The oxygen transfer rate is a parameter that characterizes the gas-liquid mass transfer in surface aerators. Gas-liquid transfer mechanisms in surface aeration tanks depend on two different extreme lengths of time; namely, macromixing and micromixing. Small scale mixing close to the molecular level is referred to as micromixing; whereas, macromixing refers to mixing on a large scale. Using experimental data and numerical simulations, macro- and micro-scale parameters describing the two extreme time scales were investigated. A scale up equation to simulate the oxygen transfer rate with micromixing times was developed in geometrically similar baffled surface aerators.

Effect of CO$_2$ concentration on reduction reactivity of oxygen carrier particles for chemical-looping combustor were investigated. Four particles, NiO/bentonite, OCN601-650, OCN702-1100, OCN702-1250, were used as oxygen carrier particles and two kinds of gases (CH$_4$, 5%, N$_2$ balance and CH$_4$ 5%, CO$_2$ balance) were used as reactants for reduction. For all oxygen carrier particles, higher maximum conversion, reduction rate, oxygen transfer capacity, and oxygen transfer rate were achieved when we used N$_2$ balance gas. OCN601-650 particle showed higher oxygen transfer rate for all gases than other particles, and therefore we selected OCN601-650 particle as the best candidate. For all particles, lower carbon depositions were observed when we used CO$_2$ balance gas.

Recently, several approaches have been used to measure the oxygen consumption rates of individual embryos, but relationship between oxygen consumption and pregnancy rates of Hanwoo following embryo transfer has not yet been reported. In this study, we investigated the correlation between oxygen consumption rate and pregnancy rates of Hanwoo embryo using a SECM. In addition to, the expression of apoptosis-related genes was determined using real-time PCR by extracting RNA according to the oxygen consumption of in vivo embryo. First, we found that the oxygen consumption significantly increased in blastocyst-stage embryos (blastocyst) compared to early blastocyst stage embryos, indicating that oxygen consumption reflects the embryo quality (Grade I). The oxygen consumption or GI blastocysts were significantly higher than those of GII blastocysts ($10.2{\times}10^{14}/mol\;s^{-1}$ versus $6.4{\times}10^{14}/mol\;s^{-1}$, p<0.05). Pregnant rate in recipient cow was 0, 60 and 80% in the transplantation of embryo with the oxygen consumption of below 10.0, 10.0~12.0 and over $12.0{\times}10^{14}/mol\;s^{-1}$, respectively. Apoptosis regulatory genes, Hsp-70.1 were significantly increased in over-10.0 group than below 10.0 group but in Caspase-3, Bax and P53 gene, there was no significant difference. In conclusion, These results suggest that measurement of oxygen consumption maybe help increase the pregnant rate of Hanwoo embryos.

In order to predict gas hold-up and oxygen transfer rate during sisomicin fermentation employing air lift fermentor, simulated media similar to fermentation broths in rheological proper- ties were prepared and used. Rheological properties of fermentation broths from 40 hours and 60 hours of cultivation were analyzed by applying to Power's Law equation. Regardless of addition and no addition of MgSO$_{4}$, the tendencies, that n value was decreased and K value was increased as aeration rate was increased, were shown. Simulated media of twelve different fermentation broths were formulated in a range of 0.7 to 2.1% CMC, and the values of gas hold-up and k$_{L}$a depending on superficial air velocity were measured using these simulated media. And the relation- ships, $\varepsilon$=$\alpha$U$_{Gr}$$\beta$, K$_{L}$a=$\gamma$U$_{Gr}$$\delta$ were obtained, and these equations are thought to be used to predict the values of gas hold-up and k$_{L}$a during fermentation.

One-dimensional oxygen transport relation is indispensable to study the oxygen distribution in the LBE-cooled system with an oxygen control device. In this paper, a numerical research is carried out to study the oxygen transport characteristics in a gas-phase oxygen control device, including the static case and dynamic case. The model of static oxygen control is based on the two-phase VOF model and the results agree well with the theoretical expectation. The model of dynamic oxygen control is simplified and the gas-liquid interface is treated as a free surface boundary with a constant oxygen concentration. The influences of the inlet and interface oxygen concentration, mass flow rate, temperature, and the inlet pipe location on the mass transfer characteristics are discussed. Based on the results, an oxygen mass transport relation considering the temperature dependence and velocity dependence separately is obtained. The relation can be used in a one-dimensional system analysis code to predict the oxygen provided by the oxygen control device, which is an important part of the integral oxygen mass transfer models.

Spray-dried NiO-based oxygen carriers developed for chemical looping combustion required high calcination temperatures above $1300^{\circ}C$ to obtain high mechanical strength applicable to circulating fluidized-bed process. In this study, the effect of CBB ($CaO{\cdot}BaO{\cdot}B_2O_3$) addition, as a binder, on the physical properties and oxygen transfer reactivity of spray-dried NiO-based oxygen carriers was investigated. CBB addition resulted in several positive effects such as reduction of calcination temperature and increase in oxygen transfer capacity and porosity. However, oxygen transfer rate was considerably decreased. This was more apparent when a higher amount of CBB was added and MgO was added together. From the experimental results, it is concluded that CBB added NiO-based oxygen carriers are not suitable for chemical looping combustion and a new method to reduce calcination temperature while maintaining high oxygen transfer rate of NiO-based oxygen carriers should be found out.

용존산소(D.O.) level은 유기산 및 포도당을 혼합한 배지에서 Azotobacter vinelandii UWD의 생장 및 생분해성 고분자(PHBV) 생성에 큰 영향을 주었다. 용존산소 level이 높은 경우(5% D.O.)는 낮은 경우(1% D.O.)에 비해 세포의 생장속도가 약 2배 증가하였으나 PHBV 생성은 D.O.가 낮은 경우 62.3 wt%로 D.O.가 높은 경우에 비해 약 17배 증가하였다. 그러나 B.O. level은 통기(aeration)에 의한 A. vinefandii UWD의 발효특성 연구에 적합한 기준이 아니었다. 공기공급속도를 고정하고 교반속도만을 변화시키는 통기법으로 산소전달속도를 감소시켰을 때 이 균주는 산소소모속도를 그에 따라 대응 감소시킴으써 겉보기 D.O.를 높게(5%) 유지할 수 있었고 이 때 생장이 느려지고 PHBV 양은 57.3 wt%로 증가하였다. 통기가 세포생장 및 PHBV 생성에 미치는 영향을 일관성 있게 설명할 수 있는 기준은 D.O. level이 아니라 산소전달속도였으며 비생장속도는 산소전달속도에 비례하여 증가하였고 PHBV 생산량은 산소전달속도에 반비례하였다.

Xanthomonas campestris에 의한 생물고분자 xanthan gum 생산의 경우 배양액은 xanthan gum의 농도가 증가하면서 고점도의 non-Newtonian 유체로 변하게 되는데 이로 인하여 영양분과 산소의 물질전달이 저해를 받아 미생물의 성장과 xanthan gum의 생합성이 제한을 받게 된다. 본 연구에서는 교반속도를 변화시켜 가면서 회분식 및 유가식 배양을 하였으며 산소전달계수 측정실험을 하여 물질전달의 영향을 조사하였다. 미생물의 성장속도는 산소전달전달계수 변화에 대해 크게 영향을 받지 않았지만 xanthan gum의 생산속도는 산소전달계수값에 크게 의존하였다.

Molten iron with 2 mass % carbon content was decarbonized at 1823 K~1923 K by bubbling $Ar+O_2$ gas through a submerged nozzle. The reaction rate was significantly influenced by the oxygen partial pressure and the gas flow rate. Little evolution of CO gas was observed in the initial 5 seconds of the oxidation; however, this was followed by a period of high evolution rate of CO gas. The partial pressure of CO gas decreased with further progress of the decarbonization. The overall reaction is decomposed to two elementary reactions: the decarbonization and the dissolution rate of oxygen. The assumptions were made that these reactions are at equilibrium and that the reaction rates are controlled by mass transfer rates within and around the gas bubble. The time variations of carbon and oxygen contents in the melt and the CO partial pressure in the off-gas under various bubbling conditions were well explained by the mathematical model. Based on the present model, it was explained that the decarbonization rate of molten iron was controlled by gas-phase mass transfer at the first stage of reaction, but the rate controlling step was transferred to liquid-phase mass transfer from one third of reaction time.
