This study was carried out to observe the effect of superheated steam combined with oven heating on the physico-chemical and sensory properties of chicken meat. Specially, chicken breasts and thighs were heated for 40 min in various heating formulations such as oven heating, superheated steam heating or a combination of two kinds of heating. In the physical properties measurement, the shear force was increased as superheated steam heating time and chicken thighs were higher than chicken breasts in all treatments (p<0.05). The highest level of water holding capacity was solely superheated steam treated chicken for 40 min (p<0.05). The $L^*$ value was decreased but $a^*$ value or $b^*$ value were increased after cooking. Chicken breast exhibited a higher colour value than chicken thigh. Superheated heating was effective to reduce heating loss as 22.64% (p<0.05). However, pH was not different depending on the heating formulation or part of the chicken meat (p>0.05). In the sensory test, the combination of 10 min oven heating and 30 min superheated steam heating was effective to create a good flavour of chicken meat. In this study, an optimum formulation was developed which was a combination of 10 min oven heating and 30 min superheated steam heating. It was more effective to improve the quality of chicken meat than the single heat treatment of chicken meat.

Conventional hot-air oven-drying method takes at least four hours to determine the moisture content of wood sample and this method is not always acceptable to wood industry. In this study samples of six different specifications from Paulownia coreana, Pinus densiflora and Quercus acutissima were dried in domestic microwave oven to their oven dry weights to investigate the possibility of rapid moisture content determination technique using microwave-oven drying method. Continuous heating time, cooling time and intermittent heating time were determined by each species and sample specifications. Temperatures of surface and center of samples were also measured during drying. Oven-drying times were reduced to 1/7~1/10 of conventional hot-air oven-drying method. Therefore microwave heating and drying techniques appear attractive for wood industry as a rapid moisture content determination method.

Changes in quality of blanched vegetables(carrot, green onion, spinach) by microwave heating were evaluated. Ceramic coating treatment(CCT) within microwave oven caused the reduction of blanching time and Hunter's L, a, b values of vegetables. Also, CCT showed the higher cutting force compared to NCCT after microwave heating. Photomicrographs of cross-section of blanched vegetables after heating in ceramic coated microwave oven showed better appearance than those in nonceramic coated microwave oven. CCT process improved retention of vitamin C.

To compare volatile compounds in bulgogi cooked by different heating procedures, bulgogi was prepared by convection oven, electric pan and charcoal grill. A total of 61 volatile compounds, consisting of 4 pyrazines, 10 sulfur-containing compounds, 7 carbonyls, 7 alcohols, 7 aliphatic hydrocarbons, 25 terpene hydrocarbons, and 1 miscellaneous compound, were tentatively identified in bulgogi cooked by the three heating methods. Comparatively, the difference in volatile compounds identified in bulgogi using the three different heating methods was not significant, except for sulfur-containing compounds and carbonyls which were detected at higher levels in the bulgogi cooked by convection oven than in that cooked by the other two heating methods. On the other hand, some compounds, such as furfural, benzaldehyde, and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, were detected only in the bulgogi cooked by charcoal.

A preliminary study for energy efficient soil heating and contaminant removal using microwave was conducted. Soils sampled from floodplain were heated with microwave oven, and soil heating property and energy efficiency were compared to those heated with electrical furnace. In addition the effects of water, soil organic matter, and contaminated diesel on soil heating with microwave were investigated. Even though the electrical power consumption of electrical furnace and microwave oven were similar, temperature of soil heated with microwave oven was significantly higher than that of soil heated with electrical furnace. The increase of soil moisture content delays the raise of soil temperature during heating it with microwave oven. However, the effects of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) (<10%) in contaminated soil matrix and small amount of soil organic matter (<5%) on the increase of soil temperature by microwave were not significant. Further studies for contaminated soils with different texture using pilot scale microwave reactor are required for application of this technique in the field.

Joule heating effect in EM(Electromigration) test were performed on a bend test structure. EM test is done under high current densities(1.0-2.5MA/cm2), which leads to joule heating. Since joule heating is added to the controlled oven(stress) temperature, themetal line temperature is higher than the stress temperature. The increase in the stress temperature due to joule heating is important because EM phenomena and metal line failure are related to the stress temperature. In this paper, metal line was stressed with a current density of 1.0 MA/$cm^2$, 1.5MA/$cm^2$, 2.0MA/$cm^2$, 2.5MA/$cm^2$, for 1200 sec and temperature increase due to joule heating was less than $10^{\circ}C$. Also it took 30 minutes for the metal line to equalized with oven temperature. Recommendations are given for the EM test to determine the initial resistance of EM test structure under stress temperature and current density.

Reduction behavior of stainless steelmaking dust by microwave heating process was investigated using coke and charcoal as reducing agents. Pellet dust and stanless steelmaking dust pelletized with reducing agent were reduced by the heating upto $1000^{\circ}C$ in microwave oven. The results showed that charcoal and coke seemed effective in the reduction of metals from stainless steelmaking dust by microwave heating and charocal was found to be better than coke. Degree of reduction seemed similar with the power of 500W and 700W in microwave oven. Dusts were rapidly reduced within 20 minutes. Reducing degree decreased in the order of Fe>Ni>Cr.

In this study, the optimum pre-heating condition was investigated to improve water extraction yield of Phelinus linteus tea. Pre-heating was carried out using drying oven or hot plate at different temperatures and times, and extraction yield was estimated by measuring optical density at 370 nm and soluble solid content. The highest optical density and soluble solid content of Phelinus linteus tea were observed when pre-heated at $70{\sim}80^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in drying oven. Pre-heating in drying oven resulted in also faster color changes of Phelinus linteus tea at lower temperature. According to the organoleptic evaluation, pre-heated Phelinus linteus tea in drying oven at $70{\sim}80^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes was preferred compared to the non-treated. In conclusion, pre-heating in drying oven at $70{\sim}80^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes was found to be the most efficient conditions to increase extraction yield of Phelinus linteus tea.

As interest in lunar exploration increases, studies on lunar surface environment simulation including a lunar soil simulant are being conducted. One of the problems when creating a vacuum environment with lunar soil is that it takes long time to reach high vacuum due to outgas from the soil. Most of the outgas is water, and the time to reach high vacuum can be significantly reduced by a pretreatment process that removes moisture adhering to the surface of the lunar soil before putting soil into a vacuum chamber. The existing soil drying methods were examined to determine how these methods were effective to remove moisture from the lunar simulant soil. Drying experiments of lunar soil samples were carried out using a dry oven, a microwave oven, direct heating method and a vacuum oven, and the results of the drying experiment were presented. Drying soil at 110℃ using a dry oven and drying soil by a microwave oven were not enough to remove moisture, and vacuum oven drying method and direct heating drying method at more than 200℃ were effective in water removal.
