This study was carried out to offer basic information on the wood anatomy of domestic yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.), a new plantation species selected by Korea Forest Service as one of the promising hardwood and bioenergy sources of the future, through comparison of stem wood with root wood in the qualitative and quantitative features. In the qualitative anatomical features, growth rings were distinct in stem wood but relatively less distinct in root wood. And stem wood appeared to have pores in radial multiples of 2 to 5, sometimes clusters but root wood to have pores in radial multiples of 2 to 3, rarely clusters. And numbers of bars in scalariform perforation plates were somewhat numerous in vessel elements of root wood than in those of stem wood. Interestingly, on the other hand, more extraneous materials in the wood rays of tap root than in those of lateral root and stem were confirmed in the chemical composition analyses. In the quantitative anatomical features, pore densities were significantly greater but vessel elements were considerably narrower in stem wood than in root wood. Vessel elements and wood fibers of root wood were considerably longer than those of stem wood. Rays were somewhat more numerous in stem wood than in root wood, and only ray heights of stem wood were more or less greater in cell numbers but both ray heights and widths of stem wood were lower in dimension than those of root wood. The anatomical differences between stem wood and root wood were thought to be associated with different growth environments between the stem above ground and the root below ground.

The electron beam irradiation was applied as a pretreatment of the enzymatic hydrolysis of yellow poplar with doses of 0$\sim$450 kGy. The higher irradiation dose resulted in the more degradation of hardwood biomass not only from carbohydrates but also from lignin. This changes originated from the irradiation resulted in the better response to enzymatic hydrolysis with commercial cellulases (Celluclast 1.5L and Novozym 342). The more improvement on enzymatic hydrolysis by the irradiation was found in the xylan than in the cellulose of yellow poplar.

In modern societies, people spend most of their time indoors and the temperature and humidity controlled by electrical appliances have a considerable effect on their emotions and health. However, improper operation of the artificial facilities frequently creates substances that are harmful to our body. The importance of controlling the natural humidity of interior materials has therefore attracted significant attention. This study was aimed at quantifying the hygroscopic property of some interior finishing wooden materials. Dried and heat-treated yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) lumbers, oriented strand board, and plywood were selected for this experiment. The moisture adsorption and desorption rates of wooden materials were measured (ISO 24353). Furthermore, the effects of morphological, physical and chemical factors, such as surface microstructure, roughness, and functional groups, on the hygroscopicity were evaluated. The results of this study should contribute to improved accuracy of hygroscopic-property assessments performed on wooden interior materials.

백합나무를 원료로 바이오 에탄올을 생산하기 위하여 알칼리 가수분해 처리 후 잔재물을 상업용 혼합 셀룰라아제(Celluclast 1.5L과 Novozym 342)를 사용하여 효소당화 후, 발효하여 바이오 에탄올을 생산하였다. 알칼리 가수분해 후 51.1%의 목재 성분이 회수 되었으며, 이중 셀룰로오스가 82.2%, xylan이 17.6%와 리그닌 2.0%의 조성을 보였다. 백합나무의 알칼리 가수분해과정에서 셀룰로오스 96.9%, xylan 38.0%, 리그닌 5.7%가 잔류하였다. 알칼리 가수분해 잔류물을 상업용 혼합 셀룰라아제에 의한 효소 당화결과, 셀룰로오스의 glucose 전환율은 87.0%였으며 xylan의 xylose로의 전환율은 87.2%였다. 분해된 단당류를 발효효모를 사용하여 바이오 에탄올을 생산하였는데 Saccharomycess cerevisiae 균주는 대부분의 glucose를 발효에 사용하였고, 0.4-1.4%의 소량의 glucose만을 잔류 시킨데 대하여, xylose의 경우는 92.1-99.5%가 잔류하여 이 균주는 발효과정에서 xylose를 거의 사용하지 않았다. 24시간 발효에서 에탄올의 농도는 57.2 g/L수준이었지만 발효 균주에 의한 에탄올 소비로 인하여 48시간 및 72시간 발효에서 에탄올 농도가 각각 56.2 g/L와 54.3 g/L로 점차 감소하였다.

국산 산공재 중 구조적 특징이 목재흡음에 적합하다고 생각되는 백합나무 목재 횡단면의 흡음성능과 기체투과성의 방사방향 변동과 폭쇄처리 영향을 관찰하고자 무처리와 폭쇄처리 목재원반에서 방사방향위치가 다른 원형시험편을 채취하여 전달함수법과 CFP (capillary flow porometry)법으로 흡음율과 기체투과성을 각각 측정, 비교하였다. 측정주파수범위에서 폭쇄처리 횡단면의 흡음율이 무처리재보다 높은 흡음성능을 나타내었으며 횡단면에서는 대경 도관이 다수 존재하여 다공질형흡음에 유용한 연속된 모세관이 다량 존재하는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 방사방향으로는 심재부위에서 채취한 시험편보다 변재부위에서 채취한 시험편의 흡음계수가 높은 흡음율을 나타내었으며, 기체투과성도 변재부위가 심재부위보다 높은 수치를 나타내었다.

This study was conducted to analyze the pore structure of Yellow poplar. Cross-sectional surfaces of heartwood and sapwood of Yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) were observed by SEM, and the true density of the heartwood, intermediate wood and sapwood were measured by gas pycnometery, while gas permeability and pore size of heartwood, intermediate wood and sapwood were measured by capillary flow porometery. The pores were classified as through pore, blind pore and closed pore. It was determined that the permeability was increased due to the content and size of through pore being increased although the total porosity of specimen showed slight difference from pith to bark. The content of through pore porosity was 33.754 % of heartwood and 47.810 % of sapwood, showed an increasing trend from pith to bark, however, those for the blind pore porosity and closed pore porosity were 27.890 % and 19.492 % for heartwood and 19.447 % and 4.660 % for sapwood, showed a decreasing trend from pith to bark. The max pore size of specimens was increased by about 5 times from $5.927{\mu}m$ to $31.334{\mu}m$, and mean flow pore size was increased by about 315 times from $0.397{\mu}m$ to $12.437{\mu}m$ from pith to bark.

Effects of elevated air temperature and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) concentration on the leaf surface structures were investigated in Liriodendron tulipifera (yellow poplar) and Populus tomentiglandulosa (Suwon poplar). Cuttings of the two tree species were exposed to elevated air temperatures at $27/22^{\circ}C$ (day/night) and $CO_2$ concentrations at 770/790 ppm for three months. The abaxial leaf surface of yellow poplar under an ambient condition ($22/17^{\circ}C$ and 380/400 ppm) had stomata and epicuticular waxes (transversely ridged rodlets). A prominent increase in the density of epicuticular waxes was found on the leaves under the elevated condition. Meanwhile, the abaxial leaf surface of Suwon poplar under an ambient condition was covered with long trichomes. The leaves under the elevated condition possessed a higher amount of long trichomes than those under the ambient condition. These results suggest that the two poplar species may change their leaf surface structures under the elevated air temperature and $CO_2$ concentration condition for acclimation of increased photosynthesis.

Size reduction is one of the major pre-processing operations in using biomass as a source of energy or raw materials for forest products industry. The grinding characteristics of dried yellow poplar wood chips were investigated using laboratory knife mill with three different screen aperture diameters to provide the basic information for the optimizing of size reduction processes in biomass industry. Average specific energy consumptions were 0.157, 0.137, and 0.093 Wh/g for the screen aperture diameters of 5.0, 7.5, and 9.0 mm, respectively. According to the results of size distribution analysis of ground particles, the sizes of the most of ground particles were much smaller than the aperture diameters of the screens installed on knife mill used in this study.
