Studies of the pretreatment of chitin and its subsequent hydrolysis by Aspergillus carneus chitinase are reported. Ball milling was found to be the most effective way among the pretreatment methods tested. Data are presented describing the effect of enzyme and substrate concentrations on the rate and extent of the hydrolysis process. It was found that the successive addition of enzyme improved the saccharification yield. Significant product inhibition of the chitinase was observed when N-acetylglucosamine concentration was 3.6％ or higher. Adsorption of enzymes to the substrate occurred during a 24 hr hydrolysis period. An initial rapid and extensive adsorption occurred, followed by gradual desorption which increased during the time of reaction. Intermediate removal of the hydrolyzate and continuation of the hydrolysis by adsorbed enzyme on the residual chitin was also investigated. A total of 75.4 g/l reducing sugars, corresponding to 69.2％ saccharificaton yield (as N-acetylglucosamine) was obtained. In addition an increase in the amount of recoverable enzymes was observed under these conditions. Evidence presented here suggests that the technique, whereby the free enzymes in the recovered hydrolyzate are re-adsorbed onto the new substrate, may provide a means of recirculating the dissolved enzymes.

Waste paper stands for the major biodegradable organic fraction of most of municipal solid waste. The potential of waste paper for glucose production was investigated in this current work. The pretreatment was accomplished by first subjecting waste paper to disintegration time (30 s), followed by ink removal of disintegrated waste paper using an deinking agent. Concentrated acid hydrolysis of waste paper with sulfuric acid was optimized to maximize glucose conversion. The concentrated acid hydrolysis conditions for waste paper (disintegrated time: 30 s, deinking agent loading : 15 ml) were optimized by using central composite design and response surface methodology. The optimization process employed a central composite design, where the investigated variables were acid concentration (60~80%), loading sulfuric acid (1~5 ml) and reaction time (1~5 h). All the tested variables were identified to have significant effects (p < 0.05) on glucose conversion. The optimum concentrated acid hydrolysis conditions were acid concentration of 70.8%, loading sulfuric acid of 3.2 ml and a reaction time of 3.6 h. This research of concentrated acid hydrolysis was a promising method to improve glucose conversion for waste paper.

목질계 바이오매스를 이용하여 효소를 사용하지 않고 발효당을 얻기 위해 황산을 이용한 당화를 수행하였다. 바이오매스로는 pinus rigida와 palm농업 부산물인 EFB를 사용하였다. 산을 이용한 당화에서는 당의 과분해 생성물을 줄이기 위한 당화조건을 생각해 보아야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 목질계 바이오매스를 이용한 2단 산당화를 수행하였다. 산을 이용한 1차 가수분해에서는 72 wt%의 황산을 이용하여 $80^{\circ}C$에서 반응시켰을 경우 가장 높은 당화율을 보였고 pinus rigida와 EFB 각각 11.49 wt%, 32 wt%의 당화율을 보였다. 이후 1차 가수분해에서 얻은 액상을 9~15 wt%의 산농도가 되도록 묽혀 $50{\sim}120^{\circ}C$의 온도로 2차 가수분해를 진행했다. 2차 가수분해시 9%의 황산농도와 $120^{\circ}C$의 온도조건에서 80분간 반응시켰을 때 최종 글루코오스 당화율은 pinus rigida의 경우 86.8 wt.% (39 g/L), EFB의 경우 95.3 wt%(32.4 g/L)를 얻을 수 있었다. 각 단계에서 분석된 결과는 물질수지를 통해 확인하고 당화 효율을 비교해 보았다.

Proton-NMR spectroscopic method was applied to kinetic study of concentrated sulfuric acid hydrolysis reaction, especially focused on 2nd step of acid hydrolysis with deferent reaction time and temperature as main variables. Commercial xylan extracted from beech wood was used as model compound. In concentrated acid hydrolysis, xylan was converted to xylose, which is unstable in 2nd hydrolysis condition, which decomposed to furfural or other reaction products. Without neutralization steps, proton-NMR spectroscopic analysis method was valid for analysis of not only monosaccharide (xylose) but also other reaction products (furfural and formic acid) in acid hydrolyzates from concentrated acid hydrolysis of xylan, which was the main advantages of this analytical method. Higher temperature and longer reaction time at 2nd step acid hydrolysis led to less xylose concentration in xylan acid hydrolyzate, especially at $120^{\circ}C$ and 120 min, which meant hydrolyzed xylose was converted to furfural or other reaction products. Loss of xylose was not match with furfural formation, which meant part of furfural was degraded to other undetected compounds. Formation of formic acid was unexpected from acidic dehydration of pentose, which might come from the glucuronic acid at the side chain of xylan.

The use of ion exchange resins to remove ionic impurities from solution is prevalent in industrial process systems, including in the primary heat transport system (PHTS) purification circuit of nuclear power plants. Despite its extensive use in the nuclear industry, our general understanding of ion exchange cannot fully explain the complex chemistry in ion exchange beds, particularly when operated at or near their saturation limit. This work investigates the behaviour of mixed-bed ion exchange resin, saturated with species representative of corrosion products in a CANDU (Canadian Deuterium Uranium) reactor PHTS, particularly with respect to iron chemistry in the resin bed and the removal of lithium ions from solution. Experiments were performed under deaerated conditions, analogous to normal PHTS operation. The results show interesting iron chemistry, suggesting the hydrolysis of cation resin bound ferrous species and the subsequent formation of either a solid hydrolysis product or the soluble, anionic Fe(OH)₃^-.

The effects of initial solid concentration and microwave irradiation (MWI) time on the hydrolysis of waste activated sludge (WAS) were investigated. MWI time strongly influenced WAS hydrolysis for all initial solid concentrations of 8.20, 31.51, and 52.88 g VSS/L. For all WAS, the volatile suspended solids (VSS) solubilization degree ranged from 35.6% to 38.4% during a total MWI time of 10 min. Soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) concentration increased at a rate proportional to the decrease of VSS during the MWI. However, the clearly different VSS solubilization patterns that were observed during the MWI were explained by the 2-step hydrolysis of WAS, consisting of the initial disintegration of the easily degradable part of the sludge, followed by the subsequent disintegration of the hardly degradable part of the sludge. WAS hydrolysis rates for 3 to 6 min of MWI were significantly lower than those for less than 3 min, or more than 6 min. From these results, 3 min MWI time and WAS of 31.51 g VSS/L (centrifugal thickener WAS) showed the most efficient hydrolysis of WAS at 36.0%. The profiles of total nitrogen (T-N) concentrations corresponded well to the SCOD increases in terms of the empirical formula of bacterial cell mass ($C_5H_7O_2N$). The negligible T-N increase and pH decrease during WAS hydrolysis by MWI will allow the application of this process to subsequent biological processes, such as anaerobic digestion.

The preparation of bismuthsubnitrate for the purpose of medicine, with both crude and refined bismuth metals, has been performed by applying the following methods: (A) Neutralization process, (B) Hydrolysis process. On the basis of results of a series of experiments, the following conclusion was obtained: 1) The quantitative determination showed that there was little difference between these two processes, in their yields. However the process (B), hydrolysis method was technically more simple than (A), neutralization method, and purity of final product by process (B) was found to be much more superior to (A). 2) It was found that bismuthsubnitrate products obtained from refined bismuth metal was almost the same with imported ones (Fisher, Squibb, etc.) in their purities.

bacterial alkaline protease를 이 용한 corn glu ten meal의 효소가수분해시 pH, 온도, 효소대 기질의 질량비율 등에 따른 반응특성 및 반응의 적정화 를 꾀하였고, 효소의 deactivation여부에 초점을 맞추어 효소반응속도론적 방정식을 제안조사하였다. 그 결과,$50^{\circ}C$, pH 9~10에서 가장 높은 가수분해 도를 나타내었고 $e_0/s_o$가 높을수록 반응속도 빛 최종 가수분해도가 증가하였다. 최종가수분해도는 gluten meal전체질량기준으로 17~20%, gluten meal내의 단백질질량기준으로 25 ~ 28 % 였다. 반응후반에서의 반응속도감소의 주된 원인은 기 질소진 (substrate de pletion) 이며 이때 enzyme deactivation 및 product inhibition의 영향은 미미한 것으로 확인되었다. 효소 deactivation항을 무시하여 변형시킨 model equa-tlOn에 의해 이 효소반응에 해당하는 여러 kinetic parameter들의 값을 계산분석한 결과 product inhi bition효과가 미미함을 확인하였다. 변형된 kinetic equation과 실험적으로 얻은 가수분해 데이타는 거 의 완벽하게 일치하였다. 효소반응을 $100\times$scale­u up한 결과 가수분해 profile 및 가수분해도는 $1\times$ 와 비교시 거의 일치하였으므로 이 효소반응이 용이하 게 scale-up될 수 있음을 확인하였고, 아미노산분석 결과 가수분해액을 미생물발효기질용 질소원으로 사 용할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

A study on the hydrolysis of anchovy using proteolytic bacteria isolated from anchovy jeotkal (a salt-fermented fish) was carried out to develop a rapid process of liquefied anchovy jeotkal. Five kinds of proteolytic bacteria, such as Staphylococcus sp.-l, Photobacterium sp., Volcaniella sp., Staphylococcus sp.-2 and Bacillus sp., were isolated from the anchovy jeotka1 that fermented with $20\%$ NaCl at room temperature for 2 months. Those grew well at $40^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0 on TPY broth with $2.0\%$ NaCl. The optimal hydrolysis temperature, pH, time and proteolytic bacteria densities for hydrolysis of minced anchovy were$40^{\circ}C$, 7.0, 6 hours and $1.8\times10^8$ cells/g raw anchovy, respectively.
