A comparative study on response of a toxic compound thiocyanate ($SCN^-$) was carried out in continuous and fed batch moving bed reactor systems. Both systems had three sequential anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic reactors and operated at same hydraulic retention time. Feed $SCN^-$ was first increased from 600 mg/L to 1,000 mg/L for 3 days (shock 1) and then from 600 to 1,200 mg/L for 3 days (shock 2). In anaerobic continuous reactor, increase of effluent COD (chemical oxygen demand) due to shock load was only 2%, whereas in fed batch reactor it was 14%. In anoxic fed batch reactor recovery was partial in terms of $SCN^-$, phenol, COD and $NO{_3}{^-}$-N and $NO{_2}{^-}$-N removals and in continuous reactor complete recovery was possible. In both systems, inhibition was more significant on aerobic reactors than anaerobic and anoxic reactors. In aerobic reactors ammonia removal efficiency deteriorated and damage was irreversible. Present study showed that fed batch reactors showed higher substrate removal efficiency than continuous reactors during regular operation, but are more susceptible to toxic feed shock load and in nitrifying reactor damage was irreversible.

본 연구는 농가에서 사용하는 저류조, 연속 폭기조, 혐기성 정치식, 혐기성 교반식의 4가지 형태의 부숙조를 이용하여 액상 가축분 퇴비 부숙효율을 평가하기 위하여 수행하였다. 호기성 폭기조는 BOD 및 악취 제거율에서 혐기성 부숙방법보다 우수하였다. 반면에 질소는 초기농도의 47%가 손실되어 혐기성 부숙방법보다 심한 편이었다. 혐기성 부숙방법중 교반식과 정치식간에는 큰 차이는 인정되지 않았다. 그러나 혐기성 교반식이 정치식보다 대장균 제거율, 악취제거율은 더 높았으며, 질소 손실율은 더 낮게 나타났다. 농가에서 사용하는 저류조 형태의 부숙조는 혐기 또는 호기성 처리 방법보다 BOD, 대장균, 악취제거율등이 낮았다. 각 개별요인들의 효율을 종합 평가한 결과 액비 부숙효율은 혐기성 교반조>호기성 폭기조>무교반 혐기성조>저류조 순으로 높았다.

A mathematical model was developed for a continuous re-actor in which free radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) occurred. Elementary reactions considered in this study were initiation, propagation, termination, and chain transfers to monomer and solvent. The reactor model took into account the density change of the reactor contents and the gel effect. A control system was designed for a continuous reactor using extended Kalman filter (EKF) based non-linear model predictive controller (NLMPC) to control the conversion and the weight average molecular weight of the polymer product. Control input variables were the jacket inlet temperature and the feed flow rate. For the purpose of validation of the control strategy, on-line digital control experiments were conducted with densitometer and viscometer for the measurement of the polymer properties. Despite the com-plex and nonlinear features of the polymerization reaction system, the EKF based NLMPC performed quite satisfactorily for the property control of the continuous polymerization reactor.

K-carrageenan에 고정화시킨 Zymomonas mobilis를 이용한 연속적인 sorbitol 생산에 대하여 연구하였다. Toluene과 glutaraldehyde로 처리하여 투과성을 증대시킨 세포를 alginate나 chitin 고정화 공정에서 어느 정도의 효소활성을 보였으나 210시간 이상의 공정반응에서는 sorbitol 생성량이 감소되었다. 독성이 적고 투과성을 증가시키는 물질로서 toluene 대신 CTAB(Cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide)를 사용하였다. CTAB로 투과성을 증가시킨 세포를 k-carrageenan에 고정화하여 CSTR과 packed bed reactor를 이용하여 sorbitol 생산을 시도하였으며 CSTR보다도 (25일) packed bed reactor에서 (30일) 더 긴 시간 효소활성도가 유지되었다. Two-stage 연속공정에서는 희석비율이 (dilution rate, $h^{-1}$) 증가함에 따라서 sorbitol 생성률이 증가되었으며 희석비율 0.32 $h^{-1}$에서 첫번째와 두번째 반응조에서 각각 $15g/\ell-h,$ $22g/\ell-h의$ sorbitol 생성률을 얻었다. 0.32$h^{-1}$보다 높은 희석비율에서는 생성를이 감소되었다.

Characteristics of biological $CO_2$ fixation by Chlorella sp. HA-1 were investigated in a semi-continuous and series reactor system using an internally illuminated photobioreactor to overcome shortcomings of physicochemical technologies such as adsorption and membrane separation. High $CO_2$ fixation rate was achieved in the semi-continuous reactor system, in which the dilution ratios of the culture medium were controlled. The average $CO_2$ fixation rate was maintained almost constantly when the dilution ratio increased by 0.1 increment from the initial value of 0.5. The total removal efficiency of $CO_2$ was enhanced by employing a series reactor system. The average $CO_2$ fixation rate increased until 4.013 g $CO_2\;day^{-1}$ in a series operation of four reactors, compared to 0.986 g $CO_2\;day^{-1}$ in a batch operation mode. The total $CO_2$ fixation rate was proportional to the number of reactors used in the series reactor system. In the series reactor system of semi-continuous operation, a large amount of $CO_2$ was removed continuously for 30 days. These results showed that the present reactor systems are efficient and economically feasible for a biological $CO_2$ fixation.

VOC(Volatile Organic Compound) removal characteristics in continuous flow reactors have been numerically investigated. The photocatalytic reaction have been simulated with the binding constant and the reaction rate constant obtained from experimental data for the constant-volume batch reactor, and then VOC abatement in continuous flow reactors with the same conditions as those of batch reactor has been analyzed. The standard 4\kappa-\varepsilon$ model and mass conservation equation have been employed for numerical calculation, and heterogeneous reaction rate has been used in terms of the boundary condition of the conservation equation. in the case of the continuous flow reactor, reaction characteristics have been estimated with various inlet velocities and with different number of baffles. The result shows that the concentration distribution and flow patterns are strongly affected by the inlet velocity, and that with the increased inlet velocity, VOC removal rate is increased, while removal efficiency is decreased. This result may be useful in the design of reactors with improved VOC removal efficiency.

methylethylketone(MEK)의 광분해 특성을 연속식 단일관형태의 광촉매반응기를 이용하여 연구하였다. 연속식 광촉매반응기에 적용된 주요 반응변수는 MEK의 초기농도, 광세기, 장기운전의 영향이었다. MEK의 주입농도가 증가할수록 광분해 효율은 감소하였으며, 광분해 감소의 폭은 높은 유속에서 더욱 두드러졌다. 동일한 체류시간의 조건에서 광반응기의 직경과 UV램프의 파장이 증가할수록 MEK제거효율은 감소하였다. 연속식 광촉매반응기를 120시간 연속적으로 운전하여도 MEK 제거효율에서의 감소는 없었다.

Many enzymes require the participation of readily dissociable coenzymes as NAD for thir catalytic activities. The continuous utilization of the enzymes requires the retention and regeneration of the coenzymes. For this purpose, several kinds of macromolecular NAD derivatives have been prepared by covalently attaching NAD to watersoluble polymers. We have prepared poly (ethylene glycol)-bound NAD (PEG-NAD) by coupling N$\^$6/-(2-carboxyethyl)-NAD to one terminal of ${\gamma}$ $\omega$-diaminoly (ethylene glycol) (Mr 3000) with water-soluble carbodiimide. PED-NAD thus obtained has one NAD moiety located at a terminal of the linear, flexible and hydrophilic chain of poly (ethylene glycol). PED-NAD has good coenzyme activity for various dehydrogenases and is applicable in a continuous enzyme reactor. To use these macromolecular NAD derivatives in an enzyme reactor, it si necessary to understand the behavior of the system in which the reactions of dehydrogenases are coupled by the recycling of the NAD derivative. We investigated the kinetic properties of a continuous enzyme reactor containing lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and PEG-NAD. The steady-state behavior of the enzyme reactor is explained by a simple kinetic model.

Model predictive control algorithm requires a relevant model of the system to be controlled. Unfortunately, the first principle model describing a polymerization reaction system has a large number of parameters to be estimated. Thus there is a need for the identification and control of a polymerization reactor system by using available input-output data. In this work, the polynomial auto-regressive moving average (ARMA) models are employed as the input-output model and combined into the nonlinear model predictive control algorithm based on the successive linearization method. Simulations are conducted to identify the continuous styrene polymerization reactor system. The input variables are the jacket inlet temperature and the feed flow rate whereas the output variables are the monomer conversion and the weight-average molecular weight. The polynomial ARMA models obtained by the system identification are used to control the monomer conversion and the weight-average molecular weight in a continuous styrene polymerization reactor It is demonstrated that the nonlinear model predictive controller based on the polynomial ARMA model tracks the step changes in the setpoint satisfactorily. In conclusion, the polynomial ARMA model is proven effective in controlling the continuous styrene polymerization reactor.
