A synthesis process for PZT powder using NH$_3$ gas as a precipitator in a bubble column reactor was experimentally successful in develope a production process of Piezoelectric ceramic PZT powder. Also as a reaction by coprecipitation, the crystalized PZT ceramic powder at the condition of over pH 9 could be attained. The time needed for reaction on the condition of NH$_3$ gas flow rate=0.5 1/min, Ar gas flow rate=2.0 1/min, Feed flow rate=2.33 ml /sec was less than five minutes, so it could synthesize PZT powder for such a few moments. And the synthesized PZT powder was 0.17${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in diameter on an average.

In the present study, we propose new type of a spinning disk reactor(SDR) with high performance and very convenient structure to make a large scale equipment from lab-scale than the conventional one. A split-disk experimental equipment, based on new type of spinning disk reactor, has been developed to generate an energy to break a bulk of injected gas into smaller gas bubble. Several cases of an experimental observation make it to confirm that a bulk of injecting gas could be continuously break into smaller bubbles. It shows the feasibility to make a scale-up of SDR by using the characteristic of Taylor-Proudman column in rotating flow. A theoretical study on single phase liquid flow is given to predict a liquid induced shear stress, which make the present study to be self-containment.

The mushroom Lentinus lepideus was used to produce mycelial as well as soluble polysaccharides in bioreactor cultures. To determine optimal submerged culture conditions, both growth characteristics and water soluble polysaccharides production were compared among four different types of bioreactor and culture conditions. For the production of mycelial biomass, the following bioreactors were proven to be effective in decreasing order: an external-loop type air-lift bioreactor (ETAB; 7g/l), a balloon type air bubble bioreactor (BTBB; 6.2g/l), a stirrer type bioreactor (STB; 6g/l), and a column type air bubble bioreactor (CTBB; 5g/l). Maxiaml production of water soluble exopolysaccharides (EPS; 0.62g/l) and endopolysaccharides (PPS; 7.7%) could also be obtained from BTBB. The mycelial biomass increased with increase in glucose concentration from 15g/l to 75g/l in the media. In contrast, PPS contents in the cells decreased with increase in glucose concentration in the media, showing the highest PPS content (7%) at 15g/l. Among different medium feeding types, fed-batch culture based on concentration control in media (10g/l) produced higher mycelia than fed-batch culture based on volume control of media (5.8g/l) or batch culture (3.4g/l). EPS production was also higher in fed-batch culture based on medium concentration control than that in other feeding types.

The three speices of miroalgae (Chlorella vulgaris, Dunaliella salina and Porphyridium purpureum) were immobilized in Ca-alginate capsules as a basic study for development of economic cultivation process, and then were cultivated in an air-bubble column bioreactor. Under the batch culture of aerobic conditions, the thickness of the capsule membrane and $CO_2$ supply did not affect the growth of the immobilized microalga, Chlorella vulgaris. Cell concentration of immobilized microalgae in the capsule was higher than those of imobilized microalgae in beads and free cells. The cell concentration of microencapsulated Dunaliella salina was greater about 5 times than that of free cells. Based on these results, it is concluded that the application of microencapsulation technology to the culture of microalgae was an effective method for high-density cultivation.

Advanced oxidation process involving $O_3/H_2O_2$ was used to eliminate 1,4-dioxane and to enhance the biodegradability of dioxane-contaminated water. Oxidation process was carried out in a bubble column reactor under different pH and $H_2O_2$ concentrations. The removal efficiencies of 1,4-dioxane were investigated at hydrogen peroxide concentration between 40 and 120 mg/L. At the same pH, removal efficiencies of 1,4-dioxane increased with increasing initial $H_2O_2$ concentration. There was a linear relationship between initial concentration of $H_2O_2$ and the amount of consumed $O_3$. It was observed that the high $H_2O_2$ concentration accelerated the generation of hydroperoxy ions(${HO_2}^-$) and hydroxyl radicals($OH{\cdot}$). Hydrogen peroxide enhanced the decomposition of 1,4-dioxane and the biodegradability of the solution.

최근 바이오디젤의 원료로 미세조류가 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. 미세조류는 물, 이산화탄소와 태양광을 이용해 광합성 성장이 가능하며, 지질(오일) 성분이 풍부하여 바이오디젤의 원료로 이용할 수 있다. 미세조류는 단위 면적당 오일 생산량이 곡물류의 50-100배 이상이며, 이산화탄소를 기질로 이용하므로 온실가스 직접 저감이 가능하다. 또한 배양시 비경작지나 황무지를 사용할 수 있으므로 기존 식용작물과 경쟁하지 않으며, 하수, 해수, 폐수 등 다양한 물자원을 이용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고농도 $CO_2$에 내성을 지닌 Chlorella sp. KR-1을 대상으로 1 L 규모 기포탑 광생물반응기에서 균체 성장 및 지질(바이오오일) 합성에 대한 $CO_2$ 농도, 가스 공급속도, 질산염 농도 등 환경 및 영향 조건의 영향을 조사하였다. 가스 공급속도 0.4 L/min에서 $CO_2$ 농도를 0.03-20% 범위에서 조사하였을 때 최대 균체성장은 $CO_2$ 10%에서 관찰되었다. 균체내 지방산 함량은 $CO_2$ 농도 0.03%에서 가장 낮았고, 5-20% 범위에서는 $CO_2$ 농도 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 가스 공급속도를 0.2 L/min에서 0.8 L/min으로 증가시켰을 때 최대 균체농도는 0.6-0.8 L/min의 범위에서 관찰되었고, 생체내 최대 지방산 함량은 0.4 L/min에서 관찰되었다. Nitrate 농도 1-20 mM 범위에서 최종 균체농도는 nitrate 농도 증가에 따라 10mM까지 증가하였으나 그 이상에서는 증가하지 않았다. 반면 지방산 함량은 nitrate 농도 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 본 실험에서 얻은 최대 지방산 생산량은 1,100 mg/L이었으며, 주요 지방산은 C10:0(1.7%), C16:0(28.5%), C18:0(11%), C18:1n9c(25.9%), C18:2n6c(26.3%), C18:3n3(6.6%)이었다. 현재 100 L 규모 광생물반응기에서 석탄발전소 배가스($CO_2$ 12-15%, SOx 50ppm, NOx 100ppm)를 이용한 바이오오일 생산 실험이 진행 중이다.

Concrete exposed to severely low temperature below $-20^{\circ}C$ should be provided with proper heat supplying curing to protect the concrete from early frost damage at the time of pouring.meanwhile, so far, effective heat curingmethods of the concrete under severely low temperature are not well established in Korea. For this reason, the objective of this paper is to provide effective heat curingmethod of concrete exposed to severely low temperature to protect early frost damage by varying the combination of heat curingmaterial combinations. Temperature history,maturity development and core strength results are investigated. Fourmock-up specimens simulating slab, wall and column were prepared and heat insulation, heat supplying and both were applied. Test results indicate that the combination of quadruple layer bubble sheet(4BS) and embedding of heating cable has desirable performance for a slab, and heat supplying curing inside heat enclosure and heat generationmat also shows desirable performance for a wall, and for a column, use of EPS heat insulation has proper performance against early frost damage, which reaches $45^{\circ}D{\cdot}D$ and helps the concretemaintain above $0^{\circ}C$ within 3 days. Themethodsmentioned above are believed to be optimum protection from early frost damage of the concrete under $-20^{\circ}C$.

The objective of the present study was to improve the biomass productivity of newly isolated freshwater green microalga Parachlorella sp. This was accomplished by culture conditions optimization, including CO₂ concentration, superficial gas velocity, and light intensity, in 0.5 L bubble column photobioreactors. The supplied CO₂ concentration and gas velocity varied from 0.032% (air) to 10% and 0.02 m/s - 0.11 m/s, respectively, to evaluate their effects on growth kinetics. Next, to maximize the production rate of Parachlorella sp., a lumostatic operation based on a specific light uptake rate (q_e) was applied. From these results, the optimal CO₂ concentration in the supplied gas and the gas velocity were determined to be 5% and 0.064 m/s, respectively. For the lumostatic operation at 10.2 µmol/g/s, biomass productivity and photon yield showed significant increases of 83% and 66%, respectively, relative to cultures under constant light intensity. These results indicate that the biomass productivity of Parachlorella sp. can be improved by optimizing gas properties and light control as cell concentrations vary over time.

The effect of internal and shroud nozzle distributor to bubbling fluidized beds which has the size of $0.3m-ID{\times}2.4m-high$ column was modeled by CPFD (Computational Particle-Fluid Dynamics). Metal-grade silicon particles (MG-Si) were used as bed materials which have $d_p=149{\mu}m$, ${\rho}_p=2,325kg/m^3$ and $U_{mf}=0.02m/s$. Total bed inventory and static bed height were 75 kg and 0.8 m, respectively. Effect of vertical internal on the bubble rising velocity was investigated. Bubbles were split by internal when the axial position of the internal from the distributor, z = 0.45 m. Bed pressure drop and axial solid holdup were not affected by internal. However, in the case that axial distance of internal from distributor was too close to jet penetration length, bubbles were not separated and bypassed internal, and faster than without internal or z = 0.45 m.

The use of ozone in water and wastewater treatment systems has been known to be a process that is limited by mass transfer. The most effective way to overcome this limitation is to increase the interfacial area available for mass transfer by decreasing the size of the ozone gas bubbles that are dispersed in solution. Electrostatic spraying(ES) of ozone into water was investigated in this work as a method of increasing the rate of mass transfer of ozone into a solution and thereby increasing the rate of phenol oxidation. Results were obtained for ES at input power levels ranging from 0 to 4 kV and compared with two different pore-size bubble diffusers($10{\sim}15{\mu}m$ and $40{\sim}60{\mu}m$). It was determined that the rate of mass transfer could be increased by as much as 40% when the applied voltage was increased from 0 to 4 kV as a result of the smaller bubbles generated by ES. In addition, ES was shown to be more effective than the medium-pore-size($10{\sim}15{\mu}m$) bubble diffuser and the best results were achieved at low gas flow rates.
