In the wastewater treatment experiment by anaerobic-aerobic packed bed unit, it was found that the high and stable removal efficiency of nitrogen could be obtained. The extent of nitrogen removal gradually decreased with the rise of recycle ratio and DO concentration. On the other hand, the extent of phosphorus increased with the increase of DO concentration. COD showed high removal efficiency over the entire range tested. The simulation of T-N behavior was carried out satisfactorily by using the kinetic equations for biofilm and the reactor model which considered the packed bed as a plug flow reactor.

The precipitation behavior of solute carbon and nitrogen strongly affects the mechanical properties of low-carbon automotive panel. In the present study, the effects of aluminum and solute nitrogen on the bake hardenability and strain aging of extremely low-carbon steel with carbon content below 15 ppm has been investigated. The ferrite grain size and distribution of precipitates were varied with the amount of aluminum content of 0.003 to ~ 0.100 wt% in a constant solute carbon and nitrogen. With increasing the aluminum content, the ferrite grain size is increased and strain aging is delayed. The strain aging is also delayed by increasing the annealing temperature, although the ferrite grain size is not much changed.

Three goats were fed with $^{15}N$-labelled rice straw to study the characteristics of digestion, assimilation, metabolism and excretion of C and N compounds from rice straw. It was shown that the amount of $^{15}N$ assimilated into the bodies of the two slaughtered goats accounted for 38.5 and 23.6% of the total amount of $^{15}N$ ingestion in the experimental diet by each goat. The $^{15}N$ excreted via the feces and urine for the three goats accounted for 34.8, 33.2 and 33.9% of the total amount of $^{15}N$ ingested in the feed of the 3 goats. The recoveries of $^{15}N$ from the two slaughtered goats were 73.3 and 57.5%, with the corresponding rates of $^{15}N$ loss 26.7 and 42.5% respectively. The amino acids digestibilities were 68.7 and 54.0%, while the digestibilities of carbohydrates were 74.8 and 67.7% respectively for goats 1 and 3.

The dynamics of nitrogen compounds and RNA-based functional genes were characterized in the nitrification-denitrification coupling process. For the removal of residual ammonium, intermittent aeration was introduced in the denitrification reactor. N₂O production was not observed in both reactors. In both reactors, the nitrifying genes (achaeal-amoA, bacterial-amoA and hor) and denitrifying genes (narG, nirK, norB and nosZ) had a copy number of 3.92 × 10²-7.25 × 10⁵ and 2.85 × 10²-3.06 × 10⁴ per ng of DNA, respectively. These results suggest that denitrification and nitrification reactions occur in both the nitrification and denitrification reactors, respectively. Therefore, the coupling process is a promising one for the conversion of ammonium to nitrogen without generating N₂O.

This study was conducted to investigated the changes in the nutrient components ($NO_3{^-}-N$, $NH_4{^+}-N$, $PO_4{^{3-}}P$, $K^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, and $Mg^{2+}$) and environmental parameters (electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids and pH) on the leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) grown with hydroponics. Recirculating hydroponic cultivation system was consisted of planting port, LED lamp, water tank, and circulating pump for hydroponic. Nutrient solution was used in the standard solution for Japan vegetables experimental station and commercial hydroponic. The result showed that electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS) and pH, depending on the growth of lettuce decreased continuously. With the growth of the lettuce, nitrate nitrogen, ammonia nitrogen, phosphate phosphorus were required for periodic replacement. The number of pH compensation due to the growth of lettuce are the most high. The concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ during the lettuce growth showed no significant change. However, $K^+$ concentration increased due to the replacement with nitrogen and phosphorus. Electric conductivity and total dissolved solids with total nutrient concentration showed the linear relationship and the correlation coefficient $R^2$ were 0.8601 and the 0.827, respectively.

$\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ nanobelts and nanoparticles were synthesized from mechanically ground GaN powders with thermal annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere and an oxygen atmosphere, respectively. The study of field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) on the microstructures of nanomaterials revealed that the nanobelts synthesized in the nitrogen atmosphere are with the range of 20~1000nm width and 10 ~100nm thickness, and that nanomaterials are nanoparticles with 20~50nm radius obtained by thermal annealing in an oxygen atmosphere. The crystal structure of the $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ nanobelts and nanoparticles was in this study investigated by X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM). The formation processes of the nanobelts and nanoparticles will be discussed in this paper.

To obtain Cytochrome $c_3$ labeled with a stable isotope, the conditions of cultivation and the composition of medium for DvMF were examined. The growth of DvMF was steady and reproducible under purging with $N_2$ and under pH control. DvMF was able to go on a defined medium without natural products. The composition of the medium containing a small amount of $NH_4Cl$ as sole nitrogen source was established. Then, uniformly $^{15}N-labeled$ Cytochrome $c_3$ was obtained during the culture of DvMF in a defined medium with $^{15}NH_4Cl$; it was confirmed by $^{1}H-^{15}N$ HMQC.

The rate constants for the nucleophilic addition of thiophenol to $\alpha$, N-diphenylnitrone and it's derivatives (p-$OCH_3$, p-Cl, p-$NO_2$) were determined from pH 3.0 to 13.0 by UV spectrophotometry and rate equations which can be applied over a wide pH range were obtained. On the basis of rate equation, general base and substituent effect a plausible addition mechanism of thiophenol to ${\alpha}$, N-diphenylnitrone was proposed: At high pH, the addition of sulfide ion to carbon-nitrogen double bond was rate controlling, however, in acidic solution, reaction was proceeded by the addition of thiophenol molecule to carbon-nitrogen double bond after protonation at oxygen of ${\alpha}$, N-diphenylnitrone.

In the current study, we examined the quality of surface water in ponds at two golf courses, located in southern (Country Club P) and eastern (Country Club B) areas of Korea respectively. Seasonal measurements were made of following physical parameters;pH, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, chloride, alkalinity, hardness, and nitrogen compounds [$NH_3$-N, $NO_2$-N, $NO_3$-N] and the concentrations of four heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) throughout the courses. The pH values were within the alkaline range (7.3 to 9.0), and the biological oxygen demand was generally between 0.5 and 3.1 mg/L. The alkalinity and hardness ranged from 19.1 to 68.5mg/L and 16.1 to 63.6 mg/L, respectively. Nitrogen as ammonium $(NH_3-N)$ was detected in all samples, and the samples had low concentrations of $NO_2-N$ and $NO_3-N$. Cd concentrations were relatively high (to 22.44 mg/L); the highest Cd concentration was observed in the pond in Country Club P. Other metal concentrations were low compared to the Quebec guidelines.
