활상탄소섬유는 입상 활성탄에 비해 빠른 흡 · 탈착 속도와 높은 흡착량을 갖기 때문에 흡착재, 촉매, 분자체와 같은 환경 신소재로서 큰 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 안정화 PAN계 탄소섬유를 수증기와 CO2를 이용한 물리적 활성화에 의해 여러 등급의 활성탄소섬유를 제조하였고, 비표면적, 요오드 흡착량, 세공구조 등을 측정하였다. 수증기 활성화에서 77%의 burn-off에서 비표면적이 1019 m2/g을 나타내었고, 반면에 CO2 활성화에서는 52%의 burn-off에서 7168m2/g의 비표면적을 갖는 활성탄소섬유가 제조되었다 그러나, 비슷한 burn-off에서는 CO2로 활성화한 경우에서 세공용적이 0.37 cc/g이고, 요오드 흡착량이 1589 mg/g으로서 수증기 활성화보다 더 큰 세공용적과 요오드 흡착량을 나타내었다. 또한 제조된 활성탄소섬유의 질소 흡착등온선들은 Brunaner-Deming-Deming-Teller의 분류에 따르면 모두 type I으로 주로 미세공들로 이루어져 있음을 알 수가 있었다.

본 연구에서는 fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) 제품 가공시 발생하는 분진 및 악취 물질로 인한 작업현장의 악조건을 개선하기 위하여 activated carbon fiber (ACF) 장착 하이브리드 백필터를 개발하였다. FRP 제조업체 2개사에 ACF 백필터를 설치함에 있어 천장, 벽하단 부분에 덕트를 설치함은 물론 이동식 집진 덕트를 설치함으로써 집진효율을 높였다. 펄스젯트식 탈진방식을 채택하여 효과적인 시스템 운영을 유도함으로써 작업환경을 개선하고자 하였다. 하이브리드 백필터 시스템 운용시 이에 따르는 분진과 악취에 대한 제거동향을 고찰하였다.

One of the major malodorous gas at the working place is hydrogen sulfide and impregnated activated carbon fiber(ACF) was used as a adsorbent to remove this gas. ACF is treated and impregnated with chemicals to increase the adsorption capacity. The experiments showed that the adsorption efficiency for hydrogen sulfide was increased in case of impregnation with $Na_2CO_3$ or KI. Also, by the surface treatment with NaOH, the adsorption efficiency was increased however not so much as impregnation. KI was the best impregnant for this purpose and the optimum concentration was 9wt%. The adsorption capacity of hydrogen sulfide was more than 500mg/g ACF.

Poor indoor air quality is now worldwide concern due to its adverse impacts on our health and environment. Moreover, these impacts carry a significant burden to the economy. Various technical approaches (e.g., biological, activated carbon fiber (ACF), photocatlytic oxidation (PCO), etc.) have gained popularity in controlling indoor volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This is because removing indoor VOC sources or increasing ventilation rates is often not feasible or economical. This review provides an overview of the various air purification technologies used widely to improve indoor air quality. Although most of these technologies are very useful to remove indoor VOCs, there is no single fully satisfactory method due to their diversity and presence at the low concentration. To achieve technical innovations and the development of specific testing protocols, one should possess a better knowledge on the mechanisms of substrate uptake at VOC concentrations.

ACF을 이용한 컬럼흡착에서 유기물의 액상흡착을 크로마토그래피에 의하여 측정하였다. 박테리아가 없는 상태에서의 텍스트로스의 흡착평형상수 Ka는 $72.5cm^3/g$이었으며 박테리아 공존상에서의 Ka값은 $87.9cm^3/g$을 나타내였다. 이것은 ACF상(床)의 박테리아의 존재가 유기물의 흡착평형상수 증가에 기여함을 알 수 있었다. 축방향혼합확산계수 Ez는 박테리아의 유무에 의존하지 않았다.

Adsorption characteristics of glass fibers, obtained from the spent lithium primary batteries recycling process, were investigated for the removal of Acid Red 27 dye from aqueous solution. The batch data clearly showed that increasing the initial sorptive concentration apparently enhanced the amount adsorbed and the uptake process followed the pseudo-second order rate model. The equilibrium adsorption data at different initial sorptive concentrations were fitted well to Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms. Moreover, the increase in temperature, favored the uptake of dye on this solid, indicated the process was endothermic in nature. Further, using the temperature dependence sorption data obtained at different temperatures was used to estimate various thermodynamic parameters.

Coal tar pitch was chemically modified with 10 wt% benzoquinone (BQ) to raise the softening point of isotropic pitch precursor and the precursor was melt-spun into pitch fibers, stabilized, carbonized and activated with steam at $900^{\circ}C$. The weight loss of carbon fiber-benzoquinone (CF-BQ) increased with the increase of activation time like other fibers, but was lower than those of Kureha fiber at the same activation time in spite of larger geometric surface area. Those adsorption isotherms fitted into 'Type I' according to Brunauer, Deming, Deming and Teller classification. However, there was very thin low-pressure hysteresis that lower closure points of the hysteresis are about 0.42-0.45. From the pore size distribution curves, there might be some micropores having narrow-necked bottle; a series of interconnected pore is more likely than discrete bottles. FT-IR studies showed that the functional groups such as carboxyl, quinone, and phenol were introduced to ACFs-BQ surface after steam activation. Methylene blue decolorization and iodine adsorption capacity of ACF-BQ increased linearly with the increase of specific surface area and was larger than that of ACF-Kureha at the same specific surface area.

Carbon supported electrocatalysts are commonly used as electrode materials for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs). These kinds of electrocatalysts provide large surface area and sufficient electrical conductivity. The support of typical PEM fuel cell catalysts has been a traditional conductive type of carbon black. However, even though the carbon particles conduct electrons, there is still significant portion of Pt that is isolated from the external circuit and the PEM, resulting in a low Pt utilization. Herein, new types of carbon materials to effectively utilize the Pt catalyst are being evaluated. Carbon nanofiber/activated carbon fiber (CNF/ACF) composite with multifunctional surfaces were prepared through catalytic growth of CNFs on ACFs. Nickel nitrate was used as a precursor of the catalyst to synthesize carbon nanofibers(CNFs). CNFs were synthesized by pyrolysising $CH_4$ using catalysts dispersed in acetone and ACF(activated carbon fiber). The as-prepared samples were characterized with transmission electron microscopy(TEM), scanning electron microscopy(SEM). In TEM image, carbon nanofibers were synthesized on the ACF to form a three-dimensional network. Pt/CNF/ACF was employed as a catalyst for PEMFC. As the ratio of prepared catalyst to commercial catalyst was changed from 0 to 50%, the performance of the mixture of 30 wt% of Pt/CNF/ACF and 70wt% of Pt/C commercial catalyst showed better perfromance than that of 100% commercial catalyst. The unique structure of CNF can supply the significant site for the stabilization of Pt particles. CNF/ACF is expected to be promising support to improve the performance in PEMFC.
