S. platensis의 옥외연속 대량배양을 위해 125P 배양조를 설계, 제작하여 배양조건에 따른 생육 변수를 검토하였다. 0.30(1/day)의 비생육 속도와 1.69(g/$\ell$) 의 최대 세포농도가 회분배양에셔 얻어졌 으며 유가삭 배양에셔 비생육 속도와 최대 세포농도 는 각각 0.22(1/day)와 1.75(g/$\ell$) 였다. 연속 배양 에서 얻어진 상.하층 배양조의 최대 균처l생산생은 각각 0.44와 0.43(g/$\ell/day$) 였다. 따라서 인위적으로 온도, 광도 등의 생육조건을 고려하여 S. platensis를 연속 배양할 경우 경제성이 클 것으로 사려된다. 아울라 top-driven stirrer와 air sparging 장치를 이용하여 교반 효과를 비교한 결과 top­d driven stirrer를 이용한 배양조의 균채 생산성이 다소 높은 갯으로 냐타났다.

A series of experiments were carried out with three native strains of microalgae to measure growth rates, biomass, and lipid productivities. Scenedesmus sp. IMMTCC-6 had better biomass growth rate and higher lipid production. The growth, lipid accumulation, and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) consumption rate of Scenedesmus sp. IMMTCC-6 were tested under different NaOH concentrations in modified BBM. The algal strain showed the maximum specific growth rate (0.474/day), biomass productivity (110.9 mg $l^{-1}d^{-1}$), and $CO_2$ consumption rate (208.4 mg $l^{-1}d^{-1}$) with an NaOH concentration of 0.005 M on the $8^{th}$ day of cultivation. These values were 2.03-, 6.89-, and 6.88-fold more than the algal cultures grown in control conditions (having no NaOH and $CO_2$). The $CO_2$ fixing efficiency of the microalga with other alternative carbon sources like $Na_2CO_3$ and $NaHCO_3$ was also investigated and compared. The optimized experimental parameters at shake-flask scale were implemented for scaling up the process in a self-engineered photobioreactor. A significant increase in lipid accumulation (14.23% to 31.74%) by the algal strain from the logarithmic to stationary phases was obtained. The algal lipids were mainly composed of $C_{16}/C_{18}$ fatty acids, and are desirable for biodiesel production. The study suggests that microalga Scenedesmus sp. IMMTCC-6 is an efficient strain for biodiesel production and $CO_2$ biofixation using stripping solution of NaOH in a cyclic process.

Batch test methods have developed for a long time to measure kinetic and stoichiometric parameters which are required to perform steady state design and mathematical modelling of activated sludge processes. However, at various So/Xo ratios, abnormal behaviors of ordinary heterotrophic organism in batch tests have been reported in many researches. Thus, in this research, abnormal behaviors of heterotrophs in batch tests were investigated at various So/Xo conditions by measuring and interpreting oxygen utilization rate. As So/Xo ratio increased, the calculated values of maximum specific growth rates, ${\mu}_{H,max}$ and $K_{MP,max}$, increased. However, at a certain point of So/Xo (around 10mgCOD/mgMLAVSS), ${\mu}_{H,max}$ and $K_{MP,max}$ values started to decrease. According to this observation, three prominent behaviours of heterotrophs were identified at various So/Xo conditions. (1) At low So/Xo region (below 5 mgCOD/mgMLAVSS), the oxygen utilization rate of heterotrophs in batch tests were almost stable and consequently yielded lower maximum specific growth rate. (2) At high So/Xo region (up to 5~10 mgCOD/mgMLAVSS), oxygen utilization rate incresed sharply with time and indicated more upward curvature than the predicted OUR with conventional activated sludge model, which consists of single hetetrotrophs group. Thus, in this region, competition model of two organisms, fast-grower and slow-grower, seemed to be appropriate. (3) At extremely high So/Xo region (over 10mgCOD/mgMLAVSS), significant oxygen utilization rate was still observed even after depletion of readily biodegradable COD. This might be caused by retarded utilization of intermediates which were generated by self inhibition mechanism in the process of RBCOD uptake.

배양환경이 효모 RNA 축적과 autolysis 효율에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 연속배양을 실시하였다. Dilution rate의 증가에 따라 균체내의 RNA 함량은 증가하여 dilution rate=0.35 $h^{-1}$에서 14.8%를 나타내었고, 더불어 RNA productivity와 specific RNA productivity도 증가하였다. 고정된 D=0.2 $h^{-1}$에서 최적 균체량은 배양온도 $30^{\circ}C$ 에서 얻어졌으나, RNA 함량은 배양온도가 낮아질수록 높은 값을 보여 $24^{\circ}C$에서 12.7%로 나타났다. 한편, autolysis 효율 측면에서 균체 생육속도가 증가할수록 효모 extract의 추출율은 감소하였고, 효모 extract의 분해율은 증가하는 경향을 보였으나, 배양온도는 효모 autolysis 효율에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Microalgae are considered as superior biodiesel producers, because they could effectively produce high amount of lipid with fast growth rate. In this study, Chlorella vulgaris was exposed to various light wavelengths (${\lambda}_{max}$ 470 nm, ${\lambda}_{max}$ 525 nm, and ${\lambda}_{max}$ 660 nm) using light emitting diodes (LEDs) to examine effect of light quality on their growth and fatty acid production in 0.4-L bubble column photobioreactors. Fluorescent lamps were also used as polychromatic light sources (control). From the results, biomass productivity was varied by light wavelength from 0.05 g/L/day to 0.30 g/L/day. Maximum biomass productivity was obtained from red LED among tested ones. We also observed that contents of oleic acid and linolenic acid, which affect biodiesel properties, were significantly changed depending on supplied wavelength. These results indicated that production of algal biomass, and fatty acid content and productivity could be improved or controlled by supplying specific light wavelength.

생물학적 폐수처리장의 효율을 정확하게 예측하기 위해서는 생물학적 동력학 계수와 화학양론적 계수를 반드시 추정하여야만 한다. 본 연구에서는 생물학적 동력학 계수를 추정하는 실험적 방법과 그 이론적 배경이 논의되었다. 또한 생물학적 동력학 계수 추정을 위해 신소이용률(Oxygen Uptake Rate, OUR)을 이용한 회분식 실험을 실시하였다. 호기성 상태에서 종속영양미생물과 독립영양미생물의 생물학적 동력학 계수를 추정하기 위한 간단한 방법이 기술되어 있다. 생물학적 동력학 계수 추정시 해석상의 부정확성 때문에 COD와 VSS농도를 이용하지 않고 산소이용률을 미생물 성장 자료로 변환하여 사용하였다. 종속영양미생물의 최대비성장율, 생산계수, 반속도상수, 사멸율을 산소이용률을 사용하여 추정하였다. 또한 독립영양미생물의 최대비성장율은 $NO_3{^-}$ 농도의 증가율로부터 추정하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 회분식 반응조에서 산소이용률을 이용해 종속영양미생물과 독립영양미생물의 생물학적 동력학 계수를 정확하고 간편하게 추정하는데 있다. 이러한 산소이용률을 이용한 생물학적 동력학 계수 추정 방법이 복잡한 활성슬러지 모델링에 도움을 줄 것으로 판단된다.

Production of extracellular polysaccharide by Monilinia fructigena in B-I medium containing cereals was higher than that in glucose medium. Productivities in B-I medium and glucose medium were 0.7g/l nd 0.2-03g/l respectively. The maximum content of polysaccharide occurred at the rising point from the lowest pH of culture. As the apparent viscosity of the polysaccharide solution increased, the flow Index (m) decreased, and the consistency Index (Kc) also increased. The polysaccharide solution was a typical pseudoplastic fluid. The mycelium was separated from the culture solution by $300\mu m$ mesh-filter and the polysaccharide was precipitated by adding 50% of ethanol (v/v). The amount of the polysaccharide removed from the filtrated solution was 0.45 g/l and the amount adhered to the mycelium was 0.25g/l. In experiments for investigating growth enhancement of rotifer (Brachionus plicatilis) by the polysaccharide, the dose of the polysaccharide was 1mg per 10,000 organisms of rotifer. Maximum specific growth rate of rotifer with feed consisting of sea Chlorella sp. and the polysaccharide was 1.095/day in the batch culture for 10 days. A semi-continuous culture was done for 30 days, the biomass of rotifer could be harvested twice. Maximum specific growth rate with sea Chlorella sp. and the polysaccharide was 0.734/day before the first harvest, and 1.685/day before the second harvest. Productivity was 38 $cells/ml\; \cdot\; day$ with sea Chlorella sp. and the polysaccharide.

To yield high concentrations of protein expressed by genetically modified Escherichia coli, it is important that the bacterial strains are cultivated to high cell density in industrial bioprocesses. Since the expressed target protein is mostly accumulated inside the E. coli cells, the cellular product formation can be directly correlated to the bacterial biomass concentration. The typical way to determine this concentration is to sample offline. Such manual sampling, however, wastes time and is not efficient for acquiring direct feedback to control a fedbatch fermentation. An E. coli K12-derived strain was cultivated to high cell density in a pressurized stirred bioreactor on a pilot scale, by detecting biomass concentration online using a capacitance probe. This E. coli strain was grown in pure minimal medium using two carbon sources (glucose and glycerol). By applying exponential feeding profiles corresponding to a constant specific growth rate, the E. coli culture grew under carbon-limited conditions to minimize overflow metabolites. A high linearity was found between capacitance and biomass concentration, whereby up to 85 g/L dry cell weight was measured. To validate the viability of the culture, the oxygen transfer rate (OTR) was determined online, yielding maximum values of 0.69 mol/l/h and 0.98mol/l/h by using glucose and glycerol as carbon sources, respectively. Consequently, online monitoring of biomass using a capacitance probe provides direct and fast information about the viable E. coli biomass generated under aerobic fermentation conditions at elevated headspace pressures.
