Catalytic combustion of toluene was investigated on the Cu-Mn oxide catalysts prepared by the impregnation(Imp) and the deposition-precipitation(DP) methods. The mixing of copper and manganese has been found to enhance the activity of catalysts. It is then found that catalytic efficiency of the Cu-Mn oxide catalyst prepared by the DP method on combustion of toluene is much higher than that of the Cu-Mn oxide catalyst prepared by Imp method with the same chemical composition. The catalyst prepared by the deposition-precipitation method observed no change of toluene conversion at time on stream during 10 days and at the addition of water vapor. On the basis of catalyst characterization data, it has been suggested that the catalysts prepared by the DP method showed uniform distribution and smaller particle size on the surface of catalyst and then enhanced reduction capability of catalysts. Therefore, we think that the DP method leads on progressive capacity of catalyst and promotes stability of catalyst. It was also presumed that catalytic conversion of toluene on the Cu-Mn oxide catalyst depends on redox reaction and $Cu_{1.5}Mn_{1.5}O_4$ spinel phase acts as the major active sites of catalyst.

본연구에서는 GTL(gas to liquids)공정의 합성가스 생산을 위해 수증기-이산화탄소 복합개질반응(Combined Steam and Carbon dioxide Reforming of Methane, CSCRM)을 수행하였다. CSCRM은 수증기와 이산화탄소의 공급비 조절을 통해 $H_2$/CO비를 2로 맞추기 용이한 장점을 지니고 있어 다른 단일 개질 반응과 달리 합성가스 생산 시 $H_2$/CO 비율을 조절하기 위한 부가적인 공정이 필요하지 않아 경제적인 공정이다. 일반적으로 사용되는 Ni개질촉매는 가격대비 우수한 성능을 보이지만 S/C비가 낮은 CSCRM의 경우 촉매표면의 탄소침적에 의한 비활성화가 야기되는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산소저장능력과 산소전달능력이 우수한 $CeO_2$를 조촉매로 첨가하여 표면에 형성된 코크 제거가 용이하도록 하였다. Ni-Ce/$MgAl_2O_4$촉매는 동시함침법(co-impregnation)으로 제조하였으며, Ni의 함량을 10wt%로 고정한 상태에서 Ce의 함량을 조절하여 Ce/Ni 최적비를 찾고자 하였다. XRD, TPR, BET, $H_2$-Chemisorption과 같은 촉매의 특성분석을 통해 촉매의 비표면적, 환원특성과 Ni입자의 분산도 등을 확인하였다. Ce를 첨가함에 따라 Ce2.5wt%까지는 비표면적이 증가하다가 이후 점차 줄어드는 경향성을 보였다. 또한, $H_2$-Chemisorption 결과 역시 비표면적과 유사한 경향성을 보였는데, Ce5.0wt%까지 Ni 분산도가 증가 하다가 다시 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 반응실험은 $H_2O:CO_2:CH_4:N_2$ = 0.8:0.4:1:1의 공급조건에서 수행하였으며, 질소와 수소 환원분위기로 $700^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 환원 후 $650^{\circ}C$에서 $550^{\circ}C$범위로 온도를 떨어뜨려가면서 반응을 수행하였다. Ce를 첨가함에 따라 $CH_4$ 전환율이 증가를 하다가 Ce2.5wt% 이후 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 높은 촉매 활성은 Ce 첨가로 인해 환원특성이 좋아지고 Ni분산도가 증가하여 담체와 강한 상호작용(SMSI)을 형성함으로 탄소침적 저항성 강화에 기인한 것이다.

Changes in the interactions among incident ocean water waves, coastal debris (marine debris), and the back vegetation zone line on a natural sandy beach on the island of Jinu-do in the Nakdong river estuary were investigated. The study involved a cross-sectional field survey of the beach, numerical modeling of incident ocean water waves, field observations of the distribution of coastal debris, and vegetation zone line tracking using GPS. The conclusions of this study can be summarized as follows: (1) The ground level of the swash zone (sandy beach) on Jinu-do is rising, and the vegetation zone line, which is the boundary of the coastal sand dunes, shows a tendency to move forward toward the open sea. The vegetation zone line is developing particularly strongly in the offshore direction in areas where the ground level is elevated by more than 1.5 m. (2) The spatial distributions of incident waves differed due to variations in the water depth at the front of the beach, and the wave run-up in the swash zone also displayed complex spatial variations. With a large wave run-up, coastal debris may reach the vegetation zone line, but if the run-up is smaller, coastal debris is more likely to deposit in the form of an independent island on the beach. The deposited coastal debris can then become a factor determining which vegetation zone line advances or retreats. Finally, based on the results of this investigation, a schematic concept of the mechanisms of interaction between the coastal debris and the coastal vegetation zone line due to wave action was derived.

In order to reduce toxicity on the human body, four new cleaning agents (1-4) containing ester and ether functionalities have been invented. The synthesized cleaning agents's physical properties, biodegradabilities, and $LD_{50}$ values, which were conducted by Korea Testing Certification Institute by using standard method, showed excellent values. A specimen for cleaning ability was prepared by cutting in $60{\times}40mm$ size of stainless steel plate. The surface of the above specimens was treated with four different kinds of contaminants, such as cutting oil, anti-rust oil, drawing oil, and lubricating oil. Contaminated specimens were then immersed in compounds (1-4) for 1 to 5 minutes to dissolve oil in the cleaning agent. The data indicate that all compounds (1-4) exhibit good cleaning ability toward four contaminant oils. It is also confirmed that these compounds can be applicable to various industrial cleaning fields as nontoxic and biodegradable cleaning agents because of their excellent biodegradabilities and $LD_{50}$ values.

In this study, we characterized steam reforming reactions and surface of $Ni/Al_2O_3$ catalysts. Ni-Mo based catalysts were prepared by loading Mo as the co-catalyst and reaction activities of the Ni-Mo based catalysts were compared with those of Ni-based catalysts. Through the $H_2$-TPR and XPS analysis it was confirmed that this characteristic efficiency. $O_2$-TPO analysis was performed to examine the deposition characteristics, bonding structures and evaporation characteristics of carbon deposited on the surface of catalysts after long run experiments were performed for steam reforming reactions. As the results, it was found that durability was improved in Ni-Mo based catalysts inhibiting formation of graphitic carbon species which reduced reaction activities of the catalysts by strongly interacting with Ni in the steam reforming reaction.

1. 서론 : 한외여과(ultrafiltration; UF)는 장치 및 조작이 간단하고, 열의 사용없이 물질을 분리 정제를 할 수 있기 때문에 생물제품 등을 비롯한 거대분자들의 분리에 널리 활용되고 있다. 그러나 한외여과 공정의 운전시 가장 큰 문제점은 막에 의해 분리된 물질들이 필연적으로 막표면에 가역적으로 누적되는 농도분극(concentration polarization)과 이 누적된 물질이 막과의 상호작용에 의해 막표면에 비가역적으로 침적되는 막오염(membrane fouling)현상을 유발시킨다는 것이다. 일반적으로 한외여과는 막세공과 분리 대상물의 크기차에 의한 sieve effect에 의해 분리가 이루어지는데 막오염이 발생되면 세공의 일부 또는 전체가 막히게 되어 결국에는 투과선속(permeate flux)이 감소하고, 막의 세공분포가 달라져 막 본래의 분리성능에 변화가 초래된다.(생략)

어류에 축적된 유기화합물은 생식소와 생식세포에 직접적인 작용으로 수정을 저해(Spies et al., 1988)하고 부화율(Hose et al., 1982)을 감소시킬 수 있다. Bishenol A(BPA)는 음식용기와 음료 포장재료로 사용되고 있으며, 캔 용기, 병 뚜껑 그리고 물 공급용 파이프 등에 금속을 코팅하는 물질이다. 이 연구는, 내분비장애물질이 생물의 번식력과 종 연속성에 미치는 영향을 규명하는 연구의 일환으로, 송사리, Oryzias latipes의 수정란을 BPA에 침적처리 하였을 때 수정난의 초기발생에 미치는 영향과 송사리 어미에 BPA를 경구투여 하였을 때 산란량과 부화율에 미치는 영향을 번식생물학적 측면에서 탐색하였다 (중략)

도시지역 하층대기의 오존 연직분포는 지표부근의 NOx배출의 영향과 대기경계층의 일변화 및 구조적 특성에 의해 시·공간적으로 큰 변화를 나타낸다. 일반적으로 야간에는 역전층 내의 건성침적과 NOx 적정작용에 의해 오존농도가 감소하며, 하층 안정층과 분리되어 있는 잔류층(residual layer)의 오존농도와 큰 차이를 보이게 된다. 아울러 일출 후 안정층 파괴와 혼합고 성장에 의해 지표부근의 오존농도가 증가하고 연직적으로 비교적 일정한 오존분포가 나타난다(Zang et al., 1998; Berkowitz et al., 2000).

Endorcarp inhibited the embryo growth of ginseng seeds. This inhibition is not due to impermeability to water, but is probably caused by mechanical resistance. The embryo growth rate was enhanced by endocarp injury by soaking for 10 to 30 minutes in 2.5% solution of sodium hydroxide. But sulfuric acid did not affect on the embryo growth of ginseng seed.

In order to clarify the advection and dispersion characteristics of volcanic tephra to be emitted from the Mt. Baekdu, several numerical experiments were carried out using three-dimensional atmospheric dynamic model, Weather and Research Forecast (WRF) and Laglangian particles dispersion model FLEXPART. Four different temporally averaged meteorological values including wind speed and direction were used, and their averaged intervals of meteorological values are 1 month, 10 days, and 3days, respectively. Real time simulation without temporal averaging is also established in this study. As averaging time of meteorological elements is longer, wind along the principle direction is stronger. On the other hands, the tangential direction wind tends to be clearer when the time become shorten. Similar tendency was shown in the distribution of volcanic tephra because the dispersion of particles floating in the atmosphere is strongly associated with wind pattern. Wind transporting the volcanic tephra is divided clearly into upper and lower region and almost ash arriving the Korean Peninsula is released under 2 km high above the ground. Since setting up the temporal averaging of meteorological values is one of the critical factors to determine the density of tephra in the air and their surface deposition, reasonable time for averaging meteorological values should be established before the numerical dispersion assessment of volcanic tephra.
