Cheese flavor is derived from three main pathways, that are proteolysis, lipolysis and glycolysis, the extent of which varies according to the cheese variety. Proteolysis is the most complex of the three primary events during cheese ripening. The basis of EMC technology is the use of specific enzymes acting at optimum conditions to produce required cheese flavors from suitable substrates. These enzymes consist of proteinases, peptidases, lipases, esterases. The key factors in EMC production are the type of cheese flavor required, the type and specificity of enzyme or cultures used, their concentration and some processing parameters, such as pH, temperature, agitation, aeration, and incubation time. The emulsifiers, bacteriocins, flavor compounds, and precursors also effect to it importantly. The dosage of enzyme or starter culture used is dependent on the intensity of flavor required, processing time and temperature and the quality of the initial substrate. To produce a consistent EMC product it is necessary to have a highly controlled process, and a detailed knowledge of the enzymatic reactions under the conditions used must be fully understood.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of PCC loading at thick stock on the physical properties of paper. The effect of starch addition(2, 4 and 6%) and mixing time(5, 10 and 20 min.) on the filler retention and paper properties were investigated. Optimum dosage of cationic starch as a fixing agent was 4%, and mixing time did not showed any significant effect on the filler retention. PCC loading at thick stock was more effective to improve bulk and opacity than PCC loading at thin stock, although their improvement was not so significant. It was also found that the strength properties could be improved by the loading at thick stock. PCC loading method at thick stock could be considered as one of potential approaches for further improving of paper properties, although further research works are required in order to apply the PCC loading at thick stock in the paper mill.

Polypropylene (PP) fibers for making fabric which is used for packing cement have a high strength and high tear resistance. Due to these excellent properties the present study investigates the effect of PP fibers on the mechanical strength of concrete. Mechanical strength parameters such as compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength are evaluated. Structural integrity of concrete using Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) was also studied. Concrete containing PP fibers in percentage of 0%, 0.15%, 0.25%, 0.5% and 0.75% was developed with a characteristic compressive strength of 25 MPa. Concrete cubes, cylinder and prismatic specimens were cast and tested. It was found that the UPV values recorded for all specimens were of the similar order. Test results indicated the used of PP fibers can significantly improve the flexural and splitting tensile strengths of concrete materials whereas it resulted a decreased in compressive strength. The relative increase in split tensile and flexural strength was optimum at a fiber dosage of 0.5% and a mild decreased were observed in 28 days compressive strength. The findings in this paper suggested that PP fibers deriving from these waste cement bags are a feasible fiber option for fiber-reinforced concrete productions.

Geopolymer binders fascinate the attention of researchers as a replacement to cement binder in conventional concrete. One-ton production of cement releases one ton of carbon-dioxide in the atmosphere. In the replacement of cement by geopolymer material, there are two advantages: one is the reduction of CO₂ in the atmosphere, second is the utilization of Fly ash and Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) are by-products from coal and steel industries. This paper focuses on the mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced geopolymer concrete. The framework considered in this research work is geopolymer source (Fly ash, GGBFS and crimped steel fibre) and alkaline activator which consists of NaOH and Na₂SiO₃ of molarity 8M. Here the Na₂SiO₃ / NaOH ratio was taken as 2.5. The variables considered in this experimental work include Binder content (360,420 and 450 kg/m³), the proportion of Fly ash and GGBS (70-30, 60-40 and 50-50) for three different grades of Geopolymer concrete (GPC) GPC 20, GPC 40 and GPC 60. The percentage of crimped steel fibres was varied as 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4% and 0.5%. Generally, the inclusion of steel fibres increases the flexural and split tensile strength of Geopolymer concrete. The optimum dosage of steel fibres was found to be 0.4% (by volume fraction).

The use of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement as a rapid-hardening cement admixture or eco-friendly alternate for ordinary Portland cement (OPC) has been attempted over the years, but the cost of CSA cement and availability of suitable aluminium resource prevent its wide practical application. To propose an effective ground improvement design in sandy soil, this study aims at blending a certain percentage of CSA with OPC to find an optimum blend that would have fast-setting behavior with a lower carbon footprint than OPC without compromising the mechanical properties of the cemented sand. Compared to the 100% CSA case, initial speed of strength development of blended cement is relatively low as it is mixed with OPC. It is found that 80% OPC and 20% CSA blend has low initial strength but eventually produces equivalent ultimate strength (28 days curing) to that of CSA treated sand. The specific OPC-CSA blend (80:20) exhibits significantly higher strength gain than using pure OPC, thus allowing effective geotechnical designs for sustainable and controlled ground improvement. Further parametric studies were conducted for the blended cement under various curing conditions, cement contents, and curing times. Wet-cured cement treated sand had 33% lower strength than that of dry-cured samples, while the stiffness of wet-cured samples was 25% lower than that of dry-cured samples.

In order to photocatalytically treat organic matter (COD_Cr) and chromaticity effectively, chemical coagulation and sedimentation processes were employed as a pretreatment of the leachate produced from landfill in Jeju Island. This was performed using FeCl₃·6H₂O as a coagulant. For the treated leachate, UV/TiO₂ and UV/TiO₂/H₂O₂ systems were investigated, using 4 types of UV lamps, including an ozone lamp (24 W), TiO₂ as a photocatalyst, and/or H₂O₂ as an initiator or inhibitor for photocatalytic degradation. In the chemical coagulation and sedimentation process using FeCl₃·6H₂O, optimum removal was achieved with an initial pH of 6, and a coagulant dosage of 2.0 g/L, culminating in the removal of 40% COD_Cr and 81% chromaticity. For the UV/TiO₂ system utilizing an ozone lamp and 3 g/L of TiO₂, the optimum condition was obtained at pH 5. However, the treated COD_Cr and chromaticity did not meet the emission standards (COD_Cr: 400 mg/L, chromaticity: 200 degrees) in a clean area. However, for a UV/TiO₂/H₂O₂ system using 1.54 g/L of H₂O₂ in addition to the above optimum UV/TiO₂ system, the results were 395 mg/L and 160 degrees, respectively, which were within the emission standard limits. The effect of the UV lamp on the removal of COD_Cr, and chromaticity of the leachate decreased in the order of ozone (24 W) lamp > 254 nm (24 W) lamp > ozone (14 W) lamp > 254 nm (14 W) lamp. Only COD_Cr and chromaticity treated with the ozone (24 W) lamp met the emission standards.

난분해성 폐수인 사진현상폐수의 $UV/H_2O_2$ 및 $H_2O_2$의 고급산화에 의한 오염물질의 제거 실험을 실시하였다. $UV/H_2O_2$ 산화에서 $H_2O_2$의 분해로 $OH^-$ 라디칼이 발생되는데 파장 190~300 nm의 UV가 반응의 촉매 역할을 한다. $OH^-$ 라디칼은 수명은 짧으나 강력한 산화력을 갖고 있는데, 이 산화력은 폐수처리에서 폐수나 액상 폐기물의 유기물질을 제거하는데 이용된다. 본 연구에서 기존의 tube형 반응조의 단점을 보완한 UV-자유반사 반응조를 제작하여 사용하였으며 UV원으로는 수은 고압램프가 이용되었다. 본 실험에서는 반응시간과 $H_2O_2$ 주입량 및 pH 변화에 따른 오염물의 처리효율의 변화를 조사하였는데 $H_2O_2$의 주입량이 증가할수록 처리효율이 높았으나 그 차이는 미미하였으며, pH 8에서 보다는 3에서 처리효율이 약간 높았으나 그 차이 역시 크지 않았다. 본 연구에서 사진현상폐수 처리의 적정 운전조건은 pH 8, $H_2O_2$ 주입량은 유입수의 COD를 기준으로 한 1.3배 화학량론적 주입으로 나타났는데, 5시간의 처리에서 $COD_{Cr}$, TOC 및 색도의 제거효율은 각각 약 47.5%, 75.0% 및 91.5%로 나타났다. 반응 후 생분해성의 지표인 BOD/COD 비는 초기 0.04에서 0.21로 약 5.3배 증가하였다.
