Catalytic combustion of benzene over various metal cation-exchanged zeolites has been investigated. Y(4.8)-type zeolite showed the highest activity among the used zeolites and Cu/Y(4.8) catalyst also showed the highest activity among metal cation/ Y(4.8) zeolites. The catalytic activity increased according to the amount of adsorbed oxygen acquired from O₂ TPD results. The catalytic activity also increased with an increase of Cu cation concentration on Cu/Y(4.8) catalysts. The conversion of benzene on the combustion reaction depended on not benzene concentration but the oxygen concentration. In addition, the introduction of water into reactants decreased the catalytic activity.

The physico-chemical characteristics and the combustion activities of a waste automotive catalyst were carried out in this study. The physico-chemical characteristics of waste automotive catalyst was examined by EA(Elemental analysis), ICP-AES (Inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrophotometer), and XRD(X-ray diffraction) analysis. Carbon deposit amount was higher in front brick than rear brick of catalyst, and increased with mileage. The content of Pt. Pd and Rh in waste automotive catalyst was different from the car manufacturing company. The combustion activities of waste automotive catalyst were investigated for acetaldehyde as a model VOC in a fixed bed reactor at atmospheric pressure. The catalytic activity of rear brick for acetaldehyde combustion was better than front brick of waste automotive catalyst. The catalytic activity of waste automotive catalyst for acetaldehyde combustion decreased with mileage. The linear relationship between catalytic activity and mileage was negative and has a very excellent correlation. Finally, the waste automotive catalyst has a good catalytic activity for acetaldehyde combustion. and can be used to control of small emission source.

Off-gases emitted from the anode of a molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) at high temperatures for power generation are used as fuel in catalytic combustion. The heat generated in the catalytic combustor is utilized as the heat for the endothermic reaction required for steam reforming. Among the various operational conditions of the integrated reactor, we varied the inlet gas compositions of the catalytic combustor according to fuel utilization in the MCFC and the ratio of steam to carbon in the reformer. Subsequently, the thermal behaviors and reaction characteristics of the integrated reactor were investigated experimentally. The fundamental data from this experimental study will be useful for the design and fabrication of a more practical integrated reactor in the future.

우드칩을 포함하는 화석연료대비 발열량이 낮은 바이오매스를 가스화를 통하여 활용하는 경우 타르 및 수트를 포함하는 저열량의 합성가스가 생성된다. 이러한 합성가스를 엔진을 통한 발전, 스팀, 수소 및 화학제품 생산으로 활용하기 위해서는 고효율의 타르 정제 및 제거가 필수적이다. 특히 착화가 어렵고 연소온도 및 연소율이 낮으며, 화염구간이 좁은 저열량의 합성가스를 이용하여 스팀을 생산하기 위해서는 많은 문제점으로 인하여 기술 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 하향류식 가스화기를 이용하여 우드칩을 연료로 합성가스를 제조하였으며, 합성가스에 포함되어 있는 타르 및 수트와 같은 미반응 물질을 제거할 수 있는 집진, 세정장치를 설계 및 제작하였다. 특히 고효율 타르의 제거를 위하여 두 종류의 산화촉매를 이용한 합성가스 내 타르의 제거 연구를 수행하였다. Ru 촉매를 이용하는 경우 합성가스 내 타르의 농도를 100ppb 정도까지 저감이 가능하였다. 정제된 합성가스는 유류 혼소 버너를 통하여 보일러 연소실에서 혼합연소되어 30만kcal/h의 열을 공급함으로써 스팀을 생산 하였으며, 생성된 스팀은 블록 건조 시설에서 이용하였다.

A catalytic conversion of carbon monoxide has been studied in a coal combustion system. Three different catalysts were prepared by impregnating 0.2% platinum on three different types of supports, ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ pellets, ceramic foam and honeycomb. These catalysts have shown an excellent initial activities in the coal combustion system, but they were rapidly deactivated in repeated uses. Among these catalysts ceramic foam has shown to be better than others both in activities and durabilities. The main cause of deactivation seems to be ascribed to poisoning by zinc metal and sulfur compounds and to decrease in platinum surface area by sintering.

The fiber mat catalytic burner that uses infrared radiative heat obtained by flameless catalytic combustion was manufactured and tested to investigate its combustion characteristics. About 9 to 17% of combustion heat was released by sensible heat during the premixed catalytic combustion depend on combustion condition. To find out radiation intensity with distance between catalytic burner and sample, the equation that calculate the receiving surface of radiative energy under the fiber mat catalytic burner was driven. This equation was well correlated with the drying rate of melamine. The drying experiments were carried out to the melamine, wood chip and agricultural pallet by using the fiber mat catalytic burner and the energy efficiency was calculated from drying rate of them. The energy efficiency of the fiber mat catalytic burner reaches to 79% in maximum for drying of the wood chip.

VOCs 처리 기술로서 촉매연소의 경우 저온에서 처리가 가능하여 처리비용 절감 등의 효과를 고려할 때 가장 경제적인 방법으로 평가되고 있다. 촉매연소를 이용한 VOCs 처리는 고가의 귀금속(Pt, Pd 등)을 담지한 담체(carbon black, SiO$_2$, $Al_2$O$_3$, TiO$_2$ 등)형 촉매가 사용되고 있다(Guisnet, et al, 1999). (중략)

$NO_x$ 제어 기술로는 크게 연소 전 탈질, 연소 개선 및 연소 후 탈질 기술로 구분할 수 있으며, 연소 후 탈질 기술에 속하는 SCR은 촉매를 사용하여 $NO_x$를 환원하는 대표적인 배연탈질기술이다. SCR의 $NO_x$ 저감 성능은 촉매 요인(촉매 구성물질, 형태, 공간속도 등)과 배가스의 온도, 유속 분포, 공정 운전 조건 등의 다양한 인자에 의해 좌우되는데 특히, 촉매층으로 유입되는 유동의 균일도는 가장 중요한 요소가 된다. 유동이 균일하지 않을 경우 촉매 전단에 편류가 발생하게 될 것이며 일정 촉매만 사용하게 되어 촉매 사용주기 감소 및 SCR 성능 저하를 초래할 수 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 수치 해석 기법을 이용하여 설계 초기의 SCR 반응기 내 유동 특성을 모사하여 기류 균일도 여부를 확인하고, SCR 내 유동 균일도를 최적화시키기 위한 설계를 목적으로 설치하는 가이드 베인과 배플, 다공판이 반응기 내부 유동 및 촉매층의 기류 균일도에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과, 유동 개선을 위해 인입 덕트 곡관부에 가이드 베인을 설치하여 처리가스를 적절하게 배분시키고, 반응기 상단에 3단 배플을 설치한 결과 반응기 내부 유동의 편류 개선에 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 다공판을 예비 촉매층 하단부 위치에 추가로 설치함에 따라 유동을 한번 더 완충시킬 수 있어 기류 균일도가 매우 양호해짐을 알 수 있었다.
