A simulation study on synthesis gas process in GTL process was carried out in order to find optimum operation conditions for GTL (gas-to-liquid) pilot plant design. Optimum operating conditions for synthesis gas process were determined by changing reaction variables such as feed temperature and pressure. During the simulation, overall synthesis process was assumed to proceed under steady-state conditions. It was also assumed that physical properties of reaction medium were governed by RKS (Redlich-Kwong-Soave) equation. The effect of temperature and pressure on synthesis gas process $H_2$/CO ratio were mainly examined. Simulation results were also compared to experimental results to confirm the reliability of simulation model. Simulation results were reasonably well matched with experimental results.

Analytical approach was followed in this work under both the steady state and transient operating conditions to find optimum boundary conditions, where the optically accessible quartz engine can run safely without breaking. Temperature and stress distribution was predicted by FEM analysis. In order to validate thermal boundary condition, model reliability and constraint, outside cylinder temperature was measured and previous study was also followed up numerically. To reduce thermal stress level, three types of outside cooling (natural, moderate forced and intensive forced convection) were considered. Effects of clamping force and combustion pressure were conducted to investigate mechanical stress level. Cylinder thickness, was changed to fine the optimum cylinder thickness. The versatile results achieved from this work can be basic indication, which is capable of causing a sudden quartz cylinder breaking during fired operation.

Protease production and its characteristics were investigated with Mucor racemosus f. racemosus PDA 103 which was isolated from Korean traditional meju. Optimum culture conditions of the strain for the production of the protease in basic medium[bean(Baektae):H2O=1:1(w/v)] were as follows: pH 6, 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 72hrs. Optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity of the protease produced by Mucor racemosus f. racemosus were pH 5 and 5$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was relatively stable a pH2.0~5.0 and at temperature below 4$0^{\circ}C$. Phenylmethane-sulfonyl fluoride and Ag+ inhibited the enzyme activity. This indicates that the enzyme is serine protease. Km value was 0.9$\times$10-4M and Vmax value was 5.93$\mu\textrm{g}$/min. This enzyme hydrolyzed casein more rapidly than bovine albumin.

To produce acetoin as a precursor of the tetramethylpyrazine flavor compound from citrate by Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis biovar. diacetilactis FC1, fermentation factors such as inital pH of culture media, temperature, concentration of Na-citrate, thiamin-HC1 and sugars were examined. The best acetoin production was achieved with initial pH in the culture media of 5.5, fermentation temperature of $34^{\circ}C$, Na-citrate concentration of 3%, addition of thiamin-HC1 at 2 mg/l and galactose as a carbon source. When fermentation was carried out under the optimum conditions, the exhaustion of Na-citrate and the production of acetoin took simultaneously and acetoin reached the maximum content, 80 mmole/l after 20 hours.

The growth of Porphyridium cruentum and its porphyran polysaccharide production were measured as functions of light intensity, temperature, light quality (fluorescent, blue, red, and green) and nitrate concentration. The optimum light intensity, temperature, and nitrate concentration for the growth of Porphyridium cruentum and for its polysaccharide production were 1,400 lx, $25^{\circ}C$, and 0.03%, respectively. The maximum cell concentration and polysaccharide content under the optimum conditions were 1.95 and 0.23 mg/mL, respectively. Light quality did not influence growth or polysaccharide production. The best results for growth and polysaccharide production were obtained using fluorescent light.

A generator-GAX combined rectification system of an ammonia absorption heat pump was investigated to get the optimum design values. The mass and heat transfer phenomena of the rectification system were analysed. The number of column plates, equilibrium temperature of solution on each plate and flow rates of solution and vapor generated were predicted. The characteristics of mass and heat transfer of the generator-GAX combined rectification system, i.e. concentration difference of leaving solution and vapor on each column plate, were found to be mainly governed by the pressure of generator, reflex ratio and temperature difference of analyser coolant. The number of rectification column plates for each different pressure in generator was obtained. The optimum locations for installing the feeder from solution-cooled absorber and GAX desorber in generator were predicted. The improvement of COP was followed by the increase of the rectifier efficiency and the number of column plate, and the decrease of reflex ratio.

Extracellular laccase (E.C. 1.10.3.2) from the culture filtrate of Pleurotus ostreatus was purified by ammonium sulfate precipctation, protamine sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel permeation chromatography. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to be 58,000 and the isoelectric point was 3.75. The optimum temperature for the enzyme was about $45^{\circ}C$ and the optimum pH was 6.5. The enzyme was found to be stable at temperature below $35^{\circ}C$ and rapidly inactivated at higher temperatures. Km values for ferulic acid, vanillic acid, dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) were 48.6.$\mu$M, 0.52mM, and 2.73mM, respectively, which indicates that the enzyme has much higher affinity towards ferulic acid. The reaction products of the enzyme were separated by TLC and HPLC.

Epitaxial Si layers were deposited on n- or p-type Si(100) substrates by hot-wall chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique using the {{{{ {SiH }_{ 2} {Cl }_{2 } - {H }_{ 2} }}}}chemistry. Thermodynamic calculations if the Si-H-Cl system were carried out to predict the window of actual Si deposition procedd and to investigate the effects of process variables(i.e., the deposition temperature, the reactor pressure, and the source gas molar ratios) on the growth of epitaxial layers. The calculated optimum process conditions were applied to the actual growth runs, and the results were in good agreement with the calculation. The expermentally determined optimum process conditions were found to be the deposition temperature between 900 and 9$25^{\circ}C$, the reactor pressure between 2 and 5 Torr, and source gad molar ration({{{{ {H }_{2 }/ {SiH }_{ 2} {Cl }_{2 } }}}}) between 30 and 70, achieving high-quality epitaxial layers.

High Temperature deformation behavior of newly developed beta-gamma TiAl alloy was investigated in this study. The optimum processing condition was investigated with the aid of Dynamic Materials Model (DMM). Processing maps representing the efficiency of power dissipation for microstructural evolution and instability were constructed utilizing the results of hot compression test at temperatures ranging from $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1200^{\circ}C$ and strain rate ranging from $10^{-4}/s$ to $10^2/s$. The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) simulation was adopted to consider the deformation heating. With the help of processing map and microstructural analysis, the optimum processing condition was presented and the role of $\beta$ phase was also discussed in this study.

Response surface methodology was used for monitoring extraction conditions, based on quality properties of old pumpkin extracts. Hunter's color L value of extracts was maximized at 101℃, 2.6 hr and decreased gradually after maximum point. The polynomial equation for Hunter's color L value showed 10% of significance level and 0.8799 of R². Hunter's color a value was minimized at 117℃, 3.9 hr and R² of polynomial equation was 0.9852 within 1% significance level. Hunter's color b value and ΔE value increased as the extracting temperature and time increased. Extraction yield of old pumpkin was maximized at 110℃, 4 hr and increased in proportional to the extracting temperature and time, but decreased after 113℃ and 2 hr. Viscosity of pumpkin extracts were maximized at 120℃, nearly 3 hr. R² of polynomial equations for yield, viscosity and sugar content were 0.9532, 0.9812 and 0.8869, respectively. Optimum ranges of extraction conditions for quality properties of old pumpkin were 102∼109℃, 2.5∼3.5 hr, respectively. Predicted values at the optimum extraction condition agreed with experimental values.
