The possibility of citron seed oil for use as food resources of fats was tested by analyzing the composition of fatty acid and oxidative stability. Oil yield from citron seed was 55.4% in without roasting and 56.8% with roasting. Total mineral content in citron seed without and with roasting were 2,820.33 mg/kg, 1,702.55 mg/kg, respectively. For all citron seed oils tested, the potassium content was found to be the highest among four kinds of minerals detected in this study. Further, major fatty acids detected in the citron seed oils were linoleic acid, oleic acid and palmitic acid. Their relative contents with respect to total fatty acid contents were 77.12% in without roasting and 67.67% in with roasting. This result indicated that roasting the citron seed decreased the acid contents. However, POV (peroxide value) and acid value of citron seed oils were in,.eased significantly with increasing the storage days and heating time. In details, POV was $84.17{\pm}1.68meq/kg$ in without roasting and $76.46{\pm}1.19meq/kg$ with roasting, after 28 days. Acid value was $9.52{\pm}0.27mg\;KOH/g,\;8.35{\pm}0.09mg\;KOH/g$, respectively, After the 48 hours heating at $180^{\circ}C$, POV of citron seed oils was increased by 3.8 times, irrespective of roasting. Yet, acid value increased dramatically 8.3 in without and 6.4 times with roasting, exhibiting its dependence on roasting. During storage time, oxidative stability of citron seed oils was higher than heating.

$CO_2$ Monitoring, Mitigation and Verification (MMV) is the essential part in the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) project in order to assure the storage permanence economically and environmentally. In large-scale CCS projects in the world, the seismic time-lapse survey is a key technology for monitoring the behavior of injected $CO_2$. In this study, we developed a basic process procedure for 3-D seismic baseline data from the Aquistore project, Estevan, Canada. Major target formations of Aquistore CCS project are the Winnipeg and the Deadwood sandstone formations located between 1,800 and 1,900 ms in traveltime. The analysis of trace energy and similarity attributes of seismic data followed by spectral decomposition are carried out for the characterization of $CO_2$ injection zone. High trace energies are concentrated in the northern part of the survey area at 1,800 ms and in the southern part at 1,850 ms in traveltime. The sandstone dominant regions are well recognized with high reflectivity by the trace energy analysis. Similarity attributes show two structural discontinuities trending the NW-SE direction at the target depth. Spectral decomposition of 5, 20 and 40 Hz frequency contents discriminated the successive E-W depositional events at the center of the research area. Additional noise rejection and stratigraphic interpretation on the baseline data followed by applying appropriate imaging technique will be helpful to investigate the differences between baseline data and multi-vintage monitor data.
