In this study, the incineration of MEK and toluene was studied on a Pt supported alumina catalyst at temperature range from 200 to $350^{\circ}C$. An approach based on the Mars-van Krevelen rate model was used to explain the results. The object of this study was to study the kinetic behavior of the platinum catalyst for deep oxidation. The conversions of MEK and toluene were increased as the inlet concentration was decreased and the reaction temperature was increased. The maximum deep conversion of MEK and toluene were 91.81% and 55.69% at $350^{\circ}C$, respectively. The ${\kappa}_3$ constant increases with temperature faster than the ${\kappa}_1$ constant, that is, the surface concentration of ($VOCs{\cdots}O$) is higher than that of (O) at higher temperature according to the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism. Also the activation energy of toluene was larger than MEK for toluene is aromatic compound which have stronger bonding energy.Therefore, the catalytic incineration kinetics of MEK and toluene with Mars-van Krevelen mechanism could be used as the basic data for industrial processes.

Al-MCM-48 molecular sieves (Si/Al = 25, 50, 75 and 100) were synthesized hydrothermally using cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide as the structure directing template. The orderly arrangement of mesopores was evident from the low angle X-ray diffraction patterns and TEM images. The catalytic performance was evaluated in the vapour phase isopropylation of phenol with isopropyl acetate. Phenol conversion decreased with increase in the Si/Al ratio of the catalysts. The major reaction product was 4-isopropyl phenol (selectivity: 78%). Delocalization of phenolic oxygen electron pair over the aromatic ring promoted para-selective alkylation. Such delocalization could be aided by the hydrophilic surface of the molecular sieves. Though ester was used as the alkylating agent, phenyl isopropyl ether was not formed

Catalytic reduction and oxidation of NO over polyacrylonitrile based activated carbon fibers (PAN-ACF) under various conditions were carried out to develop removal process of NO from the flue gas. The effect of temperature, oxygen concentration and the moisture content for the reduction of NO with ammonia as a reducing agent was investigated. The reduction of NO increased with the oxygen concentration, but decreased with the increased temperature. The moisture content in the flue gas affects the reduction of NO as the inhibition of the adsorption of the other components and the reaction on the surface of ACE For the oxidation of NO to $NO_2$ over PAN-ACF without using a reducing gas, it showed the temperature and the oxygen concentration of the flue gas are the important factors for the NO conversion in which the conversion increased with oxygen concentration and decreased with the temperature increase and might be the alternative option for the selective catalytic reduction process.

In this study, the air pollutant removal such as sulfur oxides was studied. A combination of the plasma discharge in the reactor by the reaction surface discharge reactor Calcium hydroxides catalytic reactor and air pollutants, hazardous gas SOx, changes in gas concentration, change in frequency, the thickness of the electrode, kinds of electrodes and the addition of simulated composite catalyst composed of a variety of gases, including decomposition experiments were performed by varying the process parameters. The experimental results showed the removal efficiency of 98% in the decomposition of sulfur oxides removal experiment when Calcium hydroxides catalysts and the tungsten(W) electrodes were used. It was increased 3% more than if you do not have the catalytic. If added to methane gas was added the removal efficiency increased decomposition.

Tageteserecta flower like zinc oxide nanostructures composed of hexagonal nanorods were synthesized via sonochemical method at room temperature. The synthesized nanomaterials exhibited wurtzite hexagonal phase structure with the single crystalline nature. The diameter of the individual nanorods that constitute the flower shaped zinc oxide structures is in the range of 120-160 nm. The sonication time effectively determined the morphological properties of the prepared materials. The catalytic activity of prepared zinc oxide nanostructures towards N-formylation reactions were evaluated without any surface modification and the nanostructures exhibited good reaction yield with the prompt recyclability behavior.

Ruthenium catalysts modified by selenium have been introduced as alternative materials to Pt in Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). RuSe nano-particles were synthesized on the Vulcan XC72R carbon supports via polyol method. The prepared catalysts were electrochemically and physically characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV,) linear sweep voltammetry, methanol tolerance test, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energydispersive Spectrometer (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Increasing the Se concentration up to 20 at % increased the electro-catalytic activity for the oxygen reduction. By increasing Se amount, Ru metallic form on the surface was increased. The $Ru_{80}Se_{20}$/C catalysts showed the highest oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity and outstanding methanol tolerant property in half cell tests as well as single cell test.

The Cu loading of a cubic $Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$-supported Cu catalyst was optimized for a single-stage water gas shift (WGS) reaction. The catalyst was prepared by a co-precipitation method, and the WGS reaction was performed at a gas hourly space velocity of $150,494h^{-1}$. The results revealed that an 80 wt% $Cu-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic performance and 100% $CO_2$ selectivity ($X_{CO}=27%$ at $240^{\circ}C$ for 100 h). The high activity of 80 wt% $Cu-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst is attributed to the presence of abundant surface Cu atoms and the low activation energy of the resultant process.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) has been widely used as a catalyst for the bifunctional activities of hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER and OER). Here, we investigated size dependent HER and OER performance of MoS₂. The smallest size (90 nm) of MoS₂ exhibits the lowest overpotential of -0.28 V at -10 mAcm^-2 and 1.52 V at 300 mAcm^-2 with the smallest Tafel slopes of 151 and 176 mVdec^-1 for HER and OER, respectively, compared to bigger sizes (2 ㎛ and 6 ㎛) of MoS₂. The better HER and OER performance is attributed to high electrochemical active surface area (6 × 10^-4 cm²) with edge sites and low charge transfer resistance (18.1 Ω), confirming that the smaller MoS₂ nanosheets have the better catalytic behavior.

$TiO_2$에 담지된 불균일 촉매상에서 ppm 수준으로 존재하는 수중 유기오염물질들을 제거하기 위한 모델반응으로 액상 trichloroethylene(TCE) 분해반응을 선정하였으며, 여러 반응변수의 동시제어가 가능하도록 디자인된 연속 흐름식 고정층 반응기 내에서 incipient wetness 기법으로 제조된 여러 전이금속 산화물 촉매들의 TCE 분해활성을 조사하였다. 선택된 반응조건에서 모델반응의 내부확산저항은 없었으며, $36^{\circ}C$의 반응온도에서 촉매표면에 흡착에 의한 액상 TCE 제거된 정도는 무시할 만하였고 촉매반응에 의해서만 제거될 수 있었다. TCE 제거반응에 대한 촉매들의 활성 및 반응시간에 따른 분해효율의 의존성은 사용된 금속 산화물 및 담지체의 종류에 따라 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 5 wt.% $CoO_x$/$TiO_2$ 촉매는 본 대상반응에 대하여 가장 우수한 활성을 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 반응시간의 경과 정도에 따라 TCE 분해효율이 점진적으로 증가하여 안정되는 전이구간의 존재를 확인할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 촉매활성의 반응시간 의존성은 반응 초기와 일정시간 경과 후의 $TiO_2$ 표면에 존재하는 $CoO_x$의 표면구조가 상이할 뿐만 아니라 반응시간 경과와 함께 활성이 더욱 높은 Co species의 표면노출을 암시하고 있다. $NiO_x$, $CrO_x$와 같은 금속 산화물 촉매들의 반응활성은 매우 낮은 수준이었다. $TiO_2$와 MFI를 담지체로 하여 각각 incipient wetness법과 이온교환법으로 제조된 $CuO_x/TiO_2$, Cu-MFI, $FeO_x/TiO_2$ 및 Fe-MFI의 TCE 제거효율을 반응시간의 함수로 살펴본 결과, Cu 촉매들에서 관찰되는 반응시간-분해효율 거동과는 다른 현상이 $FeO_x/TiO_2$와 Fe-MFI 촉매상에서 관찰되었다. $36^{\circ}C$의 반응온도에서 전반응시간 동안에 5 wt.% $FeO_x/TiO_2$ 촉매상에서 TCE 제거반응은 일어나지 않았으나, 1.2 wt.% Fe-MFI의 경우 반응 초기에 높은 제거율을 일정시간 동안 유지하다가 서서히 감소하는 비활성화 현상이 발생하였다. 이는 동일한 활성성분이 사용된다 할지라도 그 제조방법에 따라 촉매활성이 달라질 수 있음을 보여주고 있으며, 액상반응 중에 일어나는 활성성분의 redox cycle이 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음을 암시하고 있다. 가장 우수한 $CoO_x/TiO_2$ 촉매의 TCE 분해활성에 미치는 $CoO_x$ 담지량, 반응온도 등의 영향을 조사한 결과, 최적의 $CoO_x$ 담지량이 존재하였고 반응온도가 높을수록 TCE 제거효율은 높게 나타났다. 반응 중에 $CoO_x$ leaching에 의한 $CoO_x$의 손실이 확인되었으나 TCE 전환율에 영향을 미칠 정도는 아닌 것으로 판단되었다.

The NiSO4 supported on Fe2O3 catalysts were prepared by the impregnation method. No diffraction line of nickel sulfate was observed up to 30 wt %, indicating good dispersion of nickel sulfate on the surface of Fe2O3. The addition of nickel sulfate to Fe2O3 shifted the phase transition of Fe2O3 (from amorphous to hematite) to higher temperatures because of the interaction between nickel sulfate and Fe2O3. 20-NiSO4/Fe2O3 containing 20 wt % of NiSO4 and calcined at 500 oC exhibited a maximum catalytic activity for ethylene dimerization. The initial product of ethylene dimerization was found to be 1-butene and the initially produced 1-butene was also isomerized to 2-butene during the reaction. The catalytic activities were correlated with the acidity of catalysts measured by the ammonia chemisorption method.
