Bunker-A oil-degrading microorganisms were isolated from a marine environment using an enrichment culture technique. The isolated strain EL-081K was identified as the genus Acinetobacter based on the results of morphological, culture, and biochemical tests. The optimal temperature and initial pH for bunker-A oil degradation were $25^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively, including aeration. The optimal medium composition for the degradation of bunker-A oil by Acinetobacter sp. EL_O81K was 10 ml/l bunker-A oil as the carbon source and 0.1% (NH$_4$)$_2$SO$_4$as the nitrogen source. Under the above conditions, the biodegradability of bunker-A oil was 38% after 96 hours of incubation. The addition of detergent did not increase the bunker-A oil degradation.

In this paper the criteria for insulating oil condition of pole transformer were suggested by applying the UV-Visible spectrophotometric method. Ageing of insulating oil caused the change in absorbances of oil os well os the deterioration of electrical properties of oil. By comparing the electrical properties such as $tan{\delta}$ and breakdown voltage with the UV-Visible absorbances of oil, criteria for absorbance values determining oil condition were established. This UV-Visible spectrophotometric method might be applied in ageing analysis of oil and be expected to replace the current method.

Aging of transformer insulating material in natural ester insulating oil is compared to that in conventional transformer oil. Aging of insulating paper and insulating oil have been studied by performing accelerated thermal aging test. Sealed aging test vessels containing cooper, laminated core, Kraft paper and insulating oil(natural oil or mineral oil) were aged at $140^{\circ}C$ for 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 hours. Insulating oils after aging are investigated with total acid number, breakdown voltage and viscosity. Also, degradation of insulating paper after aging is determined using breakdown voltage and mechanical strength. Accelerated aging studies demonstrate a slower aging rate for natural ester insulating oil compared to the rate for conventional mineral oil.

Recently, the researches on the prevention of marine oil pollution being strengthened. Sludge oils were unavoidably produced in ship's operations, therefore it is necessary to manage the sludge oils inside the ship itself with the view to prevent marine oil pollution from ship. The present study deals with the ultrasonic breaking systems that recycle the sludge oil from ships into usable oil to be burnt. At the first instanceexperimental studies were carried out to investigate the homogenizing effect of the marine oils and the erosion aspect of horn disc by repeated vibration of ultrasonic transducer. The erosion damages for horn disc SS41 steel with weight loss rate and the irradiation time to max. erosion rate were examined according to the variation of the transducer amplitude, the oil temperature and the immersing depth of horn disc. As the result of it, the erosion aspects of horn disk were varied with oil environments and testing time.

This study was undertaken to determine the effects of fish oil supplementation with low dose on the lipid content and fatty acid composition of breast milk. Among 18 lactating women who were exclusively breast-fed their babies, 6 were in control group and 12 were in fish lil groups. The subjects in fish oil groups were supplemented with 1.96g/d or 3.92g/d of fish oil for 2 weeks from 10 to 12 weeks of postpartum. All subjects consumed their usual diet at home. Breast milk samples were collected at the final day of experiment. By fish oil supplementation, the concentrations of triglyceride, cholesterol, free fatty acid and phospholipid as well as total lipid in breast milk tended to increase, but not significant. There was no dose-dependent response. The fatty acid composition of breast milk was not changed by fish oil supplementation. These results suggest that low dose of fish oil supplementation may increase of lipid content, but does not affect on the fatty acid composition of breast milk.

In order to evaluate the aging of mineral oil immersed distribution transformers, it gathered some insulation oil in over loaded and long time(exceed their service life, 13yrs.) aged transformers in the field, we measured moisture content, acid number, dielectric strength of the oil as defined in KS C 2101 standard. And also, it had been measured dielectric constant, specific resistant, $tan{\delta}$ on aged transformer oil at from $10^{\circ}C$ to $130^{\circ}C$. These results are compared with a new mineral oil. From this study, it can be considered that the analysis of mineral oil may be suitable for evaluation of life expectancy in distribution transformers

To determine the effects of anesthesia to clove oil on the secondary stress indices, changes in haematological and blood chemistry were monitored in healthy crucian carps (Carassius auratus). 24 fishes were divided into three groups, and blood was collected before anaesthesia (control group), immediately after anaesthesia at a concentration of 30 mg/l clove oil (anesthetized group), and 24 h after anaesthesia (recovered group). The anesthesia to clove oil significantly increased glucose in anaesthetized group, and constantly decreased lactate dehydrogenase in anaesthetized group and recovered group. However, clove oil had not effect on other biochemical indices. These results suggests that the anesthetic use of clove oil at a concentration of 30 mg/l does not cause irreversible damage in carp.

In order to understand the relationship between the phase angle of piston ring and oil consumption was measured by analyzing $CO_2$concentration in exhaust gas. The use of hydrogen fuel not gasoline makes this possible because all of the carbon component in exhaust gas can be assumed to be produced from oil. As a result of experiment, it is known that the oil consumption varies periodically and a specific location of ring end gap was found at each peak of oil consumption. Therefore, it was found that the oil consumption was not constant even at the same operating conditions and this is because the relative locations of top and 2'nd ring end gap change arbitrarily.

An efficiency of a refrigeration cycle and a reliability of a compressor can be reduced if a refrigerant including excessive lubricating oil is exhausted from a rotary compressor. Thus, the oil behavior inside the compressor should be analyzed to improve the efficiency. A tested rotary compressor has been manufactured with visualization windows at upper parts in this study to investigate the oil behavior using developed visualization techniques. Discharge pipe with level gage has been visualized to investigate discharged oil amount. The oil behaviors inside the compressor and discharging pipe at various operating conditions have been analyzed. The results of the visualization for the discharging pipe have been compared with those of the upper part to confirm the accuracy.

In this study, for the crankshaft bearing design adapting discontinuous oil supply system, analyses were conducted to determine the lubrication characteristics such as oil flow rate and increase of oil temperature at main bearing and connecting rod bearing. Additionally, supplied oil pressure and temperature effects on the bearings were simulated to figure out lubrication characteristics on the bearings. Finally the effects of increasing the bearing width and clearance were introduced on the lubrication characteristics.
