We perform lacquer formation experiments with various combinations of marine fuel oils and lubricant oils. We also investigate the influences of base number (BN) in lubricant oil and sulfur content in fuel oil. A dissolution test with 10% dilute sulfuric acid and pull-off force test are accomplished to distinguish whether the residual layers are lacquering or not. The lacquering layers are dissolved by dilute sulfuric acid and have a strong pull-off force. Moreover, the calcium content detected in the residual layers is compared by energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). More calcium is detected in the lacquer layers than in other residual layers. Distillate fuels containing low sulfur levels are more prone to lacquering when mixed with lubricant oil with a high BN. On the other hand, residual fuels with a high sulfur content do not form lacquer. We investigate the effect of mixture volume ratio. The mixture with higher fuel oil content is more prone to generate lacquer. These experiments indicate that a lubricant with an appropriate BN should be used to prevent lacquer forming on the surfaces such as cylinder liners depending on the sulfur content of fuel oil.

Biological conversion of biomass into fuels and chemicals requires hydrolysis of the polysaccharide fraction into monomeric sugars. Hydrolysis can be performed enzymatically, and with dilute or concentrate mineral acids. In this study, dilute sulfuric acid used as a catalyst for the hydrolysis of rapeseed straw. The purpose of this study is to optimize the hydrolysis process in a 15ml bomb tube reactor and investigate the effects of the acid concentration, temperature and reaction time on the hemicellulose removal and consequently on the production of sugars (xylose, glucose and arabinose) as well as on the formation of by-products (furfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and acetic acid). Statistical analysis was based on a model composition corresponding to a $3^3$ orthogonal factorial design and employed the response surface methodology (RSM) to optimize the hydrolysis conditions, aiming to attain maximum xylose extraction from hemicellulose of rapeseed straw. The obtained optimum conditions were: acid concentration of 0.77%, temperature of $164^{\circ}C$ with a reaction time of 18min. Under these conditions, 75.94% of the total xylose was removed and the hydrolysate contained 0.65g $L^{-1}$ Glucose, 0.36g $L^{-1}$ Arabinose, 3.59g $L^{-1}$ Xylose, 0.51g $L^{-1}$ Furfural, 1.36g $L^{-1}$ Acetic acid, and 0.08g $L^{-1}$ 5-hydroxymethylfurfural.

희석 황산용액을 사용해 볏짚을 전처리했는데 반응조건은 2개의 반응온도(140, $150^{\circ}C$)와 5개의 황산농도($1.0{\sim}3.0 %wt$)를 사용했다. 볏짚을 구성하는 주요성분인 glucose, xylose, galactose와 arabinose의 생성과 분해속도를 조사했는데 생성속도는 arabinose, 분해속도는 xylose가 가장 컸다. 헤미셀룰로오스당 (xylose+galactose+arabinose)의 최고수율은 약 80%이었는데 최고수율에 도달하는데 산 농도가 높은 것은 유리하지만 반응온도가 높은 것은 불리하게 나타났다. 최적조건은 $140^{\circ}C$, 2.5%와 20분이었다. 최고 glucose 수율은 반응조건에 관계없이 거의 같았는데 대략 $16{\sim}18%$ 범위였다.

In NaCl solutions acidified with $H_2SO_4$, Fe20Cr1.1N alloy showed enhanced pitting corrosion resistance than Fe20Cr alloy. An XPS analysis revealed that the passive film of Fe20Cr1.1N alloy contained higher cationfraction of Cr than that of Fe20Cr alloy, and nitrogen was incorporated into the film. In addition, it was found that the passive film of Fe20Cr1.1N alloy was thinner and had higher oxygen vacancy density than that of Fe20Cr alloy. Based on these observations, it was concluded that the chemical composition was the determining factor for the protectiveness of the passive film of Fe20Cr based alloy in dilute $H_2SO_4$ solution.

Certain microalgae have been known to use light and various carbon sources to produce carbohydrates, mainly in the form of starch. This is one of the pertinent feedstocks replacing agricultural products for the production of bioethanol by yeast. This study focuses upon dilute acid hydrothermal pretreatments at low cost and high efficiency to compete with current methods, and employs Chlamydomonas reinhardtii UTEX 90 as the feedstock. With dry cells of 5%(w/v), the algal biomass was pretreated with sulfuric acid(1-5%) under temperatures from 100 to $120^{\circ}C$, from 15 to 120 min. As a result, the glucose release from the biomass was maximum at 58%(w/w) after pretreatment with 3% sulfuric acid at $110^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. This method enabled not only starch, but also the hydrolysis of other oligosaccharides in the algal cell in high efficiency. Arrhenius-type of model equation enabled extrapolation of some yields of glucose beyond this range. The pretreated slurry was fermented by yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C, resulting in an ethanol yield of 29.2% from algal biomass. This study suggests that the pretreated algal biomass is a suitable feedstock for ethanol production and can have a positive impact on large-scale applied systems.

비식량 농업부산물인 왕겨로부터 에탄올 생산을 위한 효율적인 바이오매스 전처리 방법을 탐색하였다. 고온 고압 조건의 회분식 반응기에서 알칼리 용매는 암모니아와 가성소다, 산 용매는 희황산을 사용하였다. 가성소다 용액 처리 후 희황산 용액으로 복합처리한 시료의 효소 당화효율이 82.8%로 가장 높게 나타났고 이때 약 94.7%의 회분 성분 제거율을 보였다. 전처리 왕겨 시료의 효소 당화효율과 회분 성분 제거율 추세가 거의 비슷하게 나타나 왕겨의 효소당화 최대 저해요인이 회분(규산염) 성분임을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 규산염 함량이 높은 바이오매스는 고온 고압 조건하에서 가성소다-희황산 복합 처리법을 적용하는 것이 효소 당화효율 증진에 매우 유리함을 확인하였다.

Pre-pulping extracts were found to contain a dilute amount of xylo-oligosaccharides and acetic acid as the major components, and many minor components including other organic acids, lignin-derived phenolics, and sugar degradation products. Once separated from the pulp, a secondary hydrolysis step was required to hydrolyze oligomeric hemicellulose sugars into monomeric sugars before fermentation. The following study detailed the extent of hemicellulose recovery by pre-pulping using hot water extraction and characterized the hydrolysis of the extract with respect to comparing acid and enzymatic hydrolysis. The secondaryhydrolysis of hot water extracts made at an H-Factor of 800 was tested for a variety of acid and enzyme loading levels using the sulfuric acid and xylanases. The maximum fermentable sugar yield from acid and enzyme hydrolysis of the extract was 18.7 g/${\ell}$ and 17.7 g/${\ell}$ representing 84.6% and 80.1% of the maximum possible yield, respectively.

In this study, dilute acid pretreatment of $Liriodendron$ $tulipifera$ was performed for enzymatic hydrolysis. As the pretreatment temperature was increased, enzymatic hydrolysis and enzyme adsorption yield also increased. The highest enzymatic hydrolysis yield was 57% (g/g) and enzyme adsorption was 44% (g/g). Enzymatic hydrolysis yield was determined with weight loss of pretreated biomass by enzyme, and enzyme adsorption was a percentage of enzyme weight attaching on pretreated biomass compared with input enzyme weight. When $L.$ $tulipifera$ was pretreated with 1% sulfuric acid at $160^{\circ}C$ for 5 min., hemicellulose was significantly removed in pretreatment, but the lignin contents were constant. Other changes in surface morphology were detected on biomass pretreated at $160^{\circ}C$ by a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). A large number of spherical shapes known as lignin droplets were observed over the entire biomass surface after pretreatment. Hemicellulose removal and morphological changes improved enzyme accessibility to cellulose by increasing cellulose exposure to enzyme. It is thus evidence that enzyme adsorption is a significant factor to understand pretreatment effectiveness.

초산은 묽은 산에 의해 처리되어 얻어진 헤미셀룰로오스 가수분해액 중 가장 양이 많을 뿐만 아니라 중대한 에탄올 발효 저해물질이다. 그 가수분해액으로부터 초산을 선택적으로 제거하는데 최적인 분리시스템을 찾기 위하여 모사 헤미셀룰로오스 가수분해액으로 자일로스, 초산과 황산의 혼합물이 선택되었다. 이러한 목적을 이루기 위해 에멀젼형 액막법이 모사 헤미셀룰로오스 가수분해액으로부터 초산을 제거하는데 적용되었다. W/O 에멀젼의 주요 구성 성분들, 즉 아민계 추출제 종류, 계면활성제 조성, 첨가제 종류와 회수제의 종류 및 농도가 모사 헤미셀룰로오스 가수분해액에 있는 초산, 자일로스와 황산의 추출에 미치는 영향이 조사되었다. 특별한 실험 조건에서, 초산의 추출율은 95% 이상이었고, 자일로스의 손실은 미미하였는데, 이것은 현 에멀젼형 액막법이 경제성이 높은 공정이 될 수 있다는 것을 의미한다.

과염소산, 염산 그리고 황산의 농도 변화에 따른 우라늄과 바나듐 이온의 음이온수지에 대한 용리곡선으로부터 이들 이온의 화학종의 변화와 평형관계를 음이온교환크로마토그래피법으로 연구하였다. 우라늄은 $0.01\;{\sim}\;0.5M$ 과염소산용액에서는 $UO_2^{2+}$의 화학종으로만 존재하며 염산용액에서는 0.5M 까지는 $UO_2^{2+}$ 상태로 존재하나 염산의 농도가 증가함에 따라 여러가지 $Cl^-$의 착물이 형성되는 용리현상을 보였고 황산용액에서는 묽은 황산의 농도에서 우라늄이 상당히 늦게 용리되어 나오는 것으로 보아 $SO_4$=과의 $UO_2(SO_4)_2$= 같은 음이온성 착물이 생성되는 것 같다. 바나듐은 $0.01\;{\sim}\;0.5M$ 과염소산용액에서 바나듐의 용리현상으로부터 $H_2V_{10}O_{28}^{4-}$과 $VO_2^+$간에 다음과 같은 평형이 존재함을 알았다. $H_2V_{10}O_{28}^{4-} + 14H^+ = 10VO_2^+ + 8H_2O$ 염산 및 황산용액에서도 이런 농도범위에서는 위와같은 평형이 존재하나 $VO_2$+과 $Cl^-$ 및 $SO_4^{2-}간의 착이온이 형성되는 것 같다. 위 식의 평형상수값은 $1.9{\times}108$이었다.
