고연소속도 HTPB/AP 추진제를 얻기 위하여 현재 각광받고 있는 3종의 철화합물 연소촉매를 선정하여 연소속도 증진효과와 기계적 특성, 공정성 및 노화특성에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 사용한 철 화합물은 HTPB 프리폴리머에 silicone-ferrocene이 그라프트된 $BUTACENE^$\circledR$$ 과 결합제 역할을 하는 acylaziridinyl ferrocene(AAF), 그리고 입자크기가 30nm인 $NANOCAT^$\circledR$$ superfine iron oxide(SFIO)이었다. 이들 철 화합물을 추진제에 적용한 결과 공정성의 경우 $BUTACENE^$\circledR$$ 은 혼합점도가 높았으나 pot life의 감소는 없었으며 AAF와 SFIO는 혼합점도는 비교적 낮은 반면 pot life가 현저히 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 추진제의 노화거동은 연소촉매를 사용하지 않았을 때보다 저하되었으나 metal deactivating 산화방지제인 $PRO-TECH^$\circledR$$ 과 함께 사용할 경우 공정성 및 노화특성 모두 바람직한 수준으로 향상되었다. 기계적 특성은 SFIO를 제외하고는 저하되었으며 $BUTACENE^$\circledR$$ 은 프리폴리머로서, AAF는 결합제로서의 기능이 다소 미흡하였다. 한편 연소촉매의 함량에 따른 촉매효과는 AAF>SFIO>$BUTACENE^$\circledR$$ 순이었고 철 함량 측면에서는 AAF>$BUTACENE^$\circledR$$ >SFIO 순이었다.

VOCs 처리기술로는 촉매연소, 열적처리, 생물학적처리법 등이 있으며, 촉매연소방법의 경우 저온에서 처리가 가능하여 처리비용 절감 등의 효과를 고려할 때 가장 경제적인 방법으로 평가되고 있다(Guisnet, et al., 1999). VOCs 처리에는 대부분 고가의 귀금속촉매를 많이 사용하므로, 경제적 부담을 줄이기 위하여 귀금속을 담체(SiO$_2$, A1$_2$O$_3$, TiO$_2$등)에 담지시켜 활용하거나, 귀금속촉매를 대체하기 위한 Mn, Co, Cu 등의 금속 산화물 촉매에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. (중략)

This study is about the changes in mechanical and combustion properties after the production of the combustion catalysts FeOOH and Fe₂O₃ having the same manufacturing method and application to the solid propellant. In order to make the FeOOH and Fe₂O₃ having the same manufacturing method, FeOOH was calcined at 200, 300, 400, 500℃ for 2 h, and the XRD results were confirmed. In addition, after applying the prepared catalyst to a solid propellant, it exhibited change in mechanical and combustion properties. As result of XRD, FeOOH was confirmed to change the crystal phase from Geothtie to Hematite between 200 and 300℃. The stress of the propellant hardly changed as the calcination temperature of the combustion catalyst incredsed, but the elongation increased when catalyst was calcined. the maximum value at 300℃. The burning rate confirmed that FeOOH without calcination was about 3~5% faster than other catalysts.

Catalytic combustion is the environmental-friendly technology, which has been applied to a variety of areas for industrial and domestic use in recent years. Accordingly, this study performed the development of the catalytic manufacturing technology for the high temperature and of the catalytic combustor in priority, which were aimed to be aimed to a commercialized condensing boiler. Palladium(Pd) of a noble meta] was used as a catalyst for the high temperature and supported on $alumina(Al_{2}O_{3})\;and\;zirconia(ZrO_2)$ in constant weight ratio. Activity of Pd catalysts is compared and analysed in the catalytic combustion of natural gas. The ratio of $Pd/Al_{2}O_{3}\;=\;4$ was found to be better than any other weight ratios in activity and durability. The performance examination of catalysts and of combustion through the plate-type combustor made it possible to be developed the cylindrical-type combustor which has increased combustion area. Catalytic combustion condensing boiler of 25,000 kcal/hr class was also developed, which had the optimum combustion condition at the no221e of 5.95mm and the orifice of 21mm. This condition was determined through the performance experiments of catalytic combustion condensing boiler to which the cylindrical-type catalytic combustor was applied.

In the MCFC power generation system, the combustor supplies a high temperature mixture of gases to the cathode and heat to the reformer by using the off-gas from the anode; the off-gas includes high concentrations of $H_2O$ and $CO_2$. Since a combustor needs to be operated in a very lean condition and avoid local heating, a catalytic combustor is usually adopted. Catalytic combustion is also generally accepted as one of the environmentally preferred alternatives for generation of heat and power from fossil fuels because of its complete combustion and low emissions of pollutants such as CO, UHC, and $NO_x$. In this study, experiments were conducted on catalytic combustion behavior in the presence of Pd-based catalysts for the BOP (Balance Of Plant) of 5 kW MCFC (Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell) power generation systems. Extensive investigations were carried out on the catalyst performance with the gaseous $CH_4$ fuel by changing such various parameters as $H_2$ addition, inlet temperature, excess air ratio, space velocity, catalyst type, and start-up schedule of the pilot system adopted in the BOP.

Interest in environmental pollution is increasing all over the world, and technology development to solve it is actively carried out. In areas where heat is used, especially, combustion is causing countless pollutants in the air environment. Combustion catalyst is a technology that reduces NOx and CO by lowering combustion temperature and enabling complete combustion. Traditional combustion catalysts are expensive and complex in the synthesis process using precious metal catalyst. In this study, hexaaluminate, a high-temperature combustion catalyst, was manufactured using urea, and the properties were investigated according to the synthesis time. The combustion performance and characteristics were evaluated using this catalyst. As the temperature increased, the changing methane conversion rate was shown in two patterns. The conversion rates for 1 hour, 9 hours, and 12 hours were similar, while the conversion rates for 3 hours and 6 hours showed similar patterns. Methane combustion performance increased rapidly as the synthesis time increased from 6 hours to 9 hours, whereas the temperature at T50 was approximately 745 ℃. The performance of the synthesized combustion catalyst for 9 hours was optimum as the NOx emission of this combustion catalyst was not present and the maximum emission of CO was 72 ppm.

Catalytic combustion is generally accepted as one of the environmentally preferred alternatives for heat and power from fossil fuels, as it has the advantage of stable combustion under very lean conditions with such low emissions as UHC, CO, and NOx. In this work, therefore, comparative numerical studies on the catalytic combustion behaviors over Pd-based catalysts have been conducted with the gaseous $CH_4$, $C_2H_6$, and $C_3H_8$. In the following, after introducing the governing equations with 1D channel and Langmuir-Hinshelwood models, numerical investigations on the catalyst performance are conducted by changing such various parameters as inlet temperature, excess air ratio, and space velocity. The numerical results show that outlet temperature and conversion of $C_3H_8$ are highest among others because of its chemical structure and reactivity.

catalytic combustion is accomplished by the chemical reaction between fuel and oxidizer at the catalyst surface, different from conventional combustion. Therefore, it is important that the fuel and air stream are well mixed and supplied uniformly prior to the combustion region. If the flow is maldistributed, a hot spot may occur that can lead to subsequent catalyst and substrate damage. Therefore, in order to enhance the mixing and flow uniformity, in this study, the perforated plate is used. A numerical simulation is performed to investigate the variation of flow characteristics by changing various parameters. Under each condition, the uniformity of the flow stream at the entrance of the catalyst section is evaluated and compared. The results show that the uniformity can be effectively improved for most of the case by using the well-designed perforated plates.
