In this research, a precipitation method was used to synthesize ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ powders with various particle morphologies and sizes under varying precipitation conditions, such as gallium nitrate concentration, pH, and aging temperature, using ammonium hydroxide and ammonium carbonate as precipitants. The obtained powders were characterized in detail by XRD, SEM, FT-IR, and TG-DSC. From the TG-DSC result, GaOOH phase was transformed to ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ at around $742^{\circ}C$, and weight loss percent was about 14 % when $NH_4OH$ was used as a precipitant. Also, ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ formed at $749^{\circ}C$ and weight loss percent was about 15 % when $(NH)_2CO_3$ was used as a precipitant. XRD results showed that the obtained $Ga_2O_3$ had pure monoclinic phase in both cases. When $(NH)_2CO_3$ was used as a precipitant, the particle shape changed and became irregular. The range of particle size was about $500nm-4{\mu}m$ based on various concentrations of gallium nitrate solution with $NH_4OH$. The particle size was increased from $1-2{\mu}m$ to $3-4{\mu}m$ and particle shape was changed from spherical to bar type by increasing aging temperature over $80^{\circ}C$.

Nitrogen is one of the most critical nutrients affecting cell growth and biochemical composition of microalgae, ultimately determining the lipid or carbohydrate productivity for biofuels. In order to investigate the effect of nitrogen sources on the cell growth and biochemical composition of the marine microalga Tetraselmis sp., nine different N sources, including NaNO₃, KNO₃, NH₄NO₃, NH₄HCO₃, NH₄Cl, CH₃COONH₄, urea, glycine, and yeast extract were compared at the given concentration of 8.82 mM. Higher biomass concentration was achieved under organic nitrogen sources, such as yeast extract (2.23 g L⁻¹) and glycine (1.62 g L⁻¹), compared to nitrate- (1.45 g L⁻¹) or ammonium-N (0.98 g L⁻¹). All ammonium sources showed an inhibition of cell growth, but accumulated higher lipids, showing a maximum content of 28.3% in ammonium bicarbonate. When Tetraselmis sp. was cultivated using yeast extract, the highest lipid productivity of 36.0 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹ was achieved, followed by glycine 21.5 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹ and nitrate 19.9 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹. Ammonium bicarbonate resulted in the lowest lipid productivity of 14.4 mg L⁻¹ d⁻¹. The major fatty acids in Tetraselmis sp. were palmitic, oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids, regardless of the nutritional compositions, indicating the suitability of this species for biodiesel production.

The purpose of this study is to study the $PM_{2.5}$ source characteristics affecting the Seoul area using a chemical mass balance (CMB) receptor model. This study was also to evaluate the $PM_{2.5}$ source profiles, which were directly measured and developed. Asian Dust Storm usually occurred in the spring, and very high $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations were observed in the fall among the sampling periods. So the ambient data collected in the spring and fall were evaluated. The CMB model results as well as the $PM_{2.5}$ source profiles were validated using the diagnostic categories, such as: source contribution estimate, t-statistic, R-square, Chi-square, and percent of total mass explained. In the spring months, the magnitude of $PM_{2.5}$ mass contributors was in the following order: Chinese aerosol $(31.7\%)>$ secondary aerosols ($22.3\%$: ammonium sulfate $13.4\%$ and ammonium nitrate $8.9\%)>$ vehicles ($16.1\%$: gasoline vehicle $1.4\%$ and diesel vehicles $14.7\%)>$biomass burning $(15.5\%)>$ geological material $(10.5\%)$. In the fall months, the general trend of the $PM_{2.5}$ mass contributors was the following: biomass burning $(31.1\%)>$ vehicles ($26.9\%$: gasoline vehicle $5.1\%$ and diesel vehicles $21.8\%)>$ secondary aerosols ($23.0\%$: ammonium sulfate $9.1\%$ and ammonium nitrate $13.9\%)>$ Chinese aerosol $(10.7\%)$. The results show that the $PM_{2.5}$ mass in the Seoul area was mainly affected by the Chinese area.

Iron계 금속 촉매의 존재 하에서 ABS의 열분해 거동을 TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis)를 통해서 조사하였다. Iron계 금속 촉매(ferric nitrate nonahydrate, ammonium ferric sulfate dodecahydrate, iron sulfate hydrate, ammonium ferric oxalate, iron(II) acetate, iron(II) acetylacetonate 및 ferric chloride)는 ABS의 열분해 과정에서 화학반응을 야기하여, 질소분위기에서 촤(char)형성이 관찰되었으며, $600^{\circ}C$에서 3~23 wt%의 비휘발성 촤를 형성하였다. 이와 같은 질소분위기에서의 ABS의 촤 생성은 iron계 금속 촉매의 가교효과(crosslinking effect)로 추정된다. 한편, 공기분위기에서는 생성된 촤가 고온 산화반응에 의해서 열분해되었다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of reaction pH conditions and hardener types on the reactivity, chemical structure and adhesion performance of UF resins. Three different reaction pH conditions, such as traditional alkaline-acid (7.5 → 4.5), weak acid (4.5), and strong acid (1.0), were used to synthesize UF resins which were cured by adding three different hardeners (ammonium chloride, ammonium citrate, and zinc nitrate) to measure adhesion strength. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C-NMR) spectroscopies were employed to study chemical structure of the resin prepared under three different reaction pH conditions. Adhesion strength of the resins cured with three different hardeners was determined with lap shear specimens in tension. The gel time of UF resins decreased with an increasing in the amount of both ammonium chloride and ammonium citrate added in the resins. However, the gel time increased for zinc nitrate. Both FT-IR and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopies showed that the strong reaction pH condition produce uronic structures in UF resin, while both alkaline-acid and weak acid conditions produce quite similar chemical species in the resins. The maximum adhesion strength was occurred with the resin prepared under strong acid pH condition. However, this study indicated that the weak acid reaction condition provide a balance between increasing resin reactivity and improving adhesion strength of UF resin. The measurement of formaldehyde emission from the panels bonded with the UF resins prepared is planned for future work.

우리나라 남해안에서 매년 유해 편모조류인 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조가 발생하고 있으며 많은 수산피해를 일으키고 있다. 본 연구는 본 종에 대한 적조발생기구를 구명하는데 있어 생물학적인 기초를 확립하기 위해 실시되었다. 실험실 배양실험을 통해 물리 화학적 환경요인에 대한 C. polykrikoides의 성장을 조사하였고, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 해양에서 발생하는 C. polykrikoides 자연군집의 동역학중에서 물리$\cdot$화학적 환경요인의 상대적인 중요성을 평가하기 위해 수온, 염분, pH, 조도 조건별로 무균배양을 통한 본 종의 성장을 조사하였다. 그 결과는 $25^{\circ}C,\;40\%_{\circ}$, pH 7.5, 7,500 lux에서 가장 성장률이 높았다. 그리고, $19\~28^{\circ}C$에서도 성장이 잘 이루어져 광온성(eurythermal) 종으로 확인되었으며, 발생해역의 염분 범위인$30\~35\%$의 환경조건을 만족하는, 즉 내만의 저염분 보다는 외양의 고염분 환경에서 발생하여 성장하는 종으로 확인되었고, 광염성 (euryhaline) 종이다. 그리고, 높은 일사량을 요구하며 현장해역의 pH 범위에서 성장이 원활히 이루어졌다. 무기태 영양염인 질소원으로 질산질소와 암모니아질소를, 인원으로 인산인을 이용하여 C. polykrikoides의 영양염에 대한 성장실험을 하였다. 그 결과, C. polykrikoides의 영양요구량은 질산질소, 암모니아질소, 인산인에 대해 각각 $40, 50, 5{\mu}M$이었고, 성장에 의한 반포화상수 (Ks)값은 각각 $2.10,\;1.03,\;0.57{\mu}M$로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과로부터 C. polykrikoides는 타와편모조류에서 보고된Ks 값보다 대체적으로 낮았고, 빈영양성 (oligotrophic) 종은 아니며, 부영양성 (eutrophic) 종에 해당하지만 암모니아질소 Ks 값은 뚜영양성 종보다 낮은 값을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 C. polykrikoides 적조는 내만의 부영양화된 해역보다는 부영양상태가 높아지고 있는 해역에서 발생할 가능성이 매우 높은 것을 나타낸다. 또한, C. polykrikoides는 질산질소보다 암모니아질소를 성장시 보다 유효한 영양염으로 선택하여 소비하였다 이것은 암모니아질소가 타 영양염보다 성장에 보다 중요한 요인으로 작용하며, C. polykrikoides 적조는 해양에서 증가한 암모니아질소 농도와 연관되는 것으로 나타났다.

Differences in DNA banding patterns, obtained by ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis (RISA), and nitrification were followed in a moving-bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) receiving municipal landfill leachate. Complete nitrification (>99%) to nitrate was obtained in the two-stage MBBR system with an ammonium load of 1.09 g N-$NH_4/m^2{\cdot}d$. Increasing the ammonium load to 2.03 g N-$NH_4/m^2{\cdot}d$or more caused a decline in process efficiency to 70-86%. Moreover, at the highest ammonium load (3.76 g N-$NH_4/m^2{\cdot}d$), nitrite was the predominant product of nitrification. Community succession was evident in both compartments in response to changes in ammonium load. Nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) supported by similarity analysis (ANOSIM) showed that microbial biofilm communities differed between compartments. The microbial biofilm was composed mainly of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), with Nitrosomonas europeae and N. eutropha being most abundant. These results suggest that high ammonium concentrations suit particular AOB strains.

The removal of nitrogen compounds from a wastewater is essential and it is often accomplished by bio-logical process. An aerobic nitrate-removing bacterium was isolated from a municipal sewage treatment plant and soil. On the basis of its morphological, cultural and physiological characteristics and 16S rRNA sequencing data, this strain was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens, and named as P. fluorescens K4. The optimal conditions of the initial pH and temperature of media for its growth were $7.0{\sim}8.0$ and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. P. fluorescens K4 was able to remove 99.9% of nitrate after 24 h in a culture. The strain could grow with a nitrate concentration up to 800 mg/l and was able to remove 99.9% of nitrate after 104 h of incubation. The optimal electron donor was sodium citrate for a nitrate removal. The strain K4 showed a capability of a complete nitrate removal when the initial C/N ratio was 1.0. An effect of the initial seed concentration was observed for a cell of 10% (v/v) for a nitrate removal. Especially P. fluorescens K4 could completely remove 200 mg/l ammonium for 3 days.
