방울토마토의 포장에 적합한 필름을 선택하기 위하여 기체 투과도가 다른 여러 가지 필름으로 방울토마토를 포장하고 저장하면서 포장내 기체 농도, 총균수, 효모 및 곰팡이 수, 중량 감소율, 부패율 등을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같았다. CPP와 PD961로 포장한 시험 구는 저장 기간 동안 계속 적으로 산소와 이산화탄소 농도가 계속적으로 변화하였으나 다른 포장재로 포장한 시험구는 저장 10일 경에 대체적으로 평형에 도달하였다. 저장 기간 중 중량 감소율은 PY85로 포장한 시험구가 가장 현저하였으며 다른 포장재로 포장한 시험구는 저장 20일까지도 1% 부근이었다. 포장 직후의 총 균 수는 $10^4$ CFU/g 부근이었으며, 이들은 대부분 곰팡이나 효모인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 저장 기간이 경과함에 따라서 대체적으로 미생물의 수는 증가하였다. CPP로 포장한 시험구는 저장 5일에는 총균수, 효모 및 곰팡이 수가 가장 적었으나 10일 이후에는 가장 많았으며, 저장 20일에는 총균수가 $10^{8}$ CFU/g이었으며, 효모 및 곰팡이 수는 $10^{7.97}$ CFU/g 이었다. 저장 기간 중 pH는 대체적으로 증가하였으며, 총산 및 가용성 고형물은 큰 변화가 없으나 대체적으로 감소하였다. 단지 PY85로 포장한 시험구는 저장 기간동안 지속적으로 총산과 가용성 고형물이 증가하였다. 저장 5일 이후에는MPD와 PY85를 제외한 시험구에서 부패가 발생하기 시작하였으며, CPP와 PD961로 포장한 시험구의 부패율이 대체적으로 높았다. MPD는 저장 20일에도 5.3%의 가장 낮은 부패율을 보였다.다.

To achieve the "low carbon green growth" vision, the first step is securing core technologies. Therefore, S&T policy direction for green technology development is urgently needed. As of 2008, investment in green technology (GT) development hovered around 10% of the government's total R&D budget. Thus, the Korean government developed a plan to increase that percentage to 15%, by 2013. To develop reasonable investment strategies for green technology development, targeted strategies that reflect technology and market changes by green technology area are needed. However, the overall planning and coordination of national GT development is currently split among, approximately, 10 government ministries. To establish an efficient green technology development system, the so-called "Green Technology R&D Council" should be launched in collaboration with the Presidential Committee on Green Growth and the National Science and Technology Council. Furthermore, to build a solid foundation for commercializing the outcomes of GT development projects and promote GT transfer, the government should undertake two initiatives. First, the government should reinforce GT R&D performance management, by establishing a GT R&D performance management and evaluation system. Second, the government should implement the "customized packaged support for promoting green technology business rights and commercialization" and present "e-marketplace for market-oriented green technologies". Creating a pan-ministerial policy for GT development policy would necessitate restructuring the HR(Human Resources) development system, which is currently separated by technology area. Based upon mid/long-term HR supply and demand forecasts, the government should design differentiated HR development projects, continuously evaluate those projects, and reflect the evaluation results in future policy development. Finally, to create new GT-related industries, the "Green TCS (Testing, Certification, and Standards) System" needs to be implemented. For objective evaluation and diffusion of R&D results by green technology area, a common standardization plan for testing, analysis, and measurement, like the "Green TCS", should be developed and integrated.

A fungal strain, Aspergillus terreus strain GA2, isolated from an agricultural field cultivating sweet sorghum, produced feruloyl esterase using maize bran. In order to obtain maximum yields of feruloyl esterase, the solid state fermentation (SSF) conditions for enzyme production were standardized. Effective feruloyl esterase production was observed with maize bran as substrate followed by wheat bran, coconut husk, and rice husk among the tested agro-waste crop residues. Optimum particle size of 0.71-0.3 mm and moisture content of 80% favored enzyme production. Moreover, optimum feruloyl esterase production was observed at pH 6.0 and a temperature of $30^{\circ}C$. Supplementation of potato starch (0.6%) as the carbon source and casein (1%) as the nitrogen source favored enzyme production. Furthermore, the culture produced the enzyme after 7 days of incubation when the C:N ratio was 5. Optimization of the SSF conditions revealed that maximum enzyme activity (1,162 U/gds) was observed after 7 days in a production medium of 80% moisture content and pH 6.0 containing 16 g maize bran [25% (w/v)] of particle size of 0.71-0.3 mm, 0.6% potato starch, 3.0% casein, and 64 ml of formulated basal salt solution. Overall, the enzyme production was enhanced by 3.2-fold as compared with un-optimized conditions.

The characterization of cytochrome P450 CYP125A13 from Streptomyces peucetius was conducted using cholesterol as the sole substrate. The in vitro enzymatic assay utilizing putidaredoxin and putidaredoxin reductase from Pseudomonas putida revealed that CYP125A13 bound cholesterol and hydroxylated it. The calculated K_D value, catalytic conversion rates, and Km value were 56.92 ± 11.28 μM, 1.95 nmol min^-1 nmol^-1, and 11.3 ± 2.8 μM, respectively. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis showed that carbon 27 of the cholesterol side-chain was hydroxylated, characterizing CYP125A13 as steroid C27-hydroxylase. The homology modeling and docking results also revealed the binding of cholesterol to the active site, facilitated by the hydrophobic amino acids and position of the C27-methyl group near heme. This orientation was favorable for the hydroxylation of the C27-methyl group, supporting the in vitro analysis. This was the first reported case of the hydroxylation of cholesterol at the C-27 position by Streptomyces P450. This study also established the catalytic function of CYP125A13 and provides a solid basis for further studies related to the catabolic potential of Streptomyces species.

Gas hydrate is formed by physical binding between water molecule and gas such as methane, ethane, propane, or carbon dioxide, etc., which is captured in the cavities of water molecule under the specific temperature and pressure. $1\;m^3$ hydrate of pure methane can be decomposed to the methane gas of $172\;m^3$ and water of $0.8\;m^3$ at standard condition. If this characteristic of hydrate is reversely utilized, natural gas is fixed into water in the form of hydrate solid. Therefore, the hydrate is considered to be a great way to transport and store of natural gas in large quantity. Especially the transportation cost is known to be 18~25% less than the liquefied transportation. However, when methane gas hydrate is artificially formed, its reaction time may be too long and the gas consumption in water becomes relatively low, because the reaction rate between water and gas is low. Therefore, for the practical purpose in the application, the present investigation focuses on the rapid production of hydrates and the increment of the amount of captured gas by adding zeolite into pure water. The results show that when the zeolite of 0.01 wt% was added to distilled water, the amount of captured gas during the formation of methane hydrate was about 4.5 times higher than that in distilled water, and the methane hydrate formation time decreased at the same subcooling temperature.

In order to deposit a homogeneous and uniform ${\beta}$-SiC films by chemical vapor deposition, we demonstrated the phase stability of ${\beta}$-SiC over graphite and silicon via computational thermodynamic calculation considering pressure, temperature and gas composition as variables. The ${\beta}$-SiC predominant region over other solid phases like carbon and silicon was changed gradually and consistently with temperature and pressure. Practically these maps provide necessary conditions for homogeneous ${\beta}$-SiC deposition of single phase. With the thermodynamic analyses, the CVD apparatus for uniform coating was modeled and simulated with computational fluid dynamics to obtain temperature and flow distribution in the CVD chamber. It gave an inspiration for the uniform temperature distribution and low local flow velocity over the deposition chamber. These calculation and model simulation could provide milestones for improving the thickness uniformity and phase homogeneity.

배가스로부터 이산화탄소의 분리 특성을 파악하기 위해 유기 화합물인 하이드로퀴논을 이용하여 크러스레이트 화합물을 형성하였다. 형성된 크러스레이트 화합물은 고체 NMR 및 라만 분광법을 이용하여 기체의 포집 거동을 확인하였으며, 기체 분리 효율을 계산하기 위하여 원소 분석기를 통한 정량분석도 함께 수행하였다. 분석 결과 배가스에 포함된 이산화탄소는 질소에 비해 동일한 조건에서 크러스레이트 화합물 내로 더 잘 포집되는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 다양한 압력에서 형성된 시료들을 분석한 결과, 이러한 이산화탄소의 선택적 포집 특성이 매우 낮은 압력에서도 뚜렷한 것으로 확인되어 추가적인 에너지 소모를 적게 하면서도 배가스로부터 이산화탄소를 대규모로 분리/회수하는 것이 가능할 것이라 판단된다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 향후 배가스에 대한 분리 응용 기술이나 혼합 가스의 선택적 분리와 같은 분야에서 중요한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Steel-concrete composite beam with profiled steel sheet has gained its popularity in the last two decades. Due to the ageing of these structures, retrofitting in terms of flexural strength is necessary to ensure that the aged structures can carry the increased traffic load throughout their design life. The steel ribs, which presented in the profiled steel deck, limit the use of shear connectors. This leads to a poor degree of composite action between the concrete slab and steel beam compared to the solid slab situation. As a result, the shear connectors that connects the slab and beam will be subjected to higher shear stress which may also require strengthening to increase the load carrying capacity of an existing composite structure. While most of the available studies focus on the strengthening of longitudinal shear and flexural strength separately, the present work investigates the effect of both flexural and longitudinal shear strengthening of steel-concrete composite beam with composite slab in terms of failure modes, ultimate load carrying capacity, ductility, end-slip, strain profile and interface differential strain. The flexural strengthening was conducted using carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) or steel plate on the soffit of the steel I-beam, while longitudinal shear capacity was enhanced using post-installed high strength bolts. Moreover, a combination of both the longitudinal shear and flexural strengthening techniques was also implemented (hybrid strengthening). It is concluded that hybrid strengthening improved the ultimate load carrying capacity and reduce slip and interface differential strain that lead to improved composite action. However, hybrid strengthening resulted in brittle failure mode that decreased ductility of the beam.
