환경보호 정책에 대응하고 보건 및 안전의 수준 향상을 위한 수용성 도료의 적용 시, 일부 도장 공정에서 도막 건조의 지연으로 sagging 현상이 발생하였다. 이러한 sagging 현상이 일어난 원인을 실험을 통해 분석한 결과, 도료가 갖는 고유의 yield stress와 더불어 습도 및 통기 상태 등의 시공 환경이 지배적인 영향을 미친다고 파악되었다. Sagging 현상의 재발을 방지하기 위해서는 높은 sagging 저항성을 갖는 도료의 선정뿐만 아니라 도장 공장의 적절한 온/습도 및 환기 제어가 선행되어야 한다.

Dried soymilk residue(SMR) which was prepared by washing with ethanol and acetone, followed by drying at $60^{\circ}C$ was investigated for its sorption characteristics and the relationship between moisture content and water activity when it was mixed with wheat flour. During storage at $20^{\circ}C$ and various RH, an excess sorption phenomena was observed for solvent treated and dried SMR before equilibrium reached. A simple equation of log(dw/dt)=b log t+log a, where t is storage time(hr) and w is %$(H_2O)$ was drived for sorption or desorption rate of dried SMR at RH range of 12%-92%. From sorption isothermifigure, the moisture content(Mi) could be calculated from water activity by the equation of Mi=b Aw+a. The proposed equation was proved to have better fitness than those of the Smith isotherm equation or Lang and Steinberg equation for the mixture of dried SMR and wheat flour.

This experiment was carried out to elucidate the drying characteristics of onion and dehumidifying effect of air using the silica gel and to reuse it by solar collector. The results were summarized as follows. 1. It takes 14hours to regenerate to silica gel of 8% moisture content from saturated silica gel in conditions of $28^{\circ}c$ temperature and 55% relative humidity. 2. When sample was recycled through solar collector, the result of drying was 1/2 times more efficient than that of mat drying. 3. Average thermal efficiency of solar collector was 25% during the experimental period. 4. Browning extent was reduced to 1/2 times at heated air blow drying system using drying chamber.

This work reports an oven drying test performed on weathered granite soil from Yecheon, Korea, in order to find an effective method for measuring the weight of pure soil particles. After samples were oven dried, weights measured following desiccation using the method specified by the Korean Industrial Standard (KS F) were compared with weights measured without prior desiccation. Soil samples exposed to air for 45 min after oven drying absorbed moisture from the air and gradually increased in weight. When a desiccator was used, results measured 30 s after exposure to air indicated weight increases of 0.103-0.735% (depending on the particle size of the soil) relative to equivalent samples measured without desiccation. Using a desiccator after oven drying leads to overestimation of the pure soil weight. Therefore, measuring the weight of a soil sample immediately after oven drying without using a desiccator can reduce the error of weight measurement.

In drying process, to minimize the quality degradation by improved drying process and pretreatment methods, carrots, cabbages and radishes were dried and rehydrated. Physico-chemical properties of product were analyzed to determine the optimum pretreatment method and drying models were applied to explain drying mechanisms. Microwave, steam and water were used prior to drying as blanching method. In consideration of physical properties, optimum treatment time was decided that microwave was 1 min, steam and water were each 10 min. Control, steam, water, microwave and osmotic dehydration were treated prior to drying as pretreatment individually, osmotic dehydration was lower than the other treatmemt in drying efficiency, but carotene content was higher than the others. The effect continued after rehydration. Ten panelists tested dried and rehydrated carrots. After rehydration, the quality of air dried product with osmotic dehydration was superior to freeze dried without treatment. The fittness of drying models were conducted in order to explain the mechanism of drying each process. Quadratic model was most fittable to explain during drying. However, in rehydration process, no fittable model was found.

To develop plain dried products of large anchovy, Engraulis japonica, lipid oxidation during drying of large anchovy and optimal drying condition were investigated. The moisture contents of large anchovy on 7 hrs dryness were $ 9.0{\%},\;34.0{\%},\;38.0{\%} and\;38.8{\%}\;in\;60^{\circ}C$ hot-air drying (wind velocity, 1.4m/sec), $40^{\circ}C$ hot-air drying (wind velocity, 1.4 m/sec), sun drying($30{\pm}5^{\circ}C$) and $20^{\circ}C$ cold-air drying (wind velocity, 3.1 m/sec), respectively. The cold-air drying depressed remarkably the lipid oxidation of large anchovy during drying, resulting from AV, POV, COV and the formation of browning pigment. The fatty acid composition of large anchovy was $35.8{\%} in saturates, 20.0{\%} in monoenes and 44.2{\%}$ in polyenes. Saturates and monoenes were increased in proportion to the increase of drying time, while polyenes were decreased. The contents of 20 : 5 and 22 : 6 of polyenes were decreased remarkably in proportion to the progress of lipid oxidation, while 14 : 0, 16 : 0, 16 : 1 and 18 : 1 of saturates and monoenes were increased. The changes in fatty acid compositions by drying conditions were remarkably clarified in sun drying, followed by $60^{\circ}C$ hot-air drying $40^{\circ}C$ hot-air drying and $20^{\circ}C$ cold-air drying in order.

This study was conducted to design and fabricate a heat pump that can produce some weather conditions similar to those of the dry season of the rough rice in Korea, and to investigate basic performances of the apparatus. During the drying test, the amount of energy consumption and drying characteristics were measured at four different temperature levels ranging between 20$^{\circ}C$ and 50${^{\circ}C}$. In the psychrometric chart, the freezing capacity and refrigerant circulation ratio of the heat pump were 173 kJ/kg and 49.6 kg/hr, respectively. Therefore, coefficient of performance was 5.5, which was superior to that of refrigerant R-22 (4.0) in standard refrigeration cycle. In addition, the time to reach target drying temperature (30${^{\circ}C}$) and relative humidity (40%) were 6 minutes and 7 minutes, respectively. Temperature differences between the drying temperature and the rice were 1.5${^{\circ}C}$ and 8.5${^{\circ}C}$ at the drying temperatures of 21.9${^{\circ}C}$ and 48.7${^{\circ}C}$, respectively. This result demonstrated that the increased temperature of the rice in the drying section decreased sufficiently in the tempering section. At the drying temperatures of 21.9, 30.7 38.8, and 48.7${^{\circ}C}$, drying rates were 0.29, 0.61, 0.85, and 1.26%/hr, respectively, which were similar to those of commercial dryer. In addition, the amounts of energy consumption were 325, 667, 692, and 776 kJ/kg, respectively. These results showed that this dryer saved up to 86% of energy consumption compared with the commercial dryer, which uses 4,000-5,000 kJ/kg of fossil fuel.

Drying curves for raw Alaska pollack seemed to follow typical food dehydration process with a very short initial settling down period. It was evident that there are some differences in drying rates between each part of fish body showing the highest drying rate for fish head followed by that for fish skin and that for flesh, presumably because of differences in water holding capacity of the components of each part. Specifically, the drying curve of fish flesh revealed that a boundary layer, thereby, a time period, existed which showed a big difference in moisture content and/or water activity as drying proceeds. The boundary layer in fish flesh with high moisture content between the layer contributes to reduce drying rate mainly as a consequence of protein aggregation resulting in hardening of fish flesh. The first boundary layer in this work appeared to show within several hours after initiation of drying. For Hwangtae, a naturally cyclic freeze-thaw dried and aged Alaska pollack which was popular in Korea, manufacturing process, it is clear that periodic moistening of boundary layer in fish flesh prohibits hardening fish flesh in boundary layer and enables steady moisture diffusion from inside of the fish flesh to surface of the fish body.

The uses of the polypropylene bulk bags having the loading capacities more than 500 kg are increasing in Korea recently as a storage container for rough rice. This study was performed to obtain the basic information on the changes of temperature and relative humidity in the bulk-bag-stored high moisture rough rice during waiting for drying. At the moisture content more than 22% on wet weight basis of paddy, the bulk-bag inside temperature rose up to more than $40^{\circ}C$ and then slid down during storage. For example, in case of Hwaseongbyeo, 26.5% moisture content of rough rice (MCRR) harvested at 46 days after heading (DAH) showed $54.5^{\circ}C$ of peak temperature at 66.8 hours after bulk-bag loading, 22.5% MCRR harvested at 52 DAH exhibited $42.0^{\circ}C$ at 81.1 hours, and 19.7% MCRR harvested at 55 DAH displayed $38.9^{\circ}C$ at 119.0 hours. There were a good linear relationship between peak temperatures of bulk-bag inside and moisture contents of paddy ($r^2$=0.89 in 2005, and 0.87 in 2006), while the slope and intercept of the linear regression equation was affected by the environmental conditions such as ambient temperatures and microbial flora. The peak temperatures increased with the rate of about $2.74-3.33^{\circ}C$ per every 1% increase of moisture content at higher moisture contents of paddy than 19%. The relative humidity varied depending on bulk-bag inside temperature and rough rice moisture content, and showed the range of 94.2% to 99.9% in the central point of the bulk-bag. The results suggested that a rapid drying treatment as soon as possible was needed to produce a good quality of rice when the paddy of high moisture more than 22% on wet basis was harvested in a bulk-bag especially at high ambient temperature.

In this study, shiitake mushrooms were dried by hot air, vacuum and freeze drying methods and theire physical properties were compared. Since the pore size affects the amount of absorption, the characteristics of water sorption were investigated at various humidities and temperatures. Results showed that the freeze dried product had the greatest pore area and the highest absorption capacity. However, all the dried samples showed similar quality. The browning degrees were severely changed with increased relative humidities and temperatures. Among these drying methods, the freeze drying gave the greatest change in browning degree. The GAB monolayer moisture contents of the dried shiitake mushroom were $5.3{\sim}7.7%$. The prediction model was also provided using parameters such as relative humidity, temperature and pore area.
