이온성 고분자에 비이온성 고분자를 섞어 이온 함량을 조절함으로써 다양한 전하량을 갖는 이온성 막을 제조하였다. 비이온성 고분자로는 폴리비닐알콜, 음이온성 고분자로는 알긴산 나트륨, 양이온성 고분자로는 키토산을 사용하였으며, 이들 이온성 고분자막을 사용하여 여러 전해질 수용액에 대한 투과 및 분리특성을 관찰하였다. 막 내부에 이온성 고분자 함량이 많을수록 친수성 특성을 보였으며, 순수투과 및 용액투과 속도가 증가함을 관찰할 수 있었고, 또한 투과속도는 막의 팽윤 거동에 의해 결정됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 용질 배제율의 경우는 막과 투과용질간의 정전기적 인력, 즉 Donnan exclusion에 의해 결정이 되며, 정전기적 인력이 비슷한 경우는 분자체 효과에 의해 분리됨이 관찰되었다.

Shoot tips of in vitro propagated plantlets were cryopreserved using encapsulation/dehydration procedures. Shoot tips were excised under filter sterilized antioxidants solution (0.2M phosphate buffer, pH 5.7 supplemented with 5g/1 ascorbic acid and 15g/1 sodium borate). They were drawn up into a sterile 10 $\textrm{cm}^3$disposable pipette and were dropped into the culture medium with 2.5w/v Na-alginate, then into 100mM CaCl$_2$.2$H_2O$. Encapsulated shoot tips were transferred into 10㎤ of liquid culture medium with a range of sucrose concentrations (0.25-1.0M) and were incubated in dark for 24 hours in 18C at 40rpm. Beads were then dehydrated in silica gel for different time intervals (1-24 hours). Then they were freeze dried either rapidly (plunge directly into liquid N2 or in two stages (samples were kept at 20C for 10 minutes, then reduced to 35C at 1C per minute. Then, plunge into liquid $N_2$). The influence of sucrose and silica gel pre-treatment on pre- and post-freeze shoot growth was examined.(중략)

In a desalination technology using RO membranes, chemical cleaning makes damage for membrane surface and membrane life be shortened. In this research cleaning technology using direct osmosis (DO) was introduced to apply it under the condition of high pH and high concentration of feed. When the high concentration of feed is injected to the concentrate side after release of operating pressure, then backward flow occurred from treated water toward concentrated for osmotic pressure. This flow reduces fouling on the membrane surface. Namely, flux of DO was monitored under pH 3, 5, 10 and 12 conditions at feed concentrations of NaCl 40,000 mg/L, 120,000 mg/L and 160,000 mg/L. As a result, DO flux in pH 12 increased about 21% than pH 3. DO cleaning was performed under the concentrate NaCl 160,000 mg/L of pH 12 during 20 minutes. Three kinds of synthetic feed water were used as concentrates. They consisted of organic, inorganic and seawater; chemicals of SiO2 (200 mg/L), humic acid (50 mg/L) sodium alginate (50 mg/L) and seawater. As a result, fluxes were recovered to 17% in organic fouling, 15% in inorganic fouling and 14% of seawater fouling after cleaning using DO under the condition of concentrate NaCl 160,000 mg/L of pH 12.

As a component for a recirculating aquaculture system, a new strain of denitrifying bacterium was isolated from municipal sewage. The isolate was motile by means of one polar flagellum, catalase-positive, and a Gram-negative rod-shaped cell measuring $0.5-0.6{\mu}m$ in width and $1.3-1.9{\mu}m$ in length. The isolate was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens and produced dinitrogen gas via the reduction of nitrate. The optimal growth conditions (pH, temperature, carbon source, and C/N ratio) of the isolate were found to be 6.8, $30^{\circ}C$, malate, and 3, respectively. Under optimal growth conditions of P. fluorescens, dinitrogen gas was first detected in the exponential growth phase, then a small amount of nitrite was developed and converted to dinitrogen gas in the stationary phase. Pseudomonas fluorescens cells were immobilized in modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel beads, and the maximum denitrification rate was measured as $36.6 {\mu}lN_2h^-1$ per bead with an optimum cell loading of $20mg {\mu}l^-1$ and $2\%$ sodium alginate added to the PVA gel. The operating stability of the modified PVA gel beads remained unchanged for up to 43 repeated batches.

To produce ethanol from Jerusalem artichoke powder efficiently, Kluyveromyces marxianus F043 cells were encapsulated in 2% sodium alginate and were cultured in a countinuous reactor to investigate the fermentation properties. Immobilized K. marxianus F043 cells were activated for 48 hours in a fermentor for continuous ethanol production. The culture in a CSTR using a Jerusalem artichoke substrate treated with 2% cellulase showed a decrease in ethanol concentration and an increase in residual saccharide concentration with a increasing dilution rate. Optimum conditions for high ethanol productivity and low residual saccharide output were clarified to be given at a dilution rate of 0.2 h$^{-1}$ and a Jerusalem artichoke medium concentration of 75 g/l. Ethanol productivity of 3.1 g/l-h and saccharide utilization of 62.6% were obtained under the optimum condition. When the fermentation was performed for 3 weeks under these conditions, the effluent medium showed stable ethanol concentrations of 16.3 - 17.9 g/l and viable cells of 6.60-7.16 log cells/ml without contamination. Trace amounts of methyl, n-propyl, iso-butyl, isoamyl alcohols besides ethanol were detected.

Poly(phenylene oxide)s were used to prepare flat, integrally skinned self-supporthed asymmetric membranes by dry-wet phase separption. The intrinsic ideal gas selectivity of poly- (2,6-dimethy-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PMPO) was retained in the membranes, and improved by a coating with silicone rubber. Polymers of the same class were coated of UF supports with a silicon rubber gutter layer, yielding composite membranes with high flux but lower selectivity. The effect of th glutaraldehyde cross-linking of sodium alginate (SA) membranes on the mobility of water and ethanol has been studied with pfg nmr. Crosslinking reduces water self-diffusion, and does not seem to be stable on the timescale of weeks.

An enzymatic reaction system was developed and optimized for bioconversion of resveratrol from glucose. Liquid enzyme extracts were prepared from Alternaria sp. MG1, an endophytic fungus from grape, and used directly or after immobilization with sodium alginate. When the enzyme solution was used, efficient production of resveratrol was found within 120 min in a manner that was pH-, reaction time-, enzyme amount-, substrate type-, and substrate concentration-dependent. After the optimization experiments using the response surface methodology, the highest value of resveratrol production (224.40 μg/l) was found under the conditions of pH 6.84, 0.35 g/l glucose, 0.02 mg/l coenzyme A, and 0.02 mg/l ATP. Immobilized enzyme extracts could keep high production of resveratrol during recycling use for two to five times. The developed system indicated a potential approach to resveratrol biosynthesis independent of plants and fungal cell growth, and provided a possible way to produce resveratrol within 2 h, the shortest period needed for biosynthesis of resveratrol so far.

PTFE 합성공정에서 대량으로 사용하는 고가의 음이온계 유화제를 분리/회수하는 것은 경제적인 문제 뿐만 아니라 환경적으로도 매우 중요하다. 음이온계 유화제의 회수에는 Water-evaporation, ion-exchange, freezing, electrodialysis등의 방법을 사용할 수 있다. 그러나 회수에 드는 경비가 높고 장치가 복잡하다는 단점이 잇다. 반\ulcorner에 막분리 공정은 장치가 간단하고 상대적으로 경비가 적게 든다는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 음이온계 유화제를 분리/회수하기 위해서 역삼투 공정을 사용하였다. 그러나 역삼투 공정과 같이 압력을 분리의 구동력으로 하는 막분리 공정에서는 농도분극 및 막오염 현상에 의한 투과량의 감소가 심각하게 일어나며 전체적으로 막분리 공정의 경제성을 떨어뜨리는 주된 요인이 된다. 특히 이온성 막을 사용할 경우 막과 이온성 용질간의 정전기적 포텐셜이 화학적 포텐셜과 함께 투과분리의 구동력을 이루게 되므로 투과거동이 매우 달라지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 막 재료의 이온특성과 음이온성 용질의 농도에 따른 막오염 현상의 관찰 및 이것이 투과거동에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 이를 위해 Sodium alginate, Chitosan, Poly(vinyl alcohol)을 이용하여 각각 음이온성, 양이온성, 중성 막을 제조하여 투과거동을 관찰하였다.

Graft polymers of alginic acid-PMMA, different in composition and Mv of branched PMMA, were prepared by emulsion graft polymerization at various MMA concentrations. In aqueous dispersion solution, the adsorption of graft polymer on the montmorillonite was carried out to modify the surface property of powder, and the adsorption of PMMA in organic solvents (acetone, benzene) on the modified surface of powder were observed. The results obtained were as follows. 1. In emulsion graft polymerization of MMA on the sodium alginate in aqueous solution, SA conversion, MMA conversion and % grafting were increased with increasing MMA concentration where as graft efficiency was decreased. 2. The adsorption amount of graft polymer was increased with the elevation of temperature and the increased of dispersion concentration and with the increase of branched PMMA composition of graft polymer. 3. In organic solvent, the adsorption of PMMA on the surface modified particle was proceeded by the orientation along the stretched branched PMMA of adsorbed graft polymer which is in radial direction to the particle surface. 4. The adsorbed amount of PMMA was increased as the temperature and concentration of PMMA solution, the branching of adsorbed graft polymer and the solvency of solvent were increased.

The mechanical behaviours of biopolymer-treated soil depend on the formation of soil-biopolymer matrices. In this study, various biopolymers(e.g., xanthan gum (XG), locust bean gum (LBG), sodium alginate (SA), agar gum (AG), gellan gum (GE) and carrageenan kappa gum (KG) are selected to treat three types of natural soil at different concentrations (e.g., 1%, 2% and 3%) and curing time (e.g., 4-365 days), and reveal the reinforcement effect on natural soil by using unconfined compression tests. The results show that biopolymer-treated soil obtains the maximum unconfined compressive strength (UCS) at curing 14-28 days. Although the UCS of biopolymer-treated soil has a 20-30% reduction after curing 1-year compared to the maximum value, it is still significantly larger than untreated soil. In addition, the UCS increment ratio of biopolymer-treated soil decreases with the increase of biopolymer concentration, and there exists the optimum concentration of 1%, 2-3%, 2%, 1% and 2% for XG, SA, LBG, KG and AG, respectively. Meanwhile, the optimum initial moisture content can form uniformly biopolymer-soil matrices to obtain better reinforcement efficiency. Furthermore, the best performance in increasing soil strength is XG following SAand LBG, which are significantly better than AG, KG and GE.
