  • In $\lambda$-Zap II vector system, a cDNA library was constructed for the developing secondary xylem mRNA from hybrid poplar, Populus nigra x maximowiczii. A cDNA clone of 1.5 kb in size, pOMTB1.4 encoding a lignin-bispecific O-methyltransferase was screened by plaque hybridization using a probe of 540 bp cDNA amplified by polymerase chain reaction from the cDNA library and identified by nucleotide sequencing. Its nucleotide sequence contains one open reading frame of 366 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence in comparison with that of Populus tremuloides showed the differences of 9 amino acids and revealed 85-99% homology among alfalfa, poplar and aspen.

  • SI process is one of the most advanced thermochemical water splitting cycles enabling mass production of hydrogen without emitting carbon dioxide when coupled to nuclear heat energy. The highest temperature (close to $1000^{\circ}C$) required in SI process is well matched with the outlet temperature of a coolant circulating a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor at around $950^{\circ}C$. In Section 3, some heat exchangers are included to recover heats from process flows at high temperature. In this work, we designed a heat exchanger based on the $1Nm^3/hr$ $H_2$ production capacity using commercial tools for chemical process design.

  • The effects of ozone (O$_{3}$) exposures on chlorophyll content of trembling aspen(Populus tremuliodes) rooted cuttings were studied. Ozone was treated with 100 ppb fumigation for 6 hours per day, for three consecutive days per week in open-top chamber. The ozone exposures caused severe foliage damage expressed in necrotic patches and extensive chlorosis. Degradation of chlorophyll was observed mostly in mature leaves. The chlorophyll response to ozone exposure maintained a similar pattern during all experimental seasons and plant materials, Significant genetic variation in O$_{3}$ responses was revealed by differences in sensitivies among clones.

  • 본 연구에서는 복합발전시스템의 외기온도 변화로 인한 출력저하 문제를 극복할 수 있는 LNG 냉열 이용 복합발전 시스템을 제안하였다. 본 연구에 의해 제안된 LNG 냉열 이용 복합발전 시스템의 타당성을 검토하기 위해 ASPEN과 GateCycle을 이용한 시뮬레이션 모델을 구성하였고, 모델에 의해 예측한 결과를 실제 발전소 성능시험결과와 비교하여, 본 시뮬레이션 방법의 예측정확도를 검증하였다. 본 시뮬레이션 방법을 토대로 LNG 냉열을 이용하여 가스터빈의 유입공기를 냉각시켰을 경우의 복합발전 시스템 성능변화를 분석하였다. 그 결과 LNG 냉열을 이용하여 유입 공기를 원하는 온도까지 냉각시켜 하절기에도 출력을 일정하게 유지시킬 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었고, 이를 위한 기스터빈과 LNG 간의 열교환기 설계기준도 제시하였다.

  • From the power plant in a steel plant, environment pollutants such as $SO_x$, $NO_x$, CO and $CO_2$ are emitted by combustion reactions of the fuels which are by-product gases, oil and liquefied natural gas(LNG). To reduce the amounts of the pollutants, it is important to build a predictive model for the emission of the pollutants. In this paper, model that predict the amounts of generated pollutants for the used fuel is developed by using Gibbs free energy minimization method[1] with the temperature correction technique. For some data set, the calculation results from this model are compared with the real emission amounts of $SO_x$, $NO_x$, and the result of the calculation by both ASPEN PLUS which is a commercial simulation software. This model shows good results and can be applied to other power plants.

  • The use of L-carbohydrates and their corresponding nucleosides in medicinal application has greatly increased. For example L-ribose has been much in demand as the starting material for curing hepatitis B. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was studied for the analysis of ribose and arabinose fractions from ion exchange chromatography (IEC). Dowex Monosphere 99 Ca/320 resin was packed in IEC to separate ribose and arabinose under various operating conditions. $NH_{2}$ and sugar HPLC columns were then used to analyze the fractions from the IEC column. Pulse input method (PIM) was also used to measure adsorption isotherms of ribose and arabinose in the Dowex column and HPLC columns. Experimental results and simulations by ASPEN chromatography were compared with fair agreement.

  • The new concept for liquefaction of natural gas has been designed and simulated in this paper. Conventional liquefaction cycles are usually composed with Joule-Thomson valves at lower temperature refrigerant cycle. The new concept of natural gas liquefaction is discussed. The main difference with conventional liquefaction process is the presence of the turbine at low temperature of MR (mixed refrigerant) cycle. The turbine acts as expander but also as an energy generator. This generated energy is provided to the compressor which consumes energy to pressurize refrigerants. The composition of the mixed refrigerant is investigated in this study. Components of the refrigerant are methane, propane and nitrogen. Composition for new process is traced with Aspen HYSYS software. LNG heat exchangers are analyzed for the new process. Heating and cooling curves in heat exchangers were also analyzed.
