A bacterium DGUM 2011 has been selected from various samples of industrial wastewater and soil. Based on the morphological and physiological characteristics, the isolate DGUM 2011 was identified as Rhodococcus sp. and named as Rhodococcus sp. DGUM 2011. The optimal temperature and pH for the cell growth of Rhodococcus sp. DGUM 2011 were 37$\circ$C and 7.6, respectively. When phenol was added to the minimal media as a sole source of carbon and energy, the concentrations of maximum and optimum for cell growth was 0.10% and 0.08%, respectively. When 0.05% phenol was given in the minimal media, Rhodococcus sp. DGUM 2011 completely utilize it within 24 hrs. The isolate could utilize benzoic acid, p-hydroxybenzoate, p-cresol, tyrosine and phloroglucinol. The isolate possessed both catechol 1,2-dioxygenase and 2,3-dioxygenase activity. However, the activity of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase was much higher than that of 2,3-dioxygenase, which suggests that the isolate might degrade phenol via both ortho- and meta-cleavage, mainly via ortho-cleavage.

We have performed the density functional theory calculations of $UO_2$ using the spin-polarized generalized gradient approximation (SP-GGA) and the SP-GGA+U approach. The SP-GGA+U approach correctly predicts the insulating electronic structure with antiferromagnetic ordering, but the SP-GGA calculations predict metallic behavior. The cohesive properties obtained from the SP-GGA+U calculations are in good agreement with the available experimental results and previous calculations. The spin-polarized local density of states shows that the antiferromagnetic ordering of $UO_2$ is governed by 5f orbitals of uranium ion. Our calculations demonstrate that the strong correlation of U 5f electrons should be taken into account for a reliable description of $UO_2$ physics.

염 농도와 감마선 조사 선량을 달리한 오징어젓갈의 미생물 균총 변화를 살펴보았다. 총균, Lactobacillus spp., Staphylococcus spp.는 발효기간에 따라 지속적으로 생장하여 발효 40일째에 염도 5%와 10%에서는 $10^8\;CFU/mL$까지, 염도 20%에서는 $10^7\;CFU/mL$까지 생장하였으며 5 kGy 이상 감마선 조사구는 초기 균수 감소로 발효 후기의 미생물 밀도가 낮아졌다. 염도가 증가할수록 감마선 조사가 미생물 생장에 미치는 영향이 컸으며, 감마선 조사에 의한 오징어젓갈 관련 발효 미생물의 생장억제는 염도 10%에 10 kGy의 감마선 조사 조건이 적합하였다. 발효미생물의 동정 결과, L. plantarum이 전 실험구에 걸쳐 가장 일반적인 발효균으로 분리되었으며 Lactobacillus sp. 2, Mic. varians, Streptococcus sp. 1 등은 염도 5%의 실험구에만, Mic. morrhuae 등은 20%의 염농도에서만 분리되어 염도에 따른 microflora의 차이를 나타내었다. 또한, L. brevis, Ped. halophilus, Pse. diminuta 등은 방사선 감수성이 큰 미생물군이었으며, L. plantarum, Mic. morrhuae, Pseudomonas sp. 3 등은 방사선에 대한 저항성이 높았다. 전체적으로 보아 염도 20% 실험구에서의 분리 미생물이 15종으로 가장 다양한 분포를 보였으며 염도가 낮아질수록, 감마선 조사선량이 높아질수록 종의 다양성은 낮았다.

본 연구의 목적은 지금까지 적용되지 않은 극소형시험편을 이용한 소형펀치(small punch : SP)시험과 비파괴시험방법(non-destructive test: NDT)으로 알려진 음항방출(acoustic emission : AE)시험에 의해 수소취화된 압력관 재료의 새로운 파괴강도 평가법으로서 SP시험의 적용 가능성을 조사하는데 있다. 시험결과, 300ppm-H까지의 수소농도에서, 수소농도에 따른 Esp의 저하가 상온보다 $-196^{\circ}C$의 경우가 뚜렷하여, 수소취화정도에 따른 Zr-2.5%Nb 압력관 재료의 파괴강도 평가는 상온보다 $-196^{\circ}C$의 저온환경하에서의 평가가 더욱 우수함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 수소농도의 증가에 따라 재료의 파괴과정에서 발생하는 AE신호의 평균에너지의 peak와 누적 평균에너지 그리고 단위 등가파괴변형률(equivalent fracture strain : ${\epsilon}_{qf}$)당 누적 평균에너지의 값이 크게 증가하였다. 그리고 하중-변위거동, Esp 거동, 거시적, 미시적 SEM 관찰 그리고 AE 시험 결과들로부터 미소시험편을 이용한 SP시험법은 수소취화된 CANDU 압력관 재료의 새로운 파괴강도 평가법으로 유용성이 있음을 알 수 있었다.

In a study of hydrogen-producing bacteria, strain T4384 was isolated from rice field samples in the Republic of Korea. The isolate was identified as Enterobacter sp. T4384 by phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequences. Enterobacter sp. T4384 grew at a temperature range of $10-45^{\circ}C$ and at an initial pH range of 4.5-9.5. Strain T4384 produced hydrogen at 0-6% NaCl by using glucose, fructose, and mannose. In serum bottle cultures using a complete medium, Enterobacter sp. T4384 produced 1,098 ml/l $H_2$, 4.0 g/l ethanol, and 1.0 g/l acetic acid. In a pH-regulated jar fermenter culture with the biogas removed, 2,202 ml/l $H_2$, 6.2 g/l ethanol, and 1.0 g/l acetic acid were produced, and the lag-phase time was 4.8 h. Strain T4384 metabolized the hydrolysate of organic waste for the production of hydrogen and volatile fatty acid. The strain T4384 produced 947 ml/l $H_2$, 3.2 g/l ethanol, and 0.2 g/l acetic acid from 6% (w/v) food waste hydrolysate; 738 ml/l $H_2$, 4.2 g/l ethanol, and 0.8 g/l acetic acid from Miscanthus sinensis hydrolysate; and 805 ml/l $H_2$, 5.0 g/l ethanol, and 0.7 g/l acetic acid from Sorghum bicolor hydrolysate.

Photobiological hydrogen production by nitrogen-fixing unicellular cyanobacteria has long been considered to be an environmentally sound and very promising method for the future supply of renewable clean energy. We tried to find out the optimum cell concentration for $H_2$ production in each of the two new Korean nitrogen-fixing unicellular cyanobacterial strains to compare with Synechococcus sp. strain Miami BG043511. The two Korean strains, Cyanothece sp. KNU CB MAL-031 and KNU CB MAL-058, were isolated from Korean west coasts. Cell concentrations up to 17 billion cells $ml^{-1}$ were applied to the tests. High cell concentration over 15 billion cells $ml^{-1}$ resulted in drastically reduced $H_2$ production in all the three strains. The two domestic strains, however, produced 2-3 time more hydrogen than Synechococcus sp. Miami BG043511 at cell concentrations of 5-10 billion cells $ml^{-1}$. At lower cell concentrations than 2 billion cells $ml^{-1}$, MAL-031 exhibited highest $H_2$ production followed by Miami BG043511, with far less production in MAL-058. Present result suggests that Cyanothece sp. MAL-CB031 might be one of the ideal nitrogen-fixing unicellular cyanobacterial strains for the photobiological hydrogen production.

In this study, a small punch creep(SP-Creep) test using miniaturized specimen$(10{\times}10{\times}0.5mm)$ has been described for the development of the newly semi-destructive creep test method for high temperature structural components such as headers and tubes of boiler turbine casino and rotor and reactor vessel. The SP-Creep testing technique has been applied to 2.25Cr-1Mo(STBA24) steel used widely as boiler tube material and the creep test temperature are varied at $550^{\circ}C{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. The overall deformations of SP-Creep curves are definitely depended with applied load and creep test temperature and show the creep behaviors of three steps like conventional uniaxial creep curves. The steady state creep rate${\delta}_{ss}$ of SP-Creep curve for miniaturized specimen increases with increasing creep temperature, but the exponential value with creep loading is decreased. The activation energy$(Q_{spc})$ during SP-Creep deformation with various test temperatures shows 605.7kJ/mol that is g.eater than 467.4kJ/mol reported in uniaxial creep test. This may be caused by the difference of stress states during creep deformation In two creep test. But from the experimental results, e.g. SP-Creep curve behaviors, the steady state creep rate${\delta}_{ss}$ with creep temperature, and the exponential value(n) with creep loading, it can be summarized that the SP-Creep test may be a useful test method to evaluate the creep properties of the heat resisting material.

A bacterium, which can utilize cyclohexanol as a sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from sludge in sewage of Ulsan Industrial Complex for Petrochemicals, Korea and identified as Rhodococcus sp. TK6. The growth conditions of the bacteria were investigated in cyclohexanol containing media. The bacteria utilized cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, cyclohexane-1,2=diol, cyclopentanol, cyclopentanone, and $\varepsilon$-caprolactone but not cyclohexane, cyclohexane-1,2-dione, and cyclooctanone. The bacteria were able to utilize alcohols such as ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-propanol, and 2-butanol as well as cyclohexanol, organic acids such as adipate, propionate, butyrate, valerate, n-caproate, and 6-hydroxycaproate, and aromatic compounds such as phenol, salicylate, p-hydroxbenzoate, and benzoate as a sole source of carbon and energy. Cyclohexanone as a degradation product of cyclohexanol by Rhodococcus sp. TK6 was determined with gas chromatography.

Mycobacterium sp. strain JC1 was capable of growth on benzylamine as a sole source of carbon and energy. The primary deamination of benzylamine was mediated by an inducible amine oxidase, which can also oxidize tyramine, histamine, and dopamine. Inhibitor study identified this enzyme as a copper-containing amine oxidase sensitive to semicarbazide.
