Effect of some nutrients on the growth of 3 yeast strains in the pulp mill waste liquor was determined during an attempt to lower the BOD content of the waste liquor and to produce the fodder yeast. The strains applied were Debaryomyces castelli Capriotti, D.phoffi Capriotti, and Cryptococcus luteolus (Saito)Skinner. The necessity of the addition of 0.2% ${NH_4}2SO_4$ 0.5% yeast extract, 0.2% $NH_2SO_4$, and 0.1% $MgSO_4$.$7H_2$O for the best growth of all three strains in the waste liquor was ascertained as a result. After 3-day treatment of the yeast cells on the waste liquor, the BOD content was lowered by about 60-70%. Harvested yeast cells contained ca. 75% water with 1.5-3% lipid, 40-46% protein, 50% carbohydrate and 3-5% ash on the dry weight basis, indicating the possibility of being utilized as the fodder yeast.

The possibility of using waste brine and cabbage waste from kimchi industry as raw materials for the production of yeast cell mass was investigated. Among four strains of osmotolerant yeast, Candida guilliermondii ATCC 6260 showed the best growth in the waste brine containing about 1.0g/L of reducing sugar and 7% to 12% of NaCl. The growth of C. guilliermondii in waste brine was affected slightly between the temperature range of $25^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C$ and the initial pH of 3 to 6. The NaCl concentration up to 9% was not inhibitory to the growth of C. guilliermondii and the addition of 10mM of ammonium salts or 5mM of potassium phosphate had no effect on the growth. The growth of yeast reduced BOD of the waste brine by 85% within 24hours. When C. guilliermondii was cultured in waste brine added with cabbage juice extracted from waste cabbage, the cell mass was increased significantly.

The optimum condition for production of yeast extract by autolysis and enzymatic method were studied with waste brewers\` yeast. The major components of brewer\`s yeast in proximate compositions were carbohydrate(46.0%) and protein(41.7%). There was a little appreciable difference in the promaximate composition of waste brewers\` and bakery yeast. The major minerals were identified as K, P, Mg and Ca, and their contents were about 1,659.7%, 1,197.4mg%, 210.4mg% and 105.6mg%, respectively. The major vitamins were identified as vitamin C and vitamin B group, and their contents were about 7.9IU/100g and 4.2IU/100g, respectively. The optimum yeast concentration in the reaction suspension was 10% (w/v) waste brewer\`s yeast slurry. The protein content in brewer\`s yeast extract was increased with addition of NaCl as plasmolyzers. However, the plasmolyzer effect of ethanol a little showed as the concentration increasd from 3% ∼7%. The 5\`-nucleotides(5\`-GMP and 5\`-IMP) content in brewer\`s yeast extract was increased with addition of glucanase. The total content of 5\`-nucleotides (5\`-GMP and 5\`-IMP) increased by 160% than those by the autolysis of waste brewer\`s and bakery yeast.

The use of renewable energy sources is becoming increasingly necessary to minimize the problems derived from the global warming impacts caused by the utilization of fossil fuels as well as their limited supply and reservoir. Also, localized heavy rain has occurred in many areas. As a result, suspended wood waste is being inflow into the dam and the problem of waste disposal has occurred. It is a unique renewable and alternative source for the production of energy. The experiment using wood waste (dry weight 25.0g) was conducted for extraction sugars such as xylose, lactose and glucose. For the sugar extraction from wood waste, hydrolysis experiment using wood waste was conducted by two steps. First step was reacted with 72% sulfuric acid (24.0N and 37.5 ml) for 1hr at $30^{\circ}C$ and second step was reacted at $105^{\circ}C$ for one hour after adding 2.45times of hot water. Extracted sugar was used in the experiment of sugar consumption to estimate feasibility of ethanol production using yeast(P. Stipitis and S cerevisiae). As a result, sugar extracted from wood waste was effective consumed by yeast(P. Stipitis and S cerevisiae). The consumption rate by yeast was S. cerevisiae was faster than that of P. stipitis. It can be confirmed that resource as ethanol production using wood waste was available.

As a primary study for SCP production from soybean curd waste water, selection of yeast and optimum cultivation condition of selected yeast on soybean curd waste water were investigated. Eighteen strains of the genus Candida and Saccharamyces were tested to compare their abilities to grow on soybean curd waste water. Candida utilis YUFE 1508 and Candida guilliermondii KFCC 35120 grew most successfully. Optimum pH and optimum temperature of the basal medium for growth of the two strains were $6.0{\sim}6.5$ and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. The optimum culture medium of the two yeasts was soybean curd waste water supplemented with molasses 2.5% (as total sugar), ammonium acetate 0.1-0.3% (as nitrogen), $KH_2PO_4$ 0.1-0.2% (as phosphorus), and $K_2HPO_4$ 0.05% (as phosphorus). But yeast growth was not affected by metal salts. Under the optimum cultivation condition, the maximum cell weights of Candida utilis YUFE 1508 and Candida guillfermondii KFCC 35120 were 1.313g and 1.322g/100ml of culture broth respectively after 48 hr of cultivation. The cell yields of Candida utilis YUFE 1508 and Candida guilliermondii KFCC 35120 were 68.4% and 74.2%, respectively, based on utilized sugar. On the other hand, crude protein of dry yeast produced by Candida utilis YUFE 1508 and Candida guilliermondii KFCC 35120 under optimum condition was 54.0% and 56.8%, respectively.
