sothemal reduction at $50^{\circ}C$ using $Pt/MoO_3$ or $Pt/MoO_3/SiO_2$ made by dry impregnation or physical mixture of $Pt^{\circ}$ and $MoO_3$ demonstrated that the $H_2$ uptake vis $H_2$ spillover from Pt into $MoO_3$ was enhanced as calcination temperature was increased. Surface area of exposed Pt crystallites measured by CO chemisorption was decreased with higher calcination temperature. In addition, TEM showed that $MoO_x$ overlayers were formed on Pt crystallites after calcination at $400^{\circ}C$. Consequentially, it was found that this increased active contact sites between Pt and $MoO_3$ due to surface morphological change was one of the dominant factors for this increased $H_2$uptake via $H_2$ spillover from Pt crystallites into $MoO_3$.

The effect of $O_3$, $O_3/pH$, and $O_3/H_2O_2$, $O_3/UV$, and $H_2O_2/UV$ advanced oxidation process(AOP) were investigated for the treatment of tetrachloroethylen(PCE) at various condition. The removal efficiency of 10, 20, and 30ppm PCE by ozonation were almost same, only about 60%. And pseudo first-order rate constants, ko for overall oxidation was about 0.097($min^{-1}$). In the $O_3/pH$ AOP experiment for the 20ppm PCE, the removal rate of PCE increased with the increase of pH. However, mineralization rate of PCE at pH 7 was higher than at pH 10. In the $O_3/H_2O_2$ AOP, the removal rate of PCE was the highest at peroxide-to-ozone dosage ratio of about 0.9, which PCE was removed over 99.95%. Despite 42% of PCE was directly photolyzed by the UV irradiation, the removal efficiency of PCE by $O_3/UV$ AOP was only about 70%. In $H_2O_2/UV$ AOP, the removal efficiency of PCE increased to about 98% in proportion to the $H_2O_2$ injection concentration at constant UV intensity of 5W/l.

A general synthetic method to make $Fe_3O_{4-{\delta}}$ (activated magnetite) is the reduction of $Fe_3O_4$ by $H_2$ atmosphere. However, this process has an explosion risk. Therefore, we studied the process of synthesis of $Fe_3O_{4-{\delta}}$ depending on heat-treatment conditions using $FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ in Ar atmosphere. The thermal decomposition characteristics of $FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ and the ${\delta}$-value of $Fe_3O_{4-{\delta}}$ were analyzed with TG/DTA in Ar atmosphere. ${\beta}-FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ was synthesized by precipitation method using $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ and $(NH_4)_2C_2O_4{\cdot}H_2O$. The concentration of the solution was 0.1 M and the equivalent ratio was 1.0. ${\beta}-FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ was decomposed to $H_2O$ and $FeC_2O$4 from $150^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. $FeC_2O4$ was decomposed to CO, $CO_2$, and $Fe_3O_4$ from $200^{\circ}C$ to $250^{\circ}C$. Single phase $Fe_3O_4$ was formed by the decomposition of ${\beta}-FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ in Ar atmosphere. However, $Fe_3C$, Fe and $Fe_4N$ were formed as minor phases when ${\beta}-FeC_2O_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ was decomposed in $N_2$ atmosphere. Then, $Fe_3O_4$ was reduced to $Fe_3O_{4-{\delta}}$ by decomposion of CO. The reduction of $Fe_3O_4$ to $Fe_3O_{4-{\delta}}$ progressed from $320^{\circ}C$ to $400^{\circ}C$; the reaction was exothermic. The degree of exothermal reaction was varied with heat treatment temperature, heating rate, Ar flow rate, and holding time. The ${\delta}$-value of $Fe_3O_{4-{\delta}}$ was greatly influenced by the heat treatment temperature and the heating rate. However, Ar flow rate and holding time had a minor effect on ${\delta}$-value.

The hydrogenolysis of cellulose into polyols was examined over Pt/$Cs_xH_{3-x}PW_{12}O_{40}$ catalysts containing different Cs fractions. The surface area and Pt dispersion of Pt/$Cs_xH_{3-x}PW_{12}O_{40}$ catalysts were found to increase with Cs content. Similar polyol yields were obtained over Pt/$Cs_xH_{3-x}PW_{12}O_{40}$ catalysts irrespective of their Cs content. The catalytic activity of Pt/$Cs_xH_{3-x}PW_{12}O_{40}$ was comparable to that of Ni/W/SBA-15 and combined catalytic systems such as Pt/AC+$H_3PW_{12}O_{40}$ and Pt/AC + $Cs_{3.0}PW_{12}O_{40}$. Some polyanion species were found to leach from the Pt/$Cs_xH_{3-x}PW_{12}O_{40}$ catalyst during the course of the reaction.

The tetradentate schiff base ligand, N,N'-bis(salicylaldehyde)-m-phenylenediimine has been prepared from salicylaldehyde and m-phenylenediamine by Duff-reaction. The schiff base ligand has been reacted with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) to form new complexes; Cu(II)$[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}2H_2O, Ni(II)[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}2H_2O, Co(III)[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}2H_2O and Zn(II)2[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}4H_2O$. It seems to be that the Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes have hexacoordinated configuration with the schiff base and two molecules of water, while Zn(II) complex has tetracoordinated configuration with the schiff base and four molecules of water. The mole ratio of tetradentate schiff base ligand to Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) are 1:1 but to Zn(II) is 1:2. These complexes have been identified by visible spectra, infrared spectra, T.G.A. and elemental analysis.

Hyperthermal ion scattering experiments were conducted with low kinetic energy (<35 eV) cesium ion beams to analyze the UV-photolyzed water-ice films. Neutral molecules (X) on the surface were detected as cesium-molecule ion clusters ($CsX^+$) which were formed through a Reactive Ion Scattering (RIS) process. Ionic species on the surface were desorbed from the surface via a low energy sputtering (LES) process, and were analyzed [1]. Using these methods, the thermal stability of hydronium ion ($H_3O^+$) that was produced by UV light was examined. As the thermal stability of $H_3O^+$ is related with the reaction, $H_3O^+$ + OH + $e^-$ (or $OH^-$) ${\rightarrow}$ $2H_2O$, which is similar or same with the reverse reaction of the auto-ionization of water, the result from this work would be helpful to understand the auto-ionization of $H_2O$ in water-ice that has not been well-understood yet. However, as $H_3O^+$ was not detected through a LES method, the titration experiment of $H_3O^+$ with methylamine ($CH_3NH_2$, MA), MA + $H_3O^+\;{\rightarrow}\;MAH^+$ + $H_2O$, was conducted. In this case, the presence of $MAH^+$ indicates that of $H_3O^+$ in the ice. Thus the pristine ice was photolyzed with UV light for a few minutes and this photolyzed ice was remained at the certain temperature for minutes without UV light. Then MA was adsorbed on that surface so that the population of $H_3O^+$ was found. From the calibration experiments, the relation of $MAH^+$ and $H_3O^+$ was found, so that the thermal stability of $H_3O^+$ can be investigated [2].

The time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) method has been carried out to investigate the excitedstate hydrogen-bonding dynamics of phenol-$(H_2O)_2$ complex. The geometric structures and infrared (IR) spectra in ground state and different electronically excited states ($S_1$ and $T_1$) of the hydrogen-bonded complex have been calculated using the density functional theory (DFT) and TDDFT method. A ring of three hydrogen bonds is formed between phenol and two water molecules. We have demonstrated that the intermolecular hydrogen bond $O_1-H_2{\cdots}O_3-H$ of the three hydrogen bonds is strengthened in $S_1$ and $T_1$ states. In contrast, the hydrogen bond $O_5-H_6{\cdots}O_1-H$ is weakened in $S_1$ and $T_1$ states. These results are obtained by theoretically monitoring the changes of the bond lengths of the hydrogen bonds and hydrogen-bonding groups in different electronic states. The hydrogen bond $O_1-H_2{\cdots}O_3-H$ strengthening in both the $S_1$ and $T_1$ states is confirmed by the calculated stretching vibrational mode of O-H (phenol) being red-shifted upon photoexcitation. The hydrogen bond strengthening and weakening behavior in electronically excited states may exist in other ring structures of phenol-$(H_2O)_n$.

The dehumidifiers were prepared by the impregnation of the zeolites such as MCM 48, USY, beta on the silica ceramic paper. Their capacities for $H_2O$ absorption and regeneration of the bed were tested in a fixed bed reactor system. The $H_2O$ absorption capacities of the dehumidifiers impregnated with the zeolites were $1.5{\sim}2$ times higher than those without the zeolites. Especially, the humidifier using MCM 48 and colloidal silica showed an excellent capacity (42.1g $H_2O/g$ absorbent). It was found that the $H_2O$ absorption capacities of the dehumidifiers were improved because the amount of silica gel, the main component in absorbing $H_2O$, increased due to the large surface area and pore volume of the zeolites. In addition, $H_2O$ was easily desorbed from the dehumidifiers with zeolites at $80^{\circ}C$ of regeneration temperature and the desorption amount of $H_2O$ was the same as that absorbed. It was confirmed that the $H_2O$ absorption capacities of the dehumidifiers impregnated with zeolite were maintained without deactivation through the repeated cyclic experiments.

$K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ in the $K_2O-Li_2O-Al_2O_3$ ternary system was synthesized using aluminum nitrate solution as a starting material. For the synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$, raw materials with chemical composition of $0.84K_2O{\cdot}0.082Li_2O{\cdot}5.2Al_2O_3$ were mixed in solution state. The effects of dispersant and solution-pH were investigated in minimizing the particle size and on the synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$. Ethanol was used for a dispersant, and $NH_4OH$ solution and nitric acid were added for pH adjustment. The solution pH was increased from 1.0 to 7.5 by 0.5 increments. Each sample was calcined at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and characterized with X-ray diffraction and particle size analyzer. The pH of solution significantly effected both particle size and phase formation, while the addition of ethanol only effected particle size. The synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ was favored by addition of nitric acid (for pH control).
