FET-type dissolved oxygen sensor has the Pt working electrode around the pH-ISFET. Appling a voltage to the working electrode, the hydrogen ion which is proportional to the dissolved oxygen concentration occurs around the pH sensing gate and we can measure the dissolved oxygen concentration by detecting pH concentration through the pH-ISFET. In this paper, a dissolved oxygen measurement system using FET-type dissolved oxygen sensor array which adopt a specific algorithm to enhance the reliability has been developed and we compared its performance with the commercial dissolved oxygen measurement system.

In previous studies, solely ferric (Fe³⁺) and calcium (Ca²⁺) ions were commonly used for removal of PO₄-P (considered as T-P in this study) in wastewater via chemical precipitation. Herein, the removal of total phosphorus (T-P) in wastewater was performed using various mineral and lime dissolved solutions. The dissolution kinetics of different minerals (feldspar, olivine, elvan, illite, sericite, and zeolite) and lime was compared and used their solutions for T-P removal of real wastewater. The highest T-P removal (almost 90%) was obtained by the lime dissolved solution and followed by zeolite, illite, feldspar, and others. We observed a significant co-relationship (R of 0.96) between the amount of initial Ca²⁺ and T-P removal. This was induced by formation of hydroxyapatite-like mineral via Ca-P precipitation reaction at high pH solution. Furthermore, additional removal of suspended solid (SS) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) was achieved by only lime dissolved solution. Finally, the lime-feldspar dissolved solutions were prepared at different ratios (10-50%), which showed a successive T-P removal up to two times by samples of 40 and 50%.

Dissolved oxygen, pH and cell concentration have been online monitored in cultivation processes with Escherichia coli by using a $MABOOMS^{TM}$ (microplate-based bioreactor with optical online monitoring systems). Fluorescent sensing membranes containing Ru ${(dpp)_3}^{2+}$ or HPTS were prepared with GA sol-gel matrix and coated into a well of a 24-well microplate. Fluorescence intensity was measured and correlated to the dissolved oxygen or pH. Cell concentrations were also online monitored by measuring optical reflectance at 650 nm. A well of a 24-well microplate could also be divided into 4 parts, each of which was coated with fluorescent sensing membranes for the detection of dissolved oxygen or pH. The 24-well microplate coated with fluorescent sensing membranes or a 4-divided sensing membrane. was used to online monitor the dissolved oxygen, pH and cell concentration during E. coli cultivations. The online monitoring results showed the characteristics of cell growth in cultivation processes very well.

Reactions between gold (Au) surface plasmon resonance (SPR) chips and bovine serum albumin (BSA) dissolved in solutions of different pH were investigated. The charge on the BSA depends on the pH of the solution in which it is dissolved. Thus, dissolving BSA in different pH solutions resulted in different charges of BSA. Among the BSA dissolved in solutions with pH 4.01, 7.4, and 10.01, the SPR response was the highest for BSA dissolved in the solution of pH 4.01. To eliminate the response variation owing to the difference in the refractive indices of the solutions, phosphate buffered saline (PBS) was injected into the system after the reaction of BSA with the Au SPR chip had happened. In this case too, the BSA dissolved in the solution with pH 4.01 exhibited the highest response. This may be attributed to the non-uniform distribution of ionic patches on the BSA, which can induce electrostatic attraction to the surface even though BSA has a positive charge at pH 4.01, and the absolute values of the net charge of BSA at pH 4.01 and 7.4 were very close.

The Effects of operating parameters such as initial pH, gaseous ozone concentration, supplied gas flow rate on dissolved ozone concentration and phenol degradation in ozone contact reactor were investigated. Dissolved ozone concentrations were saturated to constant values after a certain ozone contact time. The saturation values were influenced by experimental parameters. Dissolved ozone concentration decreased with the increase of initial pH because the ozone is unstable in high pH regions. The gaseous ozone concentration in a constant gas supply affected the saturation concentration of dissolved ozone and the injection rate of gas with a constant ozone concentration determined the rate to reach dissolved ozone saturation. Effects of operating parameters on phenol degradation were closely related with those of parameters on dissolved ozone concentration. Phenol degradation was enhanced by the increase of initial pH, because the degradation of dissolved ozone gave birth to free radicals which have much higher reactivity with phenol. Increase of gaseous ozone concentration and gas flow rate promoted the phenol degradation through the generation of dissolved ozone which plays the role in phenol degradation. The injection of methanol deteriorated the phenol degradation through the scavenging effect on OH radicals.

We investigated the interspecific competition between the harmful dinoflagellate Cochlodinium polykrikoides and diatom Skeletonema sp. based on the utilization and uptake of dissolved organic nutrients. C. polykrikoides and S. costatum were able to grow using dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) and dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) as well as dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP). This result indicates that the utilization of dissolved organic nutrients may play a role in surviving strategy in the DIN or DIP-limited environments. The half-saturation constants (Ks) of urea and glycerophosphate (glycero-P) calculated from uptake kinetics experiment of C. polykrikoides was lower than those of Skeletonema sp. This result indicates that Skeletonema sp. have higher affinity for dissolved organic nutrients, such as urea and glycero-P, than C. polykrikoides. Although Skeletonema sp. have higher affinity of dissolved organic nutrients, C. polykrikoides could effectively uptake for urea and glycero-P at sub-saturating nutrient concentrations (${\alpha}$ (${\rho}_{max}/Ks$) of C. polykrikoides was higher than Skeletonema sp.. Therefore, C. polykrikoides by utilization and effectively uptake of dissolved organic nutrients under monoculture may have an advantageous position in the interspecific competition with Skeletonema sp. in the low nutrient environments.

This study proposes a pH-dissolved-oxygen monitoring system using 8-HydroxyPyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid Trisodium Salt (HPTS) and tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)Ruthenium(II) chloride (Ru_dpp). Commercial water-quality sensors are electrochemical devices that require frequent calibration and cleaning, are subject to high maintenance costs, and have difficulties conducting measurements in real-time. The proposed pH-dissolved-oxygen monitoring system selects a thin-film sensing layer to measure the change in fluorescence intensity. This change in fluorescence intensity is based on reactions with hydrogen ions in an aqueous solution at a given pH and specific amount of dissolved oxygen. The change in fluorescence intensity is then measured using light-emitting diodes and photodiodes in response to HPTS and Ru_dpp. This method enables the development of a relatively small, inexpensive, and real-time measureable water-quality measurement system.

The purpose of this study is to analyze characteristics of water quality factor scientifically and develop the multiple regression model predicting dissolved oxygen to save periodic replacement costs for dissolved oxygen sensor. Correlation analysis using the environmental data obtained from 2 different land-based fish farms of the Geogeum-do, Geheung-gun coastal area during the periods from November 2008 to January 2009 shows that water temperature was negatively correlated with dissolved oxygen and pH butpH was positively correlated with salinity and dissolved oxygen. The information of Keumho fish farm in 2009 is presented by the tables which are monthly statistics of water quality factors and seasonable difference by the Duncan's post-test. Also we developed multiple regression model predicting dissolved oxygen, the usefulness of which was verified by the comparison graph between estimates and actual observations. The developed regression model shows that seawater temperature and salinity give negative affect to dissolved oxygen while pH gives positive affect to it. Lastly the seawater temperature has much higher explanatory power than pH factor.

An optical sensing membrane has been fabricated to measure the concentration of dissolved oxygen(DO) and pH value simultaneously. It has employed HPTS as a pH sensitive dye and a ruthenium(II) complex as a DO sensitive dye. The sensing membrane has been applied to wells in a 24-well microtiter plate. Using the 24-well microtiter plate the concentrations of dissolved oxygen and pH values have been on-line monitored during the cultivations of E.coli DH5${\alpha}$, B.cereus 318 and P.pastoris X-33. On-line monitoring of DO and pH in microorganism cultivation processes showed good performance of the sensing membrane containing 5 mM HPTS and 2 or 5 mg/mL Rudpp.
