  • Nitrous oxide is a typical greenhouse gas which is produced from various organic or fossil fuel combustion processes as well as chemicals producing plants. $N_2O$ has a global worming potential of 310 times that of $CO_2$ on per molecule basis, and also acts as an ozone depleting material in the stratosphere. However, its removal is not easy for its chemical stability characteristics. Most SCR processes with several effective reducing agents generally require the operation temperature higher than $450^{\circ}C$, and the catalytic conversion becomes decreased significantly when NOx is present in the stream. Present experiments have been performed to obtain basic design data of actual application concerning the effects of $SO_2$ and $NH_3$ on the interim and long term activities of $N_2O$ reduction with CO over the mixed metal oxide (MMO) catalyst derived from a hydrotalcite-like compound precursor. The MMO catalysts used in the experiments, have shown prominent activities displaying full conversions of $N_2O$ near $200^{\circ}C$ when CO is introduced. The presence of $SO_2$ is considered to show no critical behavior as can be met in the $NH_3$ SCR DeNOx systems and the effect of $NH_3$ is considered to play as mere an impurity to share the active sites of the catalysts.

  • 양자점 Laser Diode(LD)는 낮은 문턱전류, 높은 미분 이득을 갖으며 또한 온도변화에도 안정적이기 때문에 광통신분야에서 광원으로 양자점 LD를 사용하기 위한 연구가 계속되고 있다. 양자점은 fill factor가 낮기 때문에 양자점의 밀도를 높이거나 양자점을 적층 성장하여 fill factor를 높인다. 그러나 양자점을 적층 성장하면 각 층간의 응력, 수직적 결합, 전기적인 결합이 생기며 이는 양자점의 전기적, 광학적 특성에 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD)을 이용하여 InP기판 위에 자발성장 법으로 InAs 양자점을 다주기 성장하였으며 photoluminescence (PL)을 이용하여 광학적 특성을 분석하였다. precursor는 trimethylindium (TMI), trimethylgalium (TMGa), $PH_3$, $AsH_3$를 사용하였으며 carrier gas는 $H_2$를 사용하였다. InAs 양자점은 1100 nm의 파장을 갖는 InGaAsP barrier 위에 성장하였고, InAs와 InGaAsP의 성장온도는 $520^{\circ}C$이며 InAs 양자점 성장시 V/III 비는 3.66으로 일정하게 유지하였다. 그림 1은 양자점 성장시간을 0.11분으로 고정하여 3주기(A), 5주기(B), 8주기(C) 성장한 구조이며 그림 2는 양자점 성장시간을 3주기마다 0.01분씩 줄여가며 3주기는 0.11분${\times}$3(D), 6주기는 0.11분${\times}$3+0.10분${\times}$3(E), 9주기는 0.11분${\times}$3+0.10분${\times}$3+0.09분${\times}$3(F) 으로 성장한 성장구조이다. 각 성장한 시료는 PL을 이용하여 파장과 반치폭을 측정하였다. 그림 3은 양자점 성장시간을 고정한 시료 A, B, C의 PL파장과 PL반치폭 데이터이다. PL파장은 A, B, C 시료 각각 1504 nm, 1571 nm, 1702 nm이며 반치폭은 각각 140 meV, 140 meV, 150 meV이다. PL파장과 반치폭은 각각 3주기에서 6주기로 증가할 때 67 nm, 0 meV 6주기에서 9주기로 증가할 때는 131 nm, 10 meV 증가하였다. 다음 그림4는 양자점 성장시간을 조절하여 성장한 양자점 시료 D, E, F의 PL파장과 PL반치폭 데이터이다. PL파장은 D, E, F 시료 각각 1509 nm, 1556 nm, 1535 nm이며 반치폭은 각각 137 meV, 138 meV, 144 meV이다. PL파장과 반치폭은 각각 3주기에서 6주기로 증가할 때 47 nm, 1 meV 증가하였고, 6주기에서 9주기로 증가할 때는 21 nm 감소, 6 meV 증가하였다. 양자점 성장시간을 고정하여 다주기를 성장하였고 또 3주기마다 양자점 성장시간을 달리하여 다주기를 성장하였으며 PL을 이용해 광학적 특성을 연구하였다. 성장된 양자점의 PL 파장과 PL 반치폭 변화를 통해 적층구조에서 성장 주기가 늘어날수록 양자점의 크기가 증가하는 것을 확인하였고 또한 적층성장을 할 때 양자점 성장시간을 줄임으로써 양자점의 크기 변화를 제어 할 수 있었다.

  • Efficacious wastewater treatment is essential for increasing sewage sludge volume and implementing strict environmental regulations. The operation cost of sludge treatment amounts up to 50% of the total costs for wastewater treatment plants, therefore, an economical sludge destruction method is crucially needed. Amid several destruction methods, wet air oxidation (WAO) can efficiently treat wastewater containing organic pollutants. It can be used not only for sludge destruction but also for useful by-product production. Volatile fatty acids (VFAs), one of many byproducts, is considered to be an important precursor of biofuel and chemical materials. Its high reaction condition has instituted the study of gravity pressure reactor (GPR) for an economical process of WAO to reduce operation cost. Simulation of subcritical condition was conducted using Aspen Plus with predictive Soave-Redlich-Kwong (PSRK) equation of state. Conjointly, simulation analysis for GPR depth, oxidizer type, sludge flow rate and oxidizer injection position was carried out. At GPR depth of 1000m and flow rate of 2 ton/h, the conversion and yield of VFAs were 92.02% and 0.17g/g, respectively.

  • 1,3-Dioxolane is an exciting material that has attracted widespread interest in the chemical, paint, and pharmaceutical industries as a solvent, electrolyte, and reagent because 1,3-dioxolane is not toxic, carcinogenic, explosive, auto-flammable, and multifunctional, and due to their excellent miscibility in most organic and aqueous solvent conditions. Recently, this material has received increasing attention as a CO2-selective polymer precursor to separating CO2 from flue gas and natural gas mixtures. Poly(1,3-dioxolane) (PDXL) possesses higher ether oxygen content than polyethylene oxide (PEO), which demonstrates superior membrane CO2/N2 separation properties owing to their polar ether oxygen groups exhibiting strong affinity toward CO2. Thus, PDXL-based membranes displayed an outstanding CO2 solubility selectivity over non-polar (N2, H2, and CH4) gases. However, the polar groups of PDXL, like PEO, promote chain packing efficiency and cause polymer crystallization, thereby reducing its gas permeability, which should be improved. In this short review, we discuss the recent advancement and limitations of PDXL membranes in gas separation applications. To conclude, we provide future perspectives for inhibiting the limits of 1,3-dioxolane-based polymers in the CO2 separation process.

  • Purpose: $[^{18}F]$Fallypride plays an effective radiotracer for the study of dopamine $D_2/D_3$ receptor occupancy, neuropsychiatric disorders and aging in humans. This tracer has the potential for clinical use, but automated labeling efficiency showed low radiochemical yields about 5~20% with relatively long labelling time of fluorine-18. In present study, we describe an improved automatic synthesis of [$^{18}F$]Fallypride using different base concentration for routine clinical use. Materials and Methods: Fully automated synthetic process of [$^{18}F$]Fallypride was perform using the TracerLab $FX_{FN}$ synthesizer under various labeling conditions and tosyl-fallypride was used as a precursor. [$^{18}F$]Fluoride was extracted with various concentration of $K_{2.2.2.}/K_2CO_3$ from $^{18}O$-enriched water trapped on the ion exchange cartridge. After azeotropic drying, the labeling reaction proceeded in $CH_3CN$ at $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 or 30 min. The reaction mixture was purified by reverse phase HPLC and collected organic solution was exchanged by tc-18 Sep-Pak for the clinically available solution. Results: The optimal labeling condition of [$^{18}F$]Fallypride in the automatic production was that 2 mg of tosyl-fallypride in acetonitrile (1 mL) was incubated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 10 min with $K_{2.2.2.}/K_2CO_3$ (11/0.8 mg). [$^{18}F$]Fallypride was obtained with high radiochemical yield about $66{\pm}1.4%$ (decay-corrected, n=28) within $51{\pm}1.2$ min including HPLC purification and solid-phase purification for the final formulation. Conclusion: [$^{18}F$]Fallypride was prepared with a significantly improved radiochemical yield with high specific activity and shorten synthetic time. In addition, this automated procedure provides the high reproducibility with no synthesis failures (n=28).
