A large tons of spent iron oxide catalyst come from the Styrene Monomer(SM) production company. It is caused to pollute the land and underground water due to the high alkali contents in the catalyst by burying them in the landfill. In order to recycle the spent catalyst, a basic study on the recovery of chromium ion from metal plating wastewater with the spent catalyst was carried out. The iron oxide catalyst adsorbed physically $Cr^{+6}$ in the lower pH 3.0, that is the isoelectric point of the spent catalyst. It was found that the iron oxide catalyst reduced the $Cr^{+6}$ into Cr+3 by the oxidation of ferrous ion into ferric ion on the surface of catalyst, and precipitated as $Cr(OH)_3$ in the higher than pH 3.0. The $Cr^{+6}$ was recovered 2.0∼2.3g/L catalyst in the range of pH 0.5∼2.0, but it was recovered 1.5 g/L catalyst at pH 3.0 of wastewater. The recovery of Cr was increased as the higher concentration in the continuous process, but the flowrates were nearly affected on the Cr recovery.

$V_{2}O_{5}$/$TiO_{2}$ catalyst can be deactivated by ammonium salts formed by $SO_{2}$ oxidation and unreacted ammonium in presence of $SO_{2}$ in flue gas. The deactivation of catalyst by $SO_{2}$ depends on the $SO_{2}$ oxidation to $SO_{3}$. The oxidation of $SO_{2}$ is weakly affected by oxygen concentration, and strongly by the amount of vanadium loaded onto titania supports. Because unreacted ammonia is one of elements to form the ammonium salts, it is important to control the mole ratio of $NH_{3}/NOx$ in SCR. Thus the experiments about $NH_{3}/NOx$ were carried out. The reason of low activity of catalyst deactivated by ammonium salts is the change of pore volume. And TPD (Temperature Programmed Decomposition) was performed to find the decomposition of ammonium bisulfate on deactivated catalyst.

Nano-sized ZnO colloids were prepared by use of spray combustion method. for combustion reaction, $Zn(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ and $CH_6N_4O$ were employed as an oxidizer and a fuel. Exothermic peak was shown at $230^{\circ}C$ by DTA/TGA, and it was considered as a combustion reaction followed by ignition of the precursor mixture. In case of spray combustion method, because insufficient contents of molecules and radicals generated from precursor droplets may lead an incomplete igmition, the ignition temperature of combustion chamber was chosen at $500^{\circ}C$. For diminishing aerosol coagulation, the droplet number concentration was reduced by filter media. The fluid was laminar with 2.5 seconds of aerosol residence time. The synthesized colloids had spherical shape with 180 nanometer size, and the crystalline phase was ZnO with hexagonal structure.

Characteristics of hydrocarbon selective catalytic reduction of NOx using various noble metal catalysts were investigated. The best active metal is Pt, supports are $CeO_2$ and $TiO_2$ by strong interactions between active metals, and 55% of conversion rate of NOx is shown. Pd, Rh and Ag catalysts presented a conversion of less than 20% as active metals, and supports also showed the poor activity compared to $SiO_2$ and $ZrO_2$. Experiments were performed with different types of reducing agents, amount, concentration of oxygen and space velocity in order to investigate the performance of catalysts according to operating conditions. The results confirm that the methane is better than propane as a reducing agent, and as the ratio of methane/nitrogen oxide increases, the catalytic activity increased, as the concentration of oxygen increases and space velocity decreases, the performance of catalysts increased.

A study on the recovery of lithium and leaching behavior of NCM powder by carbon reduction for NCM-system Li-ion battery scraps was conducted. First of all, the oxide powders of NCM-system with layer structure were decomposed by carbon, lithium was converted to lithium carbonate by carbon reaction at above $600^{\circ}C$. The lithium carbonate powders with 99% purity were manufactured by washing method with water and concentration process for NCM powder after carbon reduction. The reaction yield was approximately 88% at $800^{\circ}C$ by carbon reduction. At this time, leaching efficiency at 2M sulfuric acid concentration was over 99% for cobalt, nickel and manganese.

Based on the cyclic voltammograms, potentiodynamic polarizations, transient and steady state Tafel plots and electrochemical impedence spectroscopy, we proposed the copper redox mechanism of the corrosion and passivation in artificial sea water. The copper redox mechanism showed the dependence of the concentration of oxygen in artificial sea water and electrode potentials.

전기분해에 의한 부상현상을 이용하여 토양세정 후 발생되는 유출수 중의 유수를 분리하기 위한 적정 운전조건에 관하여 고찰하였다. 전압에 의한 유수분리 효율을 관찰한 결과, 전기분해 1시간 후 3V의 전압만으로도 88% 정도의 제거율을 나타내었으며 6V 이상의 전압에서는 90% 정도로 거의 비슷한 제거율을 나타내어 대부분의 에멀젼이 분리됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 동일조건에서는 전기분해 시간이 경과될 수록 분리효율이 향상되었으며, 전극 간격이 넓어질수록 같은 효율을 얻기 위해 소요되는 전압의 크기가 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 전기분해 시 양극에서는 OH$^{-}$의 방전으로 발생되는 산소에 의해 산화반응이 일어나며, 음극에서는 H$^{+}$가 방전되어 발생되는 수소에 의해 환원반응이 일어나며 미세한 기포가 형성된다. 유분의 부상분리 현상은 유분의 (-)charge와 전기분해에 의해서 발생되는 양이온의 결합으로 인한 중화반응 및 음극에서 발생되는 미세 수소기포로 인만 부상분리가 대부분을 차지하며, 전압 및 전기분해 시간이 증가하고 전극 간격이 좁을수록 음극에서 발생되는 미세기포의 양이 증가되어 부상효과가 크게 나타나는 것으로 판단된다. 전극 종류는 구리 > 알루미늄 > 철 > 티타늄 순으로 효율을 나타내었으며, 이는 양극으로 사용된 이러한 금속들의 전기전도도 차이에 의해 일어나는 현상으로 판단된다

현재 고정원에서 상용화 촉매로서 사용되는 V$_{2}$O$_{5}$/TiO$_{2}$계 촉매는 고온 영역에서 최적 활성반응을 보이나 NH$_{3}$의 산화반응으로 인해 NO$_{X}$의 제거효율을 낮추는 원인과 가열설비의 추가적인 설치에 따른 초기 투자비, 운전비용 상승 및 촉매 수명 단축 등의 경제적, 기술적인 문제점을 나타내고 있다. 본 연구에서는 저온 영역에서 높은 활성반응을 나타내는 촉매기술의 SCR적용시 배출가스 온도의 100$^{\circ}C$ 감소에 따른 동력비의 절감과 촉매 수명 연장, 경제적, 기술적인 문제점을 해결할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, the direct amination of ethanol was performed over impregnated Ni on SiO2-Al2O3 mixed oxide catalysts prepared by varying Si/(Si + Al) molar ratio to 30 mol%. To characterize the physico-chemical properties of the catalysts used, X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2-physisorption, temperature-programmed desorption of iso-propyl alcohol (IPA-TPD), temperature-programmed desorption of ethanol (EtOH-TPD), temperature-programmed reduction with H2 (H2-TPR), H2-chemisorption and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used. The acidic property was continuously increased until Si/(Si + Al) = 30 mol% in SiO2-Al2O3 mixed oxides used. The dispersion of Ni metal and surface area, acid characteristics of the supported Ni catalyst have a complex effect on the catalytic reaction activity. The low reduction temperature of nickel oxide and acidic properties were beneficial to the formation of acetonitrile. In terms of conversion of ethanol, Ni/SiO2-Al2O3 catalyst with a molar ratio of 10 mol% Si/(Si+Al) showed the highest activity and a volcanic curve based on it. The tendency of results were consistent in the metal dispersion and catalytic activity.

Antioxidation effect of reduced electrolyzed water, which has been known as antiaging agent has been investigated with very simple method. Antioxidation effect of the reaction of linoleic acid with oxygen has been measured and analyzed. Alkaline reduced electrolyzed waters are better effect, rather acidic oxidized electrolyzed waters accelerates oxidation reaction.
