Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of 3,3-bis(methylthio)-2-propen-1-phenyl-1-one derivatives were studied kinetically in concentrated aqueous hydroperchloric acid(-Ho < 2.23) at $30^{\circ}C.$ The substituent effect, analysis of hydrolysis product, hydration $parameter({\omega} & {\phi}$) from the Bunnett equation and the Bunnett-Olsen equation on the rate indicate that the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the substrates below 3.8 M hydroperchloric acid media occurs through A-1 type reaction($3.3 >{\omega},\;0.58 >{\phi} & {\rho}< 0$) mechanism and above 3.8 M hydroperchloric acid, the reaction proceeds A-2 type reaction($0 <(\omega)$, $0 <{\phi} & (\rho)> 0$) mechanism.

$TiO_2$ nanopowder was successfully prepared using a titanium tetra-isopropoxide. Subsequently, the effect of pH on the characteristics of the prepared $TiO_2$ nanopowder was evaluated depending on the amounts of the catalysts such as HCI and NH40H. The morphology and phase transformation of $TiO_2$ powder prepared by hydrolysis of titanium tetraisopropoxide were strongly influenced by the presence of the catalysts. In the case of using $NH_4$OH, the morphology of the $TiO_2$ powder exhibited powder form. For the HCI catalyst, it showed bulk or granule form. The phase transformations of amorphous $Ti(OH)_4$ to anatase $TiO_2$ and the anatase to rutile was significantly influenced by the kind and amount of the catalysts.

A 50 Newton monopropellant thruster being developed for attitude control in a variety of aerospace application systems is described in this paper. A scaled down thruster with platinum on aluminum oxide in the reaction chamber was tested to determine the catalyst capacity. A scaled up thruster, was designed and fabricated using data obtained on small scale device, was evaluated by decomposition efficiency based on temperature, efficiency of characteristic velocity, and measurement of thrust. The performance of a scaled up thruster was 42 Newton in thrust, 98 % in efficiency of characteristic velocity, and 123 sec in specific impulse at sea level.

Combined removal of n-heptane and carbon monoxide (CO) using a plasma-catalytic process was investigated. The performance of the plasma-catalytic process was compared with that of the catalyst-alone process to characterize the decomposition of n-heptane and CO with the operation parameters such as the type of catalyst, reaction temperature, and discharge power. From several sets of experiments, it was found that the decomposition efficiency of n-heptane mainly depended on the specific input energy rather than the reactor temperature, whereas the oxidation of CO on both the energy density and the reaction temperature. The results conducted over several metal oxide catalysts exhibited that the decomposition efficiency of n-heptane was in the order: $Pd/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > $Ru/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3{\approx}Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. Especially, $Pd/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst did hardly generate CO as a byproduct during the decomposition of n-heptane under an appropriate condition, revealing $CO_2$ selectivity of nearly 100%. The CO oxidation efficiency was largely affected by the type of catalyst ($Pd/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > $Ru/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$). At temperatures below $180^{\circ}C$, the plasma-catalytic process was more effective in the oxidation of CO, while above $180^{\circ}C$, the catalytic process resulted in slightly higher CO oxidation efficiency.

Removal characteristics of methyl orange and their dependence on operating parameters in a catalytic ozonation were investigated through a series of batch experiments. Activated carbon enhanced the self-decomposition of ozone, generating $OH{\cdot}$, thus promoting methyl orange degradation. As the carbon dose increases, the pseudo-first order rate constants of methyl orange degradation increased, resulting in the fast removal of methyl orange. The increase of gaseous ozone concentration enhanced the mass transfer to the aqueous solution, therefore, promoted the methyl orange removal. The methyl orange degradation was not significantly affected by the change of pH in the range of 5~12, and TOC removal was negligibly affected by the variation of pH over 7. The results indicate that the catalytic ozonation can be considered as an effective dye treatment technology.

The rate of hydrolysis of insecticide, O,O-diethyl-O-(1-phenyl-3-trifluoromethylpyrazol-5-yl)phosphorothioate (Flupyrazofos) have been investigated in 25% (v/v) aqueous dioxane (${\mu}=0.1M$) at $45^{\circ}C$. The hydrolysis mechanism of flupyrazofos proceeds through the specific acid ($A_{AC}2$) catalysis below pH 4.0, specific base ($B_{AC}2$) catalysis above pH 11.0 and general acid & base ($B_{AC}2$) catalysis between pH 5.0 and pH 10.0 via trigonal-bipyramidal ($d^2sp^3$) intermediate as evidence by solvent effect ($|m|{\ll}|{\ell}|$), rate equation ($kt=ko+k_H+ [H_3O^+]+k_{OH}[OH^-]$) and product analysis. The half-life ($T\frac{1}{2}$) of hydrolytic degradation in neutral media at $45^{\circ}C$ was ca. 3 months.

The catalysts for decomposition reaction of acetaldehyde were investigated. The catalysts were prepared with transition metal Ni, Mo, Al on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ support by impregnation method. Physio-chemical properties of catalysts were characterized by SEM-EDS, XRD, XPS, BET and TPR techniques. The conversion efficiency of catalysts for acetaldehyde was measured in the temperature range of $150{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ by GC through the micro reactor system. The 8 wt% $Ni/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ was found to be the most active catalyst of mono-metal catalysts tested, and the 1-3 wt% $Ni-Al/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ showed higher conversion efficiency than other bimetallic catalysts.

효소는 반응을 효율적으로 촉진시킬 뿐만 아니라 기질 및 입체특이성을 갖고 있어 광학활성 화합물을 합성하는데 매우 유용한 촉매이다. 효소 반응은 일반적으로 수용액에서 진해오디지만, 유기 용매를 포함하는 용액에서도 가능하다. 대부분의 유기 화학 반응이 유기 용매에서 진행된다는 점을 생각할 때, 유기 용매에서 효소 반응을 이용한 유기합성이 갈수록 중요해지고 있다. 본 글에서는 유기 용매에서 사용가능한 대표적인 효소인 지질 가수분해 효소(lipase)를 이용한 유기합성에 대해서 간략히 기술하고자 한다.

Hydrogenolysis of glycerol to propylene glycol was performed over binary and ternary metal oxide catalysts. The conversion of glycerol and selectivity to propylene glycol were increased on Cu/Zn and Cu/Cr mixed oxides compared to pure CuO and ZnO oxides. The addition of alumina into Cu/Zn mixed oxide very highly increased the conversion of glycerol and selectivity to propylene glycol. The conversion of glycerol was increased with increasing the reaction temperature but the selectivity to propylene glycol was shown to have maximum value at $200^{\circ}C$ and then decreased at $250^{\circ}C$. The conversion of glycerol and selectivity to propylene glycol were decreased with increasing the glycerol concentration.
