An experimental investigation of a microthruster that uses hydrogen peroxide as a monopropellant is described. The study comprises of preparation method of silver as a catalyst and performance evaluation of a mesoscale reactor. Reduction of silver in $H_2\;at\;500^{\circ}C$ resulted in the best reactivity of all the treatment method tested. A mesoscale reactor was built to find the optimum configuration for full decomposition of propellant. The catalyst bed was made of a glass wafer substrate sputtered with silver and had a length of 20 mm. We measured the conversion rate with varying feed rate of $H_2O_2$ and preheating temperature. With the feed rate of $H_2O_2$, the space time within the reactor varies as well. For the bed length of 20 mm, space time more than 480 s was required for full conversion.

10 wt% Mn supported on various commercial $TiO_2$ catalysts were prepared by wet-impregnation method for the low temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with $NH_3$. A combination of various physico-chemical techniques such as BET, XRD, XPS and TPR were used to characterize these catalysts. MnOx surface densities on MnOx/$TiO_2$ catalyst were related to surface area. As MnOx surface density lowered with high dispersion, the SCR activity for low temperature was increased and the reduction temperature ($MnO_2$ ${\rightarrow}$ $Mn_2O_3$) of surface MnOx was lower. For a high SCR, MnOx could be supported on a high surface area of $TiO_2$ and should be existed a high dispersion of non-crystalline species.

Various $Cu/SiO_2$ catalysts with copper concentration ranging from 0 to 50wt% were prepared by kneading method for the steam reforming of methanol. These catalysts were calcined at temperatures in the range of $400^{\circ}C{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ and then reduced in a $H_2$ atmosphere in the range of $150^{\circ}C{\sim}350^{\circ}C$. Steam reforming of methanol was carried out at atmospheric pressure over a temperature range of $200^{\circ}C{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, steam/methanol molar ratio of 0.4~1.6 and W/F of 3~25 g.-cat.hr./mol. Characterization of the catalysts was studied using IR, BET and XRD. Using copper nitrate as a precursor for catalysts, pH in the preparation of catalysts had a great effect on the catalytic activity, but pH in the preparation of catalysts, calcination temperature, and reducing temperature in $H_2$ atmosphere had no effect on the product distribution. Optimum copper concentration, calcination temperature and reducing temperature were 40wt%, $700^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$, respective)y. Reaction temperature for maximum $H_2$ production was $275^{\circ}C$, and the formation of methane which lowered quantity and quality of $H_2$ would be inhibited below $275^{\circ}C$. $Cu^{\circ}-Cu_2O$ might be active species in $Cu/SiO_2$ catalyst.

In this study, an experiment and a reaction characteristic study were conducted to enhance the reaction activity of V₂O₅/WO₃/TiO₂ at 300 ℃ or less by adding selenium to the support, in a selective catalytic reduction method using ammonia as a reducing agent to remove nitrogen oxides. Se-TiO₂ and TiO₂ were synthesized using the sol-gel method, and used as a support when preparing V₂O₅/WO₃/TiO₂ and V₂O₅/WO₃/Se-TiO₂ catalysts. The reaction activity of our catalyst was compared with that of a commercial catalyst. The denitration efficiency of the catalyst using TiO₂ prepared by the sol-gel method was lower than that of the catalyst prepared using commercial TiO₂, but was improved by the addition of selenium. Thus, the effect of selenium addition on the catalyst structure was analyzed using BET, XRD, Raman, H₂-TPR, and FT-IR measurements and the effect of the increase in specific surface area by selenium addition and the formation of monomer and complex vanadium species on reaction characteristics were confirmed.

$Co_3O_4$ catalysts for $N_2O$ decomposition were prepared by co-precipitation method. Ce and Zr were added during the preparation of the catalyst as promoter with the molar ratio (Ce or Zr) / Co = 0.05. Also, 1 wt% $K_2CO_3$ was doped to the prepared catalyst with impregnation method to investigate the effect of K on the catalyst performance. The prepared catalysts were characterized with SEM, BET, XRD, XPS and $H_2-TPR$. The $Co_3O_4$ catalyst exhibited a spinel crystal phase, and the addition of the promoter increased the specific surface area and reduced the particle and crystal size. It was confirmed that the doping of K improves the catalytic activity by increasing the concentration of $Co^{2+}$ in the catalyst which is an active site for catalytic reaction. The catalytic activity tests were carried out at a GHSV of $45,000h^{-1}$ and a temperature range of $250{\sim}375^{\circ}C$. The K-impregnated $Co_3O_4$ catalyst showed much higher activity than $Co_3O_4$ catalysts with promoter only. It is found that the K-impregnation increased the concentration of $Co^{2+}$ more than the added of promoter did, and lowered the reduction temperature to a great extent.

최근 들어 WGS 반응은 Pt과 같은 귀금속 촉매를 다양한 담체에 담지하여 낮은 온도에서 높은 활성을 지닌 촉매를 제조하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. WGS 반응에서 귀금속 촉매가 높은 활성을 가지기 위해서 높은 산소저장능력(Oxygen Storage Capacity)과 산화환원능력(Redox)을 지닌 담체 개발이 필요하다. Ce-$ZrO_2$ 담체는 구조적으로 안정하며 높은 산소저장능을 가지고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. Ce-$ZrO_2$ 구조는 Ce/Zr 비에 따라 다양한 변화가 생긴다. Ce/Zr 비가 6/4, 8/2인 경우 입방구조(Cubic)를 가지며 2/8인 경우 정방입계(Tetragonal)구조를 가진다. 이것은 담체 특성의 변화를 의미한다. 따라서, WGS 반응용 최적 담체를 선정하기 위해 Ce/Zr 비를 제조변수로 하여 담체특성을 분석하였다. 제조된 모든 담체는 공침법(Co-precipitation)을 사용하여 제조하였으며 $500^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 소성하였다. 담체 특성분석은 BET, XRD를 이용하였다. 추가적으로 제조변수를 다양화하여 담체 제조를 마쳤으며 특성분석이 진행 중이다. 분석 결과 $Ce_{0.2}Zr_{0.8}O_2$ 담체가 가장 넓은 표면적을 가지고 있으며 Ce/Zr 비가 높아질수록 표면적이 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. Ce-$ZrO_2$ 담체의 나노결정크기는 Ce/Zr 비가 작아질수록 결정크기가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며 $Ce_{0.2}Zr_{0.8}O_2$가 Ce-$ZrO_2$ 담체 중에서 가장 작은 결정크기를 나타내어 3nm 이하의 나노-담체가 제조되었음을 확인하였다.

In order to remove the NO contained in exhaust gas by the non-selective catalyst reduction method, the catalysts were prepared by varing the loading amount of Ag and V into ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. The conversion of $NO_x$ using the prepared catalysts was studied by varying the temperatures, $O_2$ concentrations and $SO_2$ concentrations using. The influence of the catalyst structure on $NO_x$ conversion was studied through the analysis of the physical properties of the prepared catalysts. In the case of $AgV/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst, the $NO_x$ conversion was lower than that of $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at higher temperatures but higher than that of $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at lower temperatures. Even though $SO_2$ was contained in the reaction gas, the $NO_x$ conversion did not decrease. Based on the analysis including XRD, XPS, TPR, and UV-Vis DRS before and after the experiments, the experimental results were examined. The results indicated that, $NO_x$ conversion decreased at higher temperatures since Ag oxide could not be maintained well due to the addition of V, whereas it increased at temperatures lower than $300^{\circ}C$ due to the catalytic action of V.
