The aims of this study is to examine the effects of the changes in HRT(Hydraulic Retention Time) and media charge in a water-mill, among other operation factors, on the nitrogen and phosphorus removal in order to use up-flow anaerobic reactors, anoxic reactors and water-mill aerobic reactors for sewage treatment. The extension of HRT improved the nitrogen removal efficiency, however the removal pattern was constant regardless of HRT. The removal of phosphorus was constant (80%-90%) regardless of the change in HRT. The removal rate with change in influx load varied such that at the OLR (Organic Load Rate) of 1-3 kg/d, the T-N removal efficiency was 80.7%-88.9% and the T-P removal efficiency was 82.9%-89.3% while at the NLR (Nitrogen Loading Rate) of 0.108-0.156 kg/d the removal efficiencies were 80.7-88.9% (T-N) and 82.9-89.3% (T-P). The analyses of the nitrogen and phosphorous removal characteristics with the C/N and C/P ratio showed that the mean T-N removal rate was 88% at the C/N ratio of 1.2-2.6, and that the mean T-P removal rate was 86% at the C/P ratio of 7.2-14.1. Also, the analysis of nitrogen and phosphorous removal characteristics were analyzed in relation to media charge. The comparison between with and without media charge in the water-mill showed that while the nitrogen removal efficiencies were 86-94% and 85-89% respectively, the difference of phosphorous removal efficiencies were between the two conditions was not significant, thus it suggested that the media charge has less effect on the removal efficiency of phosphorous compared to that of nitrogen.

The kinetics of the reaction of benzyl m-nitrobenzenesulfonate with m-and p-substituted N,N-dimethylanilines in acetone have been investigated by an electric conductivity method. The effects of substituents on the reactivity of N,N-dimethylaniline and the existence of linear free energy relationship were discussed. The rate constants k were in the range 2.55∼487 $10^{-4}l{\cdot}mol^{-l}{\cdot}sec^{-1} (35^{\circ}C)$ and increased with the electron donating ability of substituents. In the present reaction, the Hammett plot was correlated with ${\sigma}$ substituent constant, especially using the new ${\sigma}$ value of 0.35 in p-MeO and it's ${\rho}$ value was found to be -1.37. r value for the reaction was very large than the value obtained in the reaction of benzyl bromide. $Br{\"{o}}nsted$ linear relationship was shown between rate constant and basicites except for p-MeO resulted from solvent effect. From the Bronsted plot, this reaction was suggested that the cleavage of the C${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$O bond in the $S_N2$ transition state proceed the bond formation.

In the present investigation, an attempt has been made to apply the methods of classical chemical kinetics to the hydrolytic reaction of pipethanate hydrochloride. By successively keeping all but one variable essentially constant, it has been possible to resolve the overall effect of the individual contributing factors. Since nearly all commercial pipethanate preparations are formulated with antacid, studies were made at several constant hydrogen ion concentration ranging pH 0.4 to 7.5. Rate measurement was also carried out in temperature ranging from $25^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$. The hydrolysis of pipethanate is found to be of first order with respect to pipeethanate concentration over an experimental range of hydrogen ion concentration (pH 0407.5). The apparent activation energy(Ea) at pH 7.5 is 18.30 Kcal/mole and the frequency factor is $1.1408 {\times}10^{9}sec^{-1}$. The rate of the hydrolysis has a minimum at pH 2.5-3.5. In this region the half-life of pipethanate was about15.3 days at $60^{\circ}C$. The catalytic effect of water was found to be $K_{H_2O}$ = $3.16{\times}10^{-5}min^{-1}$ at $60^{\circ}C$. The catalytic constants of the hydroxyl ions and hydrogen ions at $60^{\circ}C$ were also found to be $K_{OH}$ = $4.5519{\times}10^{-5}min^{-1}$ and $K_{H}+$ = $1.1568{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}$, respectively. This reaction appears to be primarily base catalyzed hydrolysis and pipethanate is relatively reluctant toward acid catalyzed hydrolysis. A positive primary salt effect was noted in the solution of phpethanate at pH 7.5 and at $60^{\circ}C$.

Solids flow characteristics have been determined in a pressurized solids recycle systems of silica sand particles for the application in a pressurized CFB(PCFB). The solids recycle system is composed of a downcomer(0.10 m i.d. 2.25 m high) and a loop-seal(0.10 m i.d.). The silica sand($d_p=240{\mu}m$, ${\rho}_s=2582kg/m^3$) particles were transported at room temperature and system pressure($P_{sys}$) up to 0.71 MPa using air. Solids mass flux($G_s$) increases with increasing system pressure at constant aeration rate. Pressure gradient, solids velocity and actual gas velocity increase with increasing $P_{sys}$ at constant aeration rate. The Pressure drop number($\Phi$) on pressure gradient in downcomer has been correlated with Transportation number(Tr). Pressure drop across the loop-seal increases with increasing of $G_s$ irrespective of variation of $P_{sys}$. The obtained $G_s$ and Transportation number(Tr) have been correlated with the experimental variables.

A study on the behavior of boron extraction by TMPD(2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol) was carried out to find the optimum conditions for the boron extraction from brine. In case of boron extraction from 0.736 g/L boron-containing brine, typical optimum extractive conditions would be confirmed to be 0.75 mol/L of extractant concentration at 3.0 pH of brine with 1 of phase ratio and 20 min. of shaking time at 298 K respectively. And 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide of stripping agent was shown above 99 % of boron extraction and stripping efficiencies. Also, extraction equilibrium equation were obtained through experiments as follows : log D = 1.7 log $[TMPD]_O$ + constant at pH < 6.

$\beta$-Glucosidase enzyme reaction under high hydrostatic pressure was investigated in terms of physical chemistry. A model substrate (p-nitrophenyl-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside(pNPG)) was used, and the pressure effects on the enzymatic hydrolysis (pNPG${\rightarrow}$pNP) at 25 MPa, 50 MPa, 75 MPa, and 100 MPa were analyzed. Two parts of the reaction such as kinetic and equilibrium stages were considered for mathematical modelling, and their physicochemical parameters such as forward and inverse reaction constants, equilibrium constant, volume change by pressure, etc. were mathematically modeled. The product concentration increased with pressure, and the two stages of reaction were observed. Prediction models were derived to numerically compute the product concentrations according to reaction time over kinetic to equilibrium stages under high pressure condition. Conclusively, the $\beta$-Glucosidase enzyme reaction could be activated by pressurization within 100 MPa, and the developed models were very successful in their prediction.

Objective: The objectives were to demonstrate that the nitrogen and energy in pig urine supplemented with hydrochloric acid (HCl) are not volatilized and to determine the minimum amount of HCl required for nitrogen preservation from pig urine. Methods: In Exp. 1, urine samples of 3.0 L each with 5 different nitrogen concentrations were divided into 2 groups: 1.5 L of urine added with i) 100 mL of distilled water or ii) 100 mL of 6 N HCl. The urine in open plastic containers was placed on a laboratory table at room temperature for 10 d. The weight, nitrogen concentration, and gross energy concentration of the urine samples were determined every 2 d. In Exp. 2, three urine samples with different nitrogen concentrations were added with different amounts of 6 N HCl to obtain varying pH values. All urine samples were placed on a laboratory table for 5 d followed by nitrogen analysis. Results: Nitrogen amounts in urine supplemented with distilled water decreased linearly with time, whereas those supplemented with 6 N HCl remained constant. Based on the linear broken-line analysis, nitrogen was not volatilized at a pH below 5.12 (standard error = 0.71 and p<0.01). In Exp. 3, an equation for determining the amount of 6 N HCl to preserve nitrogen in pig urine was developed: additional 6 N HCl (mL) to 100 mL of urine = 3.83×nitrogen in urine (g/100 mL)+0.71 with R² = 0.96 and p<0.01. If 62.7 g/d of nitrogen is excreted, at least 240 mL of 6 N HCl should be added to the urine collection container. Conclusion: Nitrogen in pig urine is not volatilized at a pH below 5.12 at room temperature and the amount of 6 N HCl required for nitrogen preservation may be up to 240 mL per day for a 110-kg pig depending on urinary nitrogen excretion.

For 0 < $p$ < ${\infty}$, ${\alpha}$ > -1 and 0 < $r$ < 1, we show that if $f$ is in the space of Dirichlet type $\mathfrak{D}^p_{p-1}$, then ${\int}_{1}^{0}M_{p}^{p}(r,f^{\prime})(1-r)^{p-1}rdr$ < ${\infty}$ and ${\int}_{1}^{0}M_{(2+{\alpha})p}^{(2+{\alpha})p}(r,f^{\prime})(1-r)^{(2+{\alpha})p+{\alpha}}rdr$ < ${\infty}$ where $M_p(r,f)=\[\frac{1}{2{\pi}}{\int}_{0}^{2{\pi}}{\mid}f(re^{it}){\mid}^pdt\]^{1/p}$. For 1 < $p$ < $q$ < ${\infty}$ and ${\alpha}+1$ < $p$, we show that if there exists some positive constant $c$ such that ${\parallel}f{\parallel}_{L^{q(d{\mu})}}{\leq}c{\parallel}f{\parallel}_{\mathfrak{D}^p_{\alpha}}$ for all $f{\in}\mathfrak{D}^p_{\alpha}$, then ${\parallel}f{\parallel}_{L^{q(d{\mu})}}{\leq}c{\parallel}f{\parallel}_{\mathcal{B}_p(q)}$ where $\mathcal{B}_p(q)$ is the weighted Besov space. We also find the condition of measure ${\mu}$ such that ${\sup}_{a{\in}D}{\int}_D(k_a(z)(1-{\mid}a{\mid}^2)^{(p-a-1)})^{q/p}d{\mu}(z)$ < ${\infty}$.

Inclusion complex formation of octyldimethl p-aminobenzoate with $\beta$-cyclodextrin in aqueous solution and in the solid state was studied by the solubility method, spectroscopic(UV, FT-lR) and X -ray diffractometry. The solid complex of octyldimethy p-aminobenzoate with $\beta$-cyclodextrin was obtained in molar ratio of 1 : 2(guest/host). A spatial relationship between host and guest molecule was clearly reflected in the magnitude of the apparent stability constant (K') and in the stoichiometry of the inclusion complex. Furthermore, a typical type Bs phase-solubility diagram was obtained for octyldimethyl p-aminobenzoate and p -cyclodextrin in water at $25^{\circ}C$. The results indicated that the solubility of the guest molecule was higher by the formation of $\beta$-cyclodextrin inclusion complex.
