Using Pseudomonas sp. B3, identified and isolated from nature, wastewater containing phenol was treated in a continuous stirred tank reactor and its reaction characteristics were studied. Average concentrations of phenol and COD in effluents were 1.5mg/L and 124mg/L at 0.059h-1 dilution rate, respectively. At the dilution rate higher than 0.063h-1, phenol and COD increased abruptly to 19mg/L and 318mg/L. At the dilution rate higher than 0.059h-1, biomass concentration suddenly decreased and was "washed out". Biomass concentration was 150mg/L at a dilution rate of 0.067h-1. Maximum biomass production rate was 15.98mg/L$.$h at a dilution rate of 0.067h-1. When dilution rate increased above 0.059h-1, effluent phenol concentration abruptly increased and biomass production rate decreased. Maximum cell growth rate(${\mu}$max) and Michaelis-Mentens kinetic constant(Ks) were 0.074h-1 and 0.424mg/L, respectively. From the above result low phenol concentration can be expected at a maximum dilution rate, but reactor becomes unstable due to phenol inhibition.

This study investigated performance of the phenol degradation and reaction characteristics according to variation of phenol volumetric loading rates and dilution rates in suspension and PACT reactors using Pseudomonas sp. B3. 1. Removal efficiencies of the PAC unit indicated about 100 % with phenol volumetric loading rates from 0.4 phenol $kg/ma^3\cdot d$ to 1.2 phenol $kg/m^3\cdot d$, however, which of the suspension reactor showed about 100% with from 0.2 phenol $kg/m^3\cdot d$ to 0.75 phenol $kg/ma^3\cdot day$. 2. The cell density slightly was decreased from 298.2 mg/l to 272 mg/l, when dilution rate for suspension was reactor increased from 0.4 to 1.41 1/d, and also the cell density suddenly was decreased to 145.5 mg/l and was washed out at the dilution rate higher than 1.60 1/d. But the cell density for the PAC unit was linearly decreased with dilution rate of from 0.8 to 3.0 1/d, and showed 220.75 mg/l at maximum dilution rate. 3. The phenol utilization rate was increased from 0.008 to 0.031 phenol g/l$\cdot$h, when dilution rate for suspension reactor was increased from 0.4 to 1.5 1/d, however, the rate for the PAC unit was linearly increased from 0.017 to 0.061 phenol g/l$\cdot$h as variation changes from 0.017 to 0.061 phenol g/l$\cdot$h dilution rate.

The present study has numerically investigated the effects of fuel-side dilution and pressure on flame structure and extinction scalar dissipation rate of turbulent syngas nonpremixedd flames. Numerical results indicate that for highly diluted case, peak temperature is decreased and stoichiometric mixture fraction is increased. By decreasing the pressure and the nitrgen dilution levelcreased, the extinction scalar dissipation rate is increased.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dilution rate and stored temperature of semen at 5, 25 and 35$^{\circ}C$ on fertility in liquid rooster semen. At 5$^{\circ}C$ cold temperature, no significant difference were found in sperm mobilities on dilution rate(1:1, 1:3, 1.6) among treatments. Sperm mobility for the conservation of 3 hours at 25∼35$^{\circ}C$ were significantly higher for 1:3 and 1:6 dilution rate(semen：diluent) groups than for 1:1 dilution rate group(P<0.05). In Fertility results after artificial insemination with the conservation of 3 hours at 5∼25$^{\circ}C$ temperature, no significant difference were found in fertility on dilution rate among treatments. Fertilities after artificial insemination with the conservation of 3 hours at 35$^{\circ}C$ were significantly higher for 1.3 and 1:6 dilution rate(semen：diluent) groups than for 1：1 dilution rate group(P<0.05).

Flameless combustion, well known as MILD (Moderate Intensity Low oxygen Dilution) combustion or CDC(Colorless Distributed Combustion), is considered as one of the promising technology for achieving low NOx and CO emissions with improving thermal efficiency of combustion system. In this paper, the effects of exhaust gas dilution rate on formation of flameless combustion of liquid fuel were analyzed using three-dimensional numerical simulations for application of gas turbine combustor with high power density. Results show that the local high temperature region was decreased and flame temperature was spatially uniformly distributed due to higher dilution rate of burnt gas as similar pattern of gas phase flameless combustion. But the evaporation and mixing process of liquid fuel are found to be another important factors for formation of flameless combustion.

In this study, the Dilution Method is used to measure river discharge through the hydraulic model test. the dilution method is divided into Constant-Rate-Infection Method and Slug-Injection Method in the river discharge measurement techniques. When the dilution method is applied in the hydraulic model flume, it is analyzed that the estimated error of constant-rate-injection method is less than that of the slug-in-jection method, and the result shows that floodflow analysis is more efficient than lowflow analysis as compared observed discharge with calculated discharge. The result of statistical error analysis shows that the constant-rate-injection method is appropriate technique for the measurement of the river discharge. Therefore, the dilution method among the river discharge measurement techniques can be applied for the river basin which can't be measured with current meter or unsteady-flow regime in the urban-small drainage or hydraulic structure equipment area and can be obtained more exact results than any other discharge measurement techniques.

Hydrodynamic mixing characteristics of submerged effluent discharges into Masan Bay were investigated by both field observations and numerical model simulations. CORMIX model, a length-scale mixing model, was adopted to obtain the near-field dilution and wastefield characteristics of the effluent discharges into Masan Bay. Model predictions of the near-field dilution rates were in a good agreement with field observations in summer and winter seasons. Seasonal variations in the dilution rates showed that the highest dilution rate was obtained in winter while the lowest dilution rate was in summer. As the effluent discharges are increased with the treatment capacity expansion to be completed by 2011, the dilution rates are expected to be much reduced and the near-field stability of the wastefields will become unstable due to the increased effluent discharges.

Cell density was gradually decreased as the dilution rate was increased under chemostat cultivation of HeLa cells. Maxium cell density was maintained at the dilution rate of 0.020 (1/h) which was far less than the wash-out rate of 0.050 (1/h), Maxium cell productivity of 2 (mL of cells/L/h)was obtained at the dilution rate of 0.030 (1/h) by showing the culture also required maintenance period at low dilution rates, whose result meant the deviation of continuous culture theroy. Methods of indirectly measuring cell density have been introduced to represent mammalian cell growth, which are packed cell volume and oxygen uptake rate, and these values showed good linear relationship with actual cell density by having correlation factor of 0.90. Theoretical maximum oxygen yield, $Y_{O2}^{max}$ and maintenance oxygen consumption rate, m$_{O2}$, were estimated as 4.1$\times$10$^5$ (cells/mmole $O_2$) and 10.71$\times$10$^{-9}$ (mmole $O_2$/cells/h) by employing oxygen yield model.

The characteristics of mild combustion and pollutant emission were investigated computationally with supplied air stream temperature and dilution rate in jet flame. The air was diluted with main combustion products. As dilution rate increased at fixed air temperature, the temperature distribution of burner inside was uniformed and the maximum mole fraction of CO and NO was decreased. In addition, emission indices for NO, CO, and $CO_2$ were compared with air temperature and dilution rate.

High-temperature corrosion resistance of martensitic-hardfaced weldment is generally evaluated by the Cr content depending on dilution rate. Present study used a commercial program(SYSWELD) applying three-dimensional heat flow analysis to predict temperature distribution of weld. Configuration of weld bead can be determined by the contour of melting temperature and simultaneously dilution rate is calculated to predict Cr content. Experimental study also has been conducted to measure Cr content of harfaced surface welded by FCAW. Results indicated that computational results were well matched with those obtained from experiments.
