The isolated bacterial strain 1K1 able to grow on extremely high concentration of toluene was morphologically and physiologically best described as Pseudomonas putida. This strain could grow on at least eight aromatic compounds, e.g., benzene, benzoate, phenol, o-cresol, m-cresol, toluene, m-tolunte, and xylene, but did not Brow on alkanes, such as hexane, octane, decane, and cyclohexane. Strain 1K1 could grow on above 95% toluene, but it could not grow on above 1% of other aromatic compounds. In the point of survival, strain 1K1 was resistant to high concentration of alkanes, appreciably resistant to toluene and xylene, and damaged by to other aromatic compounds. Strain 1K1 which grew on high concentration of toluene had irregular cell shape in comparing with normal cell shape of the genus Pseudomonas. Strain 1K1 was shown to have at least two aromatic compound dissimilation pathway, one for benzoate and the other for toluene.

The tests on the oocysticidal effects of three formulations (75% o-dichlorobenzene, 7.5% cresol combined with morestan 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, respectively) against immature oocysts of Eimeria tenella, were carried out. A o-dichlorobenzene preparation (72.5% o-dichlorobenzene, 7.5% cresol) on the market was selected and tested as the control. The tests were divided into two ways, the one was evaluated at different dilutions and contact times. The other was performed at different storage days. The test results are summarized as follows. Oocysticidal effects of 100% were revealed at 1 to 3 hours contact time of all morestan combined preparations. On the other hand, the perfect oocysticidal effect was revealed only at 24 hours exposure time of 100 times dilution among dilutes of control preparation. Combined rate of morestan was higher, oocysticidal effect was better. In the latter test, all morestan combined formulations had 100% of oocysticidal effect up to 5 days storage after dilution and 86.4% to 96.7% at two weeks storage after dilution, whereas the oocysticidal effects of the control preparation was gradually decreased by the storage time was passed and there was no effect at 2 weeks storage after dilution. With these results, morestan combined preparations have synergistic effect against oocysts of E tenella and can be used as the most effective oocysticidal disinfectant for broiler industry in future.

The study was done to determine the effect of storage property and qualities of soybean sauce and paste by adding different amount of pyroligneous liquor obtained by supercritical fluid extraction(SFE). Purified pyroligneous liquor obtained by SFE at $40^{\circ}C$/110bar contained ${\rho}$-cresol, o-cresol and m-cresol food sterilizers, but no toxic substances such as tar, scorched, furfuraland and monophenol. Thus pyroligneous liquor was suitable as natural food preservative. In case of soybean sauce, pyroligneous liquor was tested for the possibility of utilizing it as natural food preservative to prevent film formation on soybean sauce for the test period of 15days at $30^{\circ}C$. In case of paste, pyroligneous liquor was tested for the possibility of utilizing it as natural food preservative to inhibit browning on paste for the test period of 60days at $30^{\circ}C$. As a result, purified pyroligneous liquor offered a promising way of improving the quality and storage property of soybean sauce and paste .

Plant biomass has been proposed to be an alternative source for petroleum-based chemical compounds. Especially, phenolic chemical compounds can be obtained from lignin by chemical depolymerization processes because lignin consists of complex aromatic polymer such as trans-p-coumaryl, coniferyl and sinapyl alcohols, etc. Phenolic chemical compounds from lignin were usually produced in super critical water. However, we applied Near-critical water (NCW) system because NCW is known as a good solvent for lignin depolymerization. Organic matter like lignin can be solved in NCW system and the system has a unique acid-base property without conventional non-eco-friendly chemicals such as sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide. In this work, we tried to optimize the NCW depolymerization system by adjusting the processing variables such as reaction time, temperature and pressure. Moreover, the amount of additional phenol was optimized by changing the molar ratio between water and phenol. Phenol was used as capping agent to prevent re-polymerization of active fragment such as formaldehyde. Alkali-lignin was used as a starting material and characterized by a Solid State 13C-NMR, FT-IR and EA (Elemental Analysis). GC-MS analysis confirmed that o-cresol, p-cresol, anisole and 4-hydroxyphathalic acid were the main product and they were quantitatively analyzed by HPLC.

Fresh bamboo (Phyllostachys bambuoides sieb. et zucc.) was charred at the mechanical steel kiln and traditional earth kiln with subsequent condensation of its smoke to 10$0^{\circ}C$. It was settled down for 12 months to remove tar components and then the middle layer of the liquid was collected as a bamboo smoke distillates to analyze its chemical composition and physicochemical characteristics for use as food additives or processing aids. The gravity, transmittance, reflectivity, and viscosity were 1.008, 89.05%, 1.36%, and 12.48 cp in the bamboo smoke distillates processed by mechanical steel kiln (MBSD) and 1.012, 98.33%, 1.34% and 9.05 cp in the bamboo smoke distillates by traditional earth kiln (TBSD), respectively. The color of TSBD was brighter than that of MBSD. The pH and titratable acidity, tar and remains were 3.55 and 2.830%, 2.803% and 0.671%, respectively, in the MBSD and 2.93 and 3.470%, 0.051% and 0.004%, respectively, in the TBSD. The major phenolic compounds of bamboo smoke distillates (BSD) were phenol, Ο-cresol, p-cresol, and guaiacol and the major organic acids were acetic acid, propionic acid, iso-butyric acid, and n-butyric acid, and major alcohols were methanol, furfuryl alcohol, and maltol. The contents of phenolic compound and alcohol were more in MBSD than in TBSD whereas the content of organic acid was more in TBSD than in MBSD. Therefore, toxic compounds for the human body, such as methanol from BSD should be removed for use as a food ingredient in the future.

Tridentate Schiff base ligands, $SIPH_2$, $SIPCH_2$, $HNIPH_2$, and $HNIPCH_2$ were prepared by the reactions of salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with 2-aminophenol and 2-amino-p-cresol. Ni(II) complexes of those ligands were synthesized. The structures and properties of ligands and their complexes were studied by elemental analysis, $^1H$-NMR, IR, UV-visible spectra, and thermogravimetric analysis. The mole ratio of Schiff base to the metal of complexes was found to be 1:1. Ni(II) complexes were contemplated to be hexa-coordinated octahedral configuration containing three water molecules. The redox process of ligands and complexes in DMSO solution containing 0.1 M TBAP as supporting electrolyte was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry with glassy carbon electrode. The redox process of the tridentate Schiff base ligands was totally irreversible. The redox process of Ni(II) complexes were quasi-reversible and diffusion-controlled as one electron by one step process Ni(II)/Ni(I). The reduction potentials of the Ni(II) complexes shifted in the positive direction in the order [$Ni(II)(HNIP)(H_2O)_3$]>[$Ni(II)(SIP)(H_2O)_3$]>[$Ni(II)(SIPC)(H_2O)_3$]>[$Ni(II)(HNIPC)(H_2O)_3$] and their dependence on ligands were not so high. Consequently the [$Ni(II)(HNIPC)(H_2O)_3$] complex among the synthesized Ni(II) complexes was found to be most stable in the DMSO solution.

The soluble polyimides(PMDA/diamine/dianhydride) were prepared and investigated. After coating the prepared PMDA/diamine/dianhydride solution into the commercial tubular alumina ceramic membranes, gas permeation characteristics was investigated. $T_g{\prime}s$ of the polyimides were in the range of $337{\sim}358^{\circ}C$ and thermal stability was good. The polymer was soluble in NMP, DMAc, DMSO, THF, and m-cresol. The adhesion between the alumina membrane and the soluble polyimide was excellent. The soluble polyimide/alumina membranes containing 6FDA showed the highest permeability among others. The permeability of nitrogen of PMDA/1,3PDA/6FDA-alumina membrane was about $7.6{\times}10^{-7}(mol/m^2{\cdot}Pa{\cdot}s)$ in the gas permeation experiments. The ideal separation factor of $O_2/N_2$ and $H_2/N_2$ in PMDA/1,3PDA/6FDA-alumina membrane were 6.19, and 70.0, respectively.

Dual-frequency ultrasound assisted photocatalysis (DUAP) method was proposed to degrade a stable organic model effluent, cresol red (CR), using the prepared $Fe^{3+}$-doped $TiO_2$ with active carbon fiber loading ($Fe^{3+}-TiO_2/ACF$) as photocatalyst. The influence of key factors, including Fe doping amount and power density of dual-frequency ultrasounds (20/40 kHz), on the degradation efficiency was investigated. The degradation efficiency rises to 98.7% in 60 min accompanied by the color removal of CR liquid samples from yellow to colorless transparent at optimal conditions. A synergy index of 1.40 was yielded by comparison with single ultrasound assisted photocatalysis (SUAP) and the photocatalysis without ultrasound assisted (UV/$TiO_2$), indicating that a clear synergistic effect exists for the DUAP process. Obvious enhancement of degradation efficiency for the DUAP process should be attributed to production of large amount of free radicals by strong cavitational effects of dual ultrasounds.
