  • Thermolysis of $Cu(NO_3)_2{\cdot}3H_2O$ impregnated activated carbon fiber (ACF) was studied by means of XRD analysis to obtain Cu-impregnated ACF. $Cu(NO_3)_2{\cdot}3H_2O$ was converted into $Cu_2O$ around $230^{\circ}C$. The $Cu_2O$ was reduced to Cu at $400^{\circ}C$, resulting in ACF-C(Cu). Some Cu particles have a tendency to aggregate through the heat treatment, resulting in the ununiform distribution in ACF. Catalytic decomposition of NO gas has been performed by Cu-impregnated ACF in a column reactor at $400^{\circ}C$. Initial NO concentration was 1300 ppm diluted in helium gas. NO gas was effectively decomposed by 5~10 wt% Cu-impregnated ACF at $400^{\circ}C$. The concentration of NO was maintained less than 200 ppm for 6 hours in this system. The ACF-C(Cu) deoxidized NO to $N_2$ and was reduced to ACF-$C(Cu_2O)$ in the initial stage. The ACF-$C(Cu_2O)$ also deoxidized NO to $N_2$ and reduced to ACF-C(CuO). This ACF-C(CuO) was converted again into ACF-C(Cu) by heating. There was no consumption of ACF in mass during thermolysis and catalytic decomposition of NO to $N_2$ by copper. The catalytic decomposition was accelerated with increase of the reaction temperature.

  • Plasma polymerization of allylamine subsequently after plasma pre-treatment was conducted on the activated carbon fibers (ACFs) for the immobilization of amine groups in the surface of ACFs. The change of structural properties of ACFs with respect to different polymerization conditions was investigated through BET method. The change of surface morphologies of ACFs with respect to different plasma polymerization power was also studied through AFM. It was found that the structural properties such as specific surface area and micropore volume could be optimized under certain plasma deposition conditions. It was reckoned that treatment and deposition showed adverse effect on plasma polymerization, in which the former developed the micro-structures of the ACFs and the latter tended to block the micro pores. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed that the poly(allylamine) was successfully immobilized on the surface of ACFs and the amount of the deposited polymer layer was related to the plasma polymerization power. SEM results showed that the plasma deposited polymer layer were small and homogenously distributed. The size and the distribution of particles deposited were closely related to the plasma polymerization power, too.

  • Activated carbon fiber (ACF) surfaces are modified using an electron beam under different aqueous solutions to improve the NO gas sensitivity of a gas sensor based on ACFs. The oxygen functional group on the ACF surface is changed, resulting in an increase of the number of non-carbonyl (-C-O-C-) groups from 32.5% for pristine ACFs to 39.53% and 41.75% for ACFs treated with hydrogen peroxide and potassium hydroxide solutions, respectively. We discover that the NO gas sensitivity of the gas sensor fabricated using the modified ACFs as an electrode material is increased, although the specific surface area of the ACFs is decreased because of the recovery of their crystal structure. This is attributed to the static electric interaction between NO gas and the non-carbonyl groups introduced onto the ACF surfaces.

  • In this paper, impregnated activated carbon fiber (IACF) was manufactured to pitch-based activated carbon fibers (ACF) with potassium hydroxide (KOH) by using wet impregnation method to raise nitrogen oxides ($NO_x$) adsorptivity. The properties of IACF were observed using EPMA, TGA and DSC and $NO_x$ adsorptivity was observed at high and low temperature. Before and after adsorption was analyzed using ToF-SIMS for examine surface characterization of adsorbed $NO_x$. The results showed that the better adsorptivity appeared for increasing KOH ratio. So, $NO_x$ adsorptivity showed result that is proportional between KOH and the adsorbed amount. On the other hand, adsorbent that manufactured without washing was better $NO_x$ adsorptivity than adsorbent that manufactured with washing. The behavior of adsorption show that crossing time of NO and $NO_2$ delayed for a rising adsorptivity. And NO ratio increased but $NO_2$ ratio decreased according as KOH ratio increases. $NO_x$ was confirmed through surface analysis that remain in $NO_2^-$ and $NO_3^-$ form on IACF surface.

  • 활성탄소섬유(ACF; activated carbon fiber)를 흡착제로 사용한 고상추출법(SPE; solid phase extraction)으로 수용액 시료 중에 존재하는 특정화학물질(schedule chemicals)의 분석법을 연구하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 특정화학물질은 화학작용제류의 가수분해 생성물과 유사작용제로 사용되는 알킬포스포네이트류, 티오디글리콜 등 14종이었다. 분석을 위한 추출물의 실릴 유도체화 반응에서 피리딘을 사용하여 특히 3-quinuclidinol의 유도체화 반응 효율을 높일 수 있었다. 물 시료에서 아민류의 추출 회수율을 개선하기 위하여 SPE-ACF 튜브에 시료를 부하하기 전에 5% triethylamine/MeOH(1 mL) 용액으로 SPE-ACF 튜브를 세척한 후에 시료를 SPE-ACF에 부하하는 방법으로 추출 회수율을 증대시킬 수 있었다. 이 연구를 통해서 수용액 시료에서 특정화학물질을 신속히 검출할 수 있는 최적 조건을 선정하였다.

  • 활성탄소섬유를 사용하여 염소소독 후 수돗물 내에 부산물로 존재하는 4종 트리할로메탄을 제거하였다. THMs의 종류별 농도 및 용액의 온도를 달리하면서 흡착실험을 수행하고 활성탄소섬유의 표면특성에 따른 흡착능력과 흡착메카니즘을 살펴본 결과, 4종의 THMs은 모두 Langmuir 타입의 흡착등온곡선을 보이면서 매우 신속하게 활성탄소섬유에 흡착되었다. THMs의 흡착은 활성탄소섬유의 표면에 균일하게 발달된 미세공의 입구에 물리적 및 화학적 수소결합으로 이루어졌다고 판단된다. Langmuir 타입은 특히 저농도 오염원 일때 제거효율이 높기 때문에 수돗물 내에 약 $30{\mu}g/L$ 수준으로 존재하는 THMs의 제거에는 활성탄소섬유가 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있다. 4종 THMs 종류별 흡착량은 큰 차이는 없으나 chloroform, bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane, 및 bromoform 의 순서로 증가하였다. 이는 brom 원자수의 증가와 일치하며 극성의 감소로 용해도가 낮아짐에 따라 흡착량이 증가한 것이다.

  • 녹조현상 발생시 남조류에 의하여 발생하는 이취미 물질인 Geosmin과 2-methylisoborneol(2-MIB)는 수돗물에 냄새를 유발하는 원인 물질로서 제거가 필요하다. 일반적으로 정수장에서는 이취미 물질의 제거를 위하여 활성탄을 사용하고 있으나 활성탄의 기공 분포와 활성탄의 입자크기가 이취미 물질 흡착제 미치는 영향에 대한 정보는 부족하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 다양한 활성탄의 기공분포와 활성탄의 입자 크기가 이 취미 물질 흡착에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 분말활성탄(PAC), 입상활성탄(GAC), 활성탄소섬유(ACF)의 이취미 물질 흡착을 비교한 결과, PAC > ACF > GAC 순서로 이취미물질 흡착제거효율이 높았다. 다양한 기공분포 특성을 갖는 분말활성탄들을 비교한 결과, 미세기공이 잘발달된 경우가 Geosmin과 2-MIB의 흡착에 유리한 것으로 나타났으며, 입자 크기의 경우에는 작을수록 Geosmin과 2-MIB의 흡착에 보다 효과적이었다.
