Magnetic separation was carried out in order to improve the magnetite grade of the spent iron oxide catalyst, that was composed with magnetite, ceria and soluble alkaline salt. The recovery of magnetite from the spent iron oxide catalyst was over 99%, and the magnetite contents was upgraded to about 80% from 70% via wet type magnetic separation at 500 Gauss. This improvement was due to the removal of alkaline salt by water instead of the magnetic separation.

Ceria ($CeO_2$) becomes one of important functional nanomaterials and a key abrasive material for chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) of advanced integrated circuits in silicon semi-conductor technology. Two synthetic crystalline ceria (RT735, RT835) are studied by the Rietveld structural refinement to determine crystallite size and microstrain. Rietveld indices of RT735 and RT835 indicate good fitting with $R_p(%)=8.50$, 8.34; $R_{wp}(%)=13.4$, 13.5; $R_{exp}(%)=11.3$, 11.5; $R_B(%)=2.21$, 2.36; S(GofF: Goodness of fit)=1.2, 1.2, respectively. $CeO_2$ with space group Fm3m show a=5.41074(2), 5.41130(6) ${\AA}$, V=158.406(1), 158.455(3)${\AA}^3$ in dimension. Detailed Rietveld refinement reveals that crystallite size and microstrain are 37.42(1) nm, 0.0026 (RT735) and 72.80(2) nm, 0.0013 (RT835), respectively. It also shows that crystallite size and microstrain of ceria are inversely proportional to each other.

Platinum catalysts were prepared by impregnating platinum precursor on titania-, vanadia-, zirconia- and ceria-incorporated silicas followed by hydrogen peroxide treatment. The effects of the oxide incorporation and the hydrogen peroxide treatment in the preparation of the platinum catalysts on their platinum dispersion and catalytic activity in carbon monoxide oxidation were investigated. XRD, TEM, EXAFS, XPS and carbon monoxide chemisorption studies confirmed the high dispersion of platinum even on silica by the oxide incorporation and hydrogen peroxide treatment. However, the type of oxides incorporated on silica caused considerable variances in the adsorption and the catalytic activity in the oxidation of carbon monoxide on them. The incorporation of titania, zirconia and ceria on silica and further hydrogen peroxide treatment enhanced the platinum dispersion, resulting in the improved catalytic activities. Among the catalysts supported on the oxide-incorporated silicas, the platinum catalyst supported on zirconia-incorporated silica exhibited the highest activity because of the highest platinum dispersion due to the formation of Pt-O-Zr bonds.

This experiment was to know properties of Sericin Jam that development, growth of silkgland, content of sericin and composition of amino acid in hemolymph. The characters of Sericin Jam can he seen form this experiment. Hatching ratio was 85% in Sericin Jam and 95% in Jam 120. Especially hatching period of Sericin Jam was longer than Jam 120 and also hatching of Sericin Jam was ununiform. The larval duration of Sericin Jam was 20 days and 23 hours, and Jaw 120 was 21 days and 22 hours. In Sericin Jam, middle silkgland contain a great p arts in silkgalod and posterior silkgand is short and no curves. The period of mounting to emergence was 12 days in Sericin Jam. The period of pupa was 7day. It is property of Sericin Jam that the period is short. Cocoon was very thin and light in Sericin Jam. Weight of cocoon shell of Sericin Jam is 2.7cg. The sericin protein quantity was 100% in cocoon shell of Sericin Jam, about 28% in cocoon shell of Jam 120, however the sericin ratio per Sericin Jam cocoon was 34.6% compare to cocoon shell of Jaw 120 in sericin protein quantity. The amino acids in hemolymph of Sericin Jaw was much hidtidine, lysine, glut amic acid. And the amount of almost amino acids were increased depends upon development at t he 5th instar.

Yttia-doped ceria-stabilized ziconia polycrystals(Ce-TZP) was prepared by dipping method and its microstructure was investigated. By controlling doped-yttria content and annealing condition, yttria-doped Ce-TZP showed the microstructure with irregular grain shape and undulated grain boundary. Irregularity of grain shape increased with the amount of yttria doped, and severe undulated grain boundary was observed mainly at the surface region. In the case of yttria-doped Ce-TZP annealed at 1$650^{\circ}C$ for 2h after two dipping times into yttrium nitrate solution of 0.2M, it showed irregular grain shape both at the surface and at the interior region as well as the most severe irregularity. Hot pressed specimen had mean grain size of 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ and undulated grain boundary. All specimens with irregular grain shape were retained the tetragonal phase. The fracture toughness of yttria-doped Ce-TZP with irregular grain shape was over the value of 17.6MPa.m(sup)1/2.

Partail oxidation(POX) of n-butane was investigated in this research by employing ceria-promoted Ni/calcium hydroxyapatite catalysts ($Ce_xNi_{2.5}Ca_{10}(OH)_2(PO_4)_6$ ; x = $0.1{\sim}0.3$) which had recently been reported to exhibit good catalytic performance in POX of methane and propane. The experiments were carried out with changing ceria content, $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ ratio and temperature. As the $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ feed ratio increased up to 2.75, n-$C_4H_{10}$ conversion and $H_2$ yield increased and the selectivity of methane and other hydrocarbons decreased. But with $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ = 3.0, $n-C_4H_{10}$ conversion and $H_2$ yield decreased. This is considered due to that too much oxygen may inhibit the reduction of Ni or induce the oxidation of Ni, which results in poor catalytic activity. The optimum $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ ratio lay between 2.50 and 2.75. $Ce_{0.1}Ni_{2.5}Ca_{10}(OH)_2(PO_4)_6$ showed the highest $n-C_4H_{10}$ conversion and $H-2$ yield on the whole. In durability tests, higher hydrogen yield and better catalyst stability were obtained with the $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ ratio of 2.75 than with the ratio of 2.5.

Diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems are being used to reduce the particulate matter emission of diesel vehicles. The DPF should be regenerated after certain driving hours or distance to eliminate soot in the filter. The most widely used method is active regeneration with oxygen at $550{\sim}650^{\circ}C$. Syngas (synthetic gas) can be used to lower the regeneration temperature of Catalyzed DPF (CDPF). The syngas is formed by fuel reforming process of CPOx (Catalytic Partial Oxidation) at specific engine condition (1500rpm, 2bar) using 1wt.% $Rh/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ catalyst. The oxidation characteristics of PM with syngas supplied to filter were studied using partial flow system that can control temperature and flow rate independently. The filter is coated with washcoat loading of $25g/ft^3$ $Pt/Al_2O_3-CeO_2$, and multi-channel CDPF (MC-CDPF) was used. The filter regeneration experiments were performed to investigate the effect of syngas exothermic reaction on soot oxidation in the filter. For this purpose, before oxidation experiment, PM was collected about 8g/L to the filter at engine condition of 1500rpm, bmep 8bar and flow temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ Various conditions of temperature and concentration of syngas were used for the tests. Regeneration of filter started at 2% $H_2$ and CO concentration respectively and inlet temperature of $260^{\circ}C$. Filter Regeneration occurs more actively as the syngas concentration becomes higher.

Catalytic oxidation of toluene on the manganese oxide catalysts and manganese-cerium oxide catalysts was investigated. The catalysts were characterised by X-ray diffraction(XRD), thermo gravimetric analyzer(TGA), toluene-temperature program reduction(Toluene-TPR). We found that the optimal manganese content was 18.2 wt.% and the optimal cerium content was 10.0 wt.% at catalytic oxidation of toluene. It is shown that ceria improves the activity of manganese oxide phases. From the XRD results, it was estimated that $MnO_2$ phase was active site in the monometallic and bimetallic catalysts. From the TGA and Toluene-TPR results, it show that ceria improves the mobility of the lattice oxygen, adequate oxidation state of the active phase, reduction ability at low temperature, and re-oxidation of the active site.
