Korean mariculture Undaria pinnatifida was collected during the months of January, February, March, and December of 2010, as well as from January of 2011 to investigate the changes in the carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios (${\delta}^{13}C$ and ${\delta}^{15}N$) and heavy metal with respect to it growth and to identify the factors that influence such changes. The blades of U. pinnatifida showed ${\delta}^{13}C$ and ${\delta}^{15}N$ in the range (mean) of -13.11 to -19.42‰ (-16.93‰) and 2.99 to 7.57‰ (4.71‰), respectively. Among samples with the same grow-out period, those that weighed more tended to have higher ${\delta}^{13}C$ suggesting a close association between the carbon isotope ratio and growth rate of U. pinnatifida. Indeed, we found a very high positive linear correlation between the monthly average ${\delta}^{13}C$ and the absolute growth rate in weight ($r^2=0.89$). Nitrogen isotope ratio tended to be relatively lower when nitrogen content in the blade was higher, probably due to the strengthening of isotope fractionation stemming from plenty of nitrogen in the surrounding environment. In fact, a negative linear correlation was observed with the nitrate concentration in the nearby seawaters ($r^2=0.83$). Concentrations of Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr, Hg, and Fe in the blades showed a rapid decrease in their concentration per unit weight in the more mature U. pinnatifida. Specifically, compared to adult samples, Cu, Hg, and Pb were concentrated by 30, 55, and 73 folds, respectively, in the young blades. Therefore, U. pinnatifida tissue ${\delta}^{13}C$ is as an indirect indicator of its growth rate, while ${\delta}^{15}N$ values and heavy metal concentrations serve as tracers that reflect the environmental characteristics.

본 연구는 SBR system에서 COD/N 변화에 따른 질소제거와 탈질화에 대한 탄소원으로서 폐수 내의 유기물의 이용을 조사하였다. 실험은 실험실에서 반응조 4개를 운전방식을 세가지로 변화시켜 행하였다. 세가지 운전방식의 차이로는 Mode I은 유입기간 동안 폭기하고 Mode II는 폭기를 중단한 상태에서 유입하였으며, Mode III는 폭기를 중단한 상태에서 1 cycle 동안 두 번 유입을 하였다. COD/N비가 증가되었을 때 총 질소 제거율은 Mode I에서 8.7에서 57.7%까지 증가되었고, Mode II에서는 28.9에서 83.2%까지, Mode III에서는 42.7에서 97.8%까지 증가되었다. COD 제거율은 전 실험기간 동안에 93에서 98%까지로 비교적 높았다. 1 cycle 동안 폭기를 하지 않은 상태에서 두 번의 유입을 하는 Mode III로 운전하는 것이 질소제거에서 가장 효과적인 방법으로 판명되었으며, 유출수에 포함된 질소농도는 유입수의 COD와 질소농도를 사용하여 추정할 수 있었다.

In this study, inter-laboratory comparison was done using elemental analyzer-isotope ratio mass spectrometers (EA-IRMSs) to determine carbon and nitrogen contents as well as stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions (${\delta}^{13}C$ and ${\delta}^{15}N$) of five environmental samples containing lake and marine sediments, higher plant leaves, and fish muscle, and one organic analytical standard (Protein (Casein) Standard OAS). Five national laboratories participated in this comparison study, and each laboratory analyzed all five samples and the analytical standard. Results showed that variations in total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN) contents as well as ${\delta}^{13}C_{TOC}$ and ${\delta}^{15}N_{TN}$ values among the laboratories were large compared to the analytical uncertainties. The results highlighted the inhomogeneity of the test samples and thus, the need to select suitable standard reference materials for future inter-laboratory studies. Further inter-laboratory comparison exercises could promote good measurement practices in the acquisition of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition data.

고밀도 순환여과식 해산어 양식장의 순환수 처리에 EMMC공정의 적용 가능성을 평가하기 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 처리공정의 운전효율에 유기물 및 암모니아성 질소 부하가 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 수리학적 체류기간을 12시간에서 10분까지 점차적으로 줄여가며 실험을 실시하였다. HRT 2시간까지는 수리학적 체류시간 변화에 따른 제거효율 변화가 거의 없었으나 그 이하의 체류시간에서는 체류시간 단축에 따른 제거효율의 감소가 비교적 크게 나타났다. COD의 경우에는 체류시간 단축에 따른 급격한 제거효율의 변화가 관측되지 않았으며 10분 정도의 체류시간에서도 90％이상의 제거효율을 나타내었다. 메디아 충진율에 따른 반응조 운전효율변화를 보면 HRT가 1시간보다 긴 경우에는 메디아 충진율에 따른 제거효율 변화가 극히 미미하였다. 그러나 1시간 이하의 체류시간에서는 그 차가 상당히 크게 나타나 충진량이 많을수록 제거효율이 높게 나타났으나 50％이상의 메디아 충진이 반응조 운전효율 측면에서는 큰 역할을 하지 못함을 나타내어 경제성 등을 고려할 경우 25％정도만을 충진 시키는 것이 오히려 합리적이라 판단되었다. 이와 같은 경향은 암모니아성 질소 제거의 경우에도 유사한 양상을 나타내었다. 메디아 충진율 50％와 75％사이에는 처리효율의 차이가 거의 없었고 25％충진 반응조와의 차이도 그리 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

A study was carried out to select a nitrogen source and the optimize the C/N ratio for the maximum cell growth of Phaffia rhodozyma in fed-batch culture. The yeast extract was the best organic nitrogen source. In the batch culture experiments, the highest cell yield was obtained 0.575 g-cell/g-glucose from 10 g/L and 10 g/L yeast extract. In the fed-batch experiments, the maximum cell concentration was obtained 33.1 g/L from the C/N ratio of 2:1 while the astaxanthin concentration of cell was Increased by increasing the C/N ratio, of feed medium.

We try to distribute air pollution sources at target area. The complex method is used to distribute air pollution sources. Most of people, However, want to simple indicator as standard for express air pollution source. In many area, air pollution is caused by different types of sources. The general type is point source, such as tall stack of power plants and oil refineries stacks. A second type is areal source, such as local industry and transportation. In this aspect, the ratio of sulfur dioxide to nitrogen oxides (RSN =SO$_2$/NOx)is an indicator of air pollution source. the role of this ratio is to show the characteristics at target area of the relationship the point and the areal source.

These studies were conducted to investigate the changes of starch, sugar and nicotine content in relation to maturity and cultural conditions and correlation between growth characteristics and chemical components in order to improve the leaf quality. The results were summarized as follows; 1. Nicotine content, total nitrogen content and the ratio of total nitrogen to nicotine of the green leaf were increased with heavier fertilizer, wider planting space and lower topping, whereas starch, total sugar and the ratio of sugar to nicotine were decreased. 2. Starch content, sugar content and the ratio of total sugar to nicotine(T-S/Nic) in the cured leaf were decreased with milder planting space, less application of MH and delaying harvesting date. 3. It was estimated that 58.1% of starch of the harvested leaf was converted into sugar of the cured leaf, and also they were significantly correlated each other.

The Anaerbic Anoxic/oxic process is one of the biological treatment methods to remove nitrogen and phosphorus effectively which are nutritional elements for eutrophication. Supernatant of primary sediment of Anaerobic digester is used as a carbon source instead of methanol methanol supply in usual A$_{2}$/O process. The efficiency of the following treatment processes are as follow : 1) Changing recycle ratio in the usual A$_{2}$/O process without the stage of Anaerobic digester. 2) Changing recycle ratio in the usual A$_{2}$/O process with the supernatant supply of the Anaerobic digester. In the result of comparison, changing recycle ratio is almost no effect in the removal of phosphorus, however the effect of removal in nitrogenous substance are remarkable, and the effect of Anaerobic digester is not as effective as expected because the BOD removed in the digester partly, the rate of phosphorus to the BOD exceed pertinent range.

The pullulan production and morphological change of Aureobasidium pullulans ATCC 9348 were investigated both in batch fermentation and in continuous fermentation. The best carbon source for pullulan production was sucrose among seven different carbon sources. The pullulan production of A. pullulans was increased with increasing the carbon to nitrogen ratio of the medium using sucrose as a carbon source. In batch fermentation, production of pullullan occurred following exhaustion of the nitrogen source from the medium. The continuous fermentation showed that the pullulan production was closely parallelled with cell growth and was most effective at a dilution rate of 0.06~0.07 hr$^{-1}$-. The ratio of yeast-like cells(blastospores) of A. pullulans increased with the increase of growth rate, and reached 100% over the growth rate of 0.07 hr$^{-1}$. The growth rate, within a certain range, affected not only on the cell morphology, but on the specific pullulan productivity of A. pullulans.

It has been acknowledged that fertilizer and animal waste have different ratio of \ulcornerN/\ulcornerN which is presented as a symbol of $\delta$\ulcornerN, and that the values of $\delta$\ulcornerN for fertilizer and animal waste are placed less than +8 $\textperthousand$ and higher than +10$\textperthousand$, respectively. By this reason, the demarcation range for the source nitrogen mass ratio is between +8$\textperthousand$ and +10$\textperthousand$. In this study, we would suggest a possible method to trace the major pollution basis using the nitrogen isotope analysis method for management of water quality.
