$TiO_2$ and $xTiO_2-ySiO_2$ system photocatalysts were developed by sol-gel method based on the change of production parameters, and their structure of crystallization and the specific surface area was measured. Considering the efficiency of the ethanol decomposition using the catalyst, the conclusion was made as follows: 1) By means of X-ray analysis of $TiO_2$ powder that is obtained from water and Titanium alkoxide with various molar ratios, it is shown that structure of crystallization is a dominating structure and, on the other hand, the crystallization of rutile also partly exists. The specific surface area is at its maximum value at R=6, which is the molar ratio of water vs. alkoxide, whereas its value goes down as the molar ratio increases. In the reaction of using $TiO_2$ catalyst, the ethanol is decomposed into the extent of 15 ~30% in an hour and three hours are necessitated for 70% decomposition. 2) $TiO_2/SiO_2$ powder is developed from Titanium and Silicon alkoxide by a hetero-condensation process. The increase of SiO$_2$ contents causes the decrease of the degree of crystallization of the gel, whereas the specific surface area preferentially increases. In the decomposition reaction of the ethanol, the decomposition efficiency represents 25~60% in an hour. It is, however, examined that the efficiency inactively increases corresponding to the duration of reaction time. It is shown that more than 90% of ethanol is decomposed when reaction time is about three hours and the efficiency illustrates the maximum value for 60-$TiO_2/4O-SiO_2$ catalyst.

Benoxaprofen (2-(4-chlorophenyl)-${\alpha}$ -methyl-5-benzoxazole acetic acid) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that causes acute cutaneous phototoxicity. The ability of benoxaprofen (BXP) and its photoproduct, decarboxybenoxaprofen (DBXP) to photosensitize the decomposition of tryptophan was evaluated in various media such as water, ethanol and aqueous micellar dispersions of surfactants. The weak photosensitization of BXP in water was found to be enhanced in cationic CTAB micelle system, but yielded little difference in anionic SDS micelles. In ethanol solution, BXP was determined to photosensitize the decomposition of tryptophan, but no photosensitization was observed with DBXP. All of these results implicate that the anion radical of BXP may play a major role in the photosensitization in hydrophobic micellar phase, forming superoxide through interaction with oxygen as demonstrated by observation that the photosensitization was inhibited by superoxide dismutase.

In this study, TiO$_2$, the popular photocatalyst, was used to decompose ethanol. TiO$_2$was prepared by the sol -gel method and coated on pyrex stick. A 15W, UV-A lamp was used as the UV light source and il gas chromatography (HP 5890) was used to confirm the concentrations of ethanol, $CO_2$and the intermediates. Variation of preparation parameters and calcination temperature for TiO$_2$photocatalysts in the sol -gel method caused changes of ethanol decomposition activity. The best ethanol photodecomposition activity was obtained on the sample when prepared with 0.14 mol of HCI, a mol of ethanol and 1.3 mol of TTIP ware mixed in sol-gel process and calcinated at 50$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. Acetaldehyde was detected as an intermediate and decomposed to carbon dioxide and water at the end of the reaction.

카올린을 용해시킨 황산용액을 에탄올에 주입함으로써 알루미늄황산염의 침전물, $AI_{2}(SO_{4})_{3}\cdot18H_{2}O$을 제조하고, 그것의 열분해거동을 검토하였다. 합성된 고순도의 침전물은 약 $2\mu\textrm{m}$크기의 판상형태의 입자들로 구성되어져 있었다. 에탄올속으로 카올린을 용해시킨 황산용액의 주입속도를 증가시킴에 따라서 생성된 침전물의 결정사 크기는 감소하였다. 침전물의 탄수 및 탄황산에 대한 겉보기 활성화에너지는 각각 $11.9Kcal mol^{-1}$ 과 $48.2kcal mol^{-1}$ 이었다.

In this work, the effect of the initial concentration of methanol and ethanol, and the addition of oxygen molecules were discussed to improve the hydrogen generation using non-thermal plasma reactor effectively. In addition, the effect of ozone decomposition catalyst of manganese dioxide and its quantity was investigated. First, hydrogen concentration increased until an initial concentration of about 40,000[ppm] of methanol and thereafter it was saturated. Henceforth, hydrogen concentration decreased with increasing the oxygen percent on the carrier gas of nitrogen about both substances. Related with the effect of catalyst, it increased upto 60[g], but it was not changed largely after that. Consequently, it is confirmed that the hybrid process using plasma process and catalytic surface chemical reaction is a very promising way to increase the efficiency of hydrogen generation as investigated in this work.

친환경 추진제를 사용하는 추력기의 성능 향상을 위해서 미소량의 연료를 첨가하는 블렌딩 기법을 적용하였다. 친환경 추진제로는 90 wt.% 과산화수소를 사용하였으며, 혼합하는 연료는 에탄올을 사용하였다. 혼합비는 98 wt.% 과산화수소의 이론 성능을 상회하는 성능을 갖는 50으로 정하였다. 실험 결과 에탄올 블렌딩한 과산화수소의 반응기 온도가 과산화수소의 단열 분해 온도보다 높았다. 따라서 에탄올 블렌딩을 통해서 성능 증대를 꾀할 수 있었다. 또한 다양한 촉매 및 지지체의 비교를 통해 에탄올 블렌딩한 과산화수소 분해 및 연소에 적합한 촉매 조합을 파악하였다. 실험 결과 백금 촉매가 적합하다고 판단되며 이산화망간 촉매는 재사용 시 불안정성이 증가하였다. 고온 안정성이 높은 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$를 지지체로 사용할 경우 촉매의 분해 성능이 낮아 매우 불안정한 성능을 보였다.

에탄올의 산화반응중의 칼륨을 dope 한 산화아연의 전기전도의 변화를 250${\sim}350^{\circ}C$에서 측정하였다. 산화아연 상에서는 탈수소 및 탈수반응이 일어난다. 300$^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 $CO_2$의 생성과 이에 따르는 전기전도의 증가를 보였는데 이것은 아세트알데히드의 분해에 의해 생긴 CO의 산화반응에 의한 것이 아닌가 본다. 에탄올에 산소를 가하면 아세트알데히드의 생성은 증가하나 에틸렌의 생성에는 변화가 없었다. 이것은 주로 $O^-$로서 화학흡착 되어있는 산소가 에탄올 흡착과 이에 따른 탈수소 과정에 유리하게 작용하고 있는 것이 아닌가 한다.

A series of bimetallic Cu-Zn/$SiO_2$ catalysts were prepared via thermal decomposition of the as-synthesized $CuZn(OH)_4(H_2SiO_3)_2{\cdot}nH_2O$ hydroxides precursors. This highly dispersed Cu-solid base catalyst is extremely effective for hydrogenation of ethyl acetate to ethanol. The reduction and oxidation features of the precursors prepared by coprecipitation method and catalysts were extensively investigated by TGA, XRD, TPR and $N_2$-adsorption techniques. Catalytic activity by ethyl acetate hydrogenation of reaction temperatures between 120 and $300^{\circ}C$, different catalyst calcination and reduction temperatures, different Cu/Zn loadings have been examined extensively. The relation between the performance for hydrogenation of ethyl acetate and the structure of the Cu-solid base catalysts with Zn loading were discussed. The detected conversion of ethyl acetate reached 81.6% with a 93.8% selectivity of ethanol. This investigation of the Cu-Zn/$SiO_2$ catalyst provides a recently proposed pathway for ethyl acetate hydrogenation reaction to produce ethanol over Cu-solid base catalysts.

The gaseous carbon dioxide has been irradiated with Co-60 gamma-radiation in the presence and absence of various alcohols, and the radiolysis products analyzed by gas chromatography. Experimental results indicate that no detectable amount of carbon monoxide is formed when pure carbon dioxide is irradiated. By adding small quantities of alcohols to carbon dioxide, however, considerable amount of carbon monoxide, ketones, alcohols and other organic products have been detected. By adding 0.1% of methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-methyl-l-propanol, 2-butanol, and 2-methyl-2-propanol, G(CO) values obtained are 4.4, 4.5, 5.2, 4.4, 5.2, 5.0, 4.7 and 4.1, respectively. These high yields of carbon monoxide suggest that the oxidation reactions of carbon monoxide may be suppressed by scavenging oxygen atom with the alcohols. The main radiolytic decomposition reactions of the alcohols present in small quantity in carbon dioxide may be supposed to be the reactions with the oxygen atom produced by the radiolysis of carbon dioxide. The decomposition reactions seems to follow pseudo-first order kinetics with respect to the alcohols. The decomposition rate measured with 2-propanol is the fastest and that with 2-methyl-2-propanol the slowest. The mechanisms of the radiolytic decomposition reactions of the alcohols present in carbon dioxide are discussed on the basis of the experimental results of the present study.

제올라이트 촉매를 이용한 에탄올의 연소 성능 향상 가능성과 질소산화물 및 일산화탄소 배출 특성을 검증하기 위해 촉매 반응 생성물, 에탄올, 케로신을 연료로 사용하여 마이크로 가스터빈 엔진 구동실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 비교하였다. 촉매 반응 생성물의 추력은 케로신의 추력보다 낮았으나 에탄올을 사용했을 때에 비해 평균적으로 5% 정도 향상되었다. 촉매 반응 생성물의 질소산화물과 일산화탄소 배출량은 전반적으로 케로신에 비해 매우 낮게 측정되었다. 결론적으로 제올라이트 촉매를 이용하여 에탄올을 개질하는 경우, 에탄올의 친환경성을 유지하면서 엔진성능을 개선할 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.
