Polyhydroxyalkanoates[PHAs] are the polyester of hydroxyalkanoates(HAs) synthesized by numerous bacteria as an intracellular carbon and energy storage compound and accumulated as granules in the cytoplasm of the cells under unbalanced growth condition in the presence of excess carbon source. Even though PHAs have been recognized as good candidates for biodegradable plastics, their high price compared with conventional plastics has limited their use in a wide mange of applications. To reduce the high production cost of PHAs, many group of scientists have devoted much efforts to improve productivity by employing various microorganisms and by developing efficient culture techniques. The strategies of producing PHAs to a high concentration with high productivity and their potential applications are reviewed.

Aspheric optical elements can provide an advantage in the design of optical system that require high performance and small size. The main disadvantage of high volume production of aspheric optical elements is very high cost. In this paper, we suggest new technology of high volume production process using replication process. The replication is a thin film of UV cured resin on a solid substrate blank(polymer substrate) with aspheric surface.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of high temperature on the stem, leaf and grain of barley during the ripening period and to provide information for the development of high-temperature cultivation techniques and adaptive varieties. We used an artificial climate control facility, to provide a temperature $3^{\circ}C$ higher than the normal average temperature during the ripening stage. Although the maximum rate of starch synthesis was increased at high temperature by approximately 11%, the starch content was decreased, because the period of starch synthesis ended 4 days earlier. As in the case of starch synthesis, the expression of genes related to starch synthesis was increased at the early ripening stage in the high temperature treatment, however, the duration of expression tended to decrease rapidly. Furthermore, the partitioning rate of assimilation products in the panicle increased to a greater extent in the high temperature treatment than in the control. In contrast, for the stem and leaf, the partitioning rate of assimilation products decreased more rapidly in the high temperature treatment than in the control. On the basis of these results, it can be considered that the translocation rate of assimilation products increased to a greater extent in the high temperature treatment than in the control at the early ripening stage. These results indicate that the decrease in grain weight at high temperature during the ripening stage is attributable to an increase in the speed of starch synthesis at high temperature, but the increase in ripening speed does not compensate for the shortening of the ripening period. Finally to develop varieties and cultivation techniques suited to high temperature, we need to focus on physiological characteristics related to the duration of starch synthesis.

Recently, production and application of ortho image using high resolution image are increasing by acquired high quality data from development of photogrammetry and IT technology. Generally, An ortho image has some problems that cannot remove completely to relief displacement about cultural feature like building and overpass because of performance rectification using DEM. Therefore, in this study, I generated DSM each of four experiment cases for production of true ortho image which is removed relief displacement of building using digital photogrammetry technique and LiDAR data, presented the plan of DSM production that is appropriate to production true ortho image by analyzing an accuracy after manufacture an ortho image each of DSM.

Fine chemical production must assure high-standard product quality as well as characterized as multi-product production in small volumes. Installing high-precision batch distillation is one of the common elements in the successful manufacturing of fine chemicals, and the importance of the process operation strategy with quality assurance cannot be overemphasized. In this study, we investigate the optimal operation strategy and production planning of a sequential multi-purpose plants consisting of batch processes and batch distillation with unlimited intermediate storage. We formulated this problem as an MILP model. A mixed-integer linear programming model is developed based on the time slot, which is used to determine the production sequence and the production path of each batch. Illustrative examples show the effectiveness of the approach.

Samsung Electronics has developed high performance velocity and position controllers for induction motors, and succeeded in mass production for the first time in Korea. Dynamic performance and final control accuracy of the controller are equivalent to those of AC servo motor controller. At present, we adopted the controller as spindle motor drive for Samsung CNC systems, and expect its wide use in industry as general purpose velocity and position controller for induction motor.

In order to screen dextranase with high dextranolytic activity from microbial origins, dextranase producing fungal isolates were isolated from soil of the Taeion area. 197 strains with dextranolytic activities were isolated, out of which 3 strains with high dextranolytic activities were selected in the first screening. A strain (GR-98) with a best dextranolytic activity was selected in the second screening. The strain was identified to be similiar Aspergillus ustus by the morphological and cultural characteristics. The optimum culture temperature and initial pH for the dextranase production of the strain was 30$\circ$C and 7.0, respectively. The optimum culture medium was composed of 2% dextran, 0.3% KNO$_{3}$, 0.05% K$_{2}$HPO$_{4}$, 0.02% MgSO$_{4}$-7H$_{2}$O, 0.05% KC1, and 2.5 $\mu$g/ml pyridoxamine, and the enzyme production was maximum when the strain was subcultured at 30$\circ$C for 7 days.

The cone and seed production of pitch pine were investigated at two areas(songtan and yangdong) located in kyounggi province. Bymeans of formulas derived from both the regression analysis between the number of seeds and cone length, and between d2·h and number of cones, cone and seed production were estimated. The correlation coefficient value between the number of seeds and cone length was high(r=0.6134). The cone and seed production of pitch pine has a high relationship to the variables-dbh, tree aga , and height of tree. The cone production of pitchpine forest estimated by the formula log(o+s+y+c)=0.581 log(d2·h)-1.317 was 965,832/ha in 1985∼1986, 850,852/ha in 1986∼1987 at songtan, and 462,794/ha in 1985∼1986,916,965/ha in 1986∼1987 at yangdong.

The effects of amplifying the gluconeogenic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase of Escherichia coli ($pck_{Ec}$) on succinic acid production in E. coli were examined under anaerobic condition. No significant increase in succinic acid production was observed in E. coli overexpressing the $pck_{Ec}$ gene without supplementing $NaHCO_{3}$ or $MgCO_{3}$. On the other hand, succinic acid production was enhanced as the $NaHCO_{3}$ concentration was increased. When 20 g/l of $NaHCO_{3}$ was added, succinic acid production in recombinant E. coli overexpressing PCK was 2.2-fold higher than that observed in the wild-type strain. It was concluded that the gluconeogenic $pck_{Ec}$ overexpression enabled E. coli to enhance succinic acid production only under the high bicarbonate supplementation condition.

The starch industry in Korea had been based on sweet potato and potato for long time to produce starches which were used for mainly starch noodle such as cellophane noodle. Because of the poor storage stability, high price, and fluctuation of production by year and year of potatoes, the raw material for the production of starch had been changed to corn in 1970s. Along with this, the mass production system had been established, which enabled the production of various starch-related products including modified starches for food, textile, paper, and other industrial uses, starch sweetners, high fructose corn syrup, and gelatinized starch. In this paper, a brief background of corn industry in Korea has been described. The production of starch from corn has been emphasized and the future of corn industry in relation with GMO has been suggested.
