This study investigated the nitrate formation process, and mass closure of Particulate Matter (PM) were calculated over the urbanized area of Jeju Island. The data for eight water-soluble inorganic ions and nineteen elements in PM_2.5 and PM₁₀ were used. The results show that the nitrate concentration increased as excess ammonium increased in ammonium-rich samples. Furthermore, nitrate formation was not as important in ammonium-poor samples as it was in previous studies. According to the sum of the measured species, approximately 45~53% of gravimetric mass of PM remained unidentified. To calculate the mass closure for both PM_2.5 and PM₁₀, PM chemical components were categorized into secondary inorganic aerosol, crustal matter, sea salt, trace matter and unidentified matter. The results by the mass reconstruction of PM components show that the portion of unidentified matter was decreased from 52.7% to 44.0% in PM_2.5 and from 45.1% to 29.1% in PM₁₀, despite the exclusion of organic matter and elemental carbon.

Objective: Previous studies isolated the thermophilic ammonium-tolerant (TAT) bacterium Bacillus sp. TAT105 that grew in composting swine manure with the assimilation of ammonium nitrogen and reduced ammonia emissions during composting. Those studies also investigated the potential for applications of TAT105 to composting. It was observed that the concentration of TAT bacteria, phylogenetically close to TAT105, increased during composting. The objectives of this study were to identify the phylogenetic placement of these TAT bacteria and investigate their distribution in various composts. Methods: The phylogenetic placement of TAT105 was examined based on the sequence of 16S ribosomal RNA gene. The genomic DNA homology between TAT105 and the type strains of bacterial species that were phylogenetically close to TAT105 were examined by DNA-DNA hybridization. Moreover, the tolerances of these strains to NH₄Cl and NaCl were analyzed using a cultivation method. Concentrations of TAT bacteria in various composts were evaluated using an agar medium specific to TAT bacteria and polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Results: TAT105 was most closely related to Bacillus thermolactis and Bacillus kokeshiiformis. Many variants of these species have been detected in various environments, including composts. The type strains of these species displayed TAT characteristics that were similar to those of TAT105. Among the composts examined in this study, TAT bacteria were detected at high concentrations (10⁵ to 10⁹ colony forming units per gram of dry matter) in most of the composts made from cattle manure, swine manure, bark, and excess sludge. Conclusion: TAT bacteria comprised B. thermolactis, B. kokeshiiformis, and their phylogenetically close relatives. They were considered to be adaptable to composting of some certain materials, and a favorable target for searching for strains with some useful function that could be applied to composting of these materials.

An efficient enzyme system for the synthesis of L-tyrosine was developed using a fed-batch reactor with continuous feeding of phenol, pyruvate, and ammonia. A thermo- and chemostable tyrosine phenol-lyase from Symbiobacterium toebii was employed as the biocatalyst in this work. The enzyme was produced using a constitutive expression system in Escherichia coli BL21, and prepared as a soluble extract by rapid clarification, involving treatment with 40% methanol in the presence of excess ammonium chloride. The stability of the enzyme was maintained for at least 18 h under the synthesis conditions, including 75 mM phenol at pH 8.5 and $40^{\circ}C$. The fed-batch system (working volume, 0.51) containing 1.0 kU of the enzyme preparation was continuously fed with two substrate preparations: one containing 2.2 M phenol and 2.4 M sodium pyruvate, and the other containing 0.4 mM pyridoxal-5-phosphate and 4M ammonium chloride (pH 8.5). The system produced 130g/I of L-tyrosine within 30h, mostly as precipitated particles, upon continuous feeding of the substrates for 22 h. The maximum conversion yield of L-tyrosine was 94% on the basis of the supplied phenol.

A simple and rapid spectrophotometric method has been developed to enable the determination of plutonium concentration in an irradiated fuel solution in the presence of all fission products. An excess of ceric ammonium nitrate solution was employed to oxidize all the valence states of plutonium to +6 oxidation state. Interference due to the presence of fission products such as ruthenium and zirconium, and corrosion products such as iron in the envisaged concentration range, as in the irradiated fuel solution, was studied in the determination of plutonium concentration by the direct spectrophotometric method. The stability of plutonium in +6 oxidation state was monitored under experimental conditions as a function of time. Results obtained are reproducible, and this method is applicable to radioactive samples resulting before the solvent extraction process during the reprocessing of fast reactor spent fuel. An analysis of the concentration of plutonium shows a relative standard deviation of <1.2% in standard as well as in simulated conditions. This reflects the fast reactor fuel composition with respect to uranium, plutonium, fission products such as ruthenium and zirconium, and corrosion products such as iron.

부영양화를 일으키는 대표적인 영양물질인 질소와 인을 제거하기 위하여 많은 연구들이 진행되어오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 질소와 인을 제거하기 위하여 해수 및 해수염에 존재하는 마그네슘과 칼슘을 사용하여 스트루바이트와 수산화인회석을 만들어 침전을 시켰다. 실험의 목적은 해수와 해수염을 사용하여 pH와 농도의 변화에 따른 영양염의 제거율을 비교평가 하였다. 하수의 실험조건에서 해수를 사용한 결과 인의 제거율은 90 %, 질소의 제거율은 50 %로 나타났다. 또한 pH 9, 질소와 인의 농도 10 mM, ${Mg/PO_4}^{3-}$, ${NH_4}^+$의 비율 2의 조건에서 해수염을 사용하여 실험한 결과 질소의 제거율은 90 %, 인의 제거율은 70 %로 나타났다. 상대적으로 인의 제거율이 높은 이유는 해수를 사용한 경우 질소와 인의 몰 농도의 차이에서 비롯되었으며, 해수염을 사용한 경우 해수에 포함된 칼슘이 인과 반응하여 수산화인회석으로 침전 제거되었다고 할 수 있다. 수중의 질소와 인을 제거를 위하여 해수와 해수염을 사용한 결과 높은 제거율을 나타내었다.

Cloisite 30B가 박리, 분산된 폴리에스테르형 디올을 제조하였다. 먼저, Cloisite 30B에 치환된 2-hydroxyethyl기를 가진 4급 암모늄염을 과량의 adipic acid와 혼합하여 $130^{\circ}C$에서 반응시켜, 에스테르기로 연결하고 양말단에 카르복실기를 가지는 ethyl-ester adipic acid 암모늄염으로 만들었다. 이 과정에서 Cloisite 30B의 실리케이트 층간 간격이 $18.4\;{\AA}$ ($2{\theta}=4.9^{\circ}$)에서 $58.3\;{\AA}$ ($2{\theta}=1.5^{\circ}$)보다 넓게 확장되었다. 층간 간격의 확장은 분자크기가 작은 adipic acid($d{\approx}3.0\;{\AA}$, $L{\approx}9.3\;{\AA}$)가 Cloisite 30B의 층간에서 Cloisite 30B의 2-hydroxyethyl기와 반응하여 분자크기가 커졌기 때문이다. Cloisite 30B가 박리/분산된 adipic acid를 과량의 diethylene glycol([COOH]/[OH]${\approx}0.6$)와 혼합하여 $140^{\circ}C$ 에서 반응시킴으로써 diol을 합성하였다. Acid value로 측정한 전환율은 94%였다. 합성한 diol은 수평균분자량이 830 g/mol, PDI가 1.2로, 평균중합도가 약 7.8인 polyester-diol 형태이다.

Various disorders cause hyperammonemia during childhood. Amongthem are those caused by inherited defects in urea synthesis and related metabolic pathways. These disorders can be grouped into two types: disorders of the enzymes that comprise the urea cycle, and disorders of the transporters or metabolites of theamino acids related to the urea cycle. Principal clinical features of these disorders are caused by elevated levels of blood ammonium. Additional disease-specific symptoms are related to the particular metabolic defect. These specific clinical manifestations are often due to an excess or lack of specific amino acids. Treatment of urea cycle disorders and related metabolic diseases consists of nutritional restriction of proteins, administration of specific amino acids, and use of alternative pathways for discarding excess nitrogen. Although combinations of these treatments are extensively employed, the prognosis of severe cases remains unsatisfactory. Liver transplantation is one alternative for which a better prognosis is reported.

본 연구에서는 금속을 담지한 alumina bead 촉매를 이용하여 ammonium dinitramide (ADN)기반 단일액상추진제 분해 성능 분석을 수행하였다. Alumina bead를 $1200^{\circ}C$에서 소성한 후, 회전 증발기를 이용하여 과량 용액 함침법 (Excess water impregnation)으로 alumina bead에 Pt 및 Cu 를 담지하였다. 자체 제작한 batch 반응기에서 ADN기반 단일액상추진제 분해 온도($T_{dec}$)를 측정하였다. Cu/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 Pt/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매에 비해 분해 온도가 더 낮게 나타났으며, $T_{dec}$ 는 약 $130^{\circ}C$이었다.
