토양으로 부터 diaminododecane 자화균 DAD2-2주를 분리하여 검토한 결과 Corynebacterium속으로 동정되었으며 DAD2-2주의 alkane 유도체에 대한 생육특성조사에서 putrescine dihydrochloride, dodecanethiol, dodecane. laurylamine등은 탄소원으로 이용될 수 있었으나 thioanisole, decanedithiol, dicyanooctane, 1aurylcyanide, dichlorodecane등은 이용되지 못하였다. Emulgen 25ppm을 DAD배지에 첨가하였을 경우 DAD2-2주에 의한 diaminododecane 자화가 현저하게 촉진되었으며 diaminododecane자화시 생성되는 중간생성물은 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate로 동정되었다. 그러나 diaminododecane을 탄소원 뿐만 아니라 질소원으로도 이용하였을 경우에 있어서는 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate와는 다른 생성물을 생성하였으며 diaminododecane 대신 glucose, putrescinc, n-dodecane을 생육기질로 이용하였을 때에도 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate와는 다른 생성물을 생성하였다. 또한 resting cell을 이용하여 alkane 유도체를 co-oxidation시키는 과정에서도 ethyl $\alpha$-ketoglutarate와는 상이한 생성물이 생성되었다.

최근 대체에너지에 대한 관심이 높아짐에 따라 수소에너지를 기반으로 하는 차세대 발전 장치인 연료전지 관련 기술 개발이 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 특히, 고온 연료전지의 대표적인 형태인 용융 탄산염 연료전지(MCFC: Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell, 이하 MCFC)는 전력사업용으로의 높은 가능성을 인정받아 화석연료를 대체할 발전방식으로 평가 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Aspen Custom Modeler($ACM^{TM}$)에서 평형반응식을 이용하여 스택 모델을 구성한 후, Aspen $Plus^{TM}$에서 BOP(Balance of Plant) 시스템과 스택을 연결하여 전체 MCFC 발전 시스템의 정상상태를 모사하였다. 모델의 유효성을 입증하기 위해서 전류밀도, 연료이용률, S/C ratio, 재순환 흐름 비와 같은 주요 조업변수에 따른 셀 전압, 전력, 효율 등 시스템의 성능을 분석하였다. 그리고 Aspen $Dynamics^{TM}$에서 PID제어 방식을 적용하여 제어루프를 구성하였고 부하변화, 설정점 변화, 재순환 흐름비 변화에 따른 각각의 사례연구를 통하여 전체 시스템의 성능변화를 예측하였다. 그 결과 연료이용률과 전류밀도의 변화에 따른 전체 시스템의 최대 발전 효율 및 출력전압을 위한 운전조건을 제안하였다.

Micro reactors are increasingly being considered for utilization as distributed power sources. Hence, the probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) of a direct supercritical-CO₂-cooled fast reactor, called micro modular reactor (MMR), was performed in this study; this reactor was developed using innovative design concepts. It adopted a modular design and passive safety systems to minimize site constraints. As the MMR is in its conceptual design phase, design weaknesses and valuable safety insights could be identified during PSA. Level 1 internal event PSA was carried out involving literature survey, system characterization, identification of initiating events, transient analyses, development of event trees and fault trees, and quantification. The initiating events and scenarios significantly contributing to core damage frequency (CDF) were determined to identify design weaknesses in MMR. The most significant initiating event category contributing to CDF was the transients with the power conversion system initially available category, owing to its relatively high occurrence frequency. Further, an importance analysis revealed that the safety of MMR can be significantly improved by improving the reliability of reactor trip and passive decay heat removal system operation. The findings presented in this paper are expected to contribute toward future applications of PSA for assessing unconventional nuclear reactors in their conceptual design phases.

This study was conducted for the efficient utilization of a scoria, which is abundantly found in Cheju island, as adsorbent and the scoria was examined for its performance in clarification of adsorption of heavy metal ions. The order in heavy metal ions adsorbed on scoria was; Pb+>Cd^{2+}$>Cu^{2+}$>Ag^+$>Co^{2+}$>Zn^{2+}$>Cr^{3+}$>Cr^{6+}$. This tendency was relatively consistent with the decreasing order of radius of hydrated metal ion. Also, the smaller scoria size and the larger amounts of scoria showed higher removal efficiency for heavy metal ions. The same scoria size showed more effective removal efficiency for heavy metal ions at lower initial concentration than at higher initial concentration. The adsorption abilities of original scoria and chemically treated scoria were compared. Adsorption isotherm of scoria was generally obeyed to Freundlich formula than langmuir formula and Freundlich constant, than was obtained in the range of 0.2~0.4.

A commercially important alkaline protease, produced by Bacillus sp. RRM1 isolated from the red seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii (Doty) Doty ex Silva, was first recognized and characterized in the present study. Identification of the isolated bacterium was done using both biochemical characterization as well as 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The bacterial strain, Bacillus sp. RRM1, produced a high level of protease using easily available, inexpensive agricultural residues solid-state fermentation (SSF). Among them, wheat bran was found to be the best substrate. Influences of process parameters such as moistening agents, moisture level, temperature, inoculum concentration, and co-carbon and co-nitrogen sources on the fermentation were also evaluated. Under optimized conditions, maximum protease production (i.e., 2081 U/g) was obtained from wheat bran, which is about 2-fold greater than the initial conditions. The protease enzyme was stable over a temperature range of 30-$60^{\circ}C$ and pH 6-12, with maximum activity at $50^{\circ}C$ and pH 9.0. Whereas the metal ions $Na^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, and $K^+$ enhanced the activity of the enzyme, others such as $Hg^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Fe^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, and $Zn^{2+}$ had rendered negative effects. The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by EDTA and enhanced by $Cu^{2+}$ ions, thus indicating the nature of the enzyme as a metalloprotease. The enzyme showed extreme stability and activity even in the presence of detergents, surfactants, and organic solvents. Moreover, the present findings opened new vistas in the utilization of wheat bran, a cheap, abundantly available, and effective waste as a substrate for SSF.

Study on clean and efficient utilization technology for low rank coal with high moisture content is actively ongoing due to limited reserves of petroleum and of high grade coal and serious climate change caused by fossil fuel usage. In the present study, supercritical water gasification of low rank coal was performed. With increasing reaction temperature, content of combustible gases such as $H_2$ and $CH_4$ in the syngas increased while the $CO_2$ content decreased. As the reaction pressure increased from 210 to 300 bar, the $CO_2$ content in the syngas increased while the hydrocarbon gas content decreased. The $H_2$ and $CH_4$ content in the syngas increased slightly with pressure. With the addition of Pd, Pt, and Ru catalysts, it was possible to improve the production of $H_2$. Moreover, the increase of active metal content in the catalyst increased the $H_2$ productivity. The Ru catalyst shows the best performance for increasing the $H_2$ content in the syngas, while decreasing the $CO_2$ content.

Currently, the genetic modification of Aspergillus oryzae is mainly dependent on protoplast-mediated transformation (PMT). In this study, we established a dual selection marker system in an industrial A. oryzae 3.042 strain by using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation (ATMT). We first constructed a uridine/uracil auxotrophic A. oryzae 3.042 strain and a pyrithiamine (PT)-resistance binary vector. Then, we established the ATMT system by using uridine/uracil auxotrophy and PT-resistance genes as selection markers. Finally, a dual selection marker ATMT system was developed. This study demonstrates a useful dual selection marker transformation system for genetic manipulations of A. oryzae 3.042.

This study was carried out to examine the effects of animal manure on efficiency of the nitrogen utilization of silage corn (Zea mays L.) and soil fertility. The experiment was conducted on the field plot at Gongiam, Kwangju, Kyunggi-Do for 3 years, from 1996 to 1998, and arranged in split-plot design with three replications. The main plots were two kinds of composts such as swine manure fermented with sawdust (SMFWS) and swine manure fermented without sawdust (SMF). Subplots were the nitrogen fertilization rate (0, 100, 200, 300 and 400kgNhalyear). The nitrogen (N) yield increased as the nitrogen fertilization rate increased up to a rate of 300 kg Nha, but decreased at rate of 400 kg Nlha. Nitrogen yield in SMF treatments was higher than that of SMFWS treatments. But there were no significant differences between SMFWS and SMF treatments. Organic matter (OM) content of the soils in SMFWS was higher than that of SMF, &d was not significantly different between SMFWS and SMF treatments. OM content increased with increasing the nitrogen fertilization rate. Total nitrogen (TN) content of the soils increased as the nitrogen fertilization rate increased. No difference of TN content was found between SMFWS and SMF treatments. (Key words : Swine manure, Compost, Corn, Sawdust, Nutritive value)
