The characteristics of de-emulsification of pertroleum emulsion by Nocardia amarae were investigated. Insoluble medium containing n-hexadecane was more effective than soluble medium in de-emulsification of emulsion containing diesel and bunker C as the organic phase. Emulsion made by the addition of xanthan or bioemulsifier was de-emulsified by N. amarae, and longer culture age was effective. In low viscosity range, organic phase with longer carbon chain was more effective. The contact, angle between bacterial film and water droplet in air increased from 16 degree for 4 day culture age to 26 degree for 15 day. The contact angle between bacterial film and water droplet in kerosene, n-heyxane or n-hexadecane also increased to greater than 100 degree after 3 day culture age. The hydrophobicity of bactgerial film increased according to the culture age.

Leaves of Aloe vera Linne and bloods of domestic animal were composted in a soild state fermentation reactor (SSFR) by using microbial additive including a bulking and moisture controlling agent. From solid-culture of microbial additive, 10 species of bacteria and 10 species of fungi were isolated and, their enzyme activities including amylase, carboxy methyl cellulase CMCase, lipase and protease were detected. Optimum fermentation conditions of Aloe leaves and domestic animal bloods in SSFR were obtained from the studies of response surface analysis employing microbial additive content, initial moisture content, and fermentation temperature as the independent variables. The optimum conditions for SSFR using Aloe leaves were obtained at 9.45$\pm$73%(w/w) of microbial additives, 62.73$\pm$4.54%(w/w) of initial moisture content and 55.32$\pm$3.14$^{\circ}C$ of fermentation temperature while those for SSFR using domestic animal bloods were obtained at 10.25$\pm$2.04%, 58.68$\pm$4.97% and 57.85$\pm$5.$65^{\circ}C$, respectively. Composting process in SSFR was initially proceeded through fermentation and solid materials were decomposed within 24 hours by maintaining higher moisture level, and maturing and drying steps are followed later. After the fermentation step, the concentrations of solid phase inorganic components were increased while that of organic components were decreased. Also, concentrations of total organic carbon(TOC), peptides, amino acids, polysaccharides, and low fatty acids in water extracts were increased. As fermentation in composting process depends on initial C/N ratios in water extracts of two samples were increased because of increased water-soluble TOC. From these results, it was revealed that solid state fermentation reactor using microbial additives can be used in composting process of organic wastes with broad C/N ratio.

유기 용매에 추출되는 유리형의 홍국 색소를 보다 많이 얻기 위하여 Monascus anka의 균주를 자연 및 자외선 변이균주에서 선발하고 배양 조건을 탐색하였다. 균주 N3를 Lin's medium에서 진탕 배양, Nishikawa's medium에서 정치 배양 및 진탕 배양하여 균체성장과 색소생성에 소요되는 시간, 유기용매에 추출되는 색소의 양을 비교하여 보았다. Lin's medium에서의 액침 배양에서는 수용성 색소가 우세하게 생성되는 반면 Nishikawa's medium에서의 정치 배양에서는 보다 많은 유기용매 가용성의 색소를 얻을 수 있었다. 한편 탄소원으로는 자당외에 에탄올이 가장 효과적이었다. Sterol 합성저해제를 처리하였을 때는 상당한 색소 형성의 증가를 볼 수 있었다. 이차원 TLC로써 아직 보고된 바 없는 색소들이 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 이 균주의 색소중 가장 다량으로 존재하는 황색소의 하나를 분리하였고 분광학적 방법으로 ankaflavin으로 동정하였다.

Chelating agents have been proposed to improve the efficiency of phytoextraction of heavy metal hyperaccumulator. However, little studies to elucidate mechanism of chelating agents to increase cadmium (Cd) extractability have been conducted. The objectives of this study were to evaluate effect of different chelating agents on Cd extractability and to determine mechanism of Cd mobilization affected by these agents. An arable soil was spiked with inorganic Cd ($CdCl_2$) to give a total Cd concentration of $20mgCdkg^{-1}$. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid (CA) were selected and mixed with the arable soil at the rates of 0 and $5mmolkg^{-1}$. The mixture soils were incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks in dark condition. Concentration of F1 Cd fractions (water soluble) significantly increased with addition of EDTA but did not changed with addition of CA. Especially; concentration of F5 Cd fractions (residual) significantly increased with addition of CA. Increase in water soluble with EDTA might be attributed to complexation of Cd and EDTA. Dissolved organic carbon concentration significantly increased with EDTA addition, but did not with CA implying that considerable amount of CA was decomposed to inorganic carbon by microorganism. Log activity of carbonate ($CO_3{^{2-}}$) which might be generated from CA increased with addition of CA. Increase in residual Cd fraction might be due to precipitation of Cd as $CdCO_3$. As a result, EDTA was effective in increasing Cd extractability, by contrast CA had significant effect in reducing Cd extractability.

Fertigation, which has been introduced in agricultural fields since 1990, has been widely practiced in upland fields as well as in plastic film houses as part of the crop production system. In accordance with demands in the agricultural sector, a huge number of scientific studies on fertigation have been conducted worldwide. Moreover, with a combination of advanced technologies such as big-data, machine learning, etc., fertigation is positioned as an indispensable tool to achieve sustainable crop production and to enhance nutrient and water use efficiency. In this review, we focused on providing valuable information in terms of crop production and nutrient/water use efficiency. A variety of fertigation studies have described that enhancement of crop production did not differ relative to conventional method or slightly increased. In contrast, fertigation significantly improved nutrient/water use efficiency, with a reduction in use ranging from 20 to 50%. Water-soluble organic resources such as livestock manure and agricultural byproducts also have been identified as useful resources like chemical fertilizers. Furthermore, the initial irrigation point was generally recommended in a range of -10 - -40 kPa, although the point differed according to the crop and crop growth stage. From this review, we suggest that fertigation, which is closely integrated with advanced technology, could be a leading technology to attain not only food security but also carbon neutrality via improvement of nutrient/water use efficiency.

In this study, the (phosphorous removal) the characteristics of phosphorous removal due to (the iron compound precipitated) iron compound precipitation by iron electrolysis in (the anoxic. oxic process) anoxic and oxic processes (equipped with the) in an iron precipitation device were analyzed. During the device operation period, the average concentration of BOD, T-N, and T-P were 219.9 mg/l, 54.6 mg/l and 6.71 mg/l, respectively. The BOD/$COD_{Cr}$ ratio was 0.74, and the BOD/T-N and BOD/T-P ratios were 4.0 and 32.8, respectively. The removal rate of (the organic matters) organic matter (BOD and $COD_{Cr}$) was very high at 91.6% or higher, and that of nitrogen was 80.5%. The phosphorous concentration (of the final) in the treated water was 0.43 mg/l (0.05-0.74 mg/l) on average, and the removal efficiency was high at 90.8%. The soluble T-P concentrations in (an) the anoxic reactor, oxic reactor (II) and final treated water were 1.99 mg/l, 0.79 mg/l and 0.43 mg/l, respectively, which indicated that the phosphorous concentration in the treated water was very low. Regardless of the changes in the concentrations of (organic matters) organic matter, nitrogen and phosphorous in the influent, the quality of the treated water was relatively stable and high. The removal rate of T-P somewhat increased with the increase in the F/M ratio in the influent, and it also linearly increased in proportion to the T-P loading rate in the influent. In the treatment process used in this study, phosphorous was removed (using) by the precipitated iron oxide. Therefore, the consumption of organic (matters) matter for biological phosphorus removal was minimized and (most of the organic matters were) was mostly used as the organic carbon source for the denitrification in the anoxic reactor. This (can be an economic) treatment process (without the need for the supply of additional organic matters) is economic and does not require the supply of additional organic matter.

Enzymatic syntheses of water soluble Bakuchiol glycosides were carried out in di-isopropyl ether organic media using amyloglucosidase from Rhizopus mold. The reactions were carried out under conventional reflux conditions and in supercritical $CO_2$ atmospheric conditions. Out of the eleven carbohydrate molecules employed for the reaction, D-glucose, D-ribose and D-arabinose gave glycosides in yields of 9.0% to 51.4% under conventional reflux conditions. Under supercritical $CO_2$ atmosphere (100 bar pressure at 50 ${^{\circ}C}$), bakuchiol formed glycosides with Dglucose, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-fructose, D-ribose, D-arabinose, D-sorbitol and D-mannitol in yields ranging from 9% to 46.6%. Out of the bakuchiol glycosides prepared, 6-O-(6-D-fructofruranosyl)bakuchiol showed the best antioxidant (1.4 mM) and ACE inhibitory activities (0.64 mM).
