Catalytic hydrogenation of carbon dioxide for the simultaneous synthesis of methanol and dimethyl ether (together called oxygenates) over a combination of methanol synthesis and methanol dehydration catalysts has been studied. Various methanol synthesis and methanol dehydration catalysts were examined for this reaction. The addition of promotors like $Ga_2O_3\; and\; Cr_2O_3$ to Cu/ZnO catalyst gave much more enhanced yield on the formation of oxygenates. From the results, the promotional effect of $Cr_2O_3$ has been explained in terms of increase in the intrinsic activity of Cu while that of $Ga_2O_3$ being increase in the dispersion of Cu. Among the methanol dehydration catalysts examined, the solid acids bearing high population of intermediate-strength acid sites were found to be very effective for the production of oxygenates. HY zeolite which contains strong acid sites produce small amount of hydrocarbons as by-products. However, CuNaY zeolite in which the presence of strong acid sites are minimum gives very high oxygenates yield without the formation of hydrocarbons.

The conversion of dimethyl ether(DME) has been carried out over $\gamma-alumina$, silica-alumina, and modified $\gamma-aluminal$ catalysts. Especially, the water effect has been investigated on purpose to develop a suitable catalyst for one-step synthesis of DME from $CO_2$ hydrgenation, The $\gamma-Al_2O_3$ modified with 1 wt% silica is more active and less deactivated by water than unmodified one. $CO_2has$ no effect on catalytic dehydration of methanol to DME.

Plant specimens for scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are commonly treated using standard protocols. Conventional fixatives consist of toxic chemicals such as glutaraldehyde, paraformaldehyde, and osmium tetroxide. In 1996, methanol fixation was reported as a rapid alternative to the standard protocols. If specimens are immersed in methanol for 30 s or longer and critical-point dried, they appear to be comparable in preservation quality to those treated with the chemical fixatives. A modified version that consists of methanol fixation and ethanol dehydration was effective at preserving the tissue morphology and dimensions. These solvent-based fixation and dehydration protocols are regarded as rapid and simple alternatives to standard protocols for SEM of plants.

Two types of catalyst samples were prepared, one sulfated zirconia and the other silica doped sulfated zirconia. The acidity tests indicate that sulfated zirconia doped with silica has higher concentration and strength of acidic catalyst sites than undoped sulfated zirconia. The acidic surface sites have been characterized using FTIR, NMR, pyridine adsorption, TPD, XRD and nitrogen adsorption. Doping with silica increased the concentration of surface Lewis and Brfnsted acid sites and resulted in generation of proximate acid sites.The activity test indicates that doping sulfated zirconia with silica increases both the acidity and catalytic activity for liquid phase dehydration of methanol at 413-453 K. Methanol is sequentially dehydrated to dimethyl ether and ethylene over both catalysts. Significant amounts of propylene are also formed over the silica-doped catalyst, but not over the undoped catalyst.

DMC (dimethyl carbonate)를 합성하기 위하여 ceria 계열의 촉매를 이용하여 반응 조건을 확인하는 연구를 수행하였다. 촉매의 합성 조건을 찾기 위하여 소성 온도와 Cu(II)의 함량을 조절하였고, 완성된 촉매는 NH₃-TPD를 이용하여 반응성(산점)을 확인하였다. DMC를 합성하기 위하여, 산화카르보닐화법(oxidative carbonylation, 일산화탄소와 산소를 메탄올과 반응)과 직접합성법(direct synthesis, 이산화탄소를 메탄올과 반응)을 적용하였다. 르샤틀리에의 원리에 따라, 반응 중 생성되는 물을 제거하여 반응성(메탄올 전환율)을 향상시키고자 하였으며, 이를 위해 화학적 탈수제(chemical dehydration agent)인 2-cyanopyridine를 사용하였다. 화학적 탈수 반응을 산화카르보닐화법에 적용하였을 경우, 메탄올 전환율은 15.1%에서 38.7%, DMC 선택도는 0%에서 98.8%까지 향상되었다. 이를 직접합성법에 적용하였을 경우, 메탄올 전환율은 1.0%에서 77.8%, DMC 선택도는 41.2%에서 100.0%까지 향상되었다.

Methanol dehydration to dimethyl ether (DME) has been investigated over ZSM-5 zeolites and compared with that of ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. Although the catalytic activity was decreased with an increase in silica/alumina ratio, the DME selectivity increased. H-ZSM-5 and NaH-ZSM-5 zeolites were more active for conversion of methanol to DME than ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. $Na^+$ ion-exchanged H-ZSM-5 (NaH-ZSM-5) shows higher DME selectivity than H-ZSM-5 due to the selective removal of strong acid sites.

The kinetics of the direct synthesis of DME was studied under different conditions over a temperature range of $220\~280^{\circ}C$, syngas ratio $1.2\~ 3.0$ All experiment were carried out over hybrid catalyst, composed to a methanol synthesis catalyst (Cu/ZnO/$Al_2O_3$) and a dehydration Catalyst ($\gamma$-Al_2O_3$) The observed reaction rate qualitatively follows a Langmiur-Hinshellwood type of reaction mechanism. Such a mechanism is considered with three reaction, methanol synthesis, methanol dehydration and water gas shift reaction. From a surface reaction with dissociative adsorption of hydrogen, methanol and water, individual reaction rate was determined

[ $250^{\circ}C$의 고온에서 수증기 선택 투과 특성을 가지는 silica 막을 메탄을 탈수에 의한 dimethyl ether (DME) 합성 반응에 분리막 반응기로 적용하였다. Silica 전구체로서 tetraethoxysilane (TEOS)을 이용하여 초음파 분무 열분해 및 기상화학 증착법(CVD)법 등에 의해 다공성 스테인레스 스틸(SUS)에 silica 막을 합성하였다. CVD법에 의해 합성한 silica막의 수증기 투과도 및 메탄올에 대한 분리계수 상관관계 trade-off 선이 열분해 silica 막보다 높이 존재하였다. 수증기 투과도가 $1.2\times10^{-7}\;mol\;{\cdot}\;m^{-2}\;{\cdot}\;S^{-1}\;{\cdot}\;Pa^{-1}$ 이상이고, 메탄올에 대한 분리계수가 10 이상의 성능을 가지는 분리막 반응기에 대해서 기존 반응기 대비 $20\%$ 이상 메탄을 전환율이 향상되었다. 고온 수증기 선택성 silica 막이 메탄을 탈수 반응에 의해 생성되는 수증기를 제거함으로서 촉매 활성 저하를 억제하여 반응 전환율을 개선시키는 막 반응기로서의 효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

디메틸에테르(이하 DME)는 환경에 친화적인 새로운 청정에너지이다. 또한 DME는 다양한 에너지원으로부터 제조 되어지며, 그 에너지원으로는 천연가스, 석탄, 바이오매스, 폐플라스틱 등이 있다. 이런 DME는 LPG와 매우 유사한 성질을 특징으로 가지고 있다. 이러한 결과로 DME는 LPG, 연료전지, 발전연료, 특히 디젤의 대체 연료로 고려되고 있으며, 2010년 대체 에너지로 기대되고 있다. DME 직접합성반응의 반응속도를 측정하기 위하여 서로 다른 조건인 온도 $220{\sim}280^{\circ}C$, 합성가스 비율 1.2~3.0에서 실험을 수행하였다. 모든 실험은 혼성촉매를 사용하여 수행하였으며, 혼성촉매는 메탄올 합성 촉매와 메탄올 탈수촉매가 포함되어 있다. 반응속도는 랭미어-힌쉘우드 타입의 반응 메커니즘을 따르며, 메탄올 합성반응, 메탄올 탈수반응, 수성가스 전환반응, 이 세 가지 반응의 메커니즘을 고려하였다. 각 반응의 반응속도는 촉매상의 표면반응과 수소와 메탄올, 그리고 물의 해리흡작으로 결정하였다.
