An LNG bunkering system stores LNG in a horizontal IMO's C-Type tank insulated with perlite powder, and $10^{-2}$ Torr vacuum in the annular space between the double walls. Current storage tanks have high heat leakage, evaporating over 2.0% daily. A more efficiently insulated storage tank reducing the evaporation rate is required to develope. This research carried out thermal analysis on a new effective insulation method, i.e. double shield insulation system, that separates high super vacuum in the annular space between two tanks with a perlite vacuum in the back side of outer tank. This highly efficient insulation system obtained an evaporation rate of 0.16% per day under a $10^{-4}$ Torr vacuum. Even if the space loses its vacuum, the new insulation system showed a lower evaporation rate of 5.23% than the present perlite system of 4.9%.

Desalination effects of Capacitive deionization(CDI) process using activated carbon $TiO_2$ composite electrode. In this study, we made the activated carbon electrod and activated carbon $TiO_2$ composite electrode, which analysed at cyclic voltammetry and charge-discharge. The results measured for discharge capacitance in cyclic voltammetry were 125 F/g in activated carbon electrode and capacitance of activatd carbon composite electrode was increased about two time, 243 F/g. The $TiO_2$ content of activated carbon composite electrode was 10 wt.%. When it was added wtih TiO2, electric double layer adsorption content was increased, so it was increased 25% in ion removal ratio of activated carbon electrode.

Catalytic oxidation characteristics of benzene as a VOC was investigated in a fixed bed flow reactor using $Cu/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst. The parametric tests were conducted at the reaction temperature range of $200{\sim}500^{\circ}C$, benzene concentration of 400~650 ppm, gas flow rate of 50~100 cc/min, and space velocity range of $7,500{\sim}22,500hr^{-1}$. The property analyses by using the BET, SEM, TGA and the conversion of catalytic oxidation of benzene were examined. The experimental results showed that the conversion was increased with decreasing benzene concentration, gas flow rate and space velocity. Benzene oxidation reaction over $Cu/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst could be expressed as the first order homogeneous reaction of which the activation energy was 17.2 kcal/mol and frequency factor was $1.33{\times}10^6sec^{-1}$.

국내의 백상지 공정은 공정에 투입되는 청수의 양을 줄이면서 동시에 폐수 배출 양을 감 소시키기 위해 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 공정으로 유입되는 청수의 양과 처리된 폐수의 양을 줄이기 위한 방법으로 PDFCpolydisk filter)를 도입하여 백수를 여과하여 showertf sealing 에 재사용하고 있으며 공정수 재활용에 따른 유기 물질과 무기물질의 계 내로의 축적을 방 지하기 위한 효과적인 폐수 처리방법을 모색하고 있다. 일반적으로 청수를 백수로 대체할 경우 공정 백수 내에 TDSCtotal dissolved solid), T TSSCtotal suspended solid), CODCchemical oxygen demand), 전기 전도도와 칼숨 경 도 등이 증가되며 음이온성 저해 물질Canionic trash)이 증가하여 보류 및 지력증강용 첨가제의 효율 을 떨어뜨릴 뿐만 아니라 마모, 슬라엄, 펠트 막힘 등의 문제를 유발하게 된다고 알려져 있다. 청수를 백수로 대체함에 따라 생기는 이러한 문제를 해결하면서 효율적인 청수 절약 방안 을 세우기 위해서는 무엇보다도 문제를 유발하는 원인 물질의 축적 양을 예측하는 것이 중 요하다고 판단된다. 본 연구는 백상지 공정의 폐쇄화 수준이 높아짐에 따른 공정 백수 내의 유기물질의 축적 현상을 분석하는 것올 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 산화전분을 유기물질의 대표하는 물질로 설정하였다. 이는 백상파지와 함께 초지계 내로 유업되는 산화전분은 파지의 4%를 차지할 정도로 유입량이 많을 뿐만 아니라 음이온성을 띄고 있어서 지료에 홉착율이 낮고 양이온성 고분자의 효율을 저해하며 슬라임의 원인이 되기도 하는 물질이기 때문이다. 산화전분의 축적 현상을 분석하기 위하여 pilot 설비 상세 설계도를 참고하여 하루 생산량 이 16 T/D이고 백상파지만이 파지로 유입되는 백상지 생산 공정을 모델로하였으며, 산화전 분의 홉착과 용출 모델을 만들어 상용 시율레이터를 이용하여 시율레이션 프로그램을 작성 하였다. 시률레이션 프로그램에서는 장섬유 미세섬유, 충전제를 지료 구성 성분으로 설정하였고 O Orccotoma 등이 사용한 일과 보류도 모델을 응용하여 보류도 모델올 만들었다. 산화전분은 백상파지에 포함된 형태로만 초지계 내로 유입되며 백상파지가 해리되는 과정에서 완전히 백수에 용출되었다가 지료 구성 성분에 홉착되는 것으로 가정하였다. 지료 홉착된 산화전분 의 양은 용존 산화전분 총량에 비례하는 것으로 가정하였으며, 이 때 이 비례상수를 전분 홉착율이라 정의하였다. 시율레이션 결과, 공정 폐쇄화가 진행됨에 따라 백수 내의 산화 전분 농도는 증가하게 되 며, 폐쇄화 수준이 높아질수록 백수 내 전분 농도의 증가량은 더 높아졌다. 백수 내의 전분 농도의 증가량은 백상파지 첨가량이 증가할수록, 표면 사이징 양이 증가할수록 커졌다.

In this study, a device and pressure press process that is able to substitute autoclave process is developed. This process complements disadvantages of autoclave process which are long process-time and high production cost. The developed device provides air pressure as well as the vacuum which are greatest feature of autoclave process. The device is sealed using hydraulic pressure to keep the air pressure inside the mold. The transfer of the heat is designed to be direct. The heating and pressure charging time are decreased by reducing the interior space. Tooling cost is reduced dramatically compared to autoclave process. Spring-back phenomenon is measured and compared. The temperatures of several parts of the mold during molding are measured. The fiber volume fraction of the parts molded by autoclave process and by the developed process are compared.

This review focused carbon-free hydrogen productions from ammonia decomposition including inorganic membranes, catalysts and the presently studied reactor configurations. It also contains general information about hydrogen productions from hydrocarbons as hydrogen carriers. A Pd-based membrane (e.g. a porous ceramic or porous metallic support with a thin selective layer of Pd alloy) shows its efficiency to produce the high purity hydrogen. Ru-based catalysts consisted of Ru, support, and promoter are the efficient catalysts for ammonia decomposition. Packed bed membrane reactor (PBMR), Fluidized bed membrane reactor (FBMR), and membrane micro-reactor have been studied mainly for the optimization and the improvement of mass transfer limitation. Various types of reactors, which contain various combinations of hydrogen-selective membranes (i.e. Pd-based membranes) and catalysts (i.e. Ru-based catalysts) including catalytic membrane reactor, have been studied for carbon-free hydrogen production to achieve high ammonia conversion and high hydrogen flux and purity.

In view of the analysis of the phenomena and the prediction of the performance, mathematical modelling and simulation of a high temperature pilot reactor for water gas shift reaction (WGSR) has been carried out. Multiscale simulation incorporated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique, which has the capability to deal with the reactor shape, fluid and energy transport with extensive degree of accuracy, and process modeling technique, which, in turn is responsible for reaction kinetics and mass transport. This research employed multiscale simulation and the results were compared with those from process simulation. From multiscale simulation, the maximum conversion of was predicted approximately 0.85 and the maximum temperature at the reactor was calculated 720 K, resulting from the heat of reaction. Dynamic simulation was also performed for the time transient profile of temperature, conversion, etc. Considering the results, it is concluded that multiscale simulation is a safe and accurate technique to predict reactor behaviors, and consequently will be available for the design of commercial size chemical reactors as well as other commercial unit operations.

For a natural gas steam reforming, comparative studies of the performance in a conventional packed-bed reactor and a membrane reactor, a new conceptual reactor consisting of a reactor with series of hydrogen separation membranes, have been performed. Based on experimental kinetics reported by Xu and Froment, a process simulation model was developed with Aspen $HYSYS^{(R)}$, a commercial process simulator, and effects of various operating conditions like temperature, $H_2$ permeance, and Ar sweep gas flow rate on the performance in a membrane reactor were investigated in terms of reactant conversion and $H_2$ yield enhancement showing improved $H_2$ yield and methane conversion in a membrane reactor. In addition, a preliminary cost estimation focusing on natural gas consumption to supply heat required for the system was carried out and feasibility of possible cost savings in a membrane reactor was assessed with a cost saving of 10.94% in a membrane reactor.

This paper studied the possibility of manufacturing bulk graphite using coal tar, a precursor of coal tar pitch, as a binder and impregnant. Carbonization was conducted after mixing and molding with natural graphite as a filler and coal tar as a binder. Impregnation-recarbonization was performed five times after carbonization. Coal tar used as impregnant. Measuring density, porosity, compressive strength, and anisotropy ratio was conducted. The maximum density of bulk graphite specimen was 1.76 g/㎤ and the minimum porosity was 15.6% which could be controlled by process control. The highest compressive strength was 20.3 MPa. Then the maximum anisotropic ratio of bulk was shown 0.34 through XRD analysis. Therefore, it was confirmed that it was possible to manufacture artificial graphite in a bulk form by using coal tar as a binder and an impregnant.
