The problem of disposing construction waste materials has become a national and social problem. Recycled powder generated in the process of making aggregate, and the recycled powder is land-filled in its entirety. Results of toxicity testing of recycled power show that it contains base-pair substituent mutagenicity. As recycled powder is disposed of as landfill, it can cause secondary contamination such as soil and underground water contamination. There has been very little research made on recycled powder. This study has examined the utilization of concrete mixture by using recycled powder in a mixture instead of cement and compared and analyzed the characteristics of dynamics and workability. This study has examined the application of recycled powder in concrete. Depending on the replacement rate and workability, test piece was manufactured using different mixing rate by CP, WCP, PCP. The CP was used to examine the physical property of concrete and characteristics its dynamics. The letters W of WCP and P of PCP are the initials of water and mixture. They were made using the standard mixing ratiosemphasizing the workability to determine the characteristic of dynamics of concrete based on the mixing ratio of recycled powder. With the increase in the replacement rate, CP had very little change in the strength. But with the decline of slump, the workability was not good. The result of manufacturing WCP and PCP using the standard mixing ratio showed that WCP had a drop in strength compared to the plain. PCP had almost the same value as the plain only when the replacement rate was 10%. When it was higher than that, a reduction in strength was observed.

The combining process of UV irradiation and H$_2$O$_2$ was used to investigate characteristics of cefaclor decomposition in the aquatic environment. The separate mixing tank was used to minimize the decreasing effective of contact area caused by sampling. Four baffles were installed inside the UV reactor for the complete mixing of the sample and outside of the reactor was wrapped with aluminum foil to protect the emission of photon energy. Production of OH radical was measured using pCBA(p-Chlorobenzoic acid) indirectly and rate constants were withdrawn pseudo-frist order reaction. Optimum condition for the maximum production of OH radical was found to be pH 3, hydrogen peroxide of 5 mmol/L and recirculation rate of 400 mL/min. Pseudo-frist order reaction rate constant was 0.1051 min$^{-1}$. In the optimum condition, cefaclor was completely decomposed within 40 min and rate constant was 0.093 min$^{-1}$. Decomposition by OH radical producted intermediate anions such as chloride, nitrate, sulfite and acetic acid and phenylglycine. After 6 hr most cefaclor was decomposed by UV/H$_2$O$_2$ process and converted to CO$_2$ and H$_2$O, resulting of operation in the decrease of TOC and acetic acid and the disappearance of phenylglycine.

Membrane electrode based on chitin(po1y-[$1{\rightarrow}4$]-${\beta}$-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) was prepared by mixing uniformly grounded of chitin (100 mesh) with PVC and DOS. We investigated the potential response of chitin membrane electrode to metal ions. It was observed that the response slopes for $Cd^{2+}$(34.9 mV/decade) and $Cu^{2+}$(34.0 mV/decade) were larger than those for other ions in pH 4 acetate buffer. The potentiometric response of chitin electrode to varying pH was nearly constant in the pH range of 2~12.

This study was conducted to optimize the conditions of a sweet rice paste as a replacement of red bean paste recipe using the central composite design of response surface methodology (RSM). Ten experimental recipes with two reference points (rice flour and sugar), were selected, and the physical and sensory characteristics of a sweet rice paste were measured. In the Rapid Visco Analyzer test, breakdown value was the highest in rice flour (105.73 RVU). Sweetness significantly increased with addition of sugar contents (p<0.0002) and viscosity increased with addition of rice flour contents (p<0.0185). Moisture contents decreased with increasing contents of rice flour and sugar, whereas yellowness and redness tend to increase. In the sensory evaluation test, quadratic models for color (p<0.01865), sweetness (p<0.0399), thickness (p<0.0073), and overall acceptability (p<0.0249) were approved as independent for the rice flour and sugar contents. In conclusion, the optimal mixing ratio of sweet rice paste was determined to be 45.38 g of rice flour and 77.95 g of sugar.

The finely powdered entire harbs of Polygala japonica Houttuyn, a drug known as Yong Shin-Cho in Korea, were boiled with methanol and from the filtered extract the methanol was distilled off under diminished pressure and the aqueous solution of the residue was evaporated to dryness after being mixed with ignited magnesia. The dried mass was boiled with absolute alcohol, the filtered clear liquid was evaporated to a small volume and the precipitate Saponin produced by mixing with ether was filtered off. When the filtrate was again evaporated to the thickness of a syrup and allowed to cool for a few days in an ice box, crystalls were separated out in about 5% yield, which formed colorless columns, M. P. 142.deg., from methanol and had the formula $C_{6}$ $H_{12}$ $O_{5}$. On heating it with acetic acid anhybride and sodium acetate, its tetraacetyl derivative $C_{6}$ $H_{8}$ $O_{5}$(C $H_{3}$CO)$_{4}$ was obtained and which formed colorless needles, M. P. 62-5.deg., from ethanol. Their melting points, results of elementar analysis and other characteristics agreed with that of Polygalitol and its derivative. Finally they were proved to be identical with Polygalitol and its derivative, respectively, through determination of mixed melting points with the samples. Polygalitol was isolated from several plants of genus polugala e. g. P. amara, P. vulgaris, P. teunifolia, P. senega etc. The authors added to them another instance of identifying Polygalitol from the plant of genus polygala.olygala.

Soy protein was isolated from Korean soy bean 'Chang ryub' and chemically modified with succinic anhydride. Functionality of the soy protein isolate(SPI), succinylated SPI(SPPI), and PP590(commercial) at various pH were investigated. The mechanical and sensory properties of soy bean curds made from several mixing ratio of succinylated soy bean milk were observed. The solubility of SPI significantly increased with succinylation. The solubility of PP590 was lower than that of SSPI. The solubility of SPPI increased significantly in 0.03M CaCl2 solution. The emulsifying activity of SSPI increased. On the range of pH above pI the emulsifying activity of PP590 was higher than that of SPI. There was no difference in emulsion stability among the groups. The foam expansion capacity of SPPI increased at higher pH than pI but the foam stability decreased significantly above pH 9. Mechanical texture profile analysis revealed the modified soy bean curds had the lower hardniss, chewiness and cohesiveness with increased modification. The mechanical characteristics of modified soy bean curds revealed generalized Maxwell Model of 7-elements or 5-elements. In sensory evaluation, the hardness, the springiness and acceptability of modified soy bean curds were lower significantly than those of control soy bean curd.

To prepare freeze-dried ascorbyl palmitate (AsP)-containing liposome which can protect the drug from moisture attack and be used instantly by mixing with water for anti-aging and skin whitening therapy, AsP was encapsulated into liposomes and freeze-dried with trehalose. The freeze-dried liposome formulations were characterized by measuring water contents, particle size, time required for complete reconstitution. With the freeze-dried liposomes, we performed the stability test under accelerated conditions, skin permeation and localization test. The measurement of the time to perfect reconstitution showed that the freeze-dried liposomes can be changed to their initial state rapidly and short term stability test of AsP in reconstituted liposomes under accelerated conditions confirmed that the stability of AsP was considerably enhanced as compared to freshly prepared liposomes. The skin permeation and localization properties of AsP in reconstituted liposomes were not significantly different, indicating that the liposomal structures were maintained before and after freezedrying. In conclusion, the freeze-drying method provided a possible way to overcome the instability issue of AsP induced by the moisture and reproduced similar skin permeation and localization properties as shown by freshly prepared liposomes.

This study aims to investigate and improve the carbon dioxide sequestration capability and the mechanical properties of non-hydraulic low calcium silicate cement especially designed for CO₂ reaction and ordinary Portland cement subjected to the carbonation curing facilitating pH swing method. Nitric acid (HNO₃) was utilized as an liquid for the mixing of cement paste to enhance the initial dissolution of Ca ions from the cements by promoting low pH environment and prevent the direct precipitation of Ca with the anion, owing to the high solubility of Ca(NO₃)₂ in water. The results presented that the higher the concentration of HNO₃, the higher the compressive strength and CO₂ sequestration (until 0.1 M). Ca dissolution caused by the harsh acid attack onto the anhydrous cement particle lead to the higher carbonation reaction degree, forming abundant CaCO₃ crystals after the reaction. However, cement paste mixed with excessively high concentration of HNO₃ presented deterioration due to the too harsh pH environment and abundant NO₃- ions which are known to retard the reaction of cement.

This study has been executed to understand the additional and removal processes of nutrients in the Saemangeum Salt-water Lake, and discussed with other monthly-collected environmental parameters such as water temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, suspended solids, and Chl-a from 2008 to 2010. $NO_3$-N, TP, $PO_4$-P, and DISi showed the removal processes along with the salinity gradients at the surface water of the lake, whereas $NO_2$-N, $NH_4$-N, and Chl-a showed addition trend. In the bottom water all water quality parameters except $NO_3$-N appeared addition processes indicating evidence of continuous nutrients suppliance into the bottom layer. The mixing modelling approach revealed that the biogeochemical processes in the lake consume $NO_3$-N and consequently added $NH_4$-N and $PO_4$-P to the bottom water during the summer seasons. The $NH_4$-N and $PO_4$-P appeared strong increase at the bottom water of the river-side of the lake and strong concentration gradient difference of dissolved oxygen also appeared in the same time. DISi exhibited continuous seasonal supply from spring to summer. Internal addition of $NH_4$-N and $PO_4$-P in the river-side of the lake were much higher than the dike-side, while the increase of DISi showed similar level both the dike and river sides. The temporal distribution of benthic flux for DISi indicates that addition of nutrients in the bottom water was strongly affected by other sources, for example, submarine ground-water discharge (SGD) through bottom sediment.

This study aimed to investigate preferences for sous-vide cooked jabchae between Korean and Chinese consumers according to sauce mixing proportion. To commercialize sous-vide cooked jabchae and localize it for overseas circumstances in the Korean and Chinese markets, consumers' subjective preferences for sous-vide cooked jabchae were investigated especially in 119 Korean consumers (55 males and 64 females) and 136 Chinese consumers (70 males and 66 females). For jabchae samples, this study set up three different mixture rates of soy sauce and sugar, 8% (LSS), 13% (MSS), and 18% (HSS), and three different salad oil rates, 0% (LO), 12% (MO), and 24% (HO), to propose nine kinds of samples. As a result of consumer preferences, for Koreans, MSS and HSS regardless of oil content were significantly high in overall, appearance, saltiness, sweetness preferences, and purchase intention (P<0.001). In addition, for oiliness preference, LSS, MSS, LO, and MO were significantly high (P<0.001). For Chinese, HSS, MO, and HO were significantly high in overall, flavor preference, and purchase intention (P<0.001). For saltiness and sweetness preference, regardless of oil content, saltiness preference was significantly high in HSS and sweetness in MSS and HSS (P<0.001). For oiliness preference, regardless of content of soy sauce and sugar mixture, LO and MO were significantly higher, and for appearance preference, there was no significant difference among all samples (P<0.01). In general, both Korean and Chinese tended to prefer MS and HO, irrespective of oil content. Especially for Koreans, LSS was the least favorite sample in almost all preference questionnaires. For Chinese, preference scores for LSS and HSS were higher than for Koreans. On the other hand, oil content did not have much effect on consumer preference as compared with contents of soy sauce and sugar mixture.
