It Is a unique dietary culture in Korea in that starch is isolated and utilized from steeped potato. In this experiment the potato was steeped in water at $30^{\circ}C$ for 7 days and the properties of starch were examined. The pH in steep water decreased, while sugar cotent (total and reducing) increased. The lager granules were diminished during steeping. Holes on the starch granules were observed from the second days of steeping The density, amylose content, phosphorus and lipid content were decreased. Relative crystallinity of starch reached the highest value at 4th day of steeping and decreased thereafter. The changes in enthalpy of gelatinization were similar. Starch was resistant to acid or enzymatic hydrolysis and showed lower values for swelling power and amylograph viscosities.

The effects of annealing heat treatment and the addition of Cu element on the shape memory effect of the NiTi-based alloy were investigated by analyzing differential scanning calorimeter results and characterizing recovery rate through 3D scanning after Vickers hardness test. Through 3D scanning of impressions after Vickers hardness test, the strain recovery rates for specimens without annealing treatment and annealed specimens at 400, 450, and 500℃ were measured as 45.96%, 46.76%, 52.37%, and 43.57%, respectively. This is because as the annealing temperature increases, both B19' and NiTi₂ phases, which can impede martensitic transformation, are incorporated within the NiTi matrix. Particularly, additional phase transformation from R-phase to B19' observed in specimens annealed at 400 and 450℃ significantly contributes to the improvement in strain recovery rates. Additionally, the results regarding the Cu element content indicate that when the total content of Ni and Cu is below 49.6 at.%, the precipitation of fine B19' and NiTi₂ phases within the matrix can greatly influence the transformation enthalpy and temperature range, resulting in relatively lower strain recovery rates in NiTi alloys with a small amount of Cu element produced in this study.

The perfluorocompounds (PFCs) emitted from the semiconductor and display manufacture is treated by abatement systems which use various technologies, such as combustion, thermal, plasma, catalyst. However, it is required that the system should overcome their drawbacks with excess energy consumption and low removal efficiency. The new technology using combination of pressure swing adsorption and excess enthalpy combustion for the reduction of PFCs emissions were developed and analyzed its characteristics. PFCs concentration ratio and PFCs loss factor were calculated from measuring concentration of PFCs at the calculated by comparing concentration of PFCs at the combustor's inlet and outlet. There were performance evaluations with various gas flow for comparing energy consumption and removal efficiency with existing equipments. The concentration ratio and the loss factor of PFCs were 1.65, 8.2%, respectively, when the total gas flow of the pressure swing absorption (PSA) inlet was 204 liter per minute (LPM) and $CF_4$ concentration was 1412 ppm. In comparison with existing system at constant condition, $CF_4$ removal efficiency for a porous media combustion (PMC) showed the improvement more than 16% and the consumed energy was also reduced up to approximately 41%. Then, the total gas flow introduced into PMC and $CF_4$ concentration were 91-LPM and 2335 ppm, respectively, and the destruction and removal efficiency of $CF_4$ was about 96% at 19-LPM $CH_4$, and 40-LPM $O_2$.

The correlation was investigated between the observed heat of ligation and calculated quantum chemical quantities for octahedral $[M(H_2O)_{6-x}(NH_3)_x]^{2+} (M=Fe(II),\;Ni(II))$ complexes by EHMO(Extended Huckel Molecular Orbital) and ZINDO/1(Zerner's Intermediate Neglected of Differential Overlap)method. The net charge of $Fe^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ ion of octahedral $[M(H_2O)_{6-x}(NH_3)_x]^{2+}(M=Fe(II),\;Ni(II))$ complexes(x=O, 1, …, 6) decreased with substituting $NH_3$ for $H_2O$ molecules. It has found that a good correlation exists between the observed heat of ligation and the calculated quantum chemical quantities such as net charge of central atom, enthalpy of formation, and total dissociation energy. From this finding, we have obtained the following semiempirical linear equation ${\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.2858_{qFe}+0.8813(r=0.97),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.8981_{qNi}+1.7929(r=0.95),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.0031H_{f(Fe)}+0.5725(r=0.97),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.0095H_{f(Ni)}+0.9193(r=0.97),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=0.0476E_{diss(Fe)}+0.6434(r=0.94),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=0.1401E_{diss(Ni)}+1.1393(r=0.93)$.

The effect of pH on surface hydrophobicity, sulfhydryl group, infrared spectrum, SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) pattern and enthalpy was investigated in recovered protein from mackerel and frozen blackspotted croaker by alkaline processing. Hydrophobic residue in myofibrillar protein exposed to the surface of protein, and hydrophobic interaction were the highest around 6$0^{\circ}C$. The surface hydrophobicity was different between myofibrillar protein and myofibrillar protein including sarcoplasmic protein (recovered protein). The peak at 1636 c $m^{-l}$ was increased with pH, and the recovered protein was unfolded in alkali pH. Difference of surface and total sulfhydryl group at pH 7.0 and 10 was comparative high, and decrease of surface sulfhydryl group indicated formation of S-S bonds. Mackerel and frozen blackspotted croaker in alkaline pH showed bands of polymerized myosin heavy chain on SDS-PAGE pattern. The transition temperatures of recovered protein were 33.1, 44.3 and 65.5$^{\circ}C$. Gelation of recovered protein from alkali processing was estimated by increase of $\beta$-sheet structure by pH treatment, S-S bonds by oxidation of surface sulfhydryl group in heating, polymerization of myosin heavy chain in order.r.

The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the ion exchange characteristics of five types of Zeolite(Zeolite-A, 13X, Y, Mordenite, Chabazite) for effective removal of Cs, Sr and Co ions in water solution at low concentration(0.01 N and 0.005 N). Total ion exchange capacity and equilibrium isotherm are measured, and free-energy change(${\Delta}G^0$) and enthalpy change(${\Delta}H^0$) in ion exchange reaction are calculated from experimental results. In addition the ion exchange equilibrium in the three-component system for three types of zeolite showing better efficiency is measured and plotted in triangle coordinates. It is shown from experimental results that the magnitude of free-energy change increases with the increasing ion selectivity, and the difference of free energy change between ions correlates closely with that of ion selectivity. The results also shows that Chabazite is effective for the adsorption of Cs ion, and Zeolite-A and Zeolite-13X for that of Sr and Co ions.

Physicochemical properties of amaranth starch were compared with those of waxy rice and waxy corn starches. Amaranth starch granules vary from $1.1{\sim}1.9\;{\mu}m$ in diameter and are polygonal in shape. Total amylose contents from waxy rice, waxy corn and amaranth starches were 0.01, 0.03 and 0.07%, respectively. Swelling power of amaranth starch granule was slightly different from waxy rice. The swelling power of amaranth increased at $70^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction patterns of amaranth and other waxy cereal starches showed an A-type crystalline structure. Relative crystallinities of their starches were similar. According to pasting properties by Rapid Visco-Analyzer, amaranth starch showed a very high gelatinization temperature $(75.1^{\circ}C)$ and lower viscosity and higher stability than other waxy cereal starches during heating and cooling cycle. Peak onset temperatures (To) of starches from waxy rice, waxy corn and amaranth in DSC thermograms were $58.7{\sim}64.0$, 67.2 and $71.5^{\circ}C$, respectively, and their peak enthalpies were similar. Enthalpy of reheated amaranth starch after 3 day storage at $4^{\circ}C$ was higher than those of waxy corn and rices starchs.

In this study, previously reported surplus solar energy-related study result and current status of fan coil unit (FCU) for cooling and heating installed in the current sites were briefly examined and then a method to determine the number of FCUs required to recover surplus solar energy was schematically proposed to provide basic data for researchers and technical engineers in this field. The maximum, mean, and minimum outside temperatures during the experiment period were about $28.2^{\circ}C$, $4.4^{\circ}C$, and $-11.5^{\circ}C$, respectively. The horizontal surface solar radiation level outside the greenhouse was in a range of $0.8-20.5MJ{\cdot}m^{-2}$ and mean and total solar radiation were $10.8MJ{\cdot}m^{-2}$ and $1,187.5MJ{\cdot}m^{-2}$. The mean temperature and relative humidity in the greenhouse during the daytime were in a range of 18.8-45.5 and 53.5-77.5%. The total surplus solar energy recovered from the greenhouse during the experiment period was approximately 6,613.4MJ, which could supplement about 6.7% of the total heating energy 98,600.2 MJ. In addition, the number of FCUs installed for heating varies case to case, although similar FCUs are used. Thus, it is necessary to study the installation height, orientation and installation distance as well as the appropriate number of FCUs from the efficient and economical viewpoints. The required numbers of FCUs for surplus solar energy recovery were 8.4-10.9units and 6.1-8.0units based on air mass and circular flow rate that passed through the FCUs. Considering calculation methods and the risks such as efficiency and use environments of FCUs, it was found that about nine units (one unit per $24m^3$ approximately) needed to be installed. The required number of FCUs for surplus solar energy recovery was around one unit per $24m^3$ approximately.

The physicochemical characteristics of ${\beta}-glucan$ isolated from waxy and non-waxy barley were investigated. The hull-less waxy and non-waxy barley containing 6.5% and 5.3% of total ${\beta}-glucan$ respectively, were used as a starting material. The yield and ${\beta}-glucan$ content of crude ${\beta}-glucan$ from waxy barley was 5.54% and 62.9%, respectively, and those were higher than 3.34% and 59.2% from non-waxy barley. The crude ${\beta}-glucan$ purified with selective precipitation and enzymatic treatment to obtain the ${\beta}-glucan$ isolate of high purity (>99%). The total yield of purified ${\beta}-glucan$ from waxy and non-waxy barley was 4.46% and 2.59%, respectively. The surface appearance of the purified ${\beta}-glucan$ by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed randomly entangled multi-net structure of ${\beta}-glucan$ microfibrils. The melting temperature of ${\beta}-glucan$ from waxy and non-waxy barley measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was $184.6^{\circ}C$, and $180.3^{\circ}C$, respectively. DSC endotherm of ${\beta}-glucan$ solution showed 2 peaks near $68^{\circ}C$ and $84^{\circ}C$. Enthalpy of phase transition was higher in non-waxy ${\beta}-glucan$ than waxy ${\beta}-glucan$, and the intrinsic viscosity of ${\beta}-glucan$ solution from waxy barley was higher than that of non-waxy ${\beta}-glucan$. The pasting viscosity of barley starch with the purified ${\beta}-glucan$ determined by Rapid Visco-Analyzer was higher than that of barley starch without ${\beta}-glucan$, and the effect of ${\beta}-glucan$ on increasing the paste viscosity was greater in non-waxy barley starch.

This study investigated the influence of starch extraction (ST-EX) solutions on the extraction yield and characteristics of Chinese yam (CY) starches from domestic Dioscorea batatas. Ascorbic acid (VitC), $Na_2S_2O_3$, $NaHCO_3$, and $Na_2CO_3$ were used as ST-EX solutions (0.4%, w/v). The extracted CY starches were examined for ST-EX yield, chemical composition, size distribution, X-ray diffraction, solubility, swelling power, gelatinization, and pasting viscosity. The highest ST-EX yield was obtained from $NaHCO_3$, followed by VitC. Lower protein content, relative crystallinity, and gelatinization enthalpy were found in CY starches from alkaline ST-EX solutions ($NaHCO_3$ and $Na_2CO_3$). Size distribution and gelatinization temperature did not generally differ for CY starches from the different ST-EX solutions. Pasting viscosities increased in the order from $Na_2CO_3$ > $Na_2S_2O_3$ > $NaHCO_3$ > VitC ST-EX solutions. Thus, VitC may be most appropriate to extract CY starch from Dioscorea rhizomes, considering its ST-EX yield, total starch content, and variation in pasting viscosity.
