In MBR, extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) is known as an important factor of fouling; soluble EPS (sEPS) affects internal contamination of membrane, and bound EPS (bEPS) affects the formation of the cake layer. The production of EPS changes according to the composition of influent, which affects fouling characteristics. Therefore, in this study, the effects of the F/M ratio on the sEPS concentration, bEPS content, and fouling were evaluated. The effects of F/M ratio on the amount and composition of EPS were confirmed by setting conditions that were very low or higher than the general F/M ratio of MBR, and the fouling occurrence characteristics were evaluated by filtration resistance distribution. As a result, it was found that the sEPS increased significantly with the increase of the F/M ratio. When the substrate was depleted, bEPS content decreased because bEPS was hydrolyzed into BAP and seemed to be used as a substrate. In contrast, when the substrate is sufficient, UAP (utilization-associated products) was rapidly generated in proportion with the consumption of the substrate. UAP has a relatively higher Protein/Carbohydrate ratio (P/C ratio) than BAP, and this means, it has a higher adhesive force to the membrane surface. As a result, UAP seems like causing fouling rather than BAP (biomass-associated products). Therefore, Rf (Resistance of internal contamination) increased rapidly with the increase of UAP, and Rc (Resistance of cake layer) increased with the accumulation of bEPS in proportion, and as a result, the fouling interval was shortened. According to this study, a high F/M ratio leads to an increment in UAP generation and accumulation of bEPS, and by these UAP and bEPS, membrane fouling is promoted.
이 실험의 목적은 유채 F1 종자 생산시 종자친과 화분친의 재식비 및 수확시기별 종자의 지방산 함량에 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 실험을 수행하였다. 안정적인 종자 생산을 위해, 두 가지의 실험을 노지에서 수행하였다. 실험 1은 F1 종자 생산을 위한 종자친과 화분친의 재식 비별(4:2, 10:2, 10:1)로 정식하였고 유채 개화 후 40, 45, 50, 55, 60에 지방산 함량을 조사하였다. 실험 2는 F2 종자의 개화 후 등숙시기별로 종자를 수확하여 지방산을 분석하였다. 실험의 결과, 종자친과 화분친 재식비에 따른 등숙시기별 유채 종자의 지방산 조성 및 함량은 차이를 보여 주었으나 지방산의 오염 정도 척도인 erucic acid는 재식비에 따라 영향을 미치지 않았다. 종자친과 화분친의 비에서 얻어진 F1 과 F2 종자 비에서 palmitic acid, stearic acid과 linoleic acid은 등숙 시기에 따라 감소하였다. 그러나 oleic acid는 두 실험 모두에서 개화 후 55일까지 상대적으로 증가하였지만, 개화후 60일째 영향을 미치지 않았다. 지방산 생합성 관련 유전자인 SAD, FAD1 및 FAD2의 발현양상도 등숙 시기별 지방산 조성 및 함량과 일치하였다. 이런 결과는 종자친과 화분친의 비에 따른 재식비과 F2 종자의 비에 따른 지방산 조성이 큰 문제가 되지 않음을 보여주므로 F1 종자의 안정적인 생산을 위해 종자친의 파종비는 늘리고 화분친비를 줄이면 유채 종자 생산량이 높아질 것으로 사료가 된다.
The neutron capture spectrum for the light nuclide was very useful to study the nuclear structure. In the present study, the capture gamma-ray from the 27-keV resonance of 19F(n,g)20F reaction were measured with an anti-Compton NaI(Tl) spectrometer and the 3-MV Pelletron accelerator of the Research Laboratory for Nuclear Reactors at the Tokyo institute of technology. A neutron Time-of-Flight method was adopted with a 1.5 ns pulsed neutron source by the 7Li(p,n)7Be reaction. In the present experiment, a Teflon((CF2)n) sample was used The sample was disk with a diameter of 90mm. The thickness of sample was determined so that reasonable counting rates could be obtained and the correction was not so large for the self-shielding and multiple scattering of neutrons in the sample, and was 5mm. The primary gamma-ray transitions were compared with previous measurement of Kenny.
