삼중수소 제거 공정에 이용되는 소수성 고분자촉매의 담체인 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 공중합체의 제조 특성을 실험하였다. 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 고분자담체의 제조시 담체의 표면 특성에 대한 중합용액의 안정화 영향을 실험한 결과 약 40~55$^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 2시간 이상 용액을 안정화 시키는 것이 가장 바람직하였다. 또한 후처리 방법은 담체를 건조시키기 전에 용매를 제거하는 방법이 가장 우수한 기공 특성을 나타내었다. 담체의 입자 크기는 계면활성제의 농도가 낮을수록 더 크게 생성되었지만 용액의 점도가 증가하면 계면활성제의 영향이 감소됨을 알 수 있었다.

고분자 담체의 경우 표면의 화학적 성질인 소수성과 물리적 성질인 표면거칠기는 미생물 부착과 관련이 있지만 두 요소 중, 표면거칠기의 영향이 더 크다고 볼 수 있으며 담체 표면의 소수성이 작고 표면거칠기가 클수록 혐기성 미생물이 잘 부착되었다.

소수성 고운자촉매는 중수형 원자력발전소의 감속재 및 냉각재로 사용되는 중수의 제조, 그리고 발전소의 가동에 따라 중수중에 축적되는 삼중수소의 제거공정 둥에 이용된다. 여러 소수성 담체중 하나인 소수성 고분자담체를 제조하기 위하여 스티렌-디비닐벤젠의 제조 특성을 실험하였다. 제조된 담체에 백금 금속을 담지시켜 촉매를 완성한 후 삼중수소제거 실증실험을 통하여 촉매성능을 확인하였다. 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 고분자담체의 제조시 담체의 기공 특성 및 비표면적에 대한 용매의 영향을 실험하였다. 또한 용매비를 변화시킨 경우에는 solvating power 값을 계산하여 거시기공 형태의 담체 형성기준을 정하였고 여기에 따른 기공 특성 및 비표면적 변화를 부인하였다. 담체의 제조 후 후처리 방법을 변화시켜 기공 특성 및 비표면적 변화를 확인하였고, 이의 결과를 통하여 적절한 후처리 방법을 정하였다. 담체의 입자크기를 조절하기 위해 중합반응 과정중의 교반속도를 변화시켜 담체의 크기 변화를 실험하였다. 제조된 담체에 백금 금속을 담지시켜 촉매를 완성한 후 삼중수소제거 반응실험을 통해 촉매의 활성을 확인하였다.

고분자 촉매 담체인 스티렌-디비닐벤젠의 제조시 중합반응 개시제의 함량에 따른 영향과 반응기의 재질에 따른 영향을 수소흡착실험을 통하여 확인하였다. 담체의 중합반응시 제조조건이 동일하다 할지라도 개시제의 함량에 따라서 담체의 기공 특성이 달라지므로 개시제의 함량은 모노머 양의 1%를 사용한 시료가 수소흡착능이 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 반응기의 재질은 teflon으로 직접 제조한 것보다는 teflon으로 코팅 처리한 것이 더 수소흡착능이 좋은 것으로 확인되었다.

중수형 발전소에서 삼중수소 제거나 중수생산과 관련된 수소동위원소 교환반응용으로 이용되는 소수성 고분자촉매의 담체인 스티렌-디비닐벤젠 공중합체의 촉매금속인 백금의 흡착 특성을 관찰하였다. 백금담지실험을 위해 고분자담체를 제조하였으며, 항상 일정한 표면적과 기공분포를 얻을 수 있었다. 백금담지실험결과 10시간 정도가 지나면 흡착평형에 도달함을 알 수 있었으며, 흡착평형실험 결과는 Langmuir model을 잘 따르고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, two types of catalysts were prepared via conventional metal supporting method and encapsulation of metal nanoparticles in the polyelectrolyte multilayers constructed on support. The resulting catalysts were applied to the direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide, and the effect of catalyst preparation method on the catalyst life as well as hydrogen peroxide productivity was investigated. The catalytic activity was strongly dependent upon the acid strength of support regardless of the catalyst preparation methods and HBEA (SAR=25) with strong acidity was superior to other supports to promote the reaction. In the case of metal supported catalyst, while hydrogen peroxide productivity was higher than that of polyelectrolyte multilayered counterpart, the reaction performance was sharply decreased during catalyst recycling due to the metal leaching. On the other hand, construction of polyelectrolyte multilayers on support weakened the influence of acid support on the reaction medium and therefore resulted in the decrease of catalytic activity and the increase of hydrogen peroxide decomposition as well. It is noted, however, that the catalytic activity was maintained after 5 recycles, which suggests that the introduction of polyelectrolyte multilayers on the support is very effective to suppress the unfavorable metal leaching phenomenon during a reaction.

As an alternative for the traditional materials packed in biofilters treating gaseous VOCs, a novel packing material has been developed and tested. In the packing material(named as Hydrogel Bead, HB), pollutant-degrading microorganisms were immobilized in hydrogel consisted of alginate, polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), and powdered activated carbon. A closed-bottle study showed that the HB rapidly removed gaseous styrene without the losses of adsorption and biodegradation capacity. Biofilter column experiments using the HBs also demonstrated that greater than 95% of removal efficiencies were found at an inlet styrene loading rate of $245g/m^3/hr$, which was higher biofilter performance than other elimination capacity reported earlier. Furthermore, when the inlet styrene concentration increased stepwise, the adsorption played an important role in overall styrene removals. The absorbed styrene was found to be biodegraded in the following low inlet loading condition. Consequently, the new HB material is able to successfully minimize the drawbacks of activated carbon(necessity of regeneration) and biological processes(low removal capacity at dynamic loading conditions), and maximize the overall performance of biofilter systems treating VOCs.

The microbial immobilization media with curdlan and activated carbon which has great immobilization capacity has been developed. Characteristics of porosity and mechanical strength of this support media are dependent on manufacturing method. The support media showed the best cell immobilization performance when the ratio of curdlan and activated carbon was 30 g/L to 6 g/L in this study. The immobilization of iron-oxidizing bacteria on the supporting particles was photographed with a scanning electron microscope. Since cell concentration on the surface of supporting particle increased with the reaction time, the iron oxidation rate also increased.

Double-layered polymeric carrier was designed for release control of hydrophilic drug in oral administration. Biopolymeric chitosan and alginate were examined as polar absorbents, poly(D,L-lactide) as a hydrophobic shell, and theophylline and diclofenac sodium as loading drugs. The fabrication of the carriers was prepared in the form of double-layered microsphere for delayed and successively extended release, which consisted of outer shell of poly(D,L-lactide) and inner core of alginate or chitosan with drugs. Morphologies and drug-release behaviors of the carriers were investigated, which were influenced by a combination of polarity between carrier and drug. It was confirmed that the relative polarities of the carriers, the drugs, and the environmental pH affected significantly the drug-release property.

This study represents the synthetic characteristics of styrene-DVB copolymer which is used as a catalyst support for the removal of tritium in CANDU. To evaluate the effect of solvent on the styrene-DVB polymeric support, the solvating power dependent on various kinds and composition of solvents was calculated. In order to synthesize the macroreticular type polymer bead, the following conditions are needed; solvating power should be higher than 1 for 20% of crosslinkage and higher than 3 for 40% of crosslinkage. Stabilization of organic monomers at about $40^{\circ}C$ for more than 2 hours is prerequisite. Removal of solvent prior to drying is preferred for the post-treatment of the bead. The polymer particle size was increased by lowering concentration of surfactant and stirring speed.
