrient concentrations. The purpose of this study was to improve water quality in eutrophic lakes by cultivating microalgae using photobioreactors (PBRs) with selectively permeable mesh (SPM), supplying nutrients in the lake and inhibiting cell leakage by diffusion and water permeability. Chlorella vulgaris, was cultivated using PBRs with SPM installed in Inkyung Lake located in Inha university, Incheon, Korea. When cultivating C. vulgaris, $8.3g/m^2/day$ of average biomass productivity was obtained at 3 days. Furthermore, concentrations of total nitrogen and phosphorus were reduced by 35.7% and 84.2%, respectively, compared to initial condition and water quality in eutrophic lake was improved to oligotrophic environment. These results suggest that microalgal cultivation using PBRs with SPM in the lake could produce microalgal biomass as well as improve water quality by decreasing nutrient concentrations.

Four thermophilic bacterial species, including the iron-reducing bacterium Geobacillus sp. G2 and the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfotomaculum sp. SRB-M, were employed to integrate a bacterial consortium. A second consortium was integrated with the same bacteria, except for Geobacillus sp. G2. Carbon steel coupons were subjected to batch cultures of both consortia. The corrosion induced by the complete consortium was 10 times higher than that induced by the second consortium, and the ferrous ion concentration was consistently higher in iron-reducing consortia. Scanning electronic microscopy analysis of the carbon steel surface showed mineral films colonized by bacteria. The complete consortium caused profuse fracturing of the mineral film, whereas the non-iron-reducing consortium did not generate fractures. These data show that the iron-reducing activity of Geobacillus sp. G2 promotes fracturing of mineral films, thereby increasing steel corrosion.

Hexane을 유일 탄소원으로 첨가한 무기염 배지에서 hexane 생분해 속도와 비성장속도를 구하였고, $^{14}C-hexane$을 이용하여 무기화(mineralization) 정도를 측정하였다. 또한, 16S rDNA PCR-DGGE 분석기법을 활용하여 consortium의 미생물 군집 특성을 조사하였다. Consortium CH의 최대 비성장속도 (${\mu}_{max}$)값은 $0.2\;h^{-1}$이고, 최대 hexane 분해속도 ($V_{max}$)와 포화상수 ($K_{s}$)는 각각 460 ${\mu}mol{\cdot}g-DCW^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$ 및 25.87mM 이었다. Consortium CH는 $^{14}C-hexane$의 약 $49.1\%$를 무기화하였고, $43.6{\%}$의 $^{14}C-hexane$는 biomass를 증가시키는데 사용하였다. DGGE band로부터 얻은 clone들은 유류, biphenyl, PCE 및 폐가스 등과 같은 오염물질 분해능을 가진 세균들과 유사성이 가장 높았다. 본 연구에서 얻은 hexane 생분해용 consortium은 향후 hexane 제거용 생물학적 시스템을 개발하는데 유용하게 활용될 수 있다.

Nonylphenol (NP), which is well known as an endocrine disrupter, has been detected widely in untreated sewage or waste water streams. Given the necessity of discovering an eco-friendly method of degrading this toxic organic compound, this study was conducted to isolate NP-degrading microorganisms from the aqueous environment. NP-degrading microbes were isolated through NP-containing enrichment culture. Finally, a microbial consortium, SW-3, capable of degrading NP with high efficiency, was selected from the mixture sample. The microbial consortium SW-3 was able to degrade over 99% of 100 ppm NP in the culture medium for 40 days at $25^{\circ}C$. The microbial consortium SW-3 seemed to utilize NP as a carbon source, since NP was the sole carbon source in the culture medium. In order to isolate the NP-degrading bacterium, we further conducted single colony isolation using the microbial consortium SW-3. Four strains isolated from SW-3 exhibited lower NP-degradation efficiency than that of SW-3, suggesting that NP was degraded by the co-metabolism of the microbial consortium. We suggest that the microbial consortium obtained in this study would be useful in developing an eco-friendly bioremediation technology for NP degradation.

Cost-effective microalgae harvesting methods are necessary for economical production of algal biodiesel. In this study, membranes with various pore sizes and materials were examined for their potentials in application to gravity-filtration of Tetraselmis sp. KCTC12432BP. For this test, 10 L of Tetraselmis sp. culture (2 g/L) was loaded on each membrane and filtration rates were measured. Among the tested materials, a woven cotton fabric showed the fastest water drain rate (0.73 L/hr) without serious cell leakage. Cell density of the concentrates after filtration was 6.8 g/L, indicating 3.4-fold concentration compared with the initial algal culture. The result suggests that the woven cotton fabric could serve as filtration membrane for harvesting Tetraselmis sp. among the tested ones.

The effect of salinity on the nitrification efficiency of the nitrifier consortium was evaluated for the nitrification of saline wastewater. The nitrifier consortium, which was the activated sludge acclimated with ammonium as the only energy source, was used as the nitrifier for the salt acclimation. Airlift reactors for the nitrification of ammonia with increasing concentration in saline synthetic wastewater (35 g/I NaCD, and synthetic wastewater without salt as a control, were continuously operated with the nitrifier consortium for 43 days. The ammonia removal rate was about 23g ammonia-N/$m^3$/day in both the absence and presence of the salt. An accumulation of nitrite was observed in the saline nitrification reactor at an early period. However, the nitrite decreased to less than 1 mg/l after 39 days of operation. The salinity increased the acclimation time of the nitrifier consortium to obtain a stable marine nitrification system. However, the salt acclimated system showed the efficient removal of ammonia which was same as that without salt.
