We investigated the optimal surface aeration rate during bioethanol production from the hydrolysate of seaweed Sargassum sagamianum using Pichia stipitis. It was observed that, when the working volume was 880 mL in 2.5-L lab-fermentor, the surface aeration rates of 30 to 100 mL/min were the optimal values for bioethanol production, in which this surface aeration rate corresponded to less than 0.05 (1/min) as the oxygen transfer rate coefficient ($k_La$). In addition, during repeated-batch operation was carried out, we examined whether those surface aeration rates were the optimal for bioethanol production. It was also observed that the surface aeration rates of 30 to 100 mL/min in the working volume of 880 mL were the optimal values in terms of the cumulative bioethanol producrion and bioethanol yield. On the basis of the oxygen transfer rate coefficient it is probable that those surface aeration rates will be applied to the large-scale bioethanol production from the hydrolysate of seaweed Sargassum sagamianum.

Ignition of hydrogen and oxygen in the "third limit" is theoretically investigated in the stagnation point flow with activation energy asymptotics. With the steady-state approximations of H, OH, O and HO$_2$, a two-step reduced kinetic mechanism is derived for the regime lower than the crossover temperature T$_{c}$ at which the rates of production and consumption of all radicals are equal. Appropriate scaling of Damkohler number successfully provides the explicit relationship between pressure, temperature and strain rate at ignition. It is shown that, compared with those for the counterflow, ignition temperatures for the stagnation point flow are considerably increased with increasing the system pressure. This is because ignition in the "third limit" is characterized by the production of reduction of $H_2O$$_2$, which is reduced by wall effect. Strain rate substantially affects ignition temperature because key reaction rates of $H_2O$$_2$ are comparably with its transport rate, while the mixture temperature and the hydrogen composition do not significantly affect ignition temperature.e.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the reforming characteristics and maximum operating condition for the hydrogen production by methane reforming using the compression ignition engine induced partial oxidation. An dedicated compression engine used for methane reforming was decided operating range. The partial oxidation reforming was investigated with oxygen enrichment which can improve hydrogen production, compared to general reforming. Parametric screening studies were achieved as $O_2/CH_4$ ratio, total flow rate, and intake temperature. When the variations of $O_2/CH_4$ ratio, total flow rate, and intake temperature were 1.24, 208.4 L/min, and $400^{\circ}C$, respectively, the maximum operating conditions were produced hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Under the condition mentioned above, synthetic gas were $H_2\;22.77{\sim}29.22%,\;CO\;21.11{\sim}23.59%$.

구연산을 생산하고자 캡슐 내부에 A. niger를 고 정화하여 배양하는 경우 곰팡이가 뻗어나와 캡슐 벽 면위에서 성장하게 된다. 배지중의 탄소원이나 산소 가 부족하면 캡슐벽 밖에 나온 균사가 느슨하게 자라게 되며 탄소원과 산소가 충분하면 캡슐벽 밖의 균사는 단단하게 뭉쳐지며 생산성과 생산수율이 매 우 높아진다. 즉 배지의 단위 부피당 적절한 캡슐수 가 존재한다. 배양중에 캡슐막이 팽창하는 현상은 배지중에 $CaCl_2$를 첨가함으로써 방지할 수 있다. 배 지중에 $CaCl_2$를 첨가하는 시기에 따라 생산성은 영향을 받으며, 배양초기에 $CaCl_2$를 첨가하는 경우보 다 배양 7일째에 $CaCl_2$를 첨가하는 경우가 생산수율 이 약 40% 정도 증가하였다. 고정화 캡슐을 이용하 여 플라스크 배양으로 구연산을 생산하는 경우 생산 수율은 산소공급에 큰 영향을 받는다. Parafilm으로 밀봉된 플라스크 대신 산소공급이 원활한 T -flask를 사용하면 생산량은 11배 생산수율(${\Delta}p/{\Delta}s$)은 3.8배 증가하였다. A. niger를 캡슐에 고정화 배양하여 구 연산을 생산하는 경우는 bead에 고정화 배양하여 생산하는 경우보다 6일째부터 13일째 사이에 평균 30 % 이상의 구연산 생산량 증가가 있었다.

Numerical Study with detailed chemistry has been conducted to investigate the flame structure and NOx formation characteristics in oxygen -enhanced(CH$_4$/O$_2$-$N_2$) and oxygen-enhanced-EGR(CH$_4$/O$_2$-$CO_2$) counter diffusion flame with various strain rates. A small amount of $N_2$is included in oxygen-enhanced-EGR combustion, in order to consider the inevitable $N_2$contamination by $O_2$production process or air infiltration. The results are as follows : In CH$_4$/O$_2$-$CO_2$flame it is very important to adopt a radiation effect precisely because the effect of radiation changes flame structure significantly. In CH$_4$/O$_2$-$N_2$flame special strategy to minimize NO emission is needed because it is very sensitive to a small amount of $N_2$. Special attention is needed on CO emission by flame quenching, because of increased CO concentration. Spatial NO production rate of oxygen-enhanced combustion is different from that of air and oxygen-enhanced-EGR combustion in that thermal mechanism plays a role of destruction as well as production. In case CH$_4$/O$_2$-$CO_2$flame contains more than 40% $CO_2$it is possible to maintain the same EINO as that of CH$_4$/Air flame with accomplishing higher temperature than that of CH$_4$/Air flame. EINO decreases with increasing strain rate, and those effects are augmented in CH$_4$/O$_2$flame.

A dense mixed ionic and electronic conducting ceramic membrane is one of the most promising materials because it can be used for separation of oxygen from the mixture gas. The $ABO_3$ perovskite structure shows high chemical stability at high temperatures under reduction and oxidation atmospheres. $BaCo_{1-x-y}Fe_xZr_yO_{3-{\delta}}$ (BCFZ) was well-known material as high mechanical strength, low thermal conductivity and stability in the high valence state. Glycine Nitrate Process (GNP) is rapid and effective method for powder synthesis using glycine as a fuel and show higher product crystallinity compared to solid state reaction and citrate-EDTA method. BCFZ was fabricated by modified glycine nitrate process. In order to control the burn-up reaction, $NH_4NO_3$ was used as extra nitrate. According to X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) results, BCFZ was single phase regardless of Zr dopants from y=0.1 to 0.3 on B sites. The green compacts were sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Oxygen permeability, methane partial oxidation rate and hydrogen production ability of the membranes were characterized by using Micro Gas Chromatography (Micro GC) under various condition. The high oxygen permeation flux of BCFZ 1-451 was about $1ml{\cdot}cm^{-2}s^{-1}$. Using the humidified Argon gas, BCFZ 1-433 produced hydrogen about $1ml{\cdot}cm^{-2}s^{-1}$.

Aureobasidium pullulans에 의한 세포외 다속류 생성연구를 통한 결론은 다음과 같다. (1) sucrose 농도가 50 g/l 이상일 때는 기질에 의한 저해 작용이 나타나고 있음을 알았으며 실소원의 증가에 따라서 균체량은 증가하지만 세포외 다속류 생성은 최적농도 (1 g/l )까지 증가하고 그 이상에서는 감소했으며 멜라닌 색소 출현시간은 길어졌다. (2) 최대 균체 성장은 초기 pH 3.0에서 보인 반면에 세포외 다속류 생성은 초기 pH 7.5에서 최대 값은 나타내었고 최대 PH가 증가함에 따라서 효모형 비율이 증가했으며 멜라닌 색소 출현시간은 pH 4.5~8까지는 거의 일정하게 나타났지만 pH 3 이하에서는 전혀 멜라닌 색소가 나타나지 않았다. (3) 탄소원과 실소원을 증가시켰을 때 pH 5 이하에서는 멜라닌 색소는 나타나지 않았으나 pH 6에서 pH 8.5 로 pH가 높아짐에 따라 멜라닌 색소는 빨리 나타나는 경향을 보였다. (4) 용존산소 농도가 높을수록 균체량과 세포외 다속류 생성이 증가했고 멜라닌 색소 출현시간이 빨라졌으며 potassium phosphate가 전혀 들어있지 않는 배지에서는 멜라닌 색소 출현은 관찰할수가 없었다.

Effect of carbon source and culture conditions involved in the concentration of dissolved oxygen on cell growth and the production of pullulan by A. pullulans HP2001 were investigated. Among those carbon sources, glucose was found to be the best carbon source for the production of pullulan by A. pullulans HP2001. Maximal production of pullulan by A. pullulans HP2001 was 26.6 g/ f when concentrations of glucose and yeast extract were 8% (w/v) and 0.25% (w/v), respectively. It was found that aeration rate, agitation speed and inner pressure of a bioreactor, which were some of physiological factors involved in the dissolved oxygen in the medium may affect cell growth and the production of pullulan by A. pullulans HP2001.

Arthrospira platensis has been reported to contain a variety of substances such as phycocyanin, ${\beta}$-carotene, vitamin E and other carotenoids. In this study, zebrafish were treated with indoor cultivation spirulina ethanol extracts(ICAE) to determine toxicity(coagulation rate, hatching rate, heart rate). We used the DCFH-DA staining method to detect the effect of reactive oxygen species(ROS) generation on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced zebrafish embryos ROS various concentrations(0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5mg/ml) of ICAE. Cell toxicity was measured by WST-1 assay on RAW 264.7 macrophage cell line. Also, measured the inhibitory effect of nitric oxide(NO) and prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) production in RAW264.7 macrophages induced by LPS at various concentrations of ICAE. The results of embryo coagulation rate, hatching rate, heart rate of zebrafish at various(0.01, 0.05, 0.1mg/ml) of ICAE was no toxicity. The ICAE treated group had an inhibitory effect on NO and $PGE_2$ production compared and decreased with concentration. The results of this study ethanol extract of Arthrospira platensis has an anti-inflammatory effect and suggest that is worthy of use cosmetics for skin protection.

Sedimentary organic matter, exposed to continental surficial environment, reacts with oxygen supplied from the atmosphee and forms carbon-containing oxidation products. Knowledge of the rate and mechanisms of sedimentary organic matter weathering is important because it is one of the major controls on atmospheric oxygen level through geologic time. Under the abiological conditions, the oxidation rate of coal organic matter by molecular oxygen is enhanced by the increase of oxygen concentration and temperature. At ambient temperature and pressure, aqueous coal oxidation results in the formation of dissolved $CO_2$ dissolved organic carbon and solid oxidation products which are all quantitatively significant reaction products. The effects of pH, ultraviolet light, and microbial activity on the weathering of sedimentary organic matter are poorly contrained. Based on the results of geochmical and environmental studies, it is believed that the photochemical reaction should play an important role in the decomposition and oxidation of sedimentary organic matter removed from the weathering profile. At higher pH conditions, the production rate of DOC can be accelerated due to base catalysis. These high molecular weight oranic matter can react with man-made pollutants such as heavy metal ions via adsorption/desorption or ion exchange reactions. The effect of microbial activity on the oxidative weathering of sedimentary organic matter is poorly understood and remains to be studied.
