  • The combination of different concentrations of ZnSO4 in acidic solution as electrolyte in Zn-air batteries was investigated by Zn symmetrical cell test, half-cell and full cell tests. Using 1 M ZnSO4 + 0.05 M H2SO4 as electrolyte and MnO2 as air cathode catalyst with Zn foil anode, this combination had a satisfactory performance with balance of electrochemical activity and stability. Its electrochemical activity was matched to or even better than the PtRu catalyst in different current density. And its cycle life was improved (more than 100 cycles stable) by suppressing the growth of zinc dendrites on anode obviously. This electrolyte overcame the shortcomings of alkaline electrolyte that are easy to react with CO2 in the air, severely growth of Zn dendrites caused by uneven plating/stripping of Zn.

  • 본 논문에서는 대나무 섬유(BF)의 화학처리가 BF 및 폴리프로필렌(PP)/대나무섬유(BF) 복합체의 물성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하기 위해, 알칼리 처리 전후의 BF에 대해 ${\gamma}$-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS), ${\gamma}$-glycidoxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (GPS) 그리고 ${\gamma}$-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MRPS)을 이용하여 실란 상용화제를 처리하였다. BF의 화학처리에 따른 형태학적 특성은 광학현미경(OM)과 주사전자현미경(SEM)을 통해 확인하였으며, 화학 구조의 변화는 FT-IR과 EDS를 통해 확인하였다. 실란처리 시 BF의 열안정성이 증가함을 TGA를 통해 확인하였다. 실란 처리한 PP/BF 복합체의 굴곡강도와 충격특성이 개선되는 것을 만능시험기(UTM)와 충격강도시험기(Izod impact test)를 통해 확인하였고, PP/BF 계면 접착특성이 개선되는 것을 인장시험 후 시편의 파단면을 SEM 사진을 통해 확인하였다.

  • The interfacial chemical behavior, lattice exchange and dissolution, of $FeS_{(S)}$ as one of the important sulfide minerals was studied. Emphases were made on the surface characterization of hydrous $FeS_{(S)}$, the lattice exchange of Cu(II) and $FeS_{(S)}$, and its effect on the dissolution of $FeS_{(S)}$, and also affect some organic ligands on that of both Cu(II) and $FeS_{(S)}$. Cu(II) which has lower sulfide solubility in water than $FeS_{(S)}$ undergoes the lattice exchange reaction when Cu(II) ion contacts $FeS_{(S)}$ in the aqueous phase. For heavy metals which have higher sulfide solubilities in water than $FeS_{(S)}$, these metal ions were adsorbed on the surface of $FeS_{(S)}$. Such a reaction was interpreted by the solid solution formation theory. Phthalic acid(a weak chelate agent) and EDTA(a strong chelate agent) were used to demonstrate the effect of organic lignads on the lattice exchange reaction between Cu(II) and $FeS_{(S)}$. The $pH_{zpc}$ of $FeS_{(S)}$ is 7 and the effect of ionic strength is not showed. It can be expected that phthalic acid has little effect on the lattice exchange reaction between Cu(II) and $FeS_{(S)}$. whereas EDTA has very decreased the removal of Cu(II) and $FeS_{(S)}$. This study shows that stability of sulfide sediments was predicted by its solubility. The pH control of the alkaline-neutralization process to treat heavy metal in wastewater treatment process did not needed. Thereby, it was regarded as an optimal process which could apply to examine a long term stability of marshland closely in the treatment of heavy metal in wastewater released from a disussed mine.

  • Solid-state alkaline water electrolysis is a promising method for producing hydrogen using renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power. Despite active investigations of component development for anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE), understanding of the device performance remains insufficient for the commercialization of AEMWE. The study of assembled AEMWE devices is essential to validate the activity and stability of developed catalysts and electrolyte membranes, as well as the dependence of the performance on the device operating conditions. Herein, we review the development of catalysts and membranes reported by different AEMWE companies such as ACTA S.p.A. and Proton OnSite and device operating conditions that significantly affect the AEMWE performance. For example, $CuCoO_x$ and $LiCoO_2$ have been studied as oxygen evolution catalysts by Acta S.p.A and Proton OnSite, respectively. Anion exchange membranes based on polyethylene and polysulfone are also investigated for use as electrolyte membranes in AEMWE devices. In addition, operation factors, including temperature, electrolyte concentration and acidity, and solution feed methods, are reviewed in terms of their influence on the AEMWE performance. The reaction rate of water splitting generally increases with increase in operating temperature because of the facilitated kinetics and higher ion conductivity. The effect of solution feeding configuration on the AEMWE performance is explained, with a brief discussion on current AEMWE performance and device durability.

  • Efficient ditopic receptor, uranyl(II) N,N'-(ethylenedioxy)benzenebis(salicylideneimine) (3) for beryllium ion has been obtained upon functionalization of 1,2-ethylenedioxybenzene (1) with a uranyl-salphen (salphen = N,N'-phenylenebis(salicylideneimine)) unit. Binding affinities of the receptor, 3 in AN-DMSO (v/v 95:5) solution have been measured for alkali and alkaline earth metal ions by conductometry comparing 1. The results showed that both monotopic 1 and ditopic receptor 3 were selective for $Be^{2+}$ ions over other cations, while especially 3 that can complex both with cations (coordinated to basic oxygen of ethylenedioxybenzene) and anions (coordinated to the Lewis acidic uranyl center) results in an increase of the stability constants by a factor of $10^{2.42}$ with respect to 1. Furthermore, the $Be^{2+}$-3 interactions are demonstrated by $^1H$ NMR experiments in highly polar solvent medium, DMSO-$d_6$. Higher selectivities were also observed for $Be^{2+}$ when the ditopic receptor, 3 was incorporated into PVC membranes and tested as ion selective electrodes at neutral pH.

  • Cobalt-incorporated zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-8 was synthesized by a simple one-pot synthesis method at room temperature. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns and energy dispersive X-ray spectrum confirmed the formation of the bimetallic Co/Zn-ZIF structure. UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra revealed that the bimetallic ZIF had a lower HOMO-LUMO gap compared with ZIF-8 due to the charge transfer process from organic ligands to cobalt centers. A hydrolytic stability test showed that Co/Zn-ZIF is very robust in aqueous solution - the most important criterion for any material to be applied in photodegradation. The photocatalytic efficiency of the synthesized samples was investigated over the Indigo Carmine (IC) dye degradation under solar simulated irradiation. Cobalt incorporated ZIF-8 exhibited high efficiency over a wide range of pH and initial concentration. The degradation followed through three distinct stages: a slow initial stage, followed by an accelerated stage and completed with a decelerated stage. Moreover, the photocatalytic performance of the synthesized samples was highly improved in alkaline environment rather than in acidic or neutral environments, which may have been because in high pH medium, the increased concentration of hydroxyl ion facilitated the formation of hydroxyl radicals, a reactive species responsible for the breaking of the Indigo Carmine structure. Thus, Co/Zn-ZIF is a promising and green material for solving the environmental pollution caused by textile industries.

  • 락툴로오스는 기존에 화학적인 이성화법을 통해 생산해왔던 기능성 당으로서 프로바이오틱스나 장내균총 개선을 위한 의약품으로 활용되어 왔다. 최근 락툴로오스 화학전환법의 단점인 촉매제거와 부산물제거 에너지손실등의 문제를 해결할 수 있는 생물촉매를 이용한 락툴로오스 전환법이 대두되었다. 본연구에서는 유당의 낮은 용해도와 락툴로오스의 효율적전환을 위해 최적의 효소를 선별하여 무작위 돌연변이법으로 유전자를 개량하여 열내성이 $75^{\circ}C$까지 증진되고 활성이 1.3배 향상된 효소를 선별하였다. 이 효소를 정제하여 사용하는 대신 본 연구에서는 과량 발현시킨 대장균을 Ca-alginate로 고정화하여 $70^{\circ}C$에서 200 g/l의 유당과 회분식으로 반응시켜 43%의 전환 수율을 확인하였다. 반복회분식 실험에서 고정화된 담체는 비교적 안정적이었으며 4회 반복반응 후에도 80% 이상의 활성을 유지하고 있었다. 산업적인 방법을 개발하기 위해 고정화 담체를 이용한 반응기의 운전 최적화와 담체의 안정화를 증진시키는 추가적인 연구가 필요하지만, 본 연구에서는 열내성 특성을 이용하여 정제된 효소가 아닌 효소를 발현하는 세포자체를 고정화 시킴으로써 경제성있는 생산에 대한 방법론을 제시하였다.
