  • In this study various nutritional and environmental parameters such as, initial moisture content, pH. inoculum size, air rate, sample size and nutrient supplement that influence pigment production were evaluated in solid-state cultures. optimum initial moisture content and pH were determined to be 50% and 6.0, respectively. The supplement of the substrate with different carbon, nitrogen, and mineral source reveals a more inhibitive effect as the substrate concentration increase. optimum aeration rate was determined to be 2vvm in flask culture. The maximum amount of red pigment, 3500 OD/g dried fermented rice, was obtained in optimum conditions which is obtained in solid flask culture.

  • The study on the fermented feeds production of garbages have been conducted to determine the optimum operation condition. The process variables considered for this study were initial air flow rate and temperature control. The results showed that optimum air requirement was $4{\ell}-air/min{\cdot}kg-$ garbages on dry weight basis which is equal to $0.8{\ell}-air/min{\cdot}kg-$ garbages on the basis of 80% moisture content. The optimum initial temperature control in the reactor was $40^{\circ}C$. Crude fiber content of fermented final byproducts were higher than feedstuffs standard for pig breeding and consequently final byproducts had to mix with single-component feed.

  • In this paper, the properties of high-strength concrete are described with respect to materials and mix conditions(water-cement ratio, chemical admixture, replacement of fly ash). As primary purposes of this study, the optimum mix design method of high-strength concrete to decrease unit cement contents is investigated, and the properties of fresh and hardened concretes are tested in terms of slump, air content and compressive strength. As results of this study, workability and strength development of the high-strength concrete depend on the water-cement ratio, replacement ratio of fly ash and dosage of the chemical admixture. The conditions which are proposed optimum mix design of the high-strength concrete show W/C 37%, S/A 42~45% and unit cement content 470~480kg/$\textrm{m}^3$. Based on the results, the applicability of high-strength concrete in site is clearly proved.

  • To utilize deteriorated sweet persimmon effectively, response surface methodology(RSM) was used to determine the optimal vinegar fermentation conditions and monitored by a divided two stage fermentation. The optimum conditions for maximum alcohol content were obtained when the first stage (alcohol fermentation) was carried out with an initial sugar concentration of 18.5$^{\circ}$Brix, agitation rate of 140.8 rpm, fermentation time of 127.6 hr. When sugar concentration was 14$^{\circ}$Brix maximum alcohol content(7.1%) was predicted at fermentation conditions of 160 rpm in agitation rate, 140hr in fermentation time. The optimum conditions for maximum acidity were obtaiend when second stage(vinegar fermentation)was carried out 249.5 rpm in agitation rate, 148.8 hr in fermentation time. Predicted values at the optimum conditions were similar to experimental values.

  • This study was carried out to determine the effect of osmotic dehydration as pretreatment on the qualities of dried cherry-tomatoes. The weight reduction and solid gain in osmosed cherry-tomato were increased by increasing sugar concentration, immersion temperature and time; among three parameters, the immersion temperature affected more than sugar concentration and immersion time did. The moisture content was decreased as increasing sugar concentration, immersion temperature and time, and it was the lowest at the osmotic conditions of 7$0^{\circ}C$, 60$^{\circ}$Brix and 11hr. To determine the optimum processing condition by RSm, the polynomial optimum models were established. The regression models was significant (p<0.05). It was used contour plots to optimize osmotic dehydration. The optimum condition for osmotic dehydration as pretreatments for drying of cherry-tomatoes were immersion temperature of 47~53$^{\circ}C$, sugar concentration of 39~43$^{\circ}$Brix, and immersion time of 7hr, in which process conditions were 78~86% moisture content, 8.5~10$^{\circ}$Brix sugar content and 80~86% weight reduction.

  • The objective of this study was to establish the optimum alcohol fermenting conditions for the processing of kiwi wine and vinegar products. Six yeast strains were examined for their alcohol production from kiwi at $30^{\circ}C$ for 72 hr with continuous shaking at 100 rpm. Under these conditions, Saccharomyces kluyveri DJ97 produced the highest alcohol content of 10.2%. As the fermentation time extended to 96 hr, the alcohol content reached a maximum of 12.75%. The optimum alcohol fermenting conditions for kiwi fruit were accomplished when kiwi was added to an equal amount of water, inoculated with S. kluyveri DJ97 and fermented at $30^{\circ}C$ for 96 hr with continuous shaking. The content of soluble solids decreased as the alcohol concentration increased, whereas little change was observed in the pH and titratable acidity during the low temperature aging process. Other alcoholic compounds, such as methanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, isobutanol, and isoamylalcohol, tended to increase as fermentation progressed.

  • Using a simple continuous optical technique, coupled with measurements of zeta potential, the flocculation characteristics of kaoline suspensions of different content(15, 35 and 55 NTU) by several cationic polyelectrolytes, has been examined. The optimum mixing is obtained under a constant stirring of 200 rpm, differently from a general flocculation test. The charge density of a polyelectrolyte is important in determining the optimum dosage and in the removal of kaoline particles. The optimum dosage is less for the polyelectrolyte of higher charge density and is the same regardless of kaoline content. At the dosage, the removal of kaoline particles is higher for the polyelectrolyte of higher charge density and zeta potential of kaoline particles reaches to near zero. The rate of adsorption and flocculation rate have been found to be affected by charge density and molecular weight of a polyelelctrolyte and the content of kaoline particles.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the influences of polystyrene content and St/UP on the setting shrinkage and strengths of polymer mortar with waste expanded polystyrene resin as a shrinkage-reducing agent, and to recommend the optimum binder formulations for product of low-shrinkage polymer mortar. In this paper, polymer mortar is prepared with waste expanded polystyrene content and St/UP, and tested for setting shrinkage, flexural and compressive strengths. From the test results, irrespective of increasing of waste expanded polystyrene resin, the strengths reduction of polymer mortar with waste expanded polystyrene(EPS) resin is not recognized. And the setting shrinkage is reduced with EPS resin content. The waste expanded polystyrene resin as a shrinkage-reducing agent can be used in the same manner as commercial polystyrene resin. In this study, we can obtain the optimum mix proportions of polymer mortar using EPS resin.

  • The cetylpyridium ion-selective electrode were developed by dibenzo-18-crown-6 for auto control of the chemical plants. The effect of content of active material and the membrane thickness on the response characteristics of electrode such as the linear reponse range, the detection limit, and Nemstian slope of the electrod, were studied. The electrode characteristics was better with decreasing the content of active material above the optimum content, but became worse below these. DBP was best as a plasticizer, The effect of the membrane thickness on the electrode characteristics was improved with decreasing the membrane thickness, but below the optimum membrane thickness the electrode exhibited an inverse trend.
