In this paper, we fabricated $SnO_2$ composite ceramics doped with 0~20mol% $SnO_2$ of bulk type to investigate the CO and $H_2$ gas sensitivity in various composition, temperature, and concentration of CO and $H_2$ gas. At the temperature range from $100^{\circ}C\sim425^{\circ}C$, the measured 1000ppm and 250ppm CO gas sensitivities of $SiO_2-SnO_2$composite ceramics were about 1.0~7.6 and 1.0~5.6, respectively. These values were about 1.0~1.5 times larger than pure $SnO_2$. The maximum 1000ppm CO gas sensitivity of $SiO_2-SnO_2$composites were measured around $325^{\circ}C$. At the temperature range from $270^{\circ}C\sim380^{\circ}C$, the 1000ppm and 500ppm $H_2$gas sensitivities of $SiO_2-SnO_2$ composites were about 2.9~21.2 and 2.1~11.3, respectively. Also the maximum 1000, 500 ppm $H_2$ gas sensitivities of samples were measured around.

Etch characteristics of SF6/CI2 electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasmas have been investigated. Surface reaction of gas plasma with polysilicon was also analysed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). At the same time, the relationship between surface reaction and the etched profile of polysilicon was examined using XPS. The etch rate of polysilicon and oxide increases with increasing flow rate of SF6 in the SF6/CI2 gas mixture, and tis selectivity also increase also increase. It was also found that as increasing flow rate of SF6 in the SF6/CI2 gas mixture, the atomic% of chlorine detected at surface region decrease, but F and S contents increase. At the same time, when the mixing ratio of SF6 gas increases, the anisotropy of etched polysilicon is sharply decreased in the 0%~10% range of the SF6 mixing ratio, but is rarely varied in the range over 10%, in spite of the large variations in flow rates. It can be explained that the bonding of S-Si due to SiSx(x$\leq$2) compound formed on the etched surface suppress the formation of Si-Cl and 'or Si-F bonding in the silicon etching.

Atmospheric environmental problems have a major impact on human health and lifestyle. In humans, inhalation of nitrogen oxides causes respiratory diseases, such as bronchitis. In this paper, thermal analysis of a gas sensor was carried out to design and fabricate a wearable nylon-yarn gas sensor for the detection of NO_x gas. In the thermal analysis method, the thermal diffusion process was analyzed while operating the sensors at 40 and 60℃ to secure a temperature range that does not cause thermal runaway due to temperature in the operating environment. Thermal diffusion analysis was performed using the COMSOL software. The thermal analysis results could be useful for analyzing gas adsorption and desorption, as well as the design of gas sensors. The thermal energy diffusion rate increased slightly from 10.05 to 10.1 K/mm as the sensor temperature increased from 40 to 60℃. It was concluded that the sensor could be operated in this temperature range without thermal breakdown.

Hydrogen which can be produced through reforming process of hydrocarbon fuel is supplied into anode side of fuel cell system. In the fuel cell, only 70% of hydrogen is consumed through electrochemical reaction and 30% hydrogen passed by as anode off gas. When electrical output of fuel cell is within range of 1.0 to 3.0kW, burner for the reformer uses only anode off gas. And it uses mixture gas of anode off gas and LNG within range of 3.5 to 5.0kW in electrical output. CHEMKIN 4.1 program's Premixed code was used for calculating the properties of each gas. Results show that burning velocity and adiabatic flame temperature are 34.4cm/s, 1681.7K at equivalence ratio 0.8 within range of 1.0kW to 3.0kW and for cases of 3.5kW, 5.0kW, of electrical output, burning velocity and adiabatic flame temperature represent 30.5, 29.8cm/s and 1722.8, 1750K respectively. CO shows the lowest emission index at equivalence ratio 0.8 and NOx reveals the highest emission index at equivalence ratio 1.

Global concern over climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, has prompted widespread interest in sustainable solutions. In the agricultural sector, biochar has emerged as a focal point for mitigating these emissions. This study investigated the impact of continuous biochar application on CO₂ and N₂O emissions during the spring cabbage cultivation period. Greenhouse gas emissions in the biochar treatment groups (soils treated with 1, 3, and 5 tons/ha of rice husk biochar) were compared to those in the control group without biochar. During the spring cabbage cultivation period in 2022, the total CO₂ emissions were in the range of 71.6-119.0 g/m² day, and in 2023, with continuous biochar application, they were in the range of 71.6-102.1 g/m² day. The total emissions of N₂O in 2022 and 2023 were in the range of 11.7-23.7 and 7.8-19.9 g/m² day, respectively. Overall, greenhouse gas emissions decreased after biochar treatment, confirming the positive influence of biochar on mitigating greenhouse gas release from the soil. Nevertheless, further research over an extended period exceeding five years is deemed essential to delve into the specific mechanisms behind these observed changes and to assess the long-term sustainability of biochar's impact on greenhouse gas dynamics in agricultural settings.

수소 가스는 신 재생 에너지원으로서, 에너지의 발생과정에서 오염물질의 배출이 없는 친환경적인 에너지원이다. 그러나 수소 가스는 인화 에너지가 낮으며, 무색, 무취의 화염 전파성과 폭발성이 강한 매우 위험한 물질 중 하나이다. 수소 가스의 검출을 위한 다양한 기술이 있으나, 대부분 센서를 이용하여 대기 중의 수소 가스를 수집하여 측정하는 근거리 측정 기술이 대부분이다. 수소 가스 측정 기술 중 하나인 라만 라이다 장치는 수소 가스의 강한 라만 산란 현상을 이용하여 원거리에서 수소 가스 농도 검출 및 분포를 계측할 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 넓은 영역에서(2~50 m) 누출된 수소 가스의 원거리 측정을 위한 on-axis 형태를 갖는 라만 라이다 장치를 개발하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 개발된 수소 가스 원거리 탐지 거리가 향상된 라만 라이다 장치의 성능을 검증하기 위하여, 수소 가스 폭발을 방지 및 농도 변화가 가능한 가스 챔버를 이용하여 라만 라이다 장치로부터 50 m 거리에 위치한 수소 가스 농도 측정 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 개발된 라만 라이다 장치를 이용하여 50 m 거리에 위치한 0.66 Vol.%의 수소 가스 검출이 가능함을 증명하였다.

We investigated the detection properties of nitrogen monoxide (NO) gas using transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ thin film gas sensors. The $CuAlO_2$ film was fabricated on an indium tin oxide (ITO)/glass substrate by pulsed laser deposition (PLD), and then the transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ active layer was formed by annealing. Structural and optical characterizations revealed that the transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ layer with a thickness of around 200 nm had a non-crystalline structure, showing a quite flat surface and a high transparency above 65 % in the range of visible light. From the NO gas sensing measurements, it was found that the transparent p-type $CuAlO_2$ thin film gas sensors exhibited the maximum sensitivity to NO gas in dry air at an operating temperature of $180^{\circ}C$. We also found that these $CuAlO_2$ thin film gas sensors showed reversible and reliable electrical resistance-response to NO gas in the operating temperature range. These results indicate that the transparent p-type semiconductor $CuAlO_2$ thin films are very promising for application as sensing materials for gas sensors, in particular, various types of transparent p-n junction gas sensors. Also, these transparent p-type semiconductor $CuAlO_2$ thin films could be combined with an n-type oxide semiconductor to fabricate p-n heterojunction oxide semiconductor gas sensors.

카본블랙 제조공정에서 발생되는 부생가스의 폭발한계와 폭발특성을 연구하였다. 부생 가스의 75% 가량은 수분과 질소였으며 가연성 성분으로는 수소를 비롯한 메탄, 아세틸렌, 일산화탄소 등을 포함하고 있어 연료로 활용하고 있다. 부생 가스중의 가연성 가스 성분들에 의해 공정상에 폭발 및 연소의 위험이 있다. 실험결과 얻어진 폭발한계범위는 17.1%에서 70.7%였으며 르샤틀리에 법칙을 이용하여 예측한 값과는 상당한 차이가 있었다. 또한 폭발특성 실험 결과 폭발압력은 최대 $5.4kg/cm^2$이었고 평균 폭발압력 상승속도는 $39.2kg/cm^2/s$였다. 이러한 결과들은 부생 가스의 취급 및 이용에 따른 폭발이나 화재 사고시 공정과 시설 등에 치명적인 손상을 입힐 수 있으므로 가스폭발 방지 및 방호조치가 필요하다.
