Emission characteristics of nitric oxides and carbon monoxide from a porous media combustor has been experiment studied. The relationship between the change of flame shape and emission has also been examined. As the equivalence ratio decreases, the flame shape on the ceramic matrix plate changes from a diffusion flame, R(radiant)-type flame, to B(Blue)-type flame. With large fuel flow rate, R-type flame turns to be two dimensional R-II type flame around the equivalence of 0.7. Carbon monoxide emission increases very rapid with decreasing equivalence ratio. It changes a lot from some 10 ppm to 100-10,000 ppm with the change of flame type from R-I to R-II type. Nitric oxide emission from the premixed burner is less than 25 ppm over all range of fuel flow rate, which is less than 20% of NOx emission from conventional gas burners.

제 2세대 직접분사식 가솔린 기관에서 6공 연료분사기의 연료분무특성을 관찰하였다. 실험에 사용한 직접분사식 가솔린 기관은 2개의 흡입밸브와 2개의 배기밸브를 갖는 텀블형 Spray Guided 연소실과 Quartz로 제작된 실린더 라이너와 실린더 헤드 창으로 구성되어 있다. 선회유동을 유도하기 위하여 흡입매니폴드에 선회유동 제어밸브를 부착하였다. 2차원 Mie 스캐터링 기법을 이용하여 연료분사시기, 연료분사압력과 실린더 내 유동 및 냉각수 온도가 연료분무에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 실험결과로는 흡기과정동안 흡기 선회유동은 분사된 연료의 공간적 분포에 크게 작용하였고, 압축과정동안에는 텀블 및 선회유동의 영향이 흡기과정에 비해 크지 않음을 확인하였다. 또한 성층연소를 위해서 압축과정에서 연료를 분사하는 경우 고압의 연료분사압은 분무도달거리의 성장을 촉진시키나 상승하는 피스톤과 이로 인한 실린더 압력의 상승으로 분무도달거리의 성장이 억제됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Alkali metal compounds existed in original coal or sorbents are exhausted as vapor or small particle at the outlet of combustor when operating PFBC power plant. These compounds can be removed with dust removal equipment, but total generation efficiency will be decreased because of lower operating temperature of dust removal equipment. Alkali metal contained in vapor phase is initially deposited onto turbine blade results in serious corrosion. The concentration of alkali vapor in the PFBC flue gas is 20∼40 ppm which is dependent on mineral characteristics and composition as well as operating condition of PFBC. However, the allowance limit of alkali metal vapor is assigned as less than 50 ppb for gas turbine when coal or oil is used as fuel. Therefore, alkali metal vapor in PFBC or IGCC process should be removed by solid sorbents to prevent corrosion of turbine blade and improve plant efficiency. In the present investigation, powder of Bauxite, Kaolinite and Limestone is used in the preparation of cylinder-type pellet which is inserted into the pressurized alkali removal reactor for the alkali absorption experiment. Experimental results showed that the alkali removal efficiency in the order of Bauxite, Kaolinite and Limestone. Alkali vapor removal efficiency is related with reaction temperature, porosity of pellet and alkali vapor concentration of flue gas.

Global warming due to greenhouse gas emissions is considered as a major problem worldwide, and many countries are making great efforts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Many technologies in post-combustion, pre-combustion and oxy-fuel combustion $CO_2$ capture have been developed. Among them, a hybrid pre-combustion $CO_2$ capture system of a water gas shift (WGS) reactor and a membrane gas separation unit was investigated. The 2 stage WGS reactor integrated high temperature shift (HTS) with a low temperature shift (LTS) was used to obtain a higher CO conversion rate. A Pd/Cu dense metal membrane was used to separate $H_2$ from $CO_2$ selectively. The performance of the hybrid system in terms of CO conversion and $H_2$ separation was evaluated using a 65% CO, 30 % $H_2$ and 5% $CO_2$ gas mixture for applications to pre-combustion $CO_2$ capture. The experiments were carried out over the range of WGS temperatures ($200-400^{\circ}C$), WGS pressures (0-20bar), Steam/Carbon (S/C) ratios (2.5-5) in a feed gas flow rate of 1 L/min. A very high CO conversion rate of 99.5% was achieved with the HTS-LTS 2 stage water gas shift reactor, and 83% $CO_2$ was concentrated in the retentate using the Pd/Cu membrane.

Various sizes of hydrazine monopropellant thruster have been used on satellite and space launcher vehicle. The test and handling procedure of hydrazine monopropellant thruster are usually difficult because of the toxicity of hydrazine and its decomposition product gases. Therefore, the numerical analysis can help understand the effects of various design parameters and can reduce the time as well as expenses. In this study, the numerical analysis is performed by modelling the catalyst bed as one dimensional porous medium. Thereby, resulting physical phenomena are examined by considering the variation of catalyst bed characteristics incurred by catalyst granule failure.

1. 서론 : 적절한 이산화탄소의 분리는 지구온난화의 가속현상을 늦출 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 각종 탄화수소가스의 원료로 분리 정제된 이산화탄소를 재이용할 수 있으므로 경제적으로 매우 중요하다. 이산화탄소 분리에 사용되던 기존 공정들의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 대체방안으로 최근에 개발되기 시작한 것이 소수성의 다공성 고분자 분리막(hydrophobic porous ploymeric membrane) 방법인데, 이는 모듈의 유효 막 표면적이 상대적으로 크고 기체와 액체의 흐름을 독립적으로 제어할 수 있으므로 범람 등의 현상이 없으나 막 자체의 저항이 비교적 큰 단점을 가지고 있다. Qi와 Cussler는 이러한 특성을 가지는 중공사막 모듈에서의 기-액 흐름에 대한 물질전달 상관관계식을 얻었으며[1], Karoor 등은 여러 가지 중공사막 모듈을 사용하여 순수물과 diethanolamine(DEA) 등의 흡수제에 대한 이산화탄소의 물질전달 거동을 수치모델과 실험을 통하여 고찰하였다[3]. 또한 중공사막 접촉기의 실제적 응용에 대하여 Matsumoto 등은 화력발전소에서 발생하는 연소가스 내의 이산화탄소 흠수에 대한 연구를 수행하였다[4]. 본 연구에서는 중공사막 접촉장치를 사용하여 흡수제를 순수물과 탄산칼륨($K_2CO_3$)을 사용했을 경우의 이산화탄소의 분리 거동을 수치모델과 실험을 통하여 고찰하였다. 수치모델의 경우 이전까지의 연구가 반응이 없는 경우나 반응식을 간략화시킨 경우에 한정되었는데 비하여, 반으이 있는 경우 각각의 반응물질들의 거동을 고려한 반응식을 유도하여 해를 구하고자 하녔다.

Bimodally porous ${\gamma}$-alumina granules, including mesopores (2~50 nm) and macropores (>50 nm), were prepared by sol-gel and oil-drop method. Mesopores are made from the voids among the alumina crystallites, while macropores are from the space of the decomposed PS particles used as physical templates during the granulation process. The product ${\gamma}$-alumina granules with the average diameter of 2 mm were characterized by FE-SEM, XRD, FT-IR, $N_2$ porosimetry, and universal mechanical testing system.

A thin and porous non-flammable wiper was prepared by phosphorus acid solution treatment and subsequent oven annealing. The H₃PO₃ treatment improved flame retardancy of wiper paper to nonflammable level. Thermogravimetric analyses showed that residues increased to 50% at 700℃, which means this treatment helps dehydration of the cellulose chain and promotes the formation of char-like structures during the burning. FT-IR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed that some of the added H₃PO₃ could react with the functional groups of the cellulose chain. The reacted H₃PO₃ components promote dehydration of the cellulose components and the formation of a char-like structure and improve the flame retardancy of the wiper paper.

Disposal of high amount of coal combustion by-products, such as fly ash and bottom ash, is of a great concern to the country, due to the huge treatment cost and land requirement. On the other hand, those coal-ash wastes are considered to have desirable characteristics that may improve physical, chemical, and biological properties of soils. Especially, compared with fly ash, bottom ash has a larger particle size, porous surface area, and usable amount of micronutrients. In the present study, we examined bottom as a soil amendment for mitigating $CO_2$ emission and enhancing carbon sequestration in soils fertilized with organic matter (hairy vetch, green barely, and oil cake fertilizer). Through laboratory incubation, $CO_2$ released from the soil was quantitatively and periodically monitored with an enforced-aeration and high-temperature respirometer. We observed that amendment of bottom ash led to a marked reduction in $CO_2$ emission rate and cumulative amount of $CO_2$ released, which was generally proportional to the amount of bottom ash applied. We also found that the temporal patterns of $CO_2$ emission and C sequestration effects were partially dependent on the relative of proportion labile carbon and C/N ratio of the organic matter. Our results strongly suggest that amendment of bottom ash has potential benefits for fixing labile carbon as more stable soil organic matter, unless the bottom ash contains toxic levels of heavy metals or other contaminants.
