상대적으로 이산화탄소 배출량이 적으며, 기존의 천연가스를 대체할 수 있고, 21세기 신 에너지원으로 기대되고 있는 메탄 하이드레이트(Methane hydrate)는 태평양과 대서양의 대륙사면 및 대륙붕, 남극대륙의 주변해역 등지에서 자연적으로 발생한 메탄 하이드레이트의 분포가 확인되었으며, 그 매장량의 1조 탄소톤 이상으로 기존 화석연료의 매장량이 5천억 탄소톤, 대기중의 메탄가스가 3억 6천만 탄소톤임을 고려할 때 2배에 이르는 막대한 양이라고 보고하였다. 따라서 메탄 하이드레이트는 화석에너지를 대체할 수 있는 차세대 청정 에너지 또는 대체 에너지원으로서의 무한한 잠재력을 가지고 있어 새로운 에너지분야로 크게 주목을 받고 있다. 또한 하이드레이트는 $172m^3$의 메탄가스와 $0.8m^3$의 물로 분해된다. 만약, 특성을 역으로 이용하여 산업적으로 고체화 수송을 할 경우 화수송보다 18-24%의 비용절감이 이루어질 것으로 예상되어진다. 그러나 메탄 하이드레이트를 인공적으로 만들경우 물과 가스의 반응율이 낮아 하이드레이트 형성시간이 상당히 길고 가스 충진율도 낮다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 하이드레이트를 빨리 만들며 가스 충진율도 증가시키기 위하여 증류수와 다공성물질이며 나노세공(Nano pore)을 가지고 있는 제올라이트를 증류수에 첨가하고, 초음파 분산하여 만든 혼합유체를 메탄가스와 반응시켜 하이드레이트 형성 실험을 수행하여 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 0.01 wt% 제올라이트 혼합유체에서 증류수보다 하이드레이트가 훨씬 빨리 생성되었으며, 메탄가스소모량은 ${\Delta}T_{subc}$=0.5K에서 약 4배 높음을 보였다.

The effects of fermentation conditions and medium compositions on the production of vitamin $B_{12}$ by Propionibacterium shermanii IFO 1239 were studied. Changes from an anaerobic to aerobic condition and a complex to synthetic medium after 48hr resulted in a 100% increase in vitamin $B_{12}$ production compared to an anaerobic culture alone. Glucose, fructose and lactose were found to be equally good as a carbon source for vitamin $B_{12}$ production. Addition of succinate and malate to the synthetic medium with glucose as a carbon source led to an increase in vitamin $B_{12}$ production by 33.6% and 17.2% respectively.

Ten denitrifying bacteria, which were identified as Pseudomonas sp., were isolated from Winogradsky columns. The most effective denitrifying bacterium was named as Pseudomonas CW4, which was cultivated at anoxic condition. The optimal growth temperature and pH were 3$0^{\circ}C$ and 6-8, respectively. The effect of carbon concentration and agitator speed on the rate of denitrification were very low. 100% of NO$_3$-N was removed after 15 hrs when initial concentration of NO$_3$-N was 142.5 mg/L.

${\alpha}$-L-Arabinofuranosidase was purified from the culture supernatant of Bacillus sp. DSNC 101. The enzyme had a molecular weight of 56 kDa. Optimum temperature and pH for ${\alpha}$-L-arabinofuranosidase activity were 55$^{\circ}C$ and 7.0 respectively. The Michaelis constant(Km) and maximal reaction velo-city(Vmax) for p-nitrophenyl-${\alpha}$-L-arabinofuranoside were 1.0 mM and 113.6 U/mg protein, respe-ctively. ${\alpha}$-L-Arabinofuranosidase was completely inhibited by HgCl$_2$ and CuSO$_4$. The enzyme was spe-cific for the ${\alpha}$-linked arabinoside in the furanoside configuration. The enzyme was produced during growth on agricultural residue such as rice straw, but not during growth on spelt xylan, glucose or cellobiose.

Catechol type siderophore different from 2, 3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) was produced from Acinetobacter sp. B-W grown in medium containing L-glutamic acid as both carbon and nitrogen sole sources at $28^{\circ}C$. Optimal concentration of glutamic acid for siderophore production was 3% and production of siderophore was decreased above 3% glutamic acid. In previous report, siderophore, 2, 3-DHB was produced from strain B-W grown in medium containing glucose as carbon source and glutamic acid as nitrogen source. Rf value of siderophore produced from strain B-W grown in medium glutamic acid as both carbon and nitrogen sole sources at $28^{\circ}C$ was 0.32, while 2, 3-DHB was 0.84 in butanol-acetic acid-water (12:3:5) as developing solvent. Antioxidative activity of 2, 3-DHB was not detected in that siderophore produced from glutamic acid. Catechol nature of siderophore was detected by Arnow test. Although in iron-limited media optimal cell growth was identified at $36^{\circ}C$, significant quantities of siderophore were produced only at $28^{\circ}C$. Biosynthesis of siderophore was strongly inhibited by growth at $36^{\circ}C$. Production of siderophore was completely inhibited by $10{\mu}M\;FeCl_3$.

In this energy and environment conscious age, methanol has come to attention increasingly since the well established process is commercially available to produce methanol from abundant low grade carbonaceous resources ; methane, carbon dioxide, coal and biomass etc. Methanol is a Clean energy source which is a readily storable and transportable liquid. It is elaborated to correlate power generation, city gas and chemical feed stocks including transportation fuel, enhancing the national efficiency of resource utilization as well as reducing the environmental problems for the future via C1 technology. It is emphasized that $CO_2$ could be used to produce methanol as a mean of hydrogen storage as in the nature, which will alleviate the environmental problem such as green house effect.

A Gram-type negative bacteria that can utilize crude oil as the sole source of carbon and energy was isolated from an activated sludge of a local sewage treatment plant and identified tentatively as belonging to the genus Acinetobacter. The isolate could degrade n-alkanes and unidentified hydrocarbons in crude oil and utilize n-alkanes, hydrophobic substrates, as sole carbon and energy sources. n-Alkanes from tridecane (Cl3) to triacontane (C30) in crude oil were degraded simultaneously with no difference in degradation characteristics between the two close odd and even numbered alkanes in carbon numbers. The linear growth of the isolate and the degradation characteristics of Pr-alkanes suggested that the transport of substrates from the oil phase to the site where the substrates undergo the initial oxidation in microorganism might be the rate limiting in the biodegradation process of crude oil constituents. The remainder fraction of substrates after cultivation was considered to reflect the hydrocarbon inclusions in the cell mass, characteristics in Acinetobacter species, and to control the transport of substrates from crude oil phase. On the basis of the results, the isolate was considered to play an important role in the degradation study of hydrophobic environmental pollutants.

Zoogloea ramigera 115 was cultured for biopolymer production and its bioflocculant usages. Cultural conditions of the organism were examined with regard to high production of the microbial polysaccharide. The most suitable medium was found to contain glucose as a carbon source, $NaNO_3$ as a nitrogen source, and yeast extract as an organic nutrient. The initial pH of 6.0 proved to optimal. The biopolymer was extracted effectively using ultrasonication and high speed centrifugation, followed by propanol addition. Jar test results indicate that the polysaccharide produced by the organism is an effective flocculant.

아직까지 국내에서 사용하는 대부분의 에너지는 화석연료에 의존하고 있다. 지하자원에서 나오는 석탄, 석유와 같은 화석연료는 다른 에너지원에 비해 운송이 간편하고 쉽게 이용할 수 있는 장점이 있지만, 환경오염의 문제성과 오일가상승, 자원의양 및 저장장소가 한정되어 있다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 따라 수소와 같은 대체에너지를 이용하여 환경오염을 예방하고 무한히 사용할 수 있는 에너지원을 개발하기 위한 대체 방안들이 연구되고 있다. 폐기물 가스화시 발생되는 합성가스(CO, $CO_2$, $CH_4$, $H_2$) 내 일차로 생성된 일산화탄소는 수증기와 반응함으로써 이산화탄소로 전환이 가능하다. 잔류 메탄은 이산화탄소를 이용하여 개질함으로써 합성가스내 수소농도를 높일 수 있다. 전환된 잔류가스(CO, $CO_2$, $H_2$)내 일산화탄소는 산소를 이용하여 이산화탄소로 산화시킬 수 있으며, 산화된 이산화탄소는 흡착제를 이용하여 제거가 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 실제 가스화시 발생되는 합성가스를 이용하기 위하여, RPF가스화시 발생되는 합성가스를 직접 포집하여 실험을 진행하였다. 합성가스내 소량의 메탄은 니켈촉매를 이용하여 수소로 전화시켰으며, 잔류하는 일산화탄소는 백금촉매, 이산화탄소는 탄산나트륨 흡착제를 이용하여 연속적으로 제거함으로써 순수한 수소를 제공하였다.

Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris DLAB19 were investigated under various culture conditions to maximize the production of antimutagenic substance(s) against aflatoxin Bl(AFBl) on Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium TAI00 and TA98. The MRS medium containing glucose(2$\%$) as a carbon source and yeast extract(1 $\%$) as a nitrogen source resulted in the highest production of the antimutagenic substance(s) against aflatoxin Bl(AFBl) in the culture supernatant of Leu. mesenteroides subsp. cremoris DLAB19. Optimal pH of the medium, culture temperature and shaking speed for the antimutagenic substance(s) production were pH 7.0, 30$^{\circ}C$ and 150 rpm, respectively. Under the optimal condition, the antimutagenic effects of Leu. mesenteroides subsp. cremoris DLAB19 culture supernatant were 87.11 $\%$ on S. enterica serovar Typhimurium TA100 and 75.04 S. enterica serovar Typhimurium TA98.
