The production of polyhydroxybutrate(PHB) by Alcaligenes eutrophus NCIB 11599 was studied in a synthetic medium from whey as a sole carbon source. Especially pH-effect was treated and compared in this study. At the end of fermentation (A) unadjusted to pH, the dry cell weight, PHB concentration, and PHB conversion rate were 10.3g/L, 3.1g/L, and 30%, respectively. At the end of fermentation (B) adjusted to $pH(7.0{\sim}7.5)$, the dry cell weight, PHB concentration, and PHB conversion rate were 12.5g/L, 4.8g/L, and 41%, respectively. PHB conversion rate was about 10% higher on the fermentation (B) than on the fermentation (A).

Frame rate conversion became key technology due to recent advances in LCD panel refresh rates. Although many FRC algorithms have been developed and applied for LCD TV sets, they still suffer from well-known halo artifact. This paper discusses about the artifacts and method to handle them.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of additive catalyst according to the thermal aging of vanadia SCR catalysts. At a fresh condition, the $3V_2O_5-5WO_5-92TiO_2$ SCR showed the highest NOx conversion rate of about 30%, the performance of 5 kinds of SCR to which additive catalysts were added was not improved due to the insignificant effect of acid site control. For catalysts aged for 12h at $700^{\circ}C$, the SCR to which 3wt% Zeolite was added decreased in NOx conversion rate by 2.5% on average compared to the fresh SCR, it showed higher thermal durability than other additive catalyst. For 3Zeolite with high performance of NOx conversion rate during thermal aging, the Zeolite with stronger durability at a high temperature than other 5 kinds of SCR catalysts decreased the sintering of catalysts.

In this paper, a new bilateral frame rate up-conversion algorithm using adaptive overlapped block motion compensation is proposed. In this algorithm, the adaptive overlapped block motion compensation is based on the motion complexity of the reference region. As the motion complexity is determined by the size of the previously coded motion estimation prediction, the overlapped block motion compensation method is selected without any additional computational complexity. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm provides better image quality than conventional methods both objectively and subjectively.

The purpose of this study is to find out how much the investment effect of convertible bond(CB) is from the perspective of investors and to present efficient investment plans to investors. The research method is to investigate the coupon interest rate, maturity interest rate, conversion price, etc. for CBs. As a result of the study, it was analyzed that CB's investment efficiency was low because the conversion price excess days ratio was only about 1/4 of the conversion date. The conversion day yield was -6.3% and the maturity day yield was -5.2% on average. It was analyzed that the number of stocks with negative conversion day yield was 2.4 times higher than the number of positive stocks and 3.7 times higher than the number of positive stocks with a maturity day yield, so the expected return on equity conversion of CB was low.

The kinetics of photoinitiated polymerization of dimethacrylate macromonomers have been studied to determine the diffusion-controlled reaction parameters using attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). A predicted kinetic rate expression with a diffusion control factor was employed to estimate an effective rate constant and to define the reaction-controlled and diffusion-controlled regimes in the photopolymerization. An effective rate constant, k$_{e}$, can be obtained from the predicted kinetic rate expression. At the earlier stages of polymerization, the average values of kinetic rate constants do not vary during the reaction time. As the reaction conversion, $\alpha$, reaches the critical conversion, $\alpha$$_{c}$, in the predicted kinetic expression, the reaction becomes to be controlled by diffusion due to the restricted mobility of dimethacrylate macromonomers. A drop in value of effective rate constant causes a drastic decrease of reaction rate at the later stages of polymerization. By determining the effective rate constants, the reaction-controlled and diffusion-controlled regimes were properly defined even in the photopolymerization reaction system.m.m.

Heat transfer rate is a very important factor for the performance of a steam reformer because a steam reforming reaction is an endothermic reaction. Coaxial cylindrical reactor is the reactor design which can improve the heat transfer rate. Temperature, fuel conversion and heat flux in the coaxial cylindrical steam reformer are studied in this paper using numerical method under various operating conditions. Langmuir-Hinshelwood model and pseudo-homogeneous model are incorporated for the catalytic surface reaction. Dominant chemical reactions are assumed as a Steam Reforming (SR) reaction, a Water-Gas Shift (WGS) reaction, and a Direct Steam Reforming (DSR) reaction. Although coaxial cylindrical steam reformer uses 33% less amount of catalyst than cylindrical steam reformer, its fuel conversion is increased 10 % more and its temperature is also high as about 30 degree. There is no heat transfer limitation near the inlet area at coaxial-type reactor. However, pressure drop of the coaxial cylindrical reactor is 10 times higher than that of cylindrical reactor. Operating parameters of coaxial cylindrical steam reformer are the wall temperature, the inlet temperature, and the Gas Hourly Space Velocity (GHSV). When the wall temperature is high, the temperature and the fuel conversion are increased due to the high heat transfer rate. The fuel conversion rate is increased with the high inlet temperature. However, temperature drop clearly occurs near the inlet area since an endothermic reaction is active due to the high inlet temperature. When GHSV is increased, the fuel conversion is decreased because of the heat transfer limitation and short residence time.

The concentrations of gaseous ammonia and particulate ammonium emitted from a urea plan were measured, and the conversion rate of ammonia to ammonium was estimated. The conversion of ammonia to ammonium has two stages with transport time in the atmosphere. In the initial 15min the conversion rate was 3.2% min$^{-1}$, and thereafter 0.26% min$^{-1}$. The high conversion rate of ammonia to ammonium at the initial period of it's transport might be due to the dissolution of ammonia into water droplets formed by the decrease in temperature of the stack effluent. The concentration of ammonium is further increased by the decomposition of urea in alkaline droplet formed. Half-lives of ammonia gas at initial and latter slag were 16 min and 192 min respectively. No correlation of particulate ammonium concentration to temperature, relative humidity, and concentrations of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and airborne particulate matter were found in this field measurement.

Cracking ammonia inside solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stack is a compact and simple way. To prevent sharp temperature fluctuation and increase cell efficiency, the decomposition reaction should be spread on whole cell area. This leading to a question that, how does anode thickness affect the conversion rate of ammonia and the cell voltage? Since the 0D model of SOFC is useful for system level simulation, how accurate is it to use equilibrium solver for internal ammonia cracking reaction? The 1D model of ammonia fed SOFC was used to simulate the diffusion and reaction of ammonia inside the anode electrode, then the partial pressure of hydrogen and steam at triple phase boundary was used for cell voltage calculation. The result shows that, the ammonia conversion rate increases and reaches saturated value as anode thickness increase, and the saturated thickness is bigger for lower operating temperature. The similar cell voltage between 1D and 0D models can be reached with NH₃ conversion rate above 90%. The 0D model and 1D model of SOFC showed similar conversion rate at temperature over 750℃.

The continuous transesterification of mixed fat was done on the plug flow reactor packed with the static mixers. The transesterification using 0.5 wt% KOH, 0.8 wt% TMAH and mixed catalyst[40 v/v% KOH(0.5 wt%)+60 v/v% TMAH(0.8 wt%)] was conducted with the changes of molar ratios, weight percentage of beef, flow rates and number of static mixer's elements at $65^{\circ}C$. The overall conversion of mixed fat at 1:8 molar ratio, 50 wt% of beef and 24 of static mixer's elements increased until 0.7mL/min of flow rate. The overall conversion of mixed fat showed 96% at those conditions. So, the optimum operating conditions on tublar reactor were 1:8 molar ratio, 50 wt% of beef, 0.7 mL/min of flow rate and 24 of static mixer' s elements.
