혐기성 소화 시 산발효 단계에서 지질 성분이 부분적으로 분해되고 지질 내 이중 결합이 포화됨을 통해 후단의 메탄발효 효율이 향상됨이 보고된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 혐기성 연속 회분식 반응조(anaerobic sequencing batch reactor, 이하 ASBR) 및 연속 흐름 교반 반응조(continuously stirred tank reactor, 이하 CSTR) 형태의 산생성조를 각각 운전하여 지질 분해 및 독성 저감 효율을 살펴보았다. 기질로는 두 가지 불포화(oleate and linoleate), 두 가지 포화(palmitate and stearate) 지방산(long-chain fatty acids, 이하 LCFA)로 구성된 LCFA 혼합물을 사용하였다. 반응조 내의 높은 미생물 보유량에 의해 ASBR이 수리학적 체류시간(hydraulic retention time, 이하 HRT) 12 hr 이하에서 우월한 성능을 보였다. HRT 9시간에서 ASBR은 36.7%의 LCFA 분해, 14.3%의 이중결합 포화, 43.8%의 산생성 효율을 보였으며, 이는 HRT 15시간의 CSTR 보다 각각 19%, 10%, 21% 높은 수치였다. 지질 함유 폐수의 혐기성 소화 시 ASBR을 이용한 산발효가 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.

N-acyl-homoserine lactone quorum sensing (AHL-QS) has been shown to regulate many physiological behaviors in Serratia marcescens MG1. In the current study, the effects of AHL-QS on the biosynthesis of acid and neutral products by S. marcescens MG1 and its isogenic ${\Delta}swrI$ with or without supplementing exogenous N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone ($C_6-HSL$) were systematically investigated. The results showed that swrI disruption resulted in rapid pH drops from 7.0 to 4.8, which could be restored to wild type by supplementing $C_6-HSL$. Furthermore, fermentation product analysis indicated that ${\Delta}swrI$ could lead to obvious accumulation for acidogenesis products such as lactic acid and succinic acid, especially excess acetic acid (2.27 g/l) produced at the early stage of fermentation, whereas solventogenesis products by ${\Delta}swrI$ appeared to noticeably decrease by an approximate 30% for acetoin during 32-48 h and by an approximate 20% for 2,3-butanediol during 24-40 h, when compared to those by wild type. Interestingly, the excess acetic acid produced could be removed in an AHL-QS-independent manner. Subsequently, quantitative real-time PCR was used to determine the mRNA expression levels of genes responsible for acidogenesis and solventogenesis and showed consistent results with those of product synthesis. Finally, by close examination of promoter regions of the analyzed genes, four putative luxI box-like motifs were found upstream of genes encoding acetyl-CoA synthase, lactate dehydrogenase, ${\alpha}$-acetolactate decarboxylase, and Lys-like regulator. The information from this study provides a novel insight into the roles played by AHL-QS in switching from acidogenesis to solventogenesis in S. marcescens MG1.

An interspecific fusant strain, Streptomyces MS1 was obtained by protoplast fusion between S. peucetius subsp. caesius and S. platensis. We studied on the fermentation characteristics of the fusant strain. The fermentation products of the fusant MS1 was identical with S. peucetius, but its production of anthracycline was more stable than S. peucetius under various fermentation conditions in regard to acidogenesis of fermentation broth. The optimal medium composition for anthracycline production by fusant MS1 as follows: sucrose 2.0%, glucose 1.0%, soytone 0.7%, $CaCO_3$ 0.2%, $KH_2PO_4$ 0.013%, casamino acids 0.01%, $K_2SO_4$ 0.025%, $MaCl_2\;6H_2O$ 1.024%, 5M $CaCl_2\;5H_2O$ 0.4%, 1N NaOH 0.7%, 20% L-proline 1.5%. In this condition, the productivity of anthracycline was $80{\sim}100\;{\mu}g/ml$.

용해성 glucose를 기질로 하여 혐기성 산발효조에서 동역학정수에 대한 온도의존성을 검토하였다. 온도범위는 $15^{\circ}C$에서 $30^{\circ}C$이며, 포화정수$(K_s\upsilon)$와 증식수율(Y)은 온도의 상승에 따라 감소하였지만, 최대비기질소비속도$(\upsilon_{max})$는 증가하였다. 기질소비속도와 균체 증식속도의 온도보정인자$(Q_{10})$ 값은 각각 1.3에서 2.2, 1.5에서 2.2의 범위를 보였다. 최대비기질소비속도$(\upsilon_{max})$가 증식수율(Y) 보다 온도의 변화에 대하여 더 민감하였다. $20^{\circ}C$에서 $30^{\circ}C$까지의 온도영역에서 체류시간과 기질농도의 관계에 대한 시물레이션 모델은 $1/SRT={(6.53){\cdot}(1.038)^{T-20}{\cdot}(S/X)}/{(1.38){\cdot}(0.983)^{T-20}+(S/X)}$이다.

A packed bed reactor (PBR) was fed with nitrate containing synthetic wastewater or effluent from a sequencing batch reactor used for nitrification. The C source introduced into the PBR consisted of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) produced from anaerobic acidogenesis of food wastes. When nitrate loading rates ranged from $0.50\;to\;1.01\;kg\;N/m^{3}{\cdot}d$, the PBR exhibited $100{\sim}98.8%\;NO_{3}^{-}-N$ removal efficiencies and nitrite concentrations in the effluent ranged from $0\;to\;0.6\;NO_{2}^{-}-N\;mg/L$. When the PBR was further investigated to determine nitrate removal activity along the bed height using a nitrate loading rate less than $1.01\;kg\;N/m^{3}{\cdot}d$, 100% nitrate removal efficiency was observed. Approximately 83.2% nitrate removal efficiency was observed in the lower 50% of the packed-bed height. When reactor performance at a C/N ratio of 4 and a C/N ratio of 5 was compared, the PBR showed better removal efficiency (96.5%) of nitrate and less nitrite concentration in the effluent at the C/N ratio of 5. VFAs were found to be a good alternative to methanol as a carbon source for denitrification of a municipal wastewater containing 40 mg-N/L.

음식물 쓰레기로부터의 연속 수소 생성 실험을 다양한 수리학적 체류시간(HRT; 18, 21, 24, 30, 36, 42 h)에서 수행하였다. 음식물쓰레기는 분쇄와 알칼리 처리를 거쳐 27.0 g COD/L(average VS 4.4%)의 농도로 fed-batch 형태로 주입되었으며, 반응조 내의 pH는 $5.3{\pm}0.1$ 이상으로 유지되었다. 126일 간의 운전을 통해 유기성 폐기물로부터의 연속 수소 생성이 안정적으로 진행될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 수소 생성 효율은 HRT에 따라 변하였으며, 30 h에서 가장 높은 수치를(25.8 mL $H_2/g\;VS_{added}$, 0.36 mol $H_2/mol\;hexose_{added}$, 0.91 L $H_2/L/d$) 보였다. 대부분의 조건에서 가장 양이 많은 부산물은 노말부티르산이었으며, 수소생성이 증가함에 따라 노말부티르산의 생성이 증가하였다. 이소프로판을 역시 수소 생성과 관련이 있는 나타났다. 반면, 아세트산의 생성량은 수소생성과 반대되는 경향을 보여 수소 소모 아세트산 생성 경로로 발생되는 양이 많았다고 사료된다. 한편 산발효 효율은 $53.3{\sim}65.7%$인 것으로 나타나 기존 산 발효를 수소발효가 대체할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Landfill leachate is one of highly contaminated and heterogeneous wastewater. The leachate from initial landfill can be treated by anaerobic process because it contains biodegradable matters, particularly, volatile fatty acids (VFAs). However, the anaerobic treatment of leachate is generally required longer hydraulic retention time (HRT) than aerobic process and another treatment process to satisfy effluent concentration. Therefore the modification of conventional anaerobic treatment is needed. Two phase anaerobic membrane process (TPAMP) is an integrated membrane process to be able to separate anaerobic metabolism into two phase which are acidogenesis and methanogenesis for improvement of anaerobic treatment efficiency. In this study, the efficiency of TPAMP and conventional anaerobic treatment were compared in terms of HRT, effluent SCOD, VFAs Membrane used in TPAMP was the UF of capillary type with the surface area of $0.048m^2$. The average effluent SCOD of conventional anaerobic treatment was 1352 mg/L and the removal was 96 % at HRT 60 days, while in TPAMP, 927 mg/L and 98% at HRT 30 days.

The effect of microwave irradiation on waste activated sludge was investigated in order to improve solubilization. a different levels of microwave irradiation time were varied within a range from 1 min to 15 min. When WAS was pretreated at 1, 3, 5, 7, and 15 min, the SCOD concentration increased according to microwave irradiation time. A simple batch procedure was used to measure the VFA potential, i.e. the amount of VFA that can be formed through digestion of organic constituent in sludge. At equilibrium point, TVFA in the case of 1, 3, 5, 7 and 15 min microwaved sludges was 8%, 122%, 243%, 279% and 232% higher than that in the case of raw sludge, respectively.
