본고에서는 산업적으로 효용가치가 막대함에도 불구하고 아직까지 에너지원으로만 사용되고 있는 프로판을 불균일계 촉매를 사용하여 고부가화시키는 방안에 대하여 다루고자 한다. 특히 프로판으로부터 생산 가능하면서도 경제적 가치가 뛰어난 물질이라고 판단되는 프로필렌 및 아크릴로니트릴을 중심으로 서술하였다. 프로필렌의 경우 지금까지 프로판 탈수소화반응을 통하여 제조 가능하였으나 열역학적인 한계를 극복하기 위하여 산소, 이산화탄소 등의 산화제를 이용하는 산화적 탈수소화반응에 대한 현황을 논하였다. 한편 암모니아첨가 산화반응을 통하여 제조할 수 있는 아크릴로니트릴은 지금까지 출발물질로서 프로필렌을 사용하였으나 저렴한 가격에 공급이 가능한 프로판을 원료로 사용하는 경우 경제적 가치가 뛰어나다. 최근 프로판의 암모니아첨가 산화반응에 성능이 우수한 $MoVTeNbO_x$ 촉매가 개발되었지만 그에 대한 추가 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 상기 반응들에 있어서 최대의 관건은 성능이 우수한 불균일계 촉매를 개발하는 것으로서, 촉매 개발 시 파일럿 규모 이상의 공정에 적용시킬 수 있을 것으로 전망한다.

친환경적 바이오 계면활성제의 하나인 람노리피드(rhamnolipid)의 제조는 Pseudomonas aeruginos 계열의 박테리아가 가장 많이 사용되며, 바이오 공정을 통해 생산된다. 람노리피드의 화학구조는 rhamnose당과 𝛽-hydroxylated fatty acid의 결합으로 이루어져 있으며, 바이오 공정을 통해 동질체 혼합물 형태로 생산된다. 발효(fermentation)공정 중 거품 제어가 수율을 결정하는 가장 중요한 요인으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는, 박테리아 내부에서 일어나는 람노리피드 합성 메카니즘을 소개하였고, 발효공정에서 문제점으로 인식되었던 거품 제어 방법에 대한 최근 시도들을 살펴보았다. 10년 전과 비교하여, 람노리피드 양산화 가능성은 빠르게 높아지고 있다. 특히, 람노리피드와 같은 바이오 계면활성제는 의약품과 같은 고부가가치 제품으로 응용된다면, 시장의 요구가 더 커질 것으로 기대한다.

The study has attempted to introduce a new coating than the conventional standardized method of spray, padding and roll coating. The study has focused on finding condition for separating water and organic layer in marble bath and surface effects according to kind of raw hide. It was found that dyestuff-free was to be used in water layer and the input amount of initial insoluble pigment to be added in marble bath should be adjusted following the change of surface area of the marble bath in order to get efficient marble effect while preventing coagulation of water and organic layers. Eventually, amorphous high value-added leather could be obtained treated in process other than the conventional standardized method. Even raw hides of low grades($C{\sim}E$ grades) could be processed into amorphous marble effect that could conceal or shield surface scratches by the colorant, which eventually eliminated necessity of using excessive amount of chemicals in the coating process leading to achieving high quality marble leather of natural look.

Starting as a glutamate producer, Corynebacterium glutamicum has played a variety of roles in the industrial production of amino acids, one of the most important areas of white biotechnology. From shortly after its genome information became available, C. glutamicum has been applied in various production processes for value-added chemicals, fuels, and polymers, as a key organism in industrial biotechnology alongside the surprising progress in systems biology and metabolic engineering. In addition, recent studies have suggested another potential for C. glutamicum as a synthetic biology platform chassis that could move the new era of industrial microbial biotechnology beyond the classical field. Here, we review the recent progress and perspectives in relation to C. glutamicum, which demonstrate it as one of the most promising and valuable workhorses in the field of industrial biotechnology.

Complicated and expensive seawater desalination technology is a big challenge in boron removal process. Conventional seawater desalination process of coagulation utilized for pre-treatment is difficult to remove boron. Boron can be removed more effectively in Reverse Osmosis (RO) process than any other processes. In this study, a coagulant with the name Mineral Cluster was examined its boron removal ability. Boron removal efficiency of Mineral Cluster depended on pH value and Mineral Cluster dosage. Desalination process combines the pre-treatment process with Mineral cluster diluted at the ratio of 1:2500 and the RO membrane process. The original sea water could be desalinated to drinking water quality, 1 mg/L, without any pH adjustments. Therefore, if the Mineral cluster is added without any other chemicals for adjusting pH, the desalination process would be much safer, efficient and economical.

Fast-grown wood generally contains a high proportion of juvenile wood that results in inferior dimensional stability and durability against biological deteriorations. In the present research, the Acacia mangium wood from plantation forests in Vietnam was treated with high temperature in air. The effects of heat treatment on physical properties of Acacia mangium wood, including mass loss (ML), water absorption (WA), water-repellent effectiveness (WRE) and anti-swelling efficiency (ASE) were examined. The results showed that the dimensional stability and the water-repellent effectiveness are increased by about 15-46% and 8-18%, respectively. However, the mass and dimension of wood are decreased. The results also indicated that both treatment temperature and treatment duration significantly affect the wood properties of Acacia mangium. It is thus concluded that heat treatment demonstrates an interesting potential to improve the wood quality of Acacia mangium for solid timber products. This technology provides an environmentally safe method of protecting sustainable common woods to give a new generation of value-added biomaterials with increased stability without the use of toxic chemicals.

To reduce the consumption of chemicals and ultra pure water(UPW) in cleaning process used in device manufacturing, we proposed wet processes that use electrolytic ionized water(EIW), which is generated by electrolysis of a diluted electrolyte solution or UPW and systemically investicate the EIW\`s characteristics. EIW\`s pH values are increased in cathode chamber and decreased in anode chamber according to the electrolysis time and its varied ratio is reduced with time increasement. The variation of pH and ORP is increased accordin to the applied voltage until critical voltage. But more than that voltage, the variation is decreased because of ion\`s scattering effect. When electrolyte is added, the effects of electrolysis is increased because electrolyte acts as catalyst. But when the density of electrolyte is increased more than critical value, ion\`s flowage is obstructed and the effects of electrolysis is decreased.

CO₂ electroreduction is considered as a means to overcome climate change by converting CO₂ into value-added chemicals and liquid fuels. Although numerous researchers have screened versatile metal for the use of electrodes, and looked into the reaction mechanism, it is still required to develop highly enhanced electrocatalyst for CO₂ reduction to reach beyond lab-scale. Plasma treatment applying onto the surface of meal electrodes could improve activity, selectivity and stability of the electrocatalysts. This review highlights the effect of plasma pretreatment, and provides insight to design suitable CO₂ electrocatalyst.

Methane is one of the major greenhouse gases, recently, the biotechnological conversion from methane to high-value added chemicals have emerged as an effort to reduce methane gas emission. In this study, we optimized ectoine bio-milking conditions in which cells were repeatedly used to improve intracellular and extracellular ectoine yield from methane by using Methylomicrobium alcaliphilum 20ZDP2. First, the cultivation and intracellular ectoine accumulation conditions were optimized with respect to the growth phase and medium salinity to achieve the highest yield of synthesis. Second, ectoine excretion was optimized by determining the ectoine secretion time (15 min) in appropriate medium salinity under hypoosmotic conditions (1% NaCl). Finally, bio-milking of ectoine was successfully repeated more than 10 times using M. alcaliphilum 20ZDP2, and the ectoine yield was improved up to 129.29 mg/ DCW g.
