CO 가스 감지를 위한 두께 500-600 nm $In_2O_3$를 기저 물질로한 박막센서를 rf magnetron 방법을 이용하여 제작하였다. CO가스에 대한 감도 향상 및 -CH가 포함된 탄화수소 가스들과의 선택성을 높이기 위해 전이 금속인 Cobalt 촉매를 rf sputtering을 이용하여 초박막 형태로 0.7-2.8 nm 까지 두께를 조절하여 증착하고 $500^{\circ}C$ 열처리 후 가스 감도 특성을 조사하였다. CO에 대한 감도는 Co 두께 2.1 nm, 작동온도 $350^{\circ}C$에서 가장 우수하였고, $350^{\circ}C{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, Co (1.4 nm) 에서 $C_3H_8$에 대한 감도가 우수함을 알 수 있었다. 광전자 분석법 (x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy;XPS)을 통하여 초박막 Co가 표면이 $Co_2O_3$가 덮어진 CoO 형태로 존재함을 알 수 있었고, $(n-type)In_2O_3$-(p-type)CoO의 p-n junction 이 형성되었음을 확인하였다. 이러한 p-n junction type 가스센서에는 접합 경계면에서 형성된 전하 공핍층 (depletion layer)의 두께 변화에 따른 저항 변화에 의해 환원성 가스에 대한 감응 기구 (sensing mechanism)를 설명할 수 있었다.

Three kinds of lanthanum oxides ($La_2CO_3$) were synthesized from different methods and used as a catalyst in the transesterification of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) with glycerol for the synthesis of glycerol carbonate (GLC). Lanthanum oxide synthesized using a surfactant (S-La) showed a much higher GLC yield of 89.9% compared to other lanthanum oxides synthesized by calcination (C-La) and precipitation (P-La) at the reaction conditions of $90^{\circ}C$, DMC/glycerol = 2, and catalyst/glycerol = 5 wt %. The best catalyst was obtained when the surfactant/La weight ratio was 12. XRD study revealed that S-La has large amount of monoclinic and hexagonal $La_2O_2CO_3$ phases, which are assumed as active sites of the catalyst for the reaction.

We report Co-tetramethoxyphenylporphyrin on carbon particles (Co-TMPP/C) as a non-Pt catalyst for tri-iodide reduction in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The presence of well-dispersed carbon and cobalt source in the catalyst surface is confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. In the C 1s, Co 2p, and N 1s peaks measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the C-N, Co-$N_4$, and N-C are assigned to the component at 285.7, 781.8, and 401 eV, respectively. Especially, the Co-TMPP/C shows improved current density, diffusion coefficient, and charge-transfer resistance in the ${I_3}^-/I^-$ redox reaction compared to conventional catalysts. Furthermore, in the DSSCs performance, the Co-TMPP/C shows increased short circuit current density, higher open circuit voltage, and improved cell efficieny in comparison with Pt/C.

CTA(crude terephthalic acid)의 수소화 정제 반응이 고온의 회분식반응기에서 PdRu/CCM(carbon-carbonaceous composite material) 촉매 상에서 수행되었다. 반응 시간에 따른 In(4-CBA; 4-carboxybenzaldehyde)의 의존도가 선형성을 보임에서 수소화 정제는 1차 속도론을 따름을 알 수 있었다. 촉매량에 따른 반응 속도의 선형성에서 조사된 반응 조건은 정제 반응을 잘 대변할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 반응 전환율이 증가하면(4-CBA가 감소하면) 고체 및 액체의 p-toluic acid(p-tol)의 농도는 증가하였으나 벤조산(BA)의 농도는 크게 변하지 않았다. 4-CBA 농도가 대략 0.15% 이하일 때에는 PTA의 AT(alkalitransmittance)는 4-CBA농도에 반비례하며 이는 4-CBA의 수소화에 따라 발색물질도 제거 됨을 보여 준다. 4-CBA농도가 약 0.2% 이상이면 AT는 일정하였는데 이는 4-CBA 자체는 발색 효과를 가지지 않음을 보여준다. (0.3%Pd-0.2%Ru)/CCM 촉매는 0.5%Pd/C 상업 촉매에 비해 초기 활성은 낮으나, 상업 공장 반응기에서 사용한 후에는 오히려 큰 잔존 활성을 보였고 PdRu/CCM 촉매는 루테늄 함량이 약 $0.2{\sim}0.35%$ 일 때 활성의 상승효과를 보였다. PdRu/CCM 촉매는 0.5%Pd/C 상업 촉매를 대체할 가능성이 높음을 알 수 있다.

The effect of operating conditions (temperature and the partial pressures of H2 and CO) on the reaction rate of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) were investigated by carrying out experiments according to a Box-Behnken design (BBD), and were mathematically modeled by using response surface methodology (RSM). The catalyst used was a nano-structured cobalt/manganese oxide catalyst, which was prepared by thermal decomposition. The rate of synthesis was measured in a fixed-bed micro reactor with $H_2/CO$ molar feed ratio of 0.32-3.11 and reactor pressure in the range of 3-9.33 bar at space velocity of $3600h^{-1}$ and a temperature range of 463.15-503.15 K, under differential conditions (CO conversion below 2%). The results indicated that in the present experimental setup, the temperature and the partial pressure of CO were the most significant variables affecting reaction rate. Based on statistical analysis the quadratic model of reaction rate of FTS was highly significant as p-value 0.0002.

When fossil fuels are burned they produce CO gas because of incomplete combustion. If the CO gas reacts with the hemoglobin in the red blood cells, it may result in death or sequelae. Generally, the CO gas is eliminated in the form of the $$$CO_2$ gas by the oxidation reaction over the platinum catalyst. In this study, the electrochemical CO removal was investgated by using the solid electrolyte cell reactor, the type of which was represented as reactants$/Pt/Y_2O_3-ZrO_2/Pt/Air$. If the overpotential was applied to the platinum working electrode, the conversion could be changed with the overpotential applied. It was found that the oxidation rate could be increased 2.8 times higher than that of the normal condition, i. e. under open circuit conditions when $P_{co}/P_{O_2}$ was 0.5 and overpotential was 0.9V. From these results, it is concluded that the reactor used in this study is more efficient than conventional catalytic reactors.

프로페인($C_3H_8$)의 건식 개질($CO_2$ 개질)을 통한 합성 가스($H_2$와 CO 혼합물) 제조를 위해 $Ni-CeO_2/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 충진된 유전체 장벽 방전 플라즈마 반응기를 사용하였다. 열 또는 플라즈마에 의해 환원된 $Ni-CeO_2/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매를 사용하여 $C_3H_8/CO_2$ 비율 1/3, 총 유량 $300mL\;min^{-1}$에서 플라즈마-촉매 건식 개질을 수행하였다. 건식 개질에 대한 촉매 활성은 온도범위 $500{\sim}600^{\circ}C$에서 평가되었다. $Ni-CeO_2/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매 제조를 위해 전구물질 수용액(질산니켈, 질산세륨)으로 함침된 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$를 공기 분위기에서 소성시킨 후, $H_2/Ar$ 분위기에서 환원시켰다. 촉매 특성 조사에는 X-선 회절분석기(XRD), 투과전자현미경(TEM), 전계 방출 주사전자현미경(FE-SEM), 승온 탈착($H_2-TPD$, $CO_2-TPD$) 및 라만 분광기가 이용되었다. 열로 환원된 촉매와 비교하면 플라즈마 방전하에서 환원된 $Ni-CeO_2/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 개질 반응을 통한 합성 가스 생산에서 보다 우수한 촉매 활성을 나타내었다. 또한, 플라즈마로 환원된 $Ni-CeO_2/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$가 개질 반응의 문제점인 탄소퇴적 관점에서 장기 촉매 안정성을 보여주었다.

The fine Co powder with an average particle sie of less than 1$\mu\textrm{m}$ was prepared by hydrothermal reduction with hydrogen from Co(OH)2 slurry obtained by mixing the solutons of CoSO4$.$7H2O and NaOH. A method to control pH of the end solution around neutrality was proposed. The reduction rate was found to be a function of pH, temperature, hydrogen pressure and the amount of catalyst.

In this study, the reducing agent hydrazine and precipitator NaOH were used with $NiCl_2$ as a starting material in order to compound Ni-based material with spherical nano characteristics; resulting material was used as an anode for SOFC. Synthetic temperature, pH, and solvent amounts were experimentally optimized and the synthesis conditions were confirmed. Also, a 0 ~ 0.15 mole ratio of metal(Co, Fe) was alloyed in order to increase the catalyst activation performance of Ni and finally, spherical nano $Ni_{(1-x)}-M_{(x=0{\sim}0.15)}$(M = Co, Fe) alloy materials were compounded. In order to evaluate the catalyst activation for hydrocarbon fuel, fuel gas(10%/$CH_4$+10%/Air) was added and the responding gas was analyzed with GC(Gas Chromatography). Catalyst activation improvement was confirmed from the 3% hydrogen selectivity and 2.4% methane conversion rate in $Ni_{0.95}-Co_{0.05}$ alloy; those values were 4.4% and 19%, respectively, in $Ni_{0.95}-Fe_{0.05}$ alloy.

Diesel emission control is being addressed worldwide to help preserve the global environment. This paper mainly deals with the effects of oxidation catalysts to reduce emissions from the automotive heavy-duty diesel engine. Two types of the oxidation catalyst with different kinds of precious material were used. An 11 litter displacement diesel engine with turbocharger was operated to evaluate DOC with various engine speed, load conditions under D-13 mode cycle. We could propose the detail emission data of an automotive heavy-duty diesel engine and the characteristics of the conversion efficiency of the DOC under the D-13 mode. It was found that the mean conversion efficiencies of CO and THC were 49.7% and 61% under the D-13 mode test, respectively.
