Malodor emitted while producing fertilizer from hatchery egg waste treated with microorganism is an important limiting factor. To reduce this problem, we attempted to use two yeast strains, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, KACC 30008 and KACC 30068. Both yeast strains reduce ammonia gas emission 35.4% than only treated with bacterium, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. When both strains were used together, that was reduced as 57.1%. KACC 30008 and 30068 strains reduced hydrogen sulfide 42 and 90.4%, respectively. Both strains together reduced hydrogen sulfide gas as 98.5%. KACC 30008 did not decrease methyl mercaptan emission. However KACC 30068 decreased 40% and both strains together decreased the gas emission as 66.7%. Overall, this study showed that yeast treatment could enhance the effect of B. amyloliquefaciens treatment in the reduction of malodorous gas emission.

An efficient pilot scale (10 ton) three-stage methane fermentation system to digest food waste has been developed in this laboratory. This system consisted of three stages: semianaerobic hydrolysis, anaerobic acidogenesis and strictly anaerobic methanogenesis. From the secondary acidogenesis reactor, a novel strain KA4 responsible for alcohol fermentation was isolated and characterized. The cell was oval and its dimension was $5.5-6.5{\times}3.5-4.5\;{\mu}m$. This strain was identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae KA4 by 26S rDNA D1/D2 rDNA sequence. Optimal culture temperature was $30-35^{\circ}C$. Cells were tolerant to 5% (v/v) ethanol concentration, however, were inhibited significantly by higher ethanol concentration up to 7%. The strain could grow well up to 50% (w/v) initial glucose concentration in the YM liquid medium, however, optimal concentration for ethanol fermentation was 10%. It could produce ethanol in a broad initial pH range from 4 to 10, and optimal pH was 6. In this condition, the strain converted 10% glucose to 7.4% ethanol during 24 hr, and ethanol yield was estimated to be 2.87 moi EtOH/mol glucose.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of liquid fertilizer containing humic acid and Saccharomyces cerevisiae broth (LHS) on changes of turfgrass growth by investigating visual quality, chlorophyll content, dry weight of clipping, and nutrient content in leaf tissues. Treatments were designed as follows; control fertilizer (CF), HS-1 ($CF+1.0mL\;m^{-2}\;LHS$), HS-2 ($CF+2.0mL\;m^{-2}\;LHS$), and HS-3 ($CF+4.0mL\;m^{-2}\;LHS$). After treatment of LHS on creeping bentgrass, soil pH in the treated plots was decreased than that of CF. As compared to CF, visual quality, chlorophyll content and content of N, P and K were not significantly different in the LHS treatments. However, clipping yield and phosphorus uptake of HS-2 were significantly increased by 22% and 33%, respectively. These results showed that application of LHS improved the phosphorus uptake and growth of creeping bentgrass, which would be an alternative management tool for the cool season turfgrass under stress conditions.

For increasing the consumption of pear, the pear wines were made by using eight different kinds of yeast. The chemical properties, such as pH, acidity, ethanol and sugar contents, and the consumer acceptance of various pear wines were analyzed. In analysis result of chemical properties, the value of pH was decreased and the acidity was increased until few days, and then retained during fermentation. The ethanol content was increased and the sugar content was decreased during fermentation. The pear wine brewed by B yeast (Lalnin, Saccharomyces cerevisiae) among eight different kinds of yeast had the highest content of ethanol, also this wine was represented the most consumer acceptance by the panels who consist of two age groups such as 20's to 30's and 50's to 60's. Therefore, we chose the yeast B for analyzing the effect of additives during fermentation. As the additives, the $K_2S_2O_5$ and ammonium phosphate as the disinfectant and hemicellulase and pectinase as fermenting conditioner were added into the pear wine brewed by yeast B. When additives are added, the chemical properties were the same as followed. Te values of pH was lower than when additives were not added(control). The acidity was he highest when ammonium phosphate was added, but the acidity was not changed after 4 day fermentation. Sugar contents when added $K_2S_2O_5$ 350ppm was shown the fastest deceasing, and it was orderly decreased as control, ammonium phosphate, hemicellulase, pectinase, and $K_2S_2O_5$ 175ppm. The decreasing rate of sugar content of these 6 test groups during fermentation gradually decreased without a big changes and the after 7 day fermentation, sugar contents were seldom decreased and the final sugar content was $9.5{\sim}9.8^{\circ}Brix$. In terms of change of the content of ethanol, all test groups generated 11~12.4% ethanol after 7 day fermentation. The group where ammonium phosphate was added generated 12.4% alcohol, which is the fastest speed and the group, which hemicellulase additive was added, showed generally slow alcohol generation rate. In terms of ethanol contents, the non-additive group and $K_2S_2O_5$ additive group showed 0.05%, which is very low, and hemicellulase and pectinase additive group is more than 0.5% which is rather high.
