폐자동차의 최종처분 과정에서 발생하는 자동차 파쇄 폐기물(Automobile Shredder Dust)은 대부분이 고분자 화합물로 높은 발열량을 가지고 있다. 또한 할로겐족 원소가 포함된 난연성 고분자류가 많아 다이옥신의 생성 우려가 높은 고분자류와 다이옥신 생성의 촉매 역할을 할 수 있는 금속성분이 많이 함유되어 있어 가스화용융시스템에 적용하여 처리하기에 매우 적합한 폐기물이다. 본 연구에서는 ASR의 가스화 용융 시설에서 고농도 CO를 함유한 합성가스를 수성가스전환반응(Water Gas Shift reaction, WGS)을 이용하여 수소의 수율을 높이는 기술을 제시하였다. 가스화 용융 설비에서 배출되는 합성가스 조성을 기준으로 적합한 고정층 WGS 반응기를 설계하고, 고온 촉매(KATALCO 71-5M)와 저온 촉매(KATALCO 83-3X)를 사용하여 실험하였다. 수성가스 반응 후의 가스 조성은 온도가 상승할수록 일산화탄소가 줄어들고 이에 따라 수소와 이산화탄소 발생량이 증가 되어 고온 촉매를 사용했을 경우 일산화탄소 전환율 ($1-CO_{out}/CO_{in}$)은 55.6에서 95.8%까지 상승하였다. 동일한 온도조건에서는 촉매에 관계없이 $CO/H_2$가 감소할수록 전환율도 감소하는 경향을 보였지만 동일한 합성가스 조성에서 일산화탄소 전환율을 비교하면 저온 촉매가 고온 촉매보다 매우 우수함을 알 수 있었다.

This research was carried out to evaluate the effect of recycled wastewater and surfactant above CMC(critical micelle concentration) on the removal rate of PAHs in bench-scale slurry bioreactor. Kinetic parameters based on zero order and first order kinetic models were estimated. The first order model was able to describe the removal of phenanthrene and pyrene with high correlation coefficients. Addition of recycled wastewater could enhance the removal rates of phenanthrene and pyrene. Addition of surfactant above CMC could enhance desorption rate and removal rate of phenanthrene and pyrene.

본 연구는 자유지방산을 포함하고 있는 저품위 유지로부터 바이오디젤을 합성하는데 있어서 외부가열 방법 대신에 마이크로파를 이용한 내부 직접가열 방법으로 고체촉매 반응을 가속화한 연구에 관한 것이다. 대두유를 원료로 KOH 균일촉매를 이용한 전이에스테르화 실험에서는 섭씨 60도 상압조건에서 반응시간 3분에 95.4%의 전환율을 획득했다. 올레산과 고체산촉매를 이용한 자유지방산 제거 실험에서는 섭씨 60도 상압조건에서 solvent free 방식의 S-ZrO2는 반응시간 20분만에 93.7%의 제거율을 보였고 Rohm&Hass사의 Amberlyst-15dry 촉매는 반응시간 30분에 82.0%의 제거율을 보였다. 또한 바이오디젤 합성에 사용된 마이크로파의 총 에너지를 측정한 결과 외부가열 방법에 비해 약 1/3 수준임을 확인했다. 이것은 기존의 heat bath를 이용한 실험결과들과 비교할 때 반응속도가 약 10배 정도 향상되면서도 에너지효율이 높다는 것을 확인한 결과로서, 저품위 유지를 원료로 하는 바이오디젤 생산공정에서 마이크로파가 매우 효율적인 가열수단이 될 수 있음을 보여주었다.

In this study, a preconverter of an MCFC for an emergency electric power supplier is numerically simulated to increase the hydrogen production from natural gas (methane). A commercial code is used to simulate a porous catalyst with a user subroutine to model three dominant chemical reactions-steam reforming, water-gas shift, and direct steam reforming. To achieve a fuel conversion rate of 10% in the preconverter, the required external heat flux is supplied from the outer wall of the preconverter. The calculated results show that the temperature distribution and chemical reaction are extremely nonuniform near the wall of the preconverter. These phenomena can be explained by the low heat conductivity of the porous catalyst and the endothermic reforming reaction. The calculated results indicate that the use of a compact-size preconverter makes the chemical reaction more uniform and provides many advantages for catalyst maintenance.

Ion exchange fibers, high functionalized onto hybrid polyolefine fiber's surface, were synthesized by $\gamma-ray$ mutual radiation. Degree of grafting (DG) of copolymer increased with increasing GMA monomer concentration and the maximum rate of DG was 355% at 50 GMA. The graft reaction occurred in polar solvent and DG was 190% maximum value in $1.0\times10^{-3}$ Mohr's salt and 0.1 M sulfuric acid, respectively. The amination for graft copolymers varied depending on amine reagents, and the reactivity for copolymers was highest for methylamine, and that of triethylamine lowest. It was shown that water uptake and ion exchange capacities increased with increase in the rate of amination while surface area decreased rapidly as proceeding for graft reaction and amination.

The experiment was designed to study the char oxidation kinetics of pulverized coals commonly utilized in Korean power plants. The kinetics has been estimated using the Semenov's thermal spontaneous ignition theory adapted to coal char particle ignition temperature. The ignition temperature of coal char particle is obtained by a direct measurement of the particle temperature with photo detector as well as by means of a solid thermocouple which is used as both a heating and a measuring element. The ignition temperatures for subbituminous coal, Wira, and bituminous coal, Yakutugol, have been measured for 4 sizes in the range of 0.52-1.09 mm. The ignition temperature of the particle increases with the increasing diameter. The results were used to calculate the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor. As a result, the kinetic parameters are in an agreement with ones reported from other investigations.

Activity improvement of Ni metal catalysts for carbon dioxide reforming was studied using HY-zeolite as the main supporter. As the reaction temperature increased, $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ conversions increased, and conversions higher than 80% was obtained above $700^{\circ}C$. As the Ni loading increased, the catalyst activity increased, and the highest activity was shown for the Ni loading of 13wt%. The HY-zeolite support showed the highest intial conversions of $CH_4$ and $CO_2$, but it showed faster deactivation than a ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ support. Nevertheless, it maintained the $CH_4$conversion higher than 80% after 24 hr reaction. The effect of promoters such as Mg, Mn, K, and Ca was also studied. It was observed that the Mg promotor exhibited the highest catalyst activity and less deactivation compared with Mn, K and Ca. After 24hr reaction, The optimum Mg content was found to be 5wt%.

Effect of $H_2$ spillover rate as functon of calcination temperature on reaction kinetics was evaluated. Reaction kinetics including yield, conversion and selectivity of 1-butene isomerization over $Pt/HxMoO_3/SiO_2$ were measured as reaction temperature was increased. While conversion of 1-butane was decreased, yield of iso-butene was increased. Two kinds of reaction mechanism were proposed from the change of selectivity as function of temperature.

This study was carried out to investigate the reaction of lipase-catalyst transesterification using animal fat recovered from fleshing scrap generated during leather making process. Transesterification reaction between fat and primary or secondary alcohol was carried out under the condition of immobilized enzyme catalyst. The conversion rate was the highest when 1.5 mole of methanol was injected by 4 times. As for lipase, Candida antarctica showed the highest conversion rate of 82.2% among the 4 different lipases. It was found that water contained in the fat causes lower conversion rate. The condition of 1.2wt. % of water in the fat decreased the conversion rate by 40%. It was considered that the resulted reactant, fatty acid ester could be used as raw material for biodiesel with the characteristics of not generating SOx and diminishing smoke.

Closed-form expressions of vector gravity and gravity gradient tensor based on a line segment are derived. If a cylindrical object with axial symmetry is observed from a distance, it is possible to approximate it as a line segment; therefore, it is necessary to compute the gravity and the gravity gradient tensor due to a line source by using closed-form expressions. The gravitational potential for a line segment is defined as a one-dimensional integral, and this integral is differentiated with respect to the Cartesian coordinate system to derive the vector gravity. The expressions of the gravity gradient tensor are derived by differentiating the vector gravity once more in the same coordinate system.
