Chemical analyses were conducted for Nakdong River water and riverbank filtrate in Daesan-Myeon area, Changwon City in 2005. Chemical components show different trends in wet season (June, July, August and September) and dry season (the other months). The patterns of chemical variation are classified into four types. Chemical components belonging Type I, as Na and $HCO_3$, show decrease in concentration during wet season and increase in concentration during dry season for both Nakdong River water and the riverbank filtrate. Chemical components belonging Type II, as Mg and $SO_4$, show decrease in concentration during wet season and increase in concentration during dry season for Nakdong River water while show the opposite trend for the riverbank filtrate. Chemical components belonging Type III, as Cl and $NO_3$, show increase in concentration from the start of wet season and high concentration during dry season for both Nakdong River water and the riverbank filtrate. Chemical components belonging Type IV, as Fe, show increase in concentration during wet season and decrease in concentration during dry season for both Nakdong River water and the riverbank filtrate.

The effects of glucose concentration on the production of PHB by fed-batch culture of Ralstonia eutropha were investigated. In the range of glucose concentration of $2.5\;{\sim}\;40\;g/l$, it was found that the high glucose concentration was not favorable for the PHB formation after the phosphate limitation. It was further confirmed by the specific PHB synthesis rates and yields. The PHB concentration decreased much with the increase of glucose concentration. But if the glucose concentration was very low, e.g. 2.5 g/l, the cell growth and PHB synthesis also could be limited because of inadequate glucose supply. Itwould be better to maintain the glucose concentration at about 9.0 g/l to obtain high DCW, PHB concentration and productivity.

Simulations of solutions of flexible polymer molecules during flow in simple or complex confined geometries are performed. Concentrations from ultradilute up to near the overlap concentration are considered. As concentration increases, the hydrodynamic migration effects observed in dilute solution unidirectional flows (Couette flow, Poiseuille flow) become less prominent, virtually vanishing as the overlap concentration is approached. In a grooved channel geometry, the groove is almost completely depleted of polymer chains at high Weissenberg number in the dilute limit, but at finite concentration this depletion effect is dramatically reduced. Only upon inclusion of hydrodynamic interactions can these phenomena be properly captured.

A multi-chemical supply system is developed and applied to a wet station, which uses the multi-chemical process in one bath. To control the concentration of two chemicals, control logic of a supply pump is programmed using the programable logic controller (PLC). By using the multi-chemical supply system, wet station with single bath is applied to cleaning process using multi chemicals such as buffed oxide etchant (BOE) and standard clean 1 (SC-1). The concentration of each chemical is measured in the bath to verify the multi-chemical supply system. The control range in the each chemical concentration is measured to 1.33weight% in NH4OH and 0.23weight% in H2O2. The multi-chemical supply system can be movable and usable as an independent module of fixed wet station. By simply midifying the PLC, a multi-chemical supply system can be developed for a wet station.

Effect of initial protein concentration on the protein removal rate was assessed for seawater aquarium using a foam separator. Protein removal rate was increased and removal efficiency was decreased with the increase of initial protein concentration. Enrichment ratio was decreased and foam generation rate was increased with the increase of initial protein concentration. Total suspended solids (TSS) removal rate was increased with the increase of initial protein concentration, and TSS removal efficiency was decreased with the increase of initial protein concentration. Turbidity removal rate and removal efficiency were increased with the increase of initial protein concentration.

In order to utilize unsorted ONP, which contains leaflets (printed coated papers), as a raw material to produce pulp mold, optimum conditions for repulping were investigated with the pilot Helico pulper at Centre Technique du Paper (CTP), France. Two major process factors were focused: repulping concentration and rotor speed. Repulping at a higher concentration showed more rapid defibering kinetics. Increasing the rotational speed of rotor at the optimum repulping concentration accelerated the defibering kinetics while it also led to higher fines generation and faster decrease in drainage property of the produced pulp. Hence, an alternative way was suggested: starting repulping at a conventional rotor speed and then accelerating the rotor speed for the last minute(s) of repulping.

In order to evaluate the ecotoxicological harzardousness of synthetic surfactants on Han river, Jung-ryang and Jin-Wi stream, we used the Ecotoxicological Risk Quotient (ERQ). The chemical harzardousness is evaluated by the balance of the toxicity and concentration in the environment.. Then, ERQ is defined as follows; ERQ = - log ( Concentration in the environment / Effective concentration in the test ) ERQ of chemical is a logtrighmic value of ratio of a chemical concentration and the toxicity in the laboratory. In case of small ERQ, tie chemical harzardousness is high. If ERQ equals O, the same biological effect as in the laboratory test will be observed in the enviromment by the chemicals. ERQ values of the chemicals were calculated using the maximum concentration in water environment which were cited from the annual report by our ministry of environment, and EC$_{50}$ of Daphnia magna (water flea; acute immobilization test) LC$_{50}$ of Oryzias latipes (fish; acue toxicity test) and EC$_{50}$ of chlorella vulgaris (alga; growth inhibition test), which were taken from the annual report of "Chemical in environment" by Japan EA. Liner alkylbenzene sulfonate (determined to MBAS) showed the high average values with more than 2.0 to three species in Han river and Jin-wi stream, and these results mean to be favorable to environmental safety. The areas of Jung-ryang stream were polluted, as the average values of ERQ were less than 2.0 with equal to three species, and attention should be paid. Therefore, they must be inspected again because their concentration in the environment may have changed during that period. The chemical harzardousness can be numerated with ERQ, and it can be a help to find the chemicals that should be kept under observation and to see whether the chemical pollution is improved or worsened. The determination of the chemical concentration in the environment and toxicity are essential for the effective use of ERQ.se of ERQ.

Biocementation due to the microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) process is a potential technique that can be used for soil improvement. However, the effect of biocementation may be affected by many factors, including nutrient concentration, bacterial strains, injection strategy, temperature, pH, and soil type. This study investigates mainly the effect of chemical concentration on the formation of calcium carbonate (e.g., quantity, size, and crystalline structure) and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) using different treatment time and chemical concentration in the biotreatment. Two chemical concentrations (0.5 and 1.0 M) and three different treatment times (2, 4, and 8 cycles) were studied. The effect of chemical concentrations on the treatment was also examined by making the total amount of chemicals injected to be the same, but using different times of treatment and chemical concentrations (8 cycles for 0.50 M and 4 cycles for 1.00 M). The UCS and CCC were measured and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was carried out. The SEM images revealed that the sizes of calcium carbonate crystals increased with an increase in chemical concentrations. The UCS values resulting from the treatments using low concentration were slightly greater than those from the treatments using high concentration, given the CCC to be more or less the same. This trend can be attributed to the size of the precipitated crystals, in which the cementation efficiency increases as the crystal size decreases, for a given CCC. Furthermore, in the high concentration treatment, two mineral types of calcium carbonate were precipitated, namely, calcite and amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC). As the crystal shape and morphology of ACC differ from those of calcite, the bonding provided by ACC can be weaker than that provided by calcite. As a result, the conditions of calcium carbonate were affected by test key factors and eventually, contributed to the UCS values.
