In the reaction furnace of modified Claus process, chemical equilibrium reactions and kinetic reactions occur simultaneously. The main kinetic components are hydrogen ($H_2$), carbon monoxide (CO), carbonyl sulphide (COS) and carbon disulphide ($CS_2$). The equilibrium calculations, empirical correlations and sulfur recovery technology providers' (licensors) data for kinetic components (COS and $CS_2$) in the reaction furnace were analyzed to evaluate the amount of kinetic components by applying them to five different projects in which GS Engineering & Construction participated. Kinetic components ($H_2$ and CO) are also calculated and the results are analyzed to evaluate the impact of temperature in the reaction furnace and the waste heat boiler. Total required $O_2$ deviations for combustion in the reaction furnace are additionally shown, with and without side reactions. A full understanding of side reactions in the modified Claus process can help to improve sulfur recovery efficiency and optimize equipment design.

Mo 단결정 표면에 황을 흡착시켜 형성된 상층구조를 AES와 LEED로써 연구하였다. 황의 피복률은 sulfur gun으로부터 생성되는 S2 flux로써 조절하였으며, 여러 가지 흡착된 황의 상층구조를 LEED로써 관찰하였다. 황화된 Mo 표면에서 탈산소반응(HDO)의 모델 분자로서, Furan의 흡착과 반응을 승온반응분광법(TPRS)으로 조사하였다. 낮은 온도에서 Furan 분자의 헤테로 원자는 직접 이탈하여 안정한 기체상의 반응 생성물인 일산화탄소를 형성하였으며, 이 반응은 Mo의 (100) 및 (110)면에서 각각 깨끗한 표면 및 황화된 표면에 관계없이 일어났다. 이를 바탕으로 Mo 표면에서 Furan의 분해반응에 대한 메카니즘을 제안하였다.

황을 포함하는 촉매는 황을 포함하지 않은 촉매보다 저온영역에서 상대적으로 우수한 활성을 갖는 것으로 관찰하였다. $V_2$$O_{5}$가 담지된 촉매는 황에 인해 표면에 polymeric vanadate가 형성되었기 때문인 것으로 확인되어 polymeric vanadate가 탈질제거 활성에 유리한 활성점으로 확인되었다. 또한 활성저하 실험에서 반응온도의 영향이 큰 것으로 확인되었는데 $300^{\circ}C$이상의 반응온도에서는 생성된 염이 제거되는 온도영역이므로 염의 생성으로 인한 활성 저하는 확인 할 수 없다. 그러므로 $300^{\circ}C$이상의 반응온도에서는 활성저하가 관찰되지 않아 본 연구에서 제조된 촉매는 $300^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서 조업되는 것이 바람직하다.

The kinetics of the gas phase reaction of ozone(∼0.5 torr) with sulfur trioxide was investigated in the range of 6∼12 torr pressure at 69∼150${\circ}C$. The reaction rate of ozone with sulfur trioxide was faster than the reaction rate of $O_3 in the presence of CO_2 alone. No evidence for a molecular reaction of O_3 with SO_3 was found and the faster rate is probably due to impurity (HX) from the SO_3 reactant which gives rise to a chain reaction initiated by O_3 ＋ HX → OH ＋ O_2 ＋ X and also SO_3 has a larger collision diameter, which may be attributed to the O3 thermal decomposition more feasibly. The proposed experimental law [-d(O_3)/dt] = k_a(SO_3)(O_3) ＋ k_b(O_3)^{3/2} gives a rate constant ka(M-1 s-1) = (1.55 {\pm} 0.67) {\times} 105 e-{(9.27 0{\pm}0.43)kcal/RT}.$

Separation-concentration of sulfur containing heterocyclic compounds(SCHC) from many reaction meat flavors manufactured with Maillard reaction was carried out. Profile of SCHC was identified and analyzed by GC and GC-MSD. The results were as follows. 1. Profile of SCHC could be identified 7 kinds thiazole and 11 kinds thiophene, the major produced compounds were thiophene, thiazolidine, 4-methyl-5-thiazole ethanol. 2. In the case of SCHC, relationship between changes of reaction conditions and the kind of produced components were as same, but produced amounts appeared the difference. Producing amount of complexed SCHC and caramellike note as well as oxygen containing heterocyclic compounds were high level more than high reaction temperature and long time reaction period. 3. Producing ratio of comparative simple structural SCHC were the highest level at reaction conditions of moisture content 50%, reaction temperature 100$^{\circ}C$ and reaction time 2 hours. Reaction conditions for the revelation of reaction meat flavor were below 110$^{\circ}C$ and less than 2 hours. 4. Relationship between moisture content and reaction temperature as well as reaction time had very relative relation. From the change of moisture content and reaction conditions could be obtained the simultaneously profile. Signal presentation for production of reaction meat flavor could be from extraction-separation-concentration of SCHC through simplification of raw-materials in the flavor and seasoning food industry.

석탄의 연소과정에서 필연적으로 발생하는 황(SOx) 및 질소산화물(NOx)을 제거하기 위한 방법중 하나인 동시처리기술중 PCD(pulsed corona discharge) 반응기의 반응조건은 첨가제의 성분 및 성상에 따라 다양하게 바뀌며 황 및 질소 산화물 제거반응에 큰 영향을 미친다(Akira M., 1995). 따라서 PCD 반응기에 유입되는 가스는 발전소 배기가스 조건을 적용한 상태에서 주입하는 첨가제의 종류 및 양을 변화시켜, 각종 첨가제의 주입이 탈황, 탈질 반응에 미치는 상승효과를 조사하였고 PCD 반응기에서 첨가제의 반응 현상을 규명코자 하였다(송영훈, 1997).

Two sulfur-based column reactors inoculated with a bacterial consortium containing autotrophic denitrifiers were operated for 100 and 500 days, respectively and nitrate removal efficiency and the adaptation of microbial communities in the columns were monitored with column depths and time. For better understanding the adaptation phenomenon, molecular techniques including 16S rDNA sequencing and DGGE analysis were employed. Although both columns showed about 99% of nitrate removal efficiency heterotrophic denitrifiers such as Cenibacterium arsenioxidans and Geothrix fermentans were found to a significant portion at the initial stage of the 100-day reactor operation. However, as operation time increased, an autotrophic denitrifier Thiobacillus denitrificans became a dominant bacterial species throughout the column. A similar trend was also observed in the 500-day column. In addition, nitrate removal efficiencies were different with column depths and thus bacterial species with different metabolic activities were found at the corresponding depths. Especially, T. denitrificans was successfully adapted and colonized at the bottom parts of the columns where most nitrate was reduced.

고체 흡수제를 이용한 석탄합성가스 중의 황제거 기술은 습식 스크러빙 방식에 비해 고온에서 운전가능하므로 석탄가스화복합발전의 효율 향상을 가져올 수 있다. 고체탈황제는 서로 연결된 두 개의 유동층 반응기를 순환하면서 흡수탑에서는 합성가스 중의 $H_2S$로부터 황을 흡수하고 재생탑에서는 공기 중의 산소와 흡수된 황이 반응하여 $SO_2$를 배출하고 재생된다. 따라서 고체 황 흡수제는 유동층 공정에 응용가능한 물성과 함께 높은 황흡수능과 빠른 반응성이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 기존 개발된 고체 탈황제가 가졌던 소성시 수축 현상, 낮은 내마모도 등을 개선하기 위해 지지체 조성을 변경하여 개발한 분무성형 탈황제의 흡수 재생 온도에 따른 황흡수 특성 변화를 조사하였다. $H_2S$ 1 vol. %를 함유한 모사 합성가스를 이용하여 흡수온도 450, $500^{\circ}C$, 재생온도 500, 550, 600, $650^{\circ}C$에서 황 흡수능을 열중량분석기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 개발된 흡수제는 유동층 공정 적용에 적합한 훌륭한 물성(형상, 밀도, 강도 등)과 함께 $500^{\circ}C$ 흡수와 $650^{\circ}C$ 재생을 기준으로 10 wt% 이상의 높은 황흡수능을 보여주었다. 흡수온도 변화는 황 흡수능 변화에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았으나, 재생온도가 $600^{\circ}C$ 이하인 경우 황흡수능이 5 wt% 이하로 크게 떨어져 재생온도를 $650^{\circ}C$ 이상 유지시키는 것이 중요함을 알 수 있었다.

Mine tailings generated during mining activity often contain high concentrations of heavy metals, with pyrite-containing mine tailings in particular being a major cause of environmental problems in mining areas. Chemical cell technology, or fuel cell technology, can be applied to leach heavy metals in pyrite-containing mine tailings. As pyrite dissolves through spontaneous oxidation (i.e. galvanic oxidation) in the anode compartment of the cell, $Fe^{3+}$, sulfuric acid are generated. A decrease in pH due to the generation of sulfuric acid allows heavy metals to be leached from pyrite-containing mine tailings. In this study, pyrite was dissolved for 4 weeks at $23^{\circ}C$ in an acidic solution (pH 2) and in a galvanic reactor, which induces galvanic oxidation, and total Fe leached from pyrite and pH were compared in order to investigate if galvanic oxidation can facilitate pyrite oxidation. The change in the pyrite surface was analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Comparing the total Fe leached from the pyrite, there were 2.9 times more dissolution of pyrite in the galvanic reactor than in the acidic solution, and thus pH was lower in the galvanic reactor than in the acidic solution. Through SEM analysis of the pyrite that reacted in the galvanic reactor, linear-shaped cracks were observed on the surface of the pyrite. The study results show that pyrite dissolution was facilitated through the galvanic oxidation in the galvanic reactor, and also implied that the galvanic oxidation can be one remediation option for pyrite-containing mine tailings.

Recently, there are increasing numbers of study regarding hydrogen fuels but researches on desulfurization of diesel are rare. In this study, we performed diesel desulfurization reactor design by computation fluid dynamics simulation. By analyzing the change in flow and sulfur concentration at the outlet according to the changes in flow rate, reactor length, and reactor diameter, we have found the minimum catalyst performance for the given flow rate condition and the relation between the reactor performance and the reactor size and shape. We also studied the effects of permeability of the packed bed on the flow and sulfur concentration distribution. The present work can be utilized to design a diesel desulfurization reactor for a fuel cell used in ships. Furthermore, the present work also can be used to design low sulfur diesel supply in oil refineries and therefore contribute to the development of clean petrochemical technology.
