Methylobacterium organophilum을 이용하여 메탄올로부터 유가식 배양법으로 고점도 다당류인 메틸란(methylan)의 생산시, 메틸란 배양액의 점성특성과 산소전달속도와 메틸란 생산 수율과의 관계를 조사하였다. 균체 농도의 증가는 배양액의 점성에 거의 영향을 주지 않았으나 배양시간의 경과에 따른 메틸란의 축적은 배양액의 점성특성을 비뉴톤성으로 변화시키며 동시에 급격한 점도 증가를 보였다. 배양시간의 경과에 따른 같은 농도하에서 메틸란의 점도를 측정한 결과 배양시간이 증가함에 따라, 점도가 현저하게 증가 하였고 pseudoplasticity 정도는 약간 증가하였다. 그 원인을 조사하기 위하여 메틸란 구성 성분의 화학조성을 분석 하였다. 구성성분 중의 유기산(pyruvic acid, uronic acid, acetic acid)의 함량이 메틸란 생성 초기인 34시간에 10%에서 배양말기인 72시간에서는 17%로 증가하였다. 즉, (-)전하를 띠는 산의 함량이 증가함으로 인하여 메틸란 분자네 chain간의 전기적 반발로 인하여 수용액 상태에서 메틸란 분자의 hydrodynamic domain의 증가로 추측되었다. 이와같이 메틸란의 농도 증가에 따른 점도의 증가는 배양도중 산소전달속도($k_La$)의 급격한 감소를 초래하여 균체증식과 메틸란의 생산을 감소시켰다. 그러나 균체의 메틸란 생산능력에는 큰변화가 없어 단위 균체당 메틸란 수율(P/X)은 큰 차이가 없었다. 산소전달속도를 증가시키기 위하여 교반속도를 증가시킨 결과 메틸란의 농도, 비생산 속도 및 생산 수율이 거의 비례적으로 증가됨을 확인하였다.

In order to maximize the cell growth and the biosurfactant production by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2(KCTC 18012P), in the fed-batch fermentation processes were performed varying the feeding medium concentrations and the feeding rate. Feel-batch culture was performed with the optimal agitation speed of 200rpm and the aeration rate of 0.67vvm in a 7L Jar fermentor containing 3L of modified medium and 2.0-2.5%(v/v) fish oil as a carbon source. Addition of fish oil(2.5mL/l00mL modified medium), when fish oil was depleted, the cell and biosurfactant concentration were 6.1g/L and 22.7g/L, respectively.

The fermentation conditions for the maximal production of the useful polysaccharides(water soluble polysaccharide and cell bound polysaccharide) from marine bacterium Zoogloea sp.(KCCM 10036) were investigated with a 5 L jar fermentor. The maximal production of these polysaccharides was obtained under the conditions of initial pH 7.8, 30$^{\circ}C$, 400 rpm of agitation speed, 2 Wm of aeration rate, 10%(w/v) of inoculum size and 2.5%(w/v) of glucose substrate and 10.38 g/L of total polysaccharide was produced. Apparent viscosity of the culture broth was increased with the production of these polysaccharides and the maximum value was reached to 22,500 cp.

This studies were carried out to investigate optimal conditions for Lactic acid bacteria growth, which was grown in a batch fermenter. The optimal temperature was $30^{\circ}C$, optimal pH was 6.5 and agitation speed was 100rpm and didn't supply the air. Used media compositions were yeast extract 5g/L, peptone 10g/L, sugar 20g/L, beef extract 10g/L, tween 80 1ml/L, ammonium citrate 2g/L, sodium acetate 5g/L, magnesium sulfate 0.1g/L, manganese sulfate 0.05g/L, dipotassium phosphate 2g/L. These results would be useful for enhancing lactic acid bacteria concentration.

Stigmastanol, a functional agent of cholesterol-lowering in humans, was synthesized from stigmasterol. To investigate the usability as a raw material, the contents of sterol in vegetable oils and extract of soybean chaff were analyzed. The total sterol contents showed high values of 213.7 and 209.8 mg/100g in corn and soybean oils respectively. The extract of soybean chaff has played a good role as a raw material with high sterol contents. The kinetics of hydrogenation of stigmasterol was studied using a 5% Pd/AC catalyst in the temperature range of 30~$60^{\circ}$C. Increasing temperature showed a prominent decrease in conversion. The optimum temperature was $40^{\circ}$C for high yield of stigmastanol. The effects of $H_2$ pressure, agitation speed, catalyst loading, and stigmasterol concentration on reaction rate profile were also examined. From the power law model analysis using the initial rates of reaction, the reaction order was calculated as 0.705 for stigmasterol concentration and 0.147 for hydrogen pressure.

Several culture conditions affecting cellulose production by a newly isolated Acetobacter sp. A9 were examined by cultivating cells under shaking cultures. The inoculum size in the range of 1-10% (v/v) did not influence cellulose production. Maximum cellulose production was obtained with 200 rpm of agitation speed. The cells grown in the 75 ml of medium in a 250-ml conical flask produced the highest level of cellulose. The strain was able to produce cellulose at 25-3$0^{\circ}C$ with a maximum at 3$0^{\circ}C$. Cellulose production occurred at pH 4.5-7.5 with a maximum at pH6.5.

Monodisperse PMMA micro spheres are prepared by means of a simple soap-free emulsion polymerization in methanol-enriched aqueous medium in a single step process. The size and uniformity of the microspheres are dependent on the polymerization temperature. In a stable system, the uniformity is improved with the polymerization time. The most uniform and stable micro spheres are obtained under mild agitation speed of 100 rpm at 70$^{\circ}C$. The monodisperse PMMA microspheres in the size range of 1.4-2.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ having less than 5% size variation are successfully achieved with varying concentrations of monomer and initiator. As the monomer and initiator concentrations increase, the larger micro spheres with enhanced uniformity are obtained. However, the decreased amount of water induces the polydisperse PMMA particles due to the generation of secondary particles.

Aqueous phase adsorption of phenols by granular activated carbon was studied in a batch adsorption vessel. Adsorption Isotherms of phenol(Ph), p-chlorophenol(PCP) and p-nitrophenol (PNP) from aqueous solution on granular activated carbon have been obtained. The experimental data were analyzed by the surface and pore diffusion models. Both models could be applied to predict the adsorption phenomena. However, the pore diffusion model was slightly better than the surface diffusion model In representing the experimental data for the initial concentration changes. Therefore, the pore diffusion model was used to predict the change of operating variables such as the agitation speed and Particle size of adsorbent which have influence on the film resistance and intraparticle diffusion.

In point of recycling wastes, batch test was conducted to examine the neutralization and Fe removal from laboratory wastewater using wastes. Oyster shell and slag had a buffer capacity to neutralize an acidic wastewater but tire rubber didn't. With increasing reaction time, dosage and agitation speed, Fe was well removed by wastes. As a result on the experiments of Freundlich isotherm, the adsorption intensities(1/n) were 0.32∼0.46 and the adsorption capacities(k) were 4.3∼4.6 for removing Fe from laboratory wastewater by wastes. In view of these results, it was estimated that wastes containing the similar compositions as these could utilize the neutralization and adsorption of heavy metals in laboratory wastewater.

The production of red pigment from glucose by fed-batch culture of Monascus anka was investigated. In batch culture using fermentor, 200 rpm of agitation speed, 1vvm of aeration volume, and 10% (v/v) of inoculum size were optimal, respectively. The red pigment production was increased by removal of wall-attached mycelium. In an intermittent feeding fed-batch culture, dry cell weight increased to 30 g/l, adn the red pigment content reached 350 of absorbance at 495nm. In a continuous feeding fed-batch culture, dry cell weight increased to 22g/l, and the red pigment content reached 190 of absorbance at 495nm.
