마이크로 크기 상업용 칠 분말의 반응성 향상을 위한 변수로 포기 반응 조건인 pH 조절과 산 세척을 통한 철 분말의 표면처리를 선정하고 질산성 질소를 처리대상오염 물질로 선택하여 철 분말에 의한 질산성 질소 처리 실험을 수행하였다. 산을 이용한 초기 pH조절에 의한 반응성 향상 실험에서 가장 좋은 pH 조절제는 염산이었으며 critical pH는 2 였고 산 세척에 의한 반응성 향상 실험에서는 산 세척한 철 분말의 반응성이 그렇지 않은 철 분말보다 현저하게 좋았으며 황산의 세척능이 염산보다 더 뛰어남을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 초기 반응조건의 조절과 철 분말의 산 세 척을 통한 전처리로 기존의 마이크로 크기 상업용 철 분말이 지닌 반응성의 향상을 꾀하였으며 수중의 질산성 질소 처리실험을 통하여 최적의 반응조건을 확립하였다.

The converter slag can be used to remove phosphate ion into the form of solid state from the wastewater. This research aims to evaluate the change of pH, alkalinity, leaching of positive ion in the wastewater and the removal of phosphate from the initial condition of wastewater. The change of pH was abruptly increased upto pH 11 for the initial condition of pH from 7.0 to 8.5 fer 0.5 unit of pH. The alkalinity was steadily increased from 10 hours of reaction time not same as pH increase. The removal of phosphate was very effective till 10 hours of reaction then it was slow after that time. The positive ion, magnesium ion was leached from the concentration of 2.0 mg/L to 4.3mg/L at the reaction time of 27 hours and 36 hours. Therefore, converter slag can be used to remove the phosphate in the form of Struvite from the wastewater.

Understanding the behavior of pollutants in the marine environment is essential for coping with the marine pollution problems such as eutrophication. In this study, the effects of environmental parameters on phosphorus release from marine sediment to sea water were investigated. The environmental parameters such as pH in the range of 7 to 9, temperature from 10 to 20C and dissolved oxygen levels (DO) renging 0.7 to 7.0mg/L were examined. Phosphorus release data were taken from batch tests excluding biotic effects, and analyzed using a first-order kinetic model. The effects of environmental parameters were quantified using a statistical methodology. High pH, high temperature, and low DO increased phosphorus release from the sediment to sea water. pH from 7 to 9, temperature from 10 to $20^{\circ}C$, or DO from 7.0 to 0.7 mg/L magnified the equilibrium phosphorus concentration up to 2~3 times.

Ordered single-walled hollow aluminogermanate (ALGE) nano-balls(NBs) and nano-tubes(NTs) have been self-assembled from the ALGE precursors having an Al/Ge ratio of 1.33 using simple pH-control. The hollow ALGE NBs with average monodisperse diameters of 5 nm and chemistry of Al/Ge=1.5~1.6 were formed through structural assembly in the ALGE solution (Al/Ge=1.33) highly basified to pH=13(Na/Al=28~30) and followed by immediate acidification to pH=9. When the basified solution(pH=13) were acidified to pH=4, ALGE S-NTs (Short-fiber nano-tubes) with diameters of 3.3 nm, 15~20 nm in length, and chemistry of Al/Ge=2.6~2.8 were successfully synthesized. Whereas the solution was basified to pH=9, and subsequently acidified to pH=4, L-NTs(Long-fiber nano-tubes) with >100 nm in length were synthesized for the first time. The self-assembly of the hollow NBs, S-NTs, and L-NTs form the ALGE precursors can be explained by the degree of $H^+$-dissociation of the -Ge-OH inner surfaces, which was controlled by amount of $Na^+$ and pH conditions of ALGE precursor solutions. This results indicate that target forms of ALGE nanomaterials can be synthesized by simple pH controls.

본 연구에서는 산생성효율의 최적 운전인자 도출을 위하여 중온 및 고온혐기성산발효공정에서의 유기물부하에 따른 산발효 효율을 비교 검토하였으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 유기물 부하별로 고온과 중온 조건에서 실험을 진행했을 때 VFA생성과 pH변화를 비교했을 때, 고온 조건이 중온조건보다 더 높은 부하율에서 운전이 가능한 것으로 나타났으며, 생성되는 VFA의 농도도 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며, pH의 변화는 고온 조건에서 4.8$\sim$6.2, 중온 조건에서 5.8$\sim$6.7로 고온에서 중온보다 pH가 낮게 나타났다. 고온과 중온에서 유기물 부하별로 산발효시 생성된 유기산의 구성성분을 비교했을 때, 고온에서 생성된 유기산이 중온보다 acetic acid의 비율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 음식물찌꺼기 고온 산발효액의 성상에서 $SCOD_{Cr}$/TKN, $SCOD_{Cr}$/T-P이 각각 18.9, 73.4로 나타나 하수처리장에서 저부하 유기물 유입시에 탄소원으로 충분히 활용 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

For the qualitative analysis of peptides in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS), O-methylisourea, which is chemically bound to a specific site of an amino acid (e.g. lysine) of peptides and improves the intensities of the modified peptides, is frequently used prior to the MALDI-MS analysis of peptides, where the process is called guanidination. The reaction efficiency of guanidination varies depending on the reaction conditions. We investigated the efficiencies of guanidination of tryptically digested myoglobin using three different reagents (O-methylisourea, S-methylisothiourea, and 2-methyl-2-imidazoline) at $65^{\circ}C$ for 1 h with various pH conditions (pH 4.0, 7.0, and 10.5), where O-methylisourea and pH 10.5 were found to be most effective. The guanidination with O-methylisourea at pH 10.5 were then applied with different reaction conditions such as heating, microwave and ultrasound at various times, where heating for 60 min was found to be most effective. Conclusively, guanidination with O-methylisourea at $65^{\circ}C$ for 1 h at pH 10.5 was found to be the optimized condition.

The activities of enzymes that act on oxygen derivatives in Rhodobacter sphaeroides D-230 were investigated under various culture conditions. Intracellular SOD activity from the cells grown in aerobic or anaerobic culture conditions was highest at pH 7.0 and pH 8.0, respectively. On the other hand, extracellular SOD activity was highest at pH 6.0. Catalase activity was highest at neutral pH in both cases. Growth of R. sphaeroides D-230 in aerobic or anaerobic culture conditions was inhibited by methyl viologen. As R. sphaeroides D-230 was cul-tured aerobically, SOD activity was increased about 2-fold by addition of iron ion. But $Mn^+2$ had little effect on the SOD activity of R. sphaeroides D-230 grown in aerobically. NaCN, the inhibitor of Cu$.$Zn-SOD, did not inhibit SOD activity. But, $NaN_3$, the inhibitor of Mn-SOD, inhibited SOD activity in anaerobic cultures con-dition. Therefore, R. sphaeroides D-230 produce Mn-SOD in anaerobic condition, although Fe-Sod is produced in aerobic condition. The activity of catalase was induced by methyl viologen, however, extremely inhibited by NaCN and $NaN_3$.

This study was conducted using response surface methodology (RSM) to elucidate fermentation conditions that will optimize ACE inhibitory activity using Lactiplantibacillus plantarum K79. Four independent variables [skim milk (with 1% added glucose) concentration (6%-14%), incubation temperature (32℃-42℃), incubation time (8-24 h), and amount of added starter (0.02%-0.2%)] were evaluated using five-level central composite design and response surface methodology to determine the optimum fermentation condition. The dependent variables were angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity (the value obtained from 102 diluted supernatant), and pH. The respective coefficients of determinations (R²) were 0.791 and 0.905 for ACE inhibitory activity and pH. The maximum ACE inhibitory activity was 90% under the following conditions: 10% skim milk (with 1% added glucose) concentration, 37℃ incubation temperature, 17.8 h incubation time, and 0.2% added starter. Based on the RSM, using predicted best ACE conditions for fermentation of 13.49% skim milk (with 1% added glucose) with 0.0578% starter at 33.4℃ for 21.5 h, the predicted ACE inhibitory activity and pH values were 86.69% and 4.6, respectively. Actual ACE inhibitory activity and pH values were 85.5% and 4.58, respectively

A white rot fungus as a microbial source producing bioflocculant was isolated from rotted leaves and identified as Pestalotiopsis sp. M01. The flocculating activity and productivity of Pestan produced by Pestalotiopsis sp. KCTC 8637P was determined by using Czapek-Dox medium as the inorganic salt source. The flocculating activity was highest at 3% sucrose and 0.3% $KN0_3$, pH 7, and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. Whilst, the strain growth was highest at 3% sucrose, 0.3% TEX><$KN0_3$, pH 5, and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to look for the optimal conditions of methane production. The conditions tested for methane production enhancement were temperature, pH, carbon source, nitrogen source, and inhibitor which can affects methane production. As a result, optimal conditions for methane production were 30$^{\circ}C$, neutral pH, methanol as a carbon source, NH$_4$Cl as a nitrogen source. 2-Bromoethanesulfonic acid was used as an inhibitor which can affects methane production. Existence in broth less than 10mM, inhibited methane production. Organic acid measurements revealed that formic acid exists in broth as majority.
