This study aimed to enhance rutin contents by controlling germination condition for manufacturing buckwheat sprouts. Two kinds of buckwheat, a common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) and a tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum Gaertner) were used. By comparing the rutin content of two buckwheats, tartary buckwheat was 487 ppm, about 36 times higher than common buckwheat. Both common buckwheat and tartary buckwheat which germinated and grew under the light had higher rutin content relatively. In case of tartary buckwheat, rutin content of over 10 cm sprout was 4,579 ppm (without the light), and 5,160 ppm (with the light). Furthermore, tartary buckwheat was germinated and grew under different light strengths from 2,000 to 22,000 Lux. The rutin contents of tartary buckwheat sprout that was grown under the 22,000 Lux light was the highest. The rutin content was increased dramatically at 14,000 Lux of light. From 14,000 to 22,000 Lux, there was a little change on rutin content. Therefore, the condition of 14,000 Lux light was determined optimal for manufacturing tartary buckwheat sprouts. Also, rutin contents of extracts treated with 60, 70, 80 and $90^{\circ}C$ during different time had no significant difference. Therefore, rutin of tartary buckwheat sprout extract had thermostability up to $90^{\circ}C$.

s-Tetrazine is the essential candidate of many energetic compounds due to its high nitrogen content, enthalpy of formation and thermal stability. The present study explores the design of s-tetrazine derivatives in which different $-NO_2$, $-NH_2$ and $-N_3$ substituted azoles are attached to the tetrazine ring via C-N linkage. The density functional theory (DFT) is used to predict the geometries, heats of formation (HOFs) and other energetic properties. The predicted results show that azide group plays a very important role in increasing HOF values of the s-tetrazine derivatives. The densities for designed molecules were predicted by using the crystal packing calculations. The introduction of $-NO_2$ group improves the density as compared to $-N_3$, and $-NH_2$ groups and hence the detonation performance. Bond dissociation energy analysis and insensitivity correlations revealed that amino derivatives are better candidates considering insensitivity and stability.

The application of metal caps has been continuously increased as real life are extended. Metal caps is usually made of aluminum and polyethylene(PE) as packing. Since metal caps contain 75% aluminum on a weight basis, metal caps may be a valuable source when these were properly recovered. The recovery methods of metal caps have mechanical peeling and incineration. However these are either hard to apply in some case or environmentally unacceptable. So in this investigation, recovery method of aluminum from metal caps was investigated using pyrolysis. The result shows that pyrolysis temperature and pyrolysis time was $450^{\circ}C$ and 120min. respectively. Also 100% of aluminum was recovered from metal caps. Heat content of recovered oil was high enough to use as a fuel representing 7,425.0, 7,793.1, 7,583.2, 7,726.2(cal/g). Heavy metal contens in the oil were under regulatory limit indicating.

The liquid-phase concentration from the interior to the surface region and its influence on the microstructural changes were investigated in pressureless sintered $\beta$-SiC Surface reaction-layer was formed by reaction of packing powder and volatile components on the surface during sintering which was induced the concentration of liquid-phase in the surface regions. The microstructural changes between the surface region and the interior were appeared in sintered specimen which was resulted from the difference of liquid-phase content during sintering. Microstructural changes were observd with the depth of about 250${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ from he surface. The grain size and aspect ratio of SiC in the interior are larger than those in the surface region and the rate of transforma-tion of $\beta$-to $\alpha$-SiC during sintering is higher in the interior than that in the surface region.

The storage stabilities of philipines; bananas were investigated according to the storage pretreatments and packaging methods during 60 days storage at $13^{\circ}C$. The better storage stability was got in bananas packaged with $60\mum$ low density polyethlene(PE) film inside the carton box than those without inside pack. Radiation gave the adverse effects on effects on bananas was only 20 days. And Shelf-life of bananas in no inner pack was 20 days. Soluble solid content of bananas packaged with PE film was 17 Brix degree after 60 days storage, but that with no inner package was around 20 after 20 days. Color was below 3 in color chart after 60 days storage and hardness was rapidly decreased from 40 days in bananas packaged with PE film, but color was became to 3 color after 30 days and hardness was rapidly decreased after 20 days in bananas without inner package. rarcentage of deteriorated bananas were below 3% in PE films after 60 days strorage, but 100% after 40 days in bananas without inner package.

Spherical-type zirconia granules are successfully fabricated by a spray-drying process using a water solvent slurry, and the change in the green density of the granule powder compacts is examined according to the organic polymers used. Two organic binders, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), which are dissolved in a water solvent and have different degrees of polymerization, are applied to the slurry with a plasticizer (polyethylene glycol). The granules employing a binder with a higher degree of polymerization (PVA) are not broken under a uniaxial press; consequently, they exhibit a poor green density of $2.4g/cm^3$. In contrast, the granule powder compacts employing a binder with a lower degree of polymerization (HEMA) show a higher density of $2.6g/cm^3$ with an increase in plasticizer content. The packing behavior of the granule powders for each organic polymer system is studied by examining the microstructure of the fracture surface at different applied pressures.

This is the study for the removal of a toxic heavy metal ions and the recycling of expanded polystyrene wastes. Thus expanded polystyrene wastes collected from the packing materials of TV or chemicals and dissolved by $80wt.\%$ solvent(N, N-Dimethylacrylamide), electrospun in DC 20kV by power supply. Generally, the electrospinning is a process of manufacture to the fibers of nanosize from polymer solution. Manufactured nanofiber mats by electrospinning were sulfonated by cone.-sulphuric acid with $Ag_2S_O_4$ catalysts for the exchange capacity of heavy metal ions and the properties of structure with sulfonated time investigated by FESEM(Feild Emission Scaning Electron Microscope). The ion exchange capacity of light metal$(Na^+)$, Cd(II) and Ni(II), and by a nanofiber mats were 1.94[mmo1/g-dry-mat), 1.72(mmol/g-dry-mat), 1.24(mmol/g-dry-mat), respectively., and water uptake content showed a similar trend with IEC. and The selectivity coefficients $K^M_H$ of Cd(II), Ni((II) ions showed 0.324, 0.228. respectively.

In order to improve the lithium ion battery's performance, the carbon nanofibers were introduced to the anode electrode fabricated with natural graphite particles. The influence of structural adjustment of the particles by the introduction method of carbon nanofibers and the content of carbon nanofibers on the electrical property and charge/discharge characteristics of the electrode were investigated. The electrode fabricated with the mixture of 10 wt% of carbon nanofibers grown separately and 90 wt% of graphite particles showed an excellent discharge capacity of 400 mAh/g and the improved cycle performance. The improved performance could be explained by that the carbon nanofibers shortened and uniformly distributed on the surface of graphite particles by ball milling increased the stability for the intercalation/deintercalation of lithium ion and increased the electrical conductivity due to the closed packing between graphite particles.

Characteristics of a downflow anaerobic packed bed reactor with raschig ring ceramics as a packing were measured and discussed for the basic evaluation of the process. A synthesized glucose substrate wastewater were used as a feed and process characteristics such as pH, biogas production, composition of produced gas, COD removal and VSS were measured with the hydraulic retention time (HRT) changing from 0.25 to 2 days. As a result, this type of reactor was applicable in continuous operation within the given HRT range and the transient period approaching the steady state was about 20 days. The content of methane in produced gas increase with HRT was always high above 50% enough to use as energy source. The COD removal efficiency increased gradually as HRT increased. The axial profile of VSS concentration in the reactor usually showed the maximum at the lower region and the minimum at the middle. The VSS concentration at the upper region and the exit appeared similarly. However, at 0.25 day of HRT, the VSS concentration of effluent became higher than that of the upper region. Therefore the optimum HRT of this reactor occurred about 0.5 day, at which the production of methane began to be just stabilized and loss of VSS and COD removal were resonable.
