In order to lower a reaction temperature with high conversions for simultaneous catalytic reduction of NO and $N_2O$ over Pd-Rh supported mixed metal oxide honeycomb catalysts, $H_2$ or CO was utilized as a reductant. When using the reductants, the effects of reaction conditions were examined in NO and $N_2O$ conversions, where reaction temperatures, concentrations of the reductants and oxygen and the concentration ratio of $N_2O$ to NO were varied. In using $H_2$ reductant, larger than 50% of NO and $N_2O$ conversions was observed at the temperatures below $200^{\circ}C$ in absence of $O_2$. In using CO reductant, NO and $N_2O$ conversions increased from the temperatures higher than $200^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$, respectively. However, in use of both reductants, NO and $N_2O$ conversions decreased with increasing oxygen concentration. As a result, $H_2$ reductant could reduce simultaneously NO and $N_2O$ at relatively lower reaction temperature than CO. Also, NO and $N_2O$ conversions were less influenced by using $H_2$ reductant than CO one. Concentration ratio between NO and $N_2O$ did not affect their conversions regardless the type of reductants. Pretreatment of the catalyst in $H_2$ was more effective in simultaneous reduction of NO and $N_2O$ at low reaction temperature than that in $O_2$.

$TiO_2$ as a raw material for producing titanium can be produced by carbon reduction of natural ilmenite ores over 1823 K and acid leaching of the obtained titanium-rich slag. However, the conventional process can cause very high energy consumption and a large amount of leaching residues. In the present study, we proposed the sulfurization of $FeTiO_3$ with $Na_2SO_4$ at temperatures below 1573 K, which can separate Fe in $FeTiO_3$ as the FeS based sulfide phase and Ti as the $TiO_2-Na_2O$ based oxide phase. This study is a fundamental study for sulfurization of $FeTiO_3$ to investigate the influence of reducing atmosphere, reaction temperature and the sulfur/Fe ratio on the separability and distribution behaviors of of Fe, Ti, and Na between the oxide phase and the sulfurized phase. At 1573 K and carbon saturation condition, the Fe can be separated from $FeTiO_3$ as Fe-C-S metal and a part of FeS, and the concentration of Fe in oxide decreased to 4 mass% after sulfurization.

용융탄산염 연료전지 상용화를 위해서 40,000 시간이상 장기 운전이 가능해야 한다. 장기운전을 위해 크랙 발생이 적고 기계적 강도가 높은 강화 매트릭스의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $LiAlO_2$에 알루미늄 나노입자를 첨가하여 매트릭스의 기계적 강도를 향상시키는 연구를 수행하였다. 나노 알루미늄 첨가 $LiAlO_2$ 그린 시트를 수소 분위기에서 열처리한 결과, 공기 분위기에서 열처리한 매트릭스에 비해 기계적 강도가 1.5배 증가함을 확인하였다. 이는 환원분위기에서 열처리를 할 경우, 알루미늄의 입자간의 소결으로 인한 neck이 형성 되어 $LiAlO_2$ 입자 간에 다리를 만들어주는 효과가 나타나 매트릭스의 기계적 강도가 크게 증진되었으리라 판단된다.

This is a study on the removal of nitrate nitrogen from wastewater by oxidation and reduction reaction of zinc in an acidic atmosphere. The optimum removal rate of nitrate nitrogen and the optimum pH were studied by controlling the amount of zinc and sulfamic acid. The oxidation efficiency was higher at pH 2.0 in the range of pH 2.0 ~ 4.0 because the reaction occurred more strongly in strong acidic atmosphere. It is advantageous to reduce the nitrate ion to the final nitrogen gas by adding the sulfamic acid to the sulfurous acid because it consumes less $H^+$ ion than when the sulfamic acid is not present. According to the same amount of zinc, nitrate nitrogen was removed by 46.0% while sulfamic acid was not added, whereas nitrite nitrogen was removed by 93.0% by adding sulfamic acid. In addition, In this experiment, zinc was prepared in powder form and its reactivity was larger than that of other common zinc metal, so the removal efficiency was very high, about 80.0%, within one minute after the reaction.

A novel method for the synthesis of titanium hydride powder from titanium tetrachloride via the magnesiothermic reduction in an hydrogen gas atmosphere was investigated. To examine the influence of temperature on the formation of titanium hydride, the reduction was conducted at 1023~1123 K under 1 atm of hydrogen gas atmosphere for approximately 30 min. Subsequently, the titanium hydride powder was sintered by maintaining the temperature for 0~120 min, and the decrease in the oxygen concentration of the powder was investigated. The experimental results showed that TiH_1.924 was produced at 1023 K, whereas mixtures of TiH_1.924 and TiH_1.5 were produced at 1073 K and 1123 K. In addition, the hydrogen concentration in the powder decreased with increasing temperature. The concentration of oxygen in the powder decreased with increasing temperature and sintering time owing to the decrease in the specific surface area of the powder. The minimum concentration of oxygen was 0.246 mass% when the mixture of TiH_1.924 and TiH_1.5 was obtained at 1073 K and a sintering time of 120 min.

This study was conducted to fabrication pig iron containing copper and to reduce sulfur content pig iron. Roasting test was conducted for 1 ~ 9 hours at each temperature of $500^{\circ}C$, $700^{\circ}C$, and $900^{\circ}C$. In addition, the effect of oxygen partial pressure with 0.5, 0.8, and 1 atm was carried out for 30 minutes at $900^{\circ}C$. It was found that there is no effect to reduce sulfure in pig iron through roasting and oxygen partial pressures. The addition of CaO with 15 wt.% was found to reduce sulfur content up to 0.001 wt.%. The suitable temperature and reactive time for carbothermic reduction were $1600^{\circ}C$ and 30 minutes which shows the highest recovery rate of iron from the copper slag.
