Response surface methodology was used for monitoring extraction conditions, based on quality properties of old pumpkin extracts. Hunter's color L value of extracts was maximized at 101℃, 2.6 hr and decreased gradually after maximum point. The polynomial equation for Hunter's color L value showed 10% of significance level and 0.8799 of R². Hunter's color a value was minimized at 117℃, 3.9 hr and R² of polynomial equation was 0.9852 within 1% significance level. Hunter's color b value and ΔE value increased as the extracting temperature and time increased. Extraction yield of old pumpkin was maximized at 110℃, 4 hr and increased in proportional to the extracting temperature and time, but decreased after 113℃ and 2 hr. Viscosity of pumpkin extracts were maximized at 120℃, nearly 3 hr. R² of polynomial equations for yield, viscosity and sugar content were 0.9532, 0.9812 and 0.8869, respectively. Optimum ranges of extraction conditions for quality properties of old pumpkin were 102∼109℃, 2.5∼3.5 hr, respectively. Predicted values at the optimum extraction condition agreed with experimental values.

The optimum conditions for the submerged mycelial culture of Lentinus edodes SR-1 were elucidated to be incubation temperature of 25C, initial pH 4.0, agitation of 300 rpm, inoculation of 10.0%(v/v), and aeration of 1.0 v/v/m in TGY medium. The optimum c/n ratio and economic yield coeffcient for the submerged mycelial culture were 13.1:1 and 0.45 respectively. As the plant growth hormones test, SCM medium containing 0.5ppm of 2,4-dicholorophenoxyacetic acid increased mycelial yield in 1.1%, but 6-benzylaminopurine was not effective.

To produce economically important acid with pear juice, an acetic acid bacterium was selected from many isolated acetic acid bacteria. The alcohoic fermentation was conducted by inoculating pear juice with Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 4124, and then the pear vinegar was prepared by batch cultivation in flaskes with the isolated Acetobacter sp. The optimum conditions for high yield of acetic acid were studied experimentally in the batch shake flask . For seed purposes the Acetobactor sp. was cultivated for 2 -days and transferred to the acid production medium . Optimum alcohol concentration, initial acidity and temperature for the acid production were 8.0% , 2.0% and 28$^{\circ}C$, respectively. Under the same conditions, the addition of yeast extract (1%) was observed to produce relatively high yield of acetic acid.

An attempt was made in this study to investigate the optimum extracting time from meat with bone of goat and the nutritional component of its extract. for the trials, the mixtures of meat with bone and water were adjusted to the ratios of five to four by weight and extracted for 6, 9 and 12 hours at 120$\^{C}$ under autoclave. Judging from the content of mineral and amino acid, nonenzymatic browning and yield, the optimum extracting time was 9 hours. The major components of mineral were composed of 47.7mg％ potassium, 12.7mg% calcium, 150.0mg% sodium, 105.3mg% phosphorus and 0.5mg% iron, and of amino acids composed of 1,308.0mg% glutamic acid, 1,464.2mg% glycine, 750.2mg% alanine and 828.lmg% proline in extract. The yield of extract was 32.1 percentage by dry basis.

This investigation was undertaken to establish the technologies of grain refinement and modification, and to characterize material properties, essential for high quality aluminum alloy castings. Grain refinement seldom changed DAS and eutectic Si size, but largely decrease grain size. The variations of grain size induced by grain refinement had a great influence on the elongation without changes in the tensile strength or yield strength. The optimum Ti level lies between 0.1% and 0.16% to achieve the best possible mechanical properties. DAS and grain size were little affected, but eutectic Si size was greatly refined by modification. The variation of eutectic Si size had a great effect on the elongation, impact value, fracture toughness and fatigue crack propagation rate without changes in the tensile strength or yield strength. The Sr content of 0.015% is optimum to modification.

Purpose: Self-sufficiency in paper production is desired in Nigeria. This study was aimed at evaluating the performance of a locally fabricated batch pulp digester. Methods: The pulp yields of sheaths generated as waste in the production of bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris) laminates were determined at different liquor concentrations and treatment time after preliminary experiments to ascertain the conditions under which the sheath started to pulp. Moreover, the optimum pulping conditions and fiber characteristics were determined and estimated, respectively, to ascertain the pulp fiber suitability for paper production. Results: An optimum pulp yield of 65.1% was obtained at 50% NaOH and 25% $Na_2S$ liquor concentration (w/w) when the cooking time was 4 h. The results of fiber characterization of the pulp indicated an average fiber length of 2.19 mm with a low Runkel ratio of 1.63, both of which signify the suitability of the pulp for medium quality paper production. Conclusions: Softwood pulp can be blended with the fibers to improve the strength of the produced paper; further investigation should be carried out to use other non-woody plants for pulp and papermaking.

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is useful technique to join aluminum alloy with energy efficient and environment friendly. In this paper, the design of experiment with three-way factorial design was adopted for optimum conditions of welding variables in the FSW of Al 6061 alloy. Tools of shoulder diameter of 9, 12, 15 mm and pin length of 1.5 mm were used. Also the material's dimension for welding were $2{\times}100{\times}150mm$, and the tensile specimens were worked by water-jet technique. Welding variables were shoulder diameter, rotating speed and travel speed of tool. From the results of this work, the welding factor influenced on yield strength most was travel speed and the optimum condition for FSW was predicted as the shoulder diameter of 15 mm, welding speed of 500 mm/min and rotating speed of 2,000 rpm. Also the presumption range of yield strength at optimal condition of reliability 99% was estimated to $207.19{\pm}9.91MPa$.

The yield of OTP devices using anti-fuse MOS capacitor have been affected by the input resistance, the size of the pass transistor and the read transistor, and the readout voltage of programed cell. To investigate the element which gives an effect to yield, we analyze the full map data of the resistance characterization of OTP device and those data in a various experimental condition. As a result, we got the optimum conditions which is necessary to the yield improvement. The optimum conditions are as follows: Input resistance is 50 ohms, the channel length of pass transistor is 10um, read voltage is 2.8 volt, respectively.

Optimization of fluidized bed granulating conditions for yield, bulk density, and tapped density of powdered milk was determined using response surface methodology. Yield of powdered milk was greatly affected by feeding rate of water, and bulk density and tapped density could be reduced by decreasing of atomization pressure. The optimum conditions for fluidized bed granulating of powdered milk were predicted with 6$0^{\circ}C$ of inlet air temperature, 16 mL/min of feeding rate, and 2.1 bar of atomization pressure. Also 94% of yield 0.350 g/㎤ of bulk density, and 0.446 g/㎤ of tapped density of powdered milk could be obtained by the optimum granulating conditions.

To investigate the optimum conditions of seaweed Mooks prepared with sea mustard (Indaria pinnatifida) and sea tangel(Laminaria japonica), pH, viscosity , yield and jelly strength were studied on the sol and /or gel (Mook ) made from homogenized seaweeds. Solubilization conditions of homogenized seaweeds were heating at $65^{\circ}C$ for one hour after mixing homogenized seaweed with 1 % $K_2$HPO$_4$ by 1 ; 1 (v/v) . Gelation conditions were 24 hrs by natural permeation of Ca++ into the sol in three times (v/v) of 1 % CaCl$_2$ solution to solubilized seaweed passed through 60 mesh of sieve. There are generally no relationship between viscosity of solubilized seaweed and jelly strength of Mook produced by gelation of the sol in CaCl$_2$ solution . Jelly strength of sea mustard Mook was more than 500g/$\textrm{cm}^2$ , yield was 87.5% of the solubilized and filtrated seaweed . Jelly strength and specific gravity of sea tangle Mook were higher those of sea mustard Mook, while its yield was lower than that of sea mustard Mook.
