The formation of $C_2-C_{10}$ hydrocarbons from methanol over shape-selective ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts is studied. It seems that $C_2-C_5$ olefins formed from methanol via dimethylether are transformed further to higher hydrocarbons containing higher concentration of aromatics by the acid sites of ZSM-5. Unique cross linked channel structure and its hydrophobicity seems to be mainly responsible for its high activity of ZSM-5 catalyst for the conversion of methanol.

In this study, external condensation heat transfer coefficients (HTCs) of six flammable refrigerants of propylene (RI270), propane (R290), isobutane (R600a), butane (R600), dimethylether (RE170), and HFC32 were measured at the vapor temperature of $39^{\circ}C$ on a 1023 fpm low fin and Turbo-C tubes. All data were taken under the heat flux of $32\~116\;and\;42\~142kW/m^2$ for the low fin and Turbo-C tubes respectively. Flammable refrigerants' data obtained on enhanced tubes showed a typical trend that external condensation HTCs decrease with increasing wall subcooling. HFC32 and DME showed up to $30\%$ higher HTCs than those of HCFC22 due to their excellent thermophysical properties. Propylene, propane, isobutane, and butane showed similar or lower HTCs than those of HCFC22. Beatty and Katz' correlation predicted the HTCs of the flammable refrigerants obtained on a low fin tube within a mean deviation of $7.3\%$. Turbo-C tube showed the best performance due to its 3 dimensional surface geometry for fast removal of condensate.

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.

Two new dimeric phenolic conjugates, 2,3-di-O-dehydrodigallicmonocarboxyl-$({\alpha},{\beta})$-$^4C_1$-glucopyranose and ellagic acid 3,3'-dimethylether-4-0-$SO_3K$ were isolated from the debarked heart wood of Tamarix tetragyna (Tamaricaceae) along with the known phenolic compounds, isoferulic acid, ferulic acid, gallic acid, gallic acid 4-methyl ether, syringic acid, ellagic acid 3,3'-dimethyl ether and ellagic acid. All structures were determined mostly by ESI-MS, ID and 2D-NMR spectroscopy.

Chain propagation and chain transfer in anionic polymerization of hexafluoropropylene oxide were investigated under various reaction conditions such as the stabilization of reaction temperature, the amount of hexafluoropropylene solvent, and the feeding rate of hexafluoropropylene oxide monomer. Anionic initiator for the polymerization was synthesized from cesium fluoride and hexafluoropropylene oxide in tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether. It was possible to obtain a high molecular weight poly(HFPO) ($M_w$ 14800) using the anionic initiator in conditions of stabilized reaction temperature, and optimized addition of solvent and monomer feeding (HFP/initiator mole ratio=31.5 and HFPO feeding rate=11.67 g/hr). Otherwise, chain transfer reaction in anionic polymerization was increased. From the results of molecular weight in various reaction conditions, it was found that chain propagation and chain transfer in anionic polymerization of HFPO were very sensitive to reaction conditions.

Recently, lots of researchers have been attracted to develop various alternative fuels and to use renewable fuels in order to solve the exhaust emission problems. DME (Dimethylether) is synthetic fuel, and can be produced from natural gas, coal and biomass. The emission is clean because it contains little sulfur and aromatic components In this study, the fuel was tested to investigate the applicability as an alternative fuel for diesel. This study was carried out by comparing the exhaust emissions and performance of diesel engine with DME, ULSD (ultra low sulfur diesel), LSD (low sulfur diesel) respectively. In order to measure regulated emissions, CO, $NO_{3}$, HC from vehicle different fuel types were used on chassis dynamometer CVS (constant volume sampler)-75 mode and EPA TO-I1A method was chosen for aldehydes analysis.

We developed a water-selective ceramic composite membrane for use as a dehydration membrane reactor for dimethylether (DME) synthesis from methanol. The membranes were modified on the porous stainless steel support by the sol-gel method accompanied by a suction process. The improved membrane modification process was effective in increasing the vapour permselectivity by removal of defects and pinholes. The optimized alumina/silica composite membrane exhibited a water permeance of 1.14${\times}$10$^{-7}$ mol/$m^2$.sec.Pa and a water/methanol selectivity of 8.4 at permeation temperature of 25$0^{\circ}C$. The catalytic reaction for DME synthesis from methanol using the membrane was performed at 23$0^{\circ}C$, and the reaction conversion was compared with that of the conventional fixed-bed reactor. The reaction conversion of the membrane reactor was much higher than that of the conventional fixed-bed reactor. The reaction conversion of the membrane reactor and the conventional fixed-bed reactor was 82.5 and 68.0%, respectively. This improvement of reaction efficiency can last if the water vapour produced in the reaction zone is removed continuously.

Reduced chemical kinetics mechanism has been derived, which can be applicable for autoignition model of hydrocarbon fuels, and contains 23 reactions and 18 species. The present model is validated with the experimental data, where the ignition delays of several hydrocarbon fuels, such as n-heptane, i-octane, n-decane and DME(dimethylether) are measured as equivalence ratios are varied. Especially, the effects of different fuels on ignition delays can be explained by changing the rate constants of three reactions among the present model. As a result, the proposed model can be applicable to two stage ignition model of Diesel combustion.
