  • This study investigated the effect of dry heat treatment (DHT) on the physicochemical properties of hard type (HR) and floury type (FR) rice to improve the processing aptitude of rice flour. The rice flour was heated at 130℃ for 0, 2 and 4 hours, and the color value, water absorption index (WAI), water soluble index (WSI), swelling power, solubility, pasting properties, particle shape and the X-ray diffraction were measured. After DHT, the L value of rice flour decreased, and the b value increased. The WAI, WSI, swelling power and solubility of HR and FR increased with the increase of treatment time. The cold viscosity and setback increased, while breakdown decreased. Cracks and lumps formed with fine particles were observed. The X-ray diffraction pattern was A-type, while the diffraction intensity decreased. According to the results of the two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, the hydration and pasting properties were significantly different between HR and FR and were affected by DHT time. The results suggest that the properties of modified rice flour by DHT can be used in the food industry.

  • The optimal conditions for the production of branched dextrin from com starch (CSBD) using branching enzyme (BE) were established by investigating the degree of retrogradation of the gelatinized starch. The physicochemical properties of CSBD prepared using the established process were evaluated. It was found that physicochemical properties of com starch were greatly modified by BE treatment. CSBD had a higher dextrose-equivalent value and water solubility than the corresponding control. On the other hand, the viscosities in gelatinized solution and amylose contents of CSBD were lower than those of the control. A high-performance size-exclusion chromatography/multiangle laser light scattering/retractive index (HPSEC/MALLS/RI) system showed that the average molecular weight of CSBD was lower than that of the control. The pasting viscosities of CSBD were stable during the entire temperature cycle. In general, the BE treatment resulted in the retrogradation during storage being lower for CSBD than for the control.

  • As the target area of this study, the coal mine site of Dongwon Sabuk mine.,ltd. is located in the remote mountainous region. To purify the acid mine water contaminated with heavy metals, a pilot-scale plant was built at the surrounded area of a mine shaft and operated to simulate active treatment system that could not only possibly setup the facility in a small available area, but also has a high efficiency. According to the various conditions of basin sequence, existence of sludge return, and lime injection position, six different types of treatment series were investigated in terms of treatment efficiency. As a result, the aluminum concentrations of the most effluents were in the range of 0.005~0.030 mg/L, which was too low to compare. The manganese concentration in the treated water were in the range of 3~9 mg/L, not following any regular trend. As found in the results of iron concentration, the case of addition of oxidation and sludge return steps showed higher efficiency than the others. As a standpoint of the installation of full-scale physicochemical treatment facility, the experimental results showed that the batch of oxidation and high density sludge return processes are existed and neutralization was followed by oxidation, had a stable treatment efficiency.

  • Previous research has indicated that radish powder could be a suitable replacement for chemical nitrite sources in alternatively cured meat products. However, the effects of radish powder level on the physicochemical properties of cured meat have not been systematically studied. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of varying concentrations of radish powder and incubation time on the physicochemical properties and cured meat pigments of alternatively cured meat products. We divided our experimental setup into seven groups with different radish powder concentrations and incubation times: control (0.01% sodium nitrite), treatment 1 (0.15% radish powder and 2 h incubation), treatment 2 (0.15% radish powder and 4 h incubation), treatment 3 (0.30% radish powder and 2 h incubation), treatment 4 (0.30% radish powder and 4 h incubation), treatment 5 (0.30% celery powder and 2 h incubation), and treatment 6 (0.30% celery powder and 4 h incubation). The cooking yield, CIE a* values (redness), and total pigment levels were not significantly different (p > 0.05) between any of the alternatively cured treatments and the control. However, when 0.30% radish powder or celery powder was added to the products, the CIE b* values increased significantly (p < 0.05) with incubation time. At the same vegetable concentration, the nitrite content, nitrosyl hemochrome, and curing efficiency also increased significantly (p < 0.05) as the incubation time increased from 2 to 4 h, regardless of the types of vegetable powder. Among the meat products cured with radish powder, treatment 4 showed the highest increase in residual nitrite content, nitrosyl hemochrome content, and curing efficiency, but showed decreased lipid oxidation. Our results suggest that increased concentrations of radish powder and longer incubation times would be more suitable for producing alternatively cured meat products comparable to traditionally cured products treated with synthetic nitrite.

  • In order to investigate the change of physicochemical properties of ginseng root starch during storage and heat treatment, the roots were stored for 15 days at 5 $^{\circ}C$, 15 $^{\circ}C$, 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 45$^{\circ}C$, and heated for 15 hours at 6$0^{\circ}C$, 7$0^{\circ}C$, 8$0^{\circ}C$, 9$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The starch content was decreased from about 40% to 23-26% and sucrose content was increased from 4% to 12-16% during storage for 15 days at 5-45$^{\circ}C$. Maltose, which was not detected in fresh samples, was increased up to 8.5% during storage or heat treatment. Granular size of the starch was decreased and some of the granules were broken during storage. Amylose content in the starch was decreased from 33% to 20%, and blue value and alkali number of the starch were increased slightly, and solubility and swelling power of the starch were decreased during storage. 3 The higher storage temperature and the longer storage time, the starch was more susceptible to gelatinize, and the viscosity of the starch was lowered with the susceptibility of gelatinization. The susceptibility of degradation of the starch by the amylase was increased and amylolytic activities in ginseng root were, also, increased during storage.

  • The present study investigated the volatile compound, physicochemical, and antioxidant properties of beany flavor-removed soy protein isolate (SPI) hydrolyzates produced by combined high temperature pre-treatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. Without remarkable changes in amino acid composition, reductions of residual lipoxygenase activity and beany flavor-causing volatile compounds such as hexanol, hexanal, and pentanol in SPI were observed after combined heating and enzymatic treatments. The degree of hydrolysis, emulsion capacity and stability, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity, and superoxide radical scavenging activity of SPI were significantly increased, but the magnitudes of apparent viscosity, consistency index, and dynamic moduli (G', G") of SPI were significantly decreased after the combined heating and enzymatic treatments. Based on these results, it was suggested that the enzymatic hydrolysis in combination with high temperature pre-treatment may allow for the production of beany flavor-removed SPI hydrolyzates with superior emulsifying and antioxidant functionalities.

  • The combination of biological and physical/chemical technologies is a promising technique to reduce highly concentrated pollutants in livestock wastewater. It is suggested to treat livestock wastewater efficiently as follows: firstly, biodegradable organic matters, nitrogen and some of phosphorus should be removed by a biological treatment process and then residual non-biodegradable organic matters, color and phosphorus be eliminated by physicochemical technologies. In this study, therefore, the integrations of chemical coagulation, activated carbon adsorption, Fenton oxidation and ozonation were evaluated to provide appropriate post-treatment processes for biologically pre-treated livestock wastewater. After chemical coagulation followed by ozonation or Fenton oxidation process, the quality of treated wastewater could meet the discharge limit in Korea. However, a yellowish brown color still remained in the treated wastewater after a single method such as coagulation and Fenton oxidation was applied. The ozonation was found to be the most effective technology for the decolorization. Neither simple biological nor physicochemical treatment provides adequate decolorization and sufficient depletion of organics in livestock wastewater so far. Consequently, the integration of Fenton oxidation and ozonation with a biological treatment process is recommended to treat livestock wastewater in terms of removal efficiency.

  • Today, many problems of dye-processing wastewaters were raised due to industry of dyeing and textiles. It is difficult to treat them perfectly because they contain many poorly degradable matters, such as surfactants, ethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, and so on. To improve the performances of conventional physicochemical treatment and activated sludge process, new systems of combining jet-loop reactor (JLR) with physicochemical treatment were developed. Volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient ($k_{L}a$) of JLR was significantly larger than that of air-lift reactor. Also, for the effective treatment of dye-processing wastewater, JLR with active carbon supports (JLRAS) were investigated. Removal efficiency of BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, $COD_{Cr} and color were found as 99, 86, 84, 83%, respectively, when HRT was 8 hrs. And performance of JLRAS was rapidly restored after step change of $COD_{Mn}$ loading late. The optimal coagulant and dosage of second physicochemical treatment after JLRAS were polyferric sulfate and 130 mg/L, respectively, when removal efficiencies of $COD_{Mn} and color were 85 and 73%, respectively. In conclusion, this system enables the reduction of operation cost, and the effective removal of many organics.

  • Background : The aim of the present study was to identify an effective physicochemical control method to reduce Fusarium species infestation in adlay (Coix lacryma-jobi L.) before and after harvesting. Methods and Results : We observed that prochloraz emusifiable concentrate and hexaconazol prochloraz emusifiable concentrate strongly inhibited the mycelial growth of 10 Fusarium species. Strong growth inhibitions and cell lysis were observed following treatment with 4% NaOCl solution. The total number of fungi detected were lower follwing treatment with thiophanatemethyl triflumizole wettable powder ($1.1{\times}10^4CFU/g$), hexaconazol prochloraz emulsifiable concentrate ($1.2{\times}10^4CFU/g$), carboxin thiram dustable powder ($1.6{\times}10^4CFU/g$) and prochloraz emulsifiable concentrate ($1.7{\times}10^4CFU/g$) than in the non-treated control ($7.7{\times}10^4CFU/g$). The reduction of Fusarium fungi varies with the concentration and soaking time of NaOCl solution. Fungal detection was not observed after soaking in NaOCl solution for 24 h and harmful effects were not observed for plant growth by NaOCl after soacking for 6 - 12 h. Conclusion : Soaking seed for 6 - 12 h in 4% NaOCl could be an effective method of disinfectant treatment for the control of Fusarium fungi in adlay seeds.

  • Starch samples of rice and glutinous rice starches were adjusted to 27 % of moisture and heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 16 hours, respectively. After the treatment, their physicochemical properties were investigated. The granule shapes of all the starches were polygonal and they became slightly bigger in their sizes after the treatment. All their X-ray diffraction patterns were A types. The specific gravity of the starches decreased to 1.03-1.09 by the treatment. The water binding capacity of rice starches increased, while that of glutinous counterparts slightly decreased. Almost no change in the amount of amylose included was found. Swelling power and solubility were increased with the increase of temperature. At a certain temperature, however, the solubility of the treated starches increased when the swelling power decreased. The initial gelatinization temperatures of Akkibare, Yongmun, and Taebaek starches were $60{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ but those of glutinous rice starch and U.S.A. rice starch were $55{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ and $70{\sim}75^{\circ}C$, respectively, as measured by transmittance. The gelatinization temperature of the treated starches was higher than that of the untreated starches.
