This study was carried out to obtain the basic quality characteristics, like moisture contents, hunter color value, total polyphenol, starch, amylose, and ash contents and pasting characteristics of sweet potato cultivars according to storage periods. Moisture contents of all the varieties decreased with long storage period, and were lower in dry type than tender and moist type sweet potato. Lightness(L value) of sweet potato flesh was decreased in Shinyulmi, Daeyumi, Shinhwangmi but other seven cultivars showed increasing trend. Redness(a value) was increased in Sinyulmi, Sinhwangmi, Sinjami and yellowness (b value) increased in Yeonjami only. The total polyphenol contents increased in Dahomi, Sinjami up to 4 months of storage and all other varieties showed decrease during storage period. The starch contents also decreased with storage period. The amylose contents showed different by the cultivars. The ash contents in all varieties ranged from 1.1 to 1.7%, and there was no difference among varieties and storage periods. There was no change in pasting temperature during storage periods. Peak viscosity, through viscosity, breakdown and final viscosity were different according to storage periods and cultivars. But setback tended to increase in all cultivars.

본 연구에서는 장미 재배온실을 대상으로 온실 내부의 태양잉여열과 외부의 공기열을 선택적 열원으로 이용하여 온실난방용 온수를 생산할 수 있는 공기 대물 히트 펌프의 설계와 성능시험을 수행하였다. 태양잉여열 이용 축열운전과 외기열 이용 축열운전은 작물의 생육적온을 고려한 온실내부의 설정온도에 따라 자동전환 되도록 설계하였다. 제어반에 12개의 기준온도를 설정함으로써 축열운전 전환, 난방, 환기를 자동제어하며, 태양잉여열-외 기열 선택적 축열운전에서 축열조의 온도는 축열능력과 난방부하에 대응하여 35~52oC로 3단계 변온제어 하였다. 태양잉여열-외기열 선택적 축열에서 태양잉여열 이용 축 열은 전체 시간의 23.1%, 외기열 이용 축열은 30.7%, 히트펌프 휴지시간은 46.2%를 차지하였으며, 난방성능계수는 태양잉여열 이용 축열 시 3.83, 외기열 이용 축열 시 2.77, 전체 3.24로 평가되었다. 비교시험을 위해 축열 조 온도를 50~52oC로 항온제어 하는 조건에서 외기열 단독 이용 축열 시험을 수행하였으며 이때의 난방성능계 수는 2.33으로 분석되었다. 결과적으로 공기 대물 히트 펌프의 열원으로 온실내부 태양잉여열과 외부 공기열을 병용하고, 축열조 온도를 변온제어한 결과 일반적인 외기열 이용 축열운전과 축열조 항온제어에 비해 난방성능 계수가 39% 향상됨을 확인하였다.

한국원자력환경공단에서는 국내 경수로 원전에서 발생된 사용후핵연료를 건식으로 저장할 수 있는 콘크리트 용기를 개발하 였다. 본 저장용기는 사용후핵연료가 건식환경에서 장기간 저장되는 동안 용기 및 사용후핵연료의 건전성이 유지되며, 방사 선량률이 저장시설의 설계기준을 초과하지 않도록 설계되어야 한다. 특히, 저장시설은 정상 및 사고조건에서 적절한 방사선 방호를 위한 차폐설계가 이루어져야 한다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 미국 10CFR72 및 10CFR20의 기술기준과 NRC의 표준 심사지침 NUREG-1536에서 제시한 평가방법에 따라 건식저장조건하에서 단일 콘크리트용기 및 2×10 용기배열조건의 선 량율을 평가하였다. 평가결과, 일반인에 대한 연간선량 한도인 0.25 mSv를 만족하는 통제구역 경계까지의 거리는 약 230 m 로 도출되었다. 콘크리트 저장용기의 설계사고는 2×10 배열의 저장시설에서 한 개의 저장용기가 이송 중 전도사고가 발생 하여 용기의 바닥면이 통제구역 경계로 향하는 상황으로 가정하였다. 전도된 저장용기의 바닥면으로 부터 100 m 및 230 m 지점에서 각각 12.81 mSv 및 1.28 mSv로 평가되었다. 본 연구를 통해 건식저장조건에서 콘크리트 저장용기 및 저장시설은 적절하게 평가된 통제구역경계까지의 거리가 확보된다면 방사선적 안전성이 유지됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 평가결과만으 로 건식환경의 저장용기(시설) 설계에 직접 적용하기는 어렵겠으나, 향후‘국가 고준위폐기물 관리 전략’에 근거한 원전내 저장시설 또는 중간저장 시설의 설계 및 운영에 유용한 자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.

Physicochemical characteristics of vinegar pickled cabbages during storage were examined. 3x3 cm cube-shaped stems and leaves of cabbages examined in different pickling condition (salt 2, 4, 6, 8% and sugar 5, 10, 15, 20% brix) for 12 hours, and salt and sugar penetration rate were measured at every 2 hours. The vinegar pickled cabbages were stored for 4 weeks at 3 different temperature conditions (5, 15, and 25℃), and sensory test and TPA test were performed at intervals of every week. The rates of salt and sugar penetration were faster on the leaves than on the stem of cabbage. Also, increase in salt and sugar concentration of solutions led to increase in salt and sugar permeation rate. As a result of sensory test, both leaves and stems of cabbages stored at 5℃ did not show any significant difference with storage time. However, preference degree of cabbages stored at 15 and 25℃ decreased significantly as increasing the storage time. Hardness and cohesiveness of pickled cabbage were increased significantly as the storage time increased, but storage temperature did not give any effect on them.

Fish skin peptide-loaded liposomes were prepared in 100 mL and 1 L solution as lab scales, and 10 L solution as a prototype scale. The particle size and zeta potential were measured to determine the optimal conditions for the production of fish skin peptide-loaded liposome. The liposome was manufactured by the following conditions: (1) primary homogenization at 4,000 rpm, 8,000 rpm, and 12,000 rpm for 3 minutes; (2) secondary homogenization at 40 watt (W), 60 W, and 80 W for 3 minutes. From this experimental design, the optimal conditions of homogenization were selected as 4,000 rpm and 60 W. For the next step, fish peptides were prepared as the concentrations of 3, 6, and 12% at the optimum manufacturing conditions of liposome and stored at 4ºC. Particle size, polydispersion index (pdI), and zeta potential of peptide-loaded liposome were measured for its stability. Particle size increased significantly as manufacture scale and peptide concentration increased, and decreased over storage time. The zeta potential results increased as storage time increased at 10 L scale. In addition, 12% peptide showed the formation of a sediment layer after 3 weeks, and 6% peptide was considered to be the most suitable for industrial application.

Weight loss that influences quality and farmer incomes is affected by the storage environment of agricultural products. The interior of storage should be maintained at high humidity to prevent the weight loss of products which contain a lot of moisture. The research had constantly proceeded with change in the heat exchanger surface areas, humidity systems, and weight loss forecast to maintain high humidity within storage. Relative humidity that exerts an effect weight loss of crop is influenced by storage temperature, leak state, and volume of product. When weight loss is predicted, different conditions of these factors are derived. In case of CA storage, ways of forecasting the weight loss become easier compared to cold storage due to sealed storage with external environment during storage period. In this study, apples were stored in purge-type CA storage and weight loss has been predicted by using operating characteristics and environmental conditions. As a result, humidity variation in the storage fluctuates with the operation of the unit-cooler. Furthermore, unit-cooler operation factor is influenced by outside temperature and respiration heat. Prediction value of weight loss according to temperature and humidity has been most accurately predicted. Prediction value through defrosting water measured shows unit-cooler work quality. K-value needs verification to calculate the VPD method.
