In Korea, fermented fish has been playing an important role as a preserved and flavor rich food. It is said that the digestion of fish protein is due to both action of intrinsic (autolytic enzymes) and bacterial enzymes in fish. The mass production of fermented fish has been impeded since traditional method of fermentation requires a long duration for a complete digestion. A high concentration of salt and unsanitary condition are also considered disadvantages of the old method. To improve the quality of the product and to develop mechanized process of fermentation, fermentors which have such control device as temperature, pH and agitation control system have been urgently needed. In this study, a model design of a fermentor is studied. The calculation was based on the optimum conditions for enzymatic hydrolysis of fish protein which involve temperature, pH, viscosity and other factors.

The effect of thermal pretreatment conditions on hydrolysis characteristics of dairy manure and sawdust mixtures has been evaluated. Thermal pretreatment temperature varied between 35 and $120^{\circ}C$ and the period of the treatment changed between 30 and 1440min (24h). As thermal pretreatment temperature and duration increased, organic material solublization rates were improved. Maximum solubilizations of chemical oxygen demand (SCOD), carbohydrates, and volatile fatty acids(VFAs) were observed when dairy manure treated for one day at $120^{\circ}C$. Although one day treatment duration at $120^{\circ}C$ showed the highest SCOD, soluble carbohydrates, and VFAs concentration, its hydrolysis rate was only about 12%. The results reveal that the thermal pretreatment conditions tried in this study are not enough to solubilize the organic matter contained in dairy manure and sawdust mixtures. In order to maximize hydrolysis performance, the further research needs to determine the factors influences on organic material solubilization in addition to thermal pretreatment temperature and duration.

Lower termites need symbiotic microbes for cellulose digestion. Elizabethkingia miricola strain BM10 has been proposed as a symbiotic microbe that assists in low-temperature digestion and metabolism of Reticulitermes speratus KMT1, a termite on Bukhan Mountain, Seoul, Korea. In E. miricola strain BM10, β-glucosidase genes expressed at 10℃ were identified, and the psychrophilic enzymatic characteristic was confirmed by heterogeneously expressed proteins. Crude β-glucosidase in the culture broth of E. miricola strain BM10 showed specific enzymatic properties, and its substrate affinity was 4.69 times higher than that of Cellic CTec2. Among the genes proposed as β-glucosidase, two genes, bglB_1 and bglA_2, whose gene expression was more than doubled at 10℃ than at 30℃, were identified. They were heterogeneously expressed in Escherichia coli and identified as psychrophilic enzymes with an optimal reaction temperature of about 20℃-25℃. In this study, E. miricola strain BM10, a symbiotic bacterium of lower termites, produced psychrophilic β-glucosidases that contribute to the spread of the low-temperature habitat of a lower termite, R. speratus KMT1.

상온조건($25^{\circ}C$)에서 하수슬러지처리를 위한 생물전기화학 혐기성소화조의 성능에 미치는 제2철 이온($Fe^{+3}$)의 영향을 연구하였다. 생물전기화학 혐기성소화조를 상온에서 운전하였을 때 pH, 알카리도, COD 및 VFAs 등의 상태변수들은 안정하였으며, VS 제거율과 비메탄발생율은 각각 65.9% 및 370 mL/L/d이었다. 생물전기화학 혐기성소화조에 제2철 이온(200 ppm)을 주입한 후 상태변수들의 안정도는 더욱 향상되었으며, VS 제거율 및 비메탄발생량은 각각 69.8%, 396 mL/L/d로 증가하였다. 그러나, 제2철 이온을 주입 이후에 바이오가스의 메탄함량은 76.6%로 주입 이전의 77.3%에서 비하여 약간 감소하였다. 부유슬러지의 미생물 군집을 변화를 분석한 결과 공생 혐기성미생물(Cloacamonas) 및 가수분해균(Saprospiraceae, Ottowia pentelensis) 등의 우점균의 비율이 제2철 이온의 주입으로 증가하였다. 이것은 철이온의 주입으로 부유혐기성미생물(planktonic anaerobic bacteria, PAB)의 활성이 증가하였음을 나타낸다. 제2철 이온은 상온조건에서 하수슬러지처리를 위한생물전기화학 혐기성소화조의 성능을 향상시킨다.

BACKGROUND: Hydrothermal carbonization reaction is the thermo-chemical energy conversion technology for producing the solid fuel of high carbon density from organic wastes. The hydrothermal carbonization reaction is accompanied by the thermal hydrolysis reaction which converse particulate organic matters to soluble forms (hydro-thermal hydrolysate). Recently, hydrothermal carbonization is adopted as a pre-treatment technology to improve anaerobic digestion efficiency. This research was carried out to assess the effects of hydro-thermal reaction temperature on the methane potential and anaerobic biodegradability in the thermal hydrolysate of organic sludge generating from the wastewater treatment plant of poultry slaughterhouse .METHODS AND RESULTS: Wastewater treatment sludge cake of poultry slaughterhouse was treated in the different hydro-thermal reaction temperature of 170, 180, 190, 200, and 220℃. Theoretical and experimental methane potential for each hydro-thermal hydrolysate were measured. Then, the organic substance fractions of hydro-thermal hydrolysate were characterized by the optimization of the parallel first order kinetics model. The increase of hydro-thermal reaction temperature from 170℃ to 220℃ caused the enhancement of hydrolysis efficiency. And the methane potential showed the maximum value of 0.381 Nm³ kg^-1-VS_added in the hydro-thermal reaction temperature of 190℃. Biodegradable volatile solid(VSB) content have accounted for 66.41% in 170℃, 72.70% in 180℃, 79.78% in 190℃, 67.05% in 200℃, and 70.31% in 220℃, respectively. The persistent VS content increased with hydro-thermal reaction temperature, which occupied 0.18% for 170℃, 2.96% for 180℃, 6.32% for 190℃, 17.52% for 200℃, and 20.55% for 220℃.CONCLUSION: Biodegradable volatile solid showed the highest amount in the hydro-thermal reaction temperature of 190℃, and then, the optimum hydro-thermal reaction temperature for organic sludge was assessed as 190℃ in the aspect of the methane production. The rise of hydro-thermal reaction temperature caused increase of persistent organic matter content.

This study investigated the effects of cooking methods on the digestibility of lipids and formation of cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) in pork, during in vitro human digestion. Pork patties were cooked using four different methods (oven cooking, pan frying, boiling, and microwaving), to an internal temperature of approximately $85^{\circ}C$. The digestibility of pork patties were then evaluated, using the in vitro human digestion model that simulated the composition (pH, minerals, surfaceactive components, and enzymes) of digestive juices in the human mouth, stomach, and small intestine. The total lipid digestibility was higher after microwave cooking, whereas pan-frying resulted in lower in vitro digestibility, compared to the other cooking methods. The microwaving method followed by in vitro digestion also showed significantly higher content of free fatty acids and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), compared to the other cooking methods; whereas, the pan frying and boiling methods showed the lowest. Cholesterol content was not significantly different among the cooked samples before, and after in vitro human digestion. The formation of COPs was significantly higher in the microwave-treated pork samples, compared to those cooked by the other methods, which was consistent with the trend for lipid peroxidation (TBARS). We propose that from the point of view of COPs formation and lipid oxidation, the pan-frying or boiling methods would be useful.

혐기성 소화효율의 극대화를 위해 온도상분리 공정과 혐기성 회분식 공정을 음식물 쓰레기와 하수슬러지의 혼합기질에 적용한 온도상분리 혐기성 회분식 소화공정(TPAD-ASBR)의 거동 특성을 유기물부하의 변화에 따라 평가하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. TPAD-ASBR 과 대조구의 첫 단에서 대부분의 메탄생성과 유기물 제거가 이루어졌으며, 단위부피당 메탄발생량은 유기물부하 2.7 g VS/L/d에서 각각 0.79와 0.59L $CH_4/L/d$ 였다. 동일 부하에서 TPAD-ASBR의 유기물 제거효율은 61%이었으며 40%의 효율을 보인 대조구에 비해 고온조를 도입한 본 공정의 우수성을 확인하였다. 국내 하수슬러지는 상대적으로 낮은 VS 농도(1.5%, w/w)와 낮은 생분해 효율을 보이는데, 이러한 부정적 특성을 보완하기 위하여 투입된 음식물쓰레기에 의한 기질 특성의 효과적인 개선으로 인해 높은 유기물 감량과 메탄회수가 가능하였다. 또한, track study를 통해 연속회분식 운전방식에 의한 settling 단계의 도입으로 SRT를 HRT보다 길게 유지하여 미처리 입자와 active biomass의 효율적이고 지속적인 접촉을 도모하여 보다 높은 안정화효율 획득이 가능한 것으로 사료된다. 따라서, 혐기성소화공정에 TPAD-ASBR공정과 함께 음식물쓰레기와의 혼합소화를 도입하는 것은 처분이 까다로운 두 가지의 폐기물을 고효율로 처리함과 동시에 효율적인 에너지회수가 가능하여 경제적 운전이 가능하였다.

본 연구에서는, 탈수슬러지 및 음식물류폐기물의 효율적인 병합혐기성소화를 위해 폐기물의 혐기성소화 가능성 및 열화학적 전처리 방법에 대해 평가하였다. 폐기물의 혐기성소화 가능성 평가 결과, 음식물류폐기물이 탈수슬러지에 비해 혐기성미생물에 의해 분해 가능한 유기물 농도 및 methane yield가 각각 2.2배, 1.3배 더 높게 평가되었다. 바이오가스 발생량의 증대를 위해서는, 음식물류폐기물의 혼합비율을 증가시키는 것이 필요할 것으로 판단되었으며, 열화학적 전처리 효율은 반응온도, NaOH 주입량, 반응시간, 혼합비율 조건에 대해 평가하였다. 전처리 효율 및 탈수능을 통해 평가한 결과, 최적 열화학적 가용화 전처리 조건은 반응온도 140℃, NaOH 주입량 60 meq/L, 반응시간 60 min, 혼합비율 1:5로 평가되었다. 최적 열화학적 가용화 전처리 조건 적용 전과 후의 methane yield를 비교한 결과, 전처리를 적용한 경우에서, 가스발생속도 및 methane yield가 각각 1.6, 1.5배 증가하였다. 따라서, 탈수슬러지 및 음식물류폐기물의 효율적인 병합혐기성소화를 위해서는 음식물류폐기물의 혼합비율을 증가시키며, 폐기물의 전처리를 통해 가용화 효율을 증대시키는 것이 필요하다고 판단된다.

This paper describes design, fabrication, and application of the silicon based temperature controllable micro reactor. In order to achieve fast temperature variation and low energy consumption, reaction chamber of the micro reactor was thermally isolated by etching the highly conductive silicon around the reaction chamber. Compared with the model not having thermally isolated structure, the thermally isolated micro reactor showed enhanced thermal performances such as fast temperature variation and low energy consumption. The performance enhancements of the micro reactor due to etched holes were verified by thermal experiment and numerical analysis. Regarding to 42 percents reduction of the thermal mass achieved by the etched holes, approximately 4 times faster thermal variation and 5 times smaller energy consumption were acquired. The total size of the fabricated micro reactor was $37{\times}30{\times}1mm^{3}$. Microchannel and reaction chamber were formed on the silicon substrate. The openings of channel and chamber were covered by the glass substrate. The Pt electrodes for heater and sensor are fabricated on the backside of silicon substrate below the reaction chamber. The dimension of channel cross section was $200{\times}100{\mu}m^{2}$. The volume of reaction chamber was $4{\mu}l$. The temperature of the micro reactor was controlled and measured simultaneously with NI DAQ PCI-MIO-16E-l board and LabVIEW program. Finally, the fabricated micro reactor and the temperature control system were applied to the thermal denaturation and the trypsin digestion of protein. BSA(bovine serum albumin) was chosen for the test sample. It was successfully shown that BSA was successfully denatured at $75^{\circ}C$ for 1 min and digested by trypsin at $37^{\circ}C$ for 10 min.
