This paper describes design, fabrication, and application of the silicon based temperature controllable micro reactor. In order to achieve fast temperature variation and low energy consumption, reaction chamber of the micro reactor was thermally isolated by etching the highly conductive silicon around the reaction chamber. Compared with the model not having thermally isolated structure, the thermally isolated micro reactor showed enhanced thermal performances such as fast temperature variation and low energy consumption. The performance enhancements of the micro reactor due to etched holes were verified by thermal experiment and numerical analysis. Regarding to 42 percents reduction of the thermal mass achieved by the etched holes, approximately 4 times faster thermal variation and 5 times smaller energy consumption were acquired. The total size of the fabricated micro reactor was $37{\times}30{\times}1mm^{3}$. Microchannel and reaction chamber were formed on the silicon substrate. The openings of channel and chamber were covered by the glass substrate. The Pt electrodes for heater and sensor are fabricated on the backside of silicon substrate below the reaction chamber. The dimension of channel cross section was $200{\times}100{\mu}m^{2}$. The volume of reaction chamber was $4{\mu}l$. The temperature of the micro reactor was controlled and measured simultaneously with NI DAQ PCI-MIO-16E-l board and LabVIEW program. Finally, the fabricated micro reactor and the temperature control system were applied to the thermal denaturation and the trypsin digestion of protein. BSA(bovine serum albumin) was chosen for the test sample. It was successfully shown that BSA was successfully denatured at $75^{\circ}C$ for 1 min and digested by trypsin at $37^{\circ}C$ for 10 min.

Aligned multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were synthesized through the catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbons in a quartz tube reactor. In this study, we investigated the influence of gas flow rate of feedstock on the structure and growth rate of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes produced by the floating catalyst method. As the flow rate of feedstock increased, the nanotube diameter became smaller and the length became longer. Although the growth rate also increased with the raise of flow rate, the optimum flow rate of feedstock existed for the crystallinity of carbon nanotubes.

Methanol was synthesized by homogeneous and catalytic reactions of partial oxidation of methane. The effect of pressure, temperature and oxygen concentration on methanol synthesis was investigated. The catalyst used was Bi-Cs-Mg-Cu-Mo mixed oxide. The partial oxidation reaction was carried out in a fixed bed reactor at 20${\sim}$46 bar and $450{\sim}480^{\circ}C$ and oxygen concentration of 5.3${\sim}$7.7mol%. The results were compared with results of homogeneous reaction performed at the same conditions. Methane conversions of the homogeneous and catalytic reactions increased with temperature. Methanol selectivity of the homogeneous reaction decreased with increasing temperature. However, the methanol selectivity of catalytic reaction increased with temperature. For both homogeneous and catalytic reactions, the methane conversions were around 5%. This may be due to the low oxygen concentration. Methanol selectivity of the catalytic reaction was higher than that of homogeneous one.

Removable protective adhesives for automobiles were synthesized by an emulsion polymerization of monomers such as n-butyl acrylate (BA), n-butyl methacrylate (BMA), acrylonitrile (AN), acrylic acid (AA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA), in which AA and 2-HEMA were functional monomers. Potassium persulfate (KPS) was used as an initiator and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) was used as an emulsifier, and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch type reactor. Tensile strength, extension, peel strength, viscosity and solid content of the synthesized adhesives were tested. The optimum physical properties of the removable protective adhesives for automobiles were obtained with the composition of 0.43 mole BA, 0.57 mole AN, 0.21 mole BMA, 0.03 mole AA, and 0.03 mole 2-HEMA.

Acrylic adhesives for automobiles protection were prepared by emulsion polymerization. Monomers used were n-butyl acrylate(BA), acrylonitrile (AN), butyl methacrylate(BMA), glycidyl methacrylate(GMA), and acrylic acid (AA). Emulsifiers used were sodium lauryl sulfate and polyoxyethylene lauryl ether, which are an anionic emulsifier and a nonionic emulsifier respectively. Potassium persulfate was used as an initiator and polyvinyl alcohol was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch reactor at $70^{\circ}C$ and agitation speed was kept at 200 rpm. Water resistance, heat resistance, acid resistance, alkali resistance and smoke resistance were examined. As a result, when each 0.03 mole of GMA and AA was introduced, the adhesion properties and various above mentioned resistances of the prepared adhesives were satisfied the standard for automobiles.

Decolourization potential of white rot fungal organism, coriolus versicolor, was investigated in a batch reactor, for textile dye industry wastewater. The influence of process parameters like pH, temperature, agitation speed and dye wastewater concentration on the decolourization of textile dye wastewater was examined by using Response surface methodology (RSM). The maximum decolourization was attained at: pH- 6.8, temperature - $27.9^{\circ}C$, agitation speed - 160 rpm and dye wastewater concentration - 1:2. From the analysis of variance (ANOVA) results it was found that, the linear effect of agitation speed and dye wastewater concentration were significant for the decolourization of textile dye wastewater. At these optimized condition, the maximum decolourization and chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction was found to be 64.4% and 79.8% respectively. Various external carbon sources were tried to enhance the decolourization of textile dye wastewater. It was observed that the addition of carbon source enhances the decolourization of textile dye wastewater. Kinetics of textile dye degradation process was studied by first order and diffusional model. From the results it was found that the degradation follows first order model with $R^2$ value of 0.9430.

본 연구에서는 알칼리화합물의 첨가가 Co/NaY촉매의 반응성과 선택도에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 촉매는 제올라이트 NaY에 알칼리화합물을 첨가한 후 $Co_2(CO)_8$을 담지시켜 제조하였고, 온도 = 200∼$250^{\circ}C$, GHSV = 120∼$160hr^{-1}$, 압력 = 1atm, $H_2$/CO = 1 에서 반응하였다. 첨가된 알칼리이온의 염기도가 클수록 올레핀선택도, probability of chain growth(${\alpha}$), $CO_2$의 생성율은 증가하고 메탄의 생성율은 감소하였으며, 알칼리용액의 염기도가 클수록 반응활성은 증가하였다.

석탄가스화 복합발전(IGCC)의 탈황공정에 사용되는 비아연계 탈황제 중 경제성이 우수한 천연망간광석을 이용하여 황화수소 제거반응에 대한 특성을 연구하였다. $H_2S$와 천연망간광석 탈황제 사이의 반응에 대한 초기 반응 속도를 $400{\sim}800^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 열중량 분석기로 실험하였다. 그 결과로 황화수소 제거반응 시 초기 반응은 1차 반응이었고, 반응속도상수는 Arrhenius 식에 잘 적용할 수 있었다. 또한 황화반응이 확산에 의해 제어되는 조건에서 농도 구배가 선형을 나타내었으며, 이를 통하여 유효 확산 계수를 온도에 따른 Arrhenius식으로 나타내었다. 이 결과를 통하여 황화 반응 시 확산에 대한 활성화 에너지와 반응 빈도 인자를 구하였다.

자외선 조사하에서 $TiO_2$를 촉매로 하여 trichloroethylene의 광분해반응을 행하였다. 여러 가지 $TiO_2$ 촉매의 활성을 비교하였고, 반응조건에 따른 광분해 활성을 조사하였다. 또한 빛의 세기에 따른 분해활성과 반응물에 첨가된 물의 영향을 조사하였다. 여러 가지 $TiO_2$ 촉매에서 P-25가 가장 높은 활성을 보였고, anatase형이 rutile형보다 높은 활성을 보였다. 또한 반응물의 유속이 느릴수록 또한 초기농도가 낮을수록 trichloroethylene의 분해 반응 활성은 증가하였고, 산화제로서 공기를 사용하는 것이 효과적이었다. 한편 반응물에 첨가된 물은 촉매의 활성을 감소시켰고, 빛의 세기가 증가할수록 분해 반응속도가 증가하였으나 태양광에 의해서는 분해율이 매우 낮았다. trichloroethylene의 농도가 낮을 경우에는 촉매의 활성저하가 거의 일어나지 않았다.

A reactor-scale hydrogen (H2) production via the water-gas shift reaction of carbon monoxide (CO) and water was studied using the purple nonsulfur bacterium, Rhodopseudomonas palustris P4. The experiment was conducted in a two-step process: an aerobic/chemoheterotrophic cell growth step and a subsequent anaerobic $H_2$ production step. Important parameters investigated included the agitation speed. inlet CO concentration and gas retention time. P4 showed a stable $H_2$ production capability with a maximum activity of 41 mmol $H_2$ g $cell^{-1}h^{-1}$ during the continuous reactor operation of 400 h. The maximal volumetric H2 production rate was estimated to be 41 mmol $H_2 L^{-1}h^{-1}$, which was about nine-fold and fifteen-fold higher than the rates reported for the photosynthetic bacteria Rhodospirillum rubrum and Rubrivivax gelatinosus, respectively. This is mainly attributed to the ability of P4 to grow to a high cell density with a high specific $H_2$ production activity. This study indicates that P4 has an outstanding potential for a continuous H2 production via the water-gas shift reaction once a proper bioreactor system that provides a high rate of gas-liquid mass transfer is developed.
