Wet scrubber is widely used to remove toxic gaseous contaminants in various industries such as semi-conductor industry, display manufacturing industry and so on. In this study, to optimize a packed bed scrubber as one of typical wet scrubber size while keeping its performance, four different packing materials were investigated at different air flow rates, liquid-gas ratios and pH values. Ammonia, hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric acid were used as test gases to characterize the scrubber performance. Gas removal efficiency increased as the packing size decreased, which resulted in the increase of specific surface area. The increase of air flow rate led to the decrease of gas removal efficiency, while the increase of liquid-gas ratio led to the increase of gas removal efficiency. For the case of $NH_3$ gas, lower pH, and for the cases of HCl and HF, higher pH contributed to higher gas removal efficiency. Gas removal efficiency of a wet scrubber increased in the order of HCl < $NH_3$ < HF according to its water solubility.

Hydrogen Chloride is among the most problematic gases used in semiconductor process. It raises serious environmental and health problems due to its extreme toxicity. This study is to develop a method to effectively remove hydrogen chloride gas during the process by using various types of inorganic gas adsorption agents, which have not been attempted in the conventional methods. The removal efficiency of the gas was both qualitatively and quantitatively measured by a FT-IR spectrophotometer. The whole device for the measurement has been designed and built in our lab. The removal efficiencies of hydrogen chloride gas were compared between those tested resins; zeolite A, modified AgA zeolite, ZnO, and $AgMnO_3$. The experimental result revealed that ZnO showed the best efficiency that had removed 0.067 g of HCl per 1 g of the resin used.

The structural changes of the merocyanine monolayer LB (Langmuir Blodgett) films were investigated. These changes were compared with the typical changes of the molecular structures of merocyanine solutions. The structural changes of quinoid/benzenoid were attained by exposure to atmosphere gases (HCl gas, N $H_{3}$ gas). The photoisomerization was not observed for the monolayer LB film due to their state of $M_{trans}$. But we could obtain the cis/trans photoisomerization characteristics reversibly, after the films were changed to M $H^{+}$$_{trans}$ structure by exposure to HCl gas. We also found that the cis/trans photoisomerization of the LB monolayer films show the memory characteristics.s.

A pilot scale circulating fluidized boiler (CFB) for refuse derived fuel (RDF) is designed and constructed to demonstrate a performance of CFB technology for waste fuel utilization. The boiler has a design capacity of 6 MWth with $400^{\circ}C$ 38 ata steam generation performance. The maximum steam rate of the boiler was about 8 ton/h. The main component of the fuel was RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel) with high volatile contents and showed fast ignition and easy combustion. The pilot plant showed over 99.5% of combustion efficiency. Stable operation of RDF CFBC depended on the content of non combustion materials other than ash and fast removal of them. Emission level was under legal limit except that of HCl without external flue gas treatment facilities. Also about 60% of fuel chlorine was absorbed to fly ash particles. For HCl emission control flue gas treatment technology is required such as wet and dry scrubber in order to comply with Korean regulation.

$TiO_2$ nanopowders with anatase structure were firstly prepared by controlling the pH value of a precursor solution without any heat-treatment at room temperature. The prepared $TiO_2$ nanopowders were hydrothermally treated in 10M NaOH solution at $170^{\circ}C$. Then, the samples were washed in DI water or 0.1M HCl. The $TiO_2$ nanotubes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The gas sensitivity of $TiO_2$ nanotubes for toluene gas was also investigated. The results show that $TiO_2$ nanotubes can be prepared by hydrothermal treatment. The morphology of $TiO_2$ nanotubes prepared by 0.1M HCl washing is destroyed to some extent. $TiO_2$ nanotubes with DI water washing show better sensitivity than that with 0.1M HCl washing.

The dual dielectric films have been grown on single-crystalline silicon substrates with the thickness ranging from 125A to 180A at various gas and temperature conditions by using rapid thermal process that included independent nitridation step. The film characteristics and their dependence on the contents of the hydrochloric gas and the processing time have been studied. By the addition of the hydrochloric gas, the initial oxide thickness was significantly changed, but after sequential nitridation processes the thickness of the films was nevertheless a little bit varied within 10A. All the samples of the dual dielectric films show the increased breakdown voltages in proportion to the additive contents of the hydrochloric gas and also show the higher breakdown strengths than the thermal oxide and nitrided oxide films grown by the conventional furnance process or the rapid thermal nitridation process that was composed of the dependent nitridation cycles.

We present calculations for the 4-aminopyrimidine (4AP) – HCl and –HBr complexes. We predict that the charge separated (zwitterionic) form [4AP$H^+-Cl^-$] is not stable, but that [4AP$H^+-Br^-$] is stable enough for experimental detection in gas phase at low temperatures. The latter observation is attributed to smaller dissociation energy of HBr compared with HCl, and to “solvation” of HBr by the amino group in 4AP.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the characteristics of combustion by analyzing fuel gases from a combustion equipment with various combustion conditions for refuse-derived fuels (RDFs). CO gas is a parameter for indicating of incomplete combustion during a combustion process. The lowest CO gas was produced when the experiment conditions were m=2 under air-fuel condition and $800^{\circ}C$. $CO_2$ gas is a final product after complete combustions. The highest amount of $CO_2$ gas was produced when the experiment conditions were m=2 under air-fuel condition and $800^{\circ}C$. The highest level of $SO_2$ gas was produced in S.1 sample containing the highest sulfur. The highest level of NOx gas was produced in S.1 sample with the highest nitrogen content and air-fuel condition of m=2 under temperature of $800^{\circ}C$. HCl gas that is generated by reacting with metals catalyst through oxygen catalyst reaction during combustion process is a precursor of dioxin formation. The higher level of HCl gas was produced in the sample with higher chlorine content. The lowest level of HCl gas was produced when the experiment conditions were air-fuel condition of m=2 and $800^{\circ}C$. The lowest level of $NH_3$ gas was generated when the experiment condition was m=2 under air-fuel condition and after 3 minutes. Air-fuel condition is more important to create $NH_3$ gas than operating temperatures. Higher level of $H_2S$ gas was generated in S.1 sample with the higher sulfur content and was created in RDFs that contain higher mixture ratios of sewage sludge and food wastes. A result of combustion, gases and gases levels from the combustion of S.1 and S.2 were very similar to the combustion of a stone coal. As results of this research, when evaluating the feasibility of the RDFs, the RDFs could be used as auxiliary and main fuels.

Catalytic activity of $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$-based SCR catalyst was examined for the oxidation of gas-phase elemental mercury to oxidized mercury. Mercury species was not detected on the commercial SCR catalyst after the oxidation reaction of elemental mercury, regadless of the presence of HCl acting as oxidant and the reaction conditions. This suggests that elemental mercury oxidation by HCl could occur via a Eley-Rideal mechanism with gas phase or weakly-bound mercury on the surface of $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ SCR catalyst. The activity for mercury oxidation was significantly increased with the increase of $V_2O_5$ loading, which indicates that $V_2O_5$ is the active site. However, turnover frequency for mercury oxidation was decreased with the increase of $V_2O_5$ loading, indicating the activity for mercury oxidation was strongly dependent on the surface structure of vanadia species. The activity for oxidation of elemental mercury under SCR condition was much less than that under oxidation condition at the same HCl concentration and reaction temperature.
