Effects of acetic acid, malic acid and citric acid on copper dissolution from new and used copper saucepans at different concentrations (0, 0.02. 0.04, 0.1 0.2, 0.4, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0%), different boiling times (0,10, 20. 30, 40, 50, 60mins.), and different temperatures (5, 20, 40, 60, 80, 10$0^{\circ}C$ ) were investigated. As acetic acid concentration increases, copper content increases. Copper dissolution concentration from copper saucepans at boiling in malic acid increases more than in acetic acid or citric acid. At above 6$0^{\circ}C$, as the temperature increases, the concentration of copper dissolved from copper saucepans also increases. As boiling time increases, the concentration of copper dissolved from copper saucepans also increases. In addition, through repeated use, the concentration of copper increases as well. And copper concentration dissolves in large amounts from used saucepans rather than new saucepans. The dissolution of copper with distilled water by repeated use does not dissolve at all. 1% acetic acid dissolves in large quantities.

To establish the efficient treatment technology of chemical cleaning wastewater from power plant, several AOPs($UV/H_2O_2,\;UV/TiO_2/H_2O_2$, Photo-Fenton oxidation) were investigated. Treatment efficiencies and the electrical energy requirements based on the EE/O parameter(the electrical energy, required per order of pollutant removal in $1m^3$ wastewater) were evaluated. TOC removal efficiencies of $UV/H_2O_2,\;UV/TiO_2/H_2O_2$, Photo-Fenton oxidation at the optimum conditions were 95.5%, 92.3%, 91.5%, respectively. The electrical energy requirements of $UV/H_2O_2,\;UV/TiO_2/H_2O_2$, Photo-Fenton oxidation were $11.26kWh/m^3,\;3.85kWh/m^3,\;0.799kWh/m^3$, respectively. From these results, it could be concluded that all of the three oxidation processes were effective for the degradation of citric acid. Considering the treatment efficiency and economical aspect, photo-Fenton oxidation was the most efficient treatment process among the three processes tested.

The purpose of study was to observe the effect of calcium and citric acid on the dental erosion of human premolar enamel. Enamel specimens were demineralized in 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, or 1.0% citric acid solutions with 0.05%, 0.1%, or 0.2% calcium for 5, 15, 30, and 60 minutes, and then the surface microhardness of the enamel was measured. The hardness decreased as the concentration of citric acid and the demineralization time increased. Hardness after 5 minutes was 76~90% in case of no calcium and the inhibition of dental erosion by calcium addition was 2??15%. Hardness after 15 minutes was 65~84% in case of no calcium and the inhibition of dental erosion by calcium addition was 3~17%. Hardness after 30 minutes was 53~72% in case of no calcium and the inhibition of dental erosion by calcium addition was 6~22%. Hardness after 60 minutes was 43~66% in case of no calcium and the inhibition of dental erosion by calcium addition was 7~19%. The inhibition was the highest in 1.0% citric acid and 0.2% calcium. In 0.1% citric acid the inhibition increased as the demineralization time increased, but in 0.3% to 1.0% citric acid the inhibition was most high at 30 minutes and decreased a little at 60 minutes. These results suggest that calcium has a inhibitory effect on the citric acid induced dental erosion.

For successful soil flushing process selection of appropriate flushing reagents is essential. Futhermore, obtaining operating parameters for site remediation application through various bench-scale tests is also important. In this research a series of organic acids (acetic, citric, oxalic, and succinic acids) were tested for flushing capability. Copper-contaminated natural soil was used as a test medium, and flushing experiments were performed with batch system. All the organic acids used did not provide effective flushing conditions at concentration of 1 mM. At the acid concentration of 50 and 100 mM copper was removed efficiently although 50 and 100 mM did not show any significant differences in removal efficiencies. Citric acid and oxalic acid removed copper more efficiently than the others, and especially, citric acid showed over 87% of removal efficiency of copper at near neutral pH of 5 to 7. Speciation of extracted copper using GEOCHEM simulation showed majority of extracted copper existed as complexed with organic acids and only small portion of organic acids were complexed with copper indicating promising application of soil flushing with organic acid to heavy metal-contaminated site remediation.

Stable slurries of YSZ in aqueous suspension with added polymer dispersants, namely, poly-methacrylic acid ammonium salt (PMMA), poly-acrylic acid (PAA) and poly-acrylic-co-maleic acid (PAMA), were mixed with the monomolecular dispersants citric acid and oxalic acid. The dispersion properties of the suspension were investigated using PSA, viscosity, sedimentation, and FT-IR. The polymer dispersants and monomolecular dispersants were attached to the YSZ surface by the carboxylic group, as shown by the FTIR results. A stabilized aqueous suspension was obtained when the polymer dispersant and citric acid were mixed and compared to the use of citric acid alone as a dispersant agent. When the polymer dispersant and citric acid were mixed and milled through attrition milling, there was a smaller particle size compared to when the polymer dispersant alone was used as a dispersant agent. This study determined that the particle size of the mixed dispersant was affected by the properties of the monomolecular dispersant and that the stability of the suspension was affected by the polymer dispersant. However, when slurries of YSZ were mixed with oxalic acid, the particle bridging behavior was the result of the high degree of viscosity and the small sedimentation height.

The purpose of this study was to compare effects of demineralization of citric acid and tetracycline HCI on periodontally involved root surface. Twelve periodontally involved single rooted teeth were used. After scaling and root planing, root conditioning with citric acid and tetracycline HCI were carried and the teeth were processed scanning electron microscopic observation.The results were as follows: The scaled root surface was covered by much debris and calculus. The effect of demineralization of citric acid and tetracycline HCI was more reduced on scaling group than root planing group, because of hypermineralization of cementum surface and demineralization effect on root surface of tetracycline HCI showed tendency to reduction. The root planed group displayed more smooth root surface than scaling group, the surface was covered by smear layer, thus no exposure of dentinal tubule opening and collagen fiber, especially after root planing, citric acid and tetracycline HCl treated group showed exposure of dentinal tubule and collagen fiber, thus it was thought that new connective tissue attachment could be acquired.

When Asp. niger was shaked at 3$0^{\circ}C$ in 500 mι Erlenmeyer flask with 50 ml of the medium containing 14% of Korean local commercial glucose brand, 0.45% of peptone, and mineral, the citric acid was produced at the level of 37~43 gram per liter in 8 days, and the citric acid production at medium containing X glucose brand was better than that containing Y glucose brand. When the contaminated minerals were removed from the local glucose by Ambelite-IR 120 and peptone by potassium ferrocyanide followed by readjustment of ferric ion content in the medium to 10 mg per liter, the citric acid formation reached 53 gram per liter, a production level of three times higher than that with the original Sakaguchi's medium. The further physiological studies and the mutation of isolated Asp. niger will be needed.

The effect of agitation speed on mass transfer coefficient in the extraction of citric acid from mixed aqueous solutions of citric and acetic acid with n-butylacetate solutions of di-isotridecylamine(DITDA) and 50% mixture of tri-n-octyl and try-n-hexyl phosphine oxide(MOHPO), were studied in batch extractor. Experimental results showed that the degree of extraction was higher with increasing agitation speed, and was best at 200rpm and 30 minutes in batch extractor. The higher degree of extraction was obtained in mixed solution of citric-acetic acid by using DITDA than MOHPO as an carrier. Mass transfer coefficient was proportional to the degree of extraction, and $K_r=1.254{\times}10^{-3}Re^{0.536}$ was found for she extraction of citric acid by DITDA.

The purpose of this study is to find out the optimal mixing ratios of three different amounts of pectin, sugar and citric acid for preparation of garlic jam through response surface methodology(RSM) based on the sweetness, pH, color, sensory and texture test. As the sucrose content increased, the sweetness, cohesiveness, color, flavor, gloss and overall palatability of garlic jam tended to be high and the lightness tended to be low. As the pectin content increased, the adhesiveness of garlic jam tended to increase. As the citric acid content increased, the overall palatability of garlic jam tended to be high and the pH tended to be low. The Pectin levels were included 1.8-2.1g, sucrose levels were included 325-342g and citric acid levels were 5.8-6.1g. The optimal mixing ratios of a pectin, sugar and citric acid for manufacturing the best quality of garlic jam were 2.0g, 334g and 6.0g, respectively.
