Mechanical mixtures of vanadium molybdate and copper molybdate catalysts prepared by coprecipitation method, and those of $MoO_3$ and $V_2O_5$ were used to study the synergistic effects between each metal oxide for the selective oxidation of acrolein. The catalytic activity results revealed that the conversion of acrolein and yield of acrylic acid were increased with the mixture catalysts and it could be explained by a remote control mechanism. Thermal gravimetric analysis confirmed the evolution of lattice oxygen in the mixture catalysts.

This research work reports the development of a Ruthenium/2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO)/nitrate catalyst system for the highly selective transformation of isosorbide (1,4:3,6-dianhydro-D-glucitol) to isosorbide-diketone (2,6-dioxabicyclo (3,3,0)octan-4,8-one). Isosorbide is a critical platform molecule for future manufacturing processes. TEMPO has been utilized to convert alcohols to carbonyl compounds for a long time. The optimal chemical reaction condition was found to be when using isosorbide (0.5 mmol) with supported Ru (10 mol%), TEMPO (5 mol%), and sodium nitrate (0.03 mmol) in the presence of acetic acid (3 ml) as a solvent at 50 ℃ and 1 atm oxygen pressure. This catalyst system demonstrated good selectivity (> 97%) and yield (87%) with respect to the desired product, in addition to a putative catalytic double oxidation mechanism.

Thermodynamic evaluation indicates that nearly 100% conversion of elemental mercury to oxidized mercury can be attained by HCl of several tens of ppm level at the temperature window of SCR reaction. Cu-, Fe-, Mn-chloride loaded $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalysts revealed good NO removal activity at the operating temperature window of SCR process. The catalysts with high desorption temperature indicating adsorption strength of $NH_3$ revealed higher NO removal activity. The HCl fed to the reaction gases promoted the oxidation of mercury. However, the activity for the oxidation of elemental mercury to oxidized mercury by HCl was suppressed by $NH_3$ inhibiting the adsorption of HCl to catalyst surface under SCR reaction condition containing $NH_3$ for NO removal. Metal chloride loaded $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalysts showed much higher activity for mercury oxidation than $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalyst without metal chloride under SCR reaction condition. This is primarily attributed to the participation of chloride in metal chloride on the catalyst surface promoting the oxidation of elemental mercury.

Effects of operating parameters such as activated carbon dose, gaseous $O_3$ concentration and pH on the properties of methylene blue(MB) degradation in a catalytic ozonation were investigated through a series of batch experiments. Activated carbon catalyzed the self-decomposition of ozone, generating $OH{\cdot}$, thus promoting MB degradation. Thus the increase of activated carbon dose enhanced the MB and TOC removal. The higher gaseous ozone concentration injected, the promoted MB and TOC removal obtained through the enhanced mass transfer. The MB removal was not significantly affected by the variation of aqueous pH. Catalytic ozonation can be considered as an efficient alternative in treating refractory pollutants in textile wastewater with faster and higher dye and TOC removal compared with ozonation and adsorption.

To remove nitrogen oxides(NOx) in exhaust gas of diesel engine, three-way catalytic process with plasma discharger has great possibilities. Characteristics of NOx removal depends on NO conversion to NO$_2$and/or HNO$_3$due to high activation energies for NO oxidation and reduction. NOx removal efficiency by using three-way catalytic with plasma discharger indicated about 50% at 40watt power consumption condition.

M/BM -series catalysts, $MoO_3$ supported on ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$ were also prepared by impregnation method. BM/M-series catalysts, ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$ supported on $MoO_3$ were also prepared by coprecipitation. Structure and catalytic properties of the two phase catalysts were studied by means of using nitrogen adsorption, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The reaction test for the selective oxidation of propylene to acrolein over Bi-molybdate catalysts was studied using a fixed-bed reactor system. In M/BM-series catalysts, $MoO_3$ was dispersed on ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$, and the crystal structure of ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$ remains unchanged by the presence of excess $MoO_3$. However the surface morphology and bulk structure of BM/M-series catalysts were altered probably because the precipitated $Bi(OH)_3$ reacted with $MoO_3$ during the calcination to form ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$ phase. The results of propylene oxidation on both series catalysts showed that the reaction took place over the surface of ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$ particle and the role of excess $MoO_3$ was to supply oxygen to ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$. These increasing effects on activity were also observed in the mechanical mixtures of ${\alpha}-Bi_2Mo_3O_{12}$ and $MoO_3$.

The preparation of glycerol carbonate (GC) from urea through carbonylation with renewable glycerol was investigated by using ionic liquid catalysts. It was found that quaternary ammonium salt and imidazolium salt ionic liquids with a shorter alkyl chain length and higher nucleophilic anion showed better catalytic performance. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time and degree of vacuum on the reactivity of TBAC catalyst ware discussed. Zinc chloride ($ZnCl_2$) was used as co-catalyst with the ionic liquid catalyst. The mixed catalyst showed a synergy effect on the glycerol conversion and GC yield probably due to the acid-base properties of the catalysts.

Recent studies dealing with the fundamental understanding and applications of bimetallic catalysts are discussed. Bimetallic catalysts have had a major industrial impact, specifically for the reforming of petroleum naphtha, for the hydrogen reduction of carbon monoxide, and for the three way catalytic converter system. The action of the bimetallic catalysts in these reactions may be interpreted in terms of ensembles, electronic influences and surface structure. Various combinations of metal pairs have been considered in order to evaluate the role played by the added metals. For catalyst selectivity control, the possibility of surface enrichment of one element has been recognised. More generally, the influence of preparative variables on the formation of supported catalysts has been clarified, In particular by temperature programmed reduction (TPR). Information on the structure of bimetallic catalysts has been obtained with chemical probes, such as chemisorption and reaction rate measurement and physical probes, such as extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and Xe-NMR.

현재 국내에서 많이 연구 개발되고 있는 펼스코로나 방식은 자동차와 같은 소규모 오염 배출 원에 적용하기엔 경제적.기술적 한계를 가지고 있으며, 또한 3원 촉매법과 같은 화학촉매환원법은 사용조건이 엄격하고 일부 오염물질의 저감만이 가능하기 때문에 종합적인 공해물질 저감대책으로서는 한계가 있다. 따라서 자동차와 같은 소규모 오염배출원에 있어서 다양한 배기오염물질의 동시처리가 가능한 경제적이고 종합적인 공해물질 저감방법의 제시는 매우 중요한 당면 과제이다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 현재 본 연구팀이 보유한 전기재료 및 방전분석 기술을 바탕으로 최근 국외에서 자동차 배기가스에서 공해물질의 배출억제 방안으로 활발히 연구되고 있는 유전체방벽방전 방식에 대해 체계적 실험 분석 등을 통하여 보다 효율적인 공해물질 제거방법을 도출하고자 한다.

아직까지 국내에서 사용하는 대부분의 에너지는 화석연료에 의존하고 있다. 지하자원에서 나오는 석탄, 석유와 같은 화석연료는 다른 에너지원에 비해 운송이 간편하고 쉽게 이용할 수 있는 장점이 있지만, 환경오염의 문제성과 오일가상승, 자원의양 및 저장장소가 한정되어 있다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 따라 수소와 같은 대체에너지를 이용하여 환경오염을 예방하고 무한히 사용할 수 있는 에너지원을 개발하기 위한 대체 방안들이 연구되고 있다. 폐기물 가스화시 발생되는 합성가스(CO, $CO_2$, $CH_4$, $H_2$) 내 일차로 생성된 일산화탄소는 수증기와 반응함으로써 이산화탄소로 전환이 가능하다. 잔류 메탄은 이산화탄소를 이용하여 개질함으로써 합성가스내 수소농도를 높일 수 있다. 전환된 잔류가스(CO, $CO_2$, $H_2$)내 일산화탄소는 산소를 이용하여 이산화탄소로 산화시킬 수 있으며, 산화된 이산화탄소는 흡착제를 이용하여 제거가 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 실제 가스화시 발생되는 합성가스를 이용하기 위하여, RPF가스화시 발생되는 합성가스를 직접 포집하여 실험을 진행하였다. 합성가스내 소량의 메탄은 니켈촉매를 이용하여 수소로 전화시켰으며, 잔류하는 일산화탄소는 백금촉매, 이산화탄소는 탄산나트륨 흡착제를 이용하여 연속적으로 제거함으로써 순수한 수소를 제공하였다.
