Demand for improving dust removal efficiency in coal power plants and the dust removal requirement to the level of capturing fine particulate matter and ultrafine particles have been increasing. While bag filter and electrostatic precipitator (ESP) are typically used for dust removal in the processes operating at atmospheric pressure, metal filters or ceramic filters are employed for dust which is produced at high temperature/pressure system as in coal gasification. For dust removal at the high temperature/pressure conditions, two metal filters of five compressed/sintered layers were manufactured and applied to analyze the dust removal characteristics. Manufactured metal filters exhibited more than 99% dust removal efficiency on coal gasification fine particulates in mass basis. To evaluate the fine particulate removal efficiency of less than $2.5{\mu}m$, JIS standard fine sample was used and confirmed the removal efficiencies of 97% and 70~82% on the fine particulates of $1{\sim}2.5{\mu}m$ size range. For the size range of less than $1{\mu}m$, dust removal efficiency of manufactured metal filters significantly degraded with smaller particle size. Improving methods are proposed to overcome the limitations in applying to fine dust of less than $1{\mu}m$.

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of crystalline organic-inorganic hybrid compounds formed by coordination of metal clusters or ions with organic linkers. MOFs have recently attracted intense research interest due to their permanent porous structures, large surface areas and pore volume, high-dispersed metal species, and potential applications in gas adsorption, separation, and catalysis. $CO_2$ adsorption in MOFs has been investigated in two areas of $CO_2$ storage at high pressures and $CO_2$ adsorption at atmospheric pressure conditions. In this short review, $CO_2$ adsorption/separation results using MOFs conducted in our laboratory was explained in terms of four contributing effects; (1) coordinatively unsaturated open metal sites, (2) functionalization, (3) interpenetration/catenation, and (4) ion-exchange. Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) were also considered as a candidate material.

Two types of CoMo/zeolite as well as $NiMo/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ were prepared and their activities and selectivities of low-temperature dibenzothiophene(DBT) hydrodesulfurization(HDS) were studied in high pressure fixed bed reactor. The HDS activities of CoMo/zeolites were higher than that of $NiMo/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at temperatures below $225^{\circ}C$ while they were lower than that of $NiMo/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at temperatures higher than $275^{\circ}C$. The main products from $NiMo/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ were biphenyl and cyclohexylbenzene. The product distribution of CoMo/zeolite catalysts was different from that of $NiMo/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. It is speculated that DBT is converted to alkylcyclohexane over zeolite based catalysts through both alkylation and hydrogenation reactions. The crystal structure of molybdenum was $MoO_3$ in fresh zeolite support while mixtures of $MoO_3$ and $MoS_2$ were observed in the aged catalyst.

Kerosene(Jet A-1), one of the propellants for each stage's engine of the Korea Space Launch Vehicle-II(KSLV-II), functions as coolant at the same time as it flows inside the cooling jacket of the combustion chambers and is injected through the film cooling holes. A physical surrogate mixture model to reproduce the thermophysical characteristics of Jet A-1 has been selected and the thermodynamic/transport properties of the model fuel under high pressure including supercritical conditions have been estimated using SUPERTRAPP(NIST SRD4). Comparisons with the measured properties suggest that proposed database can be used to extract properties of Jet A-1 for conjugate heat transfer analysis of liquid propellant rocket engine thrust chambers. Predicted combustion/cooling performance of regeneratively cooled thrust chambers shall be validated through comparisons with upcoming firing test results.

The crack length measurements by electrical potential(EP) method for 1% Cr-Mo-V and 12%Cr steel of 0.5T-CT specimen were performed at $500^{\circ}C, 600^{\circ}C 700^{\circ}C$, and an applicability of stress intensity factor($K_I$), net section stress($\sigma_{net}$), $C^*$-ingegral and $C_t$ parameter was studied to measure creep crack growth rate(da/dt) with side groove and without side groove under static and cyclic loading condition. The experimental result could be summarized as follows: 1) Crack measurement by EP method was available and coincided with the Johnson,s analytical equation. 2) da/dt by $K_I$ and $\sigma_{net}$ was not adequate because of the wide scatter band according to load and temperature, but $C^*$-integral, except for transition region, was adequate. 3) $C_t$ parameter showed the best fitted line through total creep region without relating with both temperature and load condition. 4) Under the cyclic loading condition, $C_t$ parameter was proper to extimate da/dt. And it was shown that da/dt for 1% Cr-Mo V steel under the static condition(R=1) was 1.16 times faster than the case under cyclic loading(R=0), and for 12% Cr steel, 1.43 times.

Recently, technical advances have been made in high efficiency gas turbine power plants. In domestic gas turbine facilities, the material properties of the blade and vane are degraded by the daily start-stop operations arising from the thermo mechanical cycle. We surveyed the time dependent degradation of the HP blade and vane to gather basic data for life assessment and damage analysis. The EOH(equivalent operating hours) of the blades were 23,686, 27,909, and 52,859 and the EOH of the vanes were 28,714 and 52,859, respectively. With increased operating hours, the shape of the primary ${\gamma}$' precipitate transformed from cubic to spherical, and its average size also increased. The leading edge area of the blades and the center of the vanes had the worst morphology, and this tendency agrees with the microhardness results. The thickness of the thermally grown oxide at the outer surface of the bond coat increased with increased operating hours.

Flow characteristics of base region of small scaled 4 nozzle clustered engine has been analyzed with CFD approach along with the tests of numerical methods. The numerical test shows that Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model is appropriate for the present research. Plumes expanded from nozzles exits collide with each other and make high pressure stagnation region. Some of collided plumes expand again reversely into the base region with supersonic speeds. The reversed plume in the base region goes out to the outer region through the minimum vent area formed by the nearest nozzle exterior surfaces. But different from the empirical theory, the minimum vent area does not play a role of throat. Additionally the temperature of the nozzle inner surface strongly affects the temperature of the reversed plumes.

In this study, a comparative study was performed to predict the vapor-liquid equilibria with maximum azeotropic pressure for ethanol-benzene binary system between an equation of state model and a liquid activity coefficient model. Peng-Robinson equation of state model with a Panatiotopoulos mixing rules (PRP) was used and NRTL liquid activity coefficient model proposed by Renon was selected. The PRP model, even though it has only two binary adjustable parameters, was not inferior to the NRTL model to predict vapor-liquid equilibria for low pressure region of ethanol-benzene system and showed a better prediction capability for high pressure region of ethanol-benzene system than the NRTL model with three binary interaction parameters.

Calcite(CaCO3) single crystals were grown hydrothermally and transmittance of as grown crystals was measured. Instead of platinium, teflon was lined onto the wall of autoclave to prevent the corrosion of autoclave wall by acidic NH4Cl solution. Spontaneous nucleation and growth of calcite crystal on teflon was reduced considerably by addition of NaCl and /or CH3COOH and applying low temperature gradient. When the temperature gradient exceeded to a few degrees from the critical temperature gradient(6-7℃), spontaneous nucleation and growth was rapidly increased in any hydrothermal solutions. Precise temperature control is thought to be the most important factor for the growth of calcite single crystal by hydrothermal technique. As grown calcite single crytal showed high transmittance compared to natural one by UV-visible analysis.
