As sprout vegetables of interest growing, its maintaining the quality of the technology was needed to solve the problem of increasing growth and maintain quality after harvest. This experiment proved that the quality of radish sprout vegetable was affected by CO2 treatment during cultivation. Thus, the effect of CO2 treatment during cultivation on postharvest quality of radish sprout vegetable was investigated in terms of the quality changes in weight loss, gas partial pressure, SPAD, hue angle external appearance during storage at polypropylene film (thickness 30 μm) at 10oC. CO2 treatment used the way to gas with 700 ppm or carbonated water with 700 ppm and 1,400 ppm. The study revealed that growths on CO2 treated plant were more than those of non-treatment on stem length. After harvesting, the CO2 treated plant and control growing little different characteristics on fresh weight, plant length and so on. However, there were no differences between the CO2 treated plant and control on the Fv/Fm and SOD (superoxide dismutase). In gas partial pressure, the O2 consumption and CO2 accumulation of the CO2 treated plant tended to be more than that of non-treated plant. This study also checked that after packaging, the effects of CO2 treatment during cultivation on the quality of radish sprout vegetable was not significant. However, there were tended to CO2 treatments were lower value compared to control on SPAD, hue angle and general appearance. CO2 treatments of radish sprouting vegetable before harvest were improve growth of stem length, but ones were not improving the maintain of quality on radish sprout vegetable during shelf-life period. The results indicated that CO2 treatment only affected stem elongation until radish sprout vegetable its growth.

This study was conducted to determine $CO_2$ treatment condition to extend the shelf-life of 'Seolhyang' strawberry. Fresh strawberries with red color on 80% of the fruit surface were harvested. The samples at two different stages (on the $1^{st}$ and $3^{rd}$ day after harvest) were placed in a gas-tight chamber with 0, 5, 15, or 30% $CO_2$ concentration for 3 hours at $4^{\circ}C$. Then, the strawberry samples were immediately packaged in a PET tray and stored at $4^{\circ}C$. The carbon dioxide treatment was effective in maintaining the quality of 'Seolhyang' strawberries treated on the $1^{st}$ day after harvest. These samples had higher firmness, lower redness, softening index, and decay rate compared to samples treated on the $3^{rd}$ day after harvest. Treatment with both 15 and 30% of $CO_2$ concentration on the $1^{st}$ day after harvest induced an increase of firmness of 'Seolhyang' strawberry after the treatment. Samples treated with 15 and 30% $CO_2$ the $1^{st}$ day after harvest maintained quality for 10 days. However, samples treated with $CO_2$ on the $3^{rd}$ day after harvest lost marketability at 10 days of storage. At the atmosphere containing 30% $CO_2$ on the $1^{st}$ day after harvest was most effective in reducing decay rate and fruit softening, and maintaining bright red color of strawberries among different $CO_2$ concentrations. Therefore, a 30% $CO_2$ treatment within one day after harvest can be a practical postharvest technology to extend shelf-life of 'Seolhyang' strawberry. '설향' 딸기 수확 후 $CO_2$ 처리에 의한 선도유지 효과 및 적정 처리조건을 구명하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 착색도 70% 수준의 '설향' 딸기를 수확 후 1, 3일 후에 $CO_2$ 농도 0, 5, 15 및 30%에서 3시간 처리한 다음 $4^{\circ}C$에서 각각 12일, 10일 저장(수확 후 13일) 하였다. 수확 후 1일에 $CO_2$ 처리한 '설향' 딸기는 15% 및 30% $CO_2$ 처리에서 과실의 경도를 증가시켜, 저장 10일까지 저장 전 보다 경도가 높게 유지되었고, $CO_2$ 농도가 높아질수록 물러짐 발생이 적게 나타났으며, 부패과율도 낮게 나타났다. 특히 30% $CO_2$ 처리한 딸기의 색은 적색도(Hunter a값)가 가장 낮았고, 외관에 대한 관능점수는 가장 높게 나타났다. 그러나 수확 후 3일에 $CO_2$ 처리한 딸기는 $CO_2$ 농도에 관계없이 딸기 저장 중 품질에 영향을 미치지 않았고, 물러짐 발생이 수확 후 1일 $CO_2$ 처리보다 높았으며, 이취 및 부패과율이 높아 품질이 나쁜 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 '설향' 딸기를 수확 후 1일 이내에 15% 및 30% $CO_2$ 처리하면 선도유지에 효과적인 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 30% $CO_2$ 농도 3시간 처리는 수확 후 10일 까지 '설향' 딸기의 품질을 유지할 수 있었다.

김정수 ( Jung Soo Kim ),정대성 ( Dae Sung Chung ),이윤석 ( Youn Suk Lee ) 한국식품저장유통학회(구 한국농산물저장유통학회) 2012 한국식품저장유통학회지 Vol.19 No.6

본 연구는 국내 무화과의 저장 중 품질 개선효과를 관찰하기 위하여 고농도 CO(2) 처리와 미세천공포장 필름을 적용하였다. 포장된 내부의 고농도 CO(2) 처리를 위하여 70%의 초기 CO(2)로 유지하였으며, 가스투과도가 다른 포장재들(일반 OPP필름과 미세천공 MP필름)로 밀봉하여 5와 25℃의 저장조건에서 수확 후 무화과의 선도유지를 평가하였다. 70% 이상의 고농도 CO(2)로 전처리한 무화과의 중량 감소율과 경도, 부패과 발생율이 무처리구와 비교하여 선도유지에 긍정적인 효과가 있음을 관찰한 결과를 기반으로 70%고농도 CO(2)처리와 포장재로 밀봉한 무화과의 저장실험에서 일반 OPP필름, 일반 OPP필름+70% CO(2) 미세천공 MP필름+70% CO(2) 처리구가 중량감소율, 경도, 부패율 감소에 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 그중 미세천공 필름에 70%의 고농도 CO(2)로 충진하여 밀봉 포장한 무화과가 저장기간 동안 호흡률 및 포장재의 가스투과도로 인한 포장내부에 변화된 환경을 최적조건으로 유지시켜 주는 것으로 관찰되었다. 따라서 고농도 CO(2)처리된 미체천공 필름을 적용한 포장설계는 수확 후 무화과의 선도유지 개선에 큰 효과를 가져다줄 뿐만 아니라 유통과정 중 쉽게 발생할 수 있는 물리적 충격에 인한 외형적 손상으로부터 무화과의 상품성을 유지할 수 있는 효과 또한 기대할 수 있다. This experiment was conducted to establish the optimum conditions for high CO2 gas treatment in combination with a proper gas-permeable packaging film to maintain the quality of fig fruit (Ficus carica L). Among the fig fruits with different high CO2 treatments, the quality change was most effectively controlled during storage in the 70%-CO2-treated fig fruit. Harvested fig fruit was packaged using microperforated oriented polypropylene (MP) film to maintain the optimum gas concentrations in the headspace of packaging for the modified-atmosphere system. MP film had an oxygen transmission rate of about 10,295 cm(3)/m(2)/day/atm at 25℃. The weight loss, firmness, soluble-solid content (SSC), acidity (pH), skin color (Hunter L, a, b), and decay ratio of the fig fruits were monitored during storage at 5 and 25℃. The results of this study showed that the OPP film, OPP film + 70% CO(2), and MP film+70% CO(2) were highly effective in reducing the loss rate, firmness and decay occurrence rate of fig fruits that were packaged with them during storage. In the case of using treatments with packages of OPP film and OPP film+70% CO(2), however, adverse effects like package bursting or physiological injury of the fig may occur due to the gas pressure or long exposure to CO(2). Therefore, the results indicated that MP film containing 70% CO(2) can be used as an effective treatment to extend the freshness of fig fruits for storage at a proper low temperature.

Regenerable potassium-based alumina sorbents prepared by CO2 thermal treatment for post-combustion carbon dioxide capture

Jae Chang Kim,Seong Bin Jo,이수출,Ho Jin Chae,Min Sun Cho,Joong Beom Lee,Jeom-In Baek 한국화학공학회 2016 Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.33 No.11

Potassium carbonate supported on alumina is used as a solid sorbent for CO2 capture at low temperatures. However, its CO2 capture capacity decreases immediately after the first cycle. This regeneration problem is due to the formation of the by-product [KAl(CO3)(OH)2] during CO2 sorption. To overcome this problem, a new regenerable potassium-based sorbent was fabricated by CO2 thermal treatment of sorbents prepared by the impregnation of δ-alumina with K2CO3 in the presence of 10 vol% CO2 and 10 vol% H2O. The CO2 capture capacities of the new regenerable sorbents were maintained over multiple CO2 sorption tests. These results can be explained by the fact that the sorbent prepared by CO2 thermal treatment did not form any by-product during CO2 sorption. Based on these results, we suggest that the regeneration properties of potassium-based sorbents using δ-alumina could be significantly improved by the use of the CO2 thermal treatment developed in this study.

Purpose: In this study, we compared low-power $CO_2$ laser treatment to ultrasonic scaling, which is generally approved as a power-driven mechanical instrumentation, and evaluated both of these treatments regarding their clinical effectiveness and change in the volume of in GCF. Material and methods: 20 patients who had gingivitis were selected. all of patients has no systemic problems. Randomly selected, one quadrant received ultrasonic scaling only, another quadrant received ultrasonic scaling and $CO_2$ laser irradiation, the other quadrant received $CO_2$ laser irradiation only. Clinical parameters measured at baseline, 1 weeks, 2weeks, 4weeks and 8weeks. Result: Pocket probing depth and clinical attachment level were not changed during study period. Gingival index of all group were improved after treatment. At 1 weeks after treatment, Gingival index of ultrasonic scaling group was only significantly different compared to control group. At 2 weeks after treatment, gingival index of all experimental group were significantly different compared to control group. At 4 and 8 weeks after treatment, gingival index of all group were increased, but experimental group were lower than control group. Sulcus bleeding index was similar to the results of gingival index. At 1 weeks after treatment, all experimental group were significantly different compared to control group and it maintained during study. At 2 weeks after treatment, sulcus bleeding index of all group were lowest during study. Gingival crevicular fluid were measured with $Periotron^{(R)}$ 8000($Oraflow^{(R)}$, Inc. USA). At baseline, all group were showed moderately severe condition. At 1 week after treatment, laser treatment only group was reduced quantity of gingival crevicular fluid mostly, and all group were reduced quantity of gingival crevicular fluid. At 2 weeks after treatment, all group were health state. At 4 and 8 weeks after treatment, all group were showed recurrent of inflammation, and control group was the most significantly increased. Conclusion: This study showed that the effects of $CO_2$ laser treatment were similar to conventional ultrasonic scaling and this result remained longer than plaque control only. These results suggest possibility of $CO_2$ laser treatment for altered periodontal therapy.

Year-Round Production System of the Korean Native Bumblebee Bombus ignitus for Crop Pollination

Hyung Joo Yoon 한국응용곤충학회 2010 한국응용곤충학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2010 No.05

The bumblebee is an important pollinator of various greenhouse crops, especially for tomatoes and there has been increasing interest in commercial use of the insects for pollination. Recent advances in commercial rearing of the European bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) made it possible to package bumblebee for crop pollination. Bumblebees are distributed world widely including alpine, cool temperate and even arctic environments of the northern continents. We chose B. ignitus out of seven Korean native bumblebees, because the species showed the best results both in artificial multiplication and in pollinating ability. Now, we are studying an artificial year-round mass rearing of B. ignitus selected as the most reliable native species in crop pollination. Therefore, we investigated the optimum temperature and humidity, effect of photoperiod and CO2-treatment, facilitating effects of helper, and artificial hibernation of B. ignitus to establish year-round mass rearing of B. ignius. The experimental regimes of temperature and humidity were defined as 23℃, 27℃ and 30℃ under a constant humidity of 65% R.H., and 50%, 65% and 80% R.H. under a constant temperature of 27℃, respectively. Among the temperature regimes, 27℃-rearing showed the best results, i.e., the rates of colony initiation, colony foundation and progeny-queen production at 27℃ were 83%, 63% and 46%, respectively, which corresponded to 2.2-5.5 times the respective values at other temperature regimes. The numbers of progeny produced at 27℃-rearing, 164±33 workers, 553±174 males and 33±48 queens were also higher, corresponding to 21.8 and 1.5 times those at 23℃ and 30℃, respectively. In terms of humidity, 65% R.H. was favorable for big colony formation. Under the same humidity, the rates of colony initiation, colony foundation and progeny-queen production were 85%, 70% and 50%, respectively, and the number of progenies reached 180±30 workers, 578±179 males and 35±38 queens. Therefore, 27℃ and 65% R.H. were determined to be the favorable environmental conditions for colony development of B. ignitus in indoor rearing. It was investigated whether developmental characteristics of foundation queens of B. ignitus collected in the 4 localities in Korea would be affected by the first oviposition days of them. The first ovipostion day was classified as 1 - 4 days (immediate early), 5 - 6 days (early), 7 - 10 days (delayed early), 11 - 20 days (medium), 21 - 40 days (late), and above 41days (very late). The queen that had the early first oviposition day, i.e., laid eggs so early after starting to be raised indoors, showed much higher rate of colony foundation and progeny-queen production and much shorter period of colony foundation and worker emergence. Besides, the numbers of worker and progeny-queen emerged from the queen that had the early first oviposition day were higher than those of the queen that had the late first oviposition. In results, the queen that had the early first oviposition day could make colony stronger and could make colony formation period shorter, therefore, the first oviposition day of foundation queen was proved to be a criterion for the selection of super colonies when B. ignitus is raised indoors. It was investigated whether or not such helpers as worker bee, bee-cocoon and egg-cup etc, have any effects on oviposition and colony foundation of the bumblebee queen, B. ignitus. Among the helpers tested, the callow workers of B. ignitus and B. terrestris showed the most remarkable effects on the oviposition rates to 92% and 88%, respectively. The live cocoon as a helper improved oviposition rate over 60%. A narcotized old worker 10 days-aged after emergence, showed similar effects to a callow worker on the colony development such as oviposition rate, colony foundation and progeny-queen production. On the other hand, dried cocoon, callow honeybee worker or egg-cup did not show a positive effect as a helper. In the number of workers recruited to a foundation queen, two workers showed better effect than one worker on the colony development, with no difference between two and more. The effect of photoperiodic regimes on the oviposition and colony development of B. ignitus queens was examined with 0L, 8L, and 16L under 2 7℃ and 65% R. H. Among these photoperiod regimes, the oviposition rate at 8L and 16L was 80.2% and 83.1%, respectively, which was 12-15% higher than that at the dark condition (0L). Duration up to first oviposition at 8L and 16L was 17.5 days and 16.5 days, respectively, which was 2-3 days shorter than that at 0L. The colony foundation rate at 8L and 16L was 9.2% and 10.4%, respectively, which corresponded to 1.7-2.0 fold the value at 0L. In addition, the rate of progeny-queen production at 8L and 16L was also two fold higher than that at 0L. Taken there together, the light conditions (8L and 16L) rather than dark condition (0L) were more suitable for oviposition and colony development for B. ignitus in the indoor rearing condition. We investigated mating conditions of photoperiod, illumination and temperature during mating periods, care temperature of queen before mating, mating period and number of queen per mating cage to improve mating rate of B. ignitus. Among photoperiodic regimes of 12L, 14L and 16L during mating periods, queen mated at 14L showed better results than at 12L and 16L in egg-laying characteristics and colony development. In case of illumination during mating periods, intensity of 1000 lux was more effective than at intensity of 100 lux and 2000 lux in mating B. ignitus queen. Mating temperature and care temperature of queen before mating favorable for B. ignitus queen were 22-25? and 19?, respectively. The period need to mating B. ignitus queen was 3 days, and the number of queen suitable per mating cage of 55× 45× 65 ㎝ was 30. The effect of CO2-treatment on interrupting diapause of B. ignitus was examined to provide a means for year-round rearing of the bumblebee. When mated young queens were exposed to 65% or 99% CO2 for 30 min daily during two consecutive days, oviposition rate increased to 75% and 77%, respectively, comparing 50% in CO2-untreated queens. At the same time, the days needed to first oviposition shortened to 17-18 days in CO2-treated queens, comparing to 30 days in CO2-untreated queens. CO2-treatment at the second day after mating was appropriate to the oviposition and colony development. CO2-treatment showed a positive effect on the oviposition and colony development, but less than them of over-wintered queen in numbers of produced progeny. It can be concluded that CO2-treatment to B. ignitus is insufficient to produce commercial grade bumblebee colony in spite of its capability for promoting oviposition, because the treatment failed to form a big colony. Artificial hibernation is essential for year-round rearing of the bumblebee, B. ignitus that undergoes one generation per year. It is known that keeping the queens in low temperature for two or three months is effective to terminate their diapause and develop the colony. Temperature, time and surroundings to keep the queens during artificial hibernation were investigated. Among the tested temperatures, -2.5°C, 0°C, 2.5°C, and 5°C, the optimum temperature was 2.5°C. At the temperature (2.5°C), survival rate after chilling of the queens was high and colony development thereafter was enhanced. The proper time to initiate chilling queen was 10 to 14 days after adult eclosion, and the survivability of the queens after chilling was good during the upper period. For the surrounding to keep the queen during artificial hibernation, we proposed the method to preserve them in a bottle filled with perlite and keep it around 80% R. H.

Jung, Jong-Min,Lee, Jechan,Kim, Jieun,Kim, Ki-Hyun,Kim, Hyung-Wook,Jeon, Young Jae,Kwon, Eilhann E. Elsevier 2016 Science of the Total Environment Vol.566 No.-

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>This work confirmed that dominant microalgal strain in the eutrophic site (the Han River in Korea) was <I>Microcystis aeruginosa</I> (<I>M. aeruginosa</I>) secreting toxins. Collected and dried microalgal biomass had an offensive odor due to microalgal lipid, of which the content reached up to 2±0.2wt.% of microalgal biomass (dry basis). This study has validated that the offensive odor is attributed to the C<SUB>3–6</SUB> range of volatile fatty acids (VFAs), which was experimentally identified by the non-catalytic transformation of triglycerides (TGs) and free fatty acids (FFAs) in microalgal biomass into fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs). In particular, this study mechanistically investigated the influence of CO<SUB>2</SUB> in the thermal destruction (<I>i.e.</I>, pyrolysis) of hazardous microalgal biomass in order to achieve dual purposes (<I>i.e.</I>, thermal disposal of hazardous microalgal biomass and energy recovery). The influence of CO<SUB>2</SUB> in pyrolysis of microalgal biomass was identified as 1) the enhanced thermal cracking behaviors of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the thermal degradation of microalgal biomass and 2) the direct gas phase reaction between CO<SUB>2</SUB> and VOCs. These identified influences of CO<SUB>2</SUB> in pyrolysis of microalgal biomass significantly enhanced the generation of CO: the enhanced generation of CO in the presence of CO<SUB>2</SUB> was 590% at 660°C, 1260% at 690°C, and 3200% at 720°C. In addition, two identified influences of CO<SUB>2</SUB> (<I>i.e.</I>, enhanced thermal cracking and direct gas phase reaction) occurred simultaneously and independently. The identified gas phase reaction in the presence of CO<SUB>2</SUB> was only initiated at temperatures higher than 500°C, which was different from the Boudouard reaction. Lastly, the experimental work justified that exploiting CO<SUB>2</SUB> as a reaction medium and/or chemical feedstock will provide new technical approaches for controlling syngas ratio and <I>in-situ</I> air pollutant control without using catalysts.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Identification of dominant microalgal strains as <I>M. aeruginosa</I> was carried out. </LI> <LI> Enhanced thermal destruction induced by CO<SUB>2</SUB> </LI> <LI> Direct gas phase reaction between CO<SUB>2</SUB> and volatile organic carbons (VOCs) </LI> <LI> Significant tar reduction in the presence of CO<SUB>2</SUB> </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

Enhanced CO2 adsorption of activated carbon with simultaneous surface etching and functionalization by nitrogen plasma treatment

Chaehun Lim,Cheol Hwan Kwak,Seo Gyeong Jeong,Daesup Kim,Young‑Seak Lee 한국탄소학회 2023 Carbon Letters Vol.33 No.1

Removing CO2 gas to address the global climate crisis is one of the most urgent agendas. To improve the CO2 adsorption ability of activated carbon, nitrogen plasma surface treatment was conducted. The effect of nitrogen plasma treatment on the surface chemistry and pore geometry of activated carbon was extensively analyzed. The porosity and surface groups of the activated carbon varied with the plasma treatment time. By plasma treatment for a few minutes, the microporosity and surface functionality could be simultaneously controlled. The changed microporosity and nitrogen groups affected the CO2 adsorption capacity and CO2 adsorption selectivity over N2. This simultaneous surface etching and functionalization effect could be achieved with a short operating time and low energy consumption.

이현철,서의영,민경원 한국자원공학회 2014 한국자원공학회지 Vol.51 No.1

This study has been carried out in order to treat mine drainage from abandoned mine using carbonation process, one of the calcium carbonate precipitating methods. Carbonation treatment of mine drainage were conducted with the 500 ml of artificial mine drainage added 0.795 g of Hydrated lime in various experimental conditions of stirring speed (100, 200, 300 rpm) and CO2 injection rate (0.5, 1, 2 L/min). Results of carbonation treatment were compared with those of neutralization treatment without CO2 injection. While neutralization treatment showed generally an efficient removal of heavy metals, carbonation treatment resulted in total removal of Al and Cu, an efficient removal of Fe and Zn in some conditions, and an inefficient removal of Mn and Mg. Precipitates identified by XRD and SEM-EDS were calcite in the carbonation treatment, and amorphous or gypsum in the neutralization treatment. 침강성 탄산칼슘을 제조하는 방법의 하나인 탄산화법을 이용하여 휴・폐광산으로부터 배출되는 광산배수를 처리하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 광산배수의 탄산화처리는 500 ml의 인공광산배수에 소석회 포화농도 0.795g을 투입하고 교반속도(100, 200, 300 rpm)와 CO2 주입량(0.5, 1, 2 L/min)을 달리하여 실시하고, CO2를 주입하지 않은 중화처리의 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 실험결과 중화처리는 전체적으로 중금속의 제거가 효율적인 것으로 나타났으나, 탄산화처리는 Al, Cu만 100% 제거가 가능하였고, Fe, Zn는 일부조건에서 제거가 가능하였으며, Mn, Mg는 처리에 다소 비효율적인 것으로 나타났다. 침전물을 대상으로 XRD, SEM-EDS 분석을 실시한 결과 탄산화처리 침전물은 방해석으로 중화처리 침전물은 비정질 또는 석고로 확인되었다.

Effects of Supercritical CO2 Treatment on Color, Lipid Oxidation, Heme Iron, Non-Heme Iron and Metmyoglobin Contents in Ground Pork

Shirong Huang,Min Tang,Fenfen Chen,Shengnan Zhao,Dongfang Chen 한국축산식품학회 2024 한국축산식품학회지 Vol.44 No.2

The color, lipid oxidation, heme iron (HI) and non-heme iron (NHI) contents, metmyoglobin content and Soret band of myoglobin of ground pork subjected to supercritical CO2 treatment under different conditions, or to heat treatment (40℃, 2 h) and subsequent storage at 4℃ were evaluated during 9-day period. Supercritical CO2 treatment significantly increased CIE L* and CIE b* values of ground pork during subsequent storage, while the HI content was slightly affected. In general, CIE a* value and metmyoglobin content were decreased. Supercritical CO2 treatment for 2 h could increase the thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) value, while treatment for 1 h or less had no effect. The NHI content could be increased only after treatment at above 40℃ or 17.2 MPa for 2 h. The Soret band of myoglobin was shifted to longer wavelength. Increasing treatment temperature from 35℃ to 45℃ could increase CIE L*, CIE a*, CIE b* and TBARS values, HI and NHI contents of the ground pork, while decreasing metmyoglobin content. As the treatment pressure increased from 13.8 MPa to 20.7 MPa, CIE b* and TBARS values were decreased, while the NHI and metmyoglobin contents were increased. However, the other parameters were unchanged. Extending exposure time from 0.5 h to 2 h could increase CIE L*, CIE b* and TBARS values, HI contents, while decreasing CIE a* value and metmyoglobin content. Correlation analysis showed that the TBARS value was significantly and negatively correlated with the HI content or metmyoglobin content in samples treated at 40℃ or above for 2 h.
