The effect of Ba addition on the thermal stabilization of $\gamma$-$Al_2O_3$ powders were studied. Ba additive was introduced into $\gamma$-$Al_2O_3$ powders by wet impregnation of $Ba(No_3)_3$.$6H_2O$. Ba additive was proved to be effective on the thermal stabilization of $\gamma$-$Al_2O_3$ powders by suppression of sintering. The optimum content of Ba was determined by 5 mol%, through the calcinations temperature range. It is suggested that the main reason of thermal stabilizaton is the substitution effect of large $Ba^{2+}$ ions into the $\Al^{3+}$ sites, which suppressed the surface diffusion of $\Al^{3+}$ ions.

Emissoin of heavy duty vehicle have much positioned in air pollution although its limited number of vehicles. CNG vehicles are coming to the fore as one of the solution of diesel vehicles. CNG vehicles exhaust smaller emission than diesel vehicles on PM and NOx. In this study, aftertreatment technologies are introduced on vehicles which use CNG and hydrogenmixed fuel. Withmixing hydrogen with CNG, combustion efficiency is enhanced, and harmful emission might be decreased, but methane that is main component of CNG brings green house effect. In order to remove methane and NOx in exhaust gas of CNG engine, methane oxidation catalyst and SCR technologies were respectively analyzed.

In this study, ammonia consumption by gas turbine output was adjusted to find out the amount of ammonia consumption that complies with the enhanced Air Quality Preservation Act and internal regulation emission standards in SCR type DeNOx System for a 580 MW Sejong Combined Cycle Power Plant. For measurements, the gas turbine output was varied to 50, 99, 149, 198 MW and ammonia consumption was adjusted with the combustion gas and ammonia supply conditions fixed at each stage. When the emission limit were change from 10 ppm to 8 ppm, ammonia consumption was increased from 78, 93, 105, 133 kg/h to 89, 113, 132, 176 kg/h. The increase rate of ammonia consumption was 14, 22, 26, 32% per output category compared to the 10 ppm emission limit, which was shown to increase as output increased.

In this study, we investigated the cause of the decrease in activities of $VO_x/TiO_2$ SCR catalyst used for the burner reactor at a scale of $150000Nm^3/hr$ using X-ray diffraction (XRD), brunauer-emmett-teller (BET), atomic emission spectroscopy inductively coupled plasma (AES ICP), $H_2$ temperature programmed reduction ($H_2$-TPR), and $NH_3$ temperature programmed desorption ($NH_3$-TPD) analysis. Since the crystallization of the $VO_x$ and phase transition of $TiO_2$ did not occur, it was concluded that the catalyst was not deactivated by the thermal effect. In addition, from the elemental analysis showing that a large quantity of calcium was detected but not sulfur, the deactivation process of the $VO_x/TiO_2$ SCR catalyst was mainly caused by Ca but not by $SO_2$. The calcium was also found to decrease the catalytic activity by means of reducing $NH_3$ adsorption.

In the cement industry, NOx emission is recognized as an important problem, and NOx reduction technologies can be divided into process change, staged combustion, low NOx burner, selective non-catalytic reduction and selective catalytic reduction method. The operation of the selective non-catalytic reduction method, which is the most used in the cement industry, is expected to make it difficult to meet the emission standards to be strengthened in the future, and it is necessary to improve equipment such as SCR and secure technologies. Recently, we are developing technologies for simultaneous application of SNCR and SCR, dust and denitrification filter technology, and removal technology using NO oxidation.

A ground hot-firing test (HFT) was conducted to take out the optimal design configurations for the thrust chamber of 70 N-class liquid rocket engine under development. Monopropellant grade (purity: ${\geq}98.5%$) hydrazine was adopted as a propellant for the HFT, and three kinds of thrust chambers having characteristic lengths ($L^*$) of 2.79, 2.95, and 3.13 m were selected for their performance evaluation. It is revealed through the test and evaluation that the increase of the $L^*$ leads to a performance degradation in the test condition specified, and pulse response performance of the development model shows superior characteristics to commercialized hydrazine thrusters.

Generally, there are three ways to remove VOCs from the small painting booth; adsorption, burn and oxidation catalyst. RTO and RCO are high efficiency methods for removing VOCs. But they require large installation areas, which are not suitable for the small painting booth. And we need a new removing method because it is difficult to predict the A/C changing time and the recycle time. To solve these problems, we have developed the Arc plasma system which is simple and enable consecutive-use. It removes VOCs effectively and eco-friendly. In this study we have investigated the enrichment material and VOCs removal efficiency.

Catalytic combustion type gas sensor was fabricated by using ${\gamma}-Al_{2}O_{3}$, Pd catalyst and some binders for metane and propane detection. Using the gas sensor, digital gas meter was manufactured and tested for sensing performance. The fabricated sensor had power consumption of 700mW with applied voltage of dc 2V and the output voltage of the sensor was about 700mV for propane of 1,000ppm and 500mV for methane of 1,000ppm. In 10 cycle injection of the gases of 2,400ppm, The digital meter showed good sensitivity, linearity, and reproductivity with precision of ${\pm}25ppm({\pm}1%)$.

In this work, a new type of DSCs based on nanoporous FTO structure is being developed for research aimed at low-cost high-efficiency solar cell application. The nanoporous FTO materials have been prepared through the sol-gel combustion method followed by thermal treatment at $450{\sim}850[^{\circ}C]$. The properties of the nanoporous FTO materials were investigated by IR spectra, BET and TEM analyses, and the photovoltaic performance of the prepared DSCs were examined. It can be seen from the result that the nanoporous FTO exhibited good transparent conductive properties, well suited for DSCs application.

A steam reformer is a chemical reactor to produce high purity hydrogen from fossil fuel. In the steam reformer, since endothermic steam reforming is heated by exothermic combustion of fossil fuel, the heat transfer between two reaction zones dominates conversion of fossil fuel to hydrogen. Steam Reforming is complex chemical reaction, mass and heat transfer due to the exothermic methane/air combustion reaction and the endothermic steam reforming reaction. Typically, a steam reformer employs burner to supply appropriate heat for endothermic steam reforming reaction which reduces system efficiency. In this study, the heat of steam reforming reaction is provided by anode-off gas combustion of stationary fuel cell. This paper presents a optimization of heat transfer effect and average temperature of cross-section using two-dimensional models of a coaxial cylindrical reactor, and analysis three-dimensional models of a coaxial cylindrical steam reformer with chemical reaction. Numerical analysis needs to dominant chemical reaction that are assumed as a Steam Reforming (SR) reaction, a Water-Gas Shift (WGS) reaction, and a Direct Steam Reforming(DSR) reaction. The major parameters of analysis are temperature, fuel conversion and heat flux in the coaxial reactor.
