A simulated wastewater containing the dye Rhodamine B (RhB) was electrolytically treated using a three-dimensional electrode reactor equipped with granular activated carbon (GAC) as particle electrode. The effect of type of packing material (GAC, ACF, Nonwoven fabric fiber coated with activated carbon), amounts of GAC packing (25-100 g), current (0.5-3 A) and electrolyte concentration (0.5-3 g/l) was evaluated. Experimental results showed that performance for RhB decolorization of the 3 three-dimensional electrodes lie in: GAC > Nonwoven fabric fiber > ACF. When considered RhB decolorization, oxidants concentration and electric power, optimum GAC dosage was 50 g. Generated concentration of 3 oxidants ($ClO_2$, free Cl, $H_2O_2$) was increased with increase of applied current, however optimum current for RhB degradation was 2.5 A. The oxidants concentration was increased with increase of NaCl concentration and optimum NaCl dosage for RhB degradation was 1.5 g/l.

The bioelectrochemical reduction of nitrate in the presence of various mediators including methyl viologen and azure A was studied using a 3-electrode voltammetric system. The catalytic potential for the reduction of the mediators was observed in the reactor, which for methyl viologen and azure A were -0.74 V and -0.32 V, respectively, with respect to the potential of Ag/AgCl reference electrode. This potential was then applied to a working electrode to reduce each mediator for enzymatic nitrate reduction. Nitrite, the product of the reaction, was measured to observe the enzymatic nitrate reduction in the reaction media. Methyl viologen was observed as the most efficient mediator among those tested, while azure A showed the highest electron efficiency at the intrinsic reduction potential when the mediated enzyme reactions were carried out with the freely solubilized mediator. The electron transfer of azure A with respect to time was due to the adhesion of azure A to the hydrophilic surface during the reduction. In addition, the use of the adsorbed mediator on conductive activated carbon was proposed to inhibit the change in the electron transfer rate during the reaction by maintaining a constant mediator concentration and active surface area of the electrode. Azure A showed better than nitrite formation than methyl viologen when used with activated carbon.

Carbon is an attractive candidate for use in eletrochemical supercapacitors that depend on charge storage in the electrode/electrolyte international double layer. Property of an electrical double layer capacitor depend both on the technique used to prepare the electrode and on the current collector structure. The study is to research that V$_2$O$_{5}$-flyash-AC composite electrode for supercapacitor. The discharge capacitance of V$_2$O$_{5}$-flyash-AC(70wt%) in 1st and 50th cycle was 18.6F/g and 15.13F/g at current density of 0.5mA/cm$^2$. The discharge process of V$_2$O$_{5}$-flyash (3 : 97)-AC composite electrode is larger than that others.thers.

$LiMn_2O_4$와 활성탄을 양극의 활물질로 사용하여 비수계 슈퍼커패시터를 제조하고 $LiMn_2O_4$의 함량에 따른 특성을 분석하였다. Cyclic voltammetry, AC impedance 분석 등을 통하여, 활성탄의 전기 이중층으로 인한 capacitive 효과에 $Li^+$ 이온의 intercalation/deintercalation에 의한 faradaic 효과가 더해진 pseudocapacitance의 발현을 확인할 수 있었으며, $LiMn_2O_4$의 함량이 증가할수록 비정전용량 및 에너지 밀도가 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. $LiMn_2O_4:C$의 비율이 0.86:0.14인 복합 양극을 사용하여, 순수 활성탄 양극 대비 2배 이상인 23.83 F/cc의 비정전용량과 17.51 Wh/L의 에너지밀도를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 1,000회 충방전 후에도 60% 이상 향상된 비정전용량과 에너지 밀도를 얻을 수 있었다.

Electric double-layer capacitors based on charge storage at the interface between a high surface area activated carbon electrode and an electrolyte solution are characterized by their long cycle-life and high power density in comparison with batteries. However, energy density of electric double-layer capacitors obtained at present is about 6 Wh/kg at a power density of 500W/kg which is smaller as compared with that of batteries and limits the wide spread use of the capacitors. Therefore, a new capacitor that shows larger energy density than that of electric double-layer capacitors is proposed. The new capacitor is the hybrid capacitor consisting of activated carbon cathode, carbonaceous anode and an organic electrolyte. Maximum voltage applicable to the cell is over 4.2V that is larger than that of the electric double-layer capacitor. As a result, discharged energy density on the basis of stacked volume of electrode, current collector and separator is more than 18Wh/l at a power density of 500W/l.

본 연구에서는 고용량 EDLC 전극의 제조를 위하여 전극의 활물질인 활성탄소에 $NF_3$ 가스를 이용하여 아미노불소화 반응을 유도하였다. 또한, 아미노불소화 반응에 의한 활성탄소의 기공 및 표면화학적 특성 변화와 그로부터 제조된 활성탄소전극의 비정전용량 특성 변화에 대하여 고찰하였다. 활성탄소의 아미노불소화 반응은 재료의 표면 기공특성을 저하시키지 않고 비표면적 및 기공부피 등의 기공특성을 유지시키면서 활성탄소의 표면에 전기화학적 특성의 향상에 도움이 되는 질소 및 불소 관능기를 효과적으로 도입시켰다. 1 at% 이하의 질소 및 불소 관능기가 도입된 활성탄소전극 (E-NF100AC)은 2 mV/s의 전압주사속도 조건에서 528 (${\pm}9$) F/g의 비정전용량으로 미처리 활성탄소전극(E-RAC)과 비교하여 약 122%의 용량증대효과를 나타내었다. 반면에, E-NF200AC의 조건에서는 1 at% 이상, 과량의 불소 관능기가 도입됨에 따라 E-NF100AC에 비하여 용량이 감소하였으며 이러한 결과로부터 적당량의 질소 및 불소 관능기 도입이 활성탄소전극의 비정전용량을 효과적으로 증가시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

$Li_2MnSiO_4$ was synthesized using the solid-state method under an Ar atmosphere at three different calcination temperatures (900, 950, and $1000^{\circ}C$). The optimization of the carbon coating was also carried out using various molar concentrations of adipic acid as the carbon source. The XRD pattern confirmed that the resulting $Li_2MnSiO_4$ particles exhibited an orthorhombic structure with a $Pmn2_1$ space group. Cyclic voltammetry was utilized to investigate the capacitive behavior of $Li_2MnSiO_4$ along with activated carbon (AC) in a hybrid supercapacitor with a two-electrode cell configuration. The $Li_2MnSiO_4$/AC cell exhibited a high discharge capacitance and energy density of $43.2Fg^{-1}$ and $54Whkg^{-1}$, respectively, at $1.0mAcm^{-2}$. The $Li_2MnSiO_4$/AC hybrid supercapacitor exhibited an excellent cycling stability over 1000 measured cycles with coulombic efficiency over > 99 %. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was conducted to corroborate the results that were obtained and described.
