The effects of substrate concentration, enzyme concentration, reaction temperature, and water content were investigated in intramolecular esterification. This study used cyclohexane as organic solvent, power lipase as enzyme, and benzyl alcohol and octanoic acid as substrate. The initial reaction rate was found to be proportional to enzyme concentration; followed Michaelis-Menten equation for octanoic acid; and was inhibited by benzyl alcohol . The observed initial reaction rate first increased, then decreased with increasing reaction temperature, giving rise to the maximum rate at 20$\circ$. The drop in the reaction rate at higher temperature was to partition equilibrium change of substrate between organic solvent and hydration layer of enzyme molecule in addition to the deactivation by enzyme denaturation. Water layer surrounding enzyme molecule seemed to activate in organic solvent and the realistic reaction was done in the water layer. In the enzymatic reaction in organic solvent, the initial reaction rate was influenced by partition quilibrium of substrate, so the optimum condition of substrate concentration, enzyme concentration, reaction temperature, and water content would give a good design tool.

The effects of environmental conditions, initial dissolved oxygen concentrations, pH, and the presence of electron carrier vitamin B$_{12}$ , on the reduction rate of TNT by Fe$^{0}$ was Quantitatively analyzed using a batch reactor. In all experiments, TNT reduction was best described with a first order reaction and the reduction rate decreased with the increase in the initial DO concentration. However, the specific reaction rate did not decrease linearly with the increase in the initial DO concentration. In the presence of HEPES buffer 0.2 and 2.0 mM(pH 5.7$\pm$0.2), the specific reaction rate increased more than 5.8 times, which showed reduction rate is rather significantly influenced by the pH of the solution. To test the possibility of reaction rate enhancement, well-known electron carrier(or mediator), vitamin B$_{12}$ has augmented besides Fe$^{0}$ . In the presence of 8.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/L of vitamin B$_{12}$ , the specific reaction rate increased as much as 14.6 times. The results indicate that the addition of trace amount of vitamin B$_{12}$ can be a promising rate controlling option for the removal of organics using a Fe$^{0}$ filled permeable reactive barrier.

Characteristics of the esterification reaction between free fatty acid in rice bran oil and methanol was investigated in the presence of catalysts, such as PTS(p-toluene sulfonic acid), Amberlyst 15 dry and SCX(silica gel based strong cation exchange resin). While reaction temperature was kept constant at $65^{\circ}C$, initial feed content of free fatty acid was varied from 100% to 1% by addition of pure free fatty acid which was previously made from rice bran oil. Also, the effect of mole ratio of methanol to fatty acid on the final conversion was examined. When esterification of pure free fatty acid was catalyzed by several acids, final conversions were increased in order of Amberlyst 15 dry, SCX and PTS. Using PTS catalyst, initially the reaction proceeded in homogeneous 2nd oder reaction mechanism. However, phase of reaction mixture changed from homogeneous to heterogeneous along the reaction time and then reaction rate was retarded by mass transfer resistance of methanol. Final conversion of free fatty acid in reaction mixture was depended on initial feed content of free fatty acid, and had maximum value at 30% of initial feed free fatty acid content for all kinds of catalysts used. And the final conversion was increased with mole ratio of methanol by the improvement of reaction rate. When initial feed free fatty acid content below 10% and the reaction was catalyzed by PTS, concentration of free fatty acid in reaction mixture was increased in the middle of reaction time by hydrolysis of triglyceride in reaction mixture. Also, if silica gel was added into the reaction mixture which had initial feed free fatty acid content below 50%, final conversion was increased by the adsorption of moisture produced. The SCX catalyst made the esterification reaction of free fatty acid to progress like in case of PTS catalyst. However, when initial feed free fatty acid content below 10%, concentration of free fatty acid in. reaction mixture was decreased monotonically and not increased in the middle of reaction time on the contrary to the case of PTS. Thus, SCX catalyst accomplished more high value of final conversion than PTS catalyst for the initial feed fatty acid content range from 50% to 5% In case of initial feed free fatty acid content of 1% and mole ratio of methanol was 2, concentration of free fatty acid in reaction mixture increased over the initial feed free fatty acid content for all kind of catalysts used. Although SCX catalyst was added into reaction mixture which had 1% of initial feed fatty acid content, final conversion was hardly raised by mole ratio of methanol.

This study examined the effects of particle size on characteristics of cement by controlling the particle size of commercial cement. Through a size adjustment, the cement has increasing more of particles that are less than $10{\mu}m$ in size so the initial reaction time has been shortened as a result of improvement in the early hydration reaction. Additionally, it showed a great characteristics of strength from the early age and the initial hydration heat has been increased as well. In the upper and middle parts cements, the initial hydration reaction rate contribution is high with the $10{\mu}m$ compared to original cement. So the initial hydration reaction rate is improved and as a result, it also showed relatively high hydration heat as well. Additionally, adiabatic temperature also showed an increase rate in the results.

The removal capacity of zero-valent iron for Cr(Ⅵ) was evaluated using batch kinetic tests. The rate constants for zero-valent iron dramatically increased as initial Cr(Ⅵ) concentration decreased. Generally, the reaction rates of Cr(Ⅵ) with zero-valent iron were faster than that of a biotic degradation of Cr(Ⅵ), and furthermore the reaction rates were inversely proportional to the initial Cr(Ⅵ) concentrations. After certain reaction time elapsed. no further decrease of Cr(Ⅵ) was observed, indicating a loss of iron reactivity. The loss of iron reactivity was primarily due to the passivation of iron surfaces with iron-Cr precipitates, but the reactivity of iron was recovered by adding iron-reducing bacteria. Even though the addition of bacteria itself removed Cr(Ⅵ), the combination of iron-reducing bactera and oxidized iron significantly enhanced the reaction rate for Cr(Ⅵ) removal. The results from column tests also confirmed that the innoculation of iron-reducing bacteria to the column containing completely oxidized iron partially enhanced the recovery of the iron reactivity.

The photocatalytic decolorization of Rhodamine B (RhB) was studied using immobilized $TiO_2$ and fluidized bed reactor. Immobilized $TiO_2$(length: 1$\~$2 mm, width: 1$\~$3 mm, thickness: 0.5$\~$2 mm) onto silicone sealant was employed as the photocatalyst and a 30 W germicidal lamp was used as the light source and the reactor volume was 4.8 L. The effects of parameters such as the amounts of photocatalyst, initial concentration, initial pH, superficial velocity, $H_2O_2$ and anion additives. ($NO_3^{-},\;SO_4^{2-},\;Cl^{-},\;CO_3^{2-}$) The results showed that the optimum dosage of the immobilized $TiO_2$ were 87.0 g/L. Initial removal rate of RhB of the immobilized $TiO_2$ was 1.5 times higher than that of the powder $TiO_2$ because of the adsorption onto the surface of immobilized $TiO_2$ In the conditions of acidic pH, initial reaction rate was increased slowly and reaction time was shorted. The effect of anion type on the reaction rate was not much.

The adsorption features of malachite green onto activated carbon have been investigated for its treatment from aqueous solution. The influential factors were examined the initial concentration of malachite green, reaction temperature, and pH. Under experimental conditions, adsorption equilibrium of malachite green was attained within 2 hr after the adsorption started. The adsorption reaction of malachite green followed the pseudo-second order rate model, and the adsorption rate constants(k2) decreased with increasing initial concentrations of malachite green. Adsorption behavior of malachite green on activated carbon was found to follow the Freundlich model well in the initial adsorbate concentration range. With increase in temperature, the adsorbed amount of malachite green at equilibrium increased, which indicate that the adsorption reaction was endothermic reaction. Thermodynamic parameters for malachite green adsorption reaction were estimated at varying temperatures, and in the pH range of 2-10, adsorption of malachite green increased.

불완전 분리의 실질적인 분리투과 특성을 근거로 하는 모사모델을 이용하여 투과증발 막촉진 에스터화 반응의 실질적인 거동을 연구하였다. 막의 분리효율, 막의 물제거 능력을 모델에 포함시킴으로써 반응모사를 통하여 이들이 막촉진반응에 어떻게 영향을 끼치는지를 체계적으로 관찰할 수 있었다. 막을 통한 비완전분리가 일어날 경우에 초기 반응물 몰비율이 1이 아닐 때 반응 혼합물중 소량으로 존재하는 반응성분이 투과되거나, 혹은 초기 반응물 몰비율이 1인 반응 혼합물중 어느 반응성분이 투과되든지 반응이 완결될 수 없었다. 생성물인 에스터가 물과 함께 일부 투과될 경우 정방향 반응속도를 증가시켜 시간에 따른 반응 전환률을 증가시킨다. 막을 통한 불완전 분리시 막을 통한 투과로 인하여 발생하는 반응혼합물의 부피감소로 인하여 반응성분 뿐 아니라 생성성분의 농도가 증가되는데 이들 농도증가가 반응속도에 상반된 영향을 끼친다; 반응물 농축은 반응속도를 증가시키나 생성물 농축은 역방향의 반응을 촉진시킴으로서 반응속도를 감소시킨다. 반응초기에는 반응물 농축효과가 우세하나 반응이 진행됨에 따라 생성물 농축효과가 우세하여 반응속도를 저하시킴이 모사결과 관찰되었다.

In order to develop the vacuum distillation process of magnesium alloy scrap, a fundamental study on the evaporation behavior of magnesium alloy (AM50) scrap melt was carried out. Melt temperature, pressure, reaction time, and initial specific surface area of melt were considered as experimental variables. The evaporation rate of magnesium increased with the increase of melt temperature and initial specific surface area of melt, and with the decrease of the pressure. The activation energy of magnesium evaporation reaction calculated by an Arrhenius plot decreased with the decrease of the pressure and with the increase of the initial specific surface area of melt. An empirical equation was derived for the evaporation rate of magnesium from AM50 alloy melt.

The effects of initial concentration, flow rate, and recycle ratio on the removal efficiency of phenol were studied in a tapered fluidized bed reactor packed with activated carbon which was attached with Candida tropicalis. The optimum conditions of Candida tropicalis were showed that pH was 7.0 and temperature was $30^{\circ}C$, and the specific growth rate of Candida tropicalis was satisfied with the Monod equation up to 500 mg/L of phenol, and beyond it the inhibition of substrate was found. According to the increases of initial concentration and flow rate, the removal efficiency was decreased, as the recycle ratio was increased, the removal efficiency was increased. In the case of flow rate of 10mL/sec and the recycle ratio of 2, the removal efficiency was 90% above for the all of initial concentration. The removal rate of phenol was the first order reaction in this system, and the rate equation of reaction was as follows.
