황화수소와 암모니아는 많은 하수처리장과 산업 플랜트로부터의 배출가스에서 발견되어질 수 있는 가장 흔한 악취성분이다. 이들 유해물질들은 인간에게 건강 문제를 일으키고 촉매에 악영향을 미치기 때문에 생활환경과 산업 현장에서의 제거는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 황화수소와 암모니아에 대한 우수한 흡착능력을 가지는 흡착제를 개발하기 위하여 폐타이어의 열분해 생성물인 카본블랙을 이용하였다. 카본블랙, 금속산화물과 산 또는 염기를 혼합하여 펠렛형 흡착제를 제조하였고, 상온상압에서 고정층 흡착탑의 파과곡선을 이용하여 황화수소와 암모니아에 대한 흡착성능을 평가하였다. 카본블랙, 산화철(III)과 수산화나트륨 혼합물로 제조된 흡착제가 황화수소에 대한 가장 우수한 작업능력을 나타내었다. 암모니아에 대해서는 카본블랙, 산화구리(II), 염산의 혼합물로 제조된 흡착제가 우수한 작업능력을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 현열 형태의 저온 열원과 LNG의 냉열을 이용하는 복합 동력 생산시스템에 대한 열역학적 성능 해석을 수행하였다. 시스템의 작동유체로서 암모니아-물의 비공비 혼합물을 고려하였으며 재생기가 없는 기본 사이클과 있는 재생 사이클의 경우를 비교 해석하였다. 작동유체의 암모니아 농도나 응축 온도에 따라 시스템의 순생산일, 엑서지 파괴, 열효율이나 엑서지 효율 등에 미치는 다양한 영향에 대해 분석하고 논의하였다. 해석 결과는 시스템의 성능 특성이 작동유체의 암모니아 농도나 응축 온도에 따라 민감하게 변화하며, 열원유체 단위질량당 순생산일은 기본 사이클이 유리하나 열효율이나 엑서지 효율은 재생 사이클이 유리하다는 사실을 보여준다.

Since the temperature of waste heat source is relatively low, it is difficult to maintain high level of efficiency in power generation when the waste heat recovery is employed in the system. In an effort to improve the thermal efficiency and power output, use of ammonia-water mixture as a working fluid in the power cycle becomes a viable option. In this work, the performance of ammonia-water mixture based Rankine cycle is thoroughly investigated in order to maximize the power generation from the low temperature waste heat. In analyzing the power cycle, several key system parameters such as mass fraction of ammonia in the mixture and turbine inlet pressure are studied to examine their effects on the system performance. The results of the cycle analysis find a substantial increase both in power output and thermal efficiency if the fraction of ammonia increases in the working fluid.

Since the thermal performance of cycles for use of low-temperature source is low if a pure working fluid is used, the cycles using ammonia-water binary mixture as a working fluid has attracted much attention over past two decades. Recently, several commercial power plants using Kalina cycles have been built and being operated successfully. In this work thermodynamic performance of Kalina cycles using ammonia-water mixture as a working fluid is investigated for the purpose of extracting maximum power from low-temperature energy source. Special attention is paid to the effect of system parameters such as concentration of ammonia and turbine inlet pressure on the characteristics of the system. Results show that the system performance is influenced sensitively by the ammonia concentration, and the role of the performance of heat exchangers is crucial.

The power cycle using ammonia-water mixture as a working fluid is a possible way to improve efficiency of the system of low-temperature source. In this work thermodynamic performance of the ammonia-water regenerative Rankine cycle with partial-boiling flow is analyzed for purpose of extracting maximum power from the source. Effects of the system parameters such as mass fraction of ammonia, turbine inlet pressure or ratio of partial-boiling flow on the system are parametrically investigated. Results show that the power output increases with the mass fraction of ammonia but has a maximum value with respect to the turbine inlet pressure, and is able to reach 22 kW per unit mass flow rate of source air at $180^{\circ}C$.

Rankine cycle using ammonia-water mixture as a working fluid has attracted much attention, since it may be a very useful device to extract power from low-temperature heat source. In this work, the thermodynamic performance of regenerative ammonia-water Rankine cycle is thoroughly investigated based on the second law of thermodynamics and exergy analysis, when the energy source is low-temperature heat source in the form of sensible energy. In analyzing the power cycle, several key system parameters such as ammonia mass concentration in the mixture and turbine inlet pressure are studied to examine their effects on the system performance including exergy destructions or anergies of system components, efficiencies based on the first and second laws of thermodynamics. The results show that as the ammonia concentration increases, exergy exhaust increases but exergy destruction at the heat exchanger increases. The second-law efficiency has an optimum value with respect to the ammonia concentration.

This paper presents a comparative analysis of thermodynamic performance of ammonia-water Rankine cycles with and without regeneration and Kalina cycle for recovery of low-temperature heat source. Special attention is paid to the effect of system parameters such as ammonia mass fraction and turbine inlet pressure on the characteristics of the system. Results show that maximum net power can be obtained in the regenerative Rankine cycle for high turbine inlet pressures. However, Kalina cycle shows better net power and thermal efficiency for low turbine inlet pressures, and the optimum ammonia mass fractions of Kalina cycle are lower than Rankine cycles.

It is a great interest to convert more energy in the heat source into the power and to improve the efficiency of power generating processes. Since the efficiency of power generating processes becomes poorer as the temperature of the source decreases, to use an ammonia-water mixture instead of water as working fluid is a possible way to improve the efficiency of the system. In this work performance of ammonia-water regenerative Rankine cycle is investigated for the purpose of extracting maximum power from low-temperature waste heat in the form of sensible energy. Special attention is paid to the effect of system parameters such as mass fraction of ammonia and turbine inlet pressure on the characteristics of system. Results show that the power output increases with the mass fraction of ammonia in the mixture, however workable range of the mass fraction becomes narrower as turbine inlet pressure increases and is able to reach 16.5kW per unit mass flow rate of source air at $180^{\circ}C$.

The use of the ammonia-water zeotropic mixture as a working fluid in the power generating system has been considered as a proven technology for efficient recovery of low-grade heat sources. This paper presents a thermodynamic performance analysis for ammonia-water evaporator using low-grade heat source, based on the exergy and entransy which has been recently introduced as a physical quantity to describe the heat transfer ability of an object. In the analysis, effects of the ammonia mass fraction and source temperature of the binary mixture are investigated on the system performance such as heat transfer, effectiveness, exergy destruction, entransy dissipation, and entransy dissipation based thermal resistance. The results show that the ammonia mass concentration and the source temperature have significant effects on the thermodynamic system performance of the ammonia-water evaporator.
