It is known that mackerel and pork belly release a strong odor in the process of roasting. We evaluated a dilution factor of odor arising during roasting mackerel or pork belly and the relative odor strength using several cooking tools and analyzed compounds causing odors with gas chromatograph/mass detector. Roasting pans used were grill with lid, electric grill without lid and general roasting pan, and a grill with lid can attach the activated carbon charcoal deodorant at the inside of lid. And all electric grills have a drip tray under the heater. We investigated characteristics of odor emission depending on the presence of water and deodorants in these cooking tools. Study has shown that roasting mackerel produces approximately 36 time more odors than roasting pork belly, and the reduced odor emission when roast with water. And it shows the reduced deodorant effect when cooked with water after attaching activated carbon charcoal in the cooking pan. Major odor causing compounds arising when cooking mackerel and pork belly were aldehydes with high boiling point such as octyl aldehyde with a low odor threshold value.

Titanium nitride was synthesized by reacting Ti powder with nitrogen gas using SHS method. In this process, the effects of nitrogen pressure, dilution with TiN, or additiion of titanium hydride(TiH1.924) on the conversion of Ti to TiN were investigated. In particular, much effects were given to solve the problem of the conversion drop due to partial melting and subsequent sintering of Ti parciels, by controlling combustion temperature and combustion wave velocity via mixing Ti powder with TiN or/and TiH1.924. For the diluted titanium powders with TiN, the conversion close to 100% was resulted when the nitrogen pressure was over 8atm and with diluent content of 60wt%, and the self-propagating reaction was not sustained when the diluent content was higher than 60wt%. For samples mixed to be 55wt% in Ti component in the mixture of Ti, TiH1.924, and 45% TiN, the conversion was closed to 100% when the amount of titanium hydride added was over 7wt% and the nitrogen pressure was higher than 5atm. The combustion reaction, however, was not sustained when titanium hydride added was more than 10wt%.

Silicon nitride films were deposited at $100^{\circ}C$ by using the catalytic chemical vapor deposition technique. The source gas mixing ratio, $R_N=[NH_3]/[SiH_4]$, was varied from 10 to 30, and the hydrogen dilution ratio, $R_H=[H_2]/[SiH_4]$, was varied from 20 to 100. The breakdown field strength reached a maximum value at $R_N=20$ and $R_H=20$, whereas the resistivity decreased in the same sample. The relative permittivity had a positive correlation with the breakdown field strength. The capacitance-voltage threshold curve showed an asymmetric hysteresis loop, which became more squared as $R_H$ increased. The width of the hysteresis window showed a negative correlation with the slope of the transition region, implying that the combined effect of $R_N$ and $R_H$ overides the interface defects while creating charge storage sites in the bulk region.

This paper presents deposition and characterizations of microcrystalline silicon ($\mu$ c-Si:H) films prepared by hot wire chemical vapor deposition at substrate temperature at 300$^{\circ}C$. The flow rates of $SiH_4$ gas are critical parameter for the formation of Si films with microcrystalline phase. We could obtain $\mu$ c-Si:H with columnar grain structure and volume fraction of 75% without H2 dilution. The electronic properties, hydrogen bonding configurations, and $H_2$ concentration inside the films are also strongly affected by $SiH_4$ flow rate, which is provided in this paper.

To investigate the effect of several bactericides and fungicides against fruit & vegetable decay grapefruit seed extract(GFSE) was tested in a dilution solution. GFSE was shown to be effective against decay and rind breakdown and to extend the shelf-life of fruits and vegetables during storage and tiansport. Antimicrobial efficiency of GFSE on a wide spectra of gram + & - bacteria, moulds and yeasts was demonstrated by the measurement of minimal inhibitory concentrations performed (Bacteria 10-500ppm, Fungi:250-1,000ppm, Yeasts:100-250ppm). GFSE was separated and extracted into water-soluble fraction, water-insoluble and non-dialyzed fraction to isolate the antimicrobial substances. The water-soluble fraction showed the most active antimicrobial effect. The antimicrobial substances were isolated by gas chromatography. As the result of the isolation using GC, Peak-D was found to be the antimicrobial compound in GFSE. The identification of the most antimicrobial substance was carried out by using GC-MS.

Hydrogen is a clean fuel and is used in many applications in power systems such as fuel cells. It has unique properties such as wide flammability, high burning velocity, and difficulty to liquefy, which lead to critical safety issues. Fire and explosion are the most frequently occurring accidents and one of the major reasons is autoignition. In the ignition process, the chemistry of hydrogen combustion depends mainly on radical pools, and the temperature at which chain-branching and terminating rates are equal is called the crossover temperature. This study addresses the homogeneous autoignition of diluted hydrogen-air mixtures to investigate the effects of dilution on the crossover temperature to prevent explosions in the future. The new criterion for crossover temperature is introduced by only hydrogen radicals to adjust more simply. The detailed calculations indicate that the crossover temperatures are low at high dilutions of carbon dioxide and nitrogen because the concentrations of active radicals are reduced when an inert gas is added. This result is expected to contribute to hydrogen safety and realize a hydrogen society in the future.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Dynamic Reaction Cell Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry (ICP-DRC-QMS) was characterized for the detection of the six naturally occurring calcium isotopes. The effect of the operating conditions of the DRC system was studied to get the best signal-to-noise ratio. This experiment shows that the potentially interfering ions such as $Ar^+$, ${CO_2}^+$, ${NO_2}^+$, $CNO^+$ at the calcium masses m/z 40, 42, 43, 44 and 48 were removed by flowing $NH_3$ gas at the rate of 0.7 mL/min $NH_3$ as reactive cell gas in the DRC with a RPq value (rejection parameter) of 0.6. The limits of detection for $^{40}Ca$, $^{42}Ca$, $^{43}Ca$, $^{44}Ca$, and $^{48}Ca$ were 1, 29, 169, 34, and 15 pg/mL, respectively. This method was applied to the determination of calcium in synthetic food digest samples (CCQM-P13) provided by LGC for international comparison. The isotope dilution method was used for the determination of calcium in the samples. The uncertainty evaluation was performed according to the ISO/GUM and EURACHEM guidelines. The determined mean concentration and its expanded uncertainty of calcium was ($66.4{\pm}1.2$) mg/kg. In order to assess our method, two reference samples, Riverine Water reference sample (NRCC SLRS-3) and Trace Elements in Water reference sample (NIST SRM 1643d), were analyzed.

Landfill gas (LFG) utilization in old landfill was estimated using LFG models. The results showed that Scholl Canyon model best described the LFG generation. LFG was extracted more than the amount of natural production which caused air inflow from outside that resulted in dilution of methane concentration and increase of oxygen concentration. It was negative for the LFG utilization. Therefore, to use LFG, the plan of stabilization by LFG extraction should be ineffective. The use of LFG will have no problem if LFG is extracted less than the amount of natural production which was estimated based on modeling. At 8 years elapsed from landfill, now, the amount of natural landfill gas production was decreased sharply. The plan for using LFG from old landfill is feasible if LFG is used for the less than the amount of natural production as a small scale even though for the aspect of efficiency, it was less economic than use of LFG just after closing landfilling and it was helpful for stabilization of landfill by LFG extraction.

A two-stage continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR)/trickling biofilter reactor (TBR) system was developed for the degradation of gas-phase trichloroethlene (TCE) using Methylosinus trichoporium OB3b. Mrthylosinus trichosporium OB3b was immobilized on activated carbons in TBR and the microbial growth reactor of a CSTR was coupled for the reactivation of the deactivated cells during TCE degradation. The effect of operation variables on TCE conversion and degradation rate were studied. At inlet TCE concentrations ranging from 10 to 80 $\mu$mol/L, TCE degradation rate was increased up to 525 mg TCE/Lㆍday with 75% conversion. The TCE degradation rates were also increased with increse in broth recycle flow rate, gas flow rate and dilution rate. When the temperature of TBR was changed from 3$0^{\circ}C$ to 15$^{\circ}C$, TCE degradation rate and TCE conversion were increased due to the enhanced TCE transfer from gas-phase. The two-stage reactor system was found to be stable and has been operated for more than 270 days.

The Present study attempted to analyze the fate of CO diffused into the circulating blood through the alveoli. Dogs were induced to CO poisoning by rebreathing CO gas mixture contained in Krog's spirometer, by closed circuit method, for 60 minutes. The spirometer was filled initially with 282 ml of CO and 20 liters of air and oxygen, so the composition of gases were arranged as 1.4% in CO and 50% in $O_2$ at the begining of the rebreathing. Oxygen was added corresponding to the utilization of $O_2$ by the animal in proceeding of the experiment. At 60th minutes of CO rebreathing, the concentration of CO in arterial blood and in mixed venous blood were analysed and compared with each other after the CO contents were corrected with the hematocrit measured in the arterial and mixed venous blood. The distribution of CO gas to other tissues was estimated by the analysis of CO diffused into the cystic bile and into the peritoneal gas pocket which was formed by injection of 300 ml air into the peritoneal cavity prior to the CO gas rebreathing. The blood volume was measured by dilution method using $^{51}Chromium$ tagged red cells. CO amount vanished in the animal body was calculated by subtraction of total CO content in blood stream and the CO remained in closed circuit breathing system from the CO amount given to the breathing system at the begining of the experiment. Results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. The content of CO corrected by the hematocrit value was slightly less in mixed venous blood than in arterial blood. The amount of CO diffused into the cystic bile and into the peritoneal cavity was averaged to 0.1% and 0.4% of the CO amount in 100 ml of blood, respectively. 2. For 60 minutes of CO rebreathing, CO-hemoglobin saturation reached about 77% at the 60th minutes, CO amount vanished in the experimental animal averaged 36.1 ml/dog/hr., or 21% of the total CO volume in the blood stream. The average vanishing rate of CO during 60 minutes of CO rebreathing per kg of body weight was 2.71 ml/hr. Production of CO measured in ten dogs under hypoxic condition averaged 0.023 ml/kg/hr. The major part of the CO vanished in the dogs seemed to be oxidized to $CO_2$ by various tissues of the animal. The conclusion might be delivered as such oxidation of CO to $CO_2$ by animal tissues can play a role in part of the process of recovery and protection of animal from CO-poisoning.
