화석연료의 연소로부터 발생되는 질소산화물은 산성비, 광화학스모그 및 오존층 파괴에 관여하는 환경오염물질로서 대기오염의 주범이 되고 있다. 연소 후 배기가스 중의 질소산화물 제어를 위한 선택적 촉매환인공정(Selective Catalytic Reduction: SCR)은 안정적이며 고효율 설계가 가능하여 범용적으로 사용되고 있는 기술이다. SCR 공정은 최초 미국에서 개발되었으나 일본과 독일에서 발전시켜왔으며 국내에서도 공정의 핵심기술인 촉매에 대한 다양한 연구를 수행하여 일부에서는 상용화 수준에 이르고 있다. (중략)

최근에 들어 환경보전에 대한 시민의식이 고조되고 깨끗한 자연 및 생활환경을 유지하려는 노력 이 각계에서 일고 있다. 이와 관련된 문제점의 하나가 대기오염이며 이 오염원 중의 하나가 자 동차 배기물로서 특히 탄화수소(hydrocarbon:HC), 일산화탄소(CO), 질소산화물(NO$_{x}$)에 의 한 대기오염의 심각히 대두되어 왔으며 현재 환경청 등에 의해 국가적 차원에서 자동차 배기물에 대한 규젤ㄹ 강화하려는 움직임을 보이고 있다. 미국의 경우 연도별 배기규제기준을 살펴 보면 표.1 과 같으며, 국내에서도 88년까지 미국, 일본수준으로 신규제작차의 배출혀용기준을 강화할 계획으로 있다. 표1의 규제치르 보면 60년대의 비규제기간중의 배출량에 비해 탄화수소의 경우 96%, CO는 96%, NO$_{x}$는 76%의 감소를 보여주고 있으며 이 규제치는 5만mile을 규정된 방법으로 주행한 후 복잡한 사이클과정의 연방정부 시험절차 (Federal Test Procedure, FTP 또는 Constant Volume Sampling-Cold and Hot, CVS-CH)를 거쳐 만족하여야 한다. 상기의 규제치들을 만족시키기 위한 실용적 방법으로서 촉매전환기(catalytic converter)가 채택되고 있 으며 따라 본 해설에서는 자동차용 촉매전화기에 대한 자료들을 정리하여 특성, 문제점 등을 살펴 보고자 한다.

In this paper, the methodology of life-cycle assessment was applied to an ethanol production process based on catalytic reaction. The environmental performance of the process was quantified and compared with that of the fermentation process. The purpose of the assessment was to develop design guidelines for the environmentally better ethanol production. The assessment was carried only on the stages of raw material acquisition through ethanol manufacture since it was assumed that ethanol from two processes had the same environmental impacts through its use and discard. The inventory analysis of the catalytic process resulted in that carbon dioxide from methanol production was the major environmental impact. The impact assessment showed that the fermentation process was environmentally better than the catalytic one. Suggestions for environmental improvement of the catalytic process were prepared based on the assessment results.

The physicochemical properties of VOx/TiO₂ catalysts with different TiO₂ supports were analyzed, and SCR reactions were performed. VOx/TiO₂ catalysts were prepared by impregnation using anatase TiO₂, which was manufactured by Sigma Aldrich and prepared from TiOCl₂ and titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) as a precursor. They are denoted as VS, VC, and VP. The specific surface area of the VS was 1/10 or less of that of the VC and VP, and the dispersibility of vanadium oxide was relatively low. As a result of XPS analysis, the ratio of adsorbed oxygen was higher in VS and VP with Ti³⁺ than in VC. In VC and VP, vanadium mainly existed in V⁴⁺ and V³⁺ states in relation to the dispersibility of vanadium oxide. The amount of adsorbed oxygen contributed more to NH₃-SCR activity than vanadium oxide dispersibility below 250 ℃, while vanadium oxide dispersibility contributed more to activity beyond 300 ℃. The fast SCR activity in all three samples was the highest at NO₂/NOx = 0.5, followed by VS < VC < VP samples. It was determined that the dispersibility of vanadium oxide had a significant effect on fast NH₃-SCR activity.

To eliminate $NO_x$ in diesel emission. selective catalyst reduction (SCR) was used in real diesel engine. Among the SCR methods, metal oxide and perovskite catalysts were introduced in this paper. The removal efficiencies with various major, promoter catalysts on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ at different reaction temperature were investigated, and $LaCuMnO_x$ catalyst which has high removal efficiency at the temperature of real diesel exhaust gas was selected. $NO_x$ reduction was carried out over these catalysts in the flow-through type reactor using by-pass ($SV=3,300h^{-1}$). Under the given condition to this study, perovskite catalysts showed considerably high removal efficiency and $LaCuMnO_x$ was the best one among these catalysts in the temperature range of $150{\sim}450^{\circ}C$.

We prepared cylindrical y-alumina pellets using amorphous alumina and pore generating agent. The pellets were immersed in an aqueous solution of the mixture of Fe(NO$_3$)$_3$ㆍ9$H_{2}O$ and $CH_3$COOH. They were then hydrothermally treated at 20$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 h in autoclave, dried and calcined. For the application of environmental catalyst for its, we investigated the decomposition characteristics of 4-chlorophenol and the initiation characteristics of OH' conversion action in $O_3$ environment with or without the Fe$_2$O$_3$ supported ${\gamma}$-alumina catalyst and $O_3$ molecule.

We prepared the cylindrical $\gamma-alumina$ pellets of 5 mm in diameter and 10 mm in average length using amorphous alumina and pore generating agent. The pellets were immersed in an aqueous solution of the mixture of $Fe(NO_{3})_{3}{\cdot}9H_{2}O$ and $CH_{3}COOH$. They were then hydrothermally treated at $200^{\circ}C$ for 3 h in autoclave, dried and calcined. For the application as an environmental catalyst, we investigated the decomposition characteristics of aniline and the initiation characteristics of $OH^{\cdot}$ conversion action in $O_{3}$ environment with or without the $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ supported y-alumina catalyst and $O_{3}$ molecule.

The feasibility study for the application of the photoelectrocatalytic decolorization of Rhodamine B(RhB) was performed in the slurry photoelectrochemical reactor with powder TiO$_2$. The photoelectrocatalytic process was consisted of powder TiO$_2$, Pt electrode and three 8 W UV-C lamps. The effects of operating conditions, such as current, electrolyte, air flow rate and electrode material were evaluated. The experimental results showed that optimum TiO$_2$ dosage and current in photoelectrocatalytic process were 0.4 g/L and 0.02 A, respectively. It was found that the RhB could be degraded more efficiently by this photoelectrocatalytic process than the sum of the two individual oxidation processes(photocatalytic and electrolytic process). It demonstrated a synergetic effect between the photo- and electrochemical catalysis. Photoelectrocatalytic process was affected to air flow rate and optimum air flow rate was 2 L/min. The electrode material and NaCl effect of decolorization of RhB were not significant within the experiment conditions.

Catalytic oxidation of toluene on the manganese oxide catalysts and manganese-cerium oxide catalysts was investigated. The catalysts were characterised by X-ray diffraction(XRD), thermo gravimetric analyzer(TGA), toluene-temperature program reduction(Toluene-TPR). We found that the optimal manganese content was 18.2 wt.% and the optimal cerium content was 10.0 wt.% at catalytic oxidation of toluene. It is shown that ceria improves the activity of manganese oxide phases. From the XRD results, it was estimated that $MnO_2$ phase was active site in the monometallic and bimetallic catalysts. From the TGA and Toluene-TPR results, it show that ceria improves the mobility of the lattice oxygen, adequate oxidation state of the active phase, reduction ability at low temperature, and re-oxidation of the active site.
